"Okay, don't give it away. The teleportation circle is at the door. Although I am older, my legs are not that bad."
In the Starting Point Galaxy, Jetrum Star Domain, and Mycroft stationed in the Multi-Galaxy Void Fortress Community, a simple party dinner was being held in a separately designated rest area.
The rest area is very large, and with the help of space magic, it can accommodate more than two hundred people. This mask is simply too spacious for the number of people in this gathering. After all, no matter how you calculate it, there are not many people who are familiar with a certain legendary warrior. Probably more than two hundred.
At this time, the party had come to an end, and many people were already preparing to leave. After Joshua clinked glasses with Bishop Artanis, he drank the wine in one gulp. After that, this man had already decided to go The old priest who was studying in the church headquarters and trying to advance to the ultimate level said goodbye to the warrior, and the warrior and the two clerics, Saya and Robzek, sent him to the teleportation circle at the door.
Looking back, Joshua looked around the entire rest area. This party was very successful, and all the guests and hosts were very happy. It was a pity that Israel, Loranda, and Hill did not come. As a god, the strong man is now defining his own territory in the boundless heaven with the assistance of the other six gods. The latter, because of his new status as a legend, took on a diplomatic mission and is probably still wandering in the abyss of another world at this time.
As for the elf druid Hill, because he has now become the leader of a large elf tribe, he is still working hard in the world of Mycroft. In addition, the time of Joshua's gathering was too sudden, and he could not spare the time at all. Hill couldn't spare the time, which meant that Ms. Heronfina couldn't spare the time either. The couple regretted missing this gathering, but Joshua felt it didn't matter. After all, as long as the warrior wanted, he could be in many forms at any time. , communicating with various friends, but this is a bit disrespectful.
Nowadays, many people have left. The two elders Artanis and Nostradamus have their own work and cannot stay until too late. Although Eagle and the four fairy queens came to fight on the way, He said hello, but he didn't stay long, after all, their work would only get busier. As for the seventh prince Alva, it was not that he was unwilling to be gregarious, but that Nostradamus, his father’s teacher, wanted to take him to prepare for special training, and neither Joshua nor he could refuse easily.
The Brandons and his two daughters originally planned to stay until the end, but the two children, Remy and Fran, have also grown up. Both of them are studying at the Wallachia branch of Winterburg College, and their grades are very good. Excellent, now one person plans to go to the Empire's External Exploration Department and become a member of the exploration team after graduation, while the other person plans to join the Void Air Force and become a battleship captain. Because of this idea, the couple hopes that they can develop steadily. The man and his daughters were having a bit of an unpleasant quarrel, but this was a normal conflict between parents and children. At this point, Joshua couldn't give any advice. He could only have a few more drinks with Brandon, and then send the new legend away with his sad-faced father.
After all, no matter how sharp the sword is, it can't cut through the heart of this old father.
"It's almost time for us to leave."
Sister Saya and the leader of the Holy Knights, Robzek, were sending Bishop Artanis away with Joshua. The two priests were also preparing to leave. After all, it would be rest time later, and neither of them stayed overnight. plan - after all, they are actually busy people. The monastery and the knights have a lot of things to do, not to mention that it is still a stable development period to open up the galaxy. It is the time when hard work is needed. Joshua will naturally not refuse and hug each other in turn. Then we said goodbye.
Among those who are still left, Priest is standing by the window with Soul looking at the empty scenery. His sister Britney is sleeping on the sofa wearing Priest's coat, and the same Lisa was also asleep. The dragon girl held the little girl in her arms. Her big tail covered the two of them, looking very warm.
At this time, Hei was still cleaning up the remaining food at the banquet. Xiaoguang was also sitting on top of Hei's head. From time to time, he stretched out a light tentacle to stir in the sauce of the food. He seemed to be having a lot of fun - Joshua had been doing it before. She was not allowed to play - and the dwarf Nick was also sitting at the dinner table. He did not eat. Instead, he took out a recipe book and seemed to be taking notes.
Ivan, Amira, Karin, Clark (knight), Said (priest) and Wayne (mage) were discussing issues about the gold level realm at a small table nearby, but because there were three of them He is a mage, so the clergyman and the knight can only face each other and play fairy cards - judging from the notes on their faces, the clergyman loses more and wins less, but he is in a good mood, and although the knight He won a lot, but his expression seemed disgusting.
