I just covet their strength

Chapter 330 I. I am the Emperor God of War!

"They left just like that. I thought they were going to fight."

Mephis sighed upon seeing this and said, "If that's the case, I can still participate in the battle with the Shadow of the God. Tsk, tsk, that will definitely be very interesting."

"That's about right. But this guy should be stronger than the Lord of Withering. He's not easy to deal with."

Westhead looked at the departing figure of the Blazing Lord and shrugged.
"Because there is no need. Just as the demon said, the battle for the Land of Music is essentially a battle for the nodes of the Thousand Music Code. Whoever can control the nodes will have an absolute advantage."

Moreover, the situation is very unfavorable for the royal court, because the demons can choose not to attack the royal court, but the royal court cannot sit idly by and watch the many demons decide the outcome. The elves cannot afford to waste time, simply cannot afford to waste time.

They must recapture the city in the lake as soon as possible and correct the grand ensemble, otherwise the [Thousand Laws Code] will sooner or later be usurped by the shadows of the gods. After all, they are the shadows peeled off from the [Thousand Laws Emperor], and they are definitely more in line with the [Thousand Laws Code] than mortal followers.

"Your Excellency, Grand Tutor, if I fight alone, I can slowly conquer the neighboring demon kingdoms, but I can't guarantee the speed."

Westhead glanced at the solemn-looking Elevit and said:
“It would be great if someone could help.”

Hearing Lord Qinghui's hint, the corners of Ilevitt's mouth twitched slightly, and he replied:

".No, we still have time. This operation was very successful. We have recovered the territory occupied by the Lord of Withering in one battle. It is better than the best case scenario I expected. Next, we will proceed step by step and follow this strategy."

Tsk, are you so reluctant? They always say that when faced with two evils, choose the lesser one. In the eyes of this great tuner, could it be that the infiltration of the outside legion is more serious than the rampage of the Shadow of the God?
Or are you just hoping for luck?
The next conversation between Elevit and Westhead confirmed his thoughts.

"Lord Qinghui, what do you think? I think the demons are unlikely to join forces. They are unwilling to submit to each other. If nothing unexpected happens, you will only face one enemy most of the time."

Westhead responded calmly: "I have no objection. After all, I am only here to help as an ally. The Royal Court will decide how to arrange the plan."

He handed the decision-making power to the royal court to paralyze Ilevitt to the greatest extent, but in his heart, he was already thinking about how to force the other party to accept Leixia and others.

The Grand Tutor looked at the army behind him and said, "The entire royal court will go all out. Once we make up for the losses this time, we will launch an attack on the kingdom of the Lord of Blazing Flame."

Although the battle did not last long, only a few days, its intensity far exceeded the intensity since the establishment of the Royal Court. Several cities in the lake were attacked regardless of cost and casualties. Nearly half of the fleet was severely damaged, and more than one-third of the casualties made it difficult for ordinary troops to bear.

That is to say, warriors who are filled with fanatical beliefs can withstand battles of this intensity and do not take their own lives seriously.

Although the main force of the decisive battle was still on the legions under Westhead's command, this was also the reason why Ilevitt's attitude towards the former had obviously improved and softened.

For now, Lord Qinghui is such a crucial ally. Without him and his subordinates, it is hard to imagine what kind of heavy casualties the city in the lake where the Shadow of the God of Liberation sits would suffer. Even such a smooth attack would result in such casualties. If there were no reinforcements, Ilevitt really couldn't imagine it.

"For the Qianlu Royal Court, which has not been on the battlefield for a long time, they fought very well."

Westhead and the Commercial Army praised each other's legions in the Royal Court. It seemed that after this battle, their relationship became much more harmonious because they fought side by side.

This is not wrong. The Qinghui Guards do have a life-and-death relationship with the String Sound Swordsman, and the strength of the Yonglan Knight has also changed the minds of the Royal Court Elves.

But among the highest commanders, things are not so sincere.

The subsequent consolidation work does not require Westhead to be in charge for a long time. As long as the Tuner can maintain the maintenance of the [Thousand Laws Ceremony], even if the Shadow of the God attacks personally, it will be difficult to take it down in an instant, and they can definitely hold out until support comes.

