Chapter 1806 Ignition
"Sure enough, such a super-magic world is not that simple."
After communicating with Gu Jianzhili and signing the agreement, both parties felt much more relaxed. At least, the poor guardian god felt much more relaxed in front of Lu Ping'an.
Perhaps, in His eyes, Lu Ping'an was an evil ghost that He could crush and swallow at any time.
Although, Lu Ping'an can indeed do it.
"You need permission to do business. Well, there are no restrictions in this regard in our country. Most business activities are free."
After gaining recognition from the ancestral spirits, the Queen made a special trip to meet this mighty god who was as fierce as a dragon crossing the river.
She did not have the power of her ancestors, and could not see the power of the great god, but since her ancestors said so, she naturally believed it, especially the indigenous gods she had private contact with. They were all afraid of the power of this big guy during this period.
"If he wants to destroy your kingdom, it won't take a day, and no one will be able to stop him."
After he repeatedly questioned the extent of the danger, the information he got was enough for him to take it seriously.
Now, the queen was half-kneeling, sincerely offering tribute and greetings to the God, seemingly willing to give up everything, but what she got was a response of greed for money that she could not understand.
Business license? What is that? Could it be that the great god who is so high up in the sky that gods and ghosts scare away wherever he passes by actually needs money?
"In a sense, I am the God of Trade. I advocate equal trade. You don't need to worry too much about me. I don't intend to destroy your world."
Lu Ping'an was a little amused and helpless. The thoughts of the queen in front of him were transparent to him. He even thought of feeding the tiger with his own body if all else failed.
".I have a girlfriend. Don't think too much. Our world is a world where everyone is equal. Well, at least the law stipulates that everyone is equal."
Lu Ping'an sighed. The queen in front of him was tall, blonde, plump, and a lion orc, a bit like a big cat. It was indeed in line with his XP, but if he was scratched by another big cat because of it, it would really be a waste.
Even though they were so close, the other person was still just a "mortal", and those distracting thoughts were completely transparent to Lu Ping'an.
"An ambitious person? This world is not as peaceful as it appears."
The queen's seemingly humble behavior was just a test. After she found that the "great god" was quite easy to talk to, she started plan B.
She mentioned with great interest the abominations and wealth of the neighboring people, the humiliation suffered by her own country, and how the other country had a large population but no patron saint of sufficient weight. This level of political intrigue reminded Lu Ping'an of the classical Middle Ages. It seemed that this world really lacked books on politics and intrigue.
"Snapped!"
Smiling Lu Ping'an snapped his fingers, and a knight made of black flames picked up the queen and threw her out the door.
Listening to the noise outside, Lu Ping'an was too lazy to care. If someone really thought Lu Ping'an was easy to bully and was planning to escalate the conflict, it would not be difficult to change the king.
Lu Ping'an asked the Black Flame Legion to drive away the noisy guards. He had already seen clearly that a kingdom of this level had no meaning to him.
Even if there is no business license, if Lu Ping'an really wants to do something, the other party can't stop him. Even Lu Ping'an will not do it himself. He can just send a cadre to change the dynasty of this kingdom.
However, he vaguely sensed that something was wrong; the kingdom was too fertile, yet its defenses were too weak.
He had actually inquired about it before. There were indeed various divided kingdoms and territories here, but wars were very rare. It was not that there were none at all, but the intensity and scope were controllable, as if they were forcibly suppressed by some force.
"Is it the gods of both sides? No, it's not just that. There should be a higher level of power."
A rule-level is nothing to Lu Ping'an now. When he asked the queen to make a deal, what he respected was not her and her kingdom, but the hidden order of this world.
Lu Ping'an really couldn't figure out the truth, but after experiencing a lot, he knew that wantonly disrupting the order would definitely lead to backlash.
"Since this peace is driven by certain forces, anyone who arbitrarily breaks this peace, such as launching a unification war, will definitely be attacked."
As for what that order is specifically and how it works, it doesn't matter. The information Lu Ping'an urgently needs is about the essential level of this world.
"Dragon clan?"
In this world, it seems that only the dragon clan is truly free. Even the spirit of the ancient sword only understands its own little piece of land.
It is really inconvenient to live without written records. In the absence of written records, a stable social structure has been maintained, which itself has a lot of external forces involved.
"Could it be that because they have no knowledge and no ambition, the policy of keeping the people ignorant has been very successful?" Miss Lu blurted out something quite dangerous.
She had been collecting local materials and researching potions these days, and had suffered a lot of setbacks.
Not only are there too many medicinal herbs that have no records, but the various so-called secrets passed down orally are not only scattered and difficult to collect, but are also often contradictory and full of errors.
Helplessly, she could only verify again and again to separate the false and keep the true, and then, she was happy to receive various boiler explosions.
"I highly suspect that some beings deliberately left this world so primitive. I have asked around, and they have been like this for at least three hundred years."
Her potion pot explodes at least ten times every day, but she still can't produce any reliable results. She is really getting angry now.
"It has been verified. There are indeed many records of gods appearing here."
"It seems that we really can't mess around. There is a possibility that a true god will appear in the mortal world."
Some poems and heroic biographies were interpreted, and some obviously super-sized beings appeared on the ground.
Moreover, most heroic epics are about "guardians of order". An ambitious person or a demon king appears somewhere, and it is a traditional routine for them to work hard to expel and seal them.
Among them, the wise men and saints who serve as guides and predecessors are quite suspicious.
"It was simply that some people were trying to disrupt the order and false peace, so they jumped out to lead the clearing."
Many puzzles piled up together, but Lu Ping'an's most interesting "afterlife" had no answer yet.
There are some legends, such as a brave warrior who died and turned into a heroic spirit and returned from hell, and found that his bloodline was corrupted, and angrily killed the bully. Although the Soldier King series is a bit old-fashioned, it is indeed exciting and everyone likes to watch it.
Lu Ping'an was not in a hurry. He moved forward slowly and steadily. Stores were built one after another, and the intelligence network of all parties had taken shape.
The primary goal was to search for dragons. He met several dragonborns, but they looked like half-dragons. The strongest one, a three-hundred-year-old wyvern, knew nothing and was of little use.
But he knew that sooner or later he would encounter a key target. There should be someone of sufficient importance in the shadows staring at him. He hoped that they would come to see him on their own initiative before his patience ran out and he took drastic measures.
"After all, it's easy to start a war, but it's hard to stop it. Tsk, what a crow's mouth."
Lu Ping'an was patient and developed things slowly, but other churches and high-level explorers who came were not so gentle.
Wars of conquest ultimately lead to wars of attempt to tear outsiders apart.
