Nobody knows how to be a villain better than me.

The ninth sequence, the ninefold mountains and rivers of China, the Great Qin.

The colossal object, made of jade and bronze, resembles a towering mountain peak suspended above Xianyang.

This is the Epang Palace, which His Majesty the Emperor of Qin devoted all his efforts to building.

It can cover more than 300 li of land and isolate the sun from the sky. There is a building every five steps and a pavilion every ten steps; the corridors are winding and the eaves are high; each embracing the terrain, they are interlocking and competing with each other.

Every brick and every tile is engraved with ancient tadpole-shaped divine patterns by skilled craftsmen, which are connected to form a continuous array. The gaps radiate light, and the runes flicker, like a jade palace where immortals reside.

The lifeblood that keeps this large institutional building running is mercury.

Mercury is used to represent all rivers, lakes, and seas, with mechanisms to circulate it. Above, there are celestial phenomena, and below, there are geographical features.

As the gates of Heaven opened, the First Emperor, dressed in black royal robes, stood atop the tower, gazing into the distance with a cold smile playing on his lips, his arm raised.

"Anyone who does not bow before me shall be punished by amputation!"

Instantly, the mercury inside the Epang Palace gathered and surged like snakes, forming a blade-shaped silvery-white liquid in front of Ying Zheng, which slashed forward with lightning speed.

Puff puff puff!

In an instant, one by one, the angels high above were severed from the knees down.

"These barbarians, who refuse to submit to the king's rule, have actually troubled me to take action personally. Then they shall kneel here forever!"

Standing proudly amidst the clouds, like a monarch descended from heaven, his narrow eyes were slightly narrowed, revealing a hint of mockery.

"Blasphemy! Blasphemy! Blasphemy!"

The radiant being roared in fury, raised its flaming sword high, and charged towards the mortal king.

"Hmph! To commit treason before the emperor is a crime punishable by being cut in half at the waist!"

The mercury light in front of Ying Zheng coalesced into a giant sword a hundred meters long. With a sweeping motion, the angels who had advanced and dared to challenge him were neatly cleaved in two at their waists. The etheric surge that erupted from it caused these radiant individuals to disintegrate and dissolve beneath the mercury giant sword.

"Lord, have mercy on this!"

The angels sang hymns of praise, and the torn body reformed, raising its arms once more, its swords aimed at this mortal king.

"You mere heretics and false gods, how dare you make such a racket! The one who destroyed Qin was Hu! How dare you speak of the Mandate of Heaven! You are utterly foolish! I will surely destroy your mountains and temples, and sentence you to death by a thousand cuts!"

The First Emperor's face turned cold and stern. The mercury behind him split into tens of thousands of tiny blades, which sliced ​​through the air and instantly reduced the hundred or so angels who rushed forward to basic spiritual particles.

Immediately, Zu Long roared coldly, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Where is the army?"

"How can I say that I have no clothes? I share the same robe with you. When the king raised an army, he repaired my sword and spear. I share the same enemy with you!"

Qi said without clothes?Tongze with the child.Master Wang Yuxing, repair my spear.Work with the son!

How can I say that I have no clothes? Wear the same clothes as your son. The king raised his troops and repaired my armor. Go with me! "

Inside Hangu Pass, the high-pitched Qin folk songs were sung in unison among the army clad in black armor, the Qin warriors, gathered like clouds, forming orderly square formations.

Whoosh whoosh!

In the blink of an eye, a series of powerful crossbows, including wheel crossbows, bed crossbows, machine crossbows, and box crossbows, as well as strong hardwood bows, were already strung and arrows were nocked, unleashing a dense rain of arrows at the false god in the sky.

Puff puff puff!

The dull thud of arrows piercing bodies was incessant.

Immediately afterwards, the wooden and stone mechanisms from the Lu Ban Book, the killing weapons of the Gongshu family, the twelve bronze statues of Xianyang, and the Qi practitioners from the mountains of China all made their appearances, giving this group of evil and false gods a "warm welcome".

Nine divine eras, nine civilizations—the essence nurtured on this planet Earth—unsheathes its claws and roars at the extraterrestrial enemy!

Chapter 236 That lewd face wasn't wasted

"[?]![?]![?]!"

In the Norse, Skadi, the goddess of winter, had charged too far and was surrounded by an army of angels. She drew lines in the air with her wand, solemnly chanting runes, while stomping her right foot hard.

Instantly, the frozen blizzard swept across the land, freezing the strangely shaped angels into solidified ice sculptures.

"Its source is light, its power is fire! Burn! Burn! Burn!"

Even though the angels' mouths were sealed, an invisible voice emanated from within them through strange vibrations, producing a magnificent and powerful cry.

