Chapter 584 No, are you serious?

When the plan goes smoothly, every step seems perfect, giving people the belief that they will win.

However, once it fails, flaws will be revealed everywhere, just like a broken ship that is leaking everywhere.

Lu Ling thought about the possibility of failure.

It has also experienced many positive setbacks, being discovered, being discovered, attacked, fleeing or being killed.

But the process is not like this.

Lu Ling couldn't understand.

It has carefully screened and invited leaders who have both ambitions and vested interests.

The fox man Hu You is leading the orcs to fence off the hunting grounds and prohibit hunting without permission. He claims that this is to protect the integrity of the natural wilderness and the orc traditions.

Outsiders who want to go hunting must pay an entrance fee and corresponding maintenance fees.

A small portion of this money was paid to the kingdom as taxes, and most of it was retained for the construction of the autonomous region. Many Redthorn people felt that this was unreasonable, and the orc group also fought openly and secretly with the kingdom's tax officials over the account books.

…

Beifeng, a native of Zhouzhou, was the pioneer of the urban autonomy trend.

As the first ethnic minority to gain autonomy, the Zhouzhou people became the second largest tribe in the kingdom after the Redthorn Tribe through their actual monopoly on the [Manatees] and by forming an alliance with the mermaids.

Although the Zhouzhou people look short and dress in primitive style, they are the most united people and are very good at fighting and gathering. Relying on the expensive spice [Qihai Grass] produced by the sea cow, their wealth continues to accumulate and their influence in the kingdom is also growing day by day.

…

The camel beast Chagao, although he looks like an ox or a horse, the recent strike of 60,000 camels was planned by him.

The entire strike was well-trained and had clear demands, which created enough influence and public pressure in public. In addition, it happened to be during the tea-picking season, which made Wang Guo even more anxious.

Camels are of great significance to the Kingdom of the Sun, and the country has nearly 100,000 working camels.

This work animal has many tasks to perform, including picking and identifying tea leaves, picking and testing herbs, confirming the ripeness of fruits in the orchard and selecting new varieties, cultivating farmland and transporting supplies, leveling the land and building houses...

It can be said that the Kingdom of the Sun is a country that lives on the back of a camel.

…

Liangchen, the new generation leader of the Wild Wolf.

Unlike the land faction, it is leading the wolf pack to further develop the southern waters, a place over which the Kingdom of the Sun has no actual control.

The North Continent of the Continent Island World is the territory of the Kingdom of the Sun, but beyond the territorial waters, more than one-fifth of the South China Sea is the territory and paradise of the Wild Wolves.

The low-key and introverted Wild Wolf Clan, after receiving the Kingdom's order to open up the sea, has become a noble minority. They have occupied a large area of ​​the ocean and are becoming a powerful force that cannot be ignored.

…

These four ethnic minorities each have their own interests and are eyeing the Red Thorn Tribe, the current rulers of the Sun Kingdom. All phenomena prove that they are ready to replace them at any time.

For Lu Ling, whether or not he can completely overthrow the Sun Kingdom is not important.

As long as there is chaos, the elite group of this civilization will be disappointed and shaken, and then they can be absorbed by the country of the heart.

The gods will not pay attention to internal turmoil at the secular level.

To them, the secular world is nothing more than a population number, and the fire of faith brought by each individual is no different.

The demographic impact of the unrest and internal disorder in existing countries will occur in a decade or several dozen years.

By then, Lu Ling had already taken away the fresh blood he wanted and escaped.

However.

The reactions of the four leaders were surprisingly consistent.

——Give us your support and oppose the current situation of the Kingdom of the Sun, okay.

——It’s not possible to destroy the kingdom’s foundation.

——Absorb some of the people in the kingdom to become the people of the heart.

——Let us become people of the heart? No.

Lu Ling couldn't understand.

These guys who are closest to power actually believe that they have a chance to become gods? The fox man left a message before leaving.

"Go talk to the bird spirit or Lady Neferi. Let's just pretend nothing happened today."

