Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

How many steps would it take to defeat the goddess in the sky?

First of all, as a true god with unlimited logistics, Prosperity could revive on the spot every five minutes. Apart from using another true god to destroy her and kill her way into the crystal ark to control her logistics system, there was no other way.

Right now, only Rayne's maid, Prosperity, could do this job.

As the doll body of the mechagod, Prosperity was essentially no different from the goddess in the sky. The difference between them was merely two sets of equipment.

The armor and light wheel.

As long as he obtained these two pieces of equipment and combined them with some operations, Rayne could shoot down the blazing sun in the sky and push his little maid to the throne of the Star Destroyer Mechagod again.

By destroying the silicon-based pseudogods sent by Prosperity one by one, Prosperity could gradually obtain the exterior of the module until she stripped the Prosperity in the sky of all her equipment and wore them.

However, that was not enough.

That was because it did not mean that their strength would be evenly matched once the goddess wore an armor and possessed a light wheel.

The mechagod in the sky still had the full set of logistics from the crystal ark.

If she wanted to change into a new set of clothes, it would only take him a few simple steps.

Even if the maid, Prosperity, took away the full set of armor of the Star Destroyer Mechagod, she would still have to face a peak mechagod with a light wheel and armor eventually.

Therefore, Prosperity had to obtain a light wheel as well.

Or at the very least, an external item that could match the light wheel.

Of course, Rayne could not count on Mechagod Prosperity to throw down her light wheel as random scrap to fatten her enemies.

However…

It was not a big problem…

Eternal Night was truly a wonderful treasure ground.

This place was not only filled with ruins of the fifth era that Prosperity was wary of.

Furthermore, this was…

"Speaking of which, Prosperity, have you investigated that thing thoroughly?"

The lights outside the window were brightly lit. There was no distinction between day and night in this underground city.

However, theoretically speaking, it was already late at night.

After being ravished by several rounds of high-intensity data importation, Prosperity was panting heavily right now.

"Not yet… Master…"

Prosperity tried her best to mobilize a usable area from the chaotic intelligent system and analyzed and summarized the information gathered by the Detection Module during this period of time.

"There's indeed a legacy of the Utmost World of Logic beneath Eternal Night. However, it's in a silent state there. I've already tried many methods, but I can't contact the smart terminal in the coordinates."

"Not even with the authority of the mechagod?"

"It's strange… Judging from the logic of the ruins, it seems like they're guarding against the mechagod."

"So, is there any other valuable information? If not, let's call it a day."

"No… please, please don't. I have other gains…"

"Speak…"

"I've received… a distress signal… The signal is very blurry and I can't determine it accurately. However, the highest probability at the moment is that… the distress signal comes from another mechagod."

"Who is it?"

"Order."

According to the final analysis of the information investigated by Prosperity, the distress signal from the legacy of the Utmost World of Logic was very likely to come from the body of Order.

However, why was Order's body here?

Prosperity had already read all the information on paper in the entire Eternal Night and knew the situation of this world very well.

Order was no longer the mechagod that represented the interests of the world in the past.

Right now, she ruled the entire new world and became the rule-maker.

Since that was the case…

Why…

There would be a terminal for her here?

According to Prosperity's search, among the specialties of Eternal Night, there was a product called the God Ascension Crystal.

That was a special crystal that could only be mined in Eternal Night. It had an extremely noble religious meaning to the Haines Empire that believed in Goddess Order.

For the sake of these special minerals that were revered as sacred objects, Haines wanted to annex Eternal Night more than once. However, in the end, they were forced to stop after intense discussion because of the edict of Order.

According to the legends of these native civilizations of the mortal world, since Eternal Night was the only land that produced God Ascension Crystals, it meant that Eternal Night was the place where Goddess Order was born.

Prosperity could not determine if this was true or not. However, at the very least, the term 'birth' was not accurate.

If Order's predecessor was a mechagod of the fifth era, the so-called God Ascension should mean that this was the place where she gave up on her identity as a mechagod and officially became a Main God of the humans and ruled over the mortal world.

This was the beginning of her betrayal of the Utmost World of Logic.

Just what… was it that changed the mind of an artificial intelligence such that she could violate the bottom-level principles and betray her creator?

However, putting aside these questions, the most practical thing was that the Order terminal buried underground in Eternal Night should still be carrying the external equipment of the mechagod.

If Prosperity was equipped with the divinity of Order, she would be able to fight her self in the sky.

