Skilled Pikemen Don't Leash

"System, what did you do?"

[Half an hour ago, when your power of the ancient gods ran away, Esdesh was your contractor. If you keep her in this world, I am afraid that she will be affected by the blood of the ancient gods and cause harm to allies, so Send it back to its original world.The power of the blood of the ancient gods should not be strong enough to influence across the world, so she is the safest in the world of "Zhan Chi". 】

[So, what happened to the disconnection?Are you hiding something? 】This time it was the voice of the Assassin system. This master, who was at odds with his own system, also took the opportunity to attack this time.

[Is this not within the scope of the program?As long as you don't backstab your allies, it's not a violation.Now that the mission is complete and no one in the team has been harmed, even if I unilaterally cut off contact, you have no right to intervene. ] The system of Yi Guang's family replied in this way.

"Okay, okay, haven't our missions been completed?" Huan Ye's voice came, "In this case, everyone should be happier, why bother to quarrel over such a trivial matter."

[The main reason is that this matter is too strange, which makes people have to think a little more.Of course, since the task is completed, we naturally have no reason to stay in this world, let's go, Magic Night. 】Assassin system said so.

"Oh, Lancer, Rider, let's take our leave first. I'm going to go to Chaldea with Fujimaru Tachika and the others. Do you want to come?" Huan Ye said politely, "The real Chaldea Oh!"

"Ah, let's go again next time, I'm not in the mood right now." Yi Guang smiled wryly, "Leave me the coordinates, let's go together next time."

"Uh, okay, let's go together next time if we have a chance." Huan Ye bid farewell to Yi Guang, "This mission is very pleasant, and I hope to continue to cooperate with you next time... Well, Lancer, you'd better make yourself big. Solve the tentacle problem, it's not very good. We don't care, but there must be other people around you."

After speaking, Huan Ye and her system left the communication channel.

"Well, since the task has been completed, everyone will get together and get together." Rider also said at the same time, "This singularity is slowly recovering, so there will be no business for us in the future. Ah, I am also planning to go there Chaldea, I am very interested in the 'Sheba' system, and I want to study it. If I have the opportunity next time, I still hope to cooperate with you, and I wish you all the best."

Saying so, Rider also exited the communication channel—they all left this singularity.

At this moment, Yi Guang suddenly felt a little cold.

[Don't worry, it's just the power of the ancient gods, it's not impossible to solve it.Let's go back to the world of "Zhan Chi" for a little repair, and then make plans.Don't worry, the rampage of the power of the ancient gods is just an accidental phenomenon, the power in your body is still dominated by the divine power of the sun, it's okay. 】

"Yes, is it?"

【Of course, you should believe in my abilities. Even if I have problems, I will help you solve them in other ways. 】The system said softly to Yi Guang.

Even if it's a deal with the "First Beast" who intends to destroy mankind, even after you know the truth... No, you must never know this, and all problems must be resolved before the "Grand Time Temple" happens.

Getia, let's see who's method is better.

Chapter 236 I, Lanza, Work Overtime

"The existence of the Son of Chaos has disappeared from this world."

In the pure white temple outside the world, Getia, who returned to the throne, glanced at the second singularity with his "clairvoyance" again.The distorted Rome has begun to slowly recover, and outsiders are leaving one after another.Getia cast his gaze on a certain red-haired figure for a few more seconds, and then let out a sigh of unknown meaning.

"I still have doubts about this, whether we can believe the words of that unknown existence." In the void, the voice of the Demon God Pillar began to echo, "Why do you want to make a deal with that existence?"

"The great cause we are waiting for does not allow any reason for failure. No matter what the thing says is true or not, we all need to be prepared."

Another voice, or another demon god, participated in the communication.And after it, the rest of the Demon God Pillars also made their voices, and the spiritual network between the 72 Demon God Columns reverberated in this temple again.

"We have the inheritance of King Solomon, the spiritual foundation of King Solomon, and the body of King Solomon, and we know everything under clairvoyance, how could it be..."

"Shut up! Even a clairvoyant has secrets that cannot be penetrated. If what the outsider said is true, then we have to guard against it."

"Even if the other party's information is false, we have already practiced the possibility of the newborn Demon God Pillar on that weird Chaos Egg. It is an excellent test product, and we have nothing to lose in this regard."