…

Between evacuating quickly and taking the risk to verify, Lu Ling chose the latter.

By learning from the lessons, future countries will not fall into the same river again.

After thinking rationally, it realized that the bird spirit must know its intentions, and it knew that the apostle Neferi also knew, and the master of this world, the King of Light, also knew...

Since those in power knew about it but didn't kill me, there must be some reason.

Lu Ling was already prepared. If death could get an answer, then this sacrifice would be worth it.

So it found the bird spirit.

Both parties belong to the same category of buried spirits, so they can speak to each other more quickly and directly.

At sunset, the two ghosts strolled along the beach again.

But this time, their mindsets were completely different.

"When did you find out?"

"It should be time to enter the Kingdom of Heart." The bird spirit took a slow step forward. "A country without conflicts and contradictions, a strong country with abundant resources to evenly cover everyone, is undoubtedly the paradise that the citizens dream of."

"But at what cost? You never told me."

"The extinction of the Stork Pattern tribe has left a warning to future generations: for a civilization, if there are fewer and fewer changes and the various ethnic groups tend to be more and more the same, it will be very dangerous."

“Civilization always advances amidst contradictions and failures. This is an evolutionary mode that is characteristic of life. The other side of a stable period is usually a period of decline.”

The bird spirit spoke calmly, and his eyes gradually became sharper.

"I guess you covet the Kingdom of the Sun because you must rely on outsiders to further develop your civilization. Otherwise, you will fall into stagnation. Once you stop moving and changing, you will soon be destroyed."

Lu Ling heaved a sigh of relief: "Sure enough, we shouldn't underestimate any enemy."

"But I don't understand, how did you make those orcs and Zhouzhou people believe that this world has a bright future? Why do they firmly believe that they have the hope of becoming gods?"

Lu Ling expressed her biggest doubt: "How did you make them believe such a ridiculous scam? It's really amazing. I really want to ask you for advice."

"scam?"

The bird spirit sneered: "Why do you think it's a scam?"

"You can lie to others, but don't lie to yourself."

The deer spirit couldn't help but burst into laughter and raised its hoof to point at the bird spirit.

The bird spirit didn't laugh.

Lu Ling's smile gradually disappeared.

"No, are you serious?"

“This is the truth.”

“…Are you crazy?”

Lu Ling said, “For gods, divine power should also be an extremely valuable and rare resource. I know this very well. Even among the noble Navigators, only a few possess divine power.”

"Higher gods only grant it to races with extraordinary talents, or outstanding apostles who have followed for many years... Just like your King of Light, it seems that he has been stationed in this world since he awakened to wisdom, right?"

"good."

"That's right, how could the divinity be bestowed upon those untouchables down there?" Lu Ling insisted on his point of view.

"Because that is Lord Yaoshen."

The bird spirit said proudly: "God Yao will give everyone a chance, whether it is the Redthorn tribe who have just learned to walk upright, or the defeated generals who surrendered from the enemy, as long as they show their talents and make great contributions to the entire civilization, Lord Yao will bestow blessings on them."

"In addition, civilians are never lowly. Everyone knows that everyone has the potential to become a being on par with gods, so everyone is full of expectations and fighting spirit, and maintains basic respect for each other."

The other party's voice and expression revealed a kind of fanaticism and certainty that Lu Ling could not understand.

"His Majesty the King of Light is the source of the entire Redthorn Clan. He led the Redthorn Clan from the ocean to the ground. They looked up at the sky, measured the earth, built villages and towns, learned to understand the basic phenomena of the world's operation, and offered faith and loyalty to the gods. Therefore, he was recognized by Lord Yao and became the first apostle here."

"Later, he risked everything and rushed to the land beyond the sky, coming into close contact with the death Tai Sui that destroyed countless civilizations. He risked his life to obtain the [Stork Fish Mayfly Tank] from that incomprehensible and indescribable place of stagnation. From then on, the Kingdom of the Sun was able to develop rapidly, and finally caught up with the Yao Clan."

