After evolving from an eagle-man into an angel, I annihilated the gods.

After bidding farewell to the emperor, the woman with the mechanical arm came to the edge of the steel structure's deck. The mechanical sequence power surged throughout her body, and strands of black iron light and shadow overlapped and covered her body, eventually transforming into a pair of black iron wings.

The wings are made entirely of thin black iron plates, thousands upon thousands of which make up the wings. When the wind blows, they make a series of metallic clanging sounds.

The robotic arm woman casually flapped it twice, then took a deep breath, flew into the sky, and went to coordinate manpower.

Apart from the emperor.

The majority of those in the entire Northern Empire are superhumans with mechanical abilities.

That is why they were loyal to the emperor.

Those with a mechanical sequence can generate a pair of metal wings at sequence 7, achieving the ability to fly only at sequence 4 for other sequences.

The rise of the Northern Empire was also related to the birth of the mechanical sequence.

When the flames of steam industry spread across the continent, the Kingdom of Nufaro, hundreds of years ago, was among the first to join this reform.

The mechanical sequence was also born in this kingdom, and later the emperor used the flying mechanical legion composed of the mechanical sequence and various steam mechanical creations to conquer the north and south, forging the Northern Empire.

On the giant, dragonfly-like flying steel structure, the emperor of the Northern Empire saw the woman with the mechanical arm descend from the sky. After waiting a while, he spoke to the guards behind him.

“Let’s go. The Kingdom of Gabriel has been destroyed, and Landisel has no power to resist. Let’s go to their palace and see if there are any clues left about the Sun King.”

He believed that the fleeing prince and princess, having left in haste, would have been unable to take away most of the Sun King's relics, and that something must have been left behind.

The emperor, with extraordinary power emanating from his mechanical sequence, appeared on his back with a pair of bronze wings, which then flapped and soared into the sky.

Although he can fly without wings using his own strength, he is used to flying with wings.

Behind him, dozens of guards, also of the mechanical type, spread their metal wings and followed the emperor.

Soon, they arrived at the palace.

An imperial general walked up to the emperor and knelt down.

"Your Majesty, we have found the remains of the Sun King within the palace."

“Well done, Mittal, take me there.”

The emperor smiled slightly.

The group walked through the same corridor that King Faniki Gabriel had led his children through a dozen days earlier, and arrived at the entrance of a palace.

At the door.

The two black-robed superhumans had been lying in pools of blood for a long time.

"Your Majesty, these two were guards. Although it took some effort, we managed to kill them. Now we have unimpeded passage. Please come in!"

The emperor's gaze swept over the two dead men in black robes.

“Servant sequence”.

Then he nodded casually.

"Come on, let's go in."

Just entered.

Everyone, including the emperor, instinctively held their breath and made no noise.

For before them stood a statue of a handsome man in a white robe, who, though not wearing a crown, possessed a magnanimous spirit, like a peerless monarch.

"It's a statue of the Sun King!"

The group was utterly shocked, and even the emperor instinctively wanted to bow.

But soon.

They then realized what was happening.

Why would they bother with a statue of an ancient person?

"The Sun King of ancient times was so majestic and awe-inspiring, and this is just a statue."

The general sighed.

"Indeed, it is an extraordinary existence."

The emperor nodded, but the awe in his eyes slowly faded.

As the emperor of the empire, he naturally possessed an air of arrogance. Initially shocked, he has now regained his composure and naturally does not consider himself inferior to a legendary ancient monarch.

After a moment of silence, the general glanced at the emperor, understood his meaning, and began to give instructions to the soldiers present.

"Search everywhere and see if there are any other clues."

"And everyone be careful, this is an ancient relic."

Soon after, a soldier reported back.

"Your Majesty, there is a hidden compartment behind the statue, but it is empty."

The emperor narrowed his eyes.

"It seems they took it away."

"Let's look again, see if there's anything else."

"It's gone here, and it's gone here too."

Half a day later.

No one gained anything.

The emperor was somewhat angry. He looked around the palace and then at the imposing statue, and said in a deep voice.

"It's not here, it's not there either, could it still be inside this statue?"

"If that's the case, then let's break it and see!"

The imperial general trembled upon hearing this.

"No, Your Majesty! This is a statue of the ancient Sun King, the origin of the Jade Nobles. It must not be offended."

"What, Mittal? He's an ancient king of your family. But I'm not?"

"Uh, Your Majesty, that's not what I meant."

The general was so frightened that his face changed drastically.

He was indeed born into the Jade Noble Family and was a duke in ancient times, but was conquered by the empire a thousand years ago.

"I mean, there are very few relics of the ancient Sun King..."

"So what? The era of the Sun King is over. Now, it is the era of my Nufaro Empire!"

The emperor snorted coldly, stepped forward, raised his hand into a fist, and was about to smash the ancient statue with one punch.

But that's it.

Suddenly, lightning flashed and thunder roared across the entire sky.

In an instant, a torrential downpour began.

And within this endless lightning.

A majestic and sacred figure seemed to emerge from the dimensions of time and space, appearing in this real world from the illusory one.

With silver hair and purple eyes, clad in a white robe, he walked with his hand on his sword, exuding a vast and majestic aura of royalty that swept over everyone present, even the great emperor of the empire.

Inside the palace.

Jiang You stepped out of the river of history, paying no attention to the kneeling officials and ministers of the Northern Empire before him, but instead frowned and muttered to himself.

"Where has Supreme Mountain Green gone to hide again?"

He descended here because a trace of his presence lingered here.

The emperor was right; there was indeed a garment he had once worn inside the statue.

If the emperor were to receive this garment, he might actually gain some insights.

At this time.

Among the kneeling crowd, the imperial general and the emperor exchanged a glance, both noticing the shock in each other's eyes.

The two exchanged glances for a moment, and then made a decision.

The general gritted his teeth, raised his head, and looked at the people who had arrived.

He was shocked at first glance.

"With silver hair and purple eyes, clad in a white robe, incomparably handsome, and noble beyond compare, you are the ancient and great Sun King!"
