Actually, in her heart, she had forgiven him a little bit more.
Roger raised his head, and said calmly, "The situation of the upcoming battle is unpredictable. I only hope that Your Majesty will not make a decision to sacrifice yourself when there are other options."
"...Why would I deliberately do such a thing? Do you really think you are that important?"
She suddenly felt embarrassed and annoyed, raising her head to stare at him resentfully, "Any decision I make is only for the benefit of the Empire. Whether I live or die, it has nothing to do with you, understand?"
"Understood, understood..." Roger responded repeatedly, knowing that she was just being tsundere and getting agitated, and quickly tried to appease her.
"You... you two-faced bastard, hurry up and talk about serious matters. I don't need you to do psychological counseling for me."
The Eternal Night Empress threw a fireball at Roger irritably, which exploded on his clothes, leaving a black mark.
For her, who had the ability to read minds, Roger's attitude was not soothing at all, but would only provoke her even more.
She came to Roger, of course, not just to entrust the future, but also because there was a lot of information and decisions that could only be exchanged between the two of them, and they needed to discuss and reach a conclusion.
As for emotional issues, she never expected to talk about that aspect at all. It was entirely because Roger was too annoying that she couldn't help but pay attention to him.
Roger observed her expression, confirming that she was not making excuses, but really still had endless concerns about the future of the Empire, and would not sacrifice herself just because of a slight setback in the war situation, nor would she dwell on the topic just now.
Being able to chat face-to-face like this, even if there was a risk of arguing at any time, was still a gain...
The Eternal Night Empress was already annoyed, and he was still weighing the pros and cons in his mind, which made her even more annoyed.
Some inner thoughts are really better left unheard!
This kind of feeling of clearly scolding someone, standing on the moral high ground and frantically outputting, and then actually feeling like she was taken advantage of, was simply terrible.
It could only be said that this guy was shameless and invincible!
"I'm very busy, hurry up and talk about the decision to actively advance, don't dawdle there!"
She could only keep urging, so that Roger's wandering thoughts would return to the normal direction.
......
......
While the Green Vine Empire was amazed by the intense reaction given by the Six Gods, the Six Gods themselves were not calm, and there was a small division regarding the future path.
The decision of 'no destruction, no construction' must have been made by the God of Knowledge, and provided corresponding technical support, using a complete set of methods to turn the Green Vine Empire's subsequent battles into a void.
Of course, sacrificing existing believers to avoid the risk of betrayal, and replacing the current means of obtaining faith with God-chanting Worms, was an unprecedented feat even for the Six Gods.
Even with their long lives, they had never dared to imagine that such an operation would exist. The God of Knowledge dared to make such an astonishing move, shocking them with his ruthlessness.
Afterwards, they were busy for a long time completing a series of operations such as killing, sacrificing, and hatching God-chanting Worms, and they were physically and mentally exhausted.
The consumption of the power of faith in this process was also an astronomical figure, and they strived to launch it simultaneously to avoid the docile churches from launching a counterattack under the threat of death, which successfully completed the God of Knowledge's plan.
Gods are truly professional at deceiving believers.
From shamelessly writing various deceptive doctrines in the past, to promising futures that would never be fulfilled, to now slaughtering all the believers in the native world in one fell swoop, these executioners of the Six Gods camp did not have any remorse or unbearable feelings for their evil deeds.
What they were thinking about was only how much less faith they would earn next, and whether this operation could really plunge the Green Vine Empire into despair.
After all, after the God of Knowledge made this move, both sides of the confrontation were suffering damage.
Slaughtering all civilizations in over half of the universe's worlds was a desperate plan that even Thanos couldn't do, in order to reduce the maintenance costs of their own churches, and at the same time not send combat power to the enemy.
Of course, such a move was also equivalent to simultaneously blocking the war potential of both sides, in exchange for their own security, to avoid being stolen at home by mortals.
Although God-chanting Worms are a great substitute for believers, the efficiency of obtaining faith is closely related to the degree of piety, the complexity of thinking, and the strength and persistence of desires.
In this regard, the efficiency of obtaining faith and the level of civilization are originally a paradox.
In order to obtain more faith, gods need intelligent beings with high civilization;
But intelligent beings with high civilization will have their own understanding of the world, have more needs, and it is more difficult to give birth to devout and even crazy faith, so the contribution of faith has a limit.
Just like the plane management methods that Nalineer has been exploring, the fundamental problem is that these two attributes are like a seesaw, going back and forth, and there is no perfect solution.
In the end, Nalineer had to admit that allowing believers to be happy is not the meaning of the existence of gods. As long as their need to squeeze faith exists, there will inevitably be conflicts with mortals.
The aristocratic and church ruling system that almost all gods are using now, regularly guiding wars and conflicts, is really not that gods intentionally let believers live such a life, but that they have explored the most efficient way to obtain faith through continuous practice.
The church and the nobles automatically seek balance to complete the gods' instructions, so the entire universe begins to be the same, with the ancient rules that the Green Vine Empire saw and disliked, which is also the most common appearance of this universe's material plane after the intervention of the Six Gods.
