Give them the opportunity to step onto the 'ladder to heaven'.

Give them dust, but they can condense into the foundation of the earth.

In the battle at the end of the old millennium, Rune's power was undoubtedly the most crucial point, whether it was destruction or reconstruction - the 'Soul King' used it to devour the ancient angels and defeat the rebels of various countries. He defeated the old things in the world with his own strength, and also forged a new mysterious order with his own strength.

——《New Millennium·The Book of Runes》

...

"His Majesty Li Re has successfully conquered the 'Kingdom of Burlagne' and is heading towards the westernmost coast of the continent!"

This news spread back to the capital of Einbeth in the Central Kingdom.

It took only seven days for the army to march westward and easily break through a powerful "Principality" - this was undoubtedly very encouraging to the people in the rear of the kingdom!

In fact.

Although all the remaining nobles in the kingdom have surrendered to the 'Emperor' and the 'Spirit King', and they also acknowledge that these two are powerful and are absolutely above the earthly world, but under the influence of the ten thousand years of earthly order operated by the Covenant of Abraham and the inertia of common sense they have developed over a long period of time, everyone's hearts are still beating fast.

They could see the power of Li Re and Qu Shenyin.

However, they did emerge as a rising star during this period of time.

But the high and mighty existence of 'Satoyes' and 'Angels' has existed for nearly ten thousand years!

But it's okay.

Li Re's strength did not disappoint anyone.

The fall of Buragan, one of the only three remaining principalities on the Ariel Continent and known as the 'Land of Orcs', and the death of Archduke Sindre Buragan, who was both Archduke Buragan and the King of Orcs, undoubtedly prove this point.

Even according to the personal descriptions of those who came from the front line, Li Re this time, in public, caused Emily, the 'Angel of Life' worshipped by the 'Church of Life' stationed in the Principality of Bragen, to fall from a high altitude!

Angel Falls

This thing, which was only a rumor before, actually happened in front of everyone!

The encouragement that this brings is inevitable.

The resulting celebration is necessary.

The magical nobles were glad that they had made the right choice, the big families were glad that they had sent the most powerful members of their family to participate in the expedition and to help, and the small families quickly set off to the front line.

The war is not over yet, and it is not too late to join in.

The civilians were even more excited.

The night the news came - the entire capital was plunged into a bright and intense festive atmosphere!

“What a lively scene...”

In the kingdom's capital that was brightly lit under the cover of night, someone spoke like this.

The man stood in the shadow at the corner of the street, his long dark blue hair combed back neatly and meticulously, revealing a long face that was slightly sharp and sinister. He was wearing a decent suit and holding a scepter in his other hand. He was in the noisy and lively street, but he seemed to be staring at the scene in front of him from a high position, watching the people coming and going on the street, the noise of cars and horses, and the grand scene of those who had nothing celebrating and dancing.

He raised his eyes and looked into the distance - deep in the royal city, at the extremely high and far-away 'royal palace', a hint of coldness appeared on the corners of his mouth.

"But yes."

He seemed to be talking to himself.

It was as if he was talking to someone: "Being able to defeat that reckless man Hindley Burlaghen in just a few days... is indeed enough to make people excited!"

In this mortal world, a Magic Knight can defeat ten at once, a Sorcerer Knight can defeat a hundred at once, and a Legendary Knight can defeat a thousand at once - and Sindleigh Bragen, who is not only a knight among the Legendary Knights but also the valiant and warlike 'King of Orcs', is in some ways no less capable than those ordinary kings in history - it is not difficult to form an army by one person!

But such an existence still cannot stop the Spirit King from taking action.

Such a guy.

After Li Re made his move, he only held on for a moment!

"It is said that the title given to the 'Spiritual King' Li Re within the kingdom is no longer 'King', but the higher-level 'Demi-God'..."

The man chewed and spoke like this.

"Yes!"

There was an immediate response to the words that sounded like he was talking to himself.

A figure appeared behind him, speaking in a low voice: "This is jointly approved by the three marquises, six earls, thirteen viscounts, and several barons of the kingdom, as well as countless nobles with surnames and unknown nobles—"

"Li Re is assessed as a demigod, and his title is 'Ling'."

"Demigod, half a step to being a god, being a god and a man at the same time. Even the ancestor of knights, Osdu, was still a little short of this step. Perhaps only the ancestor of magic from even earlier times could reach this level?"

The man in formal attire and holding the scepter said this, but the people behind him did not respond. They just lowered their heads, waiting for what the man would say. He then changed the subject and said, "But a 'demigod' is not a true god after all!"

"For example, right now...he absolutely cannot return from the front line immediately and cannot stop our actions."

"Everything, are you ready?"

"Reporting to His Majesty Grand Duke Brar, everything is ready!" The person in the shadow behind him responded respectfully.

The man standing at the corner of the street - undoubtedly, it was Grand Duke Brar, one of the three dukes who had previously attended the meeting at the Corner of Southland and Sky City. His bearded face raised an increasingly cold smile.

He said:

"Then let's get started."

"The Royal City is so lively tonight - if we could light bigger fireworks in this palace, it would definitely be even more lively!"

"It's worth it for me to leave the meeting... and come here."

...

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Fireworks bloomed in the sky above the royal city, illuminating the night world with a bright and blazing glow.

Standing on the palace high above the royal city, if you look up you can seem to touch the blazing fireworks, and if you look down you can also take in the surging crowds of the entire city.

