Unlike the Yao world, the Wu Ji Kingdom was filled with rocks and mud, and plants were particularly scarce, with more than half of the area being deserts and mountains.
King Wu Ji was completely oblivious to the fact that His Divine Kingdom was enveloped by the gaze of another deity.
This also verified Lu Yao’s prediction.
The main god space and mythological wonders were indeed gold, even if they connected to other worlds silently.
Isabelle continued, “Lord Uzi, our side would like to make a deal.”
“We would like to bring in a portion of the Uzi people – please rest assured that it is only to ensure the racial diversity of the world.”
The Wuzhi were natural underground guides and expert miners, and in a peaceful and stable Yao civilisation system, their talent and potential would soon be cashed in.
And as long as there were Wuzhi people, the relevant technology for the Earthbound Boat would also be available, buy one get one free.
Lu Yao aimed for this.
A dialogue box popped up above the head of the earth demon statue, “What can you offer?”
Isabel said, “Let’s end the war.”
“End the war ……”
The Earth Demon Statue was silent for a moment, “The fact that you have killed Apostle Shane is enough to show that you possess outstanding personal abilities. I’ve only entered the Hall of Gods for a short while, and I know little about divine wars, but I also know that once a divine war opens, it won’t stop unless one side falls into vassalage or is completely destroyed.”
He continued, “Now that the two worlds are partially bordering each other, the followers of the Glass God are massively invading and slaughtering the Uzi people. The soldiers of the Empire have seized a large portion of our land, they are building altars everywhere and are forcibly reversing the faith of the Uzi people, many of whom have been captured and killed ……”
King Wu Ji expressed his concern, and Lu Yao could understand.
Studying the World Encyclopaedia had allowed Lu Yao to already have further knowledge of this God War.
The regular way of divine warfare was a tug-of-war, rather than the blitzkrieg and direct dislike of the God Statue’s face that he was used to. Even the war-experienced Glass God, facing the clearly weaker King Wu Ji, had fought steadily, step by step.
Some of it was like a chess game where the king could not see the king.
There were two key reasons behind this: firstly, there was no information gap between the two sides, and secondly, it was to maximise the results of the battle.
When two Gods went to war, it was difficult for both sides to thoroughly fathom each other’s divinity and divine body characteristics, not to mention the props and miracle effects they held, so they were both very cautious. When engaging in battle, the Gods would go through a series of trials and tribulations before attacking in full force.
Those who possessed the [Spell of True Sight] like Lu Yao were obviously in the extreme minority.
The purpose of a divine war was to seize strategic resources.
The most intuitive resources were population and faith, and population brought faith, so looting population was also the most important spoils of war.
Plundering as many people as possible and then trying to convert their beliefs in order to obtain a continuous flame of faith, creating a long-tail effect. Even if these people were obstinate, they turned out to be the basis for breeding the next generation, which was also very good.
Other spoils of war included all sorts of rare resources, including a world’s unique mineral deposits, technologies, cultures and even all sorts of species that could generate revenue.
Early on in the engagement, the Bose God gave King Uzi a very direct ultimatum.
Either go to war, and this world will be destroyed.
Or submit, and become a vassal and subordinate of the God of Glass.
Just as King Wu Ji was trying to negotiate further with the Glass God, he gained insight into his opponent’s plot.
The soldiers of the Dauntless Empire had already spread the word everywhere that King Uzi was about to become a god of the Glass God, causing the hearts of the people of Uzi to be on edge and the will to resist to become increasingly weak.
King Uzi was a mature and wise man among the Uzis, but a newcomer among the gods.
Faced with the experienced god of divine warfare, whether it was the battlefield or strategy, he was completely suppressed.
The clouds of war and panic loomed over this world.
Today’s crisis was no longer the invasion of the Fearless Empire, and the Uzi people were gradually disintegrating internally.
Many of the clansmen couldn’t bear the fear and pressure, and either fled to hide in the underground where they thought no one was, or simply surrendered to the powerful enemy, changing their beliefs in exchange for safety.