"Fine control! Hahahaha!"
"Shit!"
On the other side, Constantine (the alchemist) was chasing the Syndicate for the contact number of the mental terminal. This made the Balrog repeatedly reiterate that he was a man, but Joshua could see that the alchemist was not interested in appearance at all. , but the syndicate's peculiar life essence of abyssal slime - although it seems that they are pursuing genetic material, it is obvious that the alchemist's means and purposes are not the same as what ordinary people think.
No. 3 just chatted with Joshua for a long time, but later left because he needed to analyze the information about the knowledge receiver. The only thing left in the rest area was a magic projection floating in the air, with very little computing power invested. , it only moves when poked, and usually floats like a glowing balloon. Hotaru and Rin were communicating with No. 1 in "sizzling" sounds. Joshua could understand what they were saying. They were discussing when to move the Lord's Mansion to the void base. By then, No. 1 could transform into a void battleship. , dragging the Lord's Mansion and flying in the void.
"Zizzi, zizizi!" (Excellent idea)
"Zizz, sizzle, sizzle!" (A seamless plan)
"Zizzizi, zizizizi?" (But, will the master agree?)
is it necessary
Joshua couldn't help but want to laugh. Send the lord's mansion into the void? If they can think of it, and it's not in the lord's palace in Moldavia, what's the point? What he said was like a lord without a lord...
…
Wait... According to this statement, it seems that he, the lord who is away from Moldavia most of the time, has no meaning
Time always passes quickly. Joshua doesn’t care about where his students sleep. They are all adults and it’s time to learn to take charge of their own affairs. It’s like a soldier introducing his students to After several methods of reaching the ultimate goal, the next thing depends on their own efforts. As a teacher, Joshua can at most provide them with some conveniences.
However, just when Joshua was about to eliminate this incarnation and focus his attention threads back to his true body, Priest and Lisa, who seemed to have just woken up, walked up to the side, followed by the Syndicate and the Alchemist. In fact, Ivan, Amira, knights, mages, and priests all came over, and Karin and Nick also stood aside with eager eyes.
"What's the matter, you little guys?"
The warrior could tell at a glance that his students who had gathered here must have some questions to ask. He canceled the process of his dissipation and looked at the group of young people curiously: "Is it possible to advance to the ultimate level? , do you still have any doubts?"
Joshua's teachings were never kept private. Whether it was his advanced skills, his experience of the ultimate intention of power, or his later thoughts on the ultimate intention of the soul, he taught them all without reservation. Logically speaking, with the IQs of these little guys who are considered geniuses, there will definitely be no doubts.
"That's not the problem, teacher."
The first person to speak was Karin. This knight's daughter, who was probably too invested in studying spells recently, had very heavy dark circles under her eyes. She coughed first, then breathed again, and said softly: "Just now, we were discussing After advancing to the ultimate level, I wondered what I wanted to do in the future, and then I accidentally started talking about future development."
"Yes. It is impossible for the number of legendary powerhouses to suddenly increase in the next ten years. In the foreseeable future, the most powerful people will be the backbone of the top management. Judging from the current momentum, when our group of people advance After achieving the ultimate goal, I'm afraid he will be sent to various vassal states and protectorates to serve as local governors."
The next person to speak was Nick. This dwarf's beard has grown very long. In terms of appearance alone, Joshua may not be as mature as him, but Nick's voice can still be heard. He is a relatively young dwarf. Young man: "So, we just discussed these satellite countries that the fleet has conquered recently."
Mycroft United Fleet has recently gained nominal vassals from many void civilizations. Generally speaking, several void civilizations around the space-time hub will actively or be forced to become vassals of the Mycrov civilization. After all, the space-time hub cannot tolerate There is a loss, and the Mycrof civilization's attack force around the time and space hub is also very powerful. Therefore, for the sake of its own survival and to obtain more benefits, many civilizations chose to surrender to the Starfall Era.
Of course, these civilizations have also been promoted to exchange systems and repair light pillars, and the Mycroft civilization will also send a team of extraordinary people to nominally station in these countries. In fact, all of these countries are autonomous regions, and those extraordinary teams are essentially just guards protecting the hub of time and space.
Joshua naturally knew that his students came over and asked what these meant - the answer was obvious.
They have already guessed what the current top management of Mycroft wants to do in the next ten years.
