A little unknown technology, a ball of soulless blood embedded in the depths of the chip, some loyal personalities-

You'll be able to create a being that walks on the edge of the rules.

Hades...... Hades knew what he was doing, so while creating the creation, Hades also imposed strict restrictions on it.

The first is the inseparable soulless flesh, which limits the unlimited growth of data - after all, even the most efficient data is limited by hardware.

The second is the [Update] rules set by Hades for this system, and Hades himself designed a data collection box cast by Blackstone, named the Black Box.

The blackstone material comes from the blackstone buried beneath the 21st Cathedral.

The world of Salem Forge will select the best sages in their respective fields, and after being tested for loyalty, transplant black boxes for them.

But the selection is not over yet.

Only when this sage sacrificed for the sake of mankind and was identified by many parties as having a stable and pure personality can he be said to be completely chosen.

The black box will be placed in the Cathedral of 21 for a full year, and then the personality stability assessment will be performed again.

Once there is no problem with stability and loyalty, this personality will be integrated into the Nirvana system.

Out of the need for renewal and adaptation to the times, the newly integrated personality will occupy one-third of the dominance in Nirvana to ensure the stability of the system.

Integrating into the personality is not always possible, and the time limit set by Hades must be reached, for which Hades designed two hourglasses that are twisted together, and only the hourglass can be updated.

The unstable timekeeping for this hourglass has complex equations that Hades believes will not be deciphered anytime soon.

If it is not updated on time, then the Nirvana system will be automatically destroyed.

The update will ensure that the Nirvana system will closely follow the forces it serves, but it will not suddenly become extreme.

At the same time, the Nirvana system is not directly connected to the arsenal, and Hades gives the sages an iterative cipher table, and the sages need to manually build the corresponding signal converters according to the chronology.

Similar to the Nirvana system, it is actually a double plug, but the base of the weapon system is a three-plug one, and the sages need to build a converter themselves and convert it to the past in the physical world.

If there is a rampage...... The sages can physically unplug your line at any time, or wait for the docking password to automatically iterate to the new generation, and the original converter will fail.

And if the Nirvana system starts trying to figure out the docking password on its own, the destruction code left by Hades will be activated as soon as possible.

Hades thought to himself, the current capacity of Nirvana is still too small, and twenty-two personalities can't even bear the planning and calculation of a planet, this is just a preliminary attempt...... People have plenty of time to wait and try and error, or destroy it.

When the Emperor's solution arrives, Hades will ask again if it is feasible.

But in fact, Hades made the Nirvana system, but he also had a plan for a pessimistic future-

If he is really trapped in the maelstrom, a system with high computing power is necessary in the absence of manpower and supplies, and although everything seems to be getting better now, Hades can clearly see that the psionics in the team are dying - which is not a good thing, since most of these psionics are navigators.

He had to find another way out.

But here's the good news...... Maybe one day when Hades really felt that he was going to be the earth overlord in the maelstrom for a lifetime, the Charon he had been thinking about finally returned.

The good news is that Machado didn't come, and the even better news is-

A huge shadow in the sky slowly loomed, and Hades opened his mouth wide in disbelief.

The graceful hull, slightly thinner than the Queen of Glory, was quietly hovering above the sky, and the huge adamantite ramming horns were shimmering with a dim and low-key light, and the whole thing was submerged in darkness.

Several tall and pointed black stone towers arched over the ship, and the steel pipes that had to be exposed were lit up in a cold silver-gray color, except for the construction needs, and the main hull was paved in black.

The shrill High Gothic shone in the bow of the ship, shrill and frivolous—

[My friend, death is not a bad thing. 】

Below is the name of the ship, Cokutes.

Kokutes, which means river of lamentation, is so cold that sinners shed tears and fell into the River Styx, and this river of tears flowed slowly.

Anglon, who was standing next to Hades, laughed and patted Hades's shoulder armor,

[Brother, this is too dark, I can see that you like to be low-key? 】

But when they walked on the boat together, Angelon chose to retract his assessment.

————————————

Expressionless, Hades decided to solder himself into the floor and never come out.

Compared with the low-key style of the sages of Faos, in terms of decoration style, the sages of Just are obviously a little more noisy.

