Fights between super strong men often take a long time to determine the winner, and this is in the case of a fight to the death where the two sides never retreat. If one party is determined to retreat, then the battle will take even longer.
According to what Alexis once said, the battle between her and little Lucas lasted for several months, but he finally escaped.
At this time, with the death of Lake, Lucas and Lucas had already noticed something was wrong, and the two of them naturally wanted to retreat. Because they have realized that Lake's death was not as simple as being expelled from this world, but a true death in which even his phylactery was completely destroyed.
So, little Lucas was naturally very surprised.
Emrakul had already received Sean¡¯s order, so he did not stop little Lucas from leaving. Instead, he turned around to join his other two brothers.
Kozilek¡¯s opponent is the Death Knight Ann. The strength of the two is almost the same. It¡¯s hard to tell who suppresses the other, but it is enough if it only plays a delaying role.
Ulamog's opponent is the huge tentacle summoned by Lake. Originally, if the twelve Touches of Cruise were fused, it could almost be equivalent to the strength of a super strong man, but unfortunately, it was defeated by Sean before. One was destroyed, and then several more were destroyed, so with only nine of Cruise's Touch left, it was impossible to have the strength of a super strong person. It would be very easy for Ulamog to solve it.
So when Ulamog finished solving the Touch of Cruise and reunited with Kozilek, Ann Lucas, the Death Knight, one of the Thirteen Kings of the Undead, naturally fell into a hard battle. And by the time Emrakul arrived, once the special attributes of the "Three Eldrazi Brothers" were activated, it was already too late for Ann to leave. How could he not know Sean's strategic plan at this time? .
When he thought that one of his two brothers would be able to return alive in the end, Ann just raised a smile on his lips, and then he fell into a final battle with the three Eldrazi brothers.
This battle resulted in a death zone with a radius of more than three hundred miles appearing in the southeast of the Millennium Covenant Empire.
But one of the thirteen kings of the Bone Plane, the Death Knight, Ann Lucas, was also buried here, along with an army of more than a million undead.
The plane of bones, under the guidance of Lake, launched a several-year invasion into the plane of miracles. However, this invasion ended in failure under the leadership of two Lich Kings and an Undead King, and also lost a Lich King and an Undead King. For the entire Plane of Bones, Although it was a shame, the anger was far less than what Xu Qing said to Sean.
It can even be said that this is good news for countless people.
Lich King, this title can be claimed by many people. For example, the most powerful lich in a certain plane, who has the influence to command other lichs, can be called the Lich King. But even if such a Lich King goes to the plane of bones, it is very likely that he will be just an ordinary lich, and he will not be able to bring this name to other places.
Recognized as the true Lich King, only the seven great witches in the plane of bones have won the title of "Lich King".
Although, the earliest history of the Corpse Plane is not the seven Lich Kings, but the seven powerful Lich Kings who were gradually born over a long period of historical development. This is different from the ten who had the title early on. The three undead kings are different. Although if the strength is strong enough to be recognized by all the Lich Kings, one can become the new Lich King of the Corpse Plane. However, as the strength of the seven Lich Kings continues to accumulate, the unspoken rules of the Corpse Plane have long since evolved. Similar to the Undead King, it can only be replaced.
Therefore, the death of Lake and the free title of "Lich King" will inevitably cause huge chaos in the entire plane of bones. Countless lichs will inevitably fall into crazy wars in order to seize this title. Under such circumstances, the death of Death Knight Ann, one of the Thirteen Kings of the Undead, will undoubtedly completely aggravate the chaos that affects the entire plane of bones.
According to Sean's speculation, the war in the Bone Plane will probably not subside within a thousand years.
In this way, the Miracle Plane will not need to worry about any invasion from the Corpse Plane for at least the next thousand years. The only people who need to be wary of are probably the demagogic devils in the hell plane. The abyss plane has completely disappeared since the last arrogant invasion failed. As for whether they closed the plane channel by themselves or were forced by Enkos If the plane passage is destroyed, then it is unknown.But these are no longer things that Sean needs to consider.
The pain in my heart that I have been struggling with for many years can finally be let go.
The death wave caused by the invasion of corpses has finally come to an end at this time.
Soon, news spread throughout the Miracle Continent that the Millennium Covenant Empire, the Void Empire and the major church knights jointly fought to suppress the death tide unrest in one fell swoop. And it is said that this time the death wave has been quelled. It is not just a simple quelling in the past, but it has truly completely eliminated the death wave that would erupt every few decades or hundreds of years in the Southern Continent. From then on, the Southern Continent will never be seen again. There won't be any more death waves.
