Chapter 376 Version 20 Update
Chapter 376 2.0 Version Update
Early in the morning, in the Kane family mansion,
Duke Lis Kane, who had just come out of the oven, woke up from his bed, touched the empty bed beside him with some nostalgia, and called out the system.
Lis has indeed been much more relaxed these days. When he was out for training, Lis used meditation instead of sleep, and now he likes to hug the fragrant Lisa when he goes to bed at night.
Lis called out the system panel and checked the new system notification that just popped up.
——
[Notification of the game version update of "Shenqi"! ]
Game announcement:
Thank you for your strong support!
The game "Shenqi" has been launched for nearly nine months, and the main plot of the game version 1.0 has ended. I hope that this fantastic and exciting game experience in the Gaia world will satisfy all players!
The game version 2.0 [Total War] of "Shenqi" is about to start, so stay tuned!
(Note: At the current stage of the game, the main plots of different continents in the Gaia world are different. Players should refer to the actual area where they are located.)
Update time: 0:00 to 24:00 on July 1, 20xx
Notes: Please log off in advance and properly place the game characters to avoid losses——
Li Si looked at the new notification on the system panel and the rapidly increasing player messages below, and scratched his head.
To be honest, if the core of the plot of the 1.0 version of Fanol Continent is the war between the Kingdom of Feis and the Kingdom of Bertich, then the 2.0 version is just like the version name of [Total War], the war spreads to almost all human kingdoms on the Fanol Continent.
Unlike other continents, the power of the Church of the Gods on the Fanol Continent is very strong. Previously, the Church of the Gods mediated disputes and conflicts between many kingdoms, and it has been maintained for hundreds of years.
This allows the powerful kingdoms to suppress their ambitions, and also allows the incompetent kings to continue to exploit the people with peace of mind, live a licentious and extravagant life, and rely on the protection of the Church of the Gods.
Anyway, no matter how weak the kingdom is, those powerful kingdoms cannot rashly defy the Church of the Gods and attack them.
But now all this has been broken by the Kingdom of Feis.
But the Kingdom of Feis suddenly declared war on the Kingdom of Bertich. Even if the excuse found was true, and the Kingdom of Bertich really sent assassins to assassinate the nobles of the Kingdom of Feis, hasn't this happened many times before? The final result is that the Church of the Gods intervened and gave some compensation at most.
In the past countless years, the Church of the Gods has done this. Although there are more people who believe in the Church of the Gods, and the Fanol Continent has been peaceful and tranquil for a long time, this has also caused the relationship between human kingdoms to be like a stagnant pool of water, completely stagnant.
After the Kingdom of Feis declared war on the Kingdom of Bertich, many kingdoms were quite shocked after receiving the news, but King Morton of the Kingdom of Feis also knew that in just a few decades, the Kingdom of Feis became prosperous and strong, and became one of the most powerful human kingdoms in the eastern part of the Fanol Continent.
For a time, all the human kingdoms on the entire Fanol continent calmed down and quietly waited for the final result of this war.
Was it the punishment of the Kingdom of Feis for resisting the Church of the Gods, or...
As a result, until the capital of the Kingdom of Bertich, Huangshi City, was breached and King Bertich died, no Church of the Gods intervened. Even the Storm Church and the Ocean Goddess Church, which had a close relationship with the Kingdom of Bertich, did not make any moves. Instead, the believers of the Church of the Evil God had been stirring up trouble.
At this time, many people confirmed that the Church of the Gods had indeed changed its previous decision and no longer interfered in the chaos and wars between human kingdoms.
This also represents the arrival of a new era on the Fanol continent!
Ambitious human kingdoms have begun to accumulate strength and are ready to seize this opportunity to expand the territory of the kingdom. Some kingdoms are worried and are worried about the invasion of neighboring countries.
Of course, there are more foolish kings who are still immersed in the peace of the past, not knowing that they are about to fall into the abyss under the tide of the times.
Li Si clearly remembered that within just one month after the launch of version 2.0, dozens of wars between kingdoms broke out on Fanol Continent. The flames of war spread to the entire Fanol Continent. For a time, the entire continent was covered by the smell of gunpowder from the war. The contradictions and conflicts between human kingdoms that had been suppressed for hundreds of years were detonated in a short period of time.
Weak countries were invaded and ravaged, and powerful countries greedily demanded all land, wealth and population, and continued to strengthen themselves.
Even the Elf Kingdom in the Great Forest of Navia in the south, the Dwarf Kingdom in the Ganuo Mountains, and the wandering tribes in the vast yellow sand in the west were implicated.
The entire Fanol Continent was in a dark chaos. The only thing the Church of the Gods did during this period was to protect those helpless wandering civilians and divide people's beliefs.
Until all the kingdoms were exhausted in the war, and at this time, the [Crystal of Philips] that opened the channel to the other plane fell from outside the Gaia world, providing many forces in the Gaia world with a new way to explore and plunder profits, the war on the Fanol Continent gradually subsided.
