I am a reincarnation player.

The materials technology in this world is extremely advanced. Those buildings with red roofs and white walls look exquisite, but in fact they are much stronger than concrete. A 155mm artillery shell can only blow through the roof. Ordinary monster-level players will die of exhaustion and cannot destroy it.
But for me, a slap could easily flatten half a block.
"Lord Crown?" Hathaway felt a chill down her spine for some reason.
"Oh, this city is nice, but why can't I see the abyss?" Yuki pointed to the distance. He could only see the blue sea and white seagulls fishing.
"The abyss is beneath the sea. I heard from the old people that it's probably several thousand meters deep, and it's guarded by the dragon clan. We at Abyss Castle are only responsible for catching the fish that slip through the net."
The people here are quite simple and honest. They answer whatever Yuki asks, but the old bastard Yuki feels something is wrong as soon as he hears it.
The sea monsters will break away from the suppression and come ashore, which must be prevented, but what is needed is a highly mobile patrol team, not a steel fortress. The sea monsters can't be mentally retarded, right? Would they just escape from prison and then crash into the iron wall?
"No, a few escaped fish need a fortress? Need to prepare troops?"
Hathaway was stunned for a moment, as if she had never thought about this question at all, and at this moment, a bold and loud voice came.
"Hahaha, you're worthy of being a God Ascendant. You immediately saw the true purpose of the Abyss Castle."
"Warmaster." The maids curtsied, and the warriors on both sides of the stairs knelt on one knee. Yuki hesitated for a moment, feeling the pressure from behind, and then turned around.
He saw a giant over three meters tall, wearing a purple cloak and golden armor covered with runes. Hanging from his waist was a large sword that was two palms wide and nearly two meters long. There was an exquisite sculpture on the end of the hilt. Looking closely, it was the fish-headed and human-bodied burly man from before.
Like a soldier, his armor only protected his chest and abdomen. His bronze arms were thicker than Yuuki's thighs, and every muscle line seemed to be sculpted by a master. Looking at his angular face, the only adjective that came to Yuuki's mind was "steel".
His jawline was a steel cliff forged in battle, with three parallel scars extending from his cheekbone to his Adam's apple. His eyes, like Hathaway's, were azure blue, calm at the moment, but who knows when they would turn into a raging storm.
Feeling Yuki's sharp gaze, the Warmaster remained calm and smoothed his stubble. "Sir Crown, I know I'm handsome, but you don't have to admire me so much. It seems I made a mistake sending Hathaway to greet you. I should have sent those handsome young men in the army."
"Father!" Hathaway's identity was exposed, and she blushed immediately. She slapped him, but it was towards his armpit which was not protected by armor.
There was a loud bang, and the ground beneath the strong man's feet cracked. His smile immediately turned painful.
I was wrong. This is at least a monster-level female warrior. Even her acting coquettishly has been transformed into a fighting instinct.
Yuki retracted his gaze, without explaining his orientation, and simply smiled and said, "Seeing you reminds me of an old friend who was also a commander."
That’s right, Yuki just thought of the commander-in-chief of the defense army, the generous man who gave him the fire.
“Equally handsome?”
"No, he's not as narcissistic as you, but he's just as generous as you."
"Good taste! It's a shame I don't know that person, otherwise I'd have a few drinks with him." The War Marshal strode over, followed by a group of guards carrying tables, chairs, benches, and wine jugs. "Hahaha, I've been waiting for you at the headquarters for a long time without seeing you, so I took the initiative to come out. Since you like to enjoy the scenery, let's drink and talk here."
"Father, have you forgotten mother's order to abstain from alcohol for a month? Abyss Castle takes orders as its mission." Hathaway reminded him sarcastically. The man named Long Xinghu Bu suddenly stopped and turned around stiffly.
"Uh, well, Lord Klauen is a guest. As the commander of Abyssal Castle, how can I not personally entertain him?!"
"But Lord Crown never said he wanted to drink. Even if he wanted to drink, he wouldn't hold up the wine jar like you do."
Yuki looks a bit old in this vest. He is in his forties and looks more like someone who likes to enjoy black tea rather than drink strong liquor.
An interesting person, this kind of personality cannot be faked, nor does it look like it is faked.
Yuki saw the dignified warlord winking at him frantically, and within three minutes of their meeting, he had already drawn a basic portrait of the character.
Generous, strong, resolute, but also henpecked, this type of person values family very much and poses a relatively low threat.
"Ms. Hathaway, it's okay to have a drink occasionally." Yuki took off his single-lens glasses, becoming less elegant and more sharp. He was a simple person. If you want to play dirty, I will follow suit. If you want to be generous, I won't keep guessing like a villain.
"Ha, did you hear that? Go home quickly, your mission has been completed." The war commander suddenly became proud, making his daughter so angry that her cheeks puffed up.
"Whatever you want, just drink yourself to death."
The girl ran away, apparently to ask for help. The warlord touched his hedgehog-like golden short hair, took the wine jug from the guard, walked over, crushed the seal, and drank from it.
