The three gods couldn't help but look at each other.
If there is a way to basically achieve the goal, then do you still need to expend your magical power here to strive for better results?
The answer is naturally no.
Coming to the world in the form of an incarnation, the already scarce energy will suffer more losses, and under the current situation, to obtain sufficient replenishment, we must wait until the matter is completely resolved, so after hesitating for a while, everyone
The gods still reached a small consensus - a truce for the time being.
"We don't intend to continue the war, but we don't intend to end it like this, so what do you want?" There was silence, and then the third person asked again.
He finally revealed himself from the shadows. It was an extremely strong and tall human figure. Although the overly broad shoulders and thick muscles, as well as the thick red beard and hair that almost covered his face, made him look closer.
For a dwarf, at least the beard has not grown to the point of hanging down, it only covers his chin and lips.
"It's very simple. Your Majesty Gond." The young king laughed and called out the name of the forging god: "The culprit that caused the civilians to suffer the war and the death of my father was the empire. So, as long as the empire is destroyed, it will be fine.
Already."
Is this teasing?
In an instant, the surrounding space was filled with indescribable oppression and heaviness. Even the two marquis on the edge could feel it - the staff in the magician's hand crackled, and fine cracks ran along the
The crystals burst out and extended, and the shield shone. It was almost crumbling!
"What I'm talking about is to destroy the empire. Not to destroy its population, cities, or nobles. In other words, I don't want to destroy it, I just change its form."
Facing the sudden surge of power from the three gods, the human king laughed even more cheerfully, seemingly not feeling the slightest discomfort. It wasn't until the pressure disappeared that he slowly smiled: "This large and inappropriate country is entrenched in the mainland.
It has been on this continent for too long, and as time goes on, things like it are no longer suitable to stay on this continent and continue its rule."
"You... want to divide the empire?"
"Is there any impact? The common people serve the nobles, and the nobles still serve their kings. The only difference is that they have a few more kings. To solve the current situation, this is actually the simplest
Way." The king said, and then sat down on the throne again, folding his hands: "Small kingdoms are far more dynamic than big ones, and
And it can also separate and remove all the original threats to the empire, this huge existence...logistics, population, military power. Everything can restrict the possibility of war expanding to a huge extent, and the power of every country is limited.
At a smaller level, it is easier to control, and because small countries have more needs for temples, they are more suitable for,."
The sights of the gods were focused on the figure of the contented mortal.
Human titles, status, and power are meaningless in front of gods. Kings, emperors, or all kinds of things... are just small and weak, like a horse, a dog, a rabbit, or a dung beetle, an ant, etc.
The stuff is no different.
However it is completely different.
Or is it because of that mortal's expression, that mortal's gaze?
His facial features are not handsome and exquisite, but his current calmness makes even gods unable to look at him, and his dark eyes do not flinch even when facing gods. They are calm and equal, even condescending.
Indifference - that is the feeling of 'a life exists there', no matter how weak it is, it is such a clear sign of existence. Even God cannot ignore it.
When facing that face and that gaze, not even a god could understand this person's true thoughts and desires.
Is this what mortals call a king?
"So, your majesties, what do you think? Do you accept my little prayer?"
The young man's voice was sincere, steady, and incredibly persuasive... just like he had shown from the beginning. But what he got in exchange was another long round of calm.
Do you accept it? Are there any reasons for rejection?
The spirits of the three gods are in contact with each other and testing each other.
The benefits that person mentioned were very superficial. Just the possibility of an increase in temples and believers was enough to attract the attention of the gods. But more importantly, the gods could see further and see more - the great country was divided into
For a small country, the intensity of the war will indeed decrease, but the conceivable border line will be
It has been extended several times. When the binding force of national interests in general disappears, friction between each other is inevitable, and the number of wars will inevitably increase. Most wars mean most combat actions, which means most believers.
It also means the next war, the next war.
For the two gods of war, this is definitely a huge temptation.
"Interesting boy, it's a pity that you can't understand the charm of war yet, but it doesn't matter. Although mortal life is short, you will eventually find what you want. I will wait, waiting for you to come to the eternal battlefield..."
Accompanied by wild laughter, the five-armed figure of the God of War disappeared into a mass of scarlet blood. The burst of dark red penetrated into every inch of the space in an instant. The strong and pungent smell of blood spread around, and the maniacally laughing figure
There was a metallic impact in the voice, which seemed to annihilate everyone.
