Golden Dragon: Six Thousand Years of Empire.

Chapter 512: Dark Disaster
To bear the disgrace of the country is to be the lord of the country, to bear the misfortune of the country is to be the king of the world.

This is the best interpretation of the fundamental factors that generate the dark fruit of the golden tree.

The nutrients for the formation and growth of each dark fruit come from the extreme negative emotions generated by Noah's subjects, dependents, and followers.

If it is just an ordinary complaint, such as an ordinary citizen of the Holy Dragon Land who thinks that his efforts have not resulted in a higher quality of life, the negative emotions generated by this complaint will not have any impact on the birth of the Dark Fruit.

But if a law-abiding citizen leads a normal life but suddenly encounters a disaster, then the despair and resentment that arises at the moment before misfortune strikes, this burst of negative emotions will provide a lot of nutrients for the birth of the dark fruit.

However, such emergencies are extremely rare. For most people in the Holy Dragon Land, their extreme negative emotions are caused by the injustice and grievances that they cannot resist. The resulting negative emotions will provide excellent nutrients for the growth of dark fruits.

When the base was still small, Noah frequently used the Word Spirit·Emperor to review the order he had established to avoid such injustice and grievances. Once he noticed them, he would deal with them quickly.

Precisely because Noah, as the supreme ruler and creator of the Golden Order, frequently intervened and made corrections, the territory ruled by Noah was praised by moral guardians such as the Holy Knights from the very beginning, and became the place of yearning and dream for many righteous people.

But when the base expanded, even if Noah's ability to handle things improved, the improvement in this ability was far less than the speed of his territorial expansion.

Not to mention that after the expansion of the territory, the problems that Noah, as the Dragon King, needed to deal with increased exponentially. Even if Noah once again ordered the goblins to form a secret affairs department to assist him in processing important documents from various worlds in the void, he was still very busy.

All the fairies who joined the secret affairs department, no matter how cheerful and optimistic they were, would become filled with resentment after a period of settling down.

Because the documents they need to deal with every day are piled up like mountains, and because each document is of vital importance and can affect the fate of tens of thousands or even more lives, but they are unable to master the corresponding authority and are merely goblins who serve as tools to process documents.

Of course, fortunately, the resentment of the fairies would not be transformed into nutrients for the dark fruit. After all, they were just exhausted and did not suffer from extreme despair that endangered their lives.

All the goblins are in this state. As the lord, Noah does not feel tired, but the documents he needs to deal with now will never be finished, and will only increase instead of decreasing.

Precisely because there are so many things dividing and consuming energy, even if Noah can use the Word Spirit·Emperor to send down more wills at the same time, judge injustice, and maintain order, compared to the vastness of Noah's territory, this interference and judgment is really insignificant.

This means that when the great expedition begins, the number of dark fruits on the branches of the golden tree will increase exponentially. Even if Noah has to reluctantly clean up some of them every once in a while, he will not be able to keep up with the speed of the fruit growth.

“It’s getting worse!”

The golden tree was still shining brightly among the swirling nebulae, but deep in the tree canopy, the dark fruits that looked like black holes swallowing up light were so terrifying that even Noah, who had now been promoted to the Dragon King, could not help but frown when he saw such fruits.

Noah can ensure the stability of his basic order. In the Dragon Realm, there will be no corrupt officials who dare to blatantly challenge the rules of the Golden Order. Even if there are some guys who want to make some small moves, they will be extremely restrained and will not cause any trouble that will wrath God and people.

Because since Noah took control of the world, they have been killing generation after generation, and the powerful and wealthy class who are still alive have long become obedient. As long as they want to stay alive, they dare not overstep the line.

But outside the Dragon Realm, the golden order that spreads with the advancement of the Legion cannot be as perfect as the Dragon Realm itself. There must be gaps, and where there are gaps, injustice and selfish desires will run rampant.