King Uzi had also thought about this path of vassalage.
“Unfortunately that would not work either.”
“Another of my apostles, Atl the Sandman, infiltrated the capital of the Dauntless Empire at great risk. Over there, he discovered that the Bo God did not treat the captives well, but used the Uzis as materials for weapons and altars.”
“Atl learned that the Glass God had been constantly waging foreign wars. He used to have two subordinate gods in the past, but in the end they both disappeared. …… There are stone carvings in the empire that explicitly record that the laxity of these two subordinate gods angered the Bo God, and they were crafted by Him into altars, using the bodies of the gods to ignite the fire of faith.”
“In order to obtain this valuable information, Atl gave his life.”
“The Glass God is an incomparably fanatical conqueror, and war is how He rules the world.”
The earth demon statue paused for a moment.
“I do not know where you come from, but as a god of this world, I offer my thanks for your kindness. It just might not be so easy to end the war ……”
Isabel waited patiently for Him to finish speaking before saying, “As a sign of goodwill, our side has also brought a gift to meet you.”
“The two apostles of the Bo God, Yanihu and Karo, are no longer going to cause any more trouble for you and the Uzis.”
An exclamation mark popped up above the head of the earth demon statue.
“You …… have killed a total of three Apostles?”
He pondered for a moment, “In return, then I will tell you the technology of the Earthwalker Boat.”
“This underground movement tool can only be crafted by the Uzi people, and the pilot must also be a Uzi. Because the key internal structure requires [Wu], that’s why the Groundwalking Boat can constantly gulp dissolved sediment and propel the boat forward.”
Lu Yao had seen the structure and moving pictures of the Earth Walking Boat in [Rule Repair], and the following also described its detailed principles and the various ways in which it could move.
It was just that he knew that the theory was useless as well, it had to be understood and manufactured by the pixelated little people inside the world.
The easiest and most effective way to do this was to have the Uzi people who had mastered the technology pass it on.
The Uzi king wasn’t lying.
“Please take some of the children away. They are young in the clan, but they can also make and operate the Earthbound Boat, so that they can preserve some bloodline for the Uzi Kingdom.”
He selected a portion of the young Wuzhi people and told them to take the [U] wrapped in a stone box and black Wuzhi clay with them, and left with the two of them along with Isabel.
Before leaving, Isabel said, “Since you have already co-operated with our side, please be a little patient for a while, try not to confront the Glass God’s side head-on, retain the power of faith and population, and delay, harass, and pull the battle line as much as possible. We need a little time, but not very long.”
“Using this city as a line, the counterattack will begin here.”
……
Witnessing the departure of the apostle of unknown origin, a white shadow slowly coalesced on the ground.
King Uzi looked to the loyal earth demon statue behind him, “Zelkukku, have I made a wrong decision?”
“A god-sama is never wrong.”
The apostle said firmly.
Is that so?
King Uzi sighed.
The war that was his own was over. The Bo God had been firmly in control of the battle from the moment it started, and there was nothing he could do to reverse the defeat.
For a god, there was nothing more desperate than being powerless.
He himself was not a qualified god and could not even protect his followers.
He did not pin his hopes on outsiders whose friends and foes were hard to distinguish, expecting mercy from others could not be exchanged for survival. The Earthbound Boat created by the Uzi people was the value and foundation of their survival.
The brutal war had awakened King Uzi from the praises of his followers.
How unfortunate and lamentable those stagnant and idle years of the past were.
Originally, the Wu Ji Kingdom could have been a bountiful and powerful world, there would have been more creations like the Earth Walking Boat and the Black Wu Mud to be born, there would have been more cities like Uda City to stand on the ground, and there would have been more Wu Ji people to be born and grow up to be heroes …… But because of his own disregard of the world’s affairs, he turned into a situation that is now being wantonly insulted by his enemies.
Probably this is the punishment.
Relying on good luck to obtain the qualification of a god, and ultimately being deprived by bad luck.
Now, He will complete the last hold as the only god in this world.
