"Whoo~"
After ending King Itra's life, Isaac breathed a long sigh of relief. From then on, their plan was no longer hindered. With Philona's massive military force, they could conquer the entire Kingdom of Itra in a month at most.
However, this does not mean that Philo can breathe a sigh of relief, because there are no more enemies within the entire Kingdom of Itra. This special war will soon come to an end, and they must collect more sacrifices and gain actual control of Itra before the war ends.
But the latter is Philo's mission, and has nothing to do with Isaac.
His main task is to collect more sacrifices. This is also being done on Philo's side. There is a barrier covering the entire Etra. Anyone who dies inside or is a homunculus will become Isaac's sacrifice.
Of course, King Etra is an exception. He is a very good research subject for Isaac, but he cannot be sacrificed to the billions of flesh and blood lords, at least not now.
Anyway, we already have enough offerings, so one more won't make a difference.
After collecting King Etra's body, Isaac paused for a moment, then summoned a gale, which propelled him swiftly toward the military camp.
The treasure that Etra used to create androids is right there. Once Isaac gets his hands on it, he can create androids himself without having to deliberately create a stalemate as planned in order to continuously acquire them.
Some things are better kept in your own hands; it's better to have them than to have them yourself.
Moreover, according to Filo's intelligence, the creation speed of that treasure is fast enough, and Itra has also prepared enough materials, so the next step is to race against time!
If nothing unexpected happens, their purpose has already been discovered by the group of wizards monitoring them outside, and they should soon announce the end of the war.
However, Isaac and his group have not yet obtained Etra's treasury, which contains things that other forces need, so they should have some time to maneuver!
'Lord Mensa, you must hold on!'
Thinking it over, Isaac sped up again, heading towards the military camp.
On the other hand, just as Isaac had thought, once Isaac actually killed King Etra, they already knew about Isaac and his group, or rather, the Terra Empire's plans!
None of those who become wizards are fools. Although high IQ does not necessarily mean high EQ, the leading high wizards are not lacking in political acumen. After all, those who are not would not be sent to handle matters here.
The frustrating thing is that although they knew about the Terran Empire's plans, they were powerless to do anything about it, because, just as Isaac had thought, they had already made a deal with Mensa and even signed a contract...
Of course, they could end the war now and then directly divide up the Kingdom of Etra. Although it would feel like a loss, it would be better than having the entire Kingdom of Terra taken over.
but……
Besides the Terra Empire, there is another factor they need to consider – Isaac!
Yes, this was something Isaac hadn't anticipated. In fact, the one who truly determined when this war would end was himself!
Because in the recent battle with King Etra, Isaac had already shown terrifying potential, and what's even more terrifying is that he had joined the Cult of Flesh and Blood!
This means that unless Isaac is killed by the evil god in the evil god's trading ritual in the future, he will definitely grow stronger!
The four high-ranking wizards present did not raise any objections to this.
So they'll give Isaac face and allow him enough time to collect the offerings, which is also giving face to the Lord of Billions of Flesh and Blood...
Yes, this war has reached a point where it can no longer be stopped simply by them calling for it to end. They can clearly sense that the billions of flesh and blood lords have been awakened from their slumber by Isaac's ritual and have taken notice of the massive offerings here.
At this moment, His gaze was fixed intently on this place. If they dared to end the war without authorization, they dared not even imagine what the billions of flesh-and-blood lords, who were already grumpy when they woke up, might do...
Of course, this is the mortal world after all. Even dimensional demons can only exert extremely limited power in the mortal world. Paying a price is not impossible to defeat billions of flesh and blood lords.
but……
Why must we always have to pay a price?
Why not just give Isaac a little time to finish collecting the offerings?
Since I've already lost a lot, I don't mind losing a little more.
Yeah, I don't mind at all!
The other three high wizards watched Isaac's actions on the light screen with dark faces, and occasionally glared at Mensa.
However, compared to the other three, Mensa was in a much better mood. Isaac and his team had done an excellent job, and even if the war ended now, the Kingdom of Etra would be theirs for the taking.
Because the Terra Empire's army and powerful warriors had been quietly waiting on the sidelines, and once the war was declared over, they would go in to help Philo occupy the remaining territory.
However, judging from the current situation, Isaac has accomplished his mission far better than he had anticipated...
Mensa looked at Isaac on the screen and couldn't help but sigh. It was a pity. Princess Philo's previous reckless behavior had offended him. Although the conflict had been resolved through royal mediation, there was probably no hope of taking the marriage further...
Of course, on the other hand, if there really were such a possibility, neither he nor the royal family would agree to it, since both of them were mad witches...
That's insane!
……
Kingdom of Itra
Isaac was very fast, and the military camp itself was not far from the capital, so he quickly arrived at the camp. At this time, the military camp was under martial law, and a bright blue magical barrier was raised throughout the camp.
only……
Looking at the soldiers in disarray in the camp, Isaac shook his head inwardly. This country was truly rotten from top to bottom.
He didn't try to persuade him to surrender; he didn't have the time for that now. He simply silently extended his right hand, and the light of magic began to shine. The next moment...
Like shooting stars, magic cannons rained down on the military camp one after another!