Noah wanted to suspend the expansion of the legion and restore order, but there were too many dragon people who wanted to be promoted through war. Especially after the descendants of the holy dragon were deified one after another, many dragon group commanders were even more crazy.

The highest achievement of the plane expedition has appeared, that is the immortal god. Although only the descendants of the holy dragon have achieved it so far, other dragon legion commanders also have the opportunity to achieve the same achievement.

This is an immortal god. Only Noah, the Dragon King, can ignore it. Other beings, even Noah's eldest son, are willing to do so.

This is not to mention other dragon commanders who have opportunities. Therefore, wanting to postpone the suspension of the plane expedition and stabilize the order is against the wishes of the entire dragon group. Noah can certainly use absolute violence to suppress it and make all dragons submit to his opinions, but dissatisfaction will definitely arise.

So, when his adoptive mother Selina made the request, Noah agreed without hesitation. Leading the legion's troops towards the abyss and tearing the abyss apart is also an excellent choice.

Although there will inevitably be casualties in the process of attacking the abyss, casualties are inevitable in war. On the contrary, by slaughtering demons, the golden tree will give more positive feedback.

Slaughtering demons will not only produce blood-source fruit, but also special fruits such as sky fruit and natural fruit. These fruits can allow Noah to peek into the ancient memories of the world, and more importantly, gain the favor of the will of many material planes.

Noah already knew why he was able to receive special treatment when he came into contact with other material planes. It was because the wills of these worlds could feel the achievements he had made.

“I wonder what these fruits will eventually become?”

Noah stretched out his dragon claws and plucked a dark fruit from the tree. He swallowed it before the fruit melted, tasting the despair and unwillingness contained in it with his own mouth, bearing everything with the spiritual will of the Dragon King.

The extreme negative emotions of just a few thousand people, or even tens of thousands of people, would not be able to shake Noah's spiritual will. But what if there were millions or tens of millions of people, a world filled with despair and unwillingness?

War is always dangerous. A war to conquer the world cannot always be victorious. There are also failed battles where entire armies are annihilated. The despair and pain brewed in these battles would take even Noah, the Dragon King, a while to calm down.

One after another, the dark fruits on the golden tree accumulated more and more. Noah could no longer clear out all the fruits on the tree before each transformation as he did before he became an adult. He could not bear such suffering.

He could only maintain the number of these dark fruits at a relatively safe ratio to maintain the brilliance and prosperity of the golden tree as much as possible.

"Maybe it's time to think of a solution!" Allowing darkness to spread on the golden tree is definitely not a good thing. Although Noah can confirm that he will not die because of it, the darkened golden tree will definitely affect him and cause some bad changes in him.

These adverse changes may not cause any harm to Noah himself, but they may not be harmful to his family, servants, and even his descendants.

"Root rules!"

Noah slowly savored the golden fruits on the treetops one by one, feeling the many extreme negative emotions contained in them. At the same time, he stared at the golden tree in front of him, trying to analyze the composition of this tree.

Only by deconstructing the golden tree can we solve the problem of the dark fruit from the source, rather than passively accepting it.

Of course, there is a worse and most likely scenario. Even if the golden tree is deconstructed, there is no way to solve the problem. One can only bear the consequences, but when the disaster occurs, one will understand more and no longer be confused.

boom!
"Fate, cause and effect..."

When Noah tried to analyze the golden tree with his status as the Dragon King, the sacred tree before him turned into endless shining and interwoven light. It was light of different colors, and every ray of it contained supreme power.

But after just staring for a while, Noah closed his eyes and stopped spying. He only slightly touched a part of it, as if he understood but had never touched upon the rules. It was as if billions of worlds were shining before his eyes, and as if the sea of ​​stars were pouring back. Even Noah, the Dragon King, could not bear such an impact.

"What the hell are you?"

