After the finale of Chapter 1111, some people are still looking forward to the sequel
A month has passed since the Eternal Realm was established and order was restored on Douluo Star.
Douluo Star has recovered from the turmoil on the day of the Sea God Festival, and the Ten Sages Soul Master Forum has officially ended, but the people of Douluo Star have a new focus, that is, the great changes and development plans of Douluo Star.
The Arctic continent and the Antarctic continent floated up, and many islands became part of the land. The Douluo Continent was connected to the Arctic Continent and the Antarctic Continent, and the two were connected to the Tiandou Continent and the Xingluo Continent respectively, so that the land of the entire Douluo Star was connected together, forming a nearly ring-shaped structure. The East Douluo Ocean became the inland sea of this huge land, and was connected to the West Douluo Ocean through the Tianxing Sea in the east of the ring-shaped land.
Not only that, the original land has also undergone various topographical changes. For example, the basin area of the Lima River has expanded by nearly half, and river transportation has prospered unprecedentedly. As for floods, in the face of modern soul guide technology, that is not a problem.
Over the past few decades, most of the people who died in accidents have been resurrected one after another, which has caused quite a stir in the entire Douluo Star. Fortunately, the Douluo Federation responded quickly, and appropriate measures were taken in various places to ensure that these people returned to normal life.
Not only humans, but even some extinct soul beast tribes, such as the Sea Princess clan, were resurrected with the intervention of the gods.
An even greater impact was that a brand new divine realm was born, and Douluo Star was chosen as the base star.
Although the divine world did not intend to interfere with the development of human technology, such a big movement naturally affected Douluo Star. The Douluo Federation held consultations with the Tiandou Empire and the Xingluo Empire, and decided in a very short time to allow the two countries to join the Douluo Federation and become part of the Douluo Federation to jointly develop the newly emerged land. As for the specific details, they are still under discussion.
In this context, a large-scale development plan was put forward and became the most important focus of the Federation. However, the most attention-grabbing issue now is not the development of other continents, but the establishment of a new capital.
In fact, Xindu is not a city, but the floating pyramid itself. It was redesigned and renovated under the leadership of Liu Xiaoxiao, and a large amount of precious materials were used to create a brand new floating city. It contains a complete ecosystem and serves as a demonstration area and tourist city of the most advanced technology. It interacts with the outside world through a teleportation array. Every first-tier city has a teleportation array directly to Xindu.
At this moment, on the sixth floor of the new capital, in the technological city, Qin Lingxue and hundreds of passengers passed through the teleportation array and arrived in this city.
She did not choose to follow the group, but instead walked around the street by herself and soon came to a coffee shop.
Perhaps because the city doesn’t have many people, although the store is open, it is very deserted and there is not even a single person to be seen.
Qin Lingxue walked in, and she was greeted not by a person, but by a sleek machine. Above the machine was a display screen that guided guests to take their seats and order food through text and images.
She took a quick look and saw that the store did have a clerk, but he was playing games in the backstage with headphones on. It seemed that the store didn't need anyone for its daily operations.
She withdrew her gaze and looked at the peculiarly shaped machine. Although it was her first time seeing it, she understood how to operate it at a glance. She first took a seat under the guidance of the machine, then ordered her meals, took out a thin and light soul guide computer from the storage soul guide device, and browsed today's news online.
"The Federal Parliament voted to pass a new bill to establish a Federal Administrative Headquarters, integrating officials from the former Douluo Federation, the Heaven Dou Empire, and the Star Luo Empire. This is another agenda item to promote the integration of Douluo Star. The new Federal Administrative Headquarters will establish several new departments to cope with the various risks and challenges of the new era. Previously, the officials of the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire issued a statement announcing that after the transition period, the two countries will be renamed as autonomous regions. The royal family will only retain the royal identity, titles, and symbolic significance to ensure the orderly transfer of fortune..."
"The Federation Parliament passed a new Soul Beast Citizenship and Protection Act. This bill divides soul beast citizenship into full and incomplete citizenship. Soul beasts without citizenship will be treated the same as first-class protected animals. The acquisition of soul beast citizenship will be handled by a specialized agency organized by the Douluo Federation. This process involves both review and education, encouraging soul beasts with sufficient intelligence but still lacking citizenship to learn human morality, laws, and customs, and then pass soul beast citizenship certification. This standard will also apply to ethnic minorities and foreign civilizations such as the Huoli and Mermaid tribes..."
"The Federation Parliament passed the Soul Beast Autonomous Region Act, which designates existing land-based soul beast habitats as soul beast autonomous regions. Regarding maritime sovereignty, the Federation will adopt a joint governance plan between humans and sea soul beasts. This measure aims to ensure the stability of sea and air transport and reduce unnecessary transport escort forces..."
"The Federation's Space Department has entered its formation phase. This agency was established to address potential dangers and challenges in the Federation's future space exploration, aiming to safeguard the Federation's security and promote its development..."
