The Raven Maharaja stands in the throne room of the Wasteland Prison.

In front of the massive arch-like floor-to-ceiling windows, he looked out at the wasteland that had changed dramatically.

Previously, when he was picking up the banished angels of heaven, Merlin asked the architects of the Cult of the Mechanicus to go to the void world to "observe and investigate", trying to inject some artistic beauty into these mechanical heads.

But the smart machine...

Sure enough, it's a group of guys who can only imitate and lack innovation.

After returning from the Void World, the mechanical engineers who had completed the "wind gathering" remodeled the mechanical buildings of the Wasteland Hell from beginning to end.

But Merlin could see the familiar traces in the towers full of arcs, and in the rings around them.

Those guys are completely copying the mechanical city built by the angels of that world to the wasteland prison.

This made the Raven Lord very dissatisfied.

But for the fledgling intelligent civilization, he couldn't ask for more.

And looking down from the angle of the throne room, the entire ash plain, those replanned mechanical cities are also full of neat order, those towering curved towers, and specially opened water tanks around the city.

It's beautiful and spectacular.

Except for the fact that the wasteland hell has no sunlight and cannot reflect a beautiful circle of light from the several nearby mechanical cities, the entire wasteland is already as magnificent as the kingdom of mechanical gods.

And the warriors of the intelligent machines who patrolled the city, wearing heavy robes, also added a touch of cold majesty to this mechanical divine kingdom.

That's enough to deter any newcomer to the area.

"Not bad."

Merlin said something without a word, making the glasses lady standing behind him a little confused.

But on this serious occasion, even though Icarus and Merlin's personal relationship was already close to the point of negative distance, she did not rush to ask.

Behind the raven, at the large round table made of silver metal, all the members of the entire small group of children of hell were once again gathered.

Even the representative of the remaining world, the Red Devil Asazzo, as the messenger, sat in his own seat.

It was a meeting of the children of hell.

It was clear that Merlin was going to say something important at this meeting.

The white light lit up in the throne room, like a door to the unknown, and Ciri, who was wearing a white unisex suit and stepping on high heels, hurriedly rushed out of the light.

As a result, the next moment, at the round table, the eyes of all the members of the Children of Hell fell on her.

Late for the first meeting...

It's embarrassing.

Ciria's face flushed, she folded her hands on her abdomen, leaned slightly to all those who looked at her, and said:

"Sorry, I'm late, there's something urgent to deal with over there."

"Take a seat."

Merlin didn't care.

He turned and said a word to Ciri, who had straightened his collar and sat down in a chair beside the border queen Liana.

At the moment when she sat down, Liana, who was wearing a tight black robe and makeup, suddenly whispered to Ciri:

"It's a mess over there in 2077, isn't it?"

"You seem to have an urgent matter to attend to every time... Do you want me to do you a favor, you open the door to that era, and I'll send an army of hell over to help you solve all your troubles at once. ”

"You're thinking beautiful."

Heary pursed her lips and shook her red and swollen arm, and she said:

"In that era of demons dancing wildly, it was not a place for your demons to run rampant, even if I was not careful, I would be seriously injured by a group of inconspicuous killers."

"In the year 2077, you'd never guess what crazy stuff the guy across the other side would pull out of his pocket..."

"Are you done whispering?"

Merlin's voice rang in the ears of Ciri and Liana, and the Raven Maharaja said with interest:

"If you don't finish speaking, you can wait a little longer, after all, ladies come first."

"Poof"

As soon as Merlin's ridicule was finished, she was playing with the bone scepter in her hand, and she was dressed in a more revealing Satana, exuding a stronger aura of temptation and depravity. Hellstorm burst out laughing.

Merlin, this guy, is getting more and more harmful.

"Alright, no kidding."

Raven stood at the center of the round table, looked around, and then spoke:

"The infinite formula in my hand is configured, I'll take it after the meeting is over, and judging by my testing of the potion, it will put me into a deep sleep for a while."

"That's why I'm calling you here at this time."

Merlin didn't hide anything, he bluntly said:

"We've been dormant for a while, we've been keeping a low profile, and I promised you that this lurking won't be too long."

"I can tell you that all the gears are in position, and when I wake up, we can move in the open."

Merlin's words made Liana, Damon, and Satana immediately raise their eyebrows.

As the three of them as the Great Lords of Hell, they have understood the implication of Merlin's words, which means that after he wakes up from the slumber brought about by the infinite formula, their small group will officially join the battle for the kings of hell.

This made all three of them look eager to try.

And Johnny, the evil ghost rider sitting next to Damon, also clenched his hands under the table into fists.

He knew that soon, the grudge between him and Mephistopheles would be completely resolved, which made Johnny, who had been fusing with the vengeful spirit in his body for some time, feel happy.

A faint blue flame also lit up in Johnny's eyes, although it was only a fleeting moment, it represented the progress of the fusion of Johnny and the spirit of revenge, which was very satisfying.

"I'm going to have something to arrange before I take that potion."

Merlin knocked on the table and said to everyone on his team:

"First of all, the news itself must be kept secret, and once it is leaked, the Lords of Hell, who are currently diverted from their attention, will definitely not let us have a good time, this is the first point."

Raven Says:

"I'm sure you all understand the importance of this, and I don't need to go into too much detail."

"Don't worry."

Damon, who has become more and more silent since becoming the Lord of Hell. Hellstorm nodded to Merlin, and he said:

"I'll take care of the secrecy."

"Hmm."

Merlin bowed slightly, and he said:

"And then there's the second thing, the heroes of the living world have formed a team, and they are dealing with the crisis brought about by the power of the phoenix, and I am optimistic about the prospects of their actions, but we can't let our guard down."