The battlefield was thus formed. But in the next moment, everything disappeared completely - just like a bubble bursting in an instant, the battlefield and several gods disappeared, leaving only the red knight's soft female voice with a metallic echo.
: "I hope I can see your sincerity."
Everything is like a dream.
"Huh... I'm so exhausted. The Red Knight, the Marauder, and a God of Artisans are even added together? How did they all come together... I thought I could rest after I came back from the expedition, but I ended up facing three gods.
Is this too exciting?" After a long time, the young man on the throne finally relaxed his shoulders, leaned back in the chair, then waved to the three people in the corner and said with a smile: "Jasper, Vladimir.
And Master Benjamin, thank you for your hard work."
The master quietly propped up his body and narrowed his eyes at the young man on the throne. He remained silent. The cracked staff in his hand made a loud noise and exploded into thin ash, scattering in all directions! This sound
It seemed to wake him up, so he let out a long sigh, turned around, opened a door in the space, and left, leaving the two courtiers looking at each other and staggering towards the throne.
"Don't worry, you two, the gods are much more powerful than us. But as long as you know their purpose, everything is no different from us," the young king slumped in his chair, but still looked relaxed.
With a cheerful smile, he nodded to the two courtiers and spoke easily, as if what he was telling was not the life and death of three gods, but an after-party game: "But it's actually quite simple.
Right?"
Simple?
Yes, it's just a little more complicated than the dead! If this continues for a while, I'm afraid there will be at least two more dead marquises here!
Jasper took a breath of hatred and his body trembled. He almost wanted to curse, wanted to complain. He even wanted to slam the door and leave - at least at this time, the Marquis thought he had this power, but when he walked up
After a few steps, when I faced that person's eyes, all this resentment disappeared for some reason, and finally turned into a long sigh.
"It's too dangerous, Your Majesty, you... Sigh, and do we really want to stop the conquest of the empire? Are you confident that you can persuade those three majesties to split the entire empire?" The leader of the Secret Knights
He was the first to speak, and his thinking direction was as pragmatic as ever: "Although the empire is indeed weakened now, our situation is not optimistic either. We no longer have the strength to fight another battle that can kill it."
"Don't be impatient. I don't think the empire can be divided so easily. Your majesties have fulfilled my prayer. That's great. It saves me some time. If not, this battle can still be fought anyway, right? Yes.
It’s always good to have a goal.”
The young king shook his hand: "As for cooperating with them to investigate those things, what does that have to do with me? Anyway, those guys have much more military power than me... All I need to do is issue an order. What on earth are they doing?
It's their business to cooperate with their majesties... I don't believe that they have the guts to play tricks in front of the gods! Haha... Oh, by the way, Jas
Bo Qing, haven't you been worrying about military expenses? Now you can justifiably stop the attack. They serve the gods and go to the God of War Temple to ask for their reward. Oh, by the way, I asked you to prepare it for me.
Have you mobilized the reserve army? In the territory occupied by the empire, there are no new subordinates to take control of it, so it will be very hard."
After being stunned for a while, the two marquises looked at each other and sighed at the same time.
In other words, the gods should also be used as objects? Is this the difference in age, no, the difference in thinking?
Use all means, regardless of the process, only seek the results... When did that person, that young, gentle, somewhat inconspicuous prince, become a king, no, become an emperor?
Where is it?
Emperor, yes, he is the emperor, right?
He is more powerful than the king, and has everything in the country in his hands. But it is very strange. Isn’t this person actually still has nothing? He has not even subdued any of the powerful nobles in Tuminis, those seven people.
None of them have sworn allegiance to him now.
However, he will definitely succeed and become the king of Tuminis and the emperor of all territories. He may even be crowned emperor one day when the empire's rule reaches its end.
What kind of fantasy is this?
Earl Jasper shook his head, wanting to laugh at himself for his sudden random thoughts, but he unconsciously raised his head and stared at the man slumped in the seat, staring at the dark pair of
With blurred eyes, the young king suddenly appeared to be wearing a long robe and a golden crown...
So the finance minister of the kingdom twitched his lips, not knowing whether he should cry or laugh.
As a veteran who has served his father, His Majesty the Third, for more than twenty years, he claims to know the prince very well, but now it seems that he may not even see half of him... He was once considered easy-going.