This extremely high scenery made An Dong's legs tremble...

She couldn't help but grab a piece of rubble from the dome and asked tremblingly, "Master Shenyin...can we go back now?"

Hearing her words, the 'girl' who was also sitting steadily on the dome of the palace, with her hips pressed against the cold rubble and her black silk legs stretched out casually from under her tight hot pants, glanced to the side and glanced at her with her beautiful light purple eyes while her long black hair was flying.

She smiled and said, "Tonight's show has just begun—"

"You want to go back so badly...Aren't you afraid of missing out?"

An Dong instinctively wanted to say that he was not afraid.

However...

"But I won't allow you to not be afraid." Qu Shenyin still smiled.

An Dong: "..."

You are not allowed to ask me! ?

She held on to the rubble beneath her even more tightly, fearing that she would slip accidentally.

But then I heard a sigh from the side.

"I wonder how the princess is taking care of herself..." Anton looked in the direction of the voice and saw another girl standing on the roof. The 'butler girl' in a black vest and a long black skirt was staring at the sky and whispering, "I wonder if she can see the fireworks? Will she get lost accidentally..."

obviously.

The girl began to worry about Arisa Ainbeth, who was going to the battle alone with Li Re.

This was the nth time she had said similar words since Li Re went to war...Anton opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

"Do not worry!"

Qu Shenyin opened her mouth and swung her long legs, her tone relaxed: "Don't look at Li Re like that, he is actually very good at taking care of people...especially girls."

"And you underestimate your princess. She's very smart and talented. She has a good chance of surviving!"

What you said makes me even more worried...An Dong's eyebrows twitched slightly, and he instinctively wanted to say a few words to comfort Aili.

Ayi Li nodded in agreement: "That's true."

An Dong: "..."

Okay, I was overthinking it!

Fireworks were still blooming in the sky - casting bright and blazing shadows one after another, and also covering the surrounding undulating domes of royal palaces with a layer of soft glow.

The evening breeze was blowing between the rosy clouds, and the sounds of the whistling wind and the rumbling explosions were spreading wildly.

Between the interlacing lights.

It also seemed to bring with it dark shadows... dark shadows! ?

An Dong shuddered suddenly, stood up abruptly, and subconsciously stood in front of Qu Shenyin - Aili was faster than her and stood behind Qu Shenyin.

One in front and one behind 'protecting' her!

The sounds of "pa ta pa ta" came from all directions at the same time!

"Uh-huh... finally here."

Qu Shenyin exhaled, her expression natural and her tone casual: "Li Re really guessed it right——"

bingo.

Someone will take the opportunity to attack them from behind!

If not.

Qu Shenyin would not willingly stay behind and leave the opportunity to perform on the front line to Li Re.

And in between her whispers.

The black shadows that suddenly appeared from all directions walked over the rubble. There were a lot of them, one after another, almost filling up the entire dome of the palace. Some of them even "floated" into the low sky, truly surrounding Qu Shenyin, An Dong and Ayili from all directions.

They were completely black, and no specific appearance could be seen, as if they had merged into the night.

An Dong became more alert after seeing this scene - she slowly raised her hands and held up two pieces of 'Rune'. Even though she knew it was not necessary, she still stood in front of Qu Shenyin.

Because this is her duty as Qu Shenyin's bodyguard!

It has nothing to do with need or not.

Just see if you should do it!

The same happened to Aili - she also raised her hands, and rich magic power instantly wrapped around her whole body, forming a layer of invisible armor - it even vaguely left her body!

Although she is just Princess Arisa's butler.

But Her Royal Highness the Princess said before she left that she should treat Qu Shenyin more seriously than she did her - in this case, protecting the 'Emperor' Qu Shenyin is also inevitable!

At this time.

But then I heard a voice coming from this dark crowd——

"'Emperor'... should I call you that?"

A slightly suppressed and low voice echoed in the evening breeze, and the dark crowd automatically dispersed to both sides. A figure in a formal suit and holding a scepter walked out. His meticulously combed long hair swayed gently behind his head as he walked. His face, as sinister and sharp as his voice, seemed to provoke a mocking smile - his eyes passed over An Dong in front of him, and looked at Qu Shenyin who was still sitting casually on the ground.

He said:

"I have to admire your courage and determination to usurp the throne."

"Moreover...I have to thank you for being the first to break the restrictions of the Abrahamic Covenant!"

As An Dong walked towards this man, her whole body stiffened. She felt as if she was being stared at by a poisonous snake...she could not move.

Ayi Li's expression changed slightly: "Duke Brar?"

She obviously knew the visitor and knew how powerful he was!

After hearing the words of this person, Qu Shenyin couldn't help but look over and said, "Thank you?"

"Yes, thank you!"

Grand Duke Brar raised the scepter in his hand. The red gem on the top of the scepter lit up brightly amid the fireworks that were still blooming in the distance. "As the saying goes, if there is a first, there will be a second. You broke the commandments and usurped the throne. If I were here, I would kill you. With such great achievements, it would be natural for me to take over your throne, wouldn't it?"

"After all, although you are usurping the throne, your title of emperor is recognized by the 'Angel' - even if that 'Angel' has long been controlled by you!"

This is why he was so impatient to take action!

He also wants to be crowned emperor——

Want to be equal to 'God'!

Now that the Spirit King has gone to war and the rear is empty... this is the perfect time!
