Pericles looked at Nader Shah and simply smiled knowingly.
Then, he turned his gaze to Lin Ke, who was standing at the edge of the venue.
"Is he the Holy Pharaoh?"
Nadir Shah paused, then exhaled through his nostrils.
"Who else would dare to do this besides him?"
After saying that, the two continued to look at where Lin Ke was, while Leonidas was talking to the Greek guards on the sidelines. Several guards then hurriedly rushed towards where Lin Ke was.
On the other side, Lin Ke was listening to the words of the glamorous man.
"Clever words and flattering manner, yet he already knows how to use sophistry and these flowery words on his first time attending a world conference."
"In the end, it's nothing more than a kingdom that first participated in a world conference in a desert region."
"However, to be so arrogant on your first appearance, I wonder what kind of role you will become in the future, Holy Pharaoh."
"I'm afraid they'll become even more arrogant."
Despite the other party's sarcasm, Lin Ke's expression remained unchanged.
The people beside him also cast worried glances at Lin Ke.
Clearly, the ornate figure was mocking the fact that Holy Egypt's status in this region was not as high as the other's.
What the crowd didn't know was that Lin Ke didn't care about this so-called "status" at all.
That thing was worthless to him.
Therefore, Lin Ke smiled slightly in response to the other party's words.
"No, no."
When the other person heard "No, no" again, their expression became even more unpleasant.
"What I attended was a world conference."
"In my view, the value of the World Conference should not lie in comparing whose culture is more advanced or whose status is higher, right?"
Lin Ke deliberately avoided direct provocation from the glamorous figures, instead discussing his understanding of the essence of the meeting.
"As I understand it, the World Conference is a place where every civilization can have its voice, and it must have its unique significance."
"We, the Holy Egyptians, have lived in the desert for thousands of years, tamed the floods of the Nile, and accumulated a wealth of experience in coexisting with harsh environments."
"In addition, we have awakened several ancient Egyptian gods and established friendly alliances with neighboring kingdoms."
"Today, we not only have a complete food supply system, but also the technology to build large ships."
"I think this knowledge should be of some reference value to some civilizations that have been plagued by floods or droughts for many years, to civilizations that want to build ships, and to other civilizations."
"I came with the intention of sharing and building friendly relations. How can you so easily judge me as an arrogant monarch?"
"That is probably a biased view."
Upon hearing this, many people immediately showed expressions of surprise.
Even some civilization leaders who originally had no knowledge of or interest in Holy Egypt began to cast curious glances at Lin Ke.
That wasn't just because of Lin Ke's words, but also because of the Holy Egypt that Lin Ke described.
A leader from a nomadic civilization suddenly interjected, seemingly very interested in what Lin Ke had said.
"Oh? We've been suffering from droughts for years, and we're really struggling to find a solution!"
"We would be very grateful if Holy Egypt could offer us some guidance in any direction!"
Lin Ke then looked at the grassland leader and gave him a polite nod.
Then, he turned his gaze to the person dressed in gorgeous clothes.
"You see, this is the real charm of the World Conference."
"If each civilization comes with its own knowledge and skills, we will be able to build a more stable world system together."
"But what you just said has probably deviated from this point."
“But I believe that you have simply forgotten your original intentions. With a little guidance, you can get back on the right path.”
As others began to focus on Lin Ke, the glamorous figure grew increasingly displeased.
Especially after Lin Ke finished adding the last sentence, he clenched his fists even more.
Stop with the charade!
"You fellow from the desert kingdom, you only managed to get some opportunities for development by luck these past few years because of the favorable climate!"
"How dare you still speak so arrogantly about the World Conference!"
"When the sandstorms rage again, what will be left of your kingdom?"
Faced with the other party's rage, Lin Ke remained calm and composed, and even took the opportunity to respond.
"You're right about that. Climate is indeed an important factor affecting the survival of civilization."
Upon hearing this, even Nadir Shah and Pericles let out a slight chuckle.
Lin Ke continued, "This is why we attach so much importance to the World Conference."
"You see, through communication, we can learn how to better adapt to natural changes instead of being destroyed by them."
"For example, the achievements of the Greeks in the Mediterranean are something we should learn from."
Lin Ke's unhurried attitude piqued the interest of several civilization leaders, who began to whisper among themselves, discussing what kind of civilization Holy Egypt truly was.
The glamorous man was getting annoyed by Lin Ke's way of speaking and was about to make another sarcastic remark, but Lin Ke preemptively struck.
"Actually, what interests me most today is how to build a closer network of cooperation while respecting the uniqueness of each civilization."
As Lin Ke spoke, she looked around with a sincere gaze.
"For example, mutual assistance mechanisms in the face of common disasters, or regular channels for technical exchanges."
"These are exactly the things I hope to discuss at this meeting."
His words were concise and to the point, and even several senior delegates couldn't help but look at this young leader with new respect.
He didn't come to show off his culture, nor did he come to beg for attention; he came with sincerity.
"However, I must thank you for this. If it weren't for your discussion with me, I probably wouldn't have had the opportunity to speak."
"On behalf of Holy Egypt, I would like to express my gratitude to you!"
Lin Ke said, then bowed slightly.
Just then, more distinct, joyful laughter came from behind.
The glamorous man's face was contorted with bulging veins as he slowly raised his fist, seemingly intending to teach Lin Ke a lesson.
However, just as he made this move, several Greek guards approached him.
Seeing this, he simply exhaled sharply through his nostrils, trying to calm his rage.
Just then, the attendant behind the glamorous man finally couldn't hold back any longer. He stepped forward and began to interrupt in a sarcastic tone.
"But in the end, Holy Egypt was nothing more than a newly emerging desert civilization!"
"You've gone to such great lengths to attract the attention of our esteemed emperor, haven't you?"