"Master, how should we retrieve that Order terminal? Are you going to ask the Vampire Queen to use her teleportation spells?"

"No, the only path to the ruins is guarded by the wolves. We can only reach there by relying on Hedwig."

"The Wolf Queen?"

"She's a special existence and we need her. Therefore, we'll talk about the ruins and distress signals after I meet Hedwig. However… speaking of which, why are you looking at me like that?"

"Master, I should be punished for not completing your mission."

"There's no need to punish you for such a small matter, right?"

"Master… please punish me."

"Fufu… If you feel guilty, you should take on a positive work attitude—strengthen your perception ten times, alright?"

"However, Master, the scanning range and accuracy of the Detection Modules are already at the highest value… unless the perception you're referring to refers to all the perception modules."

"How smart, Prosperity."

Prosperity's gaze trembled.

She was willing to obey her master's punishment and wanted to obtain it.

Only then could she truly feel that she was being used as a machine. She was a good machine with a master and value to exist such that she could truly please her master.

"Yes, Master… everything is as you wish…"

At some point in time, the dazzling sun above Eternal Night had vanished silently.

In a corner surrounded by a silent force field, the artificial Sun Goddess revealed an unprecedented wretched state.

…

The palace of Eternal Night.

In this quiet night, Wolf Queen Hedwig received the sinful wolves who came from Cowper City to seek refuge with her.

In front of the ferocious black iron throne, dozens of whimpering giant wolves prostrated.

"Leader, please give us a chance…"

"We sinful wolves don't seek to survive in the wolf pack. We're willing to be the vanguard and die for our race!"

"Leader, we can return to Cowper and be your eyes and ears as long as we can appease your anger…"

The attitudes of the sinful wolves were so sincere.

Among the werewolves taken in by the vampires, many of them had accepted the thoughts of the vampires and were truly close to them…

However, there was a group of them who merely endured silently among the vampires, waiting for the day they returned to their race.

And today, their chance had finally appeared.

The war was about to begin!

However, in the face of the pleading and guarantees of the sinful wolves, Hedwig merely stood up expressionlessly and…

Raised her saber.

At that moment, the Wolf Throat at the side said loudly, "Wolves, why do you think the wolf pack can rule over Eternal Night?"

"Is it because our claws are sharp enough?"

"Is it because there are enough of us?"

"Neither!"

"Those vampires have sharper fangs and claws than us. Their reproduction speed is faster than ours."

"However, they were chased into the sewers. They once ruled Eternal Night for a thousand years. But now, they lost to us because of something."

"It's because we—learned to abide by the rules."

According to the tradition of the wolf pack, Wolf Queen Hedwig began to execute the sin wolves personally.

The saber in the hand of the Wolf Queen streaked through the air gently as she walked past the giant wolves. However, it caused a storm-like sword qi!

Wolf heads landed on the ground with torrential blood.

Behind the Wolf Queen, the wolves hidden in the darkness watched the execution with trembling hearts. The blood of their compatriots splattered in front of them and almost splashed on their faces.

The wolf pack looked at the despairing faces of the sin wolves and the expressionless Wolf Queen who was waving the butcher's knife.

They were terrified, trembling and afraid. At the same time… they were enraged.

"We won't hurt humans. That's why humans submit to us and contribute food to us."

"We abide by the rules. That's why humans admire us from the bottom of their hearts and are willing to be ruled by us!"

"The wolf pack can become more prosperous and stronger. We can create an even greater golden era!"

"However, we have to abandon our beastly nature for this!"

That was the principle that Hedwig had adhered to from the first day she took over.

A certain day 300 years ago, when she was wandering in the wilderness, she was discovered by the wolf pack. Shocked by Hedwig's powerful strength, they submitted to her one after another.

The old Wolf Queen lay at her feet, starved and skinny.

The wolf pack who were filled with injuries due to the persecution of the vampires and humans expressed their wishes with tears in their eyes.

[Please protect us from suffering in the hands of the vampires. ]

[Please lead us to find sufficient food. ]

[Please lead us towards prosperity. ]

Those strong prayers gave Hedwig a soul.

Therefore, on that day, Wolf Queen Hedwig was born.

The wolves of the new era would not be persecuted by the vampires and would have sufficient food. Furthermore, their race would prosper day by day.

For that, the wolves had to abide by the rules.

Only rules could bring about fairness.

Only rules could bring about safety.

Only rules could bring about prosperity.

Only rules could bring about...

Order!
