Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty Routes Determined(1/2)
There were not many gods who just came in, and there were only less than twenty people in total, but this was quite a lot of a large group of gods, because the gods invited this time were invited according to the standard that each gods could only send two gods to participate, which means that the number of people in these gods at the scene was divided by two, which was the number of gods. Therefore, although there were not many gods present, they represented a large number of gods.
When I saw us sitting inside, the group of the gods who had just come in immediately greeted me very politely. It was not because these guys were enthusiastic, but because they were like the two angels who reached out to me, they were frightened by the situation in the City of Precepts.
Although the city of Decree, except for a few super small gods who did not participate, the slightly more formal gods all sent people to the city, but this is a foreign institution after all, and each god tribe sent only a few people. The fewer gods may have only one or two members here, and the number of people is not more than ten. Not only are these people very small, but once they enter the city of Decree, it becomes a semi-independent existence and has very little communication with the gods. Therefore, although it is said that the forces where the gods are present are located are here, they themselves know very little about the city of Decree, which is also the result of the discussion among the bigwigs of all parties after discussion, because the fewer people know the city of Decree, the safer it is here.
It is precisely because of intentional or unintentional news that most gods actually don’t know about the City of Decree. This time they came here to do business and suddenly discovered that the City of Decree is such a terrifying place. Gods like them are usually high-ranking existences within their own sphere of influence, but when they came here, they found that the weakest in the entire city were them. Whether other people were guardians or patrolers, even the few who were moving things that looked like servile people emitting terrifying power fluctuations.
Because I saw too many people who were so scary along the way, these guys now dared not have any pride. They felt like little foxes here, and they were surrounded by people who could not afford to offend, so they could not think of any other way to deal with it except to clamp their tails and behave like humans.
I didn't care much about the reactions of these guys, but greeted them politely, and then said, "I'm so sorry, summoning you all at this time is really a trouble for everyone."
I'm very kind of talking here. The gods over there are even more polite than me. They are all busy saying things like "You're welcome, it's a simple task". Anyway, they are the kind of super easy to talk.
After everyone was polite, I started to arrange these people to sit down, wait for everyone to sit down, then guard it out and close the door. I said, "I'm going to invite everyone to come this time. It's because I have some private matters that I need to ask for help from you. And this matter requires the help of multiple gods. If only one of them agrees to my request, it actually has no practical significance. This time the matter is more urgent. So I can't communicate with you one by one. This is because I'm not very polite, so please don't mind."
"Where are there." A god present immediately said when he heard my words: "President Zi Ri has something to do, so we have to help, because we are afraid that we are too weak and cannot help! As for etiquette, it is for outsiders to see, so we don't have to pay attention to these things."
I have to say that these gods are all spiritual spirits, the elite among the gods, referred to as spiritual spirits. In just a few words, we are directly called our own people. The ability to build relationships is really first-class. However, this kind of thing is good for me anyway. Of course, I will not go against others, but will continue to follow his words.
"You're welcome. Since you don't treat me as an outsider, I'll tell you directly. This time, the matter is not to everyone contribute their efforts, but to you IOU."
"Borrow the way? How do you borrow this way?" A god asked in confusion: "President Zi Ri, you have to pass through our sphere of influence, don't you say hello, right? Have we said we won't let you live! Usually those foreigners are also going back and forth in our sphere of influence, and we didn't say anything? What about you, President Zi Ri?"
I knew the other party would be confused, so I immediately explained: "Of course I won't bother you. This time I mainly borrowed the way for others."
"Others? I don't know which other person the person President Zi Ri mentioned?"
"The power of the Lord's Holy See."
"The Holy See?" asked a god in surprise: "What do you mean is to open our borders and let the army of the Holy See pass through our sphere of influence?"
"I know this is not easy to deal with, otherwise I wouldn't have brought you here. In fact, this matter is difficult, but it is simple. The Lord's Holy See's power is not for themselves, but to go to Russia to help us do something at the request of our Frost Rose Alliance, but we are all in this area. It should be clear that there is a big place between the Lord's Holy See's power and Russia, and these places are under the jurisdiction of everyone here. Therefore, if the Lord's Holy See's power goes to Russia to help us do things, we can only ask you to help lend us a passage. Although the entry of the army is a very thoughtful question, we are just passing by and will not be here.
You stay within your sphere of influence, so there is no loss for you. Of course, I know that although this matter itself will not have any bad impact on you, it is always necessary to let others let the army of other forces enter the territory of your own country. This is indeed a strange thing. All said, I know that you cannot be anything I say, but what I want to say is that if you are willing to help, I can come forward to sign a guarantee agreement to ensure that the power of Jehovah's Holy See is just passing by and will never have any impact on your sphere of influence. In addition, if any force is willing to borrow a way for us, we can give certain benefits. It is considered to be tolls."