"Don't mind me, these women are just too ignorant. With such a beautiful scenery, why don't they just sit here and chat for free without any wine?"
The rich aroma of wine dripped down my chin. The small table was already set, and it was full of fish. The scenery facing the sea on this mountain top was beautiful.
The warlord swallowed half a pot of wine and sat down on the ground. He saw Yuki standing solemnly beside him. He frowned, then raised his hand like a palm-leaf fan and patted his forehead.
"You idiots, you have no sense at all. Why don't you pour Mr. Crown's wine?"
The guards around looked at each other, and finally a handsome young man stepped out.
"Warmaster, you said you drank all ten jars of fine wine yourself. Just now, when the brothers reported that Mr. Crown didn't look like a warrior, you were overjoyed and said we could take this opportunity to drink..."
"Bullshit! When did I ever say that?" The Warmaster glared at the young man, causing him to swallow the rest of his words. He then smiled slyly, "Go get a wine glass, uh, a smaller one. If Lord Crown doesn't drink, how can I drink?"
Well, it turns out you had planned this all along. I drink one glass and you drink ten jars, and you call it sharing ten jars with me.
Yuki had no interest in alcohol to begin with, so he looked at the Warmaster who was taking his second sip and stretched out his right hand.
"Hermit Crown."
The man was stunned for a moment, put down the wine jar and held it tightly.
"Warmaster, Dias."
Chapter 2 Abyss Castle
Sitting cross-legged on the top of a thousand-meter mountain, overlooking the endless sea.
What lies before my eyes is a clean and tidy city, with simple and hardworking people and bright smiles on the faces of men, women, young and old. In this epic perception, not a single crime can be seen.
The soldiers were on high alert and strictly disciplined, yet not cold at all. Some took off their armor and went home for lunch, while others put down their spears and helped out on the docks. The phrase "the close relationship between the military and the people" appeared in my mind after a long absence.
The sea breeze was mixed with the aroma of wine, and he listened to a slightly tipsy man bragging. It was the ninth time he entered the dungeon, but for the first time, Yuki felt the beauty, just like the sunshine above his head.
It's not strong, but it gives people a warm feeling called comfort.
"Ha, you guessed right. The real purpose of the Abyss Castle is to monitor the dragon clan. Only they need such an iron wall." The War Marshal, holding a salted fish in his mouth, finally finished recounting his glorious resume, talking about how many sea monsters he had killed.
"This is easy to guess, but have the dragons ever come to invade?" Yuki took the wine glass and took a sip. He only drank half a glass, while the War Marshal drank five jars in a mad frenzy. It seemed that he was too pent up to hold it in.
"No, at least not since the Great War. They were suppressed by the Lord God in the cracks on the seabed. No matter how reluctant they are, they have to guard it obediently. But it's better to be prepared. Occasionally, powerful sea monsters will come ashore."
Yuki nodded. He almost understood. The dragons were actually imprisoned as well. The Abyss Castle was there to prevent them from escaping. If nothing unexpected happened...
They will definitely escape.
"You seem to trust me?" Yuki asked again.
"Anyone who embarks on the Path of Trial is worthy of respect. My eldest son also passed the Trial and became a God." He looked proud and lowered his voice, "You have the qualifications for the Trial, so even if you eventually leave, you can still be of great help. To be honest, my grandfather's generation had people like you to help. We fought side by side, hunted a sea demon, and saved the day."
Yuuki enjoyed the kindness of his senior for the first time, but also felt ironic because of it.
Unlike my predecessors, this time I received a mission of destruction, and all the beautiful things in front of me must be destroyed.
"Of course, people are different, but when I saw you, I felt like I had a good relationship with you. You must be a warm-hearted hero with a strong sense of justice. Don't worry, I will fully support you." Diaz patted Yuki's shoulders.
Me, warm-hearted? Sense of justice?
Yuuki found it even more ironic, but after seeing the epic reviews of the End of the War and the Night Watch, he couldn't refute it.
"Is there a world map? I'd like to study it."
"What are you standing there for? Open my military map." Zhan Shuai waved his hand, and the black-haired young man immediately took out a triangular device, pinched it lightly with his palm, and projected a ray of light.
The whole picture of the Hero Continent appeared in Yuki's eyes. As expected, the blue light spots of human city-states were distributed all over the continent, and they were far apart. There were large uninhabited areas, and the Abyss Castle was at the easternmost end of the continent.
There are also some red spots scattered between the city-states.
"what are these?"
"The demon settlements that have been discovered are the larger ones. Don't worry, they all abide by the rules set by the gods and are also thinking about how to pass the trials and become gods." The war general took another bite of dried fish and said nonchalantly.
Oh, players are randomly assigned to these light spots, so of course there can't be so many.
"What about this?" Yuki pointed to the white light spot in the center of the continent, which was the brightest.
"The gate to the divine realm is where the gods reside. If you want to continue the trial, you must report there first. You are the only ones who are qualified to take the trial at the beginning." The war commander suddenly became serious and didn't even eat the dried fish.
