Chapter 875 Because I Am a Prophet! (Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket!)

This thing is very simple.

Ian has been away from Xiahui Territory recently. Scott and Elder Manya manage the Imperial Territory and the Chongling Sect on the mountain people's side respectively, which naturally leads to differences in the development of both parties.

After all, neither of them are messengers of the Dragon God.

Moreover, for some reason, the video related to the ‘Mahdi’ and the ‘Dark Gold Dragon’ was passed to Xiahui Ling.

Although there are some differences, the dark gold dragon does indeed look like the steel dragon.

This image, coupled with the legend that had been circulating among the mountain people before Ian took control of the mountain people, was believed by a considerable number of mountain people to be a symbol of the Dragon God's imminent return.

Who is the boss between the returned Dragon God and the Dragon God's envoy?

Isn’t this the problem?

Ian has actually guessed who this legend originated from...without a doubt, it was Qiang Ganglong himself. Who else could it be?

This dragon had a battle with the Ice Mist Dragon, and the two parties exchanged homes. The Ice Mist Dragon stayed on the snowy top of the Baisen Mountains, while the Qiang Steel Dragon stayed in the crystal cave beneath the Alien Research Institute.

Before his death, Qiang Ganglong had an exchange with the Last Echo. After Qiang Ganglong asked the Last Echo to use his flesh and blood to create the 'Dark Gold Dragon', he returned to the Byson Mountains to announce his return and the message of victory. .

This is probably a joke Qiang Ganglong planned to play with the mountain people: I am dead! Eh! I'm alive again!

But this joke lasted four hundred years and was no longer the last humor of the real dragon. It was enough to create a major crisis that could cause the sect to split.

"Qiang Ganglong, please kowtow to me. Not only do I have to help him take care of the mountain people, but I also have to deal with the many problems he left behind... He is really irresponsible!"

Thinking of this, Ian couldn't help but grit his teeth in his heart: "These people are really too idle, but they can be solved easily."

After all, both the Mahdi and the dark gold dragon are now in his hands.

Even if there is an irresolvable conflict between the Mountain People and the Imperial Faction, he can directly parachute the Mahdi and the Dark Gold Dragon and declare that he, the 'Messenger of the Dragon God', is the real host who can teach the people on behalf of the gods.

As for the dark gold dragon, it is nothing more than a descendant of God. Ian can fully represent Qiang Steel Dragon and Long Zi.

In this way, a trinity pattern of Dragon God, Dragon God's descendants and Dragon God's messengers was formed, completely absorbing the entire Dragon God belief into Chongling Sect.

But to put it bluntly, they are all idle... These mountain people really started to punish heretics after they had enough to eat.

"Next time I come forward and educate those mountain people."

Ian said solemnly: "The education of the new generation of mountain people must be stepped up. The Dragon God can exist as a cultural totem, but it should no longer involve the Chongling Sect and the Xiahui Leader."

"Scott, go make arrangements and invite the most senior mountain priests over. I have to have a good 'meeting' with them to let them know that when the Dragon God is away, I am the messenger. The only representative."

"Promise to complete the mission, sir."

To this, Scott immediately agreed, but after thinking for a while, he said cautiously: "But sir, there have been some discordant voices among the mountain people recently. They said that in the past, even the messengers of the Dragon God had to Discuss decisions with the chiefs of each tribe.”

"The way you are now... is actually a dictatorship."

"dictatorship?"

Ian was still a little angry at first, but after hearing this, he showed a surprised expression. He sighed: "This is the spies from Feiyandi who are working hard again... We are an empire, and the word dictatorship is simply a matter of course. Good or not, only the alliance system in Feiyandi will think this is a bad thing."

"The images of the Mahdi and the dark gold dragon were probably passed on by them, right? After these people knew that I was a prophet, they stopped engaging in infiltration and sabotage. Instead, they started to engage in these little secret tricks."

That being said, sometimes small means are more troublesome than frontal destruction and fighting... Internal divisions are always more terrifying than frontal enemies.

