Ark's Journey to the Demon God

"The long night always needs some good news to drive away the fatigue. What good news have our soldiers brought us?"

Grand Duke Baikal unfolded the battle report, looked around slowly, and then spoke:

"Herag reported that the front line of Casimir has achieved gratifying results. The First and Second Ursus Army has pushed the front line to the Sunset Canyon Fortress. A large area of ​​northern Casimir territory has been basically occupied and is currently being consolidated.

Various small resistance forces in the areas occupied by the Qing Dynasty. "

"A good battle report, very Herage's style, seeking truth from facts, not boasting about his achievements, and similarly, not singing praises."

If it were any other officer, he would have added "Under the wise leadership of the Emperor——" at the beginning of the briefing, and then added "Long live His Majesty the Emperor!" at the end!

Baikal was noncommittal about this. He knew that the emperor admired Herage's behavior, and this was one of the reasons why he disliked Herage.

"But," the emperor narrowed his eyes. The aura of wisdom in his body decreased, but his majesty increased, and he said:

"I remember that in the original strategic layout, the front should have been pushed to Zvonek by this time."

Baikal did not dare to answer the question and could only answer submissively:

"Herage said that they encountered resistance from the Casimir Silver Spear Pegasus Knights on the front line, and the vanguard was blocked in front of the Sunset Canyon Fortress..."

"Silver Spear Pegasus..."

The emperor muttered the name and suddenly laughed:

"Green buds will be born from decay, and the filth of depravity will always be nurtured under the light... The poems of the Ursus people can always remind Ursus at critical moments. Lord Baikal, remember this poem, we will always Find strength in the words of those who have gone before you.”

Baikal nodded repeatedly, and the emperor continued:

"Mr. Baikal, what do you think Ursus should do in the current situation?"

Grand Duke Baikal thought for a moment and replied tentatively:

"Considering that the intensity of Casimir's resistance is too fierce, we should continue to send reinforcements to the front line, preferably, plus an army group!"

There are 90 Ursus troops on the front line of Casimir. It sounds like Ursus is using all the strength of the country to swallow up Casimir, but in fact the top brass of Ursus know that there are not that many troops on the front line.

On the front line of Casimir, there are Ursus' first and second armies with mixed arms, totaling more than [-] troops, and the remaining more than [-] are the technical personnel and logistics accompanying the army.

"Mr. Baikal, where do you think we are fighting?" The emperor did not reply to Grand Duke Baikal's suggestion, but instead asked an irrelevant question.

Baikal was a little confused. Is there any need to explain the reason for the war in Ursus?You can get land by fighting a war, and once you get the land, you can continuously extract wealth from the land, then use this wealth to arm the army, start a war, get the land again, and then repeat this cycle.

But he didn't answer because he knew that this was not the answer the emperor wanted.

"For the Ursus people, Lord Baikal, the war of Ursus is for the Ursus people."

The emperor stood up and walked to the French window:

"Hundreds of years ago, our ancestors suffered humiliation and suffering under the rule of the Hippogriff Empire. At that time, the Ursus people seemed to have no hope, but on that fateful day, we achieved everything through war. , the Ursus people on the vast tundra united together and overthrew the rule of the divine people, and Ursus stood on this land with dignity from then on."

"In the hundreds of years since then, the Ursus people have conquered a vast territory by conquering the south and the north. Our territory is wider than the Yan Kingdom, and our army is stronger than Victoria!"

"We have become the masters of the north, and Ursus finally no longer has to live under the feet of the gods."

"What brought all this, Lord Baikal? It was the war. Everything in Ursus was brought about by the war. Why are we so happy with it, because we are born for it."

"But times are changing, Lord Baikal. I have felt that achieving everything through war has become more difficult than before."

Yes, the war has become difficult. Who would have thought that the decayed and divided Casimir could defeat more with less and stop Ursus' steel torrent?

"So we can't gamble everything like we did in the past. Studting at the gambling table can show wealth, but studding on the battlefield will only make you look stupid."

Baikal knew that the emperor was beating him up, so he chose to remain silent.

"Casimir has begun to show its will. It seems that it has not yet been destroyed... Let Herague act according to the situation, minimize the losses as much as possible, and achieve certain results. I will do it for him. Prepare flowers and fine wine, waiting for his triumphant return.”

"I obey your order." Baikal bowed.

"As for you, Lord Baikal, don't worry, you won't be without a fight. Mobilize your subordinates, we are about to launch a war against Rutland."

"Understood!" Grand Duke Baikal was extremely excited. He was not interested in the emperor's "Usas and War Theory". War is such a good thing. As soon as he heard that there was a battle to be fought, he suddenly felt full of energy.

"In addition, Your Majesty, [Holy Fool] has brought new news."

"Holy Fool..." The emperor muttered this title, and a black figure seemed to appear in front of his eyes. He motioned for Baikal to continue.

"[Sheng Yu] said that he has sent [Snake Scale] to Casimir and contacted several shareholders of the Commercial Federation and several important officials of the Supervisory Committee. Can we-"

"Don't pay too much attention to this." The emperor made a judgment:

"For the knights of Casimir, the betrayal of a few officials and businessmen will not make them put down their weapons, and for Ursus, swallowing Casimir is not the purpose of this war."

Casimir's chivalry remained, while the rot of the Chamber of Commerce had not yet eroded

Entering the roots of a tree, now was not a good time to swallow Casimir.