Although many people don¡¯t know exactly how this was done, this does not prevent them from sending some words of congratulations.
Anyway, as long as it involves the mad dog of the Void Empire, all they have to do is praise it.
Especially after the return of Sean Connery, the emperor of the Void Empire, the entire Void Empire was completely united. This huge empire quickly revealed its terrifying strength that was nothing like a newly rising empire. The entire empire entered an unprecedented rapid development in an instant. The economic problems that could originally restrict the development of the Void Empire, but also with the disclosure of the Abyss Path and the complete integration of the major chambers of commerce in the trade capital, quickly made The economy of the Void Empire has been fully developed.
If we say, Sean brought an era that only belongs to the strong to the entire Miracle Continent.
So when Sean returned from the underground world, he brought a brand new trade method to the entire Miracle Continent: completely abandoning the fair trade model in which the trading capital controlled market prices and one party was dominant. The market prices in various places will fluctuate with the long-term trade routes and changes in demand. It will no longer be the kind of price market that is firmly controlled by the major chambers of commerce in the trade capital, where they freely set prices and have the final say.
This is true free trade.
Of course, the only ones that can currently accept the races from the underground world entering the surface world and coexisting peacefully with humans are the Void Empire, which has always been a mixed and mixed race. Other countries are still very repulsive to the residents of the underground world. This repulsion is even far greater than the repulsion of orcs and residents of other hostile countries.
But Sean knows that this problem cannot be solved in a short time. Even if we really want the entire Miracle Continent to accept the coexistence of the underground world, it will take at least decades, or even hundreds of years.
This kind of problem cannot be rushed.
But there is no need to rush this issue, but there are other issues that make Sean very anxious.
Because Miss Cecilia is losing her temper.
"You are alone again, and you went to fight when I wasn't paying attention!" Cecilia was very angry, and she threw a pillow at Sean's face.
Perhaps because of the excessive anger, the pillow turned into a fireball when it came out of Cecilia's right hand.
Facing the magic thrown by Cecilia, Sean did not dare to use his face to catch it, so he had to dodge sideways.
This is the eighth day after Sean solved Lake and Ann. He had just returned to the Void Palace and had to face the wrath of Cecilia who had just woken up.
"I" Sean opened his mouth, but before the words came out, another fireball pillow flew towards him.
"What are you doing! You are like this every time!" Cecilia's voice was vaguely crying, "You always bear all the problems and troubles by yourself, and you don't leave any time for yourself. The way outYes, you now have super powerful helpers like Emrakul, Kozilek, Ulamog, and Alexis, but have you ever thought about what would happen if something unexpected happened?"
"What a surprise."
"You've been missing for three years!" Cecilia roared.
Sean couldn¡¯t help but tremble and didn¡¯t dare to speak out to make any rebuttal, but he still muttered in a low voice: ¡°That was an accident.¡±
"An accident!" Cecilia's voice rose a few points. "Have you never thought about letting others help? Why do you have to solve it yourself? You said you are not a lord. Well, there is William, with the help of Neil and others, you can leave political and military affairs to them and become your idle emperor. No one will object. But you have to know that whether it is William, Neil, or Alexis, , Rena, Alfred, everyone is united around you. If you are no longer here, what will happen to all this! You can be an idle emperor, and don't even care about anything. , but nothing can happen to you!"
"It's you, right?" Sean said.
?"But if I don't have you, what's the point of being alone!" Cecilia was depressed and anxious. When she was angry, she wanted to throw away the pillow again, but there were only two pillows on the bed. After throwing them all away, I couldn't find the pillow for a while, so I was so angry that I started to get other things.
Sean's eyes were sharp. When he saw Cecilia turning her head and actually thinking about other objects, he had to rush forward and hugged Cecilia: "Okay, okay, I promise you, I will pay more attention to it in the future." Yes. I won¡¯t¡put myself in danger again.¡±
Cecilia was hugged by Sean and all her anger was gone.
In the more than ten years since she and Sean went from wandering to stability, she has never been treated so intimately by Sean. She even wondered if she was dreaming the last time she was kissed by Sean. But this time, when she was truly held in Sean's arms and felt Sean's body temperature and spacious chest, Cecilia finally calmed down.
¡°It¡¯s like a cat with explosive fur has finally been comforted and calmed down. It¡¯s so well-behaved.
"Really?" Cecilia asked softly.
