Chapter 258: Judgment Gloves

The reason why Amon was allowed to stabilize the situation as a spokesperson, rather than coming forward himself, Evan also had his own considerations.

First of all, the Land of Light is not a normal country.

Although the empire was ostensibly theocracy, the Sun King was mostly a secular monarch, and his divinity was more of a symbol of legitimacy and legitimacy. The Kingdom of Light, on the other hand, is the opposite, where the royal power is a theocratic vassal most of the time, and all political systems are in the service of theocracy.

Moreover, with the arrival of Ivan in the Land of Light, he also used a stronger divine power to break the rotten divine power of the Land of Light.

As we all know, God is infallible.

This will lead to him, the living king of the gods, becoming an authority in the absolute sense, and even a symbol of truth - if he says something casually, he will be used as an indicator of his own actions by fanatics, and then make some kind of moth, which is very bad.

Because of this, he is better used as a symbol in a spiritual sense.

For other things, it would be more appropriate for the nation to have Amon, the Holy One, preside over the overall situation in his place and proclaim the precepts in the name of God.

It boils down to one sentence – God is in heaven, and the world is peaceful.

In fact, it's not just the Realm of Light, Evan has always done this in the Empire, he now barely interferes in the running of the cabinet, and has been busy with his own business. In a way, the status of the Cabinet is equated with that of the Holy One—and Amon is the spokesman for the divine power, and the cabinet is the spokesman for secular power.

......

The day when the King of the Gods overcame darkness and returned to the earth is known as the first year of the Corona in the Land of Light.

Seven days later, the agenda for the merger of the two countries was officially launched.

The Empire began to send officials to the Land of Light, and unilaterally opened its markets and borders (in order to protect the economy of the Land of Light), providing huge amounts of aid without compensation. On this basis, the Empire also accepted the calendar of the first year of the corona, declaring this day to be the day when the people of Menes returned to the great unity.

In order to ensure that the Kingdom of Light can be integrated into the Empire on the basis of peace and stability, whether it is propaganda or practical actions, the Empire officials have done a very good job - spending one-fifth of the financial resources to carry out super-large-scale planning and support for the Land of Light.

The sincerity of real money, coupled with the cooperation of the Holy Amon, made this bloodless merger of regimes go extremely smoothly. It can be said that for the vast majority of the people of the Land of Light, what they have lost is only the shackles, but what they have gained is a more wonderful world.

For the old forces of the Land of Light, this day was also the day of their destruction, as the Holy One Amon announced a series of reforms by God's will, including the separation of church and state, compulsory education, administrative division, the appointment of governors, and the most deadly excommunication.

The excommunication decree targets the entire religious community of the Land of Light, all of whom have been stripped of their clergy status and will be exiled to the swampy planets far from Hyperion, populating the sparsely populated areas. All the land wealth they occupy will be remeasured and distributed to the common people on a per capita basis.

Once the land is acquired, the new government will help them organize agricultural cooperatives to improve agricultural technology and develop derivative industries based on agricultural products. At the same time, it provides infrastructure construction, medical care and education subsidies, making the Land of Light a beautiful world built on a vast countryside.

Yes, Ivan does not intend for the Land of Light to have industries and large cities, not because of partiality, but because the empire currently has a serious overcapacity of industry.

As we all know, consumption is also an important part of the economy, and production capacity exceeding consumption capacity will lead to economic crisis.

Apart from fighting, the only way for the empire today to absorb excess capacity is to build an idyllic world with a standard of living that is not inferior to that of the cities, to feed agriculture with industry, to develop ecological farms, and to allow the wealthy peasants to consume industrial products.

The Land of Light, which has been in an agricultural society for countless centuries, happens to be the perfect embryo of the modern pastoral world, and agricultural planning here can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

As for the tertiary industry, the so-called virtual economy, the so-called financial industry - Ivan has always disliked such bells and whistles, and regards the so-called experts in the empire who advocate the transformation of the economy from real to virtual as sand sculptures.

The development of the pastoral world and the prosperity of farmers can form a good interaction between the city and the countryside, release production capacity, and narrow the gap between the rich and the poor.

What can the development of the financial industry bring? I am afraid that instead of bringing about the industry, it will cause capital to flow to quick money, creating a large number of moths that make money out of money.

If we don't do a good job in rural construction, we have to rectify the kind of toxic bubble that makes the poor poorer and the rich richer.

......

Through the merger of the kingdoms of earth and heaven, the kingdom of light gained economic benefits, and the empire received the legacy of civilization: in the Millennium City, the true face of the Nexus Sanctuary when it was not renovated was actually the treasury of kings in the Golden Age.

