Origin Paradise!

Si Ning's expression was complicated, and she chuckled softly, "Was it intentional or accidental?"

"Is there a difference?" Jiang He's expression was calm. Strike back at the enemy and intimidate allies; this is the basic code of conduct for players. If the other party doesn't intend to leave after the transaction is over, then a hierarchy must be established. There is no room for compromise on the battlefield.

Si Ning fell into deep thought.

The main quest involves conquering territory to gain experience points, which is indeed tempting, but she is already at LV36. Even if she completes all of them, she will only level up a few times.

Cooperating with super life forms whose combat power is significantly higher than that of the major powers actually yields the biggest benefits to the opposing players.

The problem is that the collaborator is clearly not someone whose relationship can be controlled. You can't compete with the other party for the spoils. So, if you want to get the expected harvest, you have to exchange other benefits.

Si Ning frowned slightly, considering the possibility that the other party might think she was too fat and thus exploit or squeeze out all her value. Compared to their previous encounter in the world of remnants, the balance of power between the two sides had changed.

"I've only just realized that we're actually just drinking buddies."

Jiang He nodded upon hearing this, "Otherwise what?"

He couldn't be said to have little interest in the appearance of his allies, because he had none at all. As the emperor, he had already satisfied his desires in this regard by selecting beauties from all over the world.

Si Ning took out a free teleportation item card. The card had a sinister and eerie atmosphere, with countless ghosts rushing forward, seemingly trying to break free from the card's restraints.

“I remember we talked about how the New Las Vegas is a ship full of resentment. One of my biggest businesses in the present world is supplying vengeful spirits to the Hidden House.”

Jiang He lowered her eyes. The number 103,000 was clearly marked in the lower right corner of the card. This meant that the number of invitees who died on the New Las Vegas had reached an alarming level. After all, the ship was in the present world, not in other real worlds where players could act with impunity.

Si Ning said, "Since the resurgence of the extraordinary in the present realm, the Bureau of Order has been secretly purging criminals in prisons across the country."

"Because the rules by which the origins grant players their identities are unpredictable, the probability of these criminals secretly obtaining player status having a positive outcome in the long run is very low. So I'm the one who does the dirty work, and of course, the kickbacks are very high."

Jiang He was not surprised by this. Theoretically speaking, most criminals are people who disrupt the old order. Such potential factors make them inherently stand on the opposite side of the order. When it is still possible to maintain control, eliminating them at the root is obviously no longer the primary factor to consider in the face of the overall situation.

Si Ning chuckled and said, "I come from a branch of the Si family, and by chance, I gained the approval of the new Las Vegas. The Buddhist and Taoist Committee and the Order Bureau have close cooperation, so this lucrative position naturally fell to me."

"Throughout history, the fate of someone like me has been the same: basically, the birds are gone and the bow is put away. It's like sentencing all criminals to death regardless of the severity of their crimes. Such a scandal will not be given the chance to be exposed in the open by Great Xia."

Jiang He pondered for a moment and commented, "Execution may be beneficial to the overall situation, but it is not acceptable to all players in the Order Bureau. When you are about to be promoted to hero and about to break free from control, that will be the day you die."

Legendary beings exist in the present world, but according to Lilith, once they reach the legendary level, they must constantly contend with the authority that arises from the qualitative transformation of the mythological form. Due to the influence of the authority, people tend to gravitate towards the mythological form that has been created. In order to prevent themselves from becoming "sculptures" that have lost their true selves, legendary beings often use the method of sleeping to alleviate this until a relatively small number of successful individuals are born with divinity.

Therefore, in a world where legends are indifferent to worldly affairs, the Gold Peak is roughly the limit that a faction can tolerate.

Si Ning said nonchalantly, "So what? We can't stop evolving our life level just because we might die. We'll talk about tomorrow's problems tomorrow."

"My Legion of Wraiths has a high resistance to damage from firearms and is extremely sensitive to strong flesh, which is very useful whether it is for assaulting enemy positions or monitoring enemy players who have infiltrated from within."