"Yes." Cecilia, who was being held, couldn't see Sean's face. At this moment, a helpless smile appeared on Sean's face, "Anyway, the major issues that should be solved have basically been solved. Now there is no more Nothing can disturb us, so even if I want to put myself in danger, I can¡¯t find a reason to go out.¡±
Seemingly amused by Sean's words, Cecilia struggled slightly, got rid of Sean's embrace, and said with a smile: "There is no war now, there is no trouble that threatens the empire, what's wrong. Now Chai The Nass Empire is now internally unstable due to the suspicion of the new emperor, and there is no way to defeat us; in the Millennium Covenant Empire, Angel has returned to the country, and preparations have begun for the enthronement ceremony. We have such a fight with them The friendship is there, and because of the death tide, the Millennium Covenant Empire has no reason or ability to cause trouble to us. As for the other small countries in the surrounding area, they either rely on us or completely surrender to us, isn't that good?"
"That's good." Sean nodded. "This can provide us with at least thirty years of peace. After thirty years I'm afraid no empire will dare to take our chances." At this point , Sean remembered that Utopia was finally built and William was responsible for sending troops to garrison it, but Cecilia didn't know about this yet, so he said again: "I'm going to move the royal capital."
"Moving again?" Cecilia was stunned for a moment, "Isn't Oasis City bad? And there is also a Void Palace here"
"Oasis City will be the economic center of our empire in the future." Sean smiled, "But as a real political center, this place is not suitable. Do you still remember the utopia I mentioned to you?"
"A Utopia on Earth?"
"Yes." Sean nodded, "I have already recovered it. William is setting up defenses there now. We will move there soon. It will be the real capital of our empire from now on. But Neil will continue to stay. Here in Oasis City, after all, this is our real economic center, and the communication channel with the underground world is also here. We will develop a prosperous and huge city from here."
Listening to Sean's words, Cecilia's heart surged, and she knew that everything Sean said was true.
Because today's Oasis City has all the factors that can make this city a prosperous city: the teleportation array to establish diplomatic relations with the underground world is set up here, and a large number of goods transferred from the trade capital are stored here. The headquarters of the Void Merchant Group, which was formed after all the chambers of commerce in the city were integrated, was also established here. The families of the leaders of the major tribes in the wilderness also lived here. It can be said that the entire Oasis City has the best in both consumption and trade capabilities. It is unique, and can even be said to be the center of the entire southern continent.
And Cecilia believes that in the near future, this place will also become the center of the entire Miracle Continent.
"Butwhat about Utopia?" Cecilia asked.
Sean was distracted for a moment.
He recalled the process of fighting with his companions of Wings of the Void. It was a very difficult but fulfilling journey full of fun. Now, when the wish he had held on to for many years was finally fulfilled, he found that he actually felt relieved, and his whole body no longer seemed as tense as before.
"There is a holy place." Sean smiled, "In the future, it will become our political and cultural center. I will open an academy there to teach military, economics, politics, culture, magic, martial arts, etc. and all other courses to continuously export talents for our empire. All government orders, actions, appointments,All matters such as diplomacy will be released from there. In less than two years, Utopia will become the recognized center of the entire Void Empire, and countless people will want to live in this city. "
Listening to Sean¡¯s description, Cecilia¡¯s eyes shone brightly.
¡¡
The Void Empire has finally ushered in a period of rapid development in which the country is peaceful and the people are safe.
The only time there was some twists and turns was when Sean ordered the transfer of the empire's capital from Oasis City to Utopia. But this kind of twists and turns only came from the complaints of the nobles within the empire. No one who really wanted to refute or resist would be stupid enough to do such a thing.
Especially, the current situation around the Void Empire is just like what Cecilia said.
In the northeast, the Zenas Empire bordered the Void Empire because of the annexation of the Fascist Kingdom. Because the new emperor was dissatisfied with the military god Jason, all the affairs previously coordinated by Jason were gradually handed over and replaced with his own power. , this rectification will take at least ten years to be completed. If Jason's influence is also included, it will be impossible to solve it without twenty or thirty years.
As for the small principalities and kingdoms bordering on the east, as long as the Void Empire does not send troops to cause trouble for them, they will be thankful. How can they dare to cause trouble for the Void Empire? In the same way, the kingdoms and mercenary groups further south in the wilderness had the same mentality. Even after hearing that the Void Empire had stabilized, they hurriedly sent envoys to visit the empire and presented many treasures.
As for the north, that is the territory of the Kingdom of Lane, and this country is now following the Void Empire.
