Chapter 1310: Crazy Sound (I feel that ZZZ's story is relatively easy)

The war continues.

After confirming that Duanmu Huai had reached his destination, Ecott quickly changed her tactical style, once again returning to her original sinister, cowardly, and ruthless characteristics. Under Ecott's command, the Inquisition fleet used several abandoned warships to block the impact of the mechanical warships, and then burst into fire that was several times more intense than before, completely blocking the warships' advance.

The Inquisition does not need shields, because the artillery fire itself is the best shield.

At the same time, deep in the mechanical planet, another battle was unfolding.

The war of machines against machines.

On one side are steel and light beams, with scorching high-energy lasers crisscrossing in the dim space, trying to burn all enemies to ashes.

The other side is also made of steel. They move forward silently towards the roaring explosion, using their bodies and fists to destroy the enemies in front of them.

Duanmu Huai just stood behind, saying nothing, silently playing with the cards in his hand.

In the pitch black, a huge ancient construct appeared out of thin air in front of him, and then the [accelerator] floating beside Duanmu Huai suddenly split into a jet and installed it on the construct. Then the latter rushed to the battlefield in front like a cannonball, silently waving its iron fist and smashing everything it saw. Then several lasers flew in an interlaced manner, turning the ancient construct in front of him into ashes.

But that obviously doesn't matter.

A flash of light appeared in Duanmu Huai's hand again, and then a beam of light like a scanning laser swept across the battlefield. Then several cards returned to Duanmu Huai's hand, and then Duanmu Huai released them again.

[Ancient creation][Mysterious creation][Analytical creation]………

However, these pieces of scrap metal were just baits used by Duanmu Huai to delay the opponent. He was waiting for a card. This card had never been used since Duanmu Huai got it, but he had fought with the opponent before, so Duanmu Huai knew very well what role this card would play in the battle.

Another card appeared in Duanmu Huai's hand, but unlike the previous card, this card was flowing with colorful phantom light.

coming!

  [Destroy the ultimate. Lisheina]!

In an instant, flashing neon lights illuminated the originally dim hall, and then a lively girl with long pink hair who looked like a star appeared on the podium, holding a microphone.

At the same time, two mechanical eggs with wings, one black and one white, emerged from behind her. Then the mechanical eggs gradually broke into pieces and turned into black and white angel statues with wings, like two postmodern art works of sound, floating beside the girl.

"No one can take their eyes off me. Worship me! Believe in me! Pray to me! Listen to me! The first movement of destruction!"

Along with the girl's clear and cheerful singing, cracks began to appear on the ancient construct blocking the front, and then they exploded.

But this is fundamentally different from self-destruction.

The difference is that when these ancient constructs exploded, the sound waves of their explosion merged with the girl's singing, resonating with each other and turning into tsunami-like sound waves that swept across the entire battlefield!

  This is the ability of the destructive master Lisheina - [Song of Destruction]!

[Song of Destruction: Designate and destroy your own Servant or amulet without a countdown effect. Deal X damage to all the opponent's servants. X is the consumption value of the designated card.]

Duanmu Huai was badly troubled by Lishena's move in that future world. At that time, he relied on the unreasonable plot-killing card [Sealed Seraph] in his clone account (or original account) to kill Lishena. After that, this card entered his own card deck.

However, Duanmu Huai never used this card. The reason was very simple. This guy was a madman who wanted to destroy. Duanmu Huai also felt that he had nothing in common with other people in the Tribunal, and it was difficult for him to explain to An and others how he got the card back.

So just keep it and use it when you need large-scale control.

Like now.

The cost of each puppet card is not high, but it depends on the number. Although Duanmu Huai's armor can reduce the cost by half, Lisheina's ability calculates the damage according to the original cost of the card!

所谓20%+20%+20%+20%+20%=100%嘛。

In fact, Duanmu Huai would rather use the [Blasphemy Sphere]. After all, it is really fun to turn the enemy's corpse into a blood moon...

