Zeus's grace is higher than the sky

"Didn't I order that our meeting should not be interrupted unless it was something important?"

Although the person who came in was a company member at the P46 level, and a big shot in the outside universe, he was just a pawn in front of everyone in the conference room.

"Tell me, what important information is it?" said the figure at the end of the conference table.

Chapter 56: The Magical Use of Traitors

"When Miss Topaz, one of the Stoneheart Ten, went to Beloberg to collect a debt, she recruited a group of former residents of Beloberg's Lower City. They claimed they would join the 'civilized world' faster than the Upper City residents and sent us information using a legacy encrypted communicator."

The sudden and unexpected information brought silence to the entire conference room.

"According to them, the Thunderbolt Arceus was able to launch that attack thanks to the Olympus Sacred Flame (Seed Flame). The entire Yalilo-VI only had two of those Olympus Sacred Flames, distributed to Cocolia, the Upper City representative, and Natasha, the Lower City representative. They were all consumed in the last battle. Although the Thunderbolt Arceus is being repaired, the progress is said to be very slow. The entire Yalilo-VI is now defenseless!"

With this information arriving at this moment, there is no doubt that the previous discussion immediately produced results.

"My lord, Zeus is no longer strong enough after the war with Schneider. I suggest launching a second war against Zeus immediately and destroying it along with Yalilo-VI. Without the protagonist of the turmoil, the storm will subside immediately."

The figure at the end of the conference table nodded. Combined with this information, doing so could indeed minimize the losses.

The two groups of people from the Xianzhou Alliance and the Black Tower are just taking advantage of this turmoil to bargain with the company. It has happened before, but this time the commotion is bigger. After the storm is over, things will be the same, but it will be uncomfortable for a while.

Everything will return to normal by then. This kind of thing has happened countless times in the past countless years.

Upon hearing this information, "Diamond" knew what strategy the figure at the end of the conference table would adopt.

"How can we determine the accuracy of this information?" Diamond made a final struggle.

"We've verified this with Miss Toppa, and even sent people disguised as the traitors to contact them privately. The information is reliable. Zeus only wiped out the nobles in the upper district at the time."

"In other words, the intelligence providers this time are the spineless and traitorous people in the downtown area."

"It seems that Zeus is nothing more than that, just a powerful muscle brain! Everyone, victory belongs to us, to the Interstellar Peace Company."

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, "Diamond" couldn't help but sigh.

"Muscle brain? Zeus, what are you thinking about?"

......

Yarilo-VI, Belobourg, Temple of Olympus.

Cocolia, leaning in Zeus' arms, picked up a strange fruit.

"Lord Zeus, come and taste this Memory Fruit from Pinocchio."

Then he put the fruit to his mouth, picked it up gently with his mouth and brought it to Zeus' mouth.

Ever since Zeus saved the entire Beloberg and defeated Schneider from the Interstellar Peace Company, Zeus in Cocolia's eyes is really no different from a god descending to earth. Now Cocolia is obedient to Zeus in everything. Except for her daughter Bronya and best friend Sylva, her heart is filled with the man in front of her.

As Cocolia slowly served the Yizhi fruit, Zeus not only tasted the unique Yizhi flavor from Pinocchio but also the sweet juice.

Natasha, who was standing next to them, blushed as she watched the interaction between Cocolia and Zeus. She wanted to join in but was too embarrassed to speak up. The sacrifice in the downtown area had exhausted all the courage Natasha had since she was born.

"Is it really all right? Won't the Interstellar Peace Corporation see through it?"

"How could that be? That person is the Interstellar Peace Company, the representative of the 'civilized world', who are truly loyal to it."

At that time, Zeus only cleared out the aristocratic forces in the upper district, but did not do much to clean up some of the unruly people in the lower district. Unexpectedly, it worked wonders at this time.

Before Zeus returned to Yalilo-VI from the Luofu Fairy Boat, Kokolia reported to him that someone was acting as a guide for the Interstellar Peace Company. Coincidentally, the plan had already been made at that time, and these people could be used. This was the last value that those useless guys could bring to the table.

......

"Masters of the Interstellar Peace Company, when will you come? When will you lead us out of the barbaric world of Yalilo-VI and into the civilized world?"

Ever since Zeus took over the entire Yalilo-VI, eliminated all the cracking creatures, and brought unprecedented prosperity, the income of Scott's underground boxing gym has plummeted.