My words made the tribes present silent, not because I was strangely unable to accept my words, but because they were calculating the risk value and the return rate after execution.
Although all the people present came from small gods, they did not have a lot of information. At least they knew that our Frost Rose Alliance is currently in war with the Liberal Gods, and our guilds and Siberian Gods are also a bit dirty. At this time, we use the way to let the power of Jehovah's Holy See run to the land of Russia to help our guilds. Needless to say, everyone knows that they must be heading for the Siberian Gods. This kind of thing does not need to be said explicitly at all, and those present can basically analyze it.
Because everyone can analyze it, these guys know that the power of Jehovah's Holy See will not have much impact on the way. After all, our purpose should be very clear. For this large-scale strategy, normal people will definitely give up those small profits, so it is basically certain that what I said is the truth, because according to normal reasoning, we have no motivation to deceive them. There is no such condition.
Since we can be sure that we really just have to borrow a way to pass, that means that they don’t need to pay anything in this matter. After all, the road is there, not that we will lose it after walking once, so this matter does not need to pay anything for these gods. However, at the same time, I have promised that there will be benefits in the future, that is, they don’t have to pay anything in practice, but they can get benefits.
This kind of thing can definitely be done after a little bit of measurement, but it is a science to agree to us. Everyone present is spiritual, so they calculated their own situation in detail, and finally started to exchange opinions with each other with their eyes. Of course, because I am still here, I dare not show it too obviously, so I can only analyze how it is more appropriate.
These guys are very fast, and in less than thirty seconds a god tribe spoke. "We Anko god tribe can allow the power of the Lord's Holy See through our control. We will provide you with guidance and necessary supplies, but we want to know how President Zi Ri intends to compensate us for the risk of opening our borders."
This is a transaction with clear price tags, so I didn't intend to hide it, and said directly: "My opinion is to settle the compensation for the Anke God clan directly with the power of faith."
"What? You use the power of faith to settle the settlement?" The opposite side heard that we actually used the power of faith to settle the settlement, and stood up directly from the position.
I looked at him in confusion and asked, "What? Don't you accept the power of faith? Then let's change..."
"No, no, no, we need the power of faith. This suggestion is good, but I don't know how much do you want to give?" The other party was afraid that we would really pay in another way, so he quickly interrupted it. You should know that for the gods, anything can be bought, but only the power of faith can be encountered, so the power of faith is higher than anything else. For the gods, this thing is the hard currency among hard currency, and it absolutely maintains value.
"So you have received the power of faith? I was shocked. If you don't accept it, I will have nothing to give it to you." I said, "The power of faith in our guild is not large. This time, we asked the forces of Jehovah's Holy See to come forward and pay some power of faith as reward. And you also know that our guild is fighting and needs the power of faith to supply the chaotic and order gods of our guild, so we don't have much power of faith at present. But for this strategic plan, we have to squeeze out one million units of faith from the total budget as a transaction limit. However, the power of faith in this million units is not for someone, but is used to pay the value of the entire channel. That is to say, all the gods who promised our request can only be allocated from this, and it is impossible to get so much power of faith alone."
Although the gods present calmed down a little after hearing my words, they did not completely calm down because it was already a huge sum of money for them. You should know that the power of faith is a rare thing for most gods. Our guild can give out so much at one time, which is really beyond the expectations of these gods.
The Anke tribe who nodded first immediately shouted: "We can accept this agreement. As for the allocation quota, I suggest that we divide it according to the length of the route. If the sphere of influence has more distances, we will give him a little more."
The Anko tribe had just finished talking about the other gods, and they immediately started arguing, because the Anko tribe is the god of Ukraine. You can tell by looking at the European map. If you want to pass by the least country from Italy to Russia, Ukraine is a country that must pass by. And because Ukraine is much larger than the surrounding countries, they must account for half of the journey. In this case, fools are willing to divide the distance with them according to the distance.
Another tribe shouted: "I suggest that the number of participating countries is divided equally."
This is a god from Slovenia. Their country is the smallest among these countries. What’s more important is that from Italy to Russia, they may not necessarily have to pass through Slovenia on the way, and they can completely bypass it. And it doesn’t increase much distance. So of course they are willing to divide it according to the number of people, because they will take advantage of it.
Both of these are typical for themselves and not caring about other people's types, and they are too extreme, so other countries will not do it anymore. So these gods instantly became a quarrel.