, does not like fighting and thinks that he will only become a steadfast lord, it is simply a big mistake. It is so wrong that you can die to apologize.
"This person, or perhaps the Fernandez family, has been waiting for. That black tulip..."
He lowered his gaze and said in his heart in a voice that only he could hear.
Tulips, as the heraldry of the Fernandez royal family, have many meanings - they were originally a common species in the foothills of the Central Mountains in the northwest. They have been discovered and cultivated for thousands of years, and are cultivated on a large scale.
It's in the west of the empire
This originally wild, flame-shaped flower looks delicate and charming, but the bulbs covered with scales like to take root in the foothills of the snow-capped mountains. Once summer comes, the originally barren ground can be covered with bright flowers.
, fighting for beauty.
Therefore, although among the people, white tulips symbolize the pure love between men and women, but purple means the perseverance to survive the severe cold. Red is a unique nobility...interpretations vary. Among many colors, only
Black tulips are the most noble and unobtrusive. They are endowed with the meaning of leadership and proof of endless glory.
Among the millions of flowers, not one petal may be purely black, and the pure black tulip is a symbol of hegemony.
"Oh, I'm so tired. It's such a hard life..." The young man complained and stood up, squeezing his shoulders with a tired look. He didn't care whether this unethical behavior had changed his mind just now in the hearts of his ministers.
The image he established was completely destroyed. Then, he muttered to himself using the weird vocabulary he learned from another person: "Oh, I still have no time to spare, but what can I do? Hahaha, the early bugs were eaten by the birds.
, isn’t it good?”
"Your Majesty? What are you going to do?"
The space door opened in front of the young king shocked the two courtiers, but the king had already stepped in, leaving them with only a few words that they didn't understand: "Oh, to put it simply, everything is about to change.
era..."
"The meaning of defeating the superior is to defeat the superior with the weak. This is what Edward said... However, it seems that it is not easy..."
"What's so difficult? That idiot is just a guy with weak divine power. I can't even understand why your God of War wants to keep him until now. Is it because he is afraid of his power? But no matter what,
His power is about the same as yours now. Lowering the clone is already strenuous enough for this kind of being."
"But even if he becomes weaker, he is still a god, and a god of war. When it comes to battle..."
"Answer me, who am I?"
"You... you are my master, Your Majesty. You will also be the sole master and supreme ruler of this continent, this plane, and this multiverse. You are the first, the only, and the omniscient and omnipotent existence."
"Yes, I am your master, so why do you think that I cannot match the power of a god? Is your power strong enough to judge the battles of this class?"
"No, my lord, this was my mistake. I did not doubt your qualifications."
"Very good. So, do you know what kind of gods are the easiest to be killed? Haha, yes, you are very smart, but you are unprepared. As long as you are not prepared, no matter whether it is a god, a human, or anything else,
Everything is easier to hit than at any time. Of course, with my strength, I don’t need to hit the vital points. It’s just to take care of your current weakness..."
…
A blood-red halo passed through the sky, dyeing the clouds at noon with a layer of bright dark red, making mortals look askance. And in this dark red, Karigos was running excitedly through the sky... across the sky.
At that moment, countless tiny halos of light converged from all directions.
They gathered together and were continuously concentrated and swallowed by the mist. But in a moment, the red light surrounding the five-armed giant had become thicker by at least 10%, and the originally dark red light had become brighter.
Flickering, the fog is thick, and it's like blood surging.
That is the power of faith, the source of all divine power in this world.
And these powers do not originate from the worship of believers, but are symbols of the wars in this world. Killing, burning, robbery, plunder, rape, atrocities...all the evil actions brought about by war.
, are the most delicious nutrients for the God of War, endlessly replenishing his power consumed by plane suppression.
Exciting.
Kill, burn, rape, these loyal dogs who know the joy of war, use your actions to enhance my power!
Kalecgos laughed silently, and his laughter turned into thunder among the clouds, falling all the way, accompanying the god, flying towards the east of the continent - although there is still some force in this world that suppresses his
Perception prevented him from making full use of his power, but as the God of War, his instinct told him that a war was beginning to take place in that direction.
There’s no feeling of any constraints, it’s really great&…
The blood-red stream of light stopped in an instant.
Because a few miles away in front of it, there was a silver halo unfolding, and a dark figure was strolling out of it. The gorgeous palace clothes made the god stunned.
Your Majesty, have you really changed your mind?
