There are many factors that go into maintaining a force's success.

A wise leader, an atmosphere of common hatred, and a stable and desirable order.

But these factors, while important, are not necessary, and as long as one condition is met, the force will continue to exist for a long time.

That's absolute power.

The smiling Xin Ke stood quietly beside Roland and said in a voice as crisp as a yellow warbler.

"From now on, the Forest Elite Alliance will be officially incorporated into the scope of the Elkia Grand Alliance, and everything from military strength to specific governance will be determined by you."

"It's the same with the Goblin Alliance."

Perhaps because of his complicated feelings, Ronnie did not use his eloquent qualities as usual, but echoed the words of his old enemy in a rather silent manner.

The reason is also very simple.

At such a time, no amount of astonishing wisdom can be used.

In front of an enemy who can wipe out oneself with a single blow, resisting is like a joke.

Even the Creator agreed to this condition, which is an irrefutable righteousness for the goblin species, so there are no opponents at all.

Although it is inevitable that the goblin race and the forest elf race will make this decision on behalf of other allied races, whether it is the arrogant dragon spirit race or the dead-eyed giant race, they all acquiesce to this fact as a step.

Conformity, Mu Qiang, the instinct in biology at this moment has nothing to do with racial differences.

In today's atmosphere of war, they have no other choice, and if they want to remain neutral among the only two forces, they need skills.

In addition, the enemy is a war weapon that has exterminated many races, and the Elkia Grand Alliance, which is willing to accept foreign races, is the best object to rely on.

If you don't want to be like the previous human race, you will be almost wiped out by an inexplicable stray bullet, and the races that want to survive can only become a member of the Grand Alliance according to Roland's will.

After a simple transfer of power and the oath of allegiance from the rest of the races, the leaders of many races left with mixed emotions and were busy preparing for the merger that followed, even Gypril.

For a while, although it collapsed a lot, but it was still very empty, there was only one figure left who was looking at Roland with complicated eyes.

"Can you tell me why? It didn't take away all of my essence and still kept me conscious. ”

Okan asked earnestly.

If he didn't get the answer to this question, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to rest at ease in the days to come.

"Before I answer your question......"

Roland looked sideways at Okan and thought for a moment.

"Okan, what do you think is the reason why I took you and the essence of Kainas?"

"In order not to cause chaos in your battle with Artexiu...... and the use of our essence as a trick. ”

Okan replied without hesitation.

Maybe thinking from common sense, in order to obtain more benefits, or become stronger, it is more in line with the answer, but for Okan, who has forged even the essence of the gods to the extreme, he can easily perceive the quality of the material, and faintly perceive the essence of the depths.

He could sense that Roland himself seemed to value their essence more than other gods, but he couldn't figure out a reason to support this assertion.

For other people's divine essence, there is only a distinction between strong and weak after devouring, and there is no other way to use it.

Because the essence of the gods is only a container that supports the concept, not the concept itself, once the container is broken, it will return to the embrace of the universe, and it is better to swallow it directly than to use it as a treasure or prop.

"That's right, in fact, the latter is much more important to me than the former."

Roland nodded and explained.

"That's why I'm willing to take the risk of letting you go, taking most of your essence away, but still keeping a part of it that keeps you from falling asleep, because, even with the two concepts of nature and forging, the importance of a helper when I forge the void is unquestionable."

"The Void?"

It was a term that Okan had never heard of, no, it was too absolute, if it was the embers of the time and space that broke down, he knew it very well, but the meaning of Roland's mouth obviously had nothing to do with it.

"This is my usual expression, and in this world I call it the spiritual garment, in a word, the material that embodies the human mind in the form of an arm."

Armed minds.

This is an unfamiliar term for the gods born with the concept in mind.

However, although this is a blind spot, after the human race showed the spiritual costume, although the basic theory of Okan cannot be reproduced in a short time, if you are willing to study it carefully, it is not impossible to make a fake.

It's just that this act has no meaning other than satisfying his curiosity, so he put it on hold for the time being.

As a superior race, the goblin race doesn't need this kind of thing to elevate itself, and even more so for Okan, in the sense that he doesn't even have the conditions to be able to materialize his mind.

Born from the concept, they are originally one spirit and flesh, and with the deepening of the development of power, this characteristic will also be reflected in their families, such as the magic of the Heavenly Wing Species and the ore of the Goblin Species, and the Forest Essence Species created by a guy like Cainas who does not learn or know how to do it still has a difference between soul and flesh and blood.

Roland's essence is obviously also a state of unity of spirit and flesh, how to forge a non-existent substance from a perfect thing?

If someone else said this, Okan would definitely scoff at him and perfunctory the other party at will, but instead of defeating him and going to challenge Altexiu later, Roland would not be allowed not to take it seriously.

"I know what you're trying to ask, it's just that the method of forging the void does work for me."

Roland shrugged, his eyes flashing slightly.

Theoretically speaking, the existence of the void is only much more difficult if it still has the space to be drawn out when he has just obtained the physical body through the third method.

But under the dual fusion of the apocalyptic virus and apostolization, this path should be completely sealed.

Even if excess mass is added out of thin air, it will be quickly assimilated, such as made in heaven, and after the ritual is over, that stand-in will be integrated into Roland's true nature.

Because the law of forming an infallible origin in the spirit, soul, and body is the source of the power of Roland's perpetual motion machine.

If there is a contradiction, it means imperfection, which will cause the person of the perpetual motion machine to produce paradoxes.

But after the return month, Roland was surprised to find that the reality of this paradox was steadily appearing in his body.

- The Killer Queen.