By the way, among the many alternate dimensions opened by the [Crystal of Phillips], there are very small worlds, small worlds with an area equivalent to that of a Brilliant City, and large alternate dimensions with a vast area equivalent to half of the Fanor Continent.
Among these, most are planes that have not been discovered by many forces in the main world, especially those with rich resources and extensive products. This is equivalent to a virgin land that has not been developed yet, and it is the focus of competition that all forces are eager to get.
Of course, there are also small worlds that have been occupied by some extraordinary forces, especially the Church of the Gods and the Church of the Evil God. Basically, every force has such a small world in its hands as its own base camp or retreat.
Before the fall of the [Crystal of Phillips], the passages to these small worlds were in the hands of those forces, and they did not interfere with each other, but the space passage opened by the [Crystal of Phillips] also connected these worlds.
This has stirred up a hornet's nest. When many hostile forces discovered this problem, they naturally would not choose to turn a blind eye.
Are you kidding? If you don't seize such a good opportunity and poke the other party's anus, it would be a waste of natural resources, right?
That is, from that time on, many extraordinary forces that had no chance of success in versions 1.0 and 2.0 were suddenly involved. The protagonists of the chaos during this period were those extraordinary professionals, and even the legendary strongmen were common.
During this period, many extraordinary forces were constantly reincarnating in the process of exploring the new world to plunder resources and beliefs, poking the chrysanthemums of hostile forces, and protecting their own chrysanthemums.
Players also officially entered the vision of many extraordinary forces during this period. Because of their ability to revive, they were recruited by many extraordinary forces and invested in the exploration and competition of different planes.
Similarly, players are also happy to do this.
Because for them, this is the opening of the [World Service], because there is the [Crystal of Phillips] on every continent, and the opened space channel can also go to the same different plane, so players can meet players from other continents through this method.
The intensity of this confrontation has risen all of a sudden!
Even in later versions, the small worlds connected by the [Crystal of Phillips] are extremely important places.
One of the three [Philips Crystals] that fell on the Fanol Continent is in a hill not far from Port Danerlo.
This is why Li Si spent so much effort to win the territory of Port Danerlo.
However, these are a bit far away in the short term.
At least in the upcoming 2.0 version, the war will basically not burn to the Luo Peninsula, which means that Li Si's territory will not have to worry about facing war and conflict except for the threats from the internal and Pearl Sea.
However, it will be different in version 3.0. If Li Si does not build the territory well at that time, the pressure he will face will be great.
Not to mention gaining benefits, he may have to face the impact of those extraordinary forces at that time.
No matter how you think about it, the best way is for Li Si to break through to the legendary level himself and use the Azera floating city as a trump card.
In the final analysis, you still have strength to stand up straight.
In the Gaia world, Li Si does not want to put his future on the possible mercy of those forces and strong people.
Whoever has the bigger fist has the right to speak!
Let's take it step by step. At least now the conflict on the Fanol continent is not intense, and those legendary beings are not so active.
There is still plenty of time and space for him.
After sorting out his future plans, Li Si woke up completely, put on his clothes and went downstairs to enjoy breakfast.
Li Si had breakfast with the help of the maid Rossi, packed up and prepared to go to the First Magic Workshop to continue receiving special training from the teacher.
According to Teacher Stephens, in about a week, Li Si's current special training will be completed.
[Supernormal Domain·Storm] (First Level·88%)
[Supernormal Domain·Thunder] (First Level·89%)
[Supernormal Domain·Waves] (First Level·51%)
Now the three supernormal domains that Li Si has mastered have been greatly improved, and he has a clear idea of the direction of future efforts, which is much better than Li Si's own exploration.
It can only be said that a teacher like [Flame of Judgment] has saved Li Si a lot of detours.
"Little Li Si, come here."
Just when Li Si was about to go out, he heard Uncle Joyce's voice.
Uncle Joyce stood on the second floor and waved to Li Si.
"Okay!"
Li Si did not ask why, anyway, Uncle Joyce would not look for him if he had nothing to do.
Recently, Uncle Joyce basically stayed in the room, or instructed his disciple Ashley.
Ashley's strength has also improved quite fast. Since being accepted as a disciple by Uncle Joyce last year, she now has the strength of a high-level bronze.
Uncle Joyce seemed very satisfied with Ashley, and his attitude towards Old Jess also improved a lot. After returning, Li Si often saw Uncle Joyce teaching Ashley, and tacitly allowed Old Jess to stay aside and listen honestly.
Li Si followed Joyce to his room.
Joyce's room looked quite simple, without any luxurious decorations and arrangements, but in the tall wine cabinet against the wall, each small compartment of the wine cabinet was filled with fine wine.
Li Si only took a quick glance and recognized many top-quality wines, including James red wine, Muge wine, Taylors champagne, etc.
Li Si also noticed that the bottle of top-grade ice wine from the Kingdom of Dillon that he gave to Uncle Joyce was placed in a prominent position in the center.