Almost all of Swire technology is sealed inside, and it is one level stronger than the Tree of Wisdom in terms of quality and quantity, and there is no weathering or wear and tear. From this point of view, the decline of civilization in the Land of Light may not be a natural process, and it is likely that there is a tragic fault line similar to the 'Manchu Qing Dynasty'.

In this, the priest is estimated to have played a pivotal role.

In order to better study Swire Technology, Evan left a backup in the same place, and moved the entire library of the King's Book to Silent City, which was more secure than White Moon as a dimensional transformation device.

One by one, one by one

Silent City, Throne of the Machines.

Since the oversized dimensional shuttle device was not yet completed, the Throne of the Machines was just an open field with a lead-gray base and evenly divided transistor circuits.

In the empty space, there is only a circular mechanical pedestal, embedded with a slanted blue display, and inside is a meter-high silver metal cylinder. With this metal pillar as the center, the edges of the four transparent crystal plates are connected, supporting the azure information matrix.

Bang Dang——!

The closed door of the mechanical throne sliced open to both sides, and Ivan stepped into the lead-gray silence and walked straight to the mechanical pedestal. He glanced at the data displayed on the matrix layout, then reached out to the crystal plate and entered the dynamic information password.

"The command is entered correctly, welcome back, dear maker. ”

The metal cylinder inside the matrix instantly rose upward, and the top lid swirled and opened outwards like petals, revealing a brilliant gem that shone with a blood-colored glow.

Buzz——!

The Temporal Gem was exposed to the air, and after breaking away from the shield of the matrix, the Judgment Glove on Ivan's left hand shook violently, and the other two gems also bloomed with a sun-like light.

"Resonance?"

Ivan stretched out his right hand and captured the Spacetime Stone out of thin air, removing it from the mechanical pedestal. As he grasped the Temporal Gem, he raised his left hand flat to his chest, embedding the Temporal Stone into the final slot in the Judgment Gloves.

Click——!

With a clear crisp sound, the three divine stones returned to their places, and the gold-textured ruling glove suddenly became mottled and transparent.

At this moment, the Ruling Glove and Ivan's left hand lost texture and color in an instant, leaving only a basic outline made of lines. And inside the outline, there is an infinite universe and an infinite starry sky.

"Hahahaha! This is the Adjudication Gloves...... This power ......"

Ivan laughed and raised his left hand, looking at the armored glove that seemed to hold the infinite void, and his dark eyes shone brightly.

Accompanied by a circle of ethereal ripples, mysterious symbols emerge from the surface of the Gauntlet of Judgment, and then flow to form veins, streamlined veins of light extending from the surface of the glove, and the intertwined streams of light envelop Evan's entire body in it—connecting with him to form a perfect cycle of energy.

“......”

Ivan had countless symbols of light in his pupils, and then spun and snapped together, reflecting layers of parallel coils.

The interior of the Throne of the Machines was quiet without a single murmur, like an isolated and closed fortress. With the maker's body at the center, the lead-gray metal floor is swirled with light, and layers of spectacular and beautiful linear symbols resembling gears float.

The gear-shaped magnificent coils slide layer by layer, and with each slide, the symbols in the coils are reassembled, forming completely different energy force fields with different shapes and structures, showing the basic hues of red, cyan, and gold.

Suddenly, there was an imperceptible shock on Evan's body, and all visions including the coil disappeared.

He looked up.

The whole world in my vision has changed dramatically by this time—there is no more mass and volume, no more form and structure, no more color and smell, no more energy and matter.

Only countless silver lines remained.

Centered on the Gauntlet of Judgment, a vast network of countless intertwined paths of light and countless nodes penetrated into various parts of the void. With the Three Gems at its core, the Gauntlet of Judgment has established a unique dimensional strike system capable of acting at infinite distances based on the will of the wielder.

Maybe in the end, he only needs to snap his fingers to kill half of the life forms in the universe.

"I can't do that kind of intensity yet, but it's ......"

Looking at the mechanical pedestal in front of him, Ivan clenched his left fist violently, and the three gems on the Judgment Glove lit up at the same time.

Smack——!

With a crisp snap of the fingers, the Throne of the Machine underwent a wonderful transformation.

It was as if a space that had been folded up was now flattened, and the area of the Throne of the Machines had suddenly expanded several times, and it was still extending outward infinitely.

Inside the lead-gray space, a three-dimensional silver mesh structure floats, which is expanding endlessly outward with the Judgment Glove as the core. In the blink of an eye, the Throne of the Machines was transformed into an empty space fortress, and Ivan stood in the center of the silver grid, no bigger than an ant on a macroscopic scale.

"I didn't expect the full body of the adjudication glove to be able to do it to this extent. ”

Looking at the mechanical throne, which was magnified hundreds of times, Ivan let go of his left fist, and the silver lines in the space suddenly disappeared, and the entire space also returned to its original state in an instant.