In an instant, blazing white flames burst forth from the monsters' bodies, scorching the frost that bound them, and the outer crystal layers cracked one after another.

"boom!"

However, just as these radiant individuals were about to break free from their seal, a heavy thud came from the skeletal undead ship billowing black smoke in mid-air. A figure bent his knees to absorb the force and landed on the battlefield.

hum!

At the same time, the surrounding space opened up, shimmering with colorful vortexes of runes, connecting to a world shrouded in cold mist, where even the ether was frozen into ice-blue particles.

"The law of the world is that what prospers must perish; the sun will eventually set. What I long for is a snow-white landscape."

My vision is a beautiful world of death;

My hope is that all ugliness will be submerged, and that eternity will be frozen and solidified.

O frozen wasteland of death, heed my roar, and bestow upon this world a freeze of even colder desolation—the winds of Niflheim!

Accompanied by a cold, solemn murmur, a sudden surge of icy blue etheric energy erupted all around, and the radiant angels along the way were instantly shattered into dust as if cut by hundreds of millions of tiny ice blades.

So strong!

Skadi looked around at the white ground swept by the absolute zero icy wind, then turned to look at the graceful figure standing in front of her, exuding an aura that kept strangers at bay, and her expression slightly hardened.

"your eyes……"

"This?"

Holo conjured a crystal of ice between her fingers, examined her own icy blue eyes, yawned lazily as usual, thought for a moment, and then offered a casual explanation.

"I guess it's probably related to Ragnarok. We, Hela, and Samael, as calamity beasts, will activate our destiny characteristics in specific scenarios, and our divine power will reach a level that surpasses that of the gods. Otherwise, how could Loki's offspring destroy Odin and other old gods?"

In Samael's words, "It's called destiny is on my side; when the Nordic countries are down on their luck, we are destiny!"

This giant wolf from Norse mythology, hands on hips and chest puffed out, spoke with pride and a mischievous expression, admiring himself for a moment in the mirror made of frozen ice, and couldn't help but nod with pleasure.

Hmm, it's ice blue, looks pretty good.

The simple explanation immediately made Skadi understand why Holo's strength had increased so dramatically and why her physical characteristics had changed so much.

Holo's usual languid demeanor put the goddess of winter at ease, and her tense muscles relaxed slightly.

Fortunately, this change did not cause the calamity beast before them to lose its reason and emotions.

"Hey, what kind of look is that? Even if you don't trust us, you should at least trust your little Samael, right? To prevent this from happening, that kid has given us and Hela a lot of pep talks, and made up all sorts of scenario simulations and pre-set plans, scaring us quite a bit..."

Holo immediately rolled her eyes and retorted, but a nostalgic smile inadvertently appeared on her lips.

Immediately, seeing the angelic army gathering and attacking, Holo crossed her hands and swung them down, her ten fingers sprouting icy claws. She leaned back to Skadi, her back to hers, and did not forget to turn her head to look at Skadi, who was breathing unevenly.

"How are you doing? Can you hold on?"

"Not bad. By the way, where are the Loki?"

Skadi calmed her breathing, furrowed her brows and inquired, while simultaneously moving her lips and teeth to chant a rapid divine incantation.

Instantly, runes that appeared in front of the Goddess of Winter shot out like homing missiles towards the angels surrounding her from all directions, clearing the surrounding airspace once again.

In terms of troop coordination, Loki should theoretically lead the frost giants and her mountain giants, weaving and splitting them, with each side supporting the other.

As a result, less than a few hours later, the opposing team disconnected, leaving Skadi isolated and surrounded.

"That guy ran into a few troublesome Seraphim and was almost beaten half to death. Luckily, Hela intervened in time, preventing the army from collapsing..."

Holo pouted at her father from the side, showing no respect whatsoever.

"He can't even beat Heimdall, so expecting this guy to rise up is basically hopeless."

Skadi twitched her lips upon hearing this, turned around and looked into the distance. On the battlefield shrouded in gray-black mist, a cold and alluring goddess wearing a black cloak and a skull crown, wielding two swords of the night sky, was slicing through thousands of angels as easily as cutting melons and vegetables, creating a conspicuous vacuum around her, like a female war goddess descended to earth.

The same change also occurred to this goddess of death. The uncontrollable death and withering of half of her body actually grew back with intact flesh and blood, and the surging power of death was released without restraint.

Meanwhile, the handsome young man with a horned helmet and a bruised and swollen face cowered behind Hela, occasionally throwing a few knives to ambush the enemy, or stab out a dagger from the blind spot of his senses, and he was very fond of watching the victim's shocked reaction and expression when he was stabbed.