Unfortunately, these damn mechanical bastards don't have bodies at all, so they can't experience the charm of ascending into flesh and blood.

Standing on the high platform, looking at Lishena who was leading the destruction, Duanmu Huai felt very happy.

He likes her.

This was not a love between a man and a woman, although Lisheina was indeed very beautiful, lively, and cute, and worthy of the word idol, but Duanmu Huai's love for her was based on her behavior.

Acts of destruction and destructiveness.

Duanmu Huai understood why this happened. This was an instinctive reaction of the gods. When he was in Faerun, Duanmu Huai had talked to some gods. Although there were no examples of players becoming gods in the game, there were many gods that players had seen. Basically, there were two types of gods: racial gods and religious gods.

There is no need to say much about the racial god. The god of faith is relatively important. One of the characteristics of believing in God is mutual feedback.

If you believe in the god and his position and behave as he expects, the god will be satisfied and grant you power as a reward.

So from this perspective, the divine power bestowed by the God of Justice on his paladins is essentially no different from the divine power ascending to demon status by the God of Chaos.

But this is only one-way.

In turn, believers also have an impact on the gods.

And it's irreversible.

Believers will pray to the gods, and their faith will be transformed into strength and integrated into the gods. However, this faith is not pure, because it also contains the believers' impression of the gods.

This is a big problem.

Suppose everyone thinks that the god of justice is a stern old man, then even if he is not like this, he will gradually become what people think he is. In the end, no matter how they become gods, they will be shaped into what people want them to be.

The power of belief, the power of thought.

So terrifying.

Even the Chaos God cannot escape this theorem. Every evil god actually has two sides. If those who believe in them yearn for light, then they are the symbols of justice, beauty, wisdom and life.

But if those who believe in them fall into darkness, then they are evil, tyrannical, corrupt, and twisted.

This is something that almost all gods cannot escape. Duanmu Huai still remembers that Xirik's incarnation once complained to him about this.

"You know what? Inquisitor, I don't consider myself a good person, but later I became a god, the god of murder. I don't care about this, but you can't do anything in my name anytime, anywhere!"

At that time, the Prince of Lies was wandering around Duanmu Huai's room, as angry as a husky whose tail was stepped on.

"If you don't like your neighbor and you want to kill him, that's fine! If you don't like your boss and you want to kill him, that's fine too! If you don't like your king and you want to kill him, that's even better! But you can't swear in my name when you beat your wife! I don't have a wife! I've never beaten her!"

Duanmu Huai silently glanced at Xirik's Divine Disaster Sword without saying anything.

"In the name of Xirik, in the name of Xirik! There are so many things that need to be dealt with by me! Why can't these damn mortals do it themselves? When I wanted to kill someone, I killed them without hesitation, never in the name of anyone! And now, these bastards beat their wife and children in my name! It's as if I told them to beat my wife! What the hell!!"

By the way, the reason why Cyric appeared in front of Duanmu Huai was that he was explaining to Duanmu Huai that the reason why those idiot followers of the God of Murder were performing cult rituals on the territory of the Inquisition was that Cyric simply wanted to stop them from bothering him and let them find something to do. So these followers mistakenly thought that the God of Murder needed them to show their piety, so they killed a girl as a sacrifice on the territory of the Inquisition.

  So Xirik had to find Duanmu Huai and explain that this was all the idea of ​​his stupid followers. He only wanted them to get out, not to kill him! !

So he began to complain to Duanmu Huai.

To be honest, Xirik's complaints left a deep impression on Duanmu Huai, because he was one of the few mortals who became gods by killing the previous gods. Before becoming a god, Xirik's impression of gods was no different from other mortals, just like looking at stars, feeling that they were high above, extremely powerful, and dazzling, but had nothing to do with mortals.

However, when he truly became a god, Xirik was like a naive high school girl who finally became an idol, stepped into the entertainment industry and saw its true face, and expressed his disgust with disdain.

