Chapter 68, Part 1: "Do you believe in the Halflings or the church leaders?"
When Xia Xifeng came back, he happened to see a good harvest.
After gaining a lot of experience, Xia Xifeng put all the remaining skill points into agriculture.
Qin Lang was responsible for planning the construction of high walls, while Xia Xifeng was responsible for storing grain.
Xia Xifeng changed his plan to make money.
He had originally thought there were at least five years left. Now, he didn't know when the local gods and the foreign gods would clashed, and ensuring survival after the apocalypse became the top priority.
He couldn't save the world, but the people in his city must not starve to death.
Can you do it? Xia Xifeng didn't know. Just do your best.
All the originally planned economic crops were temporarily postponed, and Xia Xifeng focused on cultivating new crops such as various starch crops, that is, staple food crops.
Xia Xifeng used up a lot of rare materials when buffing Singer.
When Singer compensated Xia Xifeng, Xia Xifeng asked to exchange all the rare materials for grains from all over the place, as much as possible.
After upgrading his skills, Xia Xifeng can open up "Four Seasons Field" and grow anything.
Although the special fields are small in area, they are very suitable for cultivating high-quality varieties.
Xia Xifeng wrote the plan and submitted it to Singer after Qin Lang polished it.
Lying on the hospital bed, Singer discussed the details of the plan with Xia Xifeng and Qin Lang, and decided that before the doomsday broke out, while the free port could still trade with foreign countries, he would do his best to search for grain seeds from all over the country for Xia Xifeng and establish a "grain seed bank" in the City of Hope.
Singh also contacted temples related to plants and farming, such as the Harvest and Forest Temple, in the name of the Pope of the Temple of Poseidon, hoping that they could pray to the gods and jointly establish a "plant seed bank" as soon as possible like Xia Xifeng did, so as to restore the world's vegetation ecology after the war of gods ended.
If possible, Xia Xifeng also advocates preserving animal "genes".
However, preserving animal "genes" is much more difficult than preserving plant seeds, and animals in fantasy worlds always have some strange characteristics. It also involves some religious and political issues, so I will not mention this for now and just do what I can do at the moment.
Even though the Temple of Poseidon suffered heavy damage, the faith in the Temple of Poseidon still exists.
With the full support of the Temple of Poseidon and Atlantis, the trade routes from Freeport to the three major countries fully guarantee Xia Xifeng's needs.
Of course, the obvious pressure was borne by Amuruo.
Amuruo: Yes, it was all my request and I did it.
The Free Alliance is usually very loose and there is a lot of friction among them.
When Amuruo made the request, the open and secret struggles in the various towns of the Free Alliance immediately quieted down and they fully cooperated with "Amuruo City Lord's request."
Everyone knows that the Free Alliance, a "free land" that is not under the jurisdiction of the three major countries, relies entirely on Amuruo as a backer.
They relied not only on Amuruo's military strength, but also on Amuruo's foresight.
Anyone who can become the lord of a city in a desolate place may be a bad person, but he is not a fool.
A fool cannot survive in the wilderness.
Amuruo rarely took the initiative to take the lead in anything. When he decided to take the stage, all members of the Freedom Alliance felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
War of gods.
These two words were engraved in their hearts, making it difficult for them to breathe.
Many of the records in ancient books from thousands of years ago have become unreliable myths, but the few remaining words can also give people a glimpse into the painful struggles of mortals in the war between gods and spirits.
Loose alliances integrate autonomously, and broken trade routes are connected at all costs.
These trade routes may be the way to rescue after the outbreak of the war between gods.
The monarchs of the three major countries felt depressed when they saw this scene.
Although they have always been wary of the Free Alliance and Amuruo, they also despise the fragmented Free Alliance.
When Amuruo only issued an order and still did not even acknowledge his identity as the "leader of the Free Alliance", the Free Alliance quickly moved towards a unified regime. Only then did they realize that Amuruo and the Free Alliance could really be on equal footing with them at any time.
Could it be that Amuruo wants to take advantage of this war between gods to establish the fourth great country?
The monarch hinted at Amuruo.
Amuruo said impatiently: "The world is about to end, what are you still fighting for? First consider not becoming the king of a fallen country."
The monarchs of the three great countries blushed, and even the Elf Emperor, who prided himself on being the most cultured, almost broke down.
Amuruo reminded the Elf Emperor, who was almost losing his composure, "If the world is severely damaged, the World Tree will surely become a target of public criticism. Protect the World Tree."
The Elf Emperor said arrogantly, "The Elf Empire and the World Tree are never afraid of any challenge."
Amuruo rolled his eyes in front of the Elf Emperor: "I know, the World Tree will probably die because of you."
The Elf Emperor's elegant shell completely collapsed. He pointed at Amuruo and cursed him, saying that he wanted to fight Amuruo to the death.
Amuruo blocked out the Elf Emperor's voice and said to the Human Emperor, "Hasn't the Silver Moon Church's affairs been dealt with yet?"
Hearing Amuruo's impolite words, the human emperor wanted to put on airs, but unfortunately, this human emperor was a very gentle and kind person.
Although the word "gentle and kind" sounds strange when applied to an emperor, the human empire has experienced many peaceful transfers of the throne, and the world is so peaceful that an emperor with a gentle personality can also sit firmly on the throne.
"Rest and recuperation" may be a good thing for a huge empire.
But the human emperor never expected that he, who wanted to lie down for the rest of his life, would actually run into a war between gods?