Those sages really built a river on a boat named Styx.

There was no light in Hades' eyes, and he stared at the river that flowed quietly at his feet, and he was sure that the liquid flowing in it was not water, but ...... Blood.

The river ran through the main body of the ship, and as they walked along it, they could pass through a long corridor of Adamantite keels and then the main hall, where Charon and Blackfa were waiting for their masters.

Hades wanted to cover his face, but he held back.

The wide staircase that occupies a third of the main hall rises upwards, with the river flowing on either side, and the scarlet velvet carpet is laid out in the center, and the top is naturally the throne that belongs to the king alone.

The pitch-black throne is composed of a cold geometry with a symmetrical aesthetic, with understated luxury of pale green and scarlet diamonds set from the bottom, and the higher it goes, the more sparse it becomes, and finally the complete darkness dominates.

Behind the throne, a fresco of countless gemstones, a man stands alone among the treacherous waves, his scythe held high, and the calm darkness breaks under his feet, separating the chaotic waves on either side.

The waves are entirely made of precious stones, confusing the human eye, but the darkness is completely filled with black stone, unpretentious.

The statues of the three three-headed dogs of hell stand on both sides of the throne, one standing, one lying and one sitting, with different expressions, and the ruby eyes shine with a cold light.

In other parts of the hall, there are also elaborate and ornate frescoes.

The style is quite similar to the prosperous and extravagant style of Mars and other sanctuaries.

Hades felt like he was about to lose his breath, and he noticed Angelon's silent gaze behind him.

What's even more important to Hades is that Charon and Blackfa are standing on both sides of the steps at the moment, just making way for Hades to climb the steps.

The two looked at each other as if they were gesturing for Hades to step up, so they could get down to business.

Hades imagined the picture for a moment, and he could feel the suffocating embarrassment - maybe the sages wanted a picture of ten thousand people bowing down, no, he Hades would never sit on it.

Hades doesn't like the nostrils to look at people, which reminds him of some kind of feudal emperor, or some arrogant boss.

Hades swallowed,

"Charon, time is pressing, and I want you to tell me about the Emperor's plans as soon as possible."

After the previous baptism, Charon will no longer show some unnecessary emotions, which is a good thing.

Hades watched as Charon walked towards him, his hands slowly closing a wooden box.

The box was engraved with countless golden inscriptions, and violent psionic energy fluctuated on it, and it seemed impossible to open it at all, Hades skillfully reached out his hand, and he unleashed the black domain, devouring the excess psionic energy.

The lock is open.

Hades hesitated, he briefly thought about whether the emperor would give him a scare, and finally Hades decided to open it.

Nothing new, he saw a phalange.

But...... There is something strange about this phalanx, it is not placed in the center, but lies quietly in the middle and upper part of the box.

An eerie sense of familiarity.

Hades silently, silently reached out his hand, as if to confirm which phalanx it was.

Hovering over the box, Hades slowly made a classic gesture, just in the right position, and at the moment when he made the gesture, a burst of golden light lit up, and a simple gesture was traced at the bottom of the box.

That's right, the emperor sent the first section of his right middle finger this time.

Behind Hades, Anglon, who had witnessed the entire nouveau riche decoration style, finally couldn't help but speak,

[Hades, what does that gesture mean?] What is he trying to express? 】

Hades didn't even twist his head, his hand pulled back precisely, silently pushing Anglombie's middle finger back.

"It's a ...... Gestures of approval and friendliness, but don't learn, no, don't do, Angron...... No, don't ask me why, count me in begging you. ”

Fortunately, Angelon was righteous enough, and he really didn't do it again and ask again.

This is many times better than the emperor who sent him a middle finger all the way to come over.

————————

Perhaps the only thing that made Hades happy that day was when he saw the familiar touch of Maculag blue in the nouveau riche bedroom that the sages had renovated for him.

At Kirkland's suggestion, the Great Sage took the risk to steal the monumental carpet from the sealed items of the death guard Nehades.

The Lord of Death had already found out about this, but Mortarian could only celebrate the lack of a little blue on the Endurance.

No, so you can go to bed early.