The two angels from the Lord's Holy Seen at the quarrels in the venue that were quarreling in the venue, they couldn't help but whisper: "Is this too embarrassing? Is there any dignity of the gods?"
I couldn't help but turn around and smile when I heard the angel behind me, saying, "You are too few involved in this kind of thing. When I established the City of Precepts, I had a much more quarrel than this. At that time, your boss was crying, poor and cute, and had done all the more embarrassing things than this."
The male angel stood up as soon as he heard me saying something bad about Jehovah. But I didn't react, but the gods over there were shocked and found that his target was not his and he started to quarrel again.
I looked at the angel with a smile and asked, "It's all here. Haven't you figured out the situation yet? God doesn't say the supreme, even the Lord God is not. If I am willing to gather at least one hundred of them here, and those who can destroy the Lord in them can at least have so many slaps in my face. Do you think there is anything that Jehovah can do to be arrogant? Besides, you are just a subordinate of Jehovah. To be honest, I asked you to sit here because of the Lord's face. We are a group of high-ranking gods discussing issues, but you are not even qualified to come in."
"you……"
"Think about your own position and don't always hold your airs. This is not the place where ordinary people live. Here, the gods are ordinary existences. If you have any opinions on this, go out and find someone to challenge. As long as you can defeat anyone in this city, even if you are responsible for sweeping the floor, I will be considered as good as you."
My words are very exciting, but what is even more exciting is that this is the truth. As I said, although this guy is an angel and is considered a high-level angel among the power of the Lord's Holy See, he is really not a single one here. Even the people who swept the road here are super thugs from various gods. No one can beat him here. It would be nice to not have a tail between them, and he dares to be arrogant. I will teach him a lesson now, which is for me to cooperate with the power of the Lord's Holy See, otherwise I will care about him to die.
Although I was very unwilling to accept it, the angel became quiet after being ridiculed by me because he really had no confidence at all! Although my words were so ugly, that was the fact that those who practice cleaning in this place were better than him. If he went out to find someone to challenge him, it was basically a matter of seeking death.
Seeing this guy quiet down, I just laughed it off, then turned to those guys who were still arguing about the issue and said, "Okay, everyone has no result, so why not listen to my opinion?"
These guys all know that this time is equivalent to a mission released by our Frost Rose Alliance. They are taking on the mission, which means that our Frost Rose Alliance is the employer, so our opinions are definitely very important. The guy nodded very seriously and said, "Since that's the case, let's listen to President Zi Ri's advice first."
Seeing that everyone was quiet, I spoke and said, "Okay, I can only say that this matter is a little beyond my expectations. If you let the Lord's Holy See's forces go to Russia, you don't need all of you to agree to borrow the way. The reason I summoned you all was because I was worried that some people would not want us to go there, so I had to prepare more reserve plans so that even if there was a detour, I could at least go around. But what I didn't expect was that you were so easy to talk to and agreed to let us borrow the way. I felt embarrassed myself, because we would definitely not be able to go through every country."
"So what is President Zi Ri's opinion?" asked impatiently.
"My opinion is very simple. We first plan a few routes, and then connect the countries that the route needs to pass and write them on a note. Then we will draw lots in groups. Which route will be drawn, then I will draw 100,000 units from the power of faith of the million units and share them evenly with those countries that have not been drawn. This is a compensation for the rest. The remaining part will be discussed by the countries on the route. After all, there are not many countries passing by, and it will definitely be faster than the current group of people discussing. What do you think?"
After I finished speaking, the representatives of the gods began to think. Because I don’t know who will draw who can’t draw. So it’s hard for everyone to determine which side of their interests are, so they can only discuss things. From the perspective of fairness and justice, my proposal is actually not a problem, so those guys think it’s not bad even if they can’t put themselves in either side. So they expressed their support for my suggestions.
After everyone's confirmation, the rest will be simple. Just plan the route directly. Although there are many routes from Italy to Russia, the shortest ones are actually only a few. In this case, our route is really simple. In the end, we have five routes, and except for two routes that are completely independent, the rest have crossed.
The rest of the route is to draw lots after I choose the route. Because I am the leader of this matter, there is no conflict of interest between the gods in these countries and me, and I don’t need to favor anyone. Therefore, the most fair way of drawing lots was to determine the best route quickly. The route decided by the set is the worst of the five best routes, but after all, these five are relatively good routes, so even the worst of the five plans is considered good.
