Ten thousand I am across the heavens

Lan Nuo: Yes, the transformation of Dad No. 2 is generally very reliable. With the help of the tailor-made cockpit, the little devil loli controls this tall puppet as if she is controlling her own body.

At first, she was a little clumsy. But it was like learning to ride a bicycle. The operation logic was completely instinctive. It only took a moment for the little girl to get familiar with the operation of this thing. She even imitated her father in a very realistic way.

After all, they were father and daughter who had lived together for more than 600 years. No one knew Y'zaks better than Elizabeth. Combined with the built-in voice changer, it was as if the great devil had been resurrected.

Yzaks's face represented appeal in this space bubble area. You have to know that those races that were once hostile to him still feel instinctive fear when they hear his name.

The Mad King's reputation here is basically equivalent to Voldemort's reputation in the Harry Potter world. That pure and innocent way of stopping children from crying at night, even now many people dare not mention Yzaks' name directly.

On the other hand, in the area ruled by Yzaks, this name means the existence of a backbone. As long as their mad demon king has not fallen, the demon king's people dare to go crazy with the demon king and fight against the whole world together with the demon king.

In fact, they almost did it. The Vatican coalition forces were pushed all the way to the hub city of the human world, the city of Cardesa in the Cardesus plane, and a million demon troops were at the gates of the city.

This battle can be called the Stalingrad defense battle in the 10-year war. In the struggle between the Demon King's army and the Holy See coalition, the control of this city, which is like a world hub, changed hands repeatedly and the whole city was reduced to ruins. In the end, the Holy See coalition relied on the endless heroes of various races and paid a huge loss of life to barely win the battle.

Later, when counterattacking the Demon King's City, if it weren't for the other demon lords who surrendered to the Demon King and turned against him at the most critical moment of justice, they would have sneakily attacked the last reinforcements of the Demon King's army, allowing the Church's coalition to launch a reckless forbidden spell successfully, tearing the Demon King's City and the Demon King's army apart with a planet-scale space storm, and almost destroying themselves and the seventh demon plane together. Who would have won this epic battle is still unknown.

Elizabeth drove Papa No. 2 this time. She officially appeared in the Demon King's Castle and walked out of the throne room, which immediately boosted the morale of the First Legion soldiers who were originally worried that the Demon King was too seriously injured and had lost their fighting spirit. As long as their Demon King was still there and as long as the flag had not fallen, they would have the courage to challenge the Church coalition again and take back everything they had lost.

Elizabeth felt a little proud when she saw the cheering First Army. After all, this was once the strongest army in the world. It had the most advanced weapons, the best-trained soldiers, and top-notch personnel in all aspects.

Although not all soldiers were made up of demons, they were all elites of various races. Each type of soldier was an epic unit, an elite monster whose health bar looked twice as gorgeous as others.

Lan Nuo looked at the little devil who was a little bit dizzy after taking a walk, and he could only shake his head and pour a basin of cold water on her.

"Do you think that after the strongest First Legion has restored its morale, it will have the confidence to fight against all kinds of enemies again?"

The little devil was not completely arrogant. Although he shook his head, the pride in his tone was hard to conceal: "It is definitely not enough to rely on the First Legion alone. After all, they only have 5,000 people in total. Even if the scale of the Holy See coalition is not as large as before, it is at least hundreds of thousands of people now. If a real fight breaks out, we still have to recruit other races to rebuild the army.

But if it is a single-legion confrontation, no legion can hold out for more than ten minutes under the firepower coverage of the First Legion. "

Lan Nuo nodded: "I heard from your father that the strength of these First Legion is indeed very strong. If calculated according to the military strength of the conventional army in this world, it is indeed no problem for them to defeat any army in this world.

But you have to know that war is not just about frontal combat. Logistics and material supplies are also very important. The army is not just a machine. It cannot operate endlessly. There will be times when it gets tired and needs to rest.

Especially your legion. The technological level is at least one era higher than that of the Holy See coalition. You must know how huge the industrial system is needed to produce the equipment of the First Legion.

With this scale, if the First Legion is to maintain its combat effectiveness, it must have at least an industrial center with a population of one million responsible for the production of various industrial products.

Although the Demon King's Castle is full of elite troops, maintaining the First Legion's military strength is already the limit. Are you only relying on this one legion to conquer the world? Or do you not need to equip the other recruited troops with advanced weapons, and just let them be cannon fodder? If so, why would the recruited troops fight for us?

Even the First Order needs a reason to fight for us, doesn't it?"

After all, Elizabeth was too well protected by her father. Although she was quite smart and had outstanding performance in both scientific research and strategy, she still lacked understanding of human nature.

What is about to be waged is a protracted war against the entire world, so why we are fighting is more important than equipping soldiers or even logistics.

Ideas may seem unimportant, but they are indispensable at critical moments of social change.

When thinking about the question of why to fight, Elizabeth immediately thought of the original intention of her father to start this war.

“If I have to say why we are fighting, of course it is to step into the starry sky. We must integrate the power of all races to explore the entire space bubble area and find a way to leave the space bubble area. Only by leaving here can we truly step into the starry sky.” When she said this, Elizabeth’s eyes were full of longing. She sat on Dad No. 2’s shoulder, tilted her head and imagined what the starry sky outside should look like.

