Above The Sky-Chapter 1744 - 341: In Short, Victory!

At this moment, Ian’s desire to rant was about to overflow—are the Star Gods insane? Why are they so grand, righteous, democratic, objective, and morally high-minded? If cheating is not allowed, doesn’t that make it too difficult!

But soon, Ian calmed down, even feeling a sense of relief in his heart.

—Haha, at least others can’t cheat either. Looking at pure strength, who among you can defeat me?!

In terms of raw strength and competing for public opinion, Ian is absolutely not afraid of anyone... Huai Guang might face some difficulties, but Huai Guang is his ally. As long as he talks more with the Huai Guang Swarm, getting them to secure votes from the faithful shouldn’t be too difficult to surpass half.

The high standard of the Star Gods is truly a good thing for Ian and the ordinary people on the Tella Continent.

Not to mention, when Ian releases the news about the Perpetual Motion Machine, essentially all the slightly rational strong individuals across the Whole Terra won’t dare to arbitrarily affect the civilians, let alone oppress and massacre them.

Because as long as they, even their ’supervisors,’ want to gain the power of the Perpetual Motion Machine, they must take good care of all ordinary people.

Those ordinary people who died due to their evil rule, their neglect, and contempt will definitely not vote for them. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

This is order.

The order of the Star Gods.

The power of the Star Gods, even a small fragment or a little toy left on a planet, can establish its own order... The little legacy they leave behind, as long as it appears at the right time, can foster an opportunity for post-apocalyptic civilization on Terra to finally advance towards a ’unified order’!

Yes, the last opportunity.

Ian can imagine that in the future, when everyone is striving for votes for the Perpetual Motion Machine, this land will welcome an unprecedented golden age—the strong will compete, will fight, and there will even be wars, but they will not indiscriminately affect the civilians.

Actions like those from Fiery Flame Land, where ordinary people are casually slaughtered to replenish the Demon Legion, have fundamentally severed the possibility for Fiery Flame Land to be supported by the conquered side and will never appear again.

As such, a nation like Canaan Moore, which creates Eternal Elves and elevates the entire population, will instead garner the support of the public.

All the forces across Whole Terra, under the temptation of the Perpetual Motion Machine, are turning from ruinous comparison to positive competition!

This is the power of order... the mere existence of an advanced civilization built on order can influence the future of numerous smaller civilizations.

Moreover... Ian still has an advantage.

"The dead also count, right?"

Ian thought of his Artificial Underworld with a thoughtful expression, then smiled: "On this land, apart from me, only the Duke of Solin can offer Underworld services."

"And that pessimistic territorial creator, Duke of Solin, cannot possibly compete with me... Ha, it seems I need to discuss the progress of the Underworld turning into Paradise with Adalbert as well!"

While other forces on Terra can only pull votes from the living, Ian is already capable of acquiring votes from the dead!

In one word, win!

"Thank you very much."

Ian saluted the Terra Dragon: "I have completely understood your advice and guidance."

[Do you truly understand?]

The Terra Dragon said with some concern: [You are too smart, Prophet, so people like you always want to circumvent the rules... But what you don’t understand is, the rules actually protect you.]

[Don’t even mention it, if the Perpetual Motion Machine doesn’t follow the order of the Star Gods.]

Speaking thus, the dragon shook its head: [Its unconsciously emitted energy would be enough to transform the entire Cradle, unlike its current state of only gently increasing the concentration of Origin Quality, supplying the energy needed for ’thousands of intelligent species in the program.’]

Ha. Ian thought, indeed, the concentration of Origin Quality on Terra is likely a thousand times that of a normal planet, at least several hundred times, no wonder it’s so distorted.

Ordinary Sublimators are manageable, but the higher the Power Level, the more terrifying the pressure... After all, it’s theoretically a thousand times higher pressure.

"I understand."

On the surface, Ian seriously replied: "I will use my strength to gain the agreement of all humans—but before that, I must first seize other permissions."

[Hmm... this is probably the last chance for our Terra too.]

The Terra Dragon gazed seriously at the Prophet before him. It is the Terra Dragon, the stellar guardian that has accompanied Terra for thousands of years, long a part of Terra.

Witnessing Terra’s decline to its present situation, the Terra Dragon is more sorrowful than anyone else... but that is unavoidable; it can only accept.

However, if this Prophet before him truly publicizes the existence of the Perpetual Motion Machine and ultimately succeeds in restarting the Cradle Plan...

Then at least, before greeting ’The End,’ all Terra People will be restored to their original prosperity and harmony.

Thus, even if the conclusion is extinction, oblivion... it would be better than surviving in the ruins of the apocalypse as they do now.

[I have fulfilled your wish]

Speaking thus, the ancient True Dragon slowly closed its eyes: [From now on, it’s all up to you.]

Right now, Ian still had many questions in his heart.

For instance, does Axel’s ongoing research on the ’Floating City Network’ and ’Human Souls’ relate to possible vote manipulation for the Perpetual Motion Machine?

And the conjecture Ian has always had: that the Floating City serves as a sanctuary to ensure the survival of the Imperial People, while the Emperor himself releases the Thousand-Star Beast to cleanse everything...
