Soul of Burning Steel

Of course, Joshua will definitely not be among the legendary powerhouses responsible for resolving and handling these conflicts.

When it comes to internal affairs, he only has one way to deal with them, and that is to bombard and kill those who cause trouble—just like when the cultists were rampant and the five-color dragon clan planned and conspired, he could happily run over and eliminate these troublemakers. The makers do it physically, and once they're done with these guys, the trouble is gone.

But this kind of internal affairs... He is a pure-bred combatant with no management skills at all, so there is no point in forcibly blending in.

Joshua believes that it is enough for him to tell other legendary powerhouses that "the turmoil encountered so far is likely to be a sign of the appearance of an unknown evil god". The problem is not his job. With his ability, at most he will help the people in the disaster-stricken areas in the far south to build some houses, and go to the eastern plains to deal with the pollution in the most polluted areas.

But this kind of help should not be too much. After all, even if he builds all the cities and solves all the pollution, it is meaningless... Although the Mycroft civilization is a civilization of extraordinary people, if this civilization itself is The problem that can be solved must be dealt with by a legendary strong man who can almost be regarded as outside the theory, then the development of this civilization itself must be deformed and cannot last long.

A strong man can overturn life and death, and reverse fate. Such a strong man can naturally lead civilization forward, but if everything in civilization is handed over to the strong man, then civilization is parasitic on the strong man.

Joshua can help Israel and Nostradamus to directly manufacture a large-scale void battleship production line within a month, and can build an industrial base on the West Panther Plateau, but that is because the empire originally With technical reserves, his help is equivalent to speeding up the production process.

But if he really went to help the Far South Kingdom with infrastructure construction, to help clean up pollution in the eastern plains, and forcibly subdue the conflict between the old and new nobles and commoners in the northern empire, then it would not be speeding up, but backfire, and waste food because of choking... probably That's what I mean.

He doesn't want to do that.

Joshua knew that if he took the initiative to solve the problem directly, the source of the problem would not be improved in the slightest. The royal family in the Far South would still be an ostrich, and the homes of the refugees would still not receive attention and opportunities to build. It will not solve the emission problem. After a few months, what should be polluted will still be polluted. Treating the symptoms but not the root cause is what we are talking about.

Unlike real enemies who can be dealt with with fists, although this kind of problem can be assisted by force, it cannot be solved entirely by force and extraordinary power. The world of Mycroft is on the eve of the development of primitive industry and the civilization of extraordinary mana. 'In the middle of this era, whether it is this era, the world or the entire civilization, it takes time to adapt, and the fundamental system and social structure need to be reformed.

Of course, this kind of statement is actually wrong-the soldier felt that if he found the body of the unknown evil god and killed him, the current anxious situation might be much better.

It is true that force cannot solve system problems, but it can solve the existence of intensified contradictions.

"In short, there is no point in thinking too much."

Saying this to himself, Joshua bid farewell to the old Pope. He did not teleport away directly, but walked out of the gate of the temple, preparing to see the situation of the royal family in the far south being besieged.

As he walked, he couldn't help shaking his head: "The other legendary powerhouses are much stronger than me in terms of internal affairs. They will definitely be able to solve this small crisis."

After all, I come from the world of Great Harmony after the Third World War. Except for the war, I naturally don’t know what is going on with the contradictions of this system, and other legends, as strong people who grew up in the extraordinary world, should be able to handle it well and strength of assistance.

Thinking of this, he could vaguely hear loud slogans coming from the square in front of the palace complex not far away.

Joshua walked towards the square.

In the center of the capital city of the Far South Kingdom is the "Prince of the First Kings Square" in front of the inner city of the royal palace. A 50-meter-high, lifelike statue of the king stands in the center of the square riding a war horse. Thirty-two national alchemists in the kingdom jointly shaped it. When necessary, the statue of the former king can be activated with the help of the magic circle, crossing the boundary between life and death, and continue to protect his people.

It is the most conspicuous landmark building in the entire capital, the pride of all Wangdu people.