How come the God War started again after only a thousand years? It should have been at least ten thousand years!
Although the human emperor had many conspiracies in secret, he could not bring himself to confront Amuruo head-on when talking to him face to face.
When Amuruo asked him a question as if from a higher power, he answered honestly, "The gods have appeared, and the empire's influence on the church has weakened. I have done my best to save the Silver Moon believers who were deemed heretics by the Silver Moon Temple and sent them to the Silver Moon Holy City."
Amuruo rolled his eyes again: "Now we can't suppress the Silver Moon Temple that has surrendered to the evil god, and you will probably suffer heavy losses. Be prepared."
The Human Emperor: "..." If he could defeat him, he would definitely...
Amuruo turned his gaze to the Dwarf King again.
The dwarf king sat up straight.
Amuruo said, "The Dwarf Kingdom has done quite well. They've attacked the Dwarf Kingdom once, and they'll surely do so many more times. Be sure to contact your Ancestral God and the God of Craftsmen at all times. From now on, the Dwarf Kingdom may be the primary provider of tools and weapons for the entire world. You're under tremendous pressure."
The Dwarf King couldn't help but feel proud: "No problem! Leave it to me."
When the meeting was over, the Dwarf King slapped his thick thigh and became angry.
What am I so proud of? It seems like I am very happy to receive the praise from Amuruo.
Doesn't my reaction put me in a position of inferiority to Amuruo?
The monarchs of the three major countries were so angry that they could not sleep at night.
Especially the Elf Emperor who was silenced. He was so angry that he ignored the possibility of severe mental damage and used the royal secret technique to send his soul deep into the holy water spring of the World Tree Holy Land, to communicate with the World Tree in a more specific way and listen to the World Tree's oracle.
In an era when gods no longer walk the world, the Elf Emperor can forcibly communicate with the World Tree in this way.
However, this method of communication would not only cause the Elf Emperor to suffer more serious harm, but the World Tree might not pay attention to it.
This time the Elf Emperor's hot temper was unbearable, so she made a will, chose an heir, and then her soul left her body and jumped into the holy spring.
Even if I die, I will refute Amuruo's fallacy!
The World Tree gently soothed the Elf Emperor's soul, telling this brave yet fiery "Daughter of the World Tree": "Yes, I am seriously injured and dying. Alas, if you had not risked your life to come to see me, I might have had to wait until my death to find the opportunity to inform you."
Elf Emperor: “???”
The World Tree gently returned the Elf Emperor's soul to her body, telling her not to worry, as even if it died it would not let the enemy have an easy time.
The awakened Elf Emperor: “???”
The Elf Emperor answered Amuruo's call, tears streaming down his face, "Ancestor, help me! The World Tree says He is dying!"
Amuruo: “???”
He didn't know whether he should be shocked by the Elf Emperor's audacity in calling him a half-elf ancestor, or by the "open-mindedness" of the World Tree.
And even the World Tree is in trouble, don’t you, the guards of the Elven Holy Land, feel anything at all? ? ?
Oh, Singh, the person closest to the "God of the Sea", was unaware of the severe damage the God of Water had suffered.
Singh has recovered, and Amuruo thinks that his true self can return to Sur immediately.
Poor guy, he was on a business trip again and was sent by Sur to the holy land of the Elf Empire to see if he could save the World Tree which had already made the open-minded decision to fight the Outer Gods.
Soul: "There's no difference between the clone and the original. Aren't they both controlled by your consciousness?"
Amuruo, who had returned home to complain, was driven away aggrieved.
The human emperor learned the secret news that the world tree might be destroyed soon, and was so frightened that he mobilized his troops at night.
No room for appeasement! Regardless of political influence, follow me personally to annihilate the Silver Moon Temple, which has surrendered to heresy!
Ahhh, ancestor gods of mankind, are you okay?
Humanity's beliefs are complex. Beyond faith in their ancestors, everyone has some faith in other gods, regardless of their status. Many churches without strong ties to secular governments have their headquarters located in the Human Empire.
The human emperor was worried about the trouble these temples would bring him during the war of gods, but at the same time he was glad that the human empire had not established a unified belief in gods, so it would not be too difficult to send troops to destroy the temples.
The human emperor's words were concise and to the point when he mobilized his troops and made a national pre-war proclamation.
"Do you believe that the halflings have a conspiracy to destroy the world, or do you believe that the church leaders who collect huge offerings from believers every year are corrupt?!"
The Human Emperor pointed to the projection to the left.
The projections of silver-haired Pereira and blond-haired Leo, who were as handsome and cute as the little prince, smiled at the people.
The Human Emperor pointed to the projection on the right again.
There were a bunch of sanctimonious temple bishops there, whose looks were far inferior to those of the two halfling sons of God, and whose demeanors were condescending. The human emperor took a long time to select these Silver Moon bishops, who made people feel uncomfortable at first sight and who did have bad records themselves.
The people looked to the emperor's left and then to his right.
What do they believe in?
Silver Moon is the subordinate god of the Sun. The Sun chose the Halflings as its favored ones and guardians of its family. Can the Silver Moon believers still not believe in the Sun's choice?
Besides, only a fool would believe that the halflings have a conspiracy!
That's a halfling!
The believers of Silver Moon rushed to the Silver Moon Temple while praying to Silver Moon.
A blood moon rose from the Silver Moon Temple, hanging high above the night sky of the human imperial capital, illuminating half of the human imperial capital in red.