After all, everyone has a good life, so who would come to the ring to risk their life for money? The noble lords who loved this kind of bloody and exciting competition before the blockade were all killed by Zeus. There was no one to participate in the competition and no audience willing to give rewards. Scott, who already had a bad reputation, was even less liked.

Scott blamed all the mistakes on Zeus. In his opinion, it was the barbaric Zeus who killed the civilized nobles and made Yarilo-VI return to the barbaric and uncivilized era, which made his life so miserable. It would be great if everything could go back to the past.

Suddenly Scott's phone rang.

"Hello, sir, I'm Scott... That's great! The Belobergs have been waiting for you to lead us back to the civilized world. We are all looking forward to seeing you. Please, you must overthrow that barbaric and licentious tyrant!"

Chapter 57: Lightspeed Free

After the meeting in Pierpoint, the seven-member board of directors issued a new announcement in the name of the Interstellar Peace Company.

"An investigation by the Interstellar Peace Company revealed that Zeus, the remnant of the Zeus family, violated universal law by using coercion, deception, and robbery to forcibly seize Yarilo-VI and the Interstellar Peace Company's property a few months ago. After negotiations, Zeus refused to return the company's property and maliciously defaulted on the debt. Our alternate director, Osvaldo Schneider, was maliciously injured and killed by Zeus during the debt collection process. The Interstellar Peace Company now officially declares war on Yarilo-VI!"

Looking at the latest announcement from the Interstellar Peace Company, Zeus' plan has entered the second stage.

Zeus then declared war on the Interstellar Peace Company.

"At the behest of the seven-member board of directors, Interstellar Peace Corporation's alternate director, Oswaldo Schneider, assembled a fleet to illegally invade Yarilo-VI's territory and launched a malicious attack. Afterwards, the responsible individuals at Interstellar Peace Corporation showed no remorse and even maliciously slandered our hero, Zeus. Yarilo-VI hereby officially declares war on Interstellar Peace Corporation!"

As soon as the two declarations of war were issued, the entire universe was in an uproar. It had only been a few days since Osvaldo Schneider openly attacked Yarilo-VI, but before one wave of storms had subsided, another, even bigger wave of storms had arrived.

All of a sudden, Interstellar Peace Corporation stopped falling, and most of its subsidiaries that had been jumping around in jubilation also restrained their behavior. Only some subsidiaries that were dissatisfied with the status quo and sought change intensified their public support for Zeus, who led Yarilo-VI.

For those speculators, this battle is of great importance. If they win, their names will resound throughout the world, and they will become a major force in the universe from then on; if they fail, their years of foundation will be destroyed, and they will be liquidated by the Interstellar Peace Company afterwards.

A few days later, the joint fleet composed of the seven-member board of directors once again arrived at the star field near Yarilo-VI, which once deposed Osvaldo Schneider.

"Come on everyone, let's put an end to this farce."

With the power system and outer shell armor of the Thunderbolt Zeus repaired under Zeus' deliberate concealment, it flew into space again, and the second round of confrontation between the Interstellar Peace Company and Zeus officially began.

Compared with Oswaldo Schneider's fleet, although not all of its assets were invested in this war, the joint fleet of the seven-member board of directors was still much stronger. In addition to six flagships, it had a total of twenty-four main battleships, and these thirty warships could also launch coordinated attacks.

Although the combat effectiveness of a single ship is similar to that of Oswaldo Schneider's battleships, the joint attack launched by thirty battleships is far superior to Oswaldo Schneider's simple accumulation of power.

Everyone thought this confrontation would be more intense than the last one, but contrary to everyone's expectations, the farce ended very quickly.

What makes people most excited about the so-called mecha is not only its steel shell and technologically advanced body, but also the second stage transformation triggered at the critical moment and the final hidden trick.

[Thunderbolt Arceus] A hint of darkness emerged from the depths of the energy core that was originally surrounded by thunder, swallowing up the endless lightning. As the darkness continued to spread and eventually covered the entire body, the limbs that were originally close to human form turned into sharp claws like beasts, and the lightning containing light and heat turned into a constant blowing gale.

If the [Thunder Arceus] at the beginning represented the majesty of God, and its powerful attack was like God's punishment, then the black mecha now undoubtedly represents the savagery of beasts, and the strong wind blowing it is like a bloodthirsty roar.

All of a sudden, all the members of the seven-member board of directors felt a chill running from their heels to the top of their heads.

