Chapter 267: [267] The Space Wall Surrounding the Earth, the Interstellar Civilization of the Great Qin Empire [1]
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
The [Sun God] shook his head without hesitation, "Even if all eleven of our machine gods exerted their full strength, we couldn't complete such a monumental project!"
A space wall surrounding the entire Earth? Are you joking?
The circumference of the Earth is forty thousand kilometers, and it's floating in space, at least around one hundred thousand kilometers.
The Great Wall, which has undergone repairs over hundreds or thousands of years, is only five thousand kilometers long, despite being called ten thousand miles.
The key point is.
The previous construction of the Great Wall exhausted countless laborers, leading to the tragic story of Meng Jiangnu crying over the wall.
It was one of the causes of the Qin Dynasty's downfall, a true waste of resources.
If they were to build a space wall, how would you transport the materials up there?
How would you construct and secure it in orbit?
Clearly, none of this was possible.
Even if they joined forces, they couldn't achieve such a miracle!
"Indeed impossible." The [Goddess of Wisdom] found her bold speculation somewhat amusing.
A little calculation would reveal that this would be a terrifying mythological project consuming endless resources, manpower, and incredible black technology.
To achieve this, it would require the direct intervention of a god, one that only exists in myth and legend!
The [Goddess of Wisdom] smirked, "It's highly likely a large-scale projection magic to showcase their immortal authority."
With that proud and strong-willed Qin Shi Huang, he would definitely do something like this.
The many members present revealed relaxed smiles.
It was just a clown performance.
Once the video ended, even if that Qin Shi Huang unified the strange tales globally, he would still have to submit at their feet!
Mortals are ultimately mortals!
In the video.
The people of Chaldea were engaged in related discussions.
"It's about 2000 kilometers above the Earth, completely enveloping the entire planet."
Da Vinci exclaimed in awe, "Perhaps we couldn't monitor this strange tale earlier because it was there to protect us?"
"The floating battleship fortress has been determined to belong to China's Xianyang City!" Dr. Roman, who remained in Chaldea, replied.
Mash was shocked, "Xianyang City? The capital of the eternal emperor? From an era even older than the Three Kingdoms, could he have survived for over two thousand years?"
The group from Chaldea was left in utter confusion.
The unknown figure looked up at the sky and said softly, "Is it possible that this thing guarding the heavens is the wall built by the Great Qin to fend off the Xiongnu? Let's call it the Great Wall."
"Of course, this is just a guess!"
A light remark caused all the Chaldeans and viewers to widen their eyes simultaneously.
The Great Wall?
A wall floating in the heavens, enveloping the entire Earth?
How could such a thing be created?
What enemies would it be guarding against?
Besides the strange structure enveloping the entire planet, there was also that floating battleship fortress.
This Great Qin strange tale was instantly filled with an endless veil of mystery—
-[Whoa, the Great Wall? You're telling me that thing in the sky is the wall?]
-[Xiongnu: What have we done to deserve such attention from you, Emperor?]
-[Wow, Qin Shi Huang is amazing! As long as you praise him, you're my long-lost brother!]
-[Since there's a space wall, how about considering building an elevator on Mount Everest?]
-[Goodness, they used to say the only human-made structure visible from space is the Great Wall. Were those people all prophets?]
...
In the living room.
Roya couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Could this be the true form of the Epang Palace? Not a sword of the king, but a ship of the king?"
The Epang Palace seen in reality was merely an ordinary mobile palace.
But the thing in the video was clearly a genuine weapon of war, comparable to the Council of Gods's cosmic battleships!
"Not reaching the Great Wall means you're not a true hero... I think I understand the meaning of this phrase now," Illya said, her lips twitching.
It was terrifying.
Two thousand kilometers above the Earth, the Great Wall stretches endlessly.
Who could possibly climb up there?
"Well, there have always been rumors that you can see the Great Wall from space, but that was pure nonsense; you couldn't see it at all... but now it seems you can!"
Roya's expression grew increasingly peculiar.
In space, the Great Wall is merely a thin line, invisible to the naked eye.
But in the video.
Damn, floating in space, who could miss that?
Roya furrowed her brow slightly: "It feels like this so-called structure resembles a feather, almost like a—giant moth?"
