Realizing they were no longer viable, the Emperor decisively took action to maximize their benefits.
They reclaimed all the buildings on their territory, gave all the remaining population and resources to Liuzi, and then charged into the position where the Holy Monarch had retreated, using their last bit of strength to inflict final damage to the enemy.
Their dazzling mana spread in the air, and the Emperor self-destructed into a brilliant firework, bursting above the enemy’s position.
Watching this firework, Liuzi felt a tightening in his chest.
He knew that this was a task programmed into every AI, and he understood it was a move made by the AI to maximize benefits.
But an emotionless program had somehow produced a 100° temperature, making Liuzi feel that the AI in this game was really too human.
There was no time to mourn the loss of this ally, as Liuzi knew he was next.
The longer the delay, the more disadvantageous the situation became.
In order not to let the sacrifice of his ally be in vain, Liuzi promptly converted all resources into military power and launched an attack towards the Holy Monarch’s position.
It was an extremely frustrating war. His forces were four times that of the enemy, and his technology and merit far surpassed the enemy’s, yet he just couldn’t pinpoint the enemy’s main force.
The enemy seemed to have Heavenly Eye, repeatedly breaking through his encirclement and using their racial advantages to constantly plunder surrounding resources, becoming stronger as the war dragged on.
In the thirty-fifth round of the game, Liuzi was surprised to find that he had been surrounded instead.
Continuously guerrilla-warfaring, the Holy Monarch finally broke through, turning their troops into seasoned soldiers, whose strong combat will and abilities forced Liuzi to sacrifice four of his own units to eliminate just one of the enemy’s, posing a huge challenge to his economy.
Moreover, the enemy’s encirclement tactic was equally excellent; his territory steadily dwindled under their erosion, and he could only reluctantly type out “GG.”
After being captured, Liuzi did not choose to end the game, but continued to play.
Because he felt that this game might still have some plot left.

Indeed, after he surrendered, the Holy Monarch did not execute him but invited him to his capital.
In the spacious reception hall, Liuzi once again saw the leader on the other side.
Inviting Liuzi to sit down, the Holy Monarch opened the game’s statistics feature, then said to Liuzi, “Your performance at the start was excellent, but there were serious problems when it came to supporting your allies. Here, your best choice would have been to fight alongside your ally, not hide in the back.”
“I wasn’t hiding!” Liuzi immediately shouted, “That was a tactical retreat.”
Raising a hand to quiet Liuzi, the Holy Monarch said, “Whatever your reasons, strategically, you were avoiding battle. I’m not wrong, am I?”
“…No.”
“Good. You should know that I am a very powerful Commander, a wargaming genius, a natural-born leader, a master of blitzkrieg, so you should observe every one of my actions, not just hope for a miracle.”
With each title the other read off, Liuzi’s frown deepened.
Afterward, he raised his hand and asked, “Where do you find the time to become such an all-around genius?”
“What you see before you,” the Holy Monarch replied with a smile, “is an old soul who has lived for five hundred years. Plus, I am a Cultivator, whose computational power has been greatly enhanced. I am now, you could say, the most perfect version of myself.”
“I see, that explains why you are so strong. The game emphasizes that we should fill in the role of gods. So, why have you called for me? Just to give me a lesson?”
“Indeed, just to give you a lesson,” the Holy Monarch nodded, “You’re very talented, and I like you, so I’ve decided to teach you everything I know. Don’t worry, it won’t take much time. The wars here can give you rapid experience accumulation, and some lessons can only be learned from the enemy.”
“Um, I might not be able to learn,” Liuzi said.
“You will. And I believe you’ll come to enjoy this art,” the Holy Monarch assured.
Looking at the enthusiastic Holy Monarch, Liuzi felt that the updated AI was a bit odd.
But the other side was really good at teaching!
With the guidance, Liuzi found “Immortal Road” to be more complicated than imagined.
Every action had to take many things into consideration, and these were the differences between a Holy Monarch and an Emperor. To advance his gameplay, he had to think through every step.
It was like playing chess; masters have such computational power that they can foresee the next dozen moves, often determining the winner before the game even starts.
After the Emperor analyzed the battle, Liuzi felt he had gained a lot and immediately restarted a new game, only to be flattened by the Holy Monarch again.
After the game ended, he was once again coached by the Holy Monarch.
Pointing to the process, the Holy Monarch said with satisfaction, “Not bad, you did better than I anticipated. You now know the characteristics of your race and how to use them, but you can still keep going. In the mid-game, you were too fixated on a particular God. If you had switched, you could have achieved even better results.”
“Let’s skip that,” Liuzi said sheepishly, “If I really did that, it would be quite difficult to appease a certain someone.”