"Lords, you plan to use the 'exchange system' to gradually invade the internal economic systems of these void civilizations, and use powerful extraordinary force as a threat to sell the 'goods' of our Mycrof civilization."
The mage pushed up his glasses. Although he was not a student directly accepted by Joshua, as a member of the elite team, he could be regarded as half an anonymous disciple of the warrior. At this time, he confidently speculated: "If this continues , within ten years, these seemingly independent void empires will become our real vassals. Driven by the extremely convenient exchange system, they will lose a considerable part of their industrial production capacity. But anything that can be easily exchanged things, then the local related industrial system will inevitably collapse, because Lord, you follow a truly equivalent exchange and do not charge any processing, labor fees, or even taxes!"
Joshua's face was expressionless and he couldn't deny it, but he didn't let these people stop talking. The next person who answered was Priest, who had been talking to Suer beside him from just now. The young warrior who explained the relevant issues whispered: "Some civilizations may be alert, but it's useless. As long as they don't dare to confront the Mycroft civilization or confront you, teacher, then they will never dare to ban exchanges. system, and if this continues, part of their industrial system, or even a large part of it, will collapse because of the more convenient exchange system, and their people will become servants of Mycroft civilization, working for us and donating resources. Before you know it, you will completely lose your sovereignty.”
This caused everyone to nod in agreement.
"That's very well said."
Seeing that no one answered for the moment, Joshua couldn't help but nodded. He clapped his hands and agreed: "You are right. This is indeed the method that the old pope, the seven gods and I came up with... Of course, I There is also a little selfishness and a little plan, but overall, what you said is right."
"However." At this point, Joshua changed the topic and said in a deep voice: "I heard that you don't seem to agree with this plan."
Suddenly, there was silence in the hall.
"How could it be? Although it sounds a bit cold and cruel, it even makes people want to ask, 'Will they only be like this in the future?' This is a bit too sympathetic question."
At this time, it was Lisa's crisp reply that broke the silence. The dragon girl lowered her voice, as if she didn't want to affect Britney who was sleeping behind her: "However, there is nothing we can do about it -"
"After all, the evil god is coming in a few decades."
This sentence was picked up by Syndicate. Enma's expression was very serious at this time.
Whether they are Joshua's students or Joshua's first 'saint', everyone present is a model of the next generation of extraordinary elites of the Mycroft civilization. They have long known about the existence of the evil god, and they also know about the evil god. News coming soon.
"It's just that, even if it is to fight against the evil god, uniting the power of many civilizations to resist should be better than us forcibly gathering the resources of other civilizations and working hard alone, right?"
It was only then that Priest really raised his doubts: "Teacher, I can't figure it out. These civilizations -" He stretched out his hand and pointed to the void outside the window: "Although these civilizations have certain technical capabilities, , may not be as good as us who have obtained the legacy of the Glorious Era, but their military force is also unique. If they are called upon to fight against the evil god in the future, the resistance they provide as individual individuals will definitely be greater than if the industrial system is destroyed. A vassal!"
And no matter what, more than ten years will not allow the Mycrof civilization to completely digest these vassals... Even merging territories is a big project. Look at the Sharts, Shepherds and Abyss Demons, they are still independent now Outside of the core of the expedition fleet, this is true for these extremely cooperative civilizations, not to mention those otherworldly galactic civilizations that may be malicious.
"Moreover, this seems to eliminate the possibility of future progress of these civilizations..." Ivan and his sister nodded together and whispered to themselves: "We have all used the exchange system. It is really convenient and easy to use... But because of this, sometimes when I want to do some experiments by myself, I don’t want to do many steps myself, but directly ask the exchange system for help.”
Amira followed closely: "Yes, for some experiments and productions, if there is similar information in the unified information database, I can even directly exchange it for real products. Sometimes, there is no need to even do the experiments, because the predecessors The information left behind contains ready-made data that has been directly completed... This is definitely not a good thing for the accumulation of experience and the blooming of ideological sparks! If this continues, these civilizations will basically be considered abolished.
As long as no one can defeat you, teacher, then no one will dare to resist the exchange system, and if no one dares to stop it, then they are destined to become slaves of the 'exchange system' in the future! "
Compared with the derivatives of the legendary giant god who possess the power of steel, even the industrial system of a void civilization will never be able to win. Whatever the latter can create, the former can create, and what the latter cannot create, The former can also be produced - and it is pollution-free, pollution-free, fast, cheap, without any price difference, arbitrary tax and scissor difference, absolutely equivalent exchange.
