Dark Moon, over the town of Dico, purple moonlight obscured by dark clouds everywhere. The thick haze in the sky was the gloomy face of someone in the military tent below.

Tomorrow is the date of the decisive battle, but the face of Obsidian Lucifer, the commander of the Imperial Capital Coalition and the regent of the Fallen Angel Empire, is clouded, not because of nervousness, but because of the great changes that have taken place in the past few days.

It means that before the duel began, the opponent had already knocked several smacks in a row.

First of all, two days ago, a thunderbolt of news from a sunny day gave His Highness Obsidian, who was full of confidence to conquer the Dark Moon, a blow to the head.

The Imperial Capital of the Fallen Angels has been captured by the combined forces of the Walloch Fortress and the White Feather Territory led by the First General George Wells!

The Patriarchal Families and the Remaining Royal Families Surrender to the Enemy! The Second General Duolun Ruth is Killed, and the Red Demon Legion is Wiped Out! All the Cronies Families Are Uprooted!

In an instant, Obsidian almost thought that there was something wrong with his judgment, until after confirming it over and over again, the information in his hand had been burned to ashes by the irrepressible Black Flame.

George!Sikari!Patriarch Family!Royalty!Obsidian cursed the name of each betrayer through gritted teeth, and the entire command center was almost reduced to powder by the enraged Liliang.

Compared with General George, who has always stood on the opposite side, Obsidian hates the shameless villain Sikari in the White Feather Territory even more, ostensibly currying favor with the imperial capital and using tricks to deal with the Warlock Fortress, but secretly he falls to General George and conspires to capture the imperial capital. There are also those royal families and elder families who stayed in the imperial capital, and they actually joined forces with outsiders to stab him in the back!

No matter how rich and threatening the Dark Moon is, it is just a territory, but the imperial capital is the most important foundation of the entire empire!

However, the current situation is already difficult to ride a tiger, whether it is to stand still or rashly withdraw troops to attack the imperial capital, it will be attacked from both sides by the dark moon and the imperial capital. The only way to do this is to destroy the Dark Moon as quickly as possible, and then kill back to give the rebels in the imperial capital a thunderous blow.

At that time, when the news of the fall of the imperial capital came, only Obsidian, Zhuo Che, and a very few lords and generals learned about it. Zhuo Che immediately proposed to keep the news tightly sealed before the decisive battle. so as not to shake the morale of the army.

Zhuo Che's reaction and loyalty made Obsidian's heart a little relieved, and this suggestion was exactly what he wanted, and he immediately ordered Zhuo Che to personally lead a team to supervise and patrol the territory to prevent spies from spreading rumors.

The distance between the imperial capital and Diko Town is quite far, and the channels through which information is transmitted are through a dedicated communication desk, which is impossible for ordinary people to know. Under the blockade of various means, the soldiers who were kept in the dark did not know that the imperial capital had been captured. Still gearing up for the decisive battle.

However, just when His Royal Highness Regent's heart was not completely relaxed, he received another slap in the face - just this afternoon, the news of the fall of the imperial capital by the rebels suddenly spread quickly throughout the entire coalition army!

Tomorrow is the decisive battle, and at such a fatal time, something has gone wrong, and there is no time to buffer or appease!

Obsidian was furious and kicked Zhuo Che, who was in charge of monitoring, to the ground. He was bitterly condemned for his dereliction of duty and severely punished by military law.

Zhuo Che hurriedly explained that in the past two days, he had been leading the monitoring team to personally investigate the barracks, and he had also placed eyes and ears in every barracks, and he had not found any disturbances in advance. According to the investigation, there are two sources of news spread this afternoon, namely General Amsti's Black Nightmare Cavalry Regiment and the men and horses under the command of the Patriarch Demon Emperor Lagraros, and these two people are exactly the people who were present when the Obsidian burned the information before.

Zorche then went on to state that there was no conclusive evidence that the leak was at the behest of Amsti and Lagraros. This is most likely a trick of the enemy.