According to the routes drawn, Jehovah's Holy See will leave Italy from northern Italy, and then pass through Austria, Czech Republic, Poland, Ukraine and finally enter Russia. This route is the longest of the five alternative routes, and it is necessary to cross a mountain range on the way. The route itself is not easy to walk. The most important thing is that the four countries are not easy to coordinate. According to the best route, you can actually reach Russia by just passing through three countries. In this way, one less country will be more distributed. But since you have already agreed to divide this way before, there is no way.
Of course, the countries that were not drawn were quite frustrated, but because they had agreed before, it was not easy to argue now. Besides, it would not be a waste of time. There was at least 100,000 faith power to be divided. Of course, after these gods' forces were divided, each force could get less than 10,000 units, but it was quite good to get so much faith power by just doing nothing, so they had no complaints. Although they were unwilling to give up, they could only share the faith power and leave the City of Precepts.
After these irrelevant gods left, the gods of the four remaining forces obviously had their expressions flying. After all, there were still 900,000 units of faith power that allowed them to divide. For example, Ukraine, which is extremely large in area, can get at least 250,000 units of faith power, and it is impossible to be unhappy.
"There are only four of you left. Let's talk about how to divide it?"
"What we say is probably going to quarrel again, so I think it's better for you, President Zi Ri, to decide." The Ukrainian god said: "You and us have no conflict of interest, so it's up to you to decide we think we are the most fair and just. We can't even argue with each other, so it's better for you to say."
I thought what the other party said was right, so I didn't refuse. "Since you all believe me, then I'll talk about it. In fact, I have already had a decisive method for this allocation plan. The area and size of your four families are different, so some people will definitely not be convinced of my distance or area. Of course, even division is impossible, so I want to combine your ideas and use both methods."
"What does it mean to use both methods? This distribution is either equally divided or divided by distance. Is there a compromise plan?"
I nodded and said, "You are right, there is really. My idea is this. Don't you four families share the power of faith in these 900,000 units? I just thought, let's take out 400,000 of them, 100,000 yuan, and the remaining 500,000 yuan will be divided equally according to the length of the route. Whoever has a longer route will be divided more. In the end, if there is an endless opportunity to get the best one, you won't care about the slightest amount anyway, right?"
After hearing this, everyone thought about it for a moment and agreed, because my method was indeed a little bit taken into account for everyone's situation. The small gods also knew that they could not take as much as countries with such a large area, and those countries with such large area knew that they could not really occupy so much, because in essence, they just opened the border, and the distance did not have much practical significance. So, my method has actually taken care of them.
After all the four countries nodded, the rest was simple. After we drew the route on the map, we asked the four families to go back to arrange guidance personnel separately. Then I took the two angels around me to leave the conference hall, but we did not leave the City of Commandments. Instead, we went straight to the city center.
Originally, I felt very stressful when I was outside the city. But after passing the outer wall, the two angels began to sweat coldly. The ground in this place was full of messy trap runes, and even the patrol team had to avoid the movement of the trap arrays, because these things were large traps designed for the gods, and even if these high-level gods stepped on them, they would have to take half of their lives. Such a terrible trap, even if it was in standby state, no one was willing to try it. That was definitely not a happy thing.
After walking a short distance after passing through the second city wall, we entered the area where the third city wall was. After passing through the third city wall, we entered a large maze. When we got here, all kinds of magic traps suddenly disappeared. However, the two angels were not relaxing, but were so nervous that they even started to breathe.
Although there are no traps on the ground in this place, the almost physical energy fluctuations in the surrounding air and the more terrifying ring of precepts leaked the aura of law made the two angels feel that they were about to be suffocated. The aura that was so powerful that they suffocated was constantly increasing with our movement. Whenever they thought this was the limit of energy, they immediately found that the previous step was nothing, and the subsequent step was the real limit.
Such constant mental shock made these two angels really difficult now. Finally, the male angel couldn't help asking: "President Zi Ri, where are we going? I'm really afraid that I will collapse. Can we wait for you here?"
The originally proud angel has started to speak respectfully now, which shows how scared he is now. However, I did not agree to him, but said, "Don't worry, it's just a few steps away. And haven't you noticed it?"
"What did you find?" the other party asked with difficulty.
I stretched out my palm and made an upward stance and took a breath, then said, "Didn't you find that there are a slight ray of law power in it in the energy here?"
The male angel hadn't reacted at first, but the female angel next to him said in surprise: "Hey... it's really... this... this..."
This girl was already surprised by what she found, but this was a normal reaction, because when I brought the guys in there, they were also like this, even worse than this female angel.