This stand-in that has evolved with Roland many times, even if it has been able to modify the reality after merging with him, as long as he wants to, he can still show it in the posture of a stand-in.

But in a state that is closely related to himself, but not separated, the person of the perpetual motion machine held by Roland has not been affected in any way.

It's as if ......

"Paradox, if you really can't understand it, you should think it's a paradox that transcends my existence."

Roland smiled and said something that made Okan fall off his jaw.

From an outsider's point of view, Roland would probably think that this is the only explanation.

The ritual of ascension to heaven for the Queen of Killers is a paradox that allows the root of the pluralistic standard to be called a paradox, and it is only natural to ignore the perpetual motion personality.

Because this level of infinity is not qualified to touch the paradox of porcelain, Roland has personally experienced what kind of {reason} the stand-in at the end of the ritual holds, and knows the enormous potential it contains.

"All in all, its existence will give me infinite possibilities beyond Artexiu."

In the background through the roots, with the Key of All Souls as the carrier, the borrowed power, that part of the power carried beyond the heavens greatly increased Roland's vision.

The Principle of Eternal Calamity, the power of playing with the stars at your fingertips, the mind that can understand everything in the universe, and ...... It was as if just moving the body would shatter the universe.

The fact that Mora, who had already incarnated as a cosmic phenomenon, was directly defeated in that force that was not fully deployed, and obediently became a part of Roland, is enough to prove the feasibility and potential of this method.

Although this change was slightly beyond Roland's expectations, he had never regretted letting the Killer Queen on the road to heaven, and he was satisfied with what he had now compared to an illusory alternative future.

It's just that considering that not all worlds will have a mother as kind as Shizuki, who contributes an abundant timeline to burn himself, Roland can only use the void way to realize it.

Part of his purpose in developing the spiritual costume was for this purpose.

Although that incomparably powerful realm made him instinctively want to repeat it again, it was not the best option from both an intellectual and intuitive point of view.

"Rather than dwelling on the specific consequences, it is better to hold the power in front of you."

Roland said lightly, subconsciously pursed his lips and looked at Okan.

"So, God of Forging, what is your answer?"

"Hoo ......"

Okan took a deep breath, his eyes were bright, this god species who had always had a bit of transcendent temperament before, and his face was already full of strong longing at this moment.

"Needless to say! If everything you say is true, then it will be worth more than Altexiu...... No, more precious than the world itself! ”

Because of his excitement, a hot white mist appeared on Okan's head, as if there would be a gush of magma in the next moment.

As a species of gods whose goal is to forge the world, Okan has spent his life in pursuit of more valuable materials, and this is where he judges other things.

Even if it's just a start, being able to participate in such a process is tantamount to a step to the sky for him.

"Very good," Roland, who had received a satisfactory answer, smiled slightly, "According to the current experiment, with you and the essence of Cainas as the main body, coupled with the cooperation of the Elkia Grand Alliance, it should not be a problem to forge my void." ”

"But don't be careless about it, I'll let someone cooperate with you later, you can study the nature of the divine essence and how to trigger the formation of the void power."

Roland raised his head and looked leisurely into the sky, feeling the breath in the fantasy city, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"If it goes well

- Maybe you can catch Artexiu off guard. ”

——

After confirming some policies, Roland left Harden Fell directly with Jebriel.

Although the current Elkia Grand Alliance is in ruins, the main problem is the arrangement of the new races.

Although Cainas disappeared completely, to be honest, even if he didn't care about things, it wouldn't have much short-term impact on the forest spirits, and Xinke, who had long made the race into a hall of words, easily handled these affairs.

According to her, it seems that after ignoring the presence of Kainas, even the efficiency of work has increased several times.

As for the goblin species, Okan's surrender also allowed this dangerous period to pass smoothly.

With most of the other party's divine essence in his hands, and with the remaining divine essence, the safety device that can make him sleep with just a thought, coupled with the particularity of his own void, Roland is not worried about Okan not working hard.

Anyway, Okan is just a tool man, and the main force when he really forges is himself.

However, leaving the alliance straight away is not because Roland is not lazy, but because there are more important things waiting for him.

"Huby."

He whispered to the girl who followed him.

While Hughby is still unsure if she's got the heart, Gypril pats her chest and assures Roland that she's perfect.

Roland, who knew that Gypril would not joke about such things, did not ask her to explore concrete evidence, after all, mystery is also part of the fun.

But......

The two were flying almost side by side, but as far as Roland's feeling was concerned, Hughby seemed to be completely attached to his body, and he could bury his head in the arms of the plane with just a tilt of his head.

Is this level of closeness considered a heart?

Roland was a little reluctant to speak.

“Master？”

Hearing Roland's words, Hughby also blinked, and looked at Roland with red pupils as if they were wet, although the tone was very flat, but judging from the fact that answering questions no longer had that cold mechanical sense, Gibriel's words were not nonsense.

"It's nothing," feeling the soft emotion in Huby's pupils, Roland immediately changed the question, "The headquarters of the machine is just ahead." ”

"Yes, Huby has been warned by the Connector, and at the current rate, in half a minute, we will be attacked."

"Hmph...... The Ji Kai species that didn't get the heart was really a ball of scrap metal that didn't know how to change, and it was clear that the information that other races had joined forces had already spread all over these continents. ”

Gypril said with some indignation, and his gaze became dangerous.

"It's also a lot of fun," because knowing that Ji Kai is such a character, Roland's reaction is much smaller. "Isn't the Jikai race a race on the continent that is famous for its ability to learn? In that case, let me teach them a lesson. ”

Looking at the huge machinery like a mountain in the distance, the corners of his mouth hooked up a hideous smile.

"The weak never have the right to choose, only the fate of being chosen."
