Great, I'm surrounded by villains.

Chapter 461 Epilogue (Part )

This is the tenth year since the Sun King returned.

Early in the morning, a starship slowly sailed into the Blue Star Dynasty's central star port. The third prince... or should we say the current ruler personally welcomed the visitor.

Inquisitor Baptist represented the Embers Church on this visit, which was her ninth visit to Blue Star.

The residents of Chaozhong were waiting outside the star port before dawn and extended a warm welcome to this old friend from the Blue Star.

At this time, Jinli had already reached the age of a graceful young lady. Sitting in the special car prepared for her by the court, she smiled back through the car window at the Blue Star residents who were welcoming her on both sides of the road.

This is an extremely important day for Blue Star.

A statue was erected in the square outside the royal court to commemorate the pioneer Mr. Duan Mingyuan.

In the war with the Void Demon, facing an extremely unfavorable situation, this pioneer decided to sacrifice himself and sealed the road connecting the two planes, isolating the Void Demon forever in the land of eternal night.

Today marks the tenth anniversary of humanity’s victory over the Void Demons. Blue Star played an indispensable role in this war.

After the Third Prince ascended the throne, he carried out drastic reforms. He advocated the idea of ​​combining politics and religion. Now Blue Star has become the most trusted ally of the Church of Embers.

There were many familiar faces participating in this celebration.

For example, the new leaders of the Imperial Hunting Court, Yang Ping and Linglong, their names have spread throughout the streets and alleys in the past ten years, making the concepts of evil and life energy deeply rooted in people's hearts. The people of Blue Star have also regained their freedom. Driven by a series of policies, life energy courses have been incorporated into various colleges and universities.

Hundreds of years later, the people of Blue Star were finally able to freely embrace their instincts, and Yunhai Academy became Blue Star's premier institution of higher learning. Every year, countless students tried their best to become a member of Yunhai Academy.

Unfortunately, the old dean Mo Song did not get to see such a thriving scene.

In the second year of the Third Prince's reign, on a sunny morning, the old dean took a nap leaning on the chair in the dean's office as usual, and never woke up again.

With the passage of time, the older generation of deans gradually withdrew from the stage of history. Ten years later, Princess Ning Ruyue became the new dean, and her fellow disciples who grew up with her also took over the baton passed down by their teacher.

Compared with the power struggles in the court and the complicated interstellar situation after the return of the Sun King, the eldest princess prefers the peaceful life in the academy, where she has found her own home.

The anecdotes of the Five Heroes of Yunhai were widely circulated among the academies. The students were influenced by the turbulent events of ten years ago, which made them full of ambition.

The only pity is that the teachers of "Defense against Evil Spirits" and "Magical Monsters Course" have been changed several times. When they occasionally chat with the teachers in the academy, they will hear them reminiscing about the days when they had Teacher Mingyuan and Teacher Jiuyue.

The hero who helped humans seal the void demon, once taught at this academy and was the founder of this and that course.

Before we knew it, the church car had gone some distance and the crowd gradually dispersed.

Jinli leaned against the car window somewhat tiredly, looking at the familiar scenery outside the road.

The eyeball robot floated to the third prince in high spirits, and the third prince picked up the eyeball robot.

So many things have happened in the past ten years that it is hard to keep up. Even he often wonders if the pace of change on Blue Planet is too fast.

But every time this happens, he remembers that he is on the right path.

Under the leadership of the Sun King, mankind united as never before, completely breaking down the differences in identity, ethnicity, and position, and becoming a common collective. By eliminating wars and intrigues, mankind ushered in an unprecedented speed of development.

Over the past decade, the speed of human progress in science and technology, culture and other fields has been astonishing.

The Sun King fulfilled his promise to everyone and gave them a world without hatred, without prejudice, where people could truly understand each other.

Of course, there are some things that haven't changed.

For example, the baptism eye robot.

Ten years later, the robot is still the same style as it was back then. Although the field of robotics is changing with each passing day, they have already created lighter and easier-to-carry styles, and can even directly implant voice-generating devices into the robot, but they were all rejected by the "conservative" robot.

At times like this, Jinli would half-jokingly say with the eyeball robot that it was an antique left over from before the "Eternal Night War", and that she planned to pass the eyeball robot on as a family heirloom to her next generation.

"Eternal Night War" is the name given by the Church of Embers, and it was written into the new "Genesis".

With the return of the Sun King, Genesis was divided into the Old Chapter and the New Chapter.

"How is the situation in the Holy City?"

"Same old thing."

The familiar mechanical synthesized sound always calms the Third Prince down.

He would personally welcome Jin Li every time he arrived. Jin Li was more like a friend to him than an envoy of the Embers Church. But now, the legendary Fortress had long become history, and everyone's schedule was full. Only Tang Qianqian seemed to have a premonition of this. On the first day of returning to Blue Star, she left a message for them saying "Lihua and I are going on vacation" and she was never seen again.

"Where's Sister Jiuyue?"

Baptism suddenly asked.

This wasn't the first time she'd asked this, but every time she was met with an awkward silence.

Since the "Eternal Night War", Jiu Yue's whereabouts have been unknown. She and the Third Prince have used all their resources to search for her many times, but to no avail.

Of course, the church does this for safety reasons.

They learned that fox demons are a group dominated by emotions, which gave Jiu Yue enough motivation to break the seal of the Land of Eternal Night, which would bring hidden dangers to this unprecedented era of peace and prosperity.

"I thought she would definitely attend the tenth anniversary celebration."

After all, praising the pioneers is an important part of the celebration.

Baptism sincerely hopes that September, like everyone else, can break free from the shadow of the past and take a closer look at this new era full of hope.

"I believe her."

The Third Prince said, "She is not dangerous, she is just not ready yet."

……

At the same time, the Sun King, who was far away in the Holy City Cathedral, received a briefing from Blue Star. Half an hour ago, the Baptism Starship had arrived at Chaozhong Star Port, and now she was taking a special car to the royal court to attend the tenth anniversary celebration of the victory of the war.

He still sits on the golden throne and has not left for the past ten years.

Yet He is not imprisoned here; His will is everywhere.

During these ten years, He witnessed the changes on countless planets and became the force that pushed humanity forward.

This is also a special day for Him.

He can stop temporarily to solve his own problems.

The body sitting on the throne had already died. Although His energy was immense, it was burning at an alarming rate every moment.

He needed a new body.

And the answer He wants is hidden on the blue planet.

There is still life energy waiting to be cultivated there. The Sun King... no, in the past he had found the answer on that distant planet. Perhaps now is the day for him to leave.

He looked at the murals around him. Since the end of the "Eternal Night War", there were many more contents on them - all about him.

However, since human society stabilized again, the murals have not been updated for a long time.

Every civilization and every society records its own history in their own way.

Perhaps, He should also leave a new prophecy for future generations.

God's prophecies will reveal the direction of destiny, and His vision is longer-term than that of humans, forcing Him to see what will happen thousands of years later.

He only needs to think, and his will will echo in the minds of his believers. There is no need to summon anyone, and the preacher will come before the Golden Throne.

After a moment, the door that had been closed for a long time was opened again.

A familiar figure walked down the spiral staircase and came in front of Him.

The visitor was carrying a bucket full of watercolors and a brush, and looked ready to do a big job.

The two just stared at each other, and time seemed to become nothing at this moment.

"What's the matter, Sun King?"

The visitor took the initiative to break the silence, "Go ahead, I'm listening."
