"Are they telling the truth?"
In the obsidian hall of the Hell's Border, Angela, who was sitting next to Merlin, heard the conversation between Strange and Shazam in the projection in front of her.The Hunter Angel suddenly turned her head to look at the Raven Lord beside her, and she asked very dissatisfiedly, "In addition to killing everyone, is there a second way to win?"
”Merlin didn't answer, he seemed to be focused on the tome in his hand.Focus on learning and don't want to focus on other things.This attitude infuriated Angela.She stood up, unceremoniously snatched the dictionary from the raven's hand, and accused loudly: "You are operating in the dark!"
”"If there were such rules, you should have told everyone in the first place!"
Merlin, who was robbed of the book, was not angry either.He clapped his hands and motioned for Angela to calm down.He looked at the projection in front of him and said, "They are competing for the position of Supreme Mage, and they already have a great understanding of what that position represents before they start the competition. ”"I don't think I need to tell them anything else, and besides, I didn't set up a second way to win, Angela, it's not a secret operation, there is still only one condition for victory.""
Whoever can make it to the end will be the winner!"
Raven glanced at Angela, who was surprised, and said, "If you are curious about the secrets that I and the Three Spirits of the Weishan Emperor have set up for this world, then I can only tell you that it is 'Hard' mode. ”"Hardmode?"
The Hunter Angel glanced at the projection, and she said suspiciously, "So, that's an option?"
”"Yes, saving a world that is in despair and has no future is an option."
Merlin let out a sigh of relief, and said, "Competitors can go and fight each other, and use direct means to sweep away the enemy with the greatest force and win." ”"They can also withstand the pressure of others and try to help that world in impossible scenarios, and it doesn't affect the battle itself, we just simulate the daily work of the Supreme Mage.""
Do you think that the Supreme Master just stays on his throne every day and looks down on all beings?
Is that simple?
”The Raven Lord whispered, "Foresee the occurrence of the catastrophe in advance, prevent the catastrophe from coming, and nip the danger in the bud, but if the danger has already appeared, then the Supreme Mage will personally die." ”"Not only to defeat the enemies who are causing the suffering, but also to try in every way to save the lives of those who are suffering, the responsibility on her shoulders is far greater than the honor she enjoys."
Angela listened to Raven's explanation, and she couldn't refute it, because Merlin was telling the truth.How can the facts be refuted?
But not all of her questions were answered.Still frowning, she asked, "But what's the point?"
”"I mean, since there is still only one victory condition, and the person who survives to the end becomes the Supreme Mage, what is the point of choosing this Hardmode?
Again, this is not a plus challenge. ”"Well, you're a political idiot."
Merlin shook his head helplessly.He had to explain it more clearly, saying, "I told these contestants before the scramble started that the scramble would be open to all caster factions. ”"In other words, as long as there is only the existence of magical forces in the world that has been protected by the Supreme Mage, they can all see the picture of this battle.""
What is the Supreme Mage?
That's the spiritual leader of all spellcasters...""
A person with great strength may be able to defeat all the challengers easily, but if he can't convince the public, then this Supreme Mage's name is not worthy of his name.""
That's what Hardmode is all about."
Merlin flicked his fingers, and he said aloud, "What kind of leader will be respected and obeyed unconditionally?"
There is perhaps no one definitive answer to this question, and there are different interpretations of this in all civilizations. ”"But one thing, when a terrible crisis comes, people will always hope that the leader of their battle is a hero who will never give up, will never sit idly by and watch the destruction spread, and will try to save every victim.""
Do you understand what I mean now?"
Merlin looked at the projection in front of him and said, "The pursuit of victory is only the first stage, they not only want to win, but they have to win beautifully." ”"Let all the onlookers be convinced, and let all those who are waiting for the birth of the next Supreme Master see their charisma and dedication to their duties.""
If they don't understand this, if they can't do this, then even if I give them the position of Supreme Mage, they will definitely not be able to sit still!""
Of course, there are always exceptions."
Merlin looked at the projection that was focusing on Doom, he rubbed his chin, and said, "If the strength of an individual is strong enough to deal with all sudden disasters on his own, then even a cold guy will be respected by everyone, after all, spellcasters know how to respect power." ”"Your Excellency Doom is really very good, he has understood this.""
Look, he's trying to show his power to all the onlookers."———————————— Victor.
Feng.
Doom, a legend in the European wizarding world.In his 20s, his life had nothing to do with magic, until an accident occurred that made Doom see the limits of the technological power he had been pursuing.He turned to the study of magic.Doom's comprehension of magic is completely self-taught, his talent for spell-casting is completely monster-level, and he has also relied on himself to study the way of magic and energy conversion, and put together his own spell-casting system.But his own character is difficult to fathom, both good and evil.He has been involved in many things, solved many problems on his own, but has shown no mercy to anyone who tries to stop him, regardless of their identity.In the eyes of many spellcasters, Doom is a big villain.But the fact that Doom and Latvia, the small country he sheltered, still exist and maintain order and peace is enough to prove that Doom has enough power to deter those malicious incursions.Doom is also a very intelligent man, and has his own unique opinions on everything.A few hours earlier, Doom had crushed the siege of the other competitors with a single blow of the energy cube from A.I.M. that he had prevented, but he hadn't let his guard down.Instead, Doom had already started the work before Strange, Shazam, and Hermione were ready to start Hard Mode to save the world.The previous Big Bang was an attempt.If he can send all his opponents out of the field with one blow, and if he can easily win, Doom is naturally happy to do it.But the result of the explosion was not ideal, and only one competitor was sent away, which means that the other opponents still have the strength to resist, so it needs to be slowly figured out.As for the duties of the Supreme Mage, as well as the secrets hidden in this Supreme Mage battle, Doom is also curious and exploratory.But unlike Strange, who struggled to find clues, Doom relied on his own insight and wisdom to deduce the current situation facing the world in a short period of time.When he entered this world, he used his own monitoring system to see the current situation of the whole world.He also intends to save it.In this way, he showed the onlookers his persistence in fulfilling the duties of the Supreme Mage, as well as his unique strength.And the way he saves the world is very, very hardcore.Since the enemy is there...