Things like pillow business, unspoken rules, making small movies, and rumored boyfriends, all those filth in the originally high-end circle made Xirik feel sick and unbearable.

For example, he once cursed the God of Justice in front of Duanmu Huai.

"That old man is simply a pervert. Otherwise, there are so many kind-hearted people who yearn for justice in this world, but the ones he favors the most are a group of pretty, unmarried lesbian girls?!"

Well, Duanmu Huai had to admit that Xirek's complaint was very on point.

After all, female knights and the like... well, those who understand will understand. In fact, Duanmu Huai can understand Xirik's anger, which is why the faith of the Inquisition is simpler and more direct - I don't want your faith, I only want your soul.

Duanmu Huai doesn't want his personality to gradually change into something he is not familiar with while he knows nothing about it.

Frankly speaking, this is a horror story. It's like a person gradually changing himself, but he doesn't feel anything at all.

Fortunately, Duanmu Huai's most powerful position is the God of Destruction. The priesthood of destruction is really powerful, and it will destroy everything. Even faith is no exception, faith, spirit, soul, tangible, intangible---this is why the furnace of the court of justice has been burning in Duanmu Huai's divine domain.

Don't give me your faith, just burn it.

Gifts are more important than sentiments.

But Duanmu Huai will still be affected to some extent.

Just like now.

When he saw these hateful machines, these enemies of humanity, twisted, deformed, and broken under the sound waves, he felt very satisfied, very happy, and very comfortable. The destruction and death of the enemies of humanity could not make Duanmu Huai feel a trace of pity in his heart. What he longed for was destruction, complete destruction, and total destruction.

But Duanmu Huai has always been very careful. He only indulges this kind of emotion on the enemies of mankind. This is why Duanmu Huai decided that the Inquisition would not intervene in disputes between humans. He is not an emperor, and he does not engage in expeditions and conquests. The duties of the Inquisition have clear boundaries, what can be done and what cannot be done, and there is no middle ground. Those who cross the line will be destroyed, and those who do not cross the line have nothing to do with me.

In comparison, the characteristics of the priesthood of the Old Ones are even more strange. It is not a two-way journey like believing in God. On the contrary, in Duanmu Huai's view, the Old Ones are more like a plague. It can only be contagious, and all its believers are actually patients infected with the plague of the Old Ones. Moreover, this disease is incurable, and eventually the believers will only die completely in the pain of fanaticism.

  As for the power gained by those believers?

Well, if you think that transforming into a tentacle monster, or a giant eyeball, or some other messy and disgusting flesh monster is a blessing, then it's not wrong.

Like cancer, it can kill you, but it can also make you lose weight.

If you think losing weight is more important, then this is a good thing.

As for the God of Joy and the Demon King of the Sixth Heaven...at present, these two are still at the bottom. Duanmu Huai has not yet felt their powerful power, or he is still groping for these two priesthoods and has not yet entered the door.

Duanmu Huai also hoped that he could speed up his pace. The Old Ones were about to reach the maximum level, and this priesthood would not have much impact on him. However, the God of Pleasure and the Sixth Heavenly Demon King were the top priorities, and he had to find a way to increase the power of these two priesthoods until the plan was completed.

The war continues.

The gunfire and explosions behind her did not affect Lumiel. She closed her eyes tightly, feeling her perception extending along the nanocircuit, deep into the logic circuit of the unexpected enemy. But soon, Lumiel felt something strange.

Something is not right.

The cold logic circuit was still composed of electric current, and Lumiel could even smell the familiar circuit smell coming from it. The unexpected enemy's firewall could not stop Lumiel's invasion, although it was desperately strengthening round after round of defense, but it was useless.

However, Lumielle was not concerned about these things. She was still slowly dismantling the firewall of the unexpected enemy, and at the same time she began to focus on another thing.

That weird feeling.

Lumière was sure that she had felt a similar aura somewhere before. She was very sure that it was not an illusion. Unlike Aclair, Lumière's brain carried the memory of every day from her birth to the present hundreds of years. What she had to do now was to find the memories of that time and then turn them over.