"Sit down!"
Joyce pointed to the sofa in front of him and sat down.
Li Si nodded and sat down honestly opposite Joyce.
The atmosphere this time seemed different from before. Every time Uncle Joyce asked him for something, it was not so serious.
This time, Uncle Joyce did not even take out the wine glass, enjoying the wine while chatting.
Joyce looked at Li Si sitting in front of him and felt a little emotional.
He seemed to see the shadow of Brandon. He was so handsome and so high-spirited at that time.
I thought he would reach the top of the legend with Brandon and carry forward the reputation of the Kane family, but I didn't expect Brandon to be impatient.
Alas~
Joyce retracted his thoughts. It was useless to think more about the past. It was more important to seize the present.
Li Si also felt that the atmosphere around him began to become a little heavy under the influence of Joyce, and he couldn't help but smack his lips.
What situation would make Uncle Joyce so depressed?
It was the first time he saw Uncle Joyce with such a heavy expression. He had never seen it before when facing the incarnation of the Lord of All Beasts.
"Little Li Si, do you still remember your father's story?"
Joyce took a deep breath and said in a low voice.
Hmm?
Could it be that
Li Si suddenly became energetic, recalled for a while and shook his head and said:
"Uncle Joyce, except for knowing that my father's name is Brandon Kane, I don't know anything else, and no one has ever told me about it."
Li Si did not embellish too much, because his predecessor was indeed like this. Not only did he not know anything, but there was not even a portrait of the former head of the family in the mansion.
The Kane family had no other elders or branches, and Li Si was the only member of the entire family.
It was so clean that it seemed that he was deliberately avoiding this topic. Li Si had been taken care of by Joyce and the family servants since he was a child. Even if he was very curious about his father and mother, no one had ever told him about these things.
Over time, Li Si also gave up pursuing this matter.
"That's true!"
Joyce took a deep breath, looked at Li Si seriously and said:
"Are you curious why I, as a legend, would stay in the Kane family?"
"That's true, but I think you must have your considerations."
Li Si nodded and said sincerely.
To be honest, although he guessed that the Kane family's foundation was the Azera floating city, he skipped the process and knew the result directly. He knew nothing about all the processes in between.
Why did the Kane family own the floating city that sank in the sea?
Why did they have such a foundation, but on the surface they were a court viscount of the Kingdom of Fez?
Why did they hide these things from Li Si before?
Joyce looked at Li Si, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised:
"You are a smart child, I think you should have guessed a lot."
"In fact, the whole thing is very simple. Your great-grandfather Giacomo Kane is a golden warrior. He is also a senior explorer of the Mercenary Guild. He once discovered a floating city when he was exploring the secrets of the Pearl Sea."
Joyce looked at Li Si's eyes seriously and emphasized:
"A floating city that can still function normally inside!"
Sure enough!
Li Si forced himself to hide his excitement, and showed a hint of surprise and astonishment on the surface.
He is not a child anymore, and it would be unnatural to pretend to be too surprised.
Joyce said with some regret:
"To be honest, it was a miracle. Perhaps the goddess of luck favored your great-grandfather."
"The floating city created by the Netheril Magic Empire has always been the crystallization of the supreme wisdom and power of the wizards, almost equivalent to a miracle-like existence."
"Since the destruction and disappearance of the Netheril Magic Empire, the floating city has gradually disappeared over the long years. Now in the Gaia world, except for the two floating cities in normal operation on the Ethan continent, all other known floating cities have completely collapsed, leaving only ruins."
"There may be floating cities hidden in other places, but they are all in the hands of those extraordinary forces."
"An ownerless floating city, a floating city that is still operating inside, its value can be imagined."
Li Si also nodded. He knew that what Uncle Joyce said was correct, and even had some reservations.
He knew very well that the two floating cities on the Ethan continent belonged to the Pan-Continental Magic Association, which was the most important core of the association, and did not belong to a single person.
The Pan-Continental Magic Association is a powerful supernatural force that belongs only to mages. It welcomes all mages to join. Its power spreads across several continents. Among them, there are more than ten known legendary mages. In the Gaia world, it is even stronger than many divine churches.
Of course, many legendary mages are just nominal members of the Pan-Continental Magic Association. They are more like cooperative relationships than subordinate relationships with the association.
For example, my teacher [Flame of Judgment] Stephens is a member of the Pan-Continental Magic Association.
Even such a big force has only owned two floating cities for countless years.
Therefore, when the Azera floating city appeared, legendary mages could not resist greed and wanted to come and rob it.
To be honest, after learning some information, Li Si thought that Joyce and Lisa alone could not defend the floating city. It is very likely that Teacher Stephens also secretly took action.
The joy in Li Si's heart suddenly faded a little, and he inexplicably felt some pressure.
But it's not big!
At most, I will wait until I break through and become a legend before letting the floating city appear in the world. I don't believe that I, Lisa, Uncle Joyce, and the possible help of Teacher Stephens can't protect a floating city!