"It's just a bluff! According to intelligence, his [Thunderbolt Arceus] is already in tatters, and its energy source, the [Olympus Sacred Flame (Sub-Fire)], was completely consumed in the last battle with Schneider!"

"That's right, attack! Attack! Don't be intimidated by his pretentious attitude."

Sometimes, when facing a powerful enemy, if you blindly use force to fight, you will only be crushed by the more powerful force. Changing methods at the right time can lead to victory, such as cutting off the enemy's energy source.

This new form was named after Zeus' former enemy and current beloved wife----[Typhon, the Star of Disaster].

In ancient Greece, people were extremely afraid of storms. For this country close to the ocean, encountering a storm at sea meant losing direction and being cut off from all communication. The storm god Typhon, who was derived from this, embodied the tyrannical nature of the storm.

"Chaos that devoured the heavens and earth and brought the gods to their knees!"

"I now bring down upon you the end in my name!"

"Awake! The endless storm sleeping within my body!"

"The kingship of the gods and the wishes of mankind are all cut off before my hurricane!"

"【Final Storm: Ragnarok】!"

As a kind of "storm" blew out from the body of "The Star of Disaster Ti Feng", the seven board members of the six flagships of the Interstellar Peace Company's joint fleet were horrified to find that their fleet was unable to mobilize any destiny power, including the power of protection that the Interstellar Peace Company was most proud of.

The invincible fleet forged with the power of preservation was instantly transformed from a strong man into a shriveled old man in front of the existence that could silently preserve the power. The strength of the entire fleet was reduced to one hundredth of what it was. Without the blessing of the power of preservation, these warships were no different from scrap metal in the eyes of the real envoy.

Just like Schneider's fate a few days ago, several thunderbolts pierced their flagship, but this time, because even the protective power was silenced, they couldn't even escape as miserably as Schneider.

This war, which was originally thought to be shocking, ended so simply and absurdly.

The super giant Interstellar Peace Corporation, which has dominated the universe for countless years, officially suffered defeat today.

People in the universe who had recovered from the war in the video were frantically selling off their shares in the Interstellar Peace Company and shorting the company's stock price. Under heavy pressure, the ambitious companies that supported Yarilo-VI led by Zeus saw their stock prices soar overnight. Even the families that had always been neutral stood up and distanced themselves from the Interstellar Peace Company.

......

Meanwhile, deep inside the Interstellar Peace Corporation headquarters on Pierpoint.

"Old friend, it seems that you made the wrong decision this time."

"Tsk, I'm screwed this time."

"Forget it, let's think about how to deal with this matter."

"What else can we do? We have to do it ourselves!"

"It's been so many years. I thought I wouldn't have to do anything for the rest of my life."

Chapter 58: The Eve of the Decisive Battle

(I later posted a picture of Typhon at the end of the previous chapter, using the Fruit Dragon from FGO)

The rise of new forces always requires the old forces to establish their authority.

In Zeus's view, simply shooting down the flagship of the Council of Seven in a war was far from enough. For the lower-class people who made up the absolute majority of the world, the only happiness comparable to their own profits was watching their masters being sent to the execution platform.

On the second day after the war, Zeus, in his own name, collected information from people all over the universe about the bad things that the Interstellar Peace Company had done in the past. Although everyone knew that the downfall of the Interstellar Peace Company had nothing to do with the bad things they had done, it was simply because they had set their sights on Zeus, but were killed by Zeus because they were not strong enough.

During this period, "Diamond" also contacted Zeus. He initially thought that Zeus wanted to cooperate with him to win at least one seat on the seven-member board of directors in order to gain benefits. However, since Zeus deliberately allowed the traitor on Yalilo-VI to pass on information to the Interstellar Peace Company, the matter was out of the control of "Diamond".

This is no longer about trying to profit from the seats on the seven-member board of directors, but about wanting to directly replace the Interstellar Peace Company.

"Zeus, what are you trying to do? You think killing these directors will bring down the Interstellar Peace Company? I'm telling you, that's impossible. As long as those two are still around, the Interstellar Peace Company won't fall! Stop now, and the Interstellar Peace Company will give you satisfactory compensation!"

The "Diamond" who was always unhurried, elegant and noble was completely defeated at this moment, and the "Ten Stone Hearts" behind him were also running around in panic.

"This is an unimaginable gamble, boss." Kakavasya's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and the gold coins in his hand were cracked by his pinch.