Well, you're done!"
Boom" Doom hovered in the haze sky, and a scorching beam of light erupted from the armor of his hands, knocking back a few steps from the murky sea like a crab but covered in flesh and blood.In the conversion of magic and energy, all the energy rings in Doom's scarred silver armor were lit up.Regardless of the consumption, the light of the energy cannon on Dum's chest became more and more intense, as if there was a small sun shining in the sky.After a few seconds of charging, a scorching pillar of light erupted from Doom's chest and slammed into the massive flesh monster's body on the ground.Like a scorching sharp knife, it easily sliced through the monster's carapace with ease and destroyed its ugly life.In the disgusting, rote-like smell of barbecue, Doom, suspended in the sky, snapped his fingers, and the weapon slot behind the armor quickly opened.One after another, black missiles rushed into the sky, slashed across the white trajectory, and bombarded the mountainous beach in front of them in a way of shooting."
Boom" filled the land with firelight like a land bombardment, burying all the twisted monsters that had swooped out of the sea in the sea in flames.This isn't the first time Doom has fought these crazy monsters.Behind him, at the edge of the valley, a layer of charred creature had been piled up, and this was not the first attack by these flesh monsters from the sea.And their attack on Doom was not purely malicious.The old man tells Strange that the cursed flesh that covers the world and tries to devour it is an aggregate of a vast consciousness that has a mind of its own.Now, it was urging the flesh monsters to attack Doom, also because it felt a mortal threat."
Bang" Doom manipulated the armor and landed at the edge of the valley.He took out a brand new set of green cloaks from his magic space, draped them on his body, and then took out a blue magic gem and crushed it in his hand, allowing the slightly dried mana to recover quickly.He looked back and saw several instruments in operation in the guarded valley.Several robotic arms move flexibly, and a special missile is quickly assembled on the temporary launch frame that has been built.It was three people tall, its silver-gray shell was stacked on the ground, and inside the very sophisticated machinery, in the core groove of the explosion department, a dark blue energy cube was glittering.Doom had used it before, easily defeating the other competitors.And that's not all the power of this thing, the energy compressed inside it is extremely terrifying, and in the case of complete detonation, its destructive power is already comparable to the full force of a Heavenly Father.At least in this competition, this thing is a symbol of invincible power.And now, Doom is going to use it as a pure explosive.He had to rely on the combat support system of his battle armor to shoot this missile carrying the energy cube into the atmosphere, just like the principle of an intercontinental missile, so that it crossed more than half the world and fell into the core of the Eastern Continent.It is also where the Flesh Curse of this world was first born, and it is the heart of the flesh monsters of this world.According to Doom's plan, as long as this missile hits the target, the destructive power it produces is completely enough to severely damage the material plane, and even kill the monsters that are trying to devour the world.Of course, this kind of Heavenly Father-level explosion would definitely completely destroy the structure of the Eastern Continent.But for this world that has been completely desperate, the destruction of a continent is not a big deal.This is Doom's salvation plan.Rough, simple, brutal, domineering, but very feasible.This can be seen from the "rocket launch base" where "it" frantically drove the monsters under the sea to attack Doom, and it obviously felt a mortal crisis.It was going to stop Doom from firing the missile.The murky waters lapped against the shore, and between the rolling of the tide, there were large, distorted shadows emerging from the bottom of the sea, like a mountain range under the sea.And before the monster arrived, the fallen fishmen who were summoned from the dark abyss, those who looked like deep divers, rushed out of the sea first.It stands to reason that these cowardly creatures would not dare to attack a powerful life like Doom.But it was clear from their blood-red eye bubbles that it had clearly given the order to die, and it would do whatever it took to bring Doom's plan of salvation to an end.Of course, in addition to these flesh tokens, there are more troublesome forces approaching.Dumb not looking at the flesh monsters rushing to land, he looked up, and in the tactical eyepiece of the steel visor under the hood, Doom saw the arc of light shining in the deep clouds of the sky.The red, white, blue, ominous halos were gathering, like the gates of chaos were about to open.Under the threat of destruction, "it" is also calling for reinforcements.The evil spirits from the same world as it, the spirit monsters born from the Lightless Sea, are the opponents who will give Doom more headaches.It would take several hours for the missile to be assembled, and Doom would have to delay until then.He could have asked for help from others, but he didn't."
The strong are always lonely."
Doom flew back into the sky, his arms outstretched, and in the scorching glow of the laser cannon, the screaming flesh monsters were torn apart and burned by the flames, and in the midst of this destruction, Doom's deep voice came from under the visor.He said, "I will save the world, and I will mercifully give it hope and new life...""
I'll do it all on my own.""
I will show you, a colder and more powerful Supreme Mage, a Supreme One who is strong enough to shield you from all calamities, and a monarch of the realms of the Mighty Town.""
Divine Monarch Doom...""
Hooray!"