Indeed, according to the photos of space provided by Chaldea, one could vaguely see what looked like an endlessly long feather.
It perfectly complemented the massive city hovering above Xianyang, forming a pair of wings.
"It does look a bit like that..."
Souma nodded in agreement.
In his previous life, countless Masters thought the same way.
It was just too similar!
But it was also so cool that it was hard to imagine.
All the Masters could never have imagined that Nasu Kinoko and Urobuchi Gen would blow it up to such an extent.
They made it so mind-boggling!
An ancient dynasty was directly launched into space, becoming a genuine interstellar civilization.
Turning the painstakingly constructed Great Wall into a space wall wrapping around the Earth.
Before this, who the hell knew they would pull this off?
It was undoubtedly the most lively carnival for countless Masters.
Numerous fanfiction authors who had written ahead of time were left dumbfounded, staring at the space Great Wall after the official appearance of "Lostbelt of Qin."
You, a fanfiction author, wrote something that couldn't even compare to what the original authors Nasu Kinoko and Urobuchi Gen could hype up—what's the point?
Might as well tear up the book!
After all, other Lostbelts singularities were all about normal human-god battles, fighting giants and monsters.
But when it came to China, it was straight-up interstellar civilization.
Who could have imagined that?
Countless fanfiction authors watching this scene all knelt down in despair.
Blowing up the First Emperor was indeed that guy's forte!
Roya couldn't help but exclaim, "If the First Emperor is this powerful, then surely he will ensure the people live in peace and happiness forever, right?"
After all, the real First Emperor was quite a capable ruler who valued talent.
Over a hundred years ago, when China faced various foreign invasions and was on the brink of annihilation.
The First Emperor, in his heroic spirit form, swept away all foreign enemies.
He established a magnificent nation spanning continents, with a population exceeding two billion.
And created the "Dragon of Humanity," competing with the Council of Gods of the United States, safeguarding all entire China.
He perfectly fulfilled his oath from back then—
"As long as I am here, my Great Qin shall enjoy eternal peace, guarding the land and expanding its borders. If I perish, I shall transform into a dragon's soul, blessing my Yan and Huang for eternity!"
A wise ruler, just like the neighboring virtuous king, enjoying the adoration of countless people from China.
"That seems likely..."
Nameless hesitated to speak.
"Lostbelt of Qin also has another name—
[The True Nation of Human Intelligence Integration]
Just from the name, one could tell that the First Emperor's performance in the Lostbelt was not merely powerful.
There was also a dark history about to be revealed!
"I really look forward to the First Emperor's stunning performance!" Roya said excitedly.
The video continued.
The people of Chaldea had intended to move forward, but they encountered a series of terrifying monsters.
These monsters resembled large lizards but were covered in white scales.
"Prepare for battle!" Nameless commanded.
The battle erupted in an instant.
The sheer number of monsters was overwhelming, leaving everyone scrambling.
Nameless skillfully activated the summoning array:
"Your body is entrusted to my command; my fate is bound to your sword."
"Respond to the call of destiny, those who follow this will and reason, answer me!"
"I am the one who accomplishes all good deeds in the world; I am the one who embodies all evil in the world."
"Entwined by the three great words of the seven heavens."
"Cross the wheel of suppression and appear, guardian of the balance."
Buzz~
The summoning array lit up.
A familiar figure appeared, wearing a helmet and holding the infamous sword, it was none other than Mordred.
Her expression was calm, clearly not recognizing Nameless at all.
The summoning of heroic spirits draws from a certain point in their past, so it was entirely normal not to recognize Nameless.
In addition to Mordred, there was also a rather petite and adorable assassin—
Jing Ke!
Back in the day, she was requested by Prince Dan of Yan to assassinate the King of Qin, and just as she was about to succeed, she was personally stopped by Nameless.
The First Emperor ordered that she not be executed but instead forced to watch the destruction of the Yan Kingdom!
The onlookers were amused—
-[What the hell, Jing Ke, weren't you a burly man? Why did you turn into a cute girl?]
-[Heroic spirits are indeed terrifying! Da Vinci was a man in life too!]
-[I have to say, I'm so lucky! This is a true assassin; Hassan can stand aside!]
-[Bang! The bell above you just rang!]
