Chapter 136 Tracking Prey
For the girls around Duanmu Huai, this can almost be regarded as their first real visit to a different world.
Although An had been to the Empire with Duanmu Huai before, in fact, strictly speaking, the level of civilization in the Empire was not much different from that of Manalia, and it was also very similar. So for An, it's not so much going to a different world as it is going to another country.
But it's completely different here.
Completely different buildings, completely different civilization, everything is so new and interesting to the girls, at least, they have never seen any of this before.
"Mr. Knight, what is this black board?"
"TV can be used to watch programs."
"What is the program??"
"To put it simply, it is a screen that can be projected. You can see things in other places while sitting at home."
"You can actually do this without magic?!"
"Mr. Knight, why does this carriage have no horses? And why is the front pointed? Does anyone want this kind of carriage?"
"That's a sports car... To put it simply, it's a car that can run on its own without horses."
"There are obviously no horses? Is there really no magic in this world?!"
Different people have different concerns.
For example, Ogis was looking curiously at the Barbie dolls in the toy store. It was obvious that she didn't understand the meaning of such a palm-sized doll.
"Master, what are these dolls for?"
"It's just for children to play with, such as changing clothes or pretending to be a family drinking or something..."
"So that means that the hobby of people in this world is to change the clothes of dolls?"
"Hmm..."
Facing Ojis's curious eyes, Duanmuhuai was speechless for a moment.
Although strictly speaking, this is correct.
An had more questions, ranging from why it was possible to create light without magic to why it was possible to fly in the sky without magic... In response, Duan Muhuai gave her a pile of encyclopedias and asked her to read "One Hundred Thousand Whys" by herself. "Other than that, there's not much else to say.
On the contrary, Lorena's perspective was very strange. After she saw the statues of gods in this world, she curiously asked Duanmu Huai why the gods of this world did not save its people. After being told that there was no god to protect this planet, Lorena's eyes widened in surprise, looking at Duanmuhuai in disbelief.
"Obviously there is no god, and there is no protection or guidance, so why do they pray to the gods? Why does the church exist?"
Hmm…………This question is very heartbreaking…………
In fact, Duanmu Huai has encountered similar situations several times in the game. That is the conflict between technological civilization without the protection of gods and faith civilization with the protection of gods. Basically, for civilizations without the protection of gods, they fabricate gods to believe in. The vast majority of faith civilizations with god's protection are Express incomprehension.
Perhaps for those worlds without the protection of gods, the existence of gods just proves their faith and piety, and most of them dance in ecstasy.
But for a civilization protected by gods, this is very funny. Those who are more tolerant will at best not understand or take it as a joke, but if they are more serious, they might just launch a holy war and destroy these idiots.
Duanmu Huai once received a similar commission in the game, requesting to eliminate religious forces in a world without the protection of gods. The client's idea is very simple - you clearly have no protection from gods, but you still insist on making up a god and claiming to be one. It is omniscient and omnipotent. What kind of heresy is this?
Of course, strictly speaking, this was a suicide attempt by these religious idiots. After learning that there was a true God, they danced wildly with joy and couldn't wait to announce that the god they believed in and the true God were the same, but with different names. ——This is a normal thing in the godless religious world.
But when the religious civilization learned about this, they immediately became furious. In their view, this guy was just trying to put money on his face. He ran into the palace with a homeless man who came out of nowhere. What's the difference between claiming to be the emperor's illegitimate son?
It would be weird not to punish your nine tribes! !
So that religious civilization commissioned Duanmu Huai and other players to directly destroy this idiot religious force. They were too lazy to do it themselves... It would be too shameful for a prince and a tramp to do it, wouldn't it?
As a result, when the players broke into their headquarters, this group of religious people were still aggrieved. We are obviously very pious, and we also believe in that god. Why are they treating us like this...
In addition, there is another situation where when Li Gui meets Li Kui, certain forces like to use the guise of religion to brainwash the believers below to burn, kill, and loot. Players have been involved in such a war. At that time, a certain religious civilization was invaded by another civilization. The other party's costume could be said to be very awesome. What he shouted was for the true god to destroy the false god. For a while, the players really thought that the two gods were going to have a divine battle. Well, even the religious civilization here saw that the other party was coming fiercely, and sent its own envoys to resist the invader's attack together.
What people didn't expect was that these people shouted slogans loudly and killed ruthlessly, but they turned out to be completely weak. They rushed to the opponent's home planet like chopping melons and vegetables, and finally discovered that the so-called true god of this civilization's belief He's just a mutant with four eyes, eroded by psychic energy... These things are sold by the ton underground in the hive city, okay?
