Chapter 445: Don’t Become an Enemy
The wise insect gave Charles an indescribable sense of weirdness.
As a member of the same race as Lord Kebli, the King of the Tomb, the wise insect has demonstrated outstanding intelligence and excellent communication skills. Regardless of his own demigod strength or his speech and behavior, he is like a powerful figure.
But his identity is just a spy sent by God.
Talking about the gods behind him, Zhichong showed a firm confidence: "Lord Yao always encourages and welcomes cooperation and coexistence. God is tolerant and generous to friends who are willing to develop together."
"Whether it's a rootless refugee like me, or a sinful god and monster locked in a dungeon, or a titled god belonging to the Resurrection Kingdom outside... Lord Yao has given them all a chance."
"But if we confirm that they are the enemy, the Yao tribe's offensive will be endless like a tide. There will be no compromise. We will continue to fight the enemy everywhere until we completely destroy the enemy from the inside out."
Charles could feel that the wise insect had unparalleled confidence in its own camp.
With a strong backer behind it, it is fearless even when it comes to Dog City alone.
Lord Khepri therefore suspected that the god Yao was most likely a powerful god at the same level as Anubis in the past.
Charles secretly observed the wise insect throughout the process.
The other party was chatting with the King of the Tomb, and his leisurely and relaxed demeanor was indeed not fake.
After sending the wise insect away, Kebli called Charles.
"I'm going to give you a task."
The Tomb King said in a serious and low voice: "Before long, I will try to loosen the seal and send you out."
"This time, you will serve as the eyes of the Dog City and observe the true and false of the wise insects. I want you to remember everything there with your eyes. Watch more, listen more, ask more, and write more."
"You are the best and calmest commander among the Undead Warriors. You have commanded hundreds of battles. I believe in your judgment and observation abilities."
"Only after I determine the difference in strength between the two sides can I make the final decision. You should know that there are still rebellious demigods and the corpses of the old gods in the city. I cannot risk fighting on two fronts."
"Go, Charles, and return with your eyes and your records."
"Yes! Your Majesty!"
Charles understood that he had an important mission this time.
It's war or peace.
Your own judgement will be crucial.
After the negotiation, the wise insect took Charles with him and left this ancient and huge city. Charles left the red spider lily for the first time, crossed the brown-red high hill ridge, and arrived at the new world that he had never touched.
His record also began.
…
Record 1 Arrived at the destination. This is a world ruled by the Kingdom of Resurrection, where all the civilians are skeletons of the undead type.
They are the most common skeleton ancestors, with weak bodies and no advantage over predatory beasts. But they have good coordination ability, and their advantages are numbers and organizational ability.
Such groups of soldiers, no matter how large their numbers, pose no threat to Dog City and are vulnerable to a single blow.
…
Record 2: I went to the [Fortress] accompanied by Totoro.
This is the concentrated area where the main force of the Resurrection Kingdom is stationed. The soldiers are mainly skeleton soldiers, and the officers and elites are usually skeleton knights, with very weak combat capabilities. Just give me a team and I will destroy this place in half a day.
However, this is just a new world in the chain of civilization. The civilization has only been around for a few hundred years, and the forces behind it are impossible to judge.
…
Record 3 [Livestock City] is a strategic location.
A large number of sheep, cattle, horses and chickens are raised here, which continuously produce raw materials for sealing mud. It is also the most important production base of local strategic resources.
In addition, the livestock here also produces meat, bones, eggs, wool and leather.
Each resource has important value to the local area.
Meat is an important trading item with the Twin Snake Empire, bones are the basis for increasing the population of the Bone Ancestors, eggs can be used as food and can also expand the size of chickens, and wool and leather are universal materials that can be widely used.
Once the war starts, as long as we first occupy the [Animal City], we can cut off the lifeline of the Resurrection Kingdom.
…
Record 4 I correct my previous point of view.
[Kencheng] is the most important cornerstone of the kingdom.
The grass on the land alone is not enough to support a large pasture, and the various crops in the reclamation city are the key. These crops can be harvested continuously and are the main food supply for livestock.
The Bone Ancestors did not need to eat these crops, but these foods were the most indispensable foundation of the entire kingdom.
Compared with their weak military capabilities, the development of local agriculture and animal husbandry is their strongest strength.
…
Record 5 today's work, and only by personally participating in the production of the kingdom can you understand how it operates.
…
Record 6: Working today, going to the fields.
