Man is infinite, and his ambition is to slay the dragon

Voices of fear rose and fell in the audience, and Saikyo Ningyin and Shinguji Kurono looked at Sieg in amazement.

"Boy, your body..."

"Are you still doubting now?"

After asking back, Sieg did not wait for a response, but went straight to the body that was about to sink completely, and possessed Stella's body that was about to be completely burned by the magma sea and picked it up.

After raising it and taking a look, Sieg sighed slightly: "Well, it can still be saved - Klinshid, teleport."

For the first time, without any disguise, Zigg revealed his biggest secret on this stage broadcast live to the world.

As his voice fell——

"Buzz!"

A magic circle suddenly appeared under his feet, and a dazzling white light suddenly lit up!

Holding Stella's body in his arms, Sieg glanced at everyone and said, "My competition ends here. I will give up the finals starting tomorrow. Enjoy your last peace. What will happen after this is the [destruction] that you have never imagined."

"We, the [Roaring Blood Clan], will drag this planet into hell."

"Wait, kid! What did you say?!"

“Shua——————!”

Just as Xi Jing Ning Yin was about to ask, Sieg's figure had already disappeared from the stage! Even Stella's body disappeared without a trace!

Deathly silence enveloped the entire Bayside Dome.

And then——

“——————————————!!!”

The unprecedented commotion overwhelmed the entire dome, the entire ghost town, the entire Japan, and even the entire world.

122. The End of Peace

On this day, the whole world was shocked.

Last year, the dangerous criminal who attacked the Japanese branch and brought disgrace to the International Magic Knight League - [Flame Beast] Siegfried Phil - has committed unacceptable atrocities again after a year!

At the 62nd Seven Stars Swordsmanship Festival, in front of millions or even nearly ten million viewers who were watching the live broadcast, he killed a rare genius in the past ten years, [Crimson Lotus Princess] Stella Famillion. After that, with his superb acting skills, he openly snatched the body of the Crimson Lotus Princess, left a strange declaration, and disappeared.

For this tragedy that happened in public, the Alliance and Japan, as the organizers, immediately received attention and accountability from all walks of life. King Famiglian even issued a sky-high bounty and publicly declared that he would find the [Flame Beast] and avenge his beloved daughter!

Under such circumstances, the Seven Stars Sword Festival had to end in a rather sloppy manner.

Of course, this was not entirely due to external pressure, but also because two players, Nagi Susiin and Amane Shinomiya, publicly announced their abstention afterwards. So in essence, the semi-final between Sieg and Stella was the final this time.

Putting aside the various influences that occurred afterwards and looking purely at the content of the game itself, this match can be fully regarded as a true final.

but--

.......

“It still seems a little hard to believe…”

Three days after the Seven Star Sword Festival ended.

In the ghost town that was still bustling with people, sitting in the hotel restaurant provided to the contestants of the Seven Star Sword Festival, Ikki Kurogane and the students from Pojun Academy who came to watch the competition sat together, sighing as they ate.

"Sieg... I'm not surprised that he would kill Stella. After all, he is the kind of person who would do such a thing, and he did kill Stella once before. But this time..."

"So you think so, Kurogane-san."

Opposite Kurogane Ikki, Toudou Daohua also nodded slightly: "We can also fully understand Sieg's logic. I also think that his behavior this time... has a deeper meaning behind it. I just don't know why he did this."

Although he already knew from Sieg what he wanted to do, Dongtang Daohua could not say it directly due to the agreement between him and him.

"But at least we can be sure that he really wants to save Stella. It's just that he seems to want to achieve some purpose by taking Stella away."

"I think so too... Alas~~~ Anyway, the following areas are not something that we students can touch upon."

Kurogane Ikki smiled bitterly with helplessness.

Although he didn't think he was very strong, he never thought he was weak. At least most of the official knights should be his opponents. But even so, in this Seven Star Sword Festival, facing the real strong ones, he also saw how terrible the world he wanted to reach was.

