I am the one running the game

Chapter 955 You are the protagonist, why were you captured?

The part of the evil god in the steam engine made Lu Xingshi's research progress advance by leaps and bounds, and even the progress in analyzing the priesthood inspiration and treasures was improved.

All I can say is that the world is indeed a huge makeshift team.

The evil god, the Voice of All Things, was whitewashed and joined the world. The world, based on the evil god structure of the Voice of All Things, created the gods and priesthood of a new era.

Therefore, the original priesthood of natural phenomena was completely replaced by the priesthood of civilization concepts.

The reason for this change is naturally because the former evil creature, the Voice of All Things, interacted with the interstellar civilization. This interaction settled into the body of the evil creature, and eventually sublimated after it became an evil god, and was captured by the world again.

This is how the extraordinary soldier system and the new god system came into being.

With this convenience, Lu Xingshi was able to analyze quickly.

But this also brings up another problem, that is, since the new god is an image of civilization, why does the world want to destroy the humans who have been assimilated?

You can't be planning to evolve again, right?
It is not impossible to do so, but the cost will be very high, both in terms of material cost and time cost, which will be difficult to handle.

Of course, once the costs are paid, there are also benefits.

That is, the new life is the absolute direct descendant of the world, unlike the current fantasy human race, which is assimilated.

"I think I was wrong."

Lu Xingshi looked at the data of the evil god and suddenly realized one thing, that is, Edward can be equal to the evil god, the sound of all things, but the evil god, the sound of all things may not be equal to Edward.

Just like the Four Saints of Qianyuan in the past, they were essentially just one person, and the other three saints were just tools used by Yuanshi Tianwang to achieve his own goals.

"Edward's priesthood is order, which is the top priesthood that represents the world."

"But it is definitely not the top priesthood. There are higher priesthoods above it that include the priesthood of civilization concepts."

"Like civilization."

If it is really as Lu Xingshi guessed, Edward is just a stepping stone for Him. Once successful, the Evil God, the Voice of All Things, will definitely be a heavenly-level existence.

After that, it will be much simpler. Cooperate with the world to recreate the former alien race, completely destroy humanity, and inherit the technology of interstellar civilization.

A new civilization of gods with fantasy and science fiction will be born.

It is somewhat similar to the Yan State in Lu Xingshi's time.

"Another person who is similar to someone who has opened up a path for all living beings to provide for themselves."

"Fortunately, my path is still based on the old gods. Otherwise, if I really chose the new gods, I would be screwed."

"The gods of the past will be liquidated, and the new gods will be subordinate to the one true God."

"For such a big plot, it is only natural that it is this difficult now."

"Then should I... stop the other party?" Lu Xingshi thought of this.

As long as it succeeds, Lu Xingshi will have no advantage at all.

The Evil God, the Voice of All Things is now in a favorable position in the late stage. If he succeeds, he will be the overwhelming force and will not tolerate any resistance from others.

Therefore, Lu Xingshi’s first thought was to prevent the other party from succeeding, so as to reduce the difficulty of devouring the real body when it arrived in the future.

There were many plans in his mind, but every one of them was rejected by him.

The enemy is sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai, and it is difficult to even shake him up, let alone make him fall from a winning situation.

"Unless, you use your own spear to attack your own shield!" Lu Xingshi couldn't help but smile.

If you want to stop the success of the evil god, the Voice of All Things, I'm afraid only the former evil creature, the Voice of All Things, can do it.

"Edward and the Star Alliance, plus part of the evil object in my hand."

“All three are indispensable.”

"But if I succeed, the evil god, the Voice of All Things, will definitely come to the rescue personally."

After success, the situation will turn into a three-way fight between evil gods, evil creatures and humans.

No matter whether it is an evil god or an evil creature, as long as one appears, the Star Alliance will change direction immediately and form an alliance with the fantasy human race, provided that there are still living fantasy humans.

Even the world will be confused because this was not planned at all.

"So timing is very important. I must become a new type of god that is out of range when the evil creatures return, otherwise I will not be able to protect myself."

Otherwise, even if he succeeds, he will die.

It is possible that you will die at the hands of an evil god or an evil creature, or even at the hands of the world.

"I hate this situation the most." Lu Xingshi likes to play crushing games, games with favorable winds, and games that bully weak opponents. He doesn't like challenging difficulties at all.

Unfortunately, difficulties will not disappear just because Lu Xingshi says no.

After some trouble, Lu Xingshi separated all the remnants of the evil god on the steam engine.

The flesh and blood growing on the machine began to wither, and the roar of steam gradually stopped.

The steam engine, a magical weapon created by the remnants of the evil god, has turned into scrap metal and can no longer produce extraordinary soldiers.

Fortunately, the impact is not great, after all, there is no place where the steam engine can be used.