Of course, after the God King wanted to break the box, there was actually another appearance of the material plane, that is, it was directly refined into a void.
That was in order to break the spatial structure of this cube-like multiverse, wanting to open the box that was blocking them by collapsing more and more planes, and see the world outside.
The method that the gods are executing now is the smallest destructive method calculated by the God of Knowledge after observing the entire multiverse.
It's like pinpoint blasting, only destroying the necessary load-bearing structures, bringing the collapse of the entire universe.
This is a risky move, and the consequences will be seeing a new world outside the universe, or the God King may smash himself to death in the collapsed box.
But he still chose to continue moving forward, exploring the unknown, wanting to see the scenery that they normally can't see here, the scenery that they are restricted from.
It is also thanks to their accumulated rich practical experience in turning planes into nothingness, so they can have such high efficiency in slaughtering believers, and can almost simultaneously complete the extermination of mortals in thousands of planes.
Because this step is just lower-power nothingness, retaining the material, but slaughtering beings with soul attributes.
After the completion, the entire universe was much quieter and much more monotonous.
Although the beautiful music will still sound in Sylvie's kingdom of God, it is all the performance of the Holy Spirits, and there will be no new works contributed by mortals.
The Holy Spirits and angels have no creativity. Their power is God-given, and they are unadulterated tools without self-awareness.
And without emotions, without self-awareness, how can there be creativity, and how can they create excellent and beautiful new music?
Although the five gods obeyed the God of Knowledge's orders because of the God King's will, they still had a lot of complaints in their hearts about the series of operations of killing all the old believers.
Especially later, when they found that the efficiency of obtaining faith was so slow that it made their teeth ache, and the losses could not be replenished at all, they felt even more uncomfortable.
Because they didn't understand the God of Knowledge's intentions, the core goal was to break this box, just defeat the mortals, occupy the universe, and complete the pinpoint blasting.
What the world will look like after the blasting is still unknown, accumulating the power of faith may be completely ineffective, and if everyone is directly smashed to death, it will be even more meaningless.
Why is the God King so generous in taking out all his accumulation as a bargaining chip to attract other gods to work hard?
That's naturally because the future path is already determined in his eyes, and he can see farther than these other gods.
So the God of Knowledge blasted away the believers without any heartache, but the other five gods who were still kept in the dark had their hearts bleeding every time they thought about it.
Especially after blasting away the believers, the harvest of the power of faith was insufficient, and they still had to fight to the death with the Tianming Army, and had to find a way to break through the God-Slaying Fortress. All kinds of actions brought about were all astronomical expenditures, and every day was a pure loss!
If this continues, even the landlord's family will have no surplus food!
Although everyone knew that this battle would not be easy, they did not expect it to be so difficult.
After discussing, everyone found the God of Knowledge, believing that they could not continue like this, and the most serious problem was the believers.
"We can slightly relax the ability restrictions of the God-chanting Worms, so that they have higher intelligence and can engage in more complex prayer activities, so that we can harvest a lot more power of faith."
Sylvie cautiously gave her own suggestion.
The God of Knowledge directly rejected: "Increasing intelligence will inevitably bring emotions, bring needs, bring their desire for freedom, so that there is a possibility of being used by mortals, which is not conducive to the initiative that we have worked so hard to create."
"Amnesther!"
The God of Nature roared. She was saying that if this continues, there is no need to talk about being proactive or not, they will be drained by this war first.
The God of Knowledge revealed a森然smile: "Don't have such unnecessary worries, this situation will not last too long, Father God will immediately carry out the next action."
Their direct slaughter of believers was to block the possibility of the Green Vine Empire disintegrating them from the inside, but it was also killing the chicken to get the eggs, instantly obtaining a large amount of the power of faith through sacrifice.
But this part of the power of faith disappeared on the accounts that the five gods could see, and now the God of Knowledge finally gave them the answer.
The power of faith obtained in this wave, plus the accumulation of the past, is all handed over to the God King as ammunition.
Their actions here, no matter how fierce, are just the atmosphere group to confuse those mortals. The real trump card is completed by the God King.
The God of Knowledge looked towards the endless void, his eyes sharp, as if to pierce the sharp blade at the end of the universe.
This war is about to have a result.
Chapter 274 Natural Selection Front
Eternal Night World, Green Vine Empire.
After the Eternal Night Empress returned from the God-Slaying Fortress, she summoned the monarchs of the main forces in this world.
Through the Dauntless Space virtual online, also attending the meeting were the leaders of the forces that had joined the God-Burial Labyrinth system, confirmed to be standing on the side of the Green Vine Empire, and dared to stand with the gods until the end.
Some were the Sons of the System cultivated by the Empire, and some were strong people who had always been unwilling to accept the exploitation of the gods.
They originally fought separately, scattered in different planes, doing their best to resist the gods' control of their world, and then came into contact with the olive branch extended by the Green Vine Empire.
The heroic feat of beheading Taibella was the Green Vine Empire verifying the power of the weapons they had mastered, and also showing their muscles to these forces, proving that their existence was enough to become the core for leading you to continue resisting.
