Pirate Kingship.

Chapter 713 Countdown: Spark of Civilization, King of the Outer Realm

beep--!
An extremely large steam locomotive with a strong aura flashing was speeding on a section of light rails half submerged in the water of the Great Lakes. The splashing water was reflected by the setting sun into a gorgeous purple-red color.

The children followed Byron and stepped out of the "Sun Fortress" aircraft carrier, and instantly arrived at an empty carriage.

He didn't have time to appreciate the scenery outside the window, but looked around in confusion.

After hearing the shouting of the children in other carriages, George, the fifth child, who had a bump on his head in addition to the two colorful dragon horns, touched his head:

“This seems to be one of the annual wizarding back-to-school express trains?

Twelve express trains run through all human settlements around the world, sending children who are interested in the path of black magic to the major schools in the Corridor of Truth.

But we graduated from the Origin Holy Lance School when we were eight years old. Why did Dad bring us here? Isn't he going to send us back to school?"

The sixth brother, Sebastian, stuck out his forked tongue and looked miserable:
"No, I don't want to play with those silly little brats.

They begged me to teach them to speak snake language all day long, but when I was about to perform a minor surgery on their tongues, they ran away faster than rabbits.

If you want to become stronger but are unwilling to take even one blow, you really have no willpower."

While the two brothers were talking, the special train gradually stopped at the Cui Yu Lu School station.

A large number of dark wizards in robes walked off the train carrying boxes. The train then restarted and disappeared into the material world again along a light railway.

[Stephenson Steam Locomotive and Railway Network] was a quasi-zero-level relic when it was first born. With the completion of the intercontinental railway network in recent years, it has undoubtedly become a wonder of civilization and a zero-level relic.

The existing [Land Freight King] and [Underground Railway Network] capabilities have been greatly improved, and a new ability has been gained: [Star Torch Lighthouse]!
There is no need to build special railways. As long as a Star Torch lighthouse and a station are built at any location including the collective subconscious and the Sea of ​​​​Source, the locomotives of the First Empire of the Sun can arrive instantly.

Wherever there is source tidal energy coverage, 99% of the energy consumption is provided by the source sea, and the operating cost is even cheaper than sea transportation.

The special train then passed the nearby Clock Tower School and Prism School, and finally arrived at the Holy Lance School of Origin, where the last batch of wizard apprentices got off.

Byron still sat there without moving.

The second demigod of the Holy Lance School of Origin [Fairy] Rigel and the third pseudo-god [Murderous Doctor] Robert came to the carriage where they were and took away a batch of red gems with unique runes in the middle from Byron.

And solemnly promise:

"Your Majesty, we will quickly select a sufficient number of elite personnel, complete their transformation surgery, and assemble a full 220,000-man Royal Guard Knights for the Sons of God."

Byron specifically instructed:

"Don't forget, the ratio of men to women must be 50-50, and the core members must be around 20 years old. No matter how strong they are, we won't accept those who are too old."

When the children saw this scene, they realized that their father's appearance was not a sudden impulse, but he came here specifically to do business.

The title of “King of Sai” might not be a joke.

Because they and all the brothers and sisters of the Lancaster royal family have joined the Origin Holy Lance School, and they all know the true identity of those gems - the blood curse.

In order to compete with the mechanical soldiers, the killer doctor and Ms. Leech initially developed twenty-two transformation surgeries for the biochemical warriors (Chapter 573).

After being rejected by Byron, they finally developed the "Blood Curse" which is not so anti-human but has greater growth potential.

The only drawback is that the person providing the curse needs to master the forbidden knowledge of the "Origin Holy Spear School".

This is also a forbidden book that belongs exclusively to Byron, the human god-king!
[Holy Spear of Origin] can penetrate all ethnic barriers and mental barriers. It represents the bloodline classic that can best touch the essence of the extraordinary species, as well as the most powerful force to gather people.

It is a perfect path developed by standing on the shoulders of all predecessors.

Moreover, unlike other schools of thought, the ultimate [Truth Manifestation] cannot be seen at a glance.

For the members of the school, once they choose a research direction, as long as there are unexplored worlds and unknown populations, there will be inexhaustible biological resources for their growth.