Jiang He nodded: "I'll handle external affairs, you handle internal affairs."

The main mission requires you to capture territory, and ensuring that the captured territory is not taken back is also a key aspect of the mission.

The player possesses exceptional mobility and infiltration abilities; he is indifferent to any direct combat, but currently lacks a suitable second-in-command to handle sabotage behind enemy lines.

Si Ning narrowed her peach blossom eyes and said, "Occupying territory will earn you a lot of experience points, and all of that profit will be yours. I can't work for you for free, can I?"

"A perfect sword technique tailor-made for you."

"make a deal."

Based on their good reputation from multiple transactions, the two parties have reached a preliminary agreement on forming an alliance.

Just then, a petite maid brought over dragon blood wine and cocktails. Zhuang Ya scrutinized the guest with a rather serious expression; the other person, like her, was a swordsman.

Jiang He took the wine and said softly, "Use your Elephant Poison Sword for now. Once you advance to Gold rank, I'll upgrade it for you. She has something I need."

Regarding the question of who owns the Supreme Uneven Sword, Zhuang Ya simply shook her head, completely unconcerned. She knew that her greatest use to someone was her demon race talent, Rejuvenation. Since evolving to the peak of Silver, the level of Rejuvenation had risen to the perfect level, and it could still be effective against the Great Serpent.

"What a pretty little girl." Si Ning sipped her lemon cocktail, her eyes filled with appreciation for a work of art. Petite and thin, cute and innocent, loyal and obedient, she was simply the perfect choice for a maid.

"Hello," Zhuang Ya greeted politely, her face expressionless.

"Of course I'm ready."

A wicked smile appeared on Si Ning's face as she turned back to examine the person with interest. Perhaps the other person was outwardly respectable but inwardly lewd, which was why he had chosen to keep such a little maid by his side.

"Is this your childhood sweetheart?"

Jiang He calmly said, "If you're tired of living, you can just tell me."

Unable to kill him in three moves, this overlord committed suicide on the spot.

Si Ning rolled her eyes upon hearing this, while silently increasing her attention to the little girl. She was probably someone's "right-hand man," just like the crow and the big black dog.

Drink up a glass of wine.

Jiang He quietly activated his divine mind, and with the foundation of a million martial arts techniques, combined with the skill level of an alchemy master, he began to integrate a brand new Qi cultivation martial arts.

Not entirely dependent on the origin, the results of comprehending and accumulating the power system have become apparent, and the massive investment of the past has paid off. A few hours later, a supreme-level Daoist military technique was born. As for the higher level of immortality, the effort and energy required are too heavy, and he cannot spare several days of seclusion for the time being.

The first part of the Supreme Daoist Art of War is completely modeled after the Rubik's Cube puppet technology, where one evil soldier is cast for every ten kilograms of gold and a complete corpse. However, Jiang He has incorporated the gold and silver conversion secret technique of the Great Zhou Dynasty, where every hundred kilograms of silver can be converted into ten kilograms of gold.

It is worth mentioning that the proven reserves of silver in the world are also ten times that of gold.

The Middle Chapter of the Supreme Dao Military Strategy uses the current A-Da, A-Er, and A-San as templates, and ordinary beings of the Silver Age with combat power as the standard. Their Silver bodies and skeletons serve as support, while the Blood Fiends of the ten thousand elite warriors act as flesh and blood. Each Silver Guard represents the fall of a true Silver.

The second part of the Supreme Art of War: The Silver General's combat power is comparable to that of a normal Silver peak, and the skeletons of multiple Silver bodies will be forged into perfect artifacts by the Gluttonous Lord.

Since the evil demon soldiers lack willpower and are essentially more like mindless tools, the future golden realm is out of the question, and their innate limits are locked.

Jiang He then issued several orders to Shuguang.

"First, from this moment on, all factories in the Ninth Fortress will be converted to military production, producing firearms, ammunition, and tanks indefinitely, with 50% of the production capacity allocated to artillery shells, up to ten million shells."