As they got closer and closer to the core, Lumière slowed down, pretending that the opponent's resistance was too strong and she couldn't move forward. She felt really bad now, and that feeling meant that Lumière must have experienced something similar somewhere before, so before she could recall it, her body issued a warning.

So, what is it?

  Lumiel quickly flipped through her memories. It shouldn't have been before she joined the Inquisition, so it should have been after she joined the Inquisition? But after joining the Inquisition, she didn't actually participate in many battles with Duanmu Huai. The number of times Lumiel and Duanmu Huai fought together was very few. After all, she was responsible for intelligence work in the rear most of the time... Oh, right!

Lumière remembered!

  That was in Cowes———!

Lumière closed her memory in an instant, and then she almost instinctively began to mobilize the data, while forcing herself to devote a little of her mind.

"Mr. Inquisitor?"

Lumiel's voice was barely audible amid the explosion and singing, but Duanmu Huai heard it. He turned his head and looked at the pale, sweaty little girl in front of him, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"what happened?"

  Just a hatred of intelligence, is that not enough?

"I discovered..."

Lumielle took a breath and continued.

"I found the same thing as Kos..."

"it's here?"

Although Liumi'er did not explicitly point out that word, Duanmu Huai quickly understood what she wanted to say.

  Electronic demon?!

Is there an electronic demon here?

Damn, no wonder this abomination of intelligence is going crazy like an idiot.

"Do you have any way to deal with it?"

"It's hidden inside. I think it's planning to..."

"Stop talking, do what you can, and I'll finish the rest."

Duanmu Huai decisively shifted his attention. He turned his head and stared at the large pillar in front of him, holding the war hammer tightly in his hand.

"Yes."

Lumiaire didn't have the time to talk too much now. She needed to focus most of her attention on the internal situation. The little she had just devoted to reporting to Duanmu Huai was already her limit. Fortunately, as a reliable superior, Duanmu Huai reacted quickly, which made Lumiaire breathe a sigh of relief. She concentrated again and threw herself into the search at hand.

Lumiel could almost guess that the other party was hiding in the core code of the unexpected enemy. According to his previous experience on Cos, Lumiel believed that the other party was very likely planning to take action after he had completely controlled the unexpected enemy, but... this was just a possibility.

So Lumière made a decisive decision.

The data attack reached its limit in an instant. The moment the unexpected enemy's firewall was breached, Lumiaire directly launched the logical data packet that he had just created.

The latter hit the core of the unexpected enemy, then instantly controlled everything, and then issued an order to the entire unexpected enemy network at a speed of 0.1 microseconds.

self-destruct.

Including the unexpected enemy himself.

In fact, it was the unexpected enemy himself who revealed this idea to Lumière.

When the idiot foolishly and proudly explained to An and others how he had bypassed the diagnostic procedure and cut it off, Lumielle immediately discovered the weakness of the unexpected enemy.

That is, it simply bypasses and cuts off the diagnostic program, but the program itself still exists and it cannot rebel against its own underlying code.

Then the next step is very simple.

All Lumiaire had to do was reactivate the diagnostic program that had been bypassed by the unexpected enemy, and then directly add the highest instruction set to the loophole, and it would be destroyed on its own.

It's like pressing the self-destruct button on a battleship, except that as soon as you press the button, something may suddenly jump out from behind the button and wrap around the hand pressing the button.

So how do we avoid this?

It’s very simple, don’t press it with your hands, just pick up a ball and hit it!

That's what Lumière did.

As it turns out, she succeeded.

[Irreversible errors have occurred in the diagnostic program logic, the defense system has been activated, and the countdown to the explosion has begun]

A cold inorganic sound rang out, and at the same time, Duanmu Huai saw the scarlet ball of light on the top of the pillar in front of him suddenly turn into a deep blue color, and then a huge shadow suddenly jumped out of it, it opened its slender claws, and grabbed towards Lumiel!