…
…
Record 12: Today's work, grazing.
…
…
Record 28 Today's King's Election.
As a specially invited foreign affairs personnel, I also have one vote.
I voted for Farmer Stefan.
He was a strong fellow, experienced in farming, a practical man, and the farmers loved him.
…
Record 33 Stefan actually lost! These skeletons did not choose a strong and pragmatic leader, but chose the craftsman Raymond.
It was simply because Raymond promised that during his term in office he would provide bone horses to the citizens, with priority given to the oldest ones based on their years of service.
I think this country is doomed!
…
Record 41 I said Raymond is not good enough.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
This guy used a lot of bones to make a batch of bone horses, but the bone reserves were insufficient. In the end, he could only make bone horse-drawn carts, which were distributed to farms and ranches for public use.
Many citizens threw fresh cow dung at him, what a pity, such good cow dung. If it were sent to Dog City, it would be the nutrient for breeding undead warriors.
…
Record 58 It has been a while since I came to the Resurrection Kingdom, and I finally visited the local gods.
Martyr is an ordinary god. He is cautious in his words and actions and rarely appears in the secular world.
From Him, I confirmed an amazing news.
This civilized world with the Resurrection Kingdom as its main body does not belong to the God Yao, but to a god with a title called the "Messenger of the Gods".
God Yao was a powerful ally invited by the messenger.
This kingdom seems to be under the jurisdiction of the God of Martyrs, but the real controller is Yao God's apostle Maocao, and the wise insect is just her assistant. The godhood given to the wise insect by the King of the Tomb was directly transferred to the messenger. From this, I infer that Yao God does not care about a godhood.
The power of God Yao is unfathomable and cannot be made an enemy.
…
After two months of investigation and reconnaissance, Charles bid farewell to the wise insect and returned to Dog City.
"My Lord, this is the Yao Clan's return gift for the godhood you gave me last time."
Charles presented a large, square piece of white paper in both hands.
"Origami incarnation, a substitute for the dead body...it's really a great treasure to save your life." Kebli stroked the paper gently.
There was no expression of emotion on his dark face, and his appearance looked like a black beetle tightly hugging his cheek, but in fact the beetle was his real body, and his body was just the remains of the old god Khepri.
"This is the record I made. Please take a look."
After reading the records revised by Charles, Kebli fell into deep thought.
"God Yao..."
"Don't you know any of His titles?"
Charles replied: "Even the messenger does not know the title and true name of Yao Shen... This god seems to never appear in the world with a title."
"You said that we should not make an enemy of him."
The insect tentacles on Kebli's face twitched: "You think we can't win?"
"...I believe that we can mobilize the Undead Warriors to conquer the entire Resurrection Kingdom, and even threaten and intimidate the Messengers of the Gods."
Charles said solemnly: "But these have no effect on God Yao. If such military actions are regarded by God Yao as a declaration of war, then we will be in a very unfavorable situation."
"The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. In the Resurrection Kingdom, if God Yao uses a lethal wonder to directly destroy the world level, the warriors will suffer heavy losses."
"We have paid a huge price, and it is very likely that we will only get a world on the verge of collapse. Therefore, I think that we should not go to war with God Yao unless it is absolutely necessary."
Khepri tapped his fingers on the throne.
"Your judgment is correct. Rather than provoking an unknown powerful enemy, it is more in the interest of Dog City to gain a powerful partner."
"Charles, you will be responsible for the subsequent transactions with the wise bugs. I will officially begin to suppress the rebellion in the city. I have tolerated them for too long in the past. Now is the time to settle the score."
The Tomb King said murderously.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Charles knew it in his heart. This time, [Undead Sealing Mud] brought hundreds of strong undead warriors to Lord Kebli. There will be a subsequent transaction with God Yao, so there is no need to worry about the problem of insufficient troops in the short term.
The loss of manpower caused by war is no longer an unsolvable problem.
The good days of those monsters that have ruled the area of Dog City are over.
Charles also breathed a sigh of relief.
Your Majesty is indeed wise and has chosen to cooperate.
Just thinking of God Yao gave Charles a heavy feeling of oppression.
The messengers of the gods were extremely respectful, the martyrs did not dare to call him by his name, the apostles were cautious, and the wise insects had a fanatical look on their faces.
Only by experiencing it personally can one realize the terrifying power that is unspeakable and cannot be seen directly.
This sense of oppression is invisible and intangible, but it is present in every corner of the outside world.