They are best at gaining nutrients from overseas development.

All children of the House of Lancaster followed this route.

After learning the blood curse, everyone will receive a full-strength Knight Guard of at least 10,000 men from Byron.

Including armored corps, air force, and a large fleet mainly composed of aircraft carrier strike groups, it can form an independent long-range combat unit.

Even relying on perfect staffing and artificial intelligence, he can restart civilization on his own!
At the same time, after obtaining the unique curse, all members of the Knights Temperament can share a little bit of Byron's infinitely evolving [Evolution Factor] and his "transformation" from these sons of God.

Greatly improve your own potential, strengthen your physical, spiritual and combat capabilities.

They can also adapt to various extremely harsh environments and extraterritorial spaces. Even in a world without a legal network or a local area network like "Collecting Missing Materials to Make Thick Cotton", they can cooperate with their respective masters to exert the strongest collective power.

As soon as the children learned the relevant knowledge, Byron ordered the recruitment of spiritually awakened people to form a core team for them that could fight tough battles.

The [Blood Curse] just handed over to Rigel and Robert belongs to the seventh to eleventh brothers.

The Luoyan Era is getting closer and closer, and the material world is sliding towards the Sea of ​​​​Source, which is not only bad but also good.

At least the number of extraordinary people has experienced explosive growth with the tide of source essence and the blessing of national titles.

The source tide is becoming more and more active, and it is becoming easier and easier for humans to awaken and break through their ranks. With the same population and willpower, more and more high-sequence transcendents can be supported.

The label of "low magic world" will also be gone forever.

The entire material world will soon return to the end of the mythological era, an era when demigods were everywhere and false gods were worse than dogs.

However, the number of humans, their education level, and their productivity have already surpassed those at the end of the mythological era by eight hundred miles, resulting in a qualitative change in civilization. The strong momentum of development has secretly frightened even humans themselves.

In the past, anyone who reached the middle sequence was considered a backbone force, but now legends and false gods are popping up like mushrooms after rain.

But everyone knows that the collective subconscious is the ship on which humanity lives, and the human emperor is the captain of this world.

If the hull is not strong enough and the navigation skills are not sophisticated enough, it will not be that "rising water lifts all boats" but "rising water tips all boats over".

Therefore, the stronger and wiser human beings become, the more fanatical their belief in the "Human Emperor" becomes. The four words "the world belongs to all" have created countless true believers who put it into practice.

In the words of Byron's previous life:
"If you make friends for the sake of profit, you will alienate them when there is no profit; if you make friends for the sake of a person's power, you will break off the friendship with him when there is no power.

If you make friends because of a person's beauty, then when that person's beautiful appearance fades, others' favor will change; if you make friends because of morality, that will not change even if eternity passes."

In addition, the Knights Guard who joined the Sons of God were supported by the royal finances and received better treatment than the three armies of the empire. They also had no worries about not being able to gather an elite guard force of just 22 people.

Although Byron did not explicitly state the true purpose of this force, the children all had some guesses. They stopped playing around and waited until the train started again, then sat down in their seats obediently.

He quietly watched his father handling government affairs that required his signature.

"To alleviate the drought, the rain god is summoned, and there will be rain in the Great Lakes basin tomorrow.

At 32.3: a.m., there were clouds, thunder at : a.m., rain at : a.m., and the rain stopped at : p.m., with a total rainfall of mm.

"Notify the God of Fertility that the population growth rate of the Corridor of Truth must reach 3.7% this year in accordance with the target set at the beginning of the year. If it is not achieved, the performance of that year will be deducted."

The book in Byron's hand that was automatically turning pages was not an ordinary magic book, but a book that recorded all the taboos in this world, and even the [Key of Omniscience] that recorded all the knowledge.

Bagasse paper has long dominated the text carrier market, and this quasi-zero-level holy relic has naturally also completed its transformation.

In addition to the initial ability [Four Things in the Book], the new ability is called [Omniscience], which allows Byron to master any information, skills and extraordinary abilities of the human race!

The entire human race has become a member of the pantheon.

For example: No matter where a human being lives in the world, as long as he or she is spiritually awakened, his or her name will automatically appear on the list and he or she will be taken to an academy for study by relevant institutions.