"The smart court, jointly promoted by the Federal Court and the Federal Ministry of Information, has entered the trial operation phase. The Chief Justice of the Federation stated that going forward, they will gradually promote the intelligentization of judges, so that unbiased smart judges can make the most fair decisions based on the law..."
"The Federal Ministry of Information recently announced that it will abandon the old calendar and designate this year as the first year of the Eternal Calendar. This is the fourth calendar in Douluo Star's recorded history. Like the Sea God Calendar, the Sacred Calendar, and the Douluo Calendar, this calendar transition occurred during a period of significant change in human civilization. The Eternal Calendar will no longer be limited to Douluo Star's rotation, revolution, and the revolution of the moon and stars. It will also incorporate the universal calendars of many star regions in the universe for comparison, serving as a symbol of the Douluo Federation's march toward the universe..."
"Mingdu Information Hospital has launched a cognitive care program designed to prevent and treat cognitive dissonance caused by prolonged stays in virtual space. This program aims to help Federation citizens better adapt to life in virtual space and prevent dissociation and cognitive dislocation from the real world. Mingdu Information Hospital was founded 170 years ago..."
"A delegation from the Temple Federation arrived in Mingdu yesterday for a three-month exchange program. Sang Liuying, the Elemental Saint of the Magic Temple of the Temple Federation, led her team to challenge Shrek Academy. Shrek Academy has accepted the challenge and will arrange a match schedule in the near future, with the competition broadcast throughout the Federation..."
"Golden Dawn's Chief Scientist, Yi Tianzhi, announced that the knowledge inheritance system has been developed and will enter a trial operation phase, with the first phase being a pilot experiment at Shrek Academy. Reportedly, Shrek Academy plans to increase the proportion of practical courses and, following the example of ordinary academies, add literature, art, mathematics, and natural science courses, transforming from a purely soul master academy into one that trains students in a comprehensive manner. They have also announced that they will promote Shrek Academy's teaching model across all major academies in the Federation..."
"The Shrek Academy Martial Soul School has published a new study, arguing that the Martial Soul is connected to both the human body and soul, and is inextricably linked to genes and memes. Memes are transmitted information that can alter the shape of the soul. In their research, several gods have verified this theory by observing people's experiences, emotions, obsessions, and so on through clairvoyance. Strong emotions or desires can profoundly affect a person's Martial Soul. For example, if someone receives a headband from their parents as a birthday gift, but their parents pass away the next day, the strong obsession they place on the headband could cause their Martial Soul to mutate into a linear Martial Soul, or even completely transform into a headband. The degree of this mutation is positively correlated with the strength of the emotion within..."
"The Soul Master Association and the Spirit Pagoda are jointly promoting the integration of battle armor names and titles. Battle armor names will no longer be linked to battle armor levels. Titled Douluo titles will be directly equated with their battle armor names. This is to make it easier to remember the names of each Titled Douluo in an era with more and more Titled Douluos, reduce the possibility of duplicate names, and prevent the battle armor names of god-level masters from becoming too long. It is reported that two hundred and seventy-two years ago, Silver Rose secretly promoted a battle armor name grading strategy, so that the concept of different levels of battle armor masters having battle armor names of different lengths of characters was deeply rooted in people's minds, thereby strengthening the sense of elitism among battle armor masters..."
Seeing this, Qin Lingxue couldn't help but frown slightly. "Even this move was dismantled by them. It seems they noticed it too."
She quickly relaxed her brows. At this moment, a cup of coffee floated over from a distance. It was not supported by a tray. It flew steadily in front of her and landed on the table.
"If possible, I hope they can replace this hard seat with a soft sofa first..." Qin Lingxue pressed the hard seat and found that it seemed to be made of pretty good metal. It looked quite gorgeous in appearance, but the comfort was really not that good.
She shook her head and stretched her body. At this moment, the door opened and a young man dressed as a gangster walked in.
The other person was wearing gold-rimmed sunglasses and had tattoos on his arms, looking unruly.
Seeing the newcomer, Qin Lingxue frowned. "You've been more patient than I expected, unexpectedly waiting until today to see me. What's with that attire? You don't think you can get away with it, Your Majesty the Law Enforcer?"
The person who came was Liu Xiaoxiao. He didn't change his appearance and just laughed. "You can see through me, but I can't see through you. Although you look like a mere first-level deity, you have the status of a God King inside, and some aspects are related to the Supreme God King. What are your origins and what is your purpose, Your Majesty the Witch?"
"Do you hope to get information from me?" Qin Lingxue showed an indifferent sneer.
"If possible, I certainly don't want to become your enemy," Liu Xiaoxiao said in a deep voice. "Countless clues are intertwined among the many events of this life, but you are the only one nowhere to be found. Although everything is connected, your actions seem independent of these events. What is your purpose?"
"Well...why don't you take a guess?" Qin Lingxue smiled.
"You've taken many seemingly useless actions, hoping to distract us with this massive amount of behavior and prevent us from pinpointing your true purpose. More than 99% of your actions are useless, and the few truly useful ones are buried among them," Liu Xiaoxiao said solemnly. "But finding clues and evidence among them is too difficult, and there's no way to prove any one guess is correct. It's like a code. Depending on the rules, you might get countless different and logical answers, but there's only one truth."