"For your contribution to the foundation and advancement of civilization, and your courage in facing death in the face of an invincible enemy, His Majesty the King of Light wears the crown of God. This is the gift and blessing of God Yao."

"This is God Yao."

The bird spirit raised its wings and pointed to the sky, saying with great confidence: "We have nothing to fear, because we know that God will always shine upon us."

Only then did Lu Ling realize a fact.

The core of the Continental Island World, or the Kingdom of the Sun, is not this perfect classical country.

The key to the connection and consensus among all ethnic groups is the belief and faith in the god Yao.

The King of Light is just the appearance of this world.

Lu Ling recalled.

If you tell the locals about the country's many ills, they will curse with you. They also say that the national welfare is too poor, the differences between cities are huge, the rich and the poor are unequal, different ethnic groups are not treated equally, the whole country is backward and slow, and there is corruption.

But you can't deny their beliefs.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Because in this country that seems to be full of contradictions and ethnic disputes, no matter which group, race, or interest they come from, they all have the same consensus.

They firmly believe that following God Yao is the most correct choice, and God Yao's glory will surely be passed on to everyone.

God Yao represents infinite possibilities for the future.

As long as a person has made great achievements, he can even have his own statue.

This is a deep-rooted and unquestionable self-confidence, not a cheap thing that comes overnight.

Even if the country collapses, those with different prejudices can still rebuild the temple on the ruins, offer their faith and loyalty to the gods, and they will continue to build a new country.

This is really scary.

Before he knew it, Lu Ling found himself in front of the temple.

"bring it on."

The bird spirit stood on the steps and said, "His Majesty the King of Light is waiting for you. He will answer your questions."

…

The King of Light was wrapped in holy light, just like the first time he saw him.

It looked like a human figure, but also like a crack that tore through space.

The surrounding light was distorted to varying degrees under the power of the gods, and it seemed that the incarnation of the holy light was slowly changing.

Apostle Neferi stood quietly at one side, her long patterned skirt dragging on the ground.

"Go ahead, go and take a look at the core world of the Yao Clan."

The King of Light seemed to have seen through everything.

A distant and ethereal oracle came from the holy light: "Neferi is with you. You can ask her any questions. Go, and you will understand after you see the outside world."

…

Lu Ling followed Neferi to the Temple in the Clouds first - it was a huge white vortex world. Lu Ling had seen its outline covering the world when he flew to Zhou Island.

In the desert of the Vortex World where life should not exist, stands a vast sand city.

Sand roses are all over the roads and exterior walls. Large tracts of forests and green spaces have been transformed around the city. The color of life is gradually being reborn among the barren sand and gravel.

Cloud roses that looked like paintings by gods floated in the sky. From time to time, flying boats emerged from these cloud flowers, dragging long cloud trails.

In addition, Lu Ling also witnessed with his own eyes the phase Kun Fei that covered the sky and the sun.

They occasionally stretch their bodies in the air. Once this giant life form is fully unfolded, it is like a floating continent high in the sky, casting a huge shadow on the ground.

What surprised Lu Ling was that this rare species, which was extremely precious even among the gods, and a powerful beast with the ability to locate and mark things in the universe, was actually placed casually in the desert-like vortex world by the God Yao.

Neferi told it: "The Bailing tribe here is mainly responsible for observing the sun, studying isotropic resonance, and front-end research in phases. They belong to a special group of scholars."

Then they entered the wind element channel for trial operation in Sand City. This project, named [Wind Speed ​​Fairness], is still in the internal testing phase and has not yet been fully announced to the public.

The user first confirms the route on the platform, and then walks into the passage from the platform. The [Wind Element Crystal Structure] laid on the ground can use the power of the wind element to propel everyone forward at a constant speed, safely and quickly.

Lu Ling used the wind speed to reach the foggy country at the other end of the desert.

In this mythical wonder, three frost giant brothers built an eternal city filled with vacationers from different worlds.