To put it simply, there are three types of civilizations regarding faith in this universe.
One type is indeed blessed by the true God and believes in the true God. For example, the Yajin people who believe in elemental elves, the Holy City who believe in heaven, or the empire who believe in Sigma all belong to the category where there are real people above. This kind of dealing with each other is quite convenient. As long as the gods they believe in can reach an agreement, everything will be fine down there.
There is also a materialistic civilization that does not believe in gods. These civilizations generally rarely conflict with faith-based civilizations. In their view, the gods in faith-based civilizations are actually some kind of existence beyond the transcendent dimension. Of course, they also admit that The power of this kind of existence is just that it does not worship the other party as some kind of omniscient and omnipotent god who created the world.
The third type is like some civilizations that clearly have no gods, but still fabricate a god out of thin air to worship, and even act in the name of the forged god. This result will either be regarded as a lunatic, or Li Gui will meet Li Kui and be beaten by the latter until he cannot take care of himself...
However, most of the gods believed in by the religious civilization that can transcend the gravity well and enter the star sea are from the order camp. Under the premise of a unified front against chaos, these gods will not deliberately attack each other.
On the contrary, those civilizations that originally believed in false gods can easily be bewitched by evil gods after stepping into the starry sky. If they are just stupid, they are afraid that they will believe the lies of the incarnation of the evil god, and then they will be doomed. ………
Human civilization like this is the best portrayal.
If UAC hadn't been bewitched by demons, this planet wouldn't have been on the brink of destruction.
Of course, thanks to this being the original demon, if it were the God of Disease or the God of Desire, then probably... Duanmu Huai would be able to issue an extermination order with the authority of the Inquisitor.
As for Feilin's focus, it's also strange.
Perhaps it was the inertia of staying in the ice tower all year round. At this moment, the dragon girl was sitting on a chair, looking at something that looked like a travel brochure in front of her. Although Feilin still looked expressionless, she looked at it. Judging by her swishing tail and the girl's entranced expression, it can be seen that she seems to like this kind of thing.
"Do you like watching this?"
Duanmuhuai curiously looked at the travel brochure in Feilin's hand and asked. Logically speaking, Feilin couldn't understand the writing in this world. However, Feilin was very concerned about travel brochures, where even if you couldn't read the text, you could still read about the scenery and delicacies from various places.
"………………"
Hearing Duanmuhuai's inquiry, Feilin raised her head and looked at him, silent for a moment, and then nodded slightly.
“Various places, very interesting.”
"Then after things are settled here, do you want to go on a trip? Traveling to various places and seeing the local scenery is also a good pastime."
"………………"
Hearing this, Feilin thought for a moment again and shook her head.
"If you don't want to, go out."
“……………………”
Damn it, this guy has reached a new level.
"My lord."
At this moment, a night guard quietly appeared beside Duanmu Huai.
"We have found the location of the three hell wizards, and Queen Meck is also there!!"
"Oh?" Duanmu Huai's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Very good!"
Having said this, Duanmu Huai walked out of the store and shouted loudly.
"Ogis, Ann, Gulea, Lorena, Feline, get ready to go, we are going to find the culprit to settle the score!!"
At the same time, a solemn atmosphere was spreading in the UAC's frontline base.
This base that once belonged to humans has now become a product of flesh and blood. Tentacles like blood vessels spread all around. Looking around, the wall skeleton originally made of steel and concrete was covered with blood and blasphemous words.
However, at this moment, the three men standing in the center showed bitter and solemn expressions.
They are none other than the former Yajin monks - now, they have completely abandoned their own race and civilization and become subordinates of the Mek tribe and the devil.
"How could this happen!!"
The hell priest holding the scepter stared with bloodshot eyes and murmured in a low voice. They only realized something was wrong when they discovered that the ghost army of the Night Guard entered the battlefield. Logically speaking, the Night Guards should have all become fuel for Yajin energy in hell. So where did these Night Guards come from?
The uneasy Hell Priests contacted Hell, and were surprised to find that the Yajin Energy Factory originally in Hell had been destroyed? !
Who did this? What's going on?
The Hell Priests looked confused, but the problem is not here now. The problem is that - the imprisoned elemental elves have escaped, and the Yajin energy factory has been destroyed. Without Yajin energy output, Queen Meike will inevitably They are about to face the final outcome of their clan.
die.
"Don't worry!!"
Looking at the expressions of his companions, the other hell priest paused the scepter in his hand.
