Roland groaned.

This is the name he gave the other person.

On the one hand, it is because this child has gained life from her own dreams, and on the other hand, she hopes that she can be as free and unfettered as her dreams.

However, the girl named Reimu is the least free person in the world.

In order to collect the passage that allows the perception to spread from the throne, and to embark on a journey to regain the future, Hakurei Reimu is destined to become Hakurei Miko.

She was created for this purpose.

Thinking about it carefully, what he did was a complete replica of Commander Ikari, even the elements were matched.

Letting the child go, turning a blind eye to it, and then secretly letting it control a weapon based on her mother, ostensibly for the sake of her own world, but in fact all of this is for her own selfishness.

Roland walked casually, with a self-deprecating smile on his lips.

Although his steps were not large, he still subconsciously slowed down as he watched the little girl he had not touched for three years getting closer to him.

He did not think that he was a qualified father. In fact, Roland had no consciousness of being a father at all.

Although Illya is his legitimate daughter, the way she was created is quite ridiculous, like a dinosaur sealed in amber that unexpectedly wakes up and finds that thanks to the efforts of modern technology, it has already spread across the world.

But why did you decide to meet Reimu before leaving?

Is it because of guilt?

Maybe so, but even if he had to do it again, Roland would not change his decision.

If you put it this way, that's probably the only reason.

——Compared with doing whatever you want, in Roland's view, not doing anything you don't want to do is the real freedom.

The fate that Reimu Hakurei bears is the denial of this interpretation.

Even under his own protection, this road may be much smoother than other roads.

If Hakureiling dreams of becoming a Hakurei shrine maiden, it is not a bad idea to continue, but such a choice only makes sense if she can refuse the duties of a Hakurei shrine maiden.

But in fact, when the apostle of the Supreme Heaven is sleeping soundly on the couch, and when the survival of the world depends on the dream, Lingmeng has no right to refuse.

Even when the black snake is sleeping, it is more powerful than any enemy Roland has ever experienced.

While it is awake, no one can go against its will.

While it sleeps, no one can deny its curse.

But now I am unable to change this.

It was driven by such emotions that Roland came to see Ling Meng.

Even if the other party doesn't know, he made a promise.

This is not only a promise to his daughter, but also a guideline for Roland to move forward in the future.

Reimu, who was born from Yin Yang Jade and Black Energy, was born with powerful spiritual power and unparalleled talents. Her identity as a Hakurei miko also gave her the ability to freely rely on eight million gods.

Coupled with the natural dream that evolved on its own, the favor Reimu received was strong enough.

Therefore, Roland did not add any unnecessary extravagance, but only left a father's wish on Lingmeng.

——The realm of space where you can fly freely in the air without being affected by gravity.

If she can't break through her fate for the time being, at least I hope she can have endless freedom in a limited world.

——Can get to the truth of the matter directly, with intuition as sharp as if he had read a script.

If she can't get rid of her responsibilities, at least I hope she can deal with everything in the easiest way.

——The luck that can be ignored to the point of strength and weakness, and extreme enough to make all your wishes come true.

If she is destined to be unable to escape from nothingness, she at least hopes that the gravity brought by this luck will bring her wonderful encounters and friends with whom she can laugh together.

"My daughter, from the day you were born, the entire forest of Gensokyo has been whispering this name, Reimu Hakurei."

Roland whispered softly, gently placed his hand on the girl's smooth black hair, and stroked it gently.

"One day, this dreamland will reach its end. And you will also gain true freedom!"

"Who?"

Hakurei Reimu looked behind him with a dazed expression.

There was no one around, just the silent mountains and forests.

The barrier used to prevent the gap has been deployed, and the natural power of dreams has been activated. No one can touch her.

She subconsciously touched the top of her head, and it was as warm as ever. There was nothing unusual about it, but just now, she did feel a unique warmth.

"...Is it an illusion?"

-

Rome.

Although the empire that once stood tall in history has been reduced to nothing, its influence still deeply penetrates into the West as one pole of the world.

Countless emperors and leaders regarded it as the supreme honor to rule it, and now, on the stand where the new emperor was crowned and used to signal to the people, a young man with black hair and red eyes was standing alone.

But unlike the emperors who stood here in the past, what he was looking at was not the cheering people below, but the boundless sky.

There, a huge ship is floating in the atmosphere.

No, using a ship to describe it is not suitable at all, because even the largest aircraft carrier in mankind would be ashamed in front of it.

Because there is a visible gap between the two, which is a far greater distance than the difference between a carriage and a car.

Even if you think about it from an optimistic point of view, you still need to use the stars as a distance.

It was a space battleship.

Rather than interacting like this in the atmosphere, the universe is where it really shines.

An engine that can easily break through the earth's gravity, a defensive force field all over the ship's body, and even if any of the weapons it carries is taken out alone, it is enough to crush ordinary modern armies.

Relying on the power source of subspace, even if all the armies in the modern world were added up, it would only be an overwhelming victory.

As it cruises through the atmosphere, it feels like a moving star.

Behind the battleship, in Roland's sight, stars fell like rain.

"Emperor."

Respectful voices came from the hall behind him. The man in a cloak, who was simply the incarnation of words like "Kong Wu Li", knelt down on one knee and greeted the young man in the stands.

Behind him, the dark figure quickly knelt down, as if he had been used to this scene for a long time.

