Chapter 977: The Giant God with Congenital Defects Can Only Be Used as a Power Bank

The research on the giant god was not going very smoothly, not because it was too complicated, but because it was in an incomplete state.

The complete structure should be the Magic Device Ancestor God + Son of the Stars + Sky Demon Empire + Magic Device Clan, but this guy swallowed it whole and did not eat the last two completely, resulting in its own incompleteness.

Of course, it was too late by then, after all, the giant god was afraid of the human guardian.

This resulted in the fact that although He succeeded, He was able to suppress the backlash of His incomplete state by relying on His own disabled divine power.

Lu Xingshi also knew about the giant god's priesthood, and he had to say that the other party really dared to gamble.

Its priesthood is civilization, but it is currently in an incomplete state, as about two-thirds of it is in the hands of the Agent of Order.

Only one third of the giant's body remains.

Fortunately, the main duty of the Order Agent is order rather than civilization, otherwise the giant god would definitely not succeed.

But this cannot be considered a success. If he had succeeded, the giant god would not have been beaten into this state by the Agent of Order.

At least I still have some strength to resist.

As for Lu Xingshi, he didn't really covet the priesthood of civilization.

It is good and strong, but the data has been saved in the world's database. Although I have not completely broken off relations with the world, I am also in a state of opposition.

If you really want to take both into account, you will have an extra weakness.

It is better to just be the ancient one yourself.

The role of the giant god is much simpler. Although he has undergone several changes, he is ancient enough and can provide nourishment for himself.

He is a little weak, but Lu Xingshi is an ancient. The resources he needs to improve do not depend on natural resources or treasures, but on his degree of antiquity.

Therefore, the thousand years of time in a thousand-year-old ginseng can bring far more benefits to Lu Xingshi than its own medicinal value.

As for taking shortcuts by digging soil, stones and the like for food, this is also possible, but the quantity is small.

The reason is simple. Lu Xingshi's ancient power is not the rules of nature, but the rules of civilization.

The former can definitely become stronger by eating soil directly, and the latter can also do so, but the amount that can be extracted is small, and it is also easy to disrupt order and attract the attention of the world.

That's why Lu Xingshi didn't take any action. No matter how small a mosquito leg is, it's still a piece of meat. However, it's not worth getting beaten for this little piece of meat.

On the contrary, the antiquity of the Titan can be traced directly back to the days when he was an evil creature.

Even if the priesthood is incomplete, it will still be a rich source of nourishment after being swallowed.

So Lu Xingshi directly made the giant god into a portable power bank.

The giant god's consciousness was shattered by Lu Xingshi, so his current state should be considered a plant god.

Anyway, I have lost my instincts and will not respond no matter how the outside world stimulates me.

I can only wait quietly to be completely digested by Lu Xingshi.

After that, Lu Xingshi still used his own identity and began to live an ordinary life, waiting for the birth of the next person favored by destiny or the arrival of the real body, and then go there to make trouble.

What else can we do? We can't just let this world go.

He was just sitting there doing nothing anyway. If the Agent of Order could kill him, Lu Xingshi would have definitely stayed there quietly. Unfortunately, the Agent of Order couldn't kill him, which led to Lu Xingshi coming up with a new idea to cause trouble.

It's just that there are no good opportunities at the moment.

Since the end of that war, the Human Empire began a large-scale crackdown on the Sky Demons and the Magic Device Clan.

And fully accepted the heritage of the two ethnic groups.

However, these two tribes are also strong and are able to survive under such a severe siege.

The Kongmo clan is actually not that bad. After all, they have retained a complete civilization heritage, so they still have a certain amount of resistance. So they formed a resistance army and lived the life of sewer rats.

The magic device clan was in a miserable state, either becoming slaves or being killed.

At the same time, humans began to study the principles of activation of magic devices and further improved the Equal Contract.

The two technologies were innovated very quickly, and humans soon extracted a pseudo-fire source, which made Lu Xingshi suspect that there was help from the outside world.

In the area covered by the pseudo-fire source, there is a certain probability that the magic device can be activated, but it cannot obtain inheritance. It belongs to the ignorant creatures, and its intelligence is probably like that of cats and dogs.

The only thing is that the probability is a bit low. Only one magic device out of ten thousand can be activated.

And if the magic device is not activated when it is formed, it will just be a magic device and there will be no second chance.

In addition, the Equality Contract was gradually improved and turned into a Slave Contract. However, due to the fact that the Human Empire has been approaching modernization, such a straightforward name was changed to the Magic Contract.

Of course, the human empire did not remain unchanged during this disaster, and the era of giant companies came to an end.