"Tell that to the tribal chiefs who want to accuse me of being dictatorial."

Having made up his mind, Ian waved his hand: "I will not talk about democratic consensus with a group of people who cannot have their own food. I am a prophet and I can see the future. If they don't have another prophet and don't want to die, then Better listen to me."

"Understood, sir."

These are actually small things, chaos that occurred when Ian was away. As long as Ian is around, no one dares to say such things.

But this is actually the reason why Ian's control over the mountain people has not reached its peak.

Ian was too weak when he became the envoy of the Dragon God, so he did not establish much authority at that time. Although he led the mountain people to repel the Flying Flame Land, people only believed in his wisdom, not his strength.

We have to find an opportunity to show off our muscles... Moreover, it is also time for the Chongling Sect to show some of its own 'uniqueness', which is completely different from the mountain people's belief in the Dragon God.

Thinking secretly in his heart, Ian began to listen to Qingchao's talk about the military construction of Xiahui Territory.

Before becoming an earl, Ian already had an armored squad and an independent regiment.

In addition, as a baron, he can also form a militia and escort to ensure the security of the territory.

Xiahui Ling's military construction is currently based on the emphasis on quality rather than quantity, and all economic priorities are given priority.

But even so, Xiahui Leader also has a 300-person charged rifle shooting brigade and a 70-person magnetic storm armor squadron.

In addition, including Ian's own armor 'Cyclops', two other armors are also being manufactured.

"Build more."

When Ian heard this, he gave instructions: "Xiahui Territory has been upgraded to a count territory, and the surrounding Mountain People Autonomous Region is already my territory. Three armors are not enough at all. At least twelve can barely meet my requirements. "

"If we didn't have money, I would really like to build thirty units and form an armored brigade."

"Boss, the only one who can drive the armor is me, and Scott still has his shadow."

Qingchao responded seriously: "Among those mountain people, only Elder Manya and his group are trustworthy, but they can only find three people to drive the armor."

"Although our territory has enough resources to build and buy after the mountain people's mines are operational...but the driver can barely come."

"Then it will take a few years to train them. Qingchao, all the 'sublimated reserve's trained by you will be able to drive armor in the future. This is your task."

Ian said calmly: "As for the near future, we must ensure that we have enough armor reserves - do you think that what I predicted in Nauman City was all false? Feiyandi will definitely make big moves in the recent period. , we must be prepared.”

"It's better to have armor but no driver than to have a driver but no armor."

This is indeed the truth. Since Ian has made up his mind, Qingchao has no reason to refuse.

But Qingchao still has other questions: "Boss, since there will definitely be big moves in Feiyandi in the recent period, how should we deal with it?"

Ian glanced at Qing Chao rather strangely, and said in confusion: "Didn't I say all the prophecies I made in Nauman City?"

"On the coastal side, I have entrusted the Marquis of Barton to dispatch the South China Sea Fleet to patrol. Let's not talk about the King of the Mountain for the time being. Xiou will patrol the surrounding mountains to ensure that we do not lose air superiority."

"As for us, we must guard the several areas between the Byson Mountains and the Flying Flame Land. We must at least have early warning towers to prevent the other party from being like the past, or even secretly sending in the Construct Knights. "

"ah……"

The blue-haired swordsman really didn't understand now. He was a little confused and said: "But boss, didn't you predict these methods? They should not use these methods that have been seen through..."

In response, Ian shook his head slightly.

"I just used the prophecy to confuse Fei Yandi." He said patiently: "These are indeed the flaws in the current Nanling defense line. I use the name of prophecy to speak out openly. One is to put pressure on the Nanling nobles. Forcing them to start making preparations also puts pressure on Feiyan, making them hesitate and think of other countermeasures."

"No one wants to carry out a plan that has long been discovered by the enemy."

"But the premise of all this is that we can really stop the enemy's invasion. Otherwise, if Feiyan Land attacks us head-on, we won't be able to stop it. What's the difference between predicting it and not predicting it?"

“Everything is just lip service and there is no actual change, so what’s the point of prophecy?”