"In addition, Lord Baikal, the position of Shengyu is still unclear. At this stage, we must keep a distance from him..."

"I understand." Grand Duke Baikal agreed. He was also not interested in the "holy fool" who liked to hide in the shadows and play with people's hearts. In his opinion, no conspiracy or trick was as useful as the main gun of a mobile land battleship.

Baikal bowed and exited the palace. He was going to mobilize his men. A new war was coming!

In the palace, Emperor Ursus closed the book of poetry in his hand. He looked out the window at the night scene. The splendor of the Holy Castle was intoxicating.

O Ursus, great and beautiful country.

Chapter 9 New Power

Under night, after a series of thrilling and thrilling days including experiencing natural disasters, being rescued, joining the war, charging into battle, breaking out of sieges, and settling in the fortress, Shen Muke welcomed his first night in the 8 Terra continent.

Yes, although he had been in a coma for a few days before, it was just a forward shake, wasn't it?

Leaning next to the stove, Shen Muke closed his eyes tightly and seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.

But in his mind, it was not as peaceful as it seemed.

"Merlin?! Are you there?"

"Yes, yes." Mr. [Template] has given up on correcting his mistakes. Since he can't resist, he might as well accept it with peace of mind.

"Why can't I sleep?"

Yes, Shen Muke found that after such a thrilling and tiring day, he couldn't sleep peacefully? !

You know, when he came home after a busy day, he always fell asleep!

"The power of the Demon God." Merlin explained: "The Demon God's soul keeps you awake at all times, and the Demon God's body keeps you never tired."

Ah this...

Although the idea of ​​never getting tired seems worth pondering. ⑥⑨④⑨③⑥①④⑤

()

But Shen Muke still hopes to sleep!

What's the best reward for yourself after a busy day?

Of course, it would be nice to have a good sleep. It would be better if she could have some dreams.It's a pity that I have lost this beauty.

"In addition, your inability to fall into deep sleep does not seem to be an isolated case..."

"what?"

"For unknown reasons, all the divine individuals on this earth seem to be unable to lose consciousness on their own initiative."

ha?

Divinity, this Shen Muke can understand, as a famous debuff, widely seen in various fantasy art works.

In the game, basically as long as you have this attribute, you will be slaughtered by the fourth natural disasters in various ways, and then they will step on your old face to achieve the "god-killing achievement".

But what Shen Muke didn't expect was that his template - [King Solomon's Families] had actually loaded this debuff onto him?

Considering that many of the 72 demon gods were descended from fallen angels, he was mentally prepared for the fact that he would eventually acquire divinity as he developed. However, he did not expect that this day would come so quickly, and as the The buff comes with an unacceptable side effect.

"Forget it, I won't sleep if I don't sleep. It's just a few less dreams."

Just do as the Romans do.

During the long night, unable to sleep, Shen Muke decided to distract himself with random thoughts, and then he thought of today's "results."

"Merlin? How many Origin Stones have I accumulated? Can I draw a card pool?"

Drawing cards is one of the elements of a time traveler, so you must try it!

"You have accumulated 733 Origin Stones. Do you want to do a single draw?" Mr. Template replied.

"Smoked!"

Shen Muke made a decisive decision. They were now stuck in the fortress, lacking resources, and support was far away. Shen Muke needed new power to break the situation.

In his mind, Mr. Template unfolded 72 exquisite cards——

"You have one chance to draw. If you draw [Ffa] again, your [Ffa] awakening level will increase to 65%. If you draw other demons, you will gain new power."

Shen Muke nodded, stretched out his hand and took out one.

Congratulations, you have won the 72th place among Solomon's 38 Pillars - [Hampa].

nice~

Luck is once again on Shen Muke's side, Hanpa is the power he needs most at this time!

"You are very lucky." Mr. Template praised.

Shen Muke breathed a sigh of relief. He was very lucky and had gained new strength. The future of the war was very tense. He needed a little good luck to break the current tense war situation.

Shen Muke opened his eyes and leaned back on the thick cushion. He looked at the moon and stars at Terra's night. The sky was clearer than reality, and the light was brighter than reality, but it was also less real than reality.

"Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road, the green grass reaches the sky..."

Using a language that no one could understand and humming a tune that was vaguely remembered in his mind, Shen Muke spent his first night in Terra.

……

"Your Excellency, you need our help?"

"That's right." Shen Muke held up a stack of design drawings that he had drawn for half a night, and said to the old blacksmith in front of him:

"Uncle Tyr, find the most experienced and skilled craftsmen in your group to build these. Whether we can stop the Ursus people depends on you!"

Old Tier took the drawing, looked through it, and shook his head:

"Old Tyr has never seen anything like this, but I will find someone who can create it for you..."

Before Old Tier finished speaking, a hand stretched out from the side and snatched the drawing.

This was a one-eyed old blacksmith. His body was covered in soot and iron filings, making him look dirty, but his one eye was extremely bright.

"I can do this." The other party turned over the drawings and said.

"Really?" Shen Muke said in surprise.

"It can be done, but it requires manpower to cooperate with me. The workload is too much."

No problem, manpower can be mobilized.

Shen Muke patted his chest and promised that as long as he could make it, it would be fine. If he didn't have enough manpower, he would ask the members of the Knights for help. This could all be discussed.

The one-eyed old blacksmith nodded, silently rolled up the drawings and walked towards his shed.

"What are you going to do?" Cyril came to Shen Muke, who had just noticed the conversation.