"Then how do I qualify for the trial?"
"You will be qualified if you punish evil and promote good, and kill the evil demons. Of course, you don't have to go. Someone as awesome as me couldn't leave these guys behind, so I didn't go." Zhan Shuai puffed out his chest.
So that's how it is. The so-called road of trial is to continuously kill demons and eventually become a god.
Yuki understood a little more and no longer had any further questions to ask.
This heroic continent is actually a flat land with a round sky.
This is normal in the fantasy world, but Yuki feels something is wrong. It is related to an imperceptible detail.
The copies before ascension are generally limited to certain areas, and he doesn't know what the entire world looks like. But after ascension, everything follows physics and he completes tasks on each planet.
Forget about the Universal Insect Plague. Yuki saw the Emerald Star with his own eyes. The Wizard's Tower, Night Murder, and Race Game that followed could also observe the arc of the earth. Only this place—
He looked at the extremely smooth sea. On such a clear day, he could see hundreds of kilometers away with his eyesight.
This place is flat.
This kind of copy world that violates physics and has a purely fantasy structure can only be confirmed once.
"A bloody disaster. The entire area outside the city was covered in blood mist. This dungeon is a nightmare second only to the bloodthirsty red moon."
"Why are you a little nervous?" The Warmaster glanced at him. He was not weaker than Epic II level, and this change in his emotions could still be detected.
"You think there are many challenges? The Hero Continent may seem calm, but undercurrents are surging."
Diaz moved his mouth, as if he knew it was useless to ask, so he could only nod silently, then shook his wrist and a lot of wine spilled out.
Are you murderous?
Anyone could see that the warlord was nervous. Yuki turned around in shock, wondering who was so bold as to dare to take action again. Then he saw an extremely beautiful blonde woman.
She is 70% similar to Hathaway, wearing a light blue long dress and an exaggerated figure, but with a bit more heroism and sharpness tempered by war.
"Dias, why did you promise me?"
Like a tigress pouncing on him, the war commander sobered up instantly and turned around with a pale face. However, none of the guards beside him drew their swords, but ran away as fast as they could as if they were afraid of getting blood splashed on themselves.
"Ma'am, please listen to my explanation. I only drank one glass, and the rest were drunk by Lord Crown."
"There's no point in saying more. I've been watching you for a long time!"
Like a tigress pouncing, there was a loud bang and the woman disappeared a hundred meters away and suddenly appeared in front of him. Yuki, who had just been inexplicably blamed, turned his head and saw the shadow of the tide rolling, and everything within a hundred meters was slowing down.
Within the tide, the epic supersonic power can be appreciated by ordinary people, and both sides of the battle have enough time to react.
"The rules of the Torch? No, it's more like some kind of energy that makes time sticky, so every movement is filled with resistance."
Yuki raised his hands to cover his face, feeling that time and space were like a quagmire, just like being on the turbulent seabed, except that that was resistance in the physical sense, and this was delay in the time sense.
There was a loud 'bang' as a white palm hit Zhan Shuai's chin, sending him flying off the ground. His eyes turned white, and the woman grabbed his ankle and dragged him back, twisting around and punching him in the lower abdomen.
boom--
The golden armor was flattened, and the warmaster rolled his eyes this time, and the sticky time returned to normal. The guards looked as if they were used to it. In their eyes, it was just a network delay.
The woman rushed over, and the War Marshal fell directly to the ground, then was grabbed by the feet and dragged away.
0.01 seconds.
Yuki looked at the time. This was the total duration of the battle, which was normal for an epic level, but in terms of visual effects, it looked more like two mortals fighting.
What a good thing! It's completely different from the rules set by the Divine Torch. If I had this thing, it would be easier to fight the hungry wolf.
He recalled the previous battle in the Kingdom of Heroes. The epic player was too fast, and in the hand-to-hand combat, some of the exquisite moves made him unable to react. However, learning these skills requires a lot of time.
The Torch of the Gods can also achieve a similar effect, but even if the usage requirements are ignored, only one rule can be established.
He would have to ask the user for more details, but of course he didn't dare to provoke this tigress.
"Excuse me, Lord Clown." The woman dragged the warmaster a few steps, and as if she thought of something, she came back and nodded to Yuki.
"Uh, oh." Yuki didn't know what expression to make except to nod stiffly. He just watched the war commander who was chatting and laughing with him and bragging about how awesome he was being dragged away like a dead pig.
There was silence all around until the black-haired young man asked without thinking.
"Is Mr. Crown married?"
None of my business.
Yuki turned half sideways and shook his head slightly, then saw several hands falling on his shoulders at the same time.
"Very good, very good."
......
The cocktail party came to an abrupt end, and the couple entered the headquarters. Only then did Eiffel leave her husband behind.
"Madam, I just want to drink some wine. Is it necessary to bless me with the blessing of the sea god?" The war commander shook his head. This blow was really heavy, but fortunately he was used to it.