According to Ian's plan, the armor produced by Xiahui Ling requires "heavy armor" with stable and strong firepower to first ensure the defense capabilities of key areas and fortress areas.

Now that Nanling is the weak side, Ian has no plans to take the initiative before it develops.

What he plans to do is to keep building towers among the mountain people and the Baisen Mountains to expand their horizons and transform them into tribal fortresses.

In this way, even if Feiyandi is really crazy, if they parachute a large force in Nanling, those light bastions with the indigenous gathering areas as the core will be enough to disgust them for more than half a year.

After receiving Ian's instructions and comments, both Scott and Qingchao left happily.

Although they all completed their tasks perfectly when Ian was away, they also knew very well that their handling could never be compared to Ian's.

Through Ian's choice, they can also learn Ian's methods and ideas for handling various government affairs, and become more proficient and reliable.

And when only Ian and Adbot were left in the conference room, the researcher of the dead king spoke.

Ian originally thought that the other party was like Scott Qingchao, and planned to report to him about his recent work, and asked Ian to guide the research direction, and also asked for funding...

But the result was unexpected.

"Ian."

Sitting next to Ian, Adlbert thought for a while, and then said somewhat cautiously: "The Archduke contacted me."

Ian frowned, he looked at the deceased king, and said cautiously: "When?"

The Grand Duke in Adelbert's mouth is naturally the former Western Grand Duke of the Empire, Split Thorin. He became the fifth level by virtue of the method of 'Death of the King', and took almost everyone in the entire Grand Duke's territory to sink into the hell in the center of the earth. King of.

Grand Duke Thorin was disappointed with the empire and the entire human society of Terra because of the Dark Moon turmoil and the death of his teacher Inaga II. Therefore, he made the extreme decision to exile himself from Terra.

Theoretically, this fifth-level person will remain in the center of the earth until his death.

But he contacted his most proud subordinate, Adelbert, again.

"……Because of me?"

Ian whispered: "Because of my activity in the Xenogeneic Research Institute? Or, 'Mahdi'..."

"Yes."

Adebert was obviously in a complicated mood. Archduke Thorin was indeed kind to him, but he did evil things that Adebert could never accept, and induced him to choose to become the dead king. Indirectly, It led to the tragedy in Avak Territory.

After calming down, Adalbert said: "The Grand Duke told me that you did a good job."

"Whether it is the development of the territory or your personal strength, you are worthy of being the disciple of the First Knight."

"He said that he also saw that Ian's embarrassing situation is mainly because the 'supporter' behind you is not strong enough... If there is a fifth-level strong person behind you, you will definitely not be as passive as before. situation."

Having said this, the Dead Lord took a deep breath. He was obviously hesitant, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "The Grand Duke told me that if you are interested, you can meet him in the virtual realm."

"He can consider cooperating with us and take action at critical moments... to help us solve some troubles that we cannot solve."

Ian was silent for a while. He did not lose his composure because of his reputation as a fifth-level powerhouse. Instead, he calmly said to himself: "...Interesting."

"Actually, Archduke Thorin has already helped us a lot."

Raising his head, Ian said to the complicated-looking Adelbert: "I have always been thinking about why Axel offered me such a high price, even if it was to seal the silence between Mahdi and me. If Mahdi doesn’t want to return to the empire, he shouldn’t be that high.”

"But looking at it now, the reason why he compromised... I'm afraid he guessed that the 'Mahdi' had already met with Archduke Sorin and even reached an agreement."

"But we didn't." Adalbert said seriously: "Ian, you are not going to agree to Archduke Thorin, are you? Although he is my former boss, in terms of technical expertise, he is far inferior to you, Ian. And his character is also very bad. It’s really strange that he suddenly comes to the door now..."

"As you said, Grand Duke Thorin is one of the best researchers in the world."

Adalbert stomped on them wildly, and Ian couldn't help but laugh: "I also think he must have ulterior motives, but it is definitely not malicious. He should be planning to exchange some intelligence and information with me...or maybe he is also in some danger. His decision-making needs me to predict for him."

