Chapter 763 Contradiction
Ta Ta Ta Ta——
Xia Xiu's footsteps walked lightly and silently on the dim corridor. The air was filled with a dull and heavy atmosphere, but he did not stop, but instead accelerated his pace.
As he gradually approached his destination, a strange pressure suddenly rose in the originally peaceful environment, as if some invisible eyes were staring at him from the shadows.
The feeling was so strong that he could almost feel the anxiety in the other person's gaze.
For a [Crowned One], the information around him is extremely sensitive.
Xia Xiu's spirituality flows through every corner like electricity, not missing any detail.
Although the power this peek comes from is insignificant compared to an existence of Seth's level, the malice and hostility are clearly visible, almost like a venomous snake-like threat, silent but deadly.
He frowned and reached out to gently press the top hat, as if he wanted to use this action to integrate himself more closely into this uneasy space.
His eyes became sharp, piercing through the invisible aura, trying to catch the enemy lurking in the darkness.
"Is it at the very back?"
There was a slight chuckle in his whisper, aware of the source of the prying eyes.
The sage of Kailasel is inside, and he also has a "companion".
They were looking at him with boundless malice, and he smiled back at the malice.
Afterwards, Xia Xiu walked straight towards the source of the malice.
Ta Ta Ta Ta——
With every step closer, he could more clearly feel a sense of repulsion seeping from all directions. It was the hostility transmitted from the plane itself, like a cold barrier, like a thousand-layered crystal wall. , getting stronger as he approached.
The feeling was extremely heavy. Every time he stepped closer, the plane's exclusion rules were like tangible forces rushing towards him, and every tiny molecule was trying to exclude his existence.
This power made his blood become colder by waves, as if countless ice needles penetrated every inch of his skin from all directions.
It is not only the oppression of space, but also the resistance of the rules themselves.
[Detection of surface rejection——]
[Crystal Wall Repulsion: Strength is increasing
Repulsive area of influence: Center of the plane (where the Lord of the plane exists)
Current repulsion value: Planar repulsion: +42%
Description: This rejection stems from the natural rejection of non-plane entities by the "inherent laws" of the plane itself.
As it gets closer to the target's core, the repulsion intensity will gradually increase.
When the repulsion value reaches a certain percentage, the speed of movement and reaction ability will be greatly affected.
The current repulsion value appears as a conflicting reaction to the rules of the surrounding space, increasing the energy consumption and time of each step forward.
Crystal Wall Repulsion: +35%
Description: Crystal wall repulsion results from the defense mechanism of the plane itself consisting of "crystal barriers".
As it gets closer to the core target (the Lord of the Plane), the repulsive effect of the crystal wall gradually strengthens.
This repulsive effect blocks movement and intensifies the constraints of space.
Through this mechanism, non-plane entities will face gradually increasing physical suppression.
Energy loss: Energy loss +5% per hour (when the rejection value increases cumulatively, energy loss accelerates). Energy recovery speed is reduced and action recovery time is extended.
Start activating the corresponding program:
Activate "Plane Adaptation Mode" to reduce the physical and mental impact of the rejection effect.
(Maximum adaptation time: 45 minutes, a certain amount of energy needs to be consumed for short-term adaptation, and the fitness is adjusted according to the plane repulsion intensity)]
"It seems that the old turtle got a lot of good things in Ode Papadopolis."
Xia Xiu raised the corners of his mouth slightly and whispered to himself in a low voice.
"If I hadn't happened to catch up this time, maybe he could have made some big moves.
Now he probably has the home field advantage and Lancelot's legacy, and wants to compete with me. ”
This "Old Turtle" is himself the plane master of the Naga Ring. According to the information from the two plane masters of Kailasel who were killed by him earlier, it can be known that their sages have inherited He has absorbed most of the blasphemous power of the original demon from Lancelot's corpse, and has mastered the high-frequency template capability of [Tera Ether Floating Point Computational Efficiency].
Moreover, he has deep cooperation ties with MC&D Company, which is trying to review the abnormal weaponization project, and with the Hermes Foundation, which cooperates with the Four Monarchs and obtains a large amount of chaos and even human genetic data.
Coupled with the home field advantage of the Naga Ring, he does have enough power and resources to make earth-shattering changes, and he can indeed not be afraid of a fourth sword-wielder in the Kingdom of Heaven who has just debuted for a little more than two and a half years.
Ta Ta Ta Ta——
Xia Xiu's pace gradually quickened. The further he moved forward, the stronger the hostility he could feel, and the oppressive feeling became almost palpable.
He held the [Lever of Heaven] in his hand tightly, his eyes getting colder and colder.
He mentally assessed the upcoming battle.