In fact, although the energy pressure in this place will make the gods with sharp energy sensing feel great pressure, it is actually like the gravity training room in science fiction movies. If a person keeps exercising in an environment of twice the gravity, then once he adapts to that environment, when he returns to the outside world, he will feel like he has suddenly become a superman. He can jump to the roof with a random jump, and he can lift up a few hundred kilograms of things with one hand. These are the pressure brought by double gravity that forces the body to be constantly strengthened to adapt to the side effects of this pressure.
The energy field in this city of precepts is like the gravity training room for the gods. It looks uncomfortable on the surface, but as long as you adapt to this environment, you will find that your understanding of divine power and the strength of divine power will increase by several levels. More importantly, the energy field here is not simply energy, and there is also a trace of fragments of the power of law. Therefore, staying here for a long time can not only speed up the growth of their own strength, but more importantly, there is also a chance to comprehend some similar laws abilities. Although lower gods cannot master the power of law like upper gods, they can comprehend some fragments of law and then obtain some abilities similar to laws. For example, the main gods of major gods almost have one to two kinds of laws abilities, and this is what makes them different from ordinary gods.
This kind of thing that only the bosses of all races have hope of getting is presented there like this. Do you think this angel is not excited?
Ignoring their reaction, I turned around and continued to move forward after the female angel understood, and at the same time said, "Follow up, don't get lost. The consequences of going the wrong way here are very serious."
The angel who looked faced quickly followed me as soon as he heard what I said, but his heart completely changed. He was paying attention to collecting information on the power of the law in the surrounding energy. Although these fragments were incomplete, a little bit of fragments could also give them some inspiration. This is very important for their growth.
Just as they were busy collecting information on the power of the law, we suddenly left the maze area, and then a fourth city wall appeared in front of us.
"There is a fourth city wall in this place?" the male angel asked in surprise.
"This is actually not the fourth city wall." I said, "This is actually a very special device, but it is a intensive task for the bosses. If you two don't want to be silenced, don't ask anything. Sometimes it's better to be a little confused."
"I understand!" Both angels nodded in agreement. Although they were scheming, they were not stupid.
Seeing that they understood, I continued, "You are waiting for me here. I will enter and call a few people. Come out immediately. You just happen to use this time to practice here, which is very helpful for improving your strength."
"Yes." These two angels didn't hesitate to me at all, and sat down and started practicing.
I smiled and shook my head and turned around and walked towards the gate on the huge city wall. The gate on this 50-meter-high city wall is not the kind of gate that everyone sees to open a hole in the city wall. Instead, the entire city wall itself is the gate. When I walked to the front of the door, the center of the city wall suddenly split a crack from the middle, and then the walls on both sides began to fold and shrink one by one like Transformers, and soon opened a passage enough for me to pass in the center. After I passed, the walls on both sides immediately expanded and completely closed the gap. The two angels outside just took a look at this and did not pay attention to it. After all, I said this was a secret before, and they knew too much.
When I walked out of the city wall, the first thing I saw was a circle of 108 towering pillars. These pillars were all made of some kind of alloy, with a diameter of more than fifteen meters, and the houses were built on them were large enough. The height of the metal pillars was 120 meters, which was much higher than the outside wall, but strangely, these pillars were not visible from the outside, and they had to come in to see them.
The surfaces of these pillars are painted with dense runes, and the runes on each pillar are different.
There is a small altar at the top of each metal pillar, and above each altar, there must be a high-level god standing or sitting.
In fact, the gods on these 108 pillars are not only guards, but also practice here. What I said to the two angels before is not a joke, it is true. The ring of precepts represents the origin of the world, and you can always feel the source state of all things in this world around it. Therefore, the improvement of cultivation, especially the realm and understanding is very exaggerated. Moreover, what the two angels don’t know is that the fluctuations they felt outside are just a slight fluctuations leaked here.
These 108 pillars are actually a seal. They are defensive weapons when the City of Precepts is invaded, but their main function is to limit the energy leakage of the ring of Precepts. In fact, the entire city walls of the City of Precepts are all used to do this. These city walls are like sound insulation barriers, blocking the internal energy one by one, so as to ensure that the power of the ring of Precepts only exists in the City of Precepts and will not spread everywhere.
Although the five city walls are used to isolate this energy, the energy of the ring of precepts is too strong, so the five city walls are far from enough. This circle of pillars is the strongest seal used to weaken the power leakage of the ring of precepts. They can say that 90% of the energy leaked from the ring of precepts are blocked within this circle of cylinders. The remaining 10% can barely suppress the power fluctuations of the ring of precepts to normal levels after being intercepted by the five city walls outside. What the two angels sensed was the fluctuations outside the fifth city wall, which was more than half less than 10%. At most, it was only about 4%, but even so they almost couldn't stand it. This shows how much pressure there was.
To be continued...