"The battleship has been prepared. Do you want to continue the review?"

As the commander of the battleship, the man with high authority asked in a low voice, with indescribable admiration and excitement in his tone.

He didn't have any unnecessary emotions because of the young man's youthful appearance, because he had already witnessed the miracles brought about by him.

In this chaotic modern world, in countries fighting each other, all kinds of new-age technologies are springing up like mushrooms after a rain.

No one needed to remind anyone that intense military preparations were beginning to gather momentum.

Everyone knows that the war affecting the world will come at any time.

In such an atmosphere of panic, a young man named Roland appeared without warning.

He united several countries with his amazing talent and leadership, and used his unparalleled wisdom to quickly put many obscure technologies into practical use, bringing a new page to the history of this planet.

——The Empire of Man.

But even when he was given the honorable name of the Emperor of Mankind and was already believed in as a god within the empire, he still did not stop his efforts to usher in a new era.

Bolt guns, subspace engines, psychic powers, one brand-new technology after another was proposed by him, making the dream of the star sea that only existed in fantasy in the past begin to move forward again.

Until now, even the distant Mars has become a colony of the empire.

But the emperor's ambitions will not end because of this. His eyes are always set on more distant places, and this is why they are fully armed today.

"Emperor?"

After hearing his second call, Roland closed his eyes and erased the reflection of the black snake in his eyes.

He turned around, looked at the world that had been wrapped in dreams, looked at the fate he held in his hands, and smiled.

"Then, gentlemen, let's begin.

——The first great expedition of the human empire. "

Chapter 384 A chaotic new world

Roland sat on the golden throne.

This method of taking back his perception and sitting here to remotely control it made him feel uneasy about switching from holding the steering wheel and driving to using a keyboard to drive in the screen.

But compared to the consequences of the black snake sleeping outside the boundary being affected by abnormal movements, the chaos in the universe due to subtle impacts is nothing.

"It's so beautiful..."

Seeing the battleships shuttle between the stars and the universe, Yakumo Purple muttered.

As the only person in the world who knew the truth except the Dragon God who had not yet recovered, Roland did not refuse her request to watch.

Therefore, she also knew the full picture of this action.

In the name of the Emperor, he leads the humans who hold the most important position in destiny, twists them into one body, and uses interstellar expeditions to passively influence the will of the world.

In addition, the magical nature of Gensokyo, which was born in an unconventional world, is the best conductive material for Roland. The channels built with them can also allow Roland's dreams to spread from the inside of the world to the outside, thus forming an alternative The will of the world drives the world to swim in the sea of ​​diversity.

However, despite this, as Roland himself said, this operation is no different from digging a channel artificially to allow the stream water to flow naturally down the river under the influence of curvature and gravity. It is a helpless move with no technical content.

But in Yakumo Murasaki's opinion, even if the Dragon God revives, he probably won't be able to do the same thing.

Roland is able to express himself so easily because he always stands at a higher perspective and uses the universe and the world as a yardstick to measure.

"The next phase of the plan has officially begun. It will determine who is the real winner between me and the black snake."

Hearing Roland's calm words, as if some kind of switch had been pressed, the air in the hall suddenly became silent.

Yakumo Purple's expression became extremely serious, she didn't say anything, she just stared quietly ahead.

The only difference from before was that the uneasiness that once lingered in her heart when she heard about the black snake was gone.

Instead, there is a firm and awe-inspiring fighting spirit and determination.

The more than three years that Lingmeng had been growing up had been enough for her to have confidence in Roland.

"Remember, the goal of this plan is... to search for possibilities in the new world or to have a strength comparable to that before the injury, right?"

Roland smiled slightly, and then he said calmly.

"In general, that's right. This description is too ambiguous. If I just use the fluctuations when the worlds collide to spread my dreams to other worlds, thereby gaining new possibilities and even stronger power, this is not Difficult to do.”

Looking at Yakumo Murasaki, whose eyes lit up, Roland suddenly changed the subject and his voice became deeper.

"But unfortunately, it is only to this extent. It may revive the world, and it may make me leave this throne, but it cannot bring about a turnaround."

"We must admit that I am just an insignificant existence compared to this black snake. It doesn't even need to use power, it is enough to keep me in this state of being on the verge of disappearing and there is nothing I can do."

"So, can this level of change end this situation?"

Roland asked softly, and revealed the answer without giving Yakumo Purple time to think.

"It can't be ended."

"Even if new possibilities are gained, it only increases the probability of awakening the apostle. It has no timing significance for the fundamental dilemma."

From being on the verge of death to being on the verge of death, the difference in state is not a big difference when the enemy can solve it with just a breath.

Otherwise, Roland would not have resolutely discarded all possibilities.

"Of course, if I continue to find new worlds and bring them under my control, this behavior will really help me."

"But the greater the threat, the higher the Black Snake's success rate in breaking free under the influence of the mission."

Roland knocked on the throne and looked down.

"This method of using dreams to spread to gain new life is originally a sideline to this situation. It was still within my control once or twice, but even I cannot guarantee the subsequent changes."

"The power gap between us is too great. It is impossible for me to bet my hope of breaking the deadlock on such a risky method."

Although everything seems to be getting better, Roland, who has been sitting on the throne and overlooking everything from a high-dimensional perspective, understands that his situation is still very dangerous.
