Evolution game, nothing more than that!

Obviously, she and Emilia were both players, but because the other was an elder of the vampire clan in the real world, with extraordinary strength and power, while she herself was originally just an ordinary vampire, and only gained some power after entering the evolution game, the status of the two was very different.

The other party can rule over his clan from a high position, and the power he secretly controls is enough to influence most of the Western world. However, she can only act as a black glove, performing all kinds of dirty work for the other party. If the mission fails or something goes wrong, she will be reprimanded.

A strong sense of unwillingness surged in her heart. She was unwilling to be a small person forever and have to rely on others forever.

But she quickly suppressed the resentment in her heart.

After all, everything about her was now firmly controlled by Emilia, whether it was this magnificent castle, the selection and planning of her bloodline skills, or even the Horcrux skill of resurrection, which was something that no one wanted to give to her - even her life-saving trump card was given by others, so naturally she had no confidence to resist.

"But this won't last long! The God has responded to me, and I have a chance..."

She muttered to herself, and through the open collar on her chest, a line like a leaping flame flashed across her fair skin.

If Emilia saw it, she would recognize it as the emblem of the Lord of Change, the God of Magic.

He is not a god that originally existed in the real world, but a god that Emilia came into contact with and eventually believed in in the mission world of the evolution game.

The previous failed human cleansing plan was a ritual planned by the vampire elder to summon the god to bestow his blessings.

If the plan can be successfully executed, Emilia, as the mastermind behind all this conspiracy, will receive immense blessings, and may even be promoted (become a demon) to become a great messenger of God (great demon) on the spot!

For this goal, it doesn't matter even if the implementation of the plan will greatly damage the interests of the vampire clan among humans - if you can become an immortal messenger of God (a great devil) who can be resurrected in the kingdom of God even if killed, who would want to be a vampire who can't even see the sun!

Unfortunately, the conspiracy was exposed, the plan was shattered, and Emilia's journey to becoming a demon was interrupted before it even began.

As a pawn under Emilia, Shyvana naturally also believes in the Lord of Change.

However, no matter how much she prayed in the past, she could never get a response from this god, as if this god did not exist at all.

Originally, Shyvana had given up hope, but unexpectedly, when she was killed by Yi Shen and had to rely on the Horcrux to revive, she felt the will of the Lord of Change in the gap between life and death.

He did not seem to feel any dissatisfaction with the failure of the sacrifice plan. Instead, he vaguely revealed approval and joy.

Although no words were conveyed to her, the joyful will was transmitted to her heart, as if it was shouting "well done" to her.

Inexplicably, Shyvana realized something - God did not care whether the grand sacrifice succeeded or failed. If it succeeded, He would be happy and would bless the conspirators. If it failed, He would not punish them.

Change, and only change, is what the God of Change truly cares about and pursues.

Although Shyvana's plan failed, this failure itself is also a kind of change. The God of Change is also happy about it and is willing to pay more attention to this believer.

"Yes, yes, conspiracy isn't all God has; change is! Emilia, you've already strayed from the right path by blindly immersing yourself in conspiracy and intrigue. Only I, only I, truly comprehend God's will!"

The flame of ambition burned in Shyvana's eyes.

Chapter 159: The Stupid Way, Ending

Yi Shen and his friends didn't know that in the distant other side of time and space, a terrifying evil god had quietly set his sights on this world.

But they knew that behind Valentine and even the undead banshee, there were other masterminds who were plotting all this.

To this end, Yamasaki An decisively suppressed her disgust for sucking the blood of scumbags, and while the three Kingsman agents were away, she took off her helmet and sucked the blood of Valentine, who had just died, trying to get some information from his memory.

Unfortunately, after browsing this guy's memory, Yamasaki An discovered that the other party had no idea the true identity of the Undead Banshee. He only thought that the other party was a loyal subordinate to him, not to mention the mastermind behind the Undead Banshee. He knew nothing at all.

In short, this is a fool who was kept in the dark but thought he was in control of everything.

"The clues stop here. It will be difficult to continue the investigation!"

Yamasaki An said so.

"It seems the mastermind behind this has hidden himself very well, cutting off the possibility of tracking him down from the very beginning."

Yi Shen frowned slightly. Although he was a little depressed, he was not too surprised.

After all, he was the mastermind who could quietly induce Valentine to carry out such a big conspiracy, and being able to do this is a basic quality.

"But it doesn't mean we are helpless."

He said so.

"Do you have any idea?"

Sakurajima Mai asked from the side.

"It's just a stupid idea."

Yi Shen nodded:

"Since this mastermind wants to destroy all of humanity, he or she will surely not just attempt this once. Any action taken by them will inevitably leave traces on the world. So from now on, I will have Sybil monitor all communications and network information worldwide. Any unusual activity will be immediately detected by us, and if they take further action, they will definitely not be able to escape!"