It is also because of the existence of this book that the old gods' plan to train true believers to steal immortal divinity has completely failed.

Whenever humans plot to endanger their species or become corrupt and rebellious, their names will appear on the list.

A few years ago, he was jealous of his wife Meganella and daughter Jacqueline, and secretly joined his uncle, Count Torredor, who was a member of the Old Gods. He was then used by Leviathan, the rift whale that symbolizes [jealousy]. He successfully stole Leviathan's immortality from the Pantheon, and was then devoured by Byron, who was well prepared.

By the way, he ate the Leviathan's body outside the world. An old god ate it twice. His rich accumulation had long surpassed the demigod level in the conventional sense.

Unfortunately, the old gods are not fools.

When two similar accidents happened later, the old gods discovered that Byron was able to jump out and intercept at the last moment when someone was trying to steal the immortal divinity.

No one will waste time and effort on such thankless tasks anymore.

Leaving it in the Pantheon is just temporary safekeeping by the Creator, but stealing it out will be a complete waste of time and it will never come back.

Just as Lucifer said, they can fail countless times, and it's nothing more than waiting ten more years.

Anyway, they already have the [Enemy Son] Belia, and Lucifer who has regained his immortal divinity, and after merging with their original bodies, they can immediately return to the throne of true God.

Coupled with [Fallen Legion, Mark of the Beast] and [Seven Deadly Sins], it is more than enough to kill the demigod Byron, even the invincible demigods of the same level will be no exception.

Just like they didn't believe that Byron could control the flood, they also didn't believe that without the guidance of their predecessors, the seventh-level threshold that took them thousands of years to cross would be crossed by a human who was less than 100 years old.

This also concealed the real killer that Byron had arranged outside the world. Until now, the gods have not discovered that the seven deadly sins have undergone a "major change".

Snapped!
When Byron finished his government affairs, he raised his hand and snapped his fingers. The steam locomotive immediately jumped out of the material world and ran rapidly along a path of starlight.

This time the jump was exceptionally long, so long that the children soon realized that the train might have already left its original world.

After three full hours, when the colorful lights around them disappeared, they couldn't help but open their mouths wide when they saw what appeared in front of them.

There is land and sea here, but all the vegetation and animals are glowing with brilliant five-color fluorescence.

The animals are particularly strange. They are not bilaterally symmetrical like humans. Instead, most of them have five eyes, five limbs, five pairs of wings, and their heads are shaped like five-pointed stars.

The brothers and sisters turned to look at the fifth brother [Five-Colored Dragon King] George and found that his style of painting surprisingly matched these creatures.

Obviously, this is not the brain-eating demon world upstream, nor is it the first insect man world downstream.

But it is the boundary that Byron is currently exploring!
Over the past decade, Byron's exploration outside the world has never ended. The branches of the lower reaches of the Styx are countless, and the connected worlds are as numerous as the stars in the sky.

He had traveled along the criss-crossing Styx webways to hundreds of worlds with life, but there were not many worlds with primitive intelligent creatures, only about twenty in total.

This is one of them. Unfortunately, the carbon dioxide content in the air is seriously exceeded and ordinary people cannot survive at all. However, it is not a big problem for their family and the transformed soldiers who have received the [Blood Curse].

When the third brother Amon saw this new world and combined it with what Byron had said before, he couldn't help but blurt out:
"Dad, you were joking when you said you wanted to make Old Five the King of the Planets. A governor of a colonized planet is so cool!"

Byron shook his head:
“Not just George. Once the Royal Guards Knights and the Aircraft Carrier Strike Group are fully equipped, all of you will have to leave the Mother World and become the King of a different world.

[Ghost Cruise] can ensure that you have the ability to protect yourself even if you encounter a major flood.

I can slowly lay down roots in these worlds where extraordinary powers have not yet fully awakened, strengthen the twenty-two paths, and help me when I counterattack the world's will!"

After hearing this, Amon, George, and Sebastian, three young men who were as lawless as Byron, immediately cheered and patted their chests to promise:
"Dad, leave it to us brothers and make sure we complete the task!"

They have always wanted to go out on adventures like their father did when he was young, but the entire mother world has been named Lancaster, which is not exciting at all.