"Second, led by Si Ning, immediately begin interrogating members of the royal branch. Military mecha technology must be put into production within a week. She is permitted to use the Abyss Logic Disease on the target. Security within the fortress will be entirely the responsibility of the Wraith Legion."

"Third, tonight I will mark all the gold and silver mines in the Ninth Fortress area, and Wuhe will be responsible for organizing the mining. All finished ore will be gathered on the Saint Lilith, and all prisoners in the fortress will be executed and their corpses transported up."

"Fourth, Old Black will be stationed on the St. Lilith, with Aya as his assistant. He can fire on any suspicious target in advance without reporting to me."

As orders were issued, Sugon Intelligence unconditionally obeyed the highest directives.

Si Ning received the task with a mix of amusement and exasperation; the assignment was so swift that it caught everyone off guard.

Jiang He got up and went to the deck of the void warship. The dark clouds seemed to be within reach, and the ground buildings looked like blurry black dots.

The wind howled all around, and several birds and wild beasts flew by in the distance. Given the enormous size of the Saint Lilith, this warship was naturally outside the hunting range of the wild beasts.

Jiang He clasped his hands together, and the Black Sun Domain unfolded.

Two skeletal giants, each a hundred meters tall, appeared from the Imperial City. All the silver skeletons they had collected during the Battle for Survival were here. Including the loot they had just found on the street, the total number of skeletons they had pieced together was 1,300.

boom!

The two skeletal giant kings collapsed, leaving the ground covered in silvery-white bones. The domain released the power of the Gluttonous Lord, and black light engulfed all the bones.

Three hundred skeletons were fused into three perfect-grade items that were almost at the top level in their respective categories.

A thousand silver guards, resembling skeletons, stood in formation, silently awaiting the integration of suitable evil soldiers and the bestowal of flesh and blood by the blood and qi of the military formation.

[Name: Silver Carrier]

[Category: Functional]

[Quality: Perfect]

[Effect ①: Ultimate Durability]

[Effect ②: Maximum Strength/Maximum Speed/Maximum Constitution]

[Effect 3: Silver Corpse Mountain - Increases all attributes by 30%]

[Note: For use with Soulless Puppets/Produced by Gluttony]

"Ah Da, Ah Er, Ah San, the three of you come to the deck."

"clear."

The three received the order and rushed over without stopping. Upon arrival, they followed their leader's instructions and entered the Black Sun Domain.

Jiang He watched as the three merged with the silver vessel. Strictly speaking, the silver Dao soldier was not a living being, but it also belonged to the category of Gluttony that could undergo extraordinary integration.

After a while, the domain dissipated.

Ah Da wiggled his muscles and bones, a simple and honest smile on his face. The new power made him feel somewhat unfamiliar, and the aura of the peak Silver level was fully revealed.

Ah Er couldn't control his violent temper and looked like he wanted to devour someone, but after glancing at his boss, he immediately calmed down. When it came to being tyrannical and ruthless, his boss was the real expert, and he could only barely get a chance to take his shoes because of their relationship as ruler and subject.

Ah San, on the other hand, remained as elegant as ever. Unable to control his sudden surge of power, he chose to lie down and rest.

"The three of you will go down and take command of the evil legion, and seize all the gold and silver in the fortress."

"clear."

Jiang He spread his blood wings and soared into the sky. His Divine Hunting Eye and All-Seeing Eye surveyed the land. The moment he discovered the gold and silver mine, he uploaded the coordinates to the dawn. Although the most basic evil soldiers had low combat power, they were the cornerstone of the evil legion.

……

One day passed.

Jiang He flew all over the Ninth Fortress area.

[Note: Currently, it occupies 8% of the entire alliance's land area]

As Origin sounded its notification, Dawn reported two messages.

First, after receiving the Prism Core of the Undying Saint Lilith, Dawn's already excellent hardware computing power was greatly enhanced, which was now sufficient to compile and command around 100,000 Dawn people.