"Don't you have the ability to control your destiny? Can't you use that for analysis?" Qin Lingxue narrowed her eyes.
"Forget about trying to probe my abilities," Liu Xiaoxiao said indifferently. "In short, my conclusion is that in these three hundred years, you've done only one truly meaningful act, and that was to leave traces of the Silver Rose's existence in this era, thereby influencing the trends of the times and allowing memes related to the Silver Rose to remain in this era."
"This isn't the reasoning you could have made in the past. Back then, you lacked the necessary knowledge and common sense regarding truth magic." Qin Lingxue said, "It seems that the information I gained through possession has been of great help to you. It has helped you fill in the last piece of the puzzle and make the corresponding inferences and judgments."
"So, you admit it?" Liu Xiaoxiao asked.
"The name 'Silver Rose' was changed nearly a hundred years ago," Qin Lingxue continued. "It symbolizes silver, the Silver Dragon King. And 'Golden Dawn' symbolizes gold, representing the Golden Dragon King. They are yin and yang, corresponding to the theme of this era: the Gold and Silver Dragon Kings. The contradiction between gold and silver represents irreconcilable opposition and inevitable sacrifice. By strengthening these corresponding elements and establishing corresponding symbols, I can more deeply influence this era."
"You don't belong to this era?" Liu Xiaoxiao spoke.
"Haven't you experienced time travel too? Time travel." Qin Lingxue laughed. "In this world, there are surprisingly many treasures that can be used to travel through time and space, such as the Samsara Fruit and the Kunlun Mirror."
"Do you know Qi Yue and the others?" Liu Xiaoxiao's aura suddenly oppressed Qin Lingxue.
Qin Lingxue took a sip of coffee and said calmly, "Haven't you always been curious about why so many people from Earth have reincarnated into this era? Even Qi Yue's son is among them. How does this benefit Hermes and the others? In the memories you obtained from Hermes and Belial, the alien souls carried over shouldn't include him, right?"
Liu Xiaoxiao didn't say anything.
"What do you think of the underworld? Something that clearly didn't exist, or was just a backdrop, has actually gained substance and become a major crisis. Pretty incredible, isn't it?" Qin Lingxue continued. "Why did Hermes and the others come to this planet? Is it all just a coincidence caused by the butterfly effect? Are your tiny actions, limited to one planet, amplified by the butterfly effect and sweeping across the entire universe? You really think too highly of yourselves."
"Was it your instigation?" Liu Xiaoxiao narrowed his eyes.
"It's guidance," Qin Lingxue corrected. "Now, my goal has almost been fully achieved. The rise of the Silver Rose symbolizes the growth of the Silver Dragon King. Your actions in erasing the traces of the Silver Rose can replace the fall of the Silver Dragon King. This is true on a symbolic level, and I only want such a symbol. As for the Golden Dragon King, when one of Zu Yuan's personalities died, the corresponding Law of Similarity was satisfied. Although it was a bit forced, the conditions were indeed met. Your actions to stop me were also within my calculations and part of my plan. It is because of your efforts that I can achieve my goal."
Liu Xiaoxiao ignored the other party's provocation and asked, "You want to take advantage of the changes in this era and use your magic to change the future situation?"
"Then the next question is, Qi Yue's son arrived in this era, accompanied by so many companions. Why didn't he accomplish anything? Who sent them to this era? If they were supposed to do something, why didn't they do it?" Qin Lingxue said with some amusement. "You should have spoken to Qi Yue before. Why didn't he tell you anything?"
"Do you want to show that you are our enemy?" Liu Xiaoxiao stared into Qin Lingxue's eyes.
In his vision, Qin Lingxue was still transparent, without any color brought by emotional changes, and even his spiritual vision could not see the truth.
"The answer is simple. How could the past know what would happen in the future?" Qin Lingxue laughed. "Traveling through time with a mission, only to forget the original purpose—isn't that a very clichéd plot? Who facilitated such a coincidence?"
Liu Xiaoxiao opened his eyes, his deep vertical eyes seemed to be captivating and able to see through everything in the world.
"Finally, let me give you one more piece of advice." Qin Lingxue's figure gradually faded from Liu Xiaoxiao's vision. "All of this is just the beginning. The real battle will take place ten thousand years from now."
Liu Xiaoxiao did not move, just watching Qin Lingxue's figure gradually disappear.
Behind him, figures appeared one after another, they were Fan Yihuang, Xiaopang and others.
"You can't completely believe what she says, or you'll play into her hands." He Qiang said.
Chen Long looked at Liu Xiaoxiao and said, "Looking at your expression, it seems like you remembered something."
"This kind of existence, disregarding everything, weaving a script just to watch a good show, using the entire planet as the stage and all life as the actors, seems to have some impression of it." Liu Xiaoxiao pondered, "How could I have forgotten it? It's so obvious..."
After a pause, he looked at the others, then at Zhang Shiwen, and they both spoke at the same time:
"Enchantress."