Ms. Ci Yu, who had been calm and composed at "Jade Pawnshop", dropped the red apple in her hand when she heard the news that Zeus was going to hold a public trial of the seven-member board of directors.

Zeus certainly knew what terrible consequences would result from killing these six people now - the universe would immediately fall into chaos.

Countless ambitious people will continue to emerge like mushrooms after rain, and the flames of war will burn the entire universe. There will be no peace for at least several Amber Ages. Countless people will be displaced, and countless families will be broken apart. Everyone wants to take the opportunity to lie on the Interstellar Peace Company, which seems to be on the verge of collapse, and take a last sip.

Even if Louis Fleming and Dongfang Qixing finally came forward to restore the country, the losses caused during the process were incalculable.

So Zeus actually didn't want to kill them. It would be such a waste. They were all very capable people. If his plan was successfully implemented in the future, the Interstellar Peace Company would be his property and would still need someone to take care of it. It would also be a pleasure to see his former enemies bowing down to serve him.

......

The board of directors of the Interstellar Peace Corporation's headquarters, Pier Point, held a meeting. The conference room that was previously full of people now only had three people left.

"'Diamond', you are in cahoots with that Zeus, right?"

Diamond shuddered with fear. Normally, he would have calmly analyzed the pros and cons and tried to read useful information from the two most powerful men in the universe. But now, because of what Zeus had done, his state of mind was completely shattered, and he was no longer as indifferent as before. He was like a frightened bird, afraid that the two would come after him.

"Sir, I initially just wanted to seize a seat on the seven-member board of directors. I really didn't expect things to develop like this."

"Of course we know, otherwise you wouldn't still be standing here intact."

"Your Excellency is aware of everything."

After Diamond said this, the scene fell into silence for a while.

One of them sighed and said, "Right now, everyone in the company is discussing how Taizyuros, the Star God of Breeding, was besieged and strangled by the Star Gods, as if Yalilo-VI is a grave threat to the company. Countless Amber Ages ago, we followed the faith of the Amber King and founded the company. The universe was then unified, and wherever the Interstellar Peace Company went, the people welcomed us wholeheartedly. We truly had the best of time, place, and people. We can still remember that vibrant and flourishing world. But in just a few months, our vast foundation is about to be destroyed. Now I can see that Zeus is unfathomable and his strength is no less than ours. But no matter what, it's two against one, and the advantage is mine!"

Although the analysis of the adult in front of him was very reasonable, and apart from the Star God, the two of them were indeed the top echelon in the universe, and two against one did have an advantage, but for some reason, after hearing the adult's sigh, he had an ominous premonition in his heart, as if he saw an old general on the stage with flags behind him.

......

Zeus's unexpected victory shocked everyone in the universe, but only the real big forces that had a direct connection with the Star God, such as the Xianzhou Alliance, the Family, the Antimatter Legion, the Genius Club... knew about it. The curtain of the final decisive battle was slowly opening. As for how to deal with the seven-member board of directors afterwards, it was just a trivial matter.

The family, the antimatter legion and other forces naturally hope that Zeus will be defeated and then the members of the seven-member board of directors will be executed by the angry people close to Zeus, so that the entire universe will fall into chaos so that they can take advantage of the opportunity to profit, the family can absorb more members, and the antimatter legion can take the opportunity to start a war.

The Xianzhou Alliance, the four geniuses headed by Heita, and others hope that Zeus's plan will succeed, so that the benefits they will get will be beyond imagination.

......

At this time, Yarilo-VI was inside the Temple of Olympus.

Compared with his previous handsome young image, Zeus this time rarely used the mature and majestic appearance he had when he first came to this universe. Cocolia and Natasha came to Zeus and gave him a kiss full of blessings, and then stared at Zeus without saying a word with eyes full of love and admiration.

After a while, Zeus stood up and walked out of the temple and came to the square. The iron guards led by Jeppard maintained order at the scene.

The Beloberg people, who got the news from nowhere, were filled with panic and anxiety, and hoped that Zeus could tell them what was going on. In just a few months, Yalilo-VI jumped from a backward planet blockaded by the core of a star to a battle with the super giant of the universe. No one could accept such a huge change.

The people on Yalilo-VI, who have little knowledge, don't know what the Messenger is, but they know the Amber King. It is said that the next opponent will be the Amber King's spokesperson on earth. Having given up their faith in the Amber King, they naturally feel extremely scared, fearing the divine punishment from the spokesperson.