Ripples spread across the magic barrier, but these ripples only lasted a moment. Soon, the magic barrier, which was solely supported by magical artifacts, was blasted apart by Isaac's continuous magic cannon fire.
Without the magical barrier to stop it, Isaac's magic cannon fell straight into the camp, and amidst the cries of agony, the fire caused by the explosion gradually spread throughout the camp.
However, just like the magical barrier, the wailing sounds that filled the ground did not last long and soon disappeared as Isaac's magic cannon washed over the ground.
After confirming that there were no survivors in the military camp, Isaac slowly descended from the sky and walked through a patch of scorched earth.
Soon, Isaac arrived at the heart of the military camp without much trouble.
Firstly, this wasn't the first time the Kingdom of Itra had done this business. Over this long period, their vigilance had long been worn down. The small treasure vault in the military camp wasn't particularly well hidden to begin with; at most, it was only protected by some protective barriers.
Secondly... the entire military camp was ravaged by Isaac's magic cannon, and now apart from this treasure vault, there's nothing left but scorched earth. It would be hard not to find it.
Standing before the treasure vault, Isaac once again marveled at how incredibly wealthy Kunbaitla was!
Because this little treasure trove was actually made entirely of refined gold!
Judging from the magic power it exudes, it looks quite thick!
Moreover, in addition to the material, it is even covered with a triple magical barrier!
They all come from the treasures within the barrier!
"Damn, Philo's really struck it rich..." While feeling a bit emotional, Isaac also felt a bit choked up. Although he would definitely get a share of these things later, his share was insignificant. The key point was that Philo got some too!
After calming his chaotic emotions, Isaac shook his head, a glint of light flashing in his eyes. He activated his [Analysis] power, and soon, information about breaking the barrier appeared in Isaac's mind.
Breaking this kind of barrier, which is simply activated and maintained by a treasure, is too easy. Even without the [Analysis] ability, Isaac could break it with a little time.
The strength of a magical barrier can vary greatly depending on whether it is controlled or not, even if it is created by the same magical artifact.
Following the information in his mind, Isaac dispelled the barriers one by one, lifted the adamantite door, and walked down with his head down.
Upon entering the underground area, the first thing that catches the eye is a small plaza where three thousand androids stand, all with their eyes closed, indicating that they are in an inactive state.
After a quick glance, Harmon emerged from behind Isaac's head, his slender claws waving lightly, unleashing sharp wind blades that swept towards the androids, easily severing their heads and ending their lives.
Then, under the influence of the barrier, it transformed into wisps of blood-red mist and flew into the sky.
Isaac didn't pay much attention to the androids. While Harmon was making his move, he quickly went to a crystal ball in the middle of the small square, examined it carefully, and then smiled with satisfaction.
This is what he's after—Francis's Life Derivation Technique!
For Isaac, this thing is the most important thing right now, even more important than his goal for this trip—the Kaleidoscope Eye.
Fortunately, I got it.
After confirming that the crystal ball was what he was looking for, Isaac immediately checked its usage conditions and how many more androids it could produce.
Soon, Isaac, who had placed his right hand on the crystal ball, showed a strange expression, because this thing...
There were no usage conditions set!
In other words, whoever gets it now can use it...
The Etra royal family really... deserved to die...
However, joy followed, and what made Isaac even happier was that it contained a lot of energy, enough to create another million androids!
one million!
Wouldn't that turn billions of flesh and blood into cream puffs?
ask for leave
My roommate dragged me to extra practice today. The good news is, it was very effective; the bad news is, I was exhausted. I rested for a bit, then played some games with him. Hmm, I've completely lost my train of thought…
I'll try to finish today's two chapters tomorrow morning and noon.
Chapter 189 Philo: You call this a bit troublesome?
Isaac was very satisfied with the share of one million androids. Combined with the more than one million he had already summoned, the total energy was more than two million, which was more than enough for Isaac to play big!
After all, in this day and age, a blood sacrifice of up to two million people...
That's pure fantasy!
Let alone two million people, even twenty thousand would be virtually impossible. Under the surveillance of the Theocracy and the Truth Association, the plan would be discovered as soon as it began and then thwarted by the two major powers working together.
This is also why the Lord of Billions of Flesh and Blood, after being forcibly awakened by Isaac's ritual, was not angry, but instead helped him strengthen the ritual—the child had been hungry for too long!
However, there is a regrettable aspect: this crystal ball is not the true life-derived magic of Francis; it is merely a projection split off from his original body.
The Liberation Army also has one, but fortunately, they share energy, so Isaac doesn't have to make another trip.
However, it's not too much of a regret. After it's over, he can borrow the original body. He's still quite interested in this thing. After all, it has the [Analysis] power. Maybe he can make a pirated copy. At the very least, he should be able to learn the spells engraved inside.
By the time……
Artificial humans will be free!
And if the android is free, then he can trade with billions of flesh and blood beings more frequently!
His own dimension thus had an ample source of nourishment!
However, those are things for the future. Right now, we need to focus on the present. Isaac casually set the crystal ball to produce automatically and then got up and walked towards a small house behind the square.
Since there was already a protective layer of adamantite at the entrance, Itra didn't take any special precautions inside; he simply built a wooden hut.