Similarly, bordering the Void Empire is the Millennium Covenant Empire in the West. However, when the death wave broke out, the two families had already negotiated everything through Angel, the intermediary. Now with Angel's accession to the throne, the Void Empire and the Millennium Covenant Empire have The Covenant Empire is already an allied power that advances and retreats together. It is worth mentioning that because Sean has basically conquered the entire underground world, the Millennium Covenant Empire no longer needs to waste heavy troops to guard the path of the abyss. After this combat power is completely liberated, the Millennium Covenant Empire also becomes the One of the most powerful military empires in the entire Miracle Continent.
It is said that the Emilia Empire, which has long been in dispute with the Millennium Covenant Empire, also had to send heavy troops to guard it to prevent the Millennium Covenant Empire from retaliating.
But these things now have nothing to do with Sean or the Void Empire.
The Void Empire, which has ushered in a period of peace, is also rapidly developing its own heritage. The potential accumulated due to Sean's disappearance for three years has finally exploded with the quelling of the death wave and the recovery of Utopia. The entire Void Empire also began to flourish according to Sean's vision.
Sean set aside a large area in the southeast of Utopia as the land for the future Void Academy.
The academy in Sean's imagination will have four major branches: military, government affairs, economics, and combat. There will be other more detailed internal divisions. For example, combat will have martial arts and magic related branches, and the military will also have staff, military, and military departments. Marching, formation and many more detailed small subjects, etc. Its main purpose is to transport all kinds of talents from all walks of life to the Void Empire. Even if they are not the top group, if they can transport a large number of middle-level personnel, they will meet the requirements of the Void Empire.
However, these things require a long time to prepare and replace, and cannot be completed in a short time.
Fortunately, what Sean lacks most now is time.
He firmly believes that under his rule, he will be able to witness with his own eyes that the entire Void Empire will eventually become a prosperous and powerful empire. Anyway, as long as he doesn't try to unify the entire Miracle Continent, he, the son of the plane, can continue to hold the position for a long time until the will of the world doesn't like him. However, according to Sean's estimation, it will take at least several thousand years for the will of the world to start cultivating the next successor and let him serve as a monitor.
Before this, he was not in a hurry.
"Perhaps it's time to get married?" Sean was lying on a bamboo chair, looking at Cecilia who was playing in the lake outside Utopia City, and then rubbed his chin and thought.
When Sean didn¡¯t think about it in the past, he didn¡¯t pay much attention to Cecilia¡¯s feelings for him, but once he found out, he could no longer hide his inner feelings. So since he moved to Utopia, he had nothing to do, so he went around to play with Cecilia, which was to make up for the regret that he had been running around here and there in the past ten years and not having much time to spend with Cecilia.
And as this period of time heats up, the relationship between the two naturally heats up quickly.?, so it is inevitable for Sean to have this idea.
After making a decision in his heart, Sean simply stood up and walked towards Cecilia: "Cecilia, let me tell you something."
"What's going on?" Cecilia turned around and looked at Sean. Looking at Sean's strong figure, her face couldn't help but blush slightly.
Reina, Xina, Hela, Shitli, Shefani and others beside them couldn't help but burst into snickers, which made Cecilia feel even more embarrassed. Although the relationship between the two is much closer than before, it is not what others thought. No matter how open the world is, Sean has never done anything outrageous to Cecilia. , even the kiss only happened once in the Void Palace.
Sean walked up to Cecilia and said, "Let's get married."
The bright sunshine shines on the land of Utopia.
Because this sanctuary completely rejects darkness, when the sun shines on the earth, the light here will show a holy halo.
The lake reflects the holy light, but the temperature of the lake water is also constantly increasing.
Cecilia¡¯s brain seemed to be shut down, and the only thing clearly visible was her face as red as a ripe apple.
When Rena and others heard Sean's bold words, Alfred, William, Neil and others next to them also began to make cheers, and of course there were also a lot of congratulations mixed in. Especially those old people who had watched Cecilia and Sean go through ups and downs together for more than ten years, let out a sigh.
But no one noticed that the temperature of the lake was rising rapidly.
It wasn¡¯t until the lake water began to bubble and Rena and others were screamed by the heat that everyone realized that the entire cool lake was no different from a hot spring.
At this moment, there was naturally another burst of busyness and screaming.
Sean, who had witnessed the "boiling a frog in warm water" drama, would not let go of such a good opportunity to laugh at him. But soon, these elegant ladies began to shift their attack targets, and they began to laugh at Cecilia. Of course, Sean didn't want to see Cecilia being laughed at, so he had to defend her.
By the lake, or rather by the hot spring, the lively laughter spread far away.