But now, under the tall statue guarding the kingdom, there is a poorly dressed, even tattered team, led by several people who seem to be wearing noble clothes, charging towards the inner city gate outside the royal palace. go.

The guards at the palace gate neither dared to disperse the crowd, nor dared to open the gate, so they could only act as if they hadn't seen it, and let this civilian team attack the city gate—anyway, as long as the superhumans don't make a move, it is impossible for ordinary people to break through this self-powered gate in their lifetime. Repaired magic gate. And the leading nobles didn't seem to intend to really rush to the gate. They just used these civilians as a symbol of the "royal family's immorality" and a tool to destroy the majesty of the royal family, so they let these angry people vent their anger and smashed the inner city gate.

The high-level officials of the Far South Kingdom, whether it is the royal family or those nobles who intend to reform, or even the lords of the Thirteen Dominions, may not really care about the thoughts of these ordinary people, but just use the angry them as a tool to achieve their goals.

Today is this team, and tomorrow is another one. I am tired from venting in the morning, and there are refugees from other places at noon and evening. Anyway, there will always be no shortage of people.

From a distance, Joshua noticed that these refugees were in poor health.

This is of course - the hometown of these refugees is the place where the craziest dragon disease ravaged the most. Even if the dragon disease did not kill them, a large number of people, dragon corpses piled up, and the plague caused by rotting and fermenting brought extremely heavy consequences. This is why the cultists chose the Far South as the place where diseases such as black blood disease spread. It is really a fertile ground for diseases to multiply.

In addition, because there is no warm, waterproof, or even windproof house, it is also very important. After the Dragon War, the original town has long been in ruins, and there are not even ruins. There are no professional construction talents among the survivors, and there is no assistance or subsidies from the state. In a few years, there is no way for everyone to live in normal houses.

The crowd that stormed the palace was very chaotic and noisy, and there was even a stampede accident, and even the riots expanded, and some people even started to harass other pedestrians passing by the square.

Seeing this scene, Joshua couldn't help shaking his head again, and sighed.

Without speaking, he just raised his hand from a distance, setting off a gust of wind.

The sudden gust of wind did not blow the crowd to one side or the other - on the contrary, the impact of the gust of wind immediately regulated the formation of the attacking team and brought the chaotic team back to order. There was even some steel force in the gust of wind , to restore health to all the refugees who were suffering from diseases and even difficulty in moving, and also calmed their brains that were originally full of anger and resentment a little bit.

Legendary powerhouses, at least have the strength to be able to do this.

The sudden and mysterious gust of wind immediately quieted the entire team, including the leading nobles and the royal family guarding the city gates, all looked around in shock, looking for who was responsible for all this.

But at this time, Joshua had already left Far South.

"Speaking of which, at the end of the Era of Glory, the sudden civil strife among the gods...is really similar to now."

In the sky, Joshua's avatar was gradually dissipating into a silver light spot all over the sky, and just before dissipating, he couldn't help but think of the cause of the disappearance for three hundred years, the "Civil War of the Gods" that caused the final and complete extinction of the glorious civilization .

Although it looks very different, in fact, the hidden problems were detonated, the contradictions suppressed by the sages were rekindled, and the gods began to regard each other as old enemies-everything is a natural development. Then the disputes escalated, which led to civil strife and fighting, and the entire civilization perished in the most unimaginable, most natural, and most stupid way.

Just like those self-destructive demons he found in the abyss before.

And what happened in the far south, what happened in the eastern plains and the interior of the empire are actually exactly the same as what happened to the demons of the abyss.

It was supposed to be a guess that would make people feel chills, but at this moment, Joshua could not feel any shake. Even just a few tens of seconds ago, he was still mourning for witnessing the group of angry refugees with no clothes on. The same goes for sighing.

Joshua's expression was solemn amidst the flying spots of steel power, which meant that he was really serious and prepared to use his own method to try to solve this problem.

At this moment, the soldier had only one thought in his mind.

"It seems that we must go to the 'bottom of the abyss'."

If there is any place in the galaxy in the entire world where evil gods may be born, the so-called land of nirvana in the abyss is undoubtedly the most likely place.