"What are you going to do next, Toudou-senpai? If the Seven Stars Sword Festival is over, that means you—"

"Well, there's not much time left until graduation."

Dongtang Daohua nodded.

She is already in her third year, and this Seven Stars Sword Festival is the last conference for her. Although graduation is in March next year, Toudou Daohua must start thinking about what to do after graduation from now on.

"There is still some time before the end of summer vacation. I plan to go find my master and train him thoroughly from beginning to end. After graduation... I plan to catch up with Sieg-san and work hard to be able to stand beside him. First of all, I have to enter the A-level league."

Generally speaking, there are two options for the swordsmen who graduated from the Knight Academy: one is to become a reserve soldier, working in the job they found or in the business they run at home, and then become a temporary soldier when they are called up in an emergency. The other is to become a professional player, participate in the domestic league in Japan, and finally enter the KOK A-level league.

"Where's Kurogane-san?"

"As for me... I plan to take a leave of absence next year." Kurogane Ikki said after a moment of silence, "Then I plan to go overseas to practice like my elder brother. I feel that the practice in the academy can no longer help me make much progress. If I want to reach the top of the Seven Stars Sword Festival next year, I must practice more rigorously."

Ikki Kurogane needs to step out of his comfort zone. With his strength, he will hardly get any significant growth by staying in the academy.

"However, under the current circumstances, it is still a question whether the Seven Stars Sword Festival can be held next year, and Sieg also..."

"That's right."

Dongtang Daohua sighed softly.

There had been casualties in the Seven Star Sword Festival before, but the impact this time was very significant. After all, Sieg had intentionally killed a princess, which was not the same as the accidental killing caused by mistake in the past.

(I hope you know what you are doing, Mr. Zig.)

"boom----!"

At this moment, the door of the restaurant was suddenly pushed open, and Kurogane Jushizuku ran in in a panic. After taking a quick look, she quickly came to the table where Kurogane Ikki and others were sitting: "Brother! And the student council president and everyone else, something big happened outside!"

"Shizuku? Big deal? What big deal?"

Ikki Kurogane was somewhat confused and puzzled.

The Seven Star Swordsmanship Festival has now ended ahead of schedule. Apart from the fact that Sieg's issue has not been completely resolved, what other big things could happen?

"Anyway! Everyone please go outside or out the window and look up at the sky! Wait... or just watch the news! There must be a live broadcast on TV!"

As Kurogane Shushizuku spoke, she took out her student handbook and switched to the news channel.

And just as she thought, what the news station was broadcasting was exactly what she wanted to tell others.

[The following is an urgent news]

[Just now, countries around the world have observed an extremely powerful magical power that is far stronger than any known swordsman. It is estimated to be 3000 times the world's average magical power. And then - everyone, please look at the live broadcast! This is the scene above Osaka, Japan, where the Seven Stars Sword Festival just ended two days ago! ]

Along with the news anchor's voice, a live broadcast shot suddenly zoomed in to take up the entire screen.

And in the lens——

"That is......"

"——A spaceship?"

Dongtang Daohua's whisper, full of astonishment, expressed the impression in everyone's mind.

——An extremely huge spaceship, whose shadow can easily cover most of the city, is now quietly hovering above the city.

123. Alien Invasion Declaration

Probably every child has had such a fantasy when he was young.

[One day, some extremely terrible monster appeared in the world, or aliens came to the earth and wanted to invade the world where people live]

[In order to fight against monsters and invaders, you will transform into a mysterious masked hero or a huge giant, and fight fiercely with waves of enemies, and finally successfully protect your own world.]

Although there may be many differences in the details, all children should have had such a dream.

And today, this "dream" which is essentially equivalent to "fantasy" has turned into the most unacceptable "reality" in the most unexpected way.

"That's... a spaceship?!"

Kurogane Ikki and others who ran out of the hotel directly to confirm the authenticity of the news stood among the crowd who came to the street for the same purpose. They looked up with astonishment at the huge spaceship floating in the sky, covering most of the city in its shadow.