"...Big data monitoring? It's a stupid idea, but we don't seem to have any better options."

Mai Sakurajima nodded and commented.

As for whether Sybil, the AI, could do such a thing, she had no doubt about it.

After all, this is a super AI produced by the Evolution Game. In terms of computing power, it far exceeds any supercomputer in the real world. It even has advanced intelligent algorithms that can understand human language and thinking. Monitoring communications and networks around the world is not a piece of cake, but it is indeed not a difficult task.

……

Yi Shen was ready to deal with the next move of the mastermind behind the scenes, while on Kingsman's side, Eggsy was facing questioning from his two superiors.

"So, what exactly does 'gamer' mean?"

Galahad asked.

"..."

Eggsy looked at the guide who had led him down the path of becoming an agent, then looked at Merlin, sighed, and finally decided to tell him everything:

"The so-called players actually refer to those who participate in the 'evolution game'..."

He told them everything about how he was chosen by the evolution game, how he passed the rookie trial, how he obtained his first extraordinary power, and so on.

Galahad and Merlin expressed disbelief when they heard that Eggsy was taken to another world by some great being without their knowledge, went through various trials and battles, and finally returned to reality with power.

But the Evil Breaking Slash and Holy Shield that Eggsy had used before were real, which made them have to believe it.

"So there are such things in this world...Does God really exist?"

Merlin muttered to himself, his worldview reshaped.

"Well, I don't know if the being behind the Evolution Game is a god, a demon, or some kind of alien with super-technological abilities. But no matter what it is, it's definitely a being far superior to humans."

Eggsy replied.

"Okay, now we know what a player is. So, besides you, the woman from before, and those three mysterious people, are all players like you?"

Galahad asked.

"That should be the case. But if you say they're the same as me... I have to say, not mentioning that undead girl, any one of the other three is much stronger than me!"

Eggsy said this, implicitly reminding Galahad to try not to provoke those three people.

Judging from the previous series of actions, although the other party also came with the purpose of stopping Valentine and can be regarded as friendly forces in a sense, their actions were very decisive and ruthless. If we provoke them, the other party will probably not hold back.

Of course, Eggsy didn't need to worry. Galahad was such a steady person that he would never rashly provoke the other party at such a time.

What he was actually thinking was, since Eggsy wasn't the only player, were there other players in the UK?

What are their identities? What important positions do they hold? And will they, like the undead woman, attempt to do something bad to the country, or even the world?

When we get back, we must investigate this matter!

Of course, before that, they still have to solve one last thing - that is to rescue the politicians from various countries who were imprisoned because they were unwilling to cooperate with Valentine.

Yes, if Galahad hadn't reminded him, Eggsy would probably have forgotten about it.

When they entered the base, they passed through a corridor with prison-like iron doors on both sides. Those were actually the rooms used to detain these dignitaries.

However, due to the presence of Yi Shen and the others, Eggsy and the others were a little embarrassed when they escaped at the beginning, but they were able to make smooth progress afterwards - or rather, they watched others make smooth progress. Therefore, the situation in the original plot where Eggsy was blocked by soldiers in front of the prison door of the Swedish princess and the latter asked for rescue and was willing to let him use a backdoor in exchange did not happen.

It was not until the dust settled and Kingsman was about to leave that he remembered the existence of these people and rescued them from the cells one by one.

Here, the hot and open-minded Swedish princess is just one of the rescued people, and there is no chance for her to spark love with Eggsy.

The group was crammed into a small passenger plane and sat crowded in the small cabin.

Although the environment was not very comfortable, these politicians who had experienced imprisonment were not picky and were quietly waiting for the moment to return to the civilized world.

Before taking off, Eggsy wanted to say hello and goodbye to Yi Shen and the others - not that the relationship between the two sides was very good, but the other side was the strong one and he was the weak one. What if he didn't observe etiquette and angered the other side?

But then he saw through the porthole of the cockpit that the other party had appeared beside the runway at some point and was looking at them quietly.

Eggsy waved awkwardly, but received no response.

Of course, no response is also a response. At least the other party should not get angry because you leave without saying goodbye.

As the engines started, the plane began to taxi on the runway, accelerating faster and faster.

Soon, the plane reached take-off speed, and at the same time, it just happened to get out of the cave and jumped out from the end of the runway.

Under Merlin's control, the nose of the plane lifted and the plane began to climb slowly.

But then a thunderous explosion came from the side of the plane. The three people in the cockpit turned their heads and saw three figures flashing in the air, dragging a cone-shaped cloud formed by heavy shock waves into the sky and disappearing into the dust.