When Noah stopped spying on the golden tree, the golden tree turned back into a shining divine tree, dazzling and brilliant. The light patterns flowing on the tree were like surging rivers. Between the treetops, many fruits of various colors bloomed, just like huge stars rotating, and a universe was bred in it.

……

"Expedition to the Abyss!"

A whisper came from the iron starship cruising in the void. The god of the underworld, sitting in the deepest part of the metal fortress, slowly opened his eyes, and the golden and brilliant divine light shone.
"Is it because of the Augustus family again?"

The whisper of the Lord of Death did not elicit any response. This huge starship sailing in the void, like a small material world, had no living life except this existence.

However, there are quite a few mechanical undead moving silently. It is these special undead, which are unknown but possess extremely high intelligence, that maintain the operation of this huge starship.

Although this starship itself has a certain self-repair ability, because this starship is the kingdom of the God of Death and Machinery, as for its origin, it was not funded and built by the God of Death, but an unexpected gain when he was wandering in the void.

Needless to say, as a true god walking in the void and also the Dragon God, Tairamus can escape unscathed even if he encounters a powerful divine power. What's more, with his current identity and status, no powerful divine power will jump out and deliberately make things difficult for him.

Therefore, Tyramus, who had been walking in the void for many years, had indeed reaped a lot of rewards. Not to mention that he had entered the lower planes more than once and intercepted the treasures and accumulations of those evil demon lords over the years. There were also many evil tribes in the void, which were also within the scope of Tyramus's elimination.

"Looks like I have to go back too!"

Teramus was very self-aware and he still had some thoughts about the orders his father had given him, but if it was because of the Augustus family, then there was no need to express these thoughts.

Not only Telramus, but also Iliad, who had already raised the Kingdom of God to the heavens, and Skadilo, the goddess of wealth and ice and snow, who held the Kingdom of God high above the Dragon Realm, were all ready to join this war.

When these descendants of the Holy Dragon began to prepare to launch an attack on the abyss, the commanders of the major dragon war groups also followed the orders of the Holy Dragon, began to withdraw their military forces, began to gather towards the Dragon Realm, and floating cities leaped in the void.

The vast majority of dragon people had no objection to the orders issued personally by His Majesty the Holy Dragon, because as long as there was war, it meant opportunities for promotion and wealth resources. However, the land of the abyss really had no business value, at least not in the eyes of ordinary dragon people.

But it is enough to gain merit just by launching a war against the abyss. As for failure, no dragon man or commander will consider this. They don't believe that with the current military strength of the Holy Dragon Empire, it will fail in the war to conquer the abyss.

It's just a matter of how much they are willing to pay. As long as they are willing, they can definitely achieve the goals set by His Majesty the Holy Dragon.

When the Holy Dragon Noah gathered his own army of followers, Hell, which had been severely damaged by the invasion of two epics and had been seriously injured, had regrouped and formed a devil coalition that had almost never appeared since the appearance of this hell.

Invade the Abyss!

For the devils, this is the temptation second only to rushing into the material world and plundering the souls of mortals. It is obvious that the Titan Lord, who now has the highest authority and is recognized as the strongest devil lord, does not allow them to enter the material world, but leaves a hidden hand in the abyss.

The deep red magic power burning like flames is continuously flowing and dripping on the gate of hell made of bones. When this portal with the power to penetrate the realm begins to rumble and vibrate, the will of hell also begins to boil. The whistling and roaring of magic power condensing are like the roar of some invisible yet real behemoth. It has already sensed that it will receive an unprecedented replenishment.

When this gate of hell and the corresponding gate of the abyss were connected to each other, the scene on the other side suddenly came into the eyes of both sides. The dark red moon hung in the sky, bringing great ominousness. The purple stars twinkled in the starry sky, full of evil, as if some huge, unknown and terrible existence was spying.

When chaos and disorder come into contact, even though they are essentially the same, their opposition to each other causes the portal that connects time and space to roar, but this confrontation at the rule level soon ends.
