Old days in the box

Chapter 434 It’s late, but I can read the file

The divine connection surged into his mind once again, and strange lights flashed from countless screens, as if millions of living hearts were beating at the same time.

Zhou Xiao's gaze finally returned.

In front of him, a bird's-eye view of a strange planet was instantly projected on the huge main screen, rapidly approaching the surface from outer space.

As the camera zooms in, countless golden gears appear on the screen, rapidly reconstructing the entire screen interface.

All the features he once unlocked are now returning in more powerful versions.

The god's warning table that was like a navigation clock turned into a more precise star map; the golden container of authority turned into a divinity meter accurate to decimal points; the flag used for demon promotion turned into a pillar of ascension.

All functions are undergoing unprecedented upgrades, constantly expanding the permissions held by this interface.

Zhou Xiao looked left and right along his hand, and at the same time, more golden gears climbed onto his other four sub-screens, bringing them more and newer unknown functions.

On the left hand side, he saw a vertical secondary screen that folded up and down. It was connected to all the Internet entrances in the world and could be used to call up the model at any time. On the right hand side was a horizontal screen operating console, with countless golden threads converging on it, interweaving three shortcut buttons: "Fast Forward", "Pause" and "Rewind".

A larger and more specific star map was projected onto a giant combined screen composed of fifty screens, which depicted the star conditions of the nine realms in the shape of a world tree, as if it were a top-level strategic map that provided a panoramic view.

This is what the box looks like when its full authority is turned on. It is truly omniscient, all-seeing, and omnipresent. From this seat, Zhou Xiao can see everything.

Countless prayers from the old voters began to be heard from the loudspeakers, along with the roar of war.

Zhou Xiao turned his gaze back to his main screen. At this time, the camera had passed through the clouds and entered the surface of the planet, and he was finally able to see clearly where this place was.

What the camera shows before our eyes is undoubtedly a huge and tragic battlefield.

Looking along the surface of the planet, he saw countless people crawling on the ground and fighting. Both sides had an endless battle line with hundreds of billions of people, and corpses were everywhere.

The Chosen One highlighted in golden light was right in the center of the screen. He saw Freya fighting on the battlefield with two swords in hand, leading the remaining descendants of the old days to fight hard against the Kryptonian warriors.

But the enemies seemed endless, and the sky was full of broken space cracks, almost to the point of collapsing reality; but no one cared about the consequences so far, because at this moment countless God's Realm warships were emerging from every crack, and those Kryptonian warriors were pouring out of these warships in large numbers, so dense that they almost covered the entire sky.

This was the last battlefield of the old days, and they were doomed to fail.

Zhou Xiao gently moved the mouse and scanned the camera across the surface of the planet. This was an extremely large giant star. The vast battlefield was filled with trillions of living people and corpses, but even so, it was still impossible to fill up the battle lines.

He had never seen his people increase to this number. Most of them were temporarily generated in a half-mechanical and half-flesh form, and theoretically had a lifespan of less than 24 hours.

But their average survival time on the battlefield is less than 24 minutes. The birth of each batch of followers is only to delay the enemy for a quarter of an hour, so as to gain another quarter of an hour in the real core battlefield.

Godzilla's body fell on a remote mountain range, and behind it, hundreds of similar individuals had also fallen, forming a magnificent and spectacular battle line.

Those replicas that seemed to be recreated with the power of the "breeding" authority hinted at the help that the Kingdom of Elves had once extended. Unfortunately, everything has turned to ashes now. The light of the "breeding" authority has long shone on the mothership of the God's Domain. Those endless Kryptonian warriors emerged precisely because of the power of this authority. It turned out that although he came back, he came back too late.

Ever since he left the box and returned to reality, the flow of time between him and the box has been accelerating due to the loss of its user. By the moment he returned, the flow of time had already expanded to the point where one day could take several decades.

During the period when he was hesitant, his old family had already missed the best opportunity to turn the tables. They were caught off guard by the army of God's Realm that came from the Kingdom of Giants, and thus launched a hundreds of years of pursuit war among the stars, until they were annihilated one by one by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse in different worlds.

And what Zhou Xiao saw now was the last hiding place of the old clans, that is, the kingdom of elves protected by the goddess of fertility.

And the real war had ended long before he arrived.

The Goddess of Fertility died in battle, her corpse thrown into the interstellar space and turned into an ice sculpture; the authority of "breeding" that she held was also taken away from her and loaded onto the mothership in the divine realm to shine brilliantly.

What he saw now was nothing more than the last meaningless resistance of his old family members, a failure that was already inevitable.

The Old Ones, the quantum magic network, all these things that pose a threat to Sam have long been seen through by the authority of the "Oracle" in the future, and have been blocked at every critical time point.

Although there were many foreshadowings laid in the past, without Zhou Xiao's leadership, they were simply not strong enough to fight against the omniscient Sam, and could only watch one failure after another until they had no way to retreat.

Zhou Xiao silently watched those people who were still resisting stubbornly. Most of them had mixed blood from various different clans and all looked strange.

In this era, there are no purebred Old Ones in the universe anymore. In order to improve their strength, they risked hybridizing the bloodlines of various families to create fusion warriors with shorter lifespans and greater strength.

These fusion warriors are the most elite troops under the Old Ones and the most valiant martyrs of the old days.

In their short lives, they will experience two deaths and three battles. The first time their physical body dies, their souls will be captured back into the necromancer armor for a second rebirth, fighting again as undead. After their souls die in battle, they will be uploaded to the quantum magic network, using digital consciousness to drive their mechanical bodies to fight three times until they are truly killed in battle.

——For the sake of the old days, they were willing to give up their identity as human beings, devote all their values ​​to fighting, until their bodies, souls, and consciousness were all sacrificed, leaving no trace in this world.

Never in the history of the Nine Realms had there been an army so loyal, so fierce, and yet even so, they had failed.

After a thousand years of struggle, they lost MOSS, Godzilla, and two God-chosen champions. They have been struggling to hold on until now, but finally they have met their fateful end.

Freya placed her swords on the ground and looked up at the gray sky filled with Kryptonian warriors.

There, the mothership carrying the power of "breeding" was shining brightly, as if the kingdom of God was emerging from the sky, and in that light, the great Lord of All Gods, Sam, appeared and ruled the world.

“It seems that this is the end.” He smiled and gently clenched the Infinity Gauntlet in his hand, causing the gem of authority on it to shine brightly.

But at this moment, Zhou Xiao's hand suddenly swiped across the secondary screen on his right and pressed the "Pause" button that appeared on it.