"That's right, this is the ideal of you and your father, and it's also the ideal of many scholars and alchemists, but why haven't many people taken action for this ideal over the years? Why did the alchemist who met your father, who had such profound knowledge, become so miserable?" Elizabeth opened her mouth, but finally fell silent. Everyone can say that our journey is to the stars and the sea. But there are very few people who are really willing to take action for this sentence. The development of society and the progress of civilization. For a considerable period of time, it is contrary to personal interests.

If a country or organization wants to carry out large-scale construction or scientific research activities with high consumption, it must find ways to mobilize the people in the country and give them motivation to work. The motivation for work is usually to hold on to a considerable part of what they desire, rather than simply relying on ideals to motivate people to do voluntary work.

In fact, even in this Demon King's City, only a small number of people came for the purpose of entering the starry sky. Most of those who joined had their own demands. For example, some belligerent demons themselves longed for war, and the Mad Demon King's army wanted to fight against the whole world, so there was no more suitable battlefield than this.

Some of them could not survive in their own race and had to come to this special country that accepts all races.

There are also some who are eager for knowledge and hope to obtain the powerful secrets of the Demon King. In fact, there are very few people who truly join the Demon King's camp in order to step into the sea of ​​stars.

If we call for this, not many people can be mobilized. This is actually one of the reasons why Yzaks lost to the Holy See coalition in the end.

Although he had conquered the entire seventh demon plane and even a large amount of territory in the human world due to his successive victories, he was too ambitious and his goal was too far-reaching, even beyond this era. A considerable part of the territory he subsequently occupied did not transform into the combat power of the Demon King's army. Instead, because of the evil stereotype left by demons in the traditional impressions of various races, local resistance forces emerged one after another. It was also necessary to waste troops to suppress the local resistance forces.

Elizabeth had also experienced all of this, so it was impossible for her to recall her past experiences without having some insights.

“The question of why we are fighting must be clarified before we return. If possible, you can find an opportunity to send me to the Seventh Demon Plane for investigation. Often, field investigations are far more reliable than hearsay. I still believe that there are people who are willing to fight for the ideals of the Mad Demon King.

You were able to drive the coalition forces of all races into a dead end and almost unified the world. This in itself proves that your father's base is very stable. This part of people supports the Crazy Demon King from the bottom of their hearts. Otherwise, they would have collapsed halfway as soon as they left the house. "

Elizabeth's face looked a little better, and she took Lan Nuo out of the throne room and showed the new anthropologist around.

The two of them came to the underground area of ​​the Demon King's Castle. When they got here, Elizabeth's pride returned.

Dwarf craftsmen and Eldar technicians are busy in the underground energy zone of the Demon King's City. Steel bridges are built between huge boilers. Thick steel pipes transmit high-pressure steam, pushing pistons to drive gears to rotate slowly, providing power for the entire Demon King's City.

The magic core gathers the high temperature in the reactor, and gathers tremendous high-frequency energy on the crystallized lines, transporting stable magic energy to the entire castle, maintaining the operation of various spells.

Every technician here can be regarded as a senior engineer. They adjust the parameters on the various instruments around them, inspect and repair this huge machine, and make a series of adjustments in response to the ever-changing natural environment.

Lan Nuo could only understand part of the technology, that is, the mechanical technology. This part of the technology was usually basically universal in many universes. He could understand every detail of the operation of the steam boiler, but the magic engine was the characteristic technology of this world.

"The reactor under our feet was originally powered by the magma underground. There were originally pipes underground in the Demon King's Castle that were inserted into the magma layer to extract magma to heat the boiler, thus providing the castle with an endless supply of energy. However, after being swept by the forbidden space storm, the castle was drawn into this special world we are in now and was disconnected from the magma lake. Now we use energy provided by a special energy core. After being drawn into this space, we were lucky enough to find a powerful energy core. Although we don't understand its principle, the energy provided by the energy core is even greater than the previous magma.

So now the Demon King's Castle can be like a floating castle, suspended in the air. This suspension function was originally designed, but there was not enough energy supply before, which caused the anti-gravity formation to never start. But now there is no such problem. The Demon King's Castle is now a powerful mobile floating fortress. To be honest, as long as it flies out, the Vatican coalition has no way to directly stop the castle's advance. Before the castle's energy reserves are exhausted, we are invincible.

So if the technology is strong enough, even if there is only the First Legion, there is still a chance of winning. " Elizabeth is proud of the Demon King's Castle that she has personally upgraded. This is the result of the hard work of her, countless dwarf craftsmen, and Eldar technicians.

Lan Nuo nodded: "A floating fortress is indeed very powerful, but tactics are something that needs to be matched. No single weapon can face any battlefield environment. If a fortress appears alone on the battlefield, its powerful strategic role will be wasted. If a war really breaks out in the future, I will teach you about this. As for the technology, I have some ideas.

Since the anti-gravity formation can be maintained, the form of the Demon King's Castle itself needs to be transformed to a certain extent.

The castle is obviously not suitable for flying. In the atmospheric environment, the streamlined shape and the platform that is convenient for carrier-based aircraft to take off and land can greatly increase the combat capability of your Demon King Castle. Stronger maneuverability can make up for the lack of shield to a considerable extent.

As for the energy system, the reciprocating steam boiler you are using now is, to be honest, still a little too inefficient. I see that your processing precision is quite high. If possible, I will see if I can directly install a turbine for you.

Besides that, if there's a chance, I can ask someone to explain to me the principles of your alchemy engine and magic. I'll compare it with the knowledge I have and see how I can help you in these areas. I feel a little too busy. Do you have any technology like cloning or doppelganger?"