Tourists come here to play ice hockey and Frisbee, eat the local sweet and ice specialties, go to the Treasure Chest Club to draw prizes and play with treasure chest monsters, and the children of Nibelungen act as their tour guides.

The tourism industry is very mature.

These scenes shocked Lu Ling greatly.

It's very clear.

If the gods want to transform a world from yellow sand into fertile soil, or transform fertile soil into desert, they can do it as long as there is enough faith.

But to allow life to emerge in a dead world and for culture and technology to flourish, it is not enough to have enough power of faith.

This requires a highly developed civilization as a foundation, as well as strong tolerance and diversity, so that relocation and transformation can be quickly completed in a desert.

Lu Ling finally confirmed.

The god Yao was indeed a patron god who worked diligently. He was not the short-sighted god who only cared about piling up population and exploiting faith.

"Let's go look outside the sky again."

Neferi brought Lu Ling into the launch platform and boarded a crystal flying boat.

The flying boat was controlled by a skeleton pilot. It skillfully accelerated the flying boat into the sky, broke through the clouds, squeezed through the world boundary, and arrived in the lonely and boundless void space.

Lu Ling looked out the window.

Around the Vortex World, the Yao Clan has built a partial ring road made of world fragments.

There are scattered flying boats parked on this ring road, and tall towers standing to guide flights. There are also skeleton ancestors, ghosts, and earth elemental creatures working with sky lanterns.

The flying boat flew at a steady speed beside the ring road, circling around the Yunzhong Temple.

"How did you do that?" Lu Ling asked cautiously, "Even after breaking through the boundary, how do you break through the pull and restraint of the world's rules?"

Nefeli smiled and said, "I don't know about this either. I haven't been outside for a while. Pilot, please introduce your skills to the two of us who are lagging behind."

"Master Apostle, distinguished guest, what is relied on here is the magnetic element."

The skeleton pilot said proudly: "The power of magnetic elements spreads throughout the ring, allowing the flying boat to easily travel in the designated navigation area around the ring. We pilots only need to control the direction and decide to move forward, slow down and dock."

"According to the schedule recently revised by Master Fahai, it is estimated that in about a hundred years, the first phase of the loop around Yunzhong Temple will be fully completed and can smoothly connect to the two nearby worlds. At that time, please come and experience it..."

Lu Ling was silent.

This is not the power of gods, but the power of civilization.

The Yao civilization is trying to control the world.

…

After landing from the flying boat, Nefeli said: "For the last stop, we will go to a distant world. There are other gods there. It is an experimental area under the command of Lord Yaoshen."

After crossing the border, the deer spirit followed Neferi and arrived at the world called the Sleepless Civilization.

It immediately realized that something was wrong here. It was the Leaping Zone! The White Bone Ancestors were the main ethnic group here.

Different from the dull undead system in the deer spirit's cognition, the skeletons used bones to build high towers and mobile fortresses that could be used for both offense and defense, created chariots and detachable houses, and planned large tracts of farmland and pastures... Everywhere was a scene of vitality.

Lu Ling saw with her own eyes that an ancient dragon carrying the power of destruction was running on the ground towards the sun, enjoying the simplest happiness.

Its body is comparable to that of a god, but here it looks like a large pet that is allowed to roam free.

"That's Asi, also an apostle."

Nefili introduced: "However, Asi has only joined for a short time and is still adapting to the pace of life of the Yao tribe... He is currently learning from Maocao. I heard that this is his morning run time, so don't worry about it."

“…”

Lu Ling took a deep breath and said, "If Dixin Nation wants to worship Lord Yaoshen, is there still a chance?"

"Of course."

Neferi said unsurprisingly: "Rather than dealing with an enemy, we would rather gain a friend."

"I can only make suggestions, I can't make the final decision... I need to return to the [Country of the Heart] and discuss with everyone before making the final decision."

To show his sincerity, Lu Ling also told the secrets of the Dixin Kingdom.
