Chapter 432 Gods
"So, Lord God, are you willing to be our patron saint?"

"No." Shangluo replied, "But I can help you deal with the foreign gods and bring you both to the same level, and then you can solve the problem on your own."

"Ah! This is okay! This is okay! This is the best."

"Don't be in a hurry to celebrate. I told you that you have to be an Outer God before I can manage it. I think your knowledge is pretty good. You should know what an Outer God is."

"You mean, outsider?"

"Yes." Shangluo nodded, "I will only manage foreign gods. If it is a god born in your world, that is your own business and I will not interfere. Whether you submit or rebel, it doesn't matter. Be part of your own world order."

"That must be the outer gods! I guarantee you. Because the priest's spells are ineffective against them."

"You mean, yours?"

"No, I am just the shaman of the Water Snake, not a priest. Because we don't know when the Water Dragon will return, we cannot become a priest directly serving the Dragon God. We can only explore his location during the journey of the soul—— This is a shaman. But unlike our Insula, Carniki City is a city of the Tyran Kingdom on the Water Continent. There are altars and priests of Behemoth, the Dragon God of the Earth, in the city. But after the arrival of those external gods , the priests of the Dragon God were expelled, and they enslaved everyone in the city."

"Wait a minute, isn't this a continent of water? Why is there a Tyrannic city?" Shangluo noticed the possible violation of the agreement: even if the two snakes wear crowns and become dragons, the contract they signed with Shangluo still has not expired.None of them has the right to leave their tribe.

"This is indeed a continent of water. However, when the three of us established the Dragon Worship Cult, we entered into the "Elan Agreement": the sky is the kingdom of Leviathan, the dragon god of the sky, and the earth is the kingdom of Behemoth, the dragon god of the earth. . The Water Dragon who has not yet come, he rules the seven seas. Although this is very reasonable in doctrine. But God, we water people cannot really live in the sea. After all, we can only breathe air. Maybe the Water Dragon has come. In time, the kingdom of our water tribe will also come. But now, our Atayal water tribe does not have a crowned dragon and does not have its own kingdom. Everything on the earth is within the domain of the Tyran Kingdom, just like the sky belongs to the Atmospheric Shepherd. The field is the same.”

"It sounds like you've suffered a big loss?"

"We don't have our own dragon to speak for us, so we can only accept the "Elan Agreement". However, we also have citizens with full rights in the Tyron Kingdom. This is not a big problem. It is just our affairs outside the tribe and the tribe. Conflicts between tribes must be adjudicated by Tyran’s fortress cities scattered throughout the country. Kaniki is one of the fortress cities on the Water Continent.”

Phaethon on the side tilted his head: "It seems quite reasonable? I didn't expect that the way they manage themselves is not bad, and they manage it in a decent way. They actually developed a global governance system so quickly - —They have a unified religion: Dragon Worship. However, there are three internal factions. They recognize each other as orthodox, and they all recognize the same "Elan Agreement" as the principle for governing the world. Among them, the Tyron Kingdom, which governs the earth, has formulated a It is a system that relies on military hegemony to adjudicate conflicts and resolve disputes. It is simple and bright, fast and direct, and has the style of the Romans. And the city of Carnage seems to be as reliable as nails."

Shangluo nodded slightly and asked the tree in front of him: "The priests of the Earth Dragon who are stationed in the fortress city you mentioned, how powerful are they?"

"Oh, God, unlike us snake shamans who can only affect the soul world. The priest of the Earth Dragon can show the authority of the dragon - as long as he taps his staff on the altar, everyone will be affected by the power of the dragon. I was so shocked that I couldn't move my body. Just showing this kind of authority was enough to make everyone obey their ruling." "It seems to have become stronger." Apollonia thought about it, "I Remember at the beginning, they failed to show any authority."

"Then where did their 'authority' come from?" Shangluo asked, "I remember I didn't grant it to them."

"You did not grant them the authority to control the world - but the bodies of these people were given by the original Horrible Land. Now that he has become the dragon of the earth, his priests can certainly share this authority. Let their bodies Staying still, this is too simple. This is also irresistible, because they themselves are just myconids. The current form is completely given by the dragon, of course, it must be completely at the mercy of the dragon. But now."

She looked at the big tree in front of her: "This kind of tree shape has returned to the original form of the myconid. That kind of immortal body can't be killed even if it is punched out. It appears in this way. , the dragon priests may have nothing to do with them. This is probably one of their trump cards in negotiations, and the water tribe will not be at their mercy. After all, their souls were given by the water snake. Even if they do not depend on the body, they Their souls can also continue to exist in the form of the 'Tree of Life'. Interesting. It seems that the Water Snake has indeed left them a way to 'escape' from this system. This is really a precious gift that allows them to survive no matter what. There is room to advance and retreat. No. [-] ball, you are actually very smart."

Ball No. [-] did not speak, and remained silent inside the ball.

"But having said that, if you can get rid of the dragon's authority, you are indeed an alien god." Shangluo nodded, "It seems that the instructions of the Spear of the Sun are indeed very correct. I found what I wanted to see at once. It's amazing. ah."

"Sorry to bother you." Mingshu suddenly said, "Although I feel very scared to interrupt the conversation of the gods. But, gods, we still don't know your identities. Can I be lucky? Do you know where you are in the theogony? So that our descendants can recite your name."

"Okay." Shangluo nodded, "I am. Let me think about it. Ah, that's right."

He looked at the tree: "I am the God of Thunder."

"Thunder God? Aren't you the god who judged the snakes at that time?"

"No, that's my, um, my brother, Sun Xingzhe, and I am his younger brother, Zhe Xingzhe. Oh no, I'm talking nonsense. Anyway, just forget the name, it's not important. Just remember the relationship between us. Well, I'm his brother. I'm not him, but I'm similar to him."

"I understand, you are his younger brother. So Lord Thunder God, who are the people next to you?"

"They are all gods of the Thunder Gods. The mission of the Thunder Gods is to eliminate the foreign gods who come to make trouble in this world and maintain the natural order of this world. If there is any similar invasion of foreign gods in the future, gods or angels from the Thunder God series will come. deal with."