"This event may bring about additional changes, and if unfortunately it has a ripple effect in this world, causing an imbalance in the situation that is still in balance."

"I mean, if the Lord of Hell takes advantage of the chaos to invade the world, you have to find a way to intervene as well."

"Conflicts between multiple parties will definitely break out in the future, but I hope that the timing of the conflict is in our hands, and that is very important."

"And then there's the third thing."

Merlin paused, he looked at Ciri, and he said:

"At the end of the meeting, Ciri is responsible for collecting the blood of everyone present and sending it to Florence in 1495, and if my infinite formula is in effect and works well, then the production of other infinite formulas will be on the agenda."

"I have a question!"

Ciri raised her hand and interrupted Merlin's speech, she looked at the secretary behind Merlin, and said:

"Icarus doesn't have blood, what should she do?"

"It doesn't matter."

Merlin waved his hand and replied:

"She is not the product of genetic experiments with the Celestials, and the infinite formula is not valid for Icarus."

Ciri nodded, she had no problem.

"Any questions? Ladies and gentlemen. ”

Merlin looked at the brothers and sisters in front of him, and the small organization that used to be used for warmth has begun to emerge, which makes Merlin also feel a sense of pride.

In an emotional tone, he said to the others:

"We established the Children of Hell to look good for those old men, and now we have finally come to this point, and with our own power, we can already stand on our own stage."

"We may not be able to change the chaos of Hell forever, but we can at least start an era ourselves... Belong to our time! ”

"We will use our actions to tell the old men who once saw us as victims and pawns, to tell them that times have changed!"

Merlin put his hands on the edge of the silver round table, and his eyes were filled with an aggressive light, and he said:

"We have entered the legend that everyone yearns for, and we will eventually become a myth that will be praised by all worlds!"

"Accept all this with an open heart, and go and prepare, brothers!"

"We have everything we want."

Merlin stretched out his hand to the man in front of him, and all the children of hell stood up in unison at this moment, one palm after another on Merlin's palm, those fingers intertwined and entwined, and finally clenched into an indestructible fist.

It roars to shatter the present and shape the future.

No one doubts this, not even the weakest Asazzo, that the children of hell have the power to change this world, no, they have changed it.

They have something that the other masters of hell don't have!

The throne of the King of Hell will also belong to them!

"I advise you to hurry up and take a vacation..."

Merlin felt the warmth and strength in the hands of his brothers and sisters, and with a smile, he said to everyone in front of him:

"This is the last time to spare, I hope you are in the best shape to meet the challenge, and then we will be very busy and busy, and at that time, who will fall behind because of too much pressure... We're going to abandon him or her without mercy..."

"I'm not kidding~"

"Hahaha"

Hearty and heroic laughter resounded and echoed in the throne room, like the sound of a funeral at the end of the previous era, or like the closed door of the next era being slowly pushed open.

Times, after all, have changed.

-------------------

After the meeting adjourned, underneath the throne room, on a stone platform surrounded by magma from Mount Doom.

Merlin, dressed in a black robe, sat on the edge of the stone platform, stripped of all ornaments, and even the Book of Ravens and Judas the Blade, which never left him, were unraveled.

Holding a crystal bottle filled with golden liquid in his hand, he said to Icarus, who was standing in front of him:

"Icarus will leave it to you, Icarus."

"Hmm!"

The beautiful blue long-haired Mecha nodded, she pushed her black-rimmed glasses, and she said softly to Merlin:

"Sleep in peace, I'll take care of you."

"Take care of them for me."

Merlin said to the glasses, then looked up and drank the liquid from the crystal bottle.

With the throbbing of his throat, the golden light ran through the raven's veins, like a web of intertwining, rapidly extending towards his body, and wherever the liquid went, the heavy magic of the raven's body was stimulated.

In this empty lava lake, streams of water came from nowhere, like the rolling tide of the sea, and the sound of a giant beast swallowing water echoed strangely.

Merlin took a deep breath, he lay on the stone platform, and closed his eyes.

A few seconds later, his consciousness was immersed in the sea of spirit in the mysterious invocation, and the fingers holding the crystal bottle were loosened little by little, and the crystal bottle fell into the magma on the edge of the stone platform, splashing and dancing sparks.

Seeing Merlin fall into a deep slumber, and watching the Raven Maharaja's breath slip all the way from his Heavenly Father to finally converge, Icarus breathed a sigh of relief.

She took a step back, reached out and flicked it gently, and with the sound of mechanical bridges, the precise mechanical version of the Sword of Victory of the Oath jumped into her hand.

Icarus stood in front of Merlin's sleeping stone platform like a sword-wielding guard, her eyes fixed ahead, and the passage to the volcanic cavern rapidly fell to the heavy mechanical gates.

Armed with a mechanical greatsword, the mechanical warrior Scourge guards the cave with five mechanical beasts, and the wingless ones are also under the command of Angela and Serra, and the mechanical armor is re-donned, and the weapons are guarded on the edge of the Doomsday Volcano.

At the moment when the ravens slept, the entire wasteland was discarded with the camouflage of warmth, revealing the indifference and majesty of a war machine.

In the Cult of Mechanica's shared psychic network, Icarus said to his daughter:

"Alicia, activate the 'Skynet' highest level warning!"

"The wasteland will immediately enter a state of war, all divine creations will enter the pre-release mode, activate all legions, activate all defensive and counterattack facilities, and close the gates of hell!"

"Anyone who dares to approach the wasteland at this time, kill!"