Obsidian was originally suspicious by nature, and after the fall of the imperial capital, he became suspicious of all the people around him, and he was most afraid that the patriarchal family and royal family in the coalition would betray him like those guys in the imperial capital, and now the news leak incident was like a fuse, igniting the anger that Obsidian had been suppressing, and regardless of everyone's pleas, he directly took down Amsti and Lagraros and beheaded them for public display. ...,

It would have been quite unfavorable to kill the general before the decisive battle, but in this sensitive and extraordinary period, Obsidian has already made up his mind to indulge in vain - the truth of the current imperial capital can no longer be concealed. Morale was hit in the eye. Ordinary methods are difficult to work, and only the fastest and most effective bloody means can be used to calm the hearts of the people and the army. From this point of view. These two people are the chickens that are used to set an example to the monkeys, and whether they are innocent or not, they must die.

The execution of Amsti and Lagraros caused considerable agitation, and Obsidian quickly made promises to all the soldiers to defeat Darkmoon and let them plunder, barely stabilizing the situation.

Obsidian knew in his heart that this kind of stability was only superficial, and only with a big victory could the military really stabilize the morale of the army. In any case, tomorrow's battle will not be defeated, and the main force of the Dark Moon must be defeated. Otherwise, if it is delayed any longer, once George leads his army south, the coalition army will be in danger of being attacked on the back.

On the other hand, there is still no news from Geraint, who attacked the western part of the Dark Moon, and sometimes, no news is also a kind of news, and now, Obsidian is prepared for the worst. However, even if Geraint's entire army is wiped out, it can also show that there is a considerable number of defensive forces to the west of Darkmoon, so the main force of the Darkmoon Army in Diko Town should be somewhat disabled, and tomorrow's decisive battle will have one more chance of winning.

His Royal Highness the Regent himself may not have realized that when did a war that he thought was without suspense start to be calculated carefully?

In the town of Reis, south of Dico Town, in the central tent of the Darkmoon Army, Xia stood quietly alone in front of the hanging military map, her mind fluctuating, and at this time, it was already a snake to study what strategy and tactics were temporarily crammed, whether it was a dragon or a snake, it would depend on tomorrow's battle.

The news of General George's capture of the imperial capital had already spread among the Darkmoon Army, and the soldiers were all excited, just as Xia said at the mobilization meeting before the decisive battle, tomorrow's battle would be a battle to regain the glory of the Red Blood Flame Light Banner and rewrite the history of the Fallen Angel Empire.

In addition to the good news from the imperial capital, there was also good news from the west, Athena successfully disintegrated the surprise attack of the third general of the empire in the Valan Fortress, and Geraint himself was captured alive, and the 2,000 soldiers of the Sabertooth Tiger Legion under his command were taken prisoner. The favorable factors that can be exploited now have basically all been brought into play, and the key lies in tomorrow's war.

If she can defeat Obsidian in this battle, then her father's dream for many years and the heavy mission she has been carrying will be realized; Not only is the loss of troops and the loss of vitality, but the Shili who has been looking forward to the imperial capital and all over the world may raise its head, the previous plan will be ruined, and the dark moon will also fall into a desperate situation under the pressure of step by step. Whether it is for her, for obsidian, or for the entire Fallen Angel Empire, it is a decisive battle in the true sense.

This battle. Ever since her father, Grimm Lucifer, the former crown prince of the empire, has been waiting. After she took over as lord, Darkmoon never gave up this belief, even though she had been in the difficult stage of being sanctioned and suppressed by obsidian.

I had imagined the battle countless times, but now when the extravagant hope miraculously became a reality, there was a dreamlike feeling in my heart. It's all because of that man. That miracle worker.

If it weren't for that man, Dark Moon would never have been where she is today, and maybe she would still be the struggling down-and-out princess. If there was no Dark Moon, with that man's outstanding ability, he would also be able to create dazzling brilliance on another stage.

All kinds of past things appeared in front of her like a picture scroll, and Xia Ya's undulating thoughts gradually calmed down, and only that faint warmth lingered in her heart, showing an unprecedented peace.

Unlike the exhilarations that Isabella had before when she deliberately stimulated her fighting spirit, this was a real serenity. ..., there is no turning back from the bow. No matter what the outcome of tomorrow's battle was, she would not regret it, just like when the man shouted "For the eldest princess" and rode alone towards the 100,000-strong army of Chiyou, just like when a "stupid woman" opened her heart to him for the first time in the secret room.

Missed you so much.

Just miss you so much.

Shia closed her eyes gently.

At this time, in the northern part of Darkmoon City, a black horse crossed Jumo Town in the night and rushed in the direction of Lacey Town.