After thinking for a while, Ian slowly said: "Moreover, what Grand Duke Thorin said is right. If we want to truly have the confidence to participate in the next great world, we definitely need a fifth-level person behind us."

"Ian..."

Adlbert was a little depressed, but he knew that this was a fact.

The empire is at war with the Flying Flame Land and the Cangtian Royal Court, and these two countries are also going to war with the Seven Cities Alliance and Guntrigram. The world war will officially start within one or two years, and then become more intense.

Although Xiahui Ling and Nanling are located in remote areas, they still have to deal with possible attacks from the Feiyan Land army. In this case, the King of the Mountain cannot take action at will.

Only forces with the fifth energy level are qualified to reap the benefits they deserve on the chessboard.

Ian can be sure that Archduke Thorin is obviously a man unwilling to be lonely - he is not like what he said, he just wants to lead his people to silence in hell.

Just like on the path of the spiritual disaster, the reason why the spiritual disaster Ian was able to successfully cultivate the 'Void Breed' was definitely related to Archduke Thorin.

This guy... probably just wants to watch the whole of Terra burn!

However, that is not what Ian wants to say.

"Don't worry, Albert."

Ian laughed, and waved his hand to reassure the other person: "I have told you before...I have two bodies now, one is the current 'fairy body', and the other is the body with The core of the dragon’s heart is immovable and fortified, right?”

Raising his hand coolly and pointing to the sky, Ian said to Adbot: "Although you may not believe it...but I have successfully persuaded the Extreme Wind Dragon King to sponsor me on Dragon Island."

"As expected, after a while, the four dragon kings of Dragon Island will choose to sponsor me."

"Although the Dragon Kings cannot leave Dragon Island at will, nor can they interfere with many things on the land of Terra, if they are just to support and solve troubles... I think Grand Duke Thorin's 'sincerity' is still far from enough."

"Dragon...Dragon King and Dragon Island?"

And Adebert's eyes widened. Although he had known for a long time that Ian's other body flew to Dragon Island, he didn't know the subsequent development: "But, how did you do it? That took hundreds of years. Come to Dragon Island and Dragon King, who almost never have direct contact with outsiders!"

In this world, the only people who can communicate with the Dragon Kings of Dragon Island are the leaders of the four orthodox religions and a few 'recognized' kings.

How on earth did Ian do it?

"Because I am a prophet!"

Ian said without thinking that this reason was very useful in Terra. He felt that no matter what problems he encountered in the future, he could use this sentence to explain: "In short, don't worry, we don't have any need to accept Archduke Thorin's request." ."

"but."

Ian raised his finger: "I will still go to the virtual realm to meet Grand Duke Thorin. It is not to discuss cooperation, but just to chat about his ideas and exchange some information... When the time comes, you can also go with me. ."

"Let's see together what conspiracy Grand Duke Thorin has."

"I'm just afraid of what the Archduke wants to do again..." At this time, it was Adlbert who felt embarrassed. He lowered his head and said, "I believe Ian that you will never make the same mistake that I did... You Much smarter than me.”

"I may not be as smart as you, at most I am just a little too smart.

Ian reached out and patted Adlbert on the shoulder: "These are all small things. Originally, I wanted you to report to me on the recent laboratory situation here... but the information about Archduke Thorin is indeed very important. "

After thinking for a while, Ian nodded. He stood up and solemnly said: "Follow me, Adalbert, to the virtual realm."

"Huh?"

Hearing this, the researcher of the Dead Lord raised his head. He couldn't help but be a little shocked: "Are you planning to meet Grand Duke Thorin now..."

"of course not."

Ian shook his head slightly and said seriously: "This time, I got the 'key' I need most in the Xenogeneic Research Institute... a 'chip' that can accommodate almost all souls and artificial intelligence, a real The computing center of pre-epochal civilization.”

"Adlbert, as the best researcher under my command, what I want to show you next is the society I want to shape, its true 'foundation' and 'first step'."

“That is also the real future of ‘Death King’ in my mind.”