They never dreamed that their father would assign each of them a completely undeveloped planet and let them paint as they pleased.

Some people want to escape from their original families, but some original families give each of their children a habitable planet as a coming-of-age gift.

“We love Daddy!”

Victoria, Vivian and Nut, three thoughtful little girls, were different from their brothers. They stepped forward and hugged their father's waist or held his hands, with red eyes.

"dad."

They obviously think deeper than those brats.

Don’t be fooled by Dad’s confidence all the time, acting like he’s the boss all day long.

But the opponent is the will of the world that almost perished together with the three human gods before it. Who dares to say that they will win 100% in the end?

And if they fail, perhaps their father, mother and many others will die, but they will most likely be able to survive by relying on these colonized planets.

The Knights Guards are like the spark of human civilization, able to take root in 22 worlds. The [Blood Curse] also guarantees their safety and prevents any internal rebellion.

Byron had taken all the problems into consideration for them.

But they would rather have nothing and just hope their parents are safe.

Byron patted his precious daughters' heads and said nothing more.

In fact, in addition to leaving a way out for his children, there was another reason that made him change his initial rough plan of flooding the country with funds and diverting the blame.

He raised his head and activated [Divine Vision] with all his strength. At the end of his perception, he vaguely saw that in a certain branch world, another group of human ancestors were born.

They had established primitive tribes and patriarchal clans, learned how to make fire by drilling wood and grow crops, but the key was the black hair and yellow skin that Byron loved so much.

Some sighed and murmured in my heart:
"The 'Triple Point', the medium for the invasion of the Sea of ​​Essence, is located in the cracks of space.

It will infect the entire world equally, including the material world on the positive side and the world of the dead on the negative side.

If it flows in from the River Styx, it will first strengthen the underworld, so that the world will of these worlds will be dominated by intelligent creatures from the beginning. It can be said that human way is the way of heaven!

You don’t have to face the runaway will of the world like we did.

It is much easier for them to survive the doomsday than for us. In fact, if I can successfully control the water, maybe they won’t have another world-destroying flood.

This is the only thing I can do for you.”

Byron made arrangements for the backup plan and began to make all-out preparations for Luo Yanji's arrival.

In the year 1488 of the Silver Age, the edge of the world, which was not much smaller than the sunny side, was finally completely conquered.

Cousin Edward and his father, Prince Thornburg, recruited various undead creatures and established a huge undead empire, which also incorporated the Lower Desert Empire ruled by Osiris, the God of the Underworld.

In the year 1489 of the Silver Age, temples and sanctuaries were transformed or built on both the Yin and Yang sides of the world.

It is required to be able to withstand an earthquake of magnitude 8 and accommodate all current population.

In the year 1490 of the Silver Age, Catherine relied on the fertility power of the [Four Basic Elements: Earth] to give birth to Byron's 21st and 22nd children, finally completing all 22 paths.

Among them, Violet gave birth to six, Cleopatra gave birth to seven, and Catherine gave birth to nine.

The twenty-two flower paths on the inverted tree produced 22 fruits, and each of the Sons of God became a part of the inverted tree.

It is equivalent to the birth of a new race of gods from the human race.

The foundation of everything for the God-King Byron is the original "one". Perhaps we can call them: the original gods.

But after that, it seemed as if there was some kind of rule that restricted Byron and the queens, no matter how hard they tried, they could not break the upper limit of 22.

In fact, even if we look through the history of all the gods, there is not a single god-king with such rich accumulation that his direct descendants can reach the upper limit of 22.

Unless they are willing to find a mortal woman to give birth to a human-god hybrid.

At this point, all the elements of the Upside-Down Tree - three pillars, four worlds, ten essences, and twenty-two paths - are basically complete, with only the last one missing - Lucifer, one of the seven deadly sins, [Pride]!
Time quickly came to the summer of 1493 in the Silver Age.

Rumble.
Byron was practicing swordplay with Catherine in Ganquan Palace as usual.

When I looked up, I found that endless dark clouds were rising from the depths of the Sea of ​​Monsters, rapidly sweeping across the entire material world, as if there was a hole in the sky, and heavy rain fell without any warning.

Then the rain started falling and never stopped!