The Kingsman agents then understood how the three men had gotten to this base – they had actually flown here in the flesh!

“It’s just like Superman!”

Eggsy couldn't help but sigh, feeling extremely envious.

One day, he will also obtain such powerful strength!

Chapter 160: Strength Bottleneck, Analysis of the Road Ahead

[…Regarding the latest developments in the killer chip incident, government spokespersons from multiple countries have issued strong condemnations and completely banned all Valentine Company activities within their respective territories. At the same time, telecommunications companies in various countries have also launched chip replacement activities, planning to fully recall these killer chips within a month to eliminate the hidden danger…]

Watching the news on TV, Yi Shen nodded, expressing satisfaction with Kingsman's speed of action.

In this way, the crisis is resolved.

As for the metaphorical mastermind behind the scenes, although Yi Shen wanted to catch him immediately, the other party was hiding too well. Even with AI Sibyl's 24-hour global monitoring, no trace of the other party was found.

That being the case, Yi Shen is not the kind of person who would get entangled.

The AI's search continued, and he once again devoted himself to developing his own strength.

No matter what, strength is the greatest confidence to deal with all changes.

As long as he is strong enough, he can easily deal with any conspiracy of the mastermind behind the scenes.

If you are not strong enough, even if you know what the other party's conspiracy is, you can only watch the tragedy happen and be powerless to do anything.

However, to this day, Yi Shen has reached a bottleneck in the development of his own strength.

In terms of thunder elemental power, he is now able to skillfully convert between electricity and magnetism. Whether it is simple lightning, magnetic field, or electromagnetic waves, he can do it with ease. At the same time, he can also add various property changes to it, giving the released power various special attributes.

But the problem is that these advances of his are ultimately just derivatives of minor details. No matter how much he develops, the increase in his strength will be limited.

His output is ultimately limited to himself. No matter what nature the power is transformed into, the total amount released is limited. It is neither comparable to the ultimate man-made weapon such as the nuclear bomb, nor comparable to the mighty power of nature. "Anti-military level" is almost his current limit, and he can only be a lightly armed force with limited heavy firepower.

Of course, this does not mean that there is no future in specializing in details. If we explore the ultimate changes in power and extend the control accuracy of electromagnetic force to the molecular and even atomic levels, we can directly control the chemical bonds of matter. At that time, no matter what kind of matter can be controlled, decomposed, and reshaped at will by Yi Shen, and physical phenomena such as ice, wind, water, fire, etc. can also be easily created, because more than 99% of the various physical and chemical phenomena that we humans see in daily life are the result of electromagnetic force.

But unfortunately, Yi Shen's control over power is far from reaching this level. In short, his level of "subtlety" is not enough.

If you want to improve, it is not something that can be done in a short period of time.

Since the path of specialization and transformation is not feasible for the time being, there is only one way left, which is to find a way to increase your own output limit.

This road also has two directions.

One of them is to learn from the wisdom of our ancestors, follow the path of "harmony between man and nature", leverage the power of heaven, earth and the universe through one's own strength, and amplify the power of one's own moves hundreds or thousands of times.

In this regard, Magneto is a good example to learn from.

Leaving aside those versions in the comics that are too charlatan, let's just talk about the changes in his strength in the movie. In the early days, Old Wan had difficulty even pulling a submarine or turning a large radar antenna, but after being strengthened by Apocalypse, he was able to pry open the entire earth's magnetic field and create terrible natural disasters on a global scale. This is the most intuitive effect of the path of "harmony between man and nature".

In fact, Yi Shen had already dabbled in this kind of practice before - his technique of summoning rain clouds by setting up formations was essentially a relatively crude way of mobilizing the power of heaven and earth. Otherwise, with his own thunder element, it would be impossible for him to create rain clouds on such a large scale.

However, setting up an array is setting up an array, and achieving unity between man and nature is achieving unity between man and nature. Although the two have something in common in theory, there is a world of difference in the difficulty of actual operation.

Yi Shen could easily do the former, but for the latter, he only had an idea and didn't even know how to get started.

Since the path of "harmony between man and nature" is not possible for the time being, Yi Shen finally has only one choice - to enhance the lightning elemental power that he can mobilize, both in quality and quantity.

Yi Shen was very clear about one thing: the elemental force of thunder was not simply thunder and lightning, nor was it magnetism derived from electricity, but rather a rather idealistic energy.

Although it seems to come from the Eye of God, its origin actually comes from Yi Shen's own heart and is the manifestation of his will.

According to a certain "0 God" game, it is the so-called "human world power".

In the continent of Teyvat, the source of the Eye of God, human world force, light world force, and virtual world force are the three forms of power that exist in the world.