Therefore, Ilevitt will temporarily focus on repairing and reinforcing the recovered territory, while Westhead will leave a group of troops to set up a punitive camp. The Grand Attorney will send all the royal citizens who he believes have loyalty risks to the punitive camp.

As for the management of the punishment camp, Elivitt said that it would be completely handed over to Westhead without any restrictions or supervision. All materials and logistics would be provided by the royal court. He only hoped that Westhead could make good use of this group of guilty people and devote himself to the liberation of the royal court.

It is difficult for Westhead to comment on this behavior. He can only say that more of it is better. The more he strengthens the combat power under his command, the louder his voice will be in the royal court.

As for Lord Qinghui himself, of course he had to take his troops back to the Central Royal Court for a full rest and wait for Ilevitt to inform him of the next expedition.

On the way back, the sound of evening prayer rang in his mind, bringing good news to Westhead.

[My love, the extraction of divinity has been completed. The finished product is here. Do you need it? ]

"Huh? So soon? You must have worked hard."

Westhead's consciousness immediately sank into the mental space, and he received the purified and refined divinity from the girl in red clothes and white hair.

【Thousands of Music Notes】

[The divine nature of the celestial god “Emperor Qianlu” is gathered together. This is the essence that He left behind in the mortal world.]

[The power of the demon comes from seduction and charm. Some demons have thought that if they have supreme affinity, they may be able to communicate with the world and calm down the chaos.]

[All disputes come from irreconcilable contradictions, so resonate with each other. As long as we can become one, the many will be the king, and the king will be the many.]

[So He plays the magnificent and vast harmonious sound, using a corner of the mortal world as an instrument and the reverence of all beings as strings to complete the eternal grand ensemble]

Westhead looked carefully at the divine aggregated form, a pure golden ball of light without any impurities. He listened carefully and heard a slight tremor. He sighed:

"The Lord of Withering's own attributes are not retained? But that's true. His so-called characteristics are nothing."

Lord Qinghui originally thought that he would obtain some kind of "Law of Withering", but after thinking about it, he realized that this was indeed not possible, and even more unnecessary.

After all, the Lord of Withering is just an ancient monster, a mere cannibalistic bone demon. He is not qualified to condense divinity at all. Are you worthy enough?

As the shadows of the gods, the divinity of the demons all comes from the ascension ceremony, and the gods are the source.

"If that's the case, then all demon spirits will become this thing after being extracted?"

[As long as it is the shadow of Emperor Qianlu, it is basically the same. It can be used directly as material.]

The experience and knowledge of the oldest demon in this regard is definitely worth relying on. Westhead nodded and carefully turned the divine aggregation in his hand. For any extraordinary person on the resonance path, this is a treasure they dream of. As long as they receive these divinities devoutly, even if they cannot complete the sublimation from the mundane to the sacred, it is enough to complete the transformation on the path. The legendary heaven can even peek into the temple of the demigod.

Unfortunately, Westhead is not on the path of resonance. He will not follow the path of any god, and he will not be able to achieve anything. Even if the path to becoming a demigod is within reach, he will sneer at it.

That’s right, demigods are indeed very powerful, enough to survive and dominate in this era of conflict where gods and mortals are separated.

But now that Westhead has learned of a way to ascend to heaven, how could he be satisfied with the status of demigod?

The pursuit of intensity is ingrained in this iron-blooded and intensity-conscious person's bones. He will pursue it to the utmost as long as it is possible for him to take a step further.

"Then I must study it carefully."

Westhead fumbled for the divine gathering, his eyes burning with anger as he said:
"I need to think about how to use this divinity for my own benefit."

[My dear, if you want to explore the divinity, I can actually extract it]

Upon seeing this, Evening Prayer spoke up and wanted to extract his own divinity and give it to Westhead.

However, Westhead immediately declined the offer of Evening Prayer:

"No, no, no, my only goal is the divinity of [Emperor Qianlu], because his path is similar to the one I want to take. As for the divinity of [Lord of the Blue Sky], it is incompatible with me."

There is a reason why Lord Qinghui did not take [Yonglan Rider God] as a reference but chose [Qianlu Emperor]. In the path of warriors, [Yonglan Rider God] has reached the ultimate extreme, and Westhead can never surpass him no matter what. This path is no longer viable.