The full-on mode of [Torino Type I] also has the combat power of [Tera Ether Floating Point Computing Efficiency], but the political alliance he had earlier reached with Felden (cool old man), the chairman of the Ethics Committee, so he could temporarily Call the committee’s [Authority Module·Pole·Cupid System].
At its current stage, the Cupid system can barely increase a few values on the basis of one trillion. If it is in temporary overclocking mode, it can also maintain a value of ten trillion for dozens of minutes.
However, taking into account the suppression of the plane and the crystal wall, the ten trillion value is estimated to be partially reduced.
As for mechanics, Triple Crown, [Out of Control World] and [Leverage of the Sky] are basically not timid in this regard.
The [Sword of Damocles] can also be pulled out temporarily to deal several rounds of huge damage with a war intensity level of [Ω5.5].
He was curious, what was the basis and trump card for the old turtle in front of him to fight with him?
The other party plans to use the [Eternal Burning Fire] left behind by the spark to deal with him?
Or does the other party have other spark creations?
While thinking about it, Xia Xiu had already entered the range of perception that could be struck. His hand had already reached into his windbreaker to grasp the [Lever of Heaven].
The shadow of [Vashak] also appeared from behind him.
The ability to stop time is ready to go.

An underground palace in Ode Papadopolis.
The interior of the palace is a magnificent and magnificent space.
The structure of the flying buttresses extends upward from the ground, as if countless hands are holding the dome high, and each pointed arch points directly to the sky.
The design of the ribbed vault makes the ceiling show complex geometric beauty under the light, like a huge star map.
The spiers are filled with carvings and decorations, and each pillar is entwined with ancient inscriptions and delicate reliefs.
The walls of the entire palace are inlaid with smooth obsidian, reflecting the light of the gas lamp, showing an almost divine cold light.
Those gas lamps hung between the walls and pillars were completely different from today's gas lamps.
Each lamp emits a stable light with a radius of 15 meters. The light is warm but not dazzling. It casts a soft light curtain on the entire palace, making the space both grand and tranquil.
The light penetrates the glass-inlaid windows of the dome, reflecting the ancient totems painted on the windows on the floor, like a never-ending feast of light and shadow.
In this magnificent hall, a young man wearing a gorgeous red robe was walking around.
His face was handsome, with melancholy in his brows, and the red color of his robe looked like a burning flame under the light of the gas lamp.
The belt of the red robe tied the loose-cut material into neat lines, and the close-fitting trousers under the robe accentuated his slender figure.
He held a book with a red cover in his left hand. The cover of the book was engraved with ancient words - "The Book of Sages". "Geoffrey de la Tour, this time we fight against the fourth sword-bearer in heaven, what are the chances of winning?"
Samuel Kerasel looked forward impatiently, where the gray-haired and child-faced old man Geoffrey de la Tour was busy.
He was wearing a silver robe, and the lens of his monocle reflected a faint light in the light of the gas lamp.
His face was calm, but the movements in his hands were extremely focused.
He is operating an extremely exquisitely crafted "box", which is both like a box and more like a wonderful dreamy box garden world.
The box is approximately 32cm x 20cm x 26cm, painted silver inside and out, with "Homecoming of the Dragon" scrawled on the lid in black marker.
In the box, the origami model dragon is dancing.
The origami dragons range from 9 to 30 centimeters in different colors but are all lifelike.
Silver-robed wizard Geoffrey glanced at the sage beside him unhurriedly, his tone was calm but there was a hint of unquestionable meaning:
"If we start a war now, with the power of the Little Garden world and the blasphemous power we draw from Lancelot, the odds of winning are about 40 to 60."
Samuel raised his eyebrows: "We are 60%?"
Geoffrey glanced at him and sneered:
"The opponent has a 60% chance. We only have a 40% chance of winning. However, if we use the Kailasel family's hundreds of years of accumulation and the complete performance of Hakoba, we may be able to increase it by another 10%.
The goal does not have to be to defeat him, it only needs to remain undefeated in the battle, which is already the greatest victory. ”
Samuel thought for a moment, and then asked:
"Then why have you repeatedly stopped us from evacuating now?"
The silver-robed wizard's eyes were slightly gloomy, and his tone was a little more profound:
"It's too late, Samuel. You should know very well what a vengeful evil man Hugh Abraham is.
This time he personally came to the Hundred-Level World, and his target was probably aimed at me.
And, even if we get away with it now, do you really think Heaven will let us off easily?
Once they grasp the truth about the existence of Ode Papadopolis and our anomalous weaponization program, no matter where we escape to, there will never be a moment of peace. ”
He paused, and a shadow appeared in his eyes:
"After countless calculations, I finally ignored a little detail of this world - I didn't expect that I would accidentally kill someone from the Administration, and actually lead the evil man to the core of the Hundred-layer World.