When did it appear there?

Why is there such a big spaceship in this world?

"Could it be... the White Whale from the United States?"

Ikki Kurogane came up with a somewhat far-fetched guess.

Everyone knows that the strongest swordsman in the United States and even the entire alliance of great powers is [Superman] Abraham Carter, but before he came out of nowhere, there was another powerful man who had been famous for a long time in the United States.

[Moby Dick], or [Sky Admiral]——Douglas Upton.

He is like no one else in the whole world, and possesses the one-of-a-kind [Giant Air Battleship] type inherent spiritual outfit!

"No, shouldn't it be?"

Dongtang Daohua shook his head: "I have seen the video of the flying admiral using the inherent spiritual suit before. Although his spiritual suit is huge, it is much smaller than this spaceship."

The length of the Admiral's inherent spiritual suit is only about 500 meters, but the spaceship hovering over Osaka City at this moment is more than a thousand meters long! It easily covers several blocks, allowing the entire city to see its huge figure!

"So what exactly is this spaceship..."

[Beep beep! Beep beep! Beep beep! ]

A burst of urgent voices suddenly broke out in the crowd. Everyone involuntarily took out their ringing mobile phones, and after turning on the screen -

[Ahhh? Can you hear me? Can you see me? I have successfully hacked into the media networks around the world, right?]

On everyone's cell phone, every computer, the big screens on the buildings along the street...all screens that can be used to display images, at this moment, the face of a man who has been remembered by the whole world in the past few days appeared at the same time, and the voice that countless people can never forget rang out.

"Zi, Zieg-san——?!"

Dongtang Daohua couldn't help but exclaimed!

The one appearing on the screen now is none other than Ziegfell!

Judging from the background, he seems to be sitting in the cockpit...or the bridge, with multiple unclear figures standing behind him. Compared to when he disappeared three days ago, the current Sieg gives people a feeling of...some reluctance and unwillingness even through the screen?

[Yes, we have successfully taken control of the global media network. Now your voice can be heard in every corner of the world, Master Sieg.]

A heavenly female voice sounded.

Brunhilde then appeared beside Sieg. Looking at her goddess-like face that could not be described in words and far surpassed any beauty in the world, all the women watching this scene inexplicably felt that they had lost.

[Well, humans on Earth No. 52, whether or not you have known me before, I will introduce myself to you first.]

[I am Ziegfeld, a life form from outside this planet. In terms of the civilization on this planet, I am an alien.]

[In the past year or so, I have had a very good time on this planet. I have met friends worth making friends with, met very good teachers, and met good opponents who can match me - I love this planet very much.]

[Therefore, I am here to announce with great sadness - I... no, we, our 'Roaring Blood Clan', will invade this planet from today, and within the next week, completely conquer this planet! ]

Conquer... this planet!?

The sudden bold words shocked the whole world at this moment!

[Is it incredible? Yes, it is incredible. I am also very sad and upset - but I have no choice! ]

[Because there are countless dangerous factors among you humans, they are trying to provoke wars around the world and drag the world into war again! ]

[So——I want to conquer this planet! ]

[Eliminate all those who attempt to start a war in every country in the world, and eliminate all the oppressors, rulers, and cruel people on this planet - all the unsettling factors that can be collectively called "dragons"! We, the Roaring Blood Clan, will rule this beautiful planet! ]

Sieg, his tone gradually becoming more and more excited, stood up from his seat, and the camera shifted to his face!

[I repeat again, humans on Planet 52, within a week starting from today, we will conquer everything on this planet]

[This is not a declaration of war, but a unilateral invasion - you can resist in any form, but I believe you all know the cost of resistance without me having to tell you.]

[We do not accept surrender, cooperation, or rebellion]

[Before the seventh dawn rises, everything on this planet will fall silent, and on this brand new planet, we will establish a brand new order and civilization! ]

At this point, Ziggy moved closer to the camera.