However, the laws of [Emperor of Thousand Laws] are very complicated. The key lies in resonance and harmony, but the method of realization is charm - this is what Westhead wants. Since [Emperor of Thousand Laws], as a demon, voluntarily gave up the greatest talent of his birth, then don't blame Westhead for picking it up and finding another way.

What? Someone said at the beginning that charm is a useless attribute?
I don’t know, who said that?

It was just Westhead's confusion when he was young. He had been reaping the benefits of the charm attribute from the very beginning, and his attitude had changed from initial disdain to true love.

"[Emperor Qianlu] is too obsessed with soul fusion. It would be better for him to focus on charm instead of absorbing various powers and then unifying them. There is no need to compromise like this."

Lord Qinghui also made sharp comments on the lofty gods. For a mortal to say so is really quite disrespectful.

But he was not speaking nonsense. In "Poem of Destiny", the ultimate goal was to ascend to become a god, so Westhead knew better than any mortal how to meet the conditions, even better than any supreme being who had not yet ascended.

The so-called path to God is the path of me. You must carry your beliefs to the extreme, practice them from the bottom of your heart, and use your own will - no matter what it is, to apply it to the mortal world and make it an inevitable truth.

The way of the world is my way.

[Holy Tree of Glory] is "prosperity and reproduction"; [Eternal Mist Rider] is "fighting and protection"; [Emperor of Thousand Laws] is "fusion and tuning"; [Wings of the Abyss of Stars] is "rule and purification".
Only the [Lord of the Sky] was not clearly stated in "Poem of Destiny". Even if Westhead had personally experienced the ascension of Evening Prayer, he could not say for sure what it was.

If Westhead also wants to accomplish the ascension ceremony, he must now determine "My Way". Most of the gods in the past have determined their own paths after reaching the legendary level.

At the very least, you have to be a legend to have the confidence to control your own destiny and think about the future.

After Westhead told Evening Prayer about these things, the girl with white hair and red eyes was silent for a long time. Finally, she lowered her eyes slightly, stared at the former and asked:
[So, my love, what path have you chosen? ]

"Of course I have thought about it."

Westhead actually had the answer long ago. When he and Mavis were fighting outside the Heart of Mist, he had already spoken his true feelings.

Now he just emphasized to Evening Prayer again, holding the divine gathering tightly in his palm, ignoring the pain of being burned by the divinity, the man raised the corners of his mouth wantonly, hiding himself under his gentle and handsome appearance, and showing his wild and ferocious posture to the fullest:

"I want everyone to love me! Respect me! Adore me! Be obsessed with me! Swear allegiance to me! Live for me! And die for me!"

"So, for all those who don't want to die yet and don't want to live in a painful and war-torn world, all they have to do is..."

"Appreciate me, the Lord of Clear Light."

"I will serve you, the King of Knights, even if I die for you."

"My Empire Guardian"

"I am the Ascended One"

"I, I am the Emperor God of War!"

If it were Westhead's subordinates, whether it was Yulda, Mephis or others, they would definitely be shocked and excited by Westhead's speech. However, for Evening Prayer, such speech did not move her much. As a lover who deeply loved Westhead, she just cast a loving look from her true red eyes and opened her cherry lips:

[Although the road to ascension is not happy, only loneliness remains]

[But my love, as long as you are happy about this, I will always watch over you]

The triumphant fleet returned to the central royal court shortly afterwards to replenish supplies and equipment and make up for casualties.

There was no grand welcome ceremony. The royal court was now in a tense wartime state. The precious resources that the elven royal family had squandered were all mobilized by Ilevitt to the war. The banquet salons that were everywhere in the past were now quite rare, and all luxury goods were out of supply. Even rest was not available all day.

Under the spur of the Grand Tuner, all elven royal families had to contribute to the cause of liberation, so the pure-blooded elves who had lived for one or two hundred years had to engage in labor for the first time. Although it was not much, they only worked two or three hours a day to make some accessories for the [Temperament Notes], but for the pampered elven nobles, it was extremely hard work.

So when Lord Qinghui returned, the royal nobles were the happiest, not only because the war was going well, but more because of the anticipation of being freed from their boring lives.

As for the reason, please watch the scene.

PS: The map design of this black monkey is really amazing, and the rest is OK.