Secondly, the Eighth Fortress in the eastern part of the alliance dispatched several main regiments to attack the Upside-Down Pass. The soldiers under its command were all monsters with human bodies and ant heads. The Second Legion stationed there requested support.

"The entire Ninth Fortress area is mountainous, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. From a strategic point of view, the Inverted Pass, located in the lower left corner of the fortress, is the only gateway in and out, and it cannot be lost."

"This year's rotation should be the Second Legion, commanded by Aqi, with 200,000 troops, including a sufficient number of Evil Fiends and Dawn People."

Jiang He suppressed her thoughts and changed direction, heading towards the Upside-Down Pass.

The attacks by several main regiments may just be a probe. The situation at the Eighth Fortress is completely unclear. If the enemy has completed its internal integration, then this may be a large-scale blitzkrieg.

Launching a war in the early stages of the game makes it easy to crush other disorganized fortress players. Six years later, the Ninth Fortress has a sufficient population and industrial base, making it a must-contend location.

Flying at high speed, the upside-down scenery came into view.

This pass is situated on a huge gap in the mountains, with the vassal city of the Ninth Fortress behind it, which is home to three million people and serves as a logistical base.

Twenty full divisions were stationed here, with two thousand artillery pieces alone, and the barracks relied on each other.

In front of the pass lies an endless plain, which would be an enviable arable land in peacetime, but the presence of wild beasts makes it a burden.

As Jiang He fell from the sky, he clearly saw the dense black tide emerging at the end of the plain. Hundreds of thousands of humanoid ants were advancing, some armed with guns and others unarmed.

Biosphere colony: Human ants.

"It's not a good thing."

Chapter 370 The Great Powers Mobilize

Somewhere underground, covered by a black tide of human ants.

This is the command center of the Ant-Human Guild, the battlefield of all living beings.

A jet-black battle flag stood in the corner. As a strategic item for the guild, this supreme-grade battle flag could block spying and divination, and conceal the location of the command post.

In the empty underground space, a special long table, several tens of meters long, was placed in the middle, with hundreds of guild members sitting on either side.

The vice president reported to all members: "The gene infection plan has been completed before the expedition. All eleven million residents of the Eighth Fortress have been infected and degenerated into human ants. The efforts the guild made during the last invasion were not in vain. Currently, the first priority target is the interior of the Ninth Fortress, which is home to twenty million people. The war has entered the preparation stage."

The players were all full of confidence. When they descended last time, the guild leader suppressed everyone's impatience with his absolute leadership. He had been plotting for a whole year and secretly polluted dozens of water sources in the fortress.

Once the battle officially began, overnight, millions of people degenerated into mindless ant-like monsters, becoming cannon fodder for the guilds' sieges.

The other players in the Eighth Fortress had no choice but to flee. After all, the Ant Guild not only had millions of cannon fodder, but also a Silver-level Ant King Guild Leader. As the strongest adventure group in the Silver stage of the Battlefield of All Beings, the Ant Guild had always cooperated frequently with the Dinosaur Club.

At the head of the long table, the guild leader, renowned for his unparalleled strength and defense among the Silver rank, suddenly spoke.

"I received a message from the Dinosaur Tyrant. Nearly 500 players in the Ninth Fortress have been wiped out in less than two hours. If nothing unexpected happens, the other side should also have a powerful life form. Before the opponent's condition drops drastically, the guild's main force should not show up. What we want is final victory, not just petty grudges."

The Ant King's caution was so extreme that it seemed completely out of place with the strength of his own faction, but the guild members were already used to it.

"How long will it take to take down the Upside-Down Pass?" the Ant King asked.

The vice president looked at the head of the strategy team, who gave the answer: "At the latest tomorrow morning, at the earliest two hours."

The Ant King nodded, concluding, "Then let's go all out and conquer the Inverted Pass. There will be no defenses on the road to the Ninth Fortress. Don't worry about casualties; we still have 20 million cannon fodder waiting for us."

"Understood," the group replied.

……

January 3th, the sixth year of the Kaiyuan era.