The speed of the dark horse is extremely amazing, even exceeding the speed of the flight of the demonic beast in the air. A dark shadow was lying on horseback. As if asleep, this dark horse is extremely strange. Although fast, it is much smoother than a normal mount, and no matter how steep the terrain is, it only allows the owner behind it to shake gently without falling off the horse.

This person is Chen Rui and the little black horse, Chen Rui after pacifying the imperial capital, learned the news of the decisive battle between the dark moon and the coalition army, because when stealing the sword of the fallen angel, the two star points of the starry sky gate are located in the imperial capital, and he has directly rushed back to the dark moon, but he still has a shortcut, that is, the rainbow valley on the outskirts of the imperial capital.

Chen Rui is now the veritable male owner of Rainbow Valley, and he can enter the valley and avoid those magic arrays with his eyes closed, at this time Laura is no longer in Rainbow Valley, obviously going to Reis Town to participate in the decisive battle, Chen Rui used the spatial passage of Rainbow Valley to quickly return to the garden of the Dark Moon Residence.

At this time, the bipedal flying dragons and flying demonic beasts in Dark Moon City were basically all transferred to the front line, but fortunately, Chen Rui still had the little black horse that had been kept in the yard, although the ground had to make many detours than the air, but the speed of the little black horse should be able to make up for this deficiency as much as possible.

Chen Rui is not sleeping on horseback because of fatigue now, but has entered the training ground of the super system, it is not safe to enter the training ground in this state, but there is not much time left, only to seize every minute and every second.

For a long time, in Chen Rui's cognition, the super system is just an existence similar to a smart computer, this "computer" can be upgraded, and the function can be realized, and he is just a user with this unique benefit. Gangjing, Evil Realm...... Until now, with the increase of the level, more functions have been developed.

Since experiencing the "inheritance" of the ancient alchemy civilization, under the impact of the demigod-level soul liliang, there has been a new change in the perception of the super system, which has nothing to do with the "function", but the super system itself.

From the formation of chaotic space to stars and then galaxies, the whole process is the evolution of life in the universe, especially the animals, plants and even humans on those planets, who feel that they are all living beings, not digital virtual things.

In other words, supersystems are life, living organisms that are constantly evolving and being conceived.

What is life? Is it just a meaning of "existence" in the universe?

It's a big topic, and one that doesn't have a standard answer.

In the universe, the moment of the birth of life means the beginning of death. Whether it is a dragon clan that can live for tens of thousands of years or hundreds of thousands of years, or a corpse witch who claims to be immortal, even if it is a legendary god, in the face of the vast truth of the universe, it is only a moment after all. Any immortal life has a moment of decay, including the universe itself.

Chen Rui didn't think too much about this kind of generalized thing, as a human being, he thought about life in a simple sense, such as himself. Human life can be continued from generation to generation through blood, and even if it cannot be continued, after death, it will turn into the soil or dust of the earth, and will give birth to flowers and plants, and exist as a new life. Life and death, destruction and birth, the cycle is continuous, this is the true meaning of life, and it is also the supreme principle of the universe. ..., to be alive is to exist. It has always been there until it perished.

Existence is reason, existence and meaning.

Don't give up life easily, don't give up what you have, cherish what exists, that's what he understands about the meaning of life.

After this conceptual change, Chen Rui seems to have found a breakthrough in some kind of bottleneck, and entered a realm of "seeing mountains is not mountains, and seeing water is not water". For example, the same trajectory of the stars, do not look at the "boot screen", do not look at the "program and formula", but really understand the truth and mystery contained in it.

When Chen Rui used his understanding of the meaning of life to perceive and touch the life form of the super system, there was an incompatible conflict, and a subtle fusion occurred, in the process of this contradiction and unity, a trace of the perception that could not be touched before was deepening, and the degree of compatibility with the super system was also increasing little by little.

A day in the training ground was equivalent to a hundred days, and as time passed, the experience points of the Transformation Realm, which had been struggling in the status bar, began to beat at an alarming rate. But Chen Rui didn't know this, he had forgotten time, forgotten himself, and was completely immersed in the mysterious realm of this fusion.

Not only that, in a long bag wrapped in black cloth behind Chen Rui, a sword that could not be stored in the storage warehouse was also rapidly changing with unknown light under the analysis of a certain skill.

In the little black horse running like the wind, the morning light has slowly become brighter in the mist.
