Chapter 386: Anjou's Firewall
Chapter 386: Anjou's Firewall
The transformation surgery that Alberto was talking about was naturally not the kind that ordinary soldiers would undergo, but a specially specialized transformation surgery.
"I reject."
Cassius flatly rejected the king's request.
"Your Majesty, you should know that after undergoing transformation surgery, genetic warriors are more susceptible to the impact of the God of War's projection and are more likely to go crazy."
"But Cassius, you once said that you needed a strong-willed person to be a protective wall for the gene warriors."
Alberto seemed to have turned back into the confident king at this moment, and said, "I want to protect my warriors."
"It's the warriors who should be protecting you!"
Cassius slammed the table and stood up, a rare display of gaffe.
"Besides, I was only asking you for the right person, not asking you to be the victim!"
"This is not a sacrifice. Didn't you say that at the beginning? Becoming a member of this protective wall is very important and will take a long time, so you must consider it carefully."
Alberto continued, "After all, this protective wall can theoretically connect all the warriors. I have also read your specific research report. There is no one more suitable than me."
"Only I am fit to be the anchor of the Angevin army, and only I am qualified to command the soldiers to face the huge projection of the God of War."
When saying this, Alberto looked very proud, as if this was not self-sacrifice, but an affirmation of himself by the Angevin soldiers.
Theoretically, attacks from the real world could stop the projection of the God of War, and if powerful enough, could even destroy it directly, but now, Anjou was facing a major problem.
That is, no matter whether it is an ordinary soldier or a genetic warrior, if the mind is not firm, they will fall into madness when encountering the projection of the God of War. Therefore, any method of blocking the progress of the God of War has a prerequisite, that is, the soldiers' minds must have a firewall. It would be even better if this firewall can become an anchor point for the soldiers to stabilize their spirits.
Indeed, there is no better candidate than Alberto.
The expressions of the people present varied, but most of them were opposed.
The first to speak were those from the military:
"Your Majesty, we are now trying to resolve the crisis of national destruction, but if you fall, wouldn't Anjou be equivalent to national destruction?"
Cassius also chimed in, "That's right, Your Majesty. In the old empire, members of the royal family would not undergo this kind of surgery, let alone the ruler of a country."
Seeing that everyone was against it, Alberto shrugged and said, "Okay, then who of you can give me a solution?"
Everyone looked at each other, and Cassius clenched his fist and said, "I will go... I will go and beg Lucanus. As long as I kneel down and beg, Lucanus will always..."
Alberto shook his head. "It's too late to talk about cooperation now. Moreover, even if they really have a solution, we have to help them slow down the projection of the God of War."
"What about the dragon? Let the dragon fight against the projection of the god of war?"
Cassius was obviously a little panicked, because everyone present understood that there was no way the dragon would fight against the projection of the god of war that could make people mentally confused just by looking at it for Anjou.
Alberto raised an eyebrow: "What's wrong, Cassius, didn't you tell me that this operation was safe?"
Having said that, Alberto was actually unsure. No one had expected that the Kingdom of Anjou, which had allied with the Avars and the dragon, would suddenly be on the verge of destruction in an instant.
Both Cassius and the Northern Governor explained the mental damage that the projection of the God of War could cause to people, and that someone must serve as this mental barrier. In the words of the Northern Governor, without a "firewall", ordinary armies would simply be unable to resist the surging and huge projection of the God of War.
According to the governor next door, the damage inflicted on the projection of the God of War in the real world should be able to affect the ocean of consciousness, that is, the God of War in the Kingdom of God. In other words, as long as there is a way to stop the madness, then the human army may really be able to cause damage to the projection of the God of War.
Anjou has many prepared trump cards, but the biggest problem now is how to resist the madness.
Cassius wanted to say something else, but suddenly saw the expression on Alberto's face.
"Your Majesty, are you serious?"
"If you can find someone with a stronger mind than me, I would certainly be happy to let him become the firewall of the Angevin army. I can even make an exception and promote that person to a hero who is second to none."
Alberto tapped the table lightly and said, "I have watched the video footage of the God of War projection repeatedly. Of all the people present, I was the least affected. There is no one more suitable than me."
"Your Majesty, let me ask you again, are you sure?"
"This is my destiny."
Alberto's tone was flat. Although he was not wearing armor, Alberto felt a heavy responsibility invisibly pressing on his shoulders. He not only had to be a firewall for the soldiers, but also for the country.
If it comes to fear, then Alberto would definitely be afraid, but just like during the bloody coup, there are some things that someone has to do no matter how scary they are.
"I understand, my king."
Cassius felt his anchor for the revival of the old empire was loosening, but one anchor was becoming more stable.
"I will make you the strongest shield in this country."
At the same time, as the War God's huge body continued to struggle forward, a group of fanatics came under the War God's projection and said, "Everyone, the War God has arrived, but there are always evil forces that prevent the War God from exerting his divine power. Do you see those vines?"
The fanatics seemed to be unaffected by the power of the God of War, or rather they had been affected and had gone completely crazy, so they could face the twisted God of War head-on.
"We must destroy and burn those vines, so that the Lord God of War can unleash His true power and bring salvation to this world!"
"Long live redemption! Long live the God of War!"
There were enthusiastic shouts at the scene.
Alberto's judgment was correct. Not to mention that the God of War had already entered the territory of Anjou, even if Capet had a way to stop the God of War, it would be difficult to do so in time. There was also a group of lunatics who wanted to destroy the vines that were preventing the God of War from advancing.
Some of them were not even fanatics, but ordinary shallow believers, or even just passers-by. After being deceived by the fanatics who came for pilgrimage, they voluntarily joined the action to free the God of War.
Just as Lind mentioned in the message he sent to Alberto, the attack on the projection of the God of War in the real world will also directly affect the God of War in the ocean of consciousness, or at least stop the actions of the projection of the God of War, and in theory it can even be destroyed.
The same is true of the destruction these fanatics inflict on vines in the real world.
"Fire! Fire! Burn it!"
The most powerful high-level professionals felt their sanity values drop rapidly and almost wanted to run away just by looking at the projection of the God of War and the vines on his body that could drag the projection. However, this did not stop those lunatics who did not know anything about magic from using fire to help the God of War burn these vines.