If the interstellar civilization had not attacked, the impact on the Orei Empire caused by Lu Xingshi's actions would have been an astronomical loss.

After sealing it, as soon as he left, he met Gato who was waiting outside. He looked anxious, but because Lu Xingshi was busy, he could only rush around outside like an ant on a hot pot. "What's the matter?" Lu Xingshi asked.

"Edward was captured, and the Space Fortress fell into the hands of the Star Alliance."

"They are preparing a public execution to lure you out to rescue him," said Cato.

"Failed? What happened?" Lu Xingshi was extremely puzzled. Aren't you the protagonist? How could you lose?

"It's not very clear. There was a projection just now." Gato said.

Upon hearing this, Lu Xingshi proposed a hypothesis: "Is it possible that this is a projection image synthesized by AI?"

"With the Star Alliance's technology, it's actually not that difficult to make it."

"On the contrary, if Edward succeeds, they will be at their wits' end and choose to lure me away and use you as hostages."

"You know what the consequences will be," Lu Xingshi said bluntly.

Cato nodded and said, "I have considered this situation, just in case it is true."

"Edward is blessed by fate and has three divine dragons. Once he dies, it will be extremely difficult for you, the Grand Duke, to hold on even if you can."

Lu Xingshi understood what he meant. He just wanted Lu Xingshi to find a way to confirm the authenticity.

If Edward was really captured, we could only ask Lu Xingshi to rescue him.

"What about the time and place of the execution?" Lu Xingshi didn't really want to get involved. Edward might not die. After all, there was still the Sound of All Things.

But he needed Edward now to become part of the Unholy Thing, the Voice of All Things, so he couldn't take the risk.

"Five days later, in the Black Hole Shelter." Cato replied briefly, "They must have set a trap, waiting for you to enter."

"So, Grand Duke, you'd better disguise yourself and go in."

Lu Xingshi was able to kill the mechanic, and his strength was beyond doubt, but this time he was going directly to the enemy's lair. Whether in terms of military strength or strength, he was not comparable to the number that besieged the imperial capital before.

"Don't worry, I am sure about this matter." Lu Xingshi did not take the strength of the Star Alliance seriously. He was not an ordinary demigod, but a double demigod, which was equivalent to the fantasy level of a half-step god who had reached the peak of the ninth transformation.

Traditional demigods are no match for him.

"But after I leave, the safety of the imperial capital cannot be guaranteed, even if I can leave some protective measures." Lu Xingshi was sure that if Edward was really captured, the imperial capital would be razed to the ground as soon as he left.

Being captured is a lie. The Imperial Capital still has value. The Star Alliance will only use it as a hostage.

If it's true, then there wouldn't be so much trouble and twists and turns. Just kill him and be done with it.

There are only two threats in total. The smaller one should be captured and used as bait to attract the bigger threat, then killed.

The great threat has fallen into the trap again, and as soon as it arrives, it will have to face the most powerful military attack of the Star Alliance. If it cannot be killed, then they will have no other choice.

"Don't worry, we will try to delay as much as possible." Cato knew what the result would be.

The current situation means the empire will die sooner or later.

It is very uncomfortable to be half dead, so it is better to be free as soon as possible.

As for the opinions of the imperial high-ranking officials? There are no so-called imperial high-ranking officials anymore. Most of them have died in the war. The only person who can make decisions is Gato.

...

Edward and the president sat face to face in an interrogation room. He had a supernatural suppressor on his hand, which made it impossible for him to mobilize any fighting spirit, witchcraft, or the power of the divine dragon.

High concentrations of energy inertness and weakness potions were injected into his body, so he is now almost like an ordinary person.

"We won, kid," the president said as soon as he opened his mouth.

Edward smiled when he heard this: "Grand Duke Lanton is still alive, you haven't won yet."

"Really? I think he will come to rescue you." The president said, then stood up and left.

Edward was very calm about what the other party said, but he actually felt extremely bitter in his heart.

His previous gamble on his life was successful, but it was not completely successful.

He survived, but was captured by the president and the teacher, and ended up like this.

He also knew the other party's purpose in not killing him. Due to the difference in strength, he was captured alive without any chance to resist.

"Luck, luck..."

Now Edward can only hope that fate will favor him.

"You're not omnipotent." Edward sighed. Although he had high hopes, he also understood one thing: when the gap in strength between the two sides was too great, luck could not make up for it.

Not only was he restricted, but the room he was in was also confined. There were a large number of extraordinary people guarding outside the door and countless interstellar weapons aimed at him.

Even the finance minister who was called the teacher and the strongest psychic in the Star Alliance served as his door security.

In this situation, he had no chance of escape.

"I hope that Grand Duke Lanton will be more reasonable and not come to rescue me."

'Otherwise there will be no chance. ' Edward thought silently.