-[Don't worry about Jing Ke; aren't you concerned about little Mordred? She clearly saw Nameless but didn't recognize him at all! Poor little Mordred!]
Watching the video, Mordred was utterly bewildered: "So, I was summoned?"
Damn, why was she summoned but didn't recognize Nameless at all?
Is having a side account really that impressive?
Back in "The Sacred Round Table Domain," she had been toyed with by him before finally recognizing him.
But this time, the summoning clearly came from a point in her past, with no memory of the singularity.
The greatest tragedy in the world is standing in front of the person you love and not recognizing them!
"You performed quite ordinarily," Artoria said calmly.
There was no way she could feel envious.
Even though she summoned a helper, it was Mordred and not her—how could she possibly be envious?
"I'm sure I'll shine brightly, just wait for me!"
Mordred couldn't help but snort.
That damn Nameless just loves seeing her while pretending not to recognize her?
The battle broke out.
With two more heroic spirits, the fight became much easier.
Nameless wasted no time projecting [Kanshou and Byakuya], their figures flashing as they charged at the monsters, directly severing their necks.
Mash swung her shield without hesitation, blocking in front of the villagers.
The battle proceeded tense and orderly.
The scene suddenly shifted.
From the originally fierce battlefield, it abruptly transitioned to the grand hall of the Epang Palace.
In the magnificently vast hall, there was no sign of the First Emperor.
Only Kiyohime and the side account Tamamo-no-Mae were present.
The First Emperor's grand voice echoed: "Hmm, are those the people from Chaldea?"
"Yes, they are the ones here to repair the Lostbelt, and they will threaten Your Majesty's rule!" Kiyohime answered earnestly.
"Heh, a mere group of scattered soldiers thinks they can overthrow my solid rule? How ridiculous!" The First Emperor did not hide his scorn.
"Do not underestimate heroic spirits! They are powerful beings summoned to protect human history!"
Kiyohime couldn't help but remind him.
After all, she could also summon heroic spirits.
In the eyes of this First Emperor, the so-called heroic spirits seemed to be completely insignificant.
"Hmm, you say Alaya is the collective consciousness of humanity? Specifically existing to protect humanity?"
The First Emperor's voice carried a hint of doubt, "I also protect humanity, safeguarding all the people of Great Qin, so do I count as this so-called Alaya?"
"How, how is that possible?"
Kiyohime was momentarily stunned, looking at him in shock.
Could it be that this extremely arrogant First Emperor wanted to transform himself into Alaya?
No, that absolutely cannot be!
"Heh, that's true; I am not just any Alaya!"
The First Emperor said mockingly, "To specifically awaken dead heroes in the form of heroic spirits and command them to fight is indeed a ridiculous thing!"
"How can there be any meaning in continuing when one cannot even maintain stability in their own world, which is full of holes?"
Just a few simple sentences revealed his proud and domineering aura.
Clearly, the heroic spirits sung of in human history were nothing but a joke in his eyes.
Kiyohime couldn't help but frown: "The problems in human history are purely due to the Demon God King Goetia causing destruction; otherwise, there would be no issues."
"Hahaha, the Demon God King Goetia? I haven't seen him; if he has the ability, let him come before me!" The First Emperor laughed heartily.
As the eternal emperor ruling the world, he did not regard the mere Demon God King at all.
At that moment.
The nearby nine-tailed fox side account Skaha smiled and said, "Your Majesty, regardless, that group from Chaldea aims to end your rule; they must be eliminated!"
"Yes, they will definitely reveal their brutal nature, threatening your rule!" Kiyohime replied as well.
"Oh, in that case, Kiyohime, you should go personally."
The First Emperor issued the command.
The so-called group from the foreign Chaldea was, to him, not an important matter at all.
The audience looked utterly bewildered—
-[So, why is Qin Shi Huang fighting Nameless?]
-[Yeah, what exactly did Qin Shi Huang do to make Nameless want to defeat him personally?]
-[This is bad! I was originally looking forward to seeing Qin Shi Huang outshine the King of Heroes, but suddenly I find him transformed into the villainous BOSS?]
-[One must admit, Qin Shi Huang is truly impressive, claiming to be Alaya, and even the Demon King looks down on him!]