The imperial government broke the monopoly of giant enterprises, gained control of a large number of magicians during the war and the crackdown, and used this as a basis to successfully get rid of the puppet state.

The giant companies gradually declined in the liquidation.

It's impossible not to decline, because the knife is on your neck, and you can't solve it just by disagreeing. As for those powerful magic device researchers, they did not leave the stage, but changed their appearance and became imperial officials.

Yes, it was the giant companies that went bankrupt, what did that have to do with the magic device researchers? They were still the ones standing at the top of the food chain.

They have power, knowledge and technology, and even the empire has to rely on them.

With another change in the system, society develops...for the better.

Because the empire now not only has magic devices, but also magic device life and space magic technology to improve productivity.

Without saying too much, at least the living standards of the middle and lower classes have been directly raised to a higher level because of this war.

In the final analysis, the Human Empire is the ultimate victor. Although it did not reap all the fruits of victory due to the actions of the Agents of Order, it still gained a lot of benefits.

If there is really no benefit at all and we become poorer the more we fight, then what is the difference between this and losing the war?

As for those who died, apart from their relatives and friends who would care and grieve, in the eyes of the top leaders of the entire empire, they were just a string of numbers and the nourishment of the empire.

"This life is really comfortable." Lu Xingshi stretched lazily.

After the empire was reborn, Lu Xingshi, an employee of the Universal Sky Enterprise, was directly converted to an imperial official. However, due to his strength, he could only be regarded as a village cadre, but he was still included in the establishment.

It is probably equivalent to a local police officer, who is in charge of the public security issues in the small mountain village.

His previous responsibilities were actually similar. This place was remote and quiet, and there were usually no security incidents. Even if there were, it would not be his turn to handle it, and other village cadres could handle it.

He is responsible for those extraordinary events.

So he would just sit there all day with a newspaper and a cup of strong tea, and then wait to get off work to eat in the cafeteria.

The days seemed boring, but he liked this kind of life.

There are many extraordinary people in the empire, so every village can have a magician in charge, but their strength is not certain.

According to the new mage professional standards issued by the empire, Lu Xingshi is considered a junior mage.

There are four more levels: intermediate, advanced, master, and grandmaster.

It's not just a division of strength, but also a division of professional titles. The higher the title, the higher the treatment you get in the empire.

In addition, the empire has broken the monopoly and opened up channels for advancement. For example, in addition to a fixed salary and normal welfare benefits every month, Lu Xingshi can also obtain magic devices and even magic contracts and magic lives through his own efforts.

With this effort, if you follow the rules, you will probably only be able to stay at the senior level until retirement, so that your pension will be a little higher.

The two higher professional title levels are not something that ordinary people can obtain through hard work.

At least you have to be brave enough to fight and fight hard, and you might lose everything if you are not careful.

Fortunately, currency purchases are also available. The spiritual floating cannon used by Lu Xingshi is a basic magic device, so all the spare parts and corresponding knowledge to upgrade the model can be purchased from the empire by yourself, and the price is relatively cheap.

According to Lu Xingshi's estimation, even with his current salary, he would be able to upgrade the spirit floating cannon to the highest model in about three years.

It’s not like before, when it was impossible to do it by giving up.

At first, Lu Xingshi thought that the empire was just making empty promises, but later he found that there were too many to handle.

According to news reports, these basic magic devices were confiscated from major corporations with the purpose of ushering in the era of warlords.

Although the giant companies previously had the power to use force to undermine the federation, in reality they were still disguised as chaebols, and most of them used commercial means and some shady methods to deal with things.

However, they are not willing to limit themselves to this and want to overthrow the human empire and become the masters themselves.

Unfortunately, they were unlucky and encountered a major change in the world. They were still in the stage of storing up grain and were wiped out.

If they had not cared about their face and started fighting directly, perhaps they would have had a chance to enter an era of warlords.

These things are not a big deal to Lu Xingshi. Without success, everything will be in vain.

However, Lu Xingshi was wondering why these magic devices of the giant enterprises did not turn into magical life?

This is very important. You must know that the ancestor of the magic device was a god.

Unless there are some unknown secrets here.

For example...creating gods!

Create a god controlled by giant corporations, rather than an emperor sitting above their heads.

If Lu Xingshi's guess is correct, then it can explain why such a large number of magic devices did not become magic device life, because there is a power of the same level protecting them.

The giant companies may not have created gods, but they definitely have some related technologies based on gods as templates.

But there is another problem here, that is, even Lu Xingshi cannot tell where they are conducting their research.

This is quite impressive. After all, with his strength, it is almost impossible to hide it from him, but they did it.