Everything was just as Samael had summarized: the warrior's bloodline, the wizard's skill point allocation, the assassin's actions...

Although, in short, he didn't waste his sleazy, wicked face and his scoundrel-like demeanor.

Skadi watched Loki, who was hiding behind Hela, having a great time and clearly forgetting his mission, and couldn't help but twitch her lips, speechless.

As time went on, the war entered a fierce stage.

“【?】、【?】、【?】、【?】！

The Goddess of Winter chanted runes at lightning speed, pouring out her magic power. After bombarding the surrounding angels and clearing the area once again, she couldn't help but frown and ask a question.

"According to the plan, we have already divided the Angelic Legion and introduced them into the Nine Ages of Gods. When exactly will we launch our counterattack?"

“It has already begun…”

Holo crossed her arms and swung them down, unleashing a chaotic storm of ice blades that shredded dozens of Radiant Individuals. At the same time, her eyes flashed, and she spoke softly.

Do you think there are far fewer angels?

Skadi was immediately jolted awake by these words. After careful observation, she was shocked to discover that the frequency and intensity of the angel army's attacks were gradually decreasing, and even their formation was becoming noticeably thinner.

On the contrary, his magic power, after round after round of consumption, seemed to show no signs of depletion.

Could it be that……

"world Tree!"

As the answer slipped from Skadi's lips, Holo's lips curled into a pleased smile, her icy blue eyes gazing intently at the shrinking void in the sky.

"Hmm, if I'm not mistaken, the World Tree is not only a defense against Ragnarok, but also a new life cycle system..."

Just as beneath the brilliant cherry blossoms often lie buried remains.

And "trees" are people-eaters!

Chapter 237 Forbidden Paradise of Life

Meanwhile, in the skies above the Absolute Monster Front, the Mesopotamian Hell Dragon Riders were invincible.

In the desert of the Radiant Composite Temple, the Egyptian Anubis Legion and the Sphinx of the Hot Sands grew stronger with each battle.

On this land of creation, destruction, and reincarnation, the population of the Indian states seems endless, and those who perished in the Ganges River return once more.

Within the sealed-off territory of the four seas, the angels, before they could even land, were submerged in the ocean of deep-sea fleets and the creations of Echdna's Armory, unable to advance an inch.

Before the fortress of the mad and perpetual empire, the Roman legions, numbering in the millions, stood as one, their divine might awe-inspiring, an unstoppable torrent of steel.

In the blood mist of the Hellish Asura Battlefield, the Persian Asuras went mad with rage, reveling in the thrill of battle and carnage.

Beneath the green waves of Crystal Tree Valley, the blazing white light was completely submerged by the verdant life.

Within the vast land of China, where mountains and rivers form a natural barrier and the terrain resembles a dragon, winding and protecting each other, the mighty army of Qin swept across the land!

In addition, given the current situation in Northern Europe, they hold a firm advantage on all battlefields of the nine generations of gods.

As those brilliant individuals were repeatedly shattered and reassembled, their spiritual energy was silently absorbed and assimilated by the soil, plants, rivers, mountains, and human bodies.

In fact, as Holo said, the entire World Tree is another life cycle system based on Gaia and the Nine Ages.

Although they suffered their first defeat in the battle for Earth and were forced to retreat to the World Tree.

But pulling back the fist is for a better strike.

By combining the will of the nine divine generations and Gaia, the defense line was rebuilt, essentially creating a complete smaller circle within the broken large circle of Earth's defense perimeter.

Once the angelic army, as outsiders, enters the nine divine eras maintained by the World Tree, it is like bacteria infiltrating the human body. Their spiritual particles are silently filtered and devoured by Gaia's will and the reshaped world wall, and fed back to the celestial spirit Gaia and the life that exists here.

This was precisely Samael's plan: to gradually transform these fanatical freaks who shouted for holy war and acted recklessly into nourishment for the World Tree and Gaia.

Since they are both spiritual particles, Jehovah can enjoy them, and Gaia can naturally absorb them as well.

On Avalon Island, the ancient serpent gazed at the miniature Earth model in its palm, taking in the changing battle situation, its brow gradually relaxing.

Everything is proceeding as expected. The situation is developing in their favor.

Ha! Only the Outer God himself would be qualified to challenge me. You bunch of abnormal beings who haven't even fully evolved yet, you think you can rebuild a planet? How arrogant!

Samael gave a cold snort, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

However, these angels were not ignorant fools. As the number of casualties became increasingly apparent, and the reinforcements who were supposed to return to the Holy Pool of Heaven and be reborn in flesh were slow to arrive, the angels immediately realized that something was wrong. They immediately sang divine words and called upon the true name of the Lord.
