Chapter 411 7.65 Forward Traveler
The master sat quietly in the throne room in the center of the castle.
He stroked the skin that had just been transferred to his body. This was his disguise in this life.
Yes, he was Edward Plantagenet, the King of France, nicknamed "Long Legs".
**
To be fair, he was not completely unprepared for what was happening in front of him at this moment.
In his 200 million years of life, the "master" witnessed the rise and fall of seventeen rounds of civilization on this planet.
After each round of civilization completely dissipated, it would go through a period of life reshaping lasting hundreds of thousands of years. However, once life is created, it is extremely difficult to erase. The creatures that survived the ashes of the world destruction will always find an opportunity to rise again in the destruction.
Round after round of new life will build a new civilization in the ruins.
The master had seen them send powerful creations to the void, had seen them open portals, and had seen them take up arms and bravely resist life from outside the earth.
However, the mission of the lizard people remained the same.
In the long life of 200 million years, the "clan leader" and 12 "clan masters" have only one goal - to lead the tribe to survive.
To this end, they evolved to be able to wear the scales of other creatures, and can control the voice and extract some memories of the host.
There is only one ultimate secret of this starry sky.
Live,
until everyone else dies.
**
In the long life of 200 million years, in 17 rounds of different civilizations, it is not the first time that the clan leader has encountered "reverse travelers" who were transported by chaotic time and space.
In fact, human civilization has already recorded many records of travelers. Each of them who came to this strange land would think that they were the son of destiny and were destined to change the rules of the world.
The most famous one among them was Wang Mang (BC45-AD23), the founding emperor of the Xin Dynasty of the East Continent 800 years ago.
He was the most radical of all travelers.
After coming, the founding emperor of the new dynasty seized the imperial power by usurping the throne. Afterwards, he reformed the currency, abolished serfs, developed banks, futures, built a tax bureau, and even set up a department that had never appeared before, the "Wujunsi Shishi", to be responsible for all matters such as assessing prices, regulating the market, handling credit loans, and collecting taxes.
(Note: Wang Mang is likely to have traveled back from the Xin Dynasty. Because all the functions of this "Wujunsichangsi" are exactly the same as the "Development and Reform Commission" of our Tianchao.)
It is impossible for a mortal born and raised in 45 BC to understand so many reform plans.
In terms of power, he was decisive and took the throne through bloody usurpation. But then, he helped the world, completely abolished the serf system, did not hesitate to offend the princes and nobles, banned the sale of land, and improved the state ownership of land.
Unfortunately, the rule of the Xin Dynasty only lasted 15 years and then disappeared.
This is a typical time traveler.
After coming to another world, he used the knowledge in his mind that did not exist in the world to try to transform this world and make all his subordinates operate according to the social rules set in his mind.
However, such people, without exception, were all backfired by their subordinates.
Loki is different from them.
Born in the cold and poor Scandinavian Peninsula, as a time traveler, his start was not good.
It can even be described as "quite difficult".
Most of the time travelers with the same resources as him would not even survive until adulthood and would die tragically in various accidents.
However, he survived miraculously.
To be honest, he is not a very talented person chosen by heaven.
Like most time travelers, he has made many mistakes. He did not believe in gods and tried to rely solely on science and technology and advanced production systems to change his fate.
However, all of this ended with the appearance of old Walder.
Since Walder brought him into the "Water City", a certain primitive power in his body was activated. He began to release his primitive desire for killing, embraced his pirate identity, and expanded his power without any bottom line.
To some extent, it was the Illuminati that created such a demon for itself.
Among all the travelers that the suzerain had faced, Loki was the one who dealt him the heaviest blow.
He was so well integrated with this plane.
He had completely regarded himself as a native pirate lord, and almost abandoned all the auras of a traveler. And now, his goal is to uproot the Illuminati from the Western Continent.
I have to say that he did a good job.
**
The "suzerain" must control the number of vassals entering the palace.
Because he is actually the only living person in the Grand Palais in Paris.
In this huge royal manor covering hundreds of hectares of battlefield, 95% of the courtyards and pavilions are empty, with only his carefully arranged bewitching magic array.
The so-called "Gorse Family" is just a cover-up set by the suzerain of the Western Continent of the Illuminati.
This secret is completely unknown even to many internal members of the Illuminati.
The master protected himself very well. He had to do this because he had ruled this land for thousands of years!
Unlike Loki who traveled through time in reverse.
Mutu, the "King of Earthsea" with a lifespan of 200 million years, is a "forward traveler".
He hid in the civilization that ruled the earth for 17 rounds, like a cockroach in the cracks, and survived tenaciously.
During these long years, the Lizardmen and Leviathans hid at the edge of the world, watching the rulers of the earth transform the planet one after another.
Some of them came from outside the nine heavens, and quickly adapted to the environment after falling into this planet.
Some were born and raised here, evolving from inconspicuous four-clawed creatures to the top of the food chain, surviving round after round of alien gods coming, and finally dominating this planet.
Of course, there were also hundreds of different extraterrestrial life forms that landed on this planet at the same time, setting off a long war that lasted for 100,000 years. In the end, the powerful gods died one after another, and the survivors quickly lost interest in this planet.
Instead, the inconspicuous followers survived.
After the era when giants and dragons ruled this planet, humans, a tiny group, finally ushered in their own spring.
The Lizardmen smelled the smell of opportunity.
They successfully mixed into the crowd and established an organization called the "Illuminati", secretly controlling the direction of human civilization.
Mutu's home court is in the Western Continent. The North Continent, the East Continent, and the East-West Continental Bridge are managed by other "suzerains", so he doesn't need to worry about them.
He only needs to take care of his own home ground.
According to his observations of the first 16 rounds of civilization, humans must first be "enlightened" before they can know etiquette.
Only by knowing etiquette can one understand gratitude and awe.
Most "reverse travelers" have survived two lives, and at most three lives.
But Mutu has survived 17 rounds of civilization! Whether in terms of knowledge, qualifications, or brain storage, he is far superior to all the characters of this era, even most of the outer gods.
130 years ago, when he was still wearing the skin of "Charlemagne Carolingian", he launched a Renaissance movement.
He used the wealth he had accumulated for hundreds of years.
He knew that this movement that was extremely inconsistent with the times would immediately expose his identity, so after his success, the Carolingian dynasty declined rapidly,
replaced by another skin and another surname.
The secret that he has ruled this continent for thousands of years is unknown to the 12 masters, even the peripheral members of the Illuminati.
But today this secret is about to be broken by Loki.
He has no way.
Because of this enemy, he can only use the Grand Palais in Paris, which he has built for thousands of years, to solve it.
This is his home court.
Standing here, he has no possibility of failure.