What's worse is that I can feel that there is some unknown force lurking in this city, an unspeakable malevolence.
The arrival of Hugh Abraham is probably inseparable from this force. ”
Samuel's face became more and more gloomy. He was about to say something, but Joe Frey jumped in and said:
"The only way to survive now is to take all our research materials and completed projects and defect to Chaos, Oletin or Daeva as soon as possible.
Or, go directly to the outside world and hide in the Ivy Deep World.
Samuel, you must accept this reality - the Kailasel family has been put on the blacklist of the most terrifying and evil forces on Terra.
We are destined to walk on thin ice for the rest of our lives, surviving in pursuits and sieges. ”
Joffrey slowly turned his head, his voice was low but bone-chillingly calm:
"Before we are completely reduced to losing our lives, the only thing we can do is to fight for a chance of survival for ourselves under Hugh Abraham's sniper attack."
After hearing what Geoffrey said, the sage frowned, his fingers clenched unconsciously, and his joints made a slight sound.
A deep gloom appeared on his handsome face, and his eyes fell sharply on the box garden in the hands of the silver-robed wizard.
He lowered his voice, suppressed his dissatisfaction, and changed the subject:
"Aren't you afraid of incurring the wrath of [Saint Genevieve] by stealing Fran's holy relics?"
When Qiao Frey heard this, he just smiled lightly, as if he didn't care.
He waved his hand casually, with a hint of joking in his tone:
"France Think Tank?"
"It can't care about me now.
The conflict between the Governor's Palace and the central government of France has heated up, and France is falling into a bottomless internal crisis.
The Governor-General's Palace had already proposed a surprising plan at the secret report meeting in Waterloo - they tried to split Fran's genealogy in two and support a new think tank [Saint Denis] in Huadu to replace [Saint Denis]. Genevieve] represents the totalitarian forces. ”
This secret hit the sage like thunder in his ears. His expression changed instantly, and his eyes were full of disbelief:
"One lineage, two think tanks... This is a precursor to split!"
"Flan, this is going to be a civil war!"
Joffrey raised his head, glanced at the gaffeed sage with some pity, and twitched the corner of his mouth with a sneer.
He said calmly:
"How much impact does it have on you whether there is a civil war or not? We are just pawns drifting in this storm."
After a pause, his tone turned low, and a trace of deep weariness flashed in his eyes:
"In the final analysis, all this is just the inevitable result of genealogy.
The original class division of the genealogy was to realize the circulation of classes and the transmission of talents up and down. However, Frank learned part of the three-level and nine-level system of the Kingdom of Heaven, but did not learn the essence. ”
Joffrey's tone was a bit sarcastic:
“There is also a more detailed division of three classes within the three-stage system of the Kingdom of Heaven, ensuring a dynamic balance between different levels.
And what about Fran? The three-level system was directly and crudely adopted, completely distorting the original design.
The master of the lineage enjoys almost unrestricted power; the first and second estates occupy a large number of privileges; the third estate assumes most of the obligations and does not even have room to breathe. ”
When he said this, his eyes became deeper:
"The original intention of the governor-general system is to alleviate this imbalance. First-class people promoted from the bottom are given the power to govern local hubs, forming a force independent of the central government.
However, most of the members of the [Cavalry] came from the local governor's palace, and they did not have a good impression of the elite dragoons and think tanks directly under the lineage master - [Saint Genevieve] sent many fatal missions to the local [Cavalry] ], the Governor's Mansion is all clear.
In the interpretation of the war, all the French who died were members of the Governor's Palace, but not a single one of their central government died.
The conflict between the local government and the central government has gradually intensified. The current leader of the lineage is old and unable to do what he wants, but he does not dare to let go, let alone pass away easily.
Because he is worried about the interference of external forces, including the Kingdom of Heaven, and because he is afraid that once he dies, France will fall into an unavoidable civil strife.
His old man released the immortal Black King just to intimidate him. But how long can this deterrent last? ”
"The current flange is like a bowstring that may break at any time, strong on the outside and dry on the inside. As for [Saint Genevieve] and [Saint Denis]? They are just two whirlpools in the storm, so I took the "Dragon's So what if I return home? They can’t spare their hands.”
While the silver-robed wizard was speaking, more paper model dragons of various colors and shapes appeared in the world of Box Garden.
"Get ready, "Dragon's Homecoming" has been activated, and there are still some Balrog experimental subjects in it; as well as the [Bottle that MC&D Company obtained from [Alakada], from the Hanged King... following the extremely evil person Zhongren·Yellow Change]..."
Click——
Following the vague words of the silver-robed wizard, changes began to occur within the world of Box Garden, and the paper model dragons also began to change.