Otherwise, the differences brought about by different worlds, different races, and different cultures would make it difficult for the Green Vine Empire's will to be implemented on the side of mortals.
Even if facing a common enemy, everyone is theoretically friends, but if it is not a strong enough leader, who will obey whom?
Everyone in their own world is like the pride of heaven, and not something that the majesty of a king can easily subdue and bow down to.
There must be a truly excellent record, such as killing a god with powerful divine power.
From the perspective of gaining enough reputation, Taibella also had to die, and the Empire could not start the next action without death.
So not only exposing their existence in the eyes of the gods, but also the Green Vine Empire, which used to hide behind the scenes in the name of the system, finally emerged on the surface among the forces resisting the gods, and proved its strength, gaining unprecedentedly powerful leadership reputation.
The smooth development of the Tianming Army is also backed by the Green Vine Empire, extending its tentacles to more planes, knowing that they are a powerful force capable of truly slaying gods.
It is precisely because the combat power of these mortal forces is gathered together, the resources that can be controlled are concentrated together, and various means are used to develop the great cause of resisting gods vigorously, and the beautiful future has seen hope...
Then the unprecedented super massacre guided by the gods broke out.
Just like nuclear weapons blooming for the first time in two cities, the terrifying casualties accelerated the evil country's abandonment of resistance. At this moment, the power and ruthlessness shown by the gods actually also have unimaginable deterrent power.
On the Empire's side, because they personally killed Taibella, there is no turning back. They are just thinking that future battles will definitely become more and more difficult, and many of their previous arrangements have lost their effect.
But many of the other forces that followed the Empire's footsteps, many of whom had just joined the God-Burial Labyrinth, saw the gods' methods, and even had the idea of surrendering.
So after the Eternal Night Empress stabilized the morale of the God-Slaying Fortress, knowing that they could still resist and buy enough time for their rear, she immediately summoned the forces that she could contact, or were still willing to act with the Empire. Everyone must have a unified opinion.
"I hope to understand that this is a war with no possibility of negotiation."
Going straight to the point, the Eternal Night Empress expressed the Green Vine Empire's firm attitude, bearing the gazes containing various emotions.
"Your Majesty the Eternal Night Empress, we want to know, why are you determined not to accept the faith of the gods? Is it because of some childhood shadows?"
An emperor from a powerful elven kingdom in another plane asked loudly.
Under the traditional customs of the elven female supremacy, his ability to become the highest political leader is definitely an anomaly, which may also be why he is incompatible with the God of Nature and chose to stand on the side of the Green Vine Empire.
The impulse driven by sexism might start strong, but it can't last. After witnessing the power of the gods, a sense of fear arose in his heart.
Although he felt indignant and upset, sacrificing his own life to make the world a better place was definitely not a good deal.
Of course, he also understood that even if he surrendered, the gods probably wouldn't accept him; they would just be happy to have another offering. So, he came to this meeting hoping to persuade more allies. If everyone worked together, perhaps they could get better bargaining chips from the gods.
The Eternal Night Empress immediately showed a firm will to resist, and he felt this was his opportunity to find potential allies.
He believed that under such coercion, he was not the only one who had second thoughts. However, given the current situation, figuring out how to withdraw was a significant problem.
The Eternal Night Empress immediately glared at him with eyes like knives. This emperor, who was used to having the final say in her own country, felt an unbearable pressure, and all the accusatory questions he had wanted to ask remained unspoken.
"In my childhood, thanks to my father, I was a devout believer. Initially, I only banned proselytizing to give my people a better life. Now, the conclusion that we cannot surrender is because those gods simply do not want to have any negotiations with us!"
A representative from an ancient arcane kingdom stood up: "Your Majesty, the gods rely on faith as their source. If they want to exist for a long time, they must depend on us..."
"What if they don't want to exist for a long time at all?"
The Eternal Night Empress interrupted the old mage, projecting a huge, slowly moving Rubik's Cube behind her.
Those with some knowledge of spatial theory knew that this was the multiverse in which they lived, projected into a three-dimensional structure that ordinary people could understand, resulting in a conceptual diagram.
"Although this is not the true appearance of space, it can reflect many problems. We've marked the planes that the gods have reduced to nothingness..."
The Eternal Night Empress snapped her fingers, and the Rubik's Cube changed, showing the planes that had been reduced to nothingness.
It seemed irregular, but she snapped her fingers again, adding the planes that the Seven Gods had actively attacked before, and then the attack routes that the Eternal Night Empress had predicted...
"They want to destroy this universe!"
Immediately, a mage shouted out in disbelief.
Even the slowest person could see that the different colored blocks, when stacked together, would destroy the basic structure that maintained the Rubik's Cube's form, connecting into a line of destruction that undermined its support.
"Yes, they don't want to exist for a long time at all, but want to break the constraints of this universe, completely without thinking about the future... In that case, the value of mortals providing the power of faith for a long time is reduced to the lowest level. We have no bargaining chips for negotiation."
The Eternal Night Empress's chilling voice echoed in the meeting, and whether they were physically present or only in the virtual venue through the fearless space, the representatives felt a chill down their spines.