"Currently, our assimilation of this planet has reached the final stage. As long as these damn invaders are completely eliminated, then this planet can be assimilated into hell like the Ring of Nuer. At that time, we can continue Create sub-gold energy! Those night guards are not worth mentioning at all, they are just a remnant soul guarded by the elemental elves! As long as..."
However, just when the hell priest was trying to cheer him up impassionedly, suddenly, the metal door behind him was suddenly knocked open, and the thick door panel flew over with a roar, and hit the hell priest mercilessly. The poor hell priest flew out like a fly hit by a fly swatter, hit the wall and turned into a puddle of flesh and blood.
Seeing this scene, the other two hell priests were shocked. They hurriedly clenched their scepters and tried to escape. However, at the same time, a shining magic circle suddenly appeared, locking the two of them in place.
"You have no chance, lackeys of Chaos."
Duanmu Huai held the thunder hammer tightly and strode in from the door. Behind him, An Zheng hummed a tune, raised his right hand, and a miniature binding circle was formed in it.
At this moment, in front of Duanmu Huai, looking at the tall and terrifying existence in front of them, the two hell priests also looked pale. You must know that before falling into hell, they were Dia monks of the Yajin people, so they naturally know the history of the Yajin people very well. And the mysterious being in front of them wearing terrifying armor, with the skull and bloody cross on the armor, to them, was like a demon god coming out of ancient myths and legends, which was unbelievable.
"You...you...you are..."
One of the hell priests raised his hand tremblingly and pointed at Duanmu Huai. However, before he finished speaking, the next moment he saw the hell priest directly stretched out his hand to cover his chest, then rolled his eyes and fell limply to the ground. Turned into a corpse.
"Wow...!"
Seeing this scene, An's expression changed, and then she hurriedly approached Gu Leiya and Lorena.
"Look, Mr. Knight is really scary!"
"Uh..."
"Ahahaha..."
Hearing the wry smiles and whispers of the girls from behind, Duanmu Huai's face turned cold. He forced himself to act as if he hadn't heard anything and walked straight towards the last remaining hell priest.
Facing Duanmu Huai's arrival, the last hell priest stared at him with unbelievable shock in his eyes.
"Astartes... I used to think that it was just a legend... If you came to this world earlier, then maybe..."
"You chose to give up."
Duanmuhuai walked up to the hell priest and stared at him.
"In the end, you just succumbed to the lackeys of Chaos. No excuse can hide your cowardice and stupidity. There is no place for those who are weak-willed or indecisive. Only by relying on firm actions and beliefs can humans survive. No matter how great the sacrifice is, No betrayal should be too small.”
“You………………!”
However, before the Hell Priest finished speaking, Duanmu Huai suddenly raised his left hand, clenched his fist, and punched the Hell Priest!
"Bang!"
The next moment, the hell priest's head was directly smashed into the body by Duanmu Huai, and then he fell to the ground without a sound without a sound.
"Wow!"
Seeing this, Lorena and An both shrank their heads in fear.
However, at this moment...a voice sounded.
"Your resistance is meaningless."
Along with these words, a flash of light was seen in the teleporter in front, and then, a huge woman nearly ten meters tall, who looked like a robot made of machines, appeared from it. She stared at Duanmu Huai, with no emotion in her golden eyes.
"This is an opportunity for humans to repent and serve us. You cannot disobey me, Queen Mek."
"That's not certain."
Staring at Queen Meike in front of her, Duanmu Huai clenched her war hammer. Queen Meck also raised her hands and stared at him angrily.
"We have existed for thousands of years! Others must make sacrifices for our prosperity so that they can be saved! And you, a mere mortal, dare to openly challenge our traditions? Why don't you kneel down like them? In front of me, praying for the right to survive? Do you think that you can fight against the messengers of the God who created all things by relying on the mortals around you? ”
"You're just an alien, but you dare to talk nonsense in front of me?"
Duanmuhuai stared at Queen Meike, and a shining red light burst out from his helmet.
"You dare to tarnish the purity of mankind and lure them into the abyss of darkness and chaos. You are already unforgivable. Only purification and destruction can put an end to your crimes! Sympathy only belongs to the servants of the Emperor, and only aliens deserve it. Get our scorn and die!”
"Stupid mortal!!"
Hearing Duanmu Huai's words, Queen Meike roared angrily, then she opened her arms, and with Queen Meike's movements, a pair of golden wings emerged behind her.
"You will never be able to kill me, I will give you pain and judgment that you will never imagine!!"
"This is what I should say, alien bastard!"
Duanmu Huai raised the war hammer in his hand high, with thunder flashing and electric light flowing on it.
"For the sake of humanity, I will make you understand what the wrath of the Emperor is!"
