Blessing from the goddess at the beginning, technology VS magic

Rhett sat in his seat with a melancholy look on his face. He had already learned the news that the civil strife in the West Bay Federation had begun, and the initiator of all this was himself, using the method he hated most before - America Commonly used color revolutions.

In this way, the attention of the two empires and the church will soon turn here.

Ah~! I'm so annoyed. I originally just wanted to live a relaxed and happy life in another world, but now I'm only seventeen or eighteen years old, and my hair has already started to fall out! The goddess also said that the devil was killed more than 160 years ago, but how did those cultists emerge?

While Rhett was still thinking, Pearl came in and said:

"Your Highness, good news. Our troops have entered Blackwater Village, but there are some conflicts with the local residents."

Rhett shook his head and said: "Conflict? Didn't I already say that we should have a good relationship with the local people? We have done well before, so how can we not do it after entering Blackwater Village?"

"That's right, Blackwater Village is in a special situation..."

“Let’s talk about it in detail”

Pearl opened the folder on hand and began to say:

“As far as we know, Blackwater Village is a village that has been closed for a long time due to its special geographical environment. The village’s only channel for information exchange with the outside world is the West Bay federal envoy who comes once a year.

And the special envoy’s arrival has only one purpose, to collect the silver orbs from this year’s Egwene grass, which is the only crop grown in Blackwater Village.”

Rhett asked: "What about their food?"

"Transported by special envoy"

"But that's the Grand Canyon, and the problem is how to carry out large-scale material flow."

Yes, Red must figure this out, otherwise how will the oil be transported out?

Pearl said: "We are not very clear about this yet. According to the villagers, only the village chief knows, but the village chief now refuses to cooperate with us."

"Okay, let's move on to other news. I know the function of Egwene grass, but why can't such a powerful thing be grown elsewhere?"

"The villagers are unwilling to say anything about this. It seems to be a secret. We have also found the black water you want, but they refuse us access."

Damn it, Rhett cursed in his mind, luckily I'm not really America.

"Let's do this. You ask the frontline troops to exercise restraint. I'll go there in person in a few days."

Pearl said worriedly: "Is it too dangerous for you to go? This matter is still..."

"No" Rhett stood up and waved his hand and said, "I have made up my mind. I will take Miriam there. There is no need to worry about safety. Besides, I have my own defenses."

Looking at Red's leaving figure, Pearl shook her head helplessly.

Two days later, Rhett brought Miriam, who was wearing a red and black cloak, to Blackwater Village. Then he saw a strange sight. The villagers and the Nirvana Army seemed to be naturally divided into two areas, ignoring each other.

The military and civilians were separated. Rhett didn't like to see this scene. Miriam on the side seemed to notice the displeasure on Rhett's face, so she asked:

"What's going on? Is there someone ambushing you secretly?"

"No"

"What's the reason for that?"

"Look at the scene in front of you. You even cooked and didn't know how to share it with the people."

Rhett saw that the villagers' bowls contained vegetarian dishes and little soup, while the Nirvana soldiers ate meat and eggs.

"Is there any problem? It's a good thing that we didn't set fire to rob other people's villages."

When Rhett heard this, he stared at Miriam: "Is this what my army looks like to you?"

"No, no, I've known for a long time that the Nirvana Army is different from other armies. That's why there is such a scene. I really don't think there is anything strange about it."

"Then it's time to show you what my ideal army looks like. Let's go to the military headquarters now!"

Rhett arrived at the military command post without any obstruction. Gu Fuying also came to greet him with a smile, but Rhett gave him a bad look.

Gu Fuying also understood why he was angry. After all, his Highness emphasized discipline the most to the army.

"Your Highness, we all remember what you said, but it's not our fault. Those villagers didn't talk to us at all!"

"Isn't sugar-coated temptation useless?"

"You won't eat it! Everyone's saliva is dripping on the ground. Even if I send it to them, they won't take a bite."

"Since communication is impossible, how did Pearl get the information?"

Gu Fuying explained: "That was the first villager. He talked to us a lot, but we couldn't see him the next day. The other villagers also didn't say a word to us at that time."

Red: "There must be something fishy in this. Has the village chief talked to you?"

"He has been in the temple and refused to meet us."

Miriam: "Temple? Which god do you believe in?"

"It seems to be called the God of Rare Things"

Miriam: “Never heard of it.”

Rhett: "What a strange name. By the way, did you call them together and tell them our purpose?"

Gu Fuying: "Of course I said that we are here to cooperate. We can provide you with a better life, and we will not force you to plant Ewen grass every year like the West Bay Federation. As a result, the next day, Everyone has become like this."

"Okay, then don't do anything today and wait until tomorrow to follow my instructions."

After walking out of the command post, Miriam asked, "So what are we going to do tonight?"

Rhett raised his lips and said: "Of course it was exciting eavesdropping. They must have secretly discussed something that night. Logically speaking, they do not belong to the West Bay Federation. Firstly, they did not provide soldiers, and secondly, they did not pay taxes. The two are more like a cooperative relationship, so why would you refuse if you change your partner and your life will be better?"

"Okay!" Miriam said excitedly: "Tonight is the time for me to show off my skills? I said I would be your magic consultant, but I haven't used magic for a long time, and I'm almost rusty."

Rhett looked at Miriam confused: "Huh? I didn't tell you to eavesdrop?"

"Huh? Then you brought me here just as a guard?"

"if not?"

"Then how are you going to sneak in and eavesdrop?"

Rhett took out a small box. Inside was a bionic mechanical spider about 2 centimeters long, with a miniature camera that could monitor and eavesdrop.

"As long as this is connected to the display screen, we can eavesdrop here openly!"

Miriam looked at the spider dejectedly: "Is this thing science again?"

"Yes! This is the product of science!"

"Hey! I was the strongest person with the title of Red Nightmare back then, but now I am of no use at all."

Rhett comforted him: "Don't worry, you will have a chance to appear. I feel that the temple... is not simple."
