Chapter Forty-Seven: The Magic War
Located in a half-plane of the astral plane, the huge world tree like an autumn maple tree is constantly falling with red leaves, and the next moment the leaves will grow back on the world tree.
The autumn leaves that fall to the ground disappear the moment they touch the ground, as if they have traveled to another world.
In the distance, nine people were operating some kind of machine with blank expressions, and there were a large number of various materials piled up nearby.
Under the tree, a young man lies in a rocking chair and spends his days leisurely reading a book with no beginning and no end.
"Dear Mr. Preacher, I, Mephistopheles Felis, would like to make a small deal with you. ”
A crack suddenly tore through the space, and a friendly and polite voice came from it, and then a tall devil and a white middle-aged man appeared in front of the happy meeting through the crack.
It was the incarnation of the devil lord Mephistophelis of the eighth layer of the Nine Hells, and Jack, a soldier from the earth, who had been observing them with prayer for a long time in the past few days.
"Mephistopheles Felis, I knew you were going to come to me, and now you've finally given up on the Ivy one?"
"He's just unbeatable. Well, Mr. Faustus, are you interested......"
"Not interested, this world, I mean there's nothing in the entire multiverse that deserves my attention. I'm only interested in the endless unknown and the unknown itself, but unfortunately you can't give it to me. 」
Mephistopheles Felix was not sad when he heard this, and his desires would not be satisfied, but as long as he had them, he would be tempted.
However, the words that followed the happy meeting made him feel disappointed in this human who was also famous among the devils.
"You're mistaken. What I mean when I say you can't give it to me is that you took this avatar of yours because you failed in the previous contract, so this avatar of yours has lost its freedom. 」
"Hahaha, what do you mean by that? You say this Jack? He is now a slave who cannot resist my will, and if you count me in this matter, then you have failed. ”
Xi Xiangyu got up from the rocking chair and threw the book of sand to the ground, and when the book hit the ground, it disappeared like a maple leaf.
"In our country, there is a method used to trap people, called Ming Xiu Plank Road, and secretly crossing Chen Cang. When you think that the second pact you made with Jack is the main battleground, you've already lost. 」
"Oh, the devil will do everything in any contract, and the method you think of has been tried eons ago, and in the end they still lose everything! ”
When it comes to contract fraud, no one is stronger than the devil, no one!
"Of course not, I'm not arrogant enough to control other people's contracts, and then you'll find me, and the plan will fail. Mephistopheles, now I ask you, did you really do your best in the first contract you signed with Jack, didn't you make any concessions or compromises?"
"Of course you gave in, because you had to get Jack to sign a second contract with you anyway. 」
"But the first is the key to everything!"
Jack loses everything in the second contract, and even has to obey Mephistopheles Felix in order not to lose his soul. However, the second contract was meant to be lost, so I won't repeat it.
The point is that Jack's probationary contract with Mephistopheles based on the teachings of someone he remembers.
Mephistopheles Felis, in order to prove his pact spirit, signed a pact without many backdoors.
The general content is as follows:
1. In order to prove the authenticity of his credit and contract, Mephisto Felix must carry out the contract of the 3D printer in accordance with the rules of the earth, and this contract must also meet the contract law of a country that is not known to a third party, so as to prevent both parties from taking advantage of the loopholes of the contract and the contract law for unjust enrichment due to some method. And this third country is Huaxia, and when the contract is signed, both parties are regarded as Chinese citizens and write Chinese characters.
2. Both parties must give their souls to each other after breaking the contract.
3. Mephisto Fehlis must ensure that Jack feels the will of the world after signing the contract, and Jack must sign a second contract with Mephisto Felix after learning the authenticity of the contract.
4. If Jack later discovers any irregularities committed by Mephistopheles in any of these contracts, any subsequent contracts and even verbal agreements signed by them will be null and void.
5. The party who breaches the contract first will pay the soul, and at the same time, the contract will be voided, and the other party will not be punished for breach of contract.
"I didn't give in at all, and there was nothing wrong with the first contract!"
"No, you are wrong, no citizen of our country can violate the Constitution. 」
This means that as long as you recognize the contract law of Huaxia as a citizen of China, you must also recognize the constitution of Huaxia.
"And if you break the Constitution first, Jack will also violate the Constitution, and according to the contract, the first to violate will be punished. I won't say how much you violated, but if you are interested, you can count it yourself. 」
"So now, the soul of Mephistopheles Felix, the incarnation, belongs to Jack, and it belongs to me. 」
"Now that you understand where you lost, let's talk about it......
"No! that's not true!"
The cry of remorse of the Devil Grand Duke resounded through the half-plane of the happy meeting, resounded through the astral plane, and even attracted the attention of the Gisyankees tens of millions of meters away......
On February 29, the first year of the Pioneer Era, the incarnation of Mephistopheles, the eighth level of the Nine Prisons, led the devil's army to the place where the missionary mages met together, located in a half-plane of the astral plane.
The Joy Encounter was defeated by the Devil Army and almost died, and finally opened all the World Tree teleportation channels at the same time, and in an instant, a huge amount of magic power filled the half-plane, forming an incredible scale of super magic storm.
The storm swept across the entire half-plane, killing all the demonic armies in the super-demonic storm, and Mephistopheles Felix's avatar was chopped to pieces by the preacher mage's scorching blazing white pillars of light with ten thousand swords.
On the same day, the magic power of the Mystery Lock in the capital of the Elven Empire dried up instantly, which was suspected to be caused by the excessive absorption of the World Tree. The Missionary stated that he would take responsibility for this, and after a hundred years, he would hand over the new World Tree administrator and ownership to the Elves, and welcome the Elves to oversee him.
On the same day, the effective range of Corantia's World Tree teleportation spell was doubled. Most of Corantia was covered by the World Tree's teleportation range, and most of the inhabitants of Corantia had ushered in a more convenient and superior life.
On April 1, the first year of the Pioneer Era, the Ers people of the port of Noyer declared war on the surrounding countries, known as the Magic War, also known as the April Fool's Day War.
When the kings, lords, monarchs, and other rulers of various countries still laughed at the inadequacy of the Euss, their palaces and government halls were already occupied by armies that everyone could use high-level magic at will.
In just one day, all three countries around Noyer chose to surrender.
The news spread around the world through the World Tree, and for a time, the entire country of Colandia began to unite to resist Noyer's aggression.
and collectively declared war on Noyer and the Ers.
(End of Volume 2)
Volume 2 Afterword and Protagonist Character Card Update
Actually, to be honest, I feel that the second volume is very unsatisfactory. There are too many stories and too many things to write. However, due to the problem of my own writing and ability, a large number of main and side plots did not know how to write them and had to be greatly cut.
Now that I think about it, a lot of the things we experienced when we ran the group were so big that I couldn't control them after writing a novel.
For example, the exploration of the different planes, the rescue of the abyss, the war between the two worlds, and the reconciliation war of the protagonist group, and finally the development of the traveling scholar organization to more planes and even the outer world of the multiverse, this grand setting is really difficult for a novice like me who loves to write.
By now, I have a feeling that the more I write, the more I write, the more I fall apart, and in order to avoid a complete collapse in the end, I think I must at least slowly close the plot before it completely goes berserk.
It may only be more than 300,000 words in the end, but I try to keep the book as a clever little story until the end.
Although the writing is really pretty bad...... But I'm sure you can see that you're more or less used to it hahaha.
But seriously, why does the writing of advertising students rot like this......