There is no comparison at all, they will definitely lose.
The above are the opinions and doubts of Joshua's students.
-very nice.
Joshua did not immediately answer his students' words. He looked around and could see faces that were young and full of curiosity, resolute and had their own beliefs. They can already analyze events and summarize. They can already see through the possible situation more than ten years from now, and from now on, they can think and worry about the future.
-Perhaps this is how the sages of the past explained their knowledge and opinions to their followers and saints
Perhaps so. The current warrior's heart was filled with gentle joy, so he clapped his hands and said calmly: "Okay, your questions, the Pope and other legends, I have thought about and thought about them, and the answer is very simple, we must Do this.”
With that said, Joshua raised his head and looked at the ceiling. His gaze could easily penetrate the wall and look into the dark void: "In a few decades, the evil gods will come - so, let's wipe out the future of these civilizations. Maybe, it’s to make everyone’s future more likely.”
Lowering his head, the warrior's aura was slightly released. Suddenly, everyone including Hei, who was still eating, Hotaru, Rin, Xiaoguang, and No. 1 raised their heads. They felt the aura of their master in an instant. It exceeded the limit of any time in the past, and the warrior students felt the pressure that was ten times more than usual. Suddenly, they were all unable to stand and could only support each other.
Only the Syndicate immediately supported Lisa. At this moment, he showed the courage of a strong man in the past and withstood the momentum of the warrior. The great demon who was expected to become a legend in the past knew this momentum very well. Although he could not compare with it this time Last year, when he was used as a weapon by the strong man in front of him to kill him in the demon circle, it was enough to prove Joshua's 'seriousness'.
"The possibilities of the future - it sounds good. In fact, the reason why these civilizations were selected by us is because they have already begun to decay. Except for the large territory, there is no 'progress' at all."
Joshua, who became a little more serious at this time, said in a rather stern tone: "Perhaps for them, a future without our interference is a good choice and a good future, but in fact, we will give them The choices and futures they provide are definitely better than 99% of possibilities and futures. But to be honest, this is a bit hypocritical, so I’ll use another way of describing it.”
After a pause, the warrior narrowed his eyes and glanced at his students: "This is how the world works."
"The weak can only accept all this and change themselves for the world and adapt to this world. Unless they can surpass me, surpass us, become powerful, very powerful - in that case, they can force the world to be like other civilizations just like us. Change yourself and adapt the world and others to you.”
Joshua noticed that no one showed any signs of 'cowardice' or 'submission' due to the impact of his momentum just now. This made him very satisfied, so he withdrew part of his pressure and shook his head. Said: "Actually, you are wrong about one thing. Eagle and Seven Gods and I did not forcefully sell the idea of the exchange system."
"Strength is a way to change the world, so is courage, so is confidence, so is fear, determination, belief, temporary passion, and even coercion, charm, brainwashing and deception are all ways to change the world, but these are just 'Method', the most important thing is to do it and make the possibility of change greater than zero - the exchange system is just an introduction. You are right, it contains everything. It is very likely that their production system will collapse because of this. , but equally, they can learn all the knowledge of our Mycroft from it.
Listen, kids, we are generous enough to share all of our information with all civilizations, and we are not forcing it on anyone. They can completely use their 'determination' and 'faith' to gain knowledge, accelerate the development of civilization, and change the future of civilization, but naturally they can also use 'laziness' and 'lucky' to rely on the exchange system, destroy their own industrial system, and destroy themselves. Completely succumbing to a fate of degradation. "
And these are all 'changes'.
Surrendering to temptation, or defeating oneself, is the future and destiny. Mycroft civilization has given a choice - decades before the end, they are gathering comrades, not creating servants, just this experiment Refining, but not all civilizations can overcome it.
"do you understand?"
Having said this, Joshua paused. He noticed the thoughtful expressions of his students. He nodded with satisfaction, and then continued: "Good and bad, they are all changes. What I have given It’s just an introduction to accelerate their changes, without any force.”
"As for the more fundamental question... why are these civilizations so easily affected and changed by us? The answer is actually very simple."
The soldier said this, clasping his hands on his chest, he turned his head and looked out the window into the void, his voice was calm and low: "Every civilization has its own right, of course -"
Joshua said in a matter-of-fact and extremely arrogant tone.
"We are more correct."