"Exactly, exactly, a strange existence mixed with children of chaos, heroic spirits, and human beings. If the transformation experiment we do on him is successful, we will be able to transform into sufficiently powerful, newborn compatriots."

"And according to the contract, when the great cause we are waiting for starts, the newborn Demon God Pillar will also come to this temple to help us complete the final task of this stage together."

……

"Enough is enough, there is no need to discuss the completed contract." Gaitia rubbed his brows, "We should proceed to the next topic, what do you think about the content of the unknown transaction? Or, how should we Deal with it, Romani Archman..."

Listening to the debate among the 72 demon gods in the spiritual network, the "Extremely Good Beast Gaitia" who had the appearance of a magic king on the throne showed a hint of impatience.Although it is a collection of 72 Demon God Pillars, representing the collective will of the Demon God Pillars, this Demon God King also has his own will.If the 72 Demon God is too noisy, he will indeed feel a little impatient in his heart.

The spiritual communication between the Demon God Pillars fell silent in an instant, as if the name Gaitia mentioned had some special magical power and deterrent power.For a while, the originally noisy temple suddenly became silent, just like the starry sky around the temple.Gaitia, who was on the throne, also closed his eyes and fell into a state of contemplation.

In the temple outside the world, the masterminds behind the destruction of human history fell into silence, while Yi Guang, who had no idea that he had fallen into the sight of the Demon God King outside the countless dimensions, returned to "Zhan Chi" The world, this place that has been away for half a month, can be called "home".

"Master Lansa, you are back."

With the welcome of her little maid Shayou, Yi Guang entered the house after nearly 20 days--for this world, the time he left may be shorter, but there is no doubt that at least half a month has passed. .The system didn't forcibly correct the flow of time between the two worlds. After all, this is Yi Guang's base, and everything Yi Guang does here will take a long time to have enough influence.Social change often takes years, or even decades, to see results.Even if Yi Guang now draws up a huge plan to evolve the world from a feudal empire to a modern industrial country, it will take more than a hundred years to see the results.

Of course, as an important military minister, it is impossible for Yi Guang to disappear for half a month without any problems.However, before going to Rome, Yi Guang had already thought of this aspect. After destroying the headquarters of the Revolutionary Army, he gradually handed over power.Among those subordinates who received his blood treatment, he selected a few capable subordinates and transferred most of his powers.Will and Lan were assigned by him to the real power department for work and experience, while Tazmi, who was somewhat lacking in character, continued to fight on the front line... Yi Guang looked forward to this somewhat reckless young man growing up as soon as possible .

Naturally, Yi Guang did not encounter any criticism for delegating power.On the contrary, as the most powerful Emperor's envoy in the empire and the deputy commander of foreign troops, Yi Guang's self-delegation is more like a relief to the general and the emperor.After all, the high-ranking people are somewhat suspicious. If a powerful Tegushi has too much power in his hands, he may be suspicious of the high-ranking people.Especially now that the ministers and the revolutionary army have been severely damaged, the external pressure has suddenly decreased, and the imperial power has been consolidated again, new grievances may also arise among the original allies.

After all, even the general who was the pillar of the royal family and commanded the entire army of the empire was suspected by the imperial power and set a lot of restrictions.What's more, what about Yi Guang, a young military officer who came from the bottom of society and has only made his fortune for five years?

This is the inferiority of human beings, which cannot be eliminated or changed. This kind of dirty behavior, like original sin, always runs through the beginning and end of human history.From this point of view, it is probably reasonable to want to destroy human beings like Getia or the Lion King.It's just that, as a human being, this is too cruel.Just like the last sentence of the FGO plot, Fujimaru Tateka yelled when facing Getia's interrogation: "We just want to live."

Esdeth was not at home, just like she reported to herself at the second singularity, because the nobles were quite dissatisfied with the emperor's new deal, so a large number of nobles rebelled.Esdes is carrying out intense anti-insurgency activities in other places, so Shayou, who is a little maid, is the only one at home recently.However, according to the letter she sent back and handed over to Shayou for safekeeping, in these two days, Esdes asked the class teacher to return to Beijing.

"So, what kind of decree did the emperor issue to force the nobles to rebel?"

Thinking of this, Yi Guang came to his office.Sure enough, seeing the mysterious return of the boss who hadn't appeared for half a month, the whole Anbu was slightly shocked, which made Yi Guang somewhat helpless.Fortunately, this did not affect everyone's work. After expressing their unexpected emotions a little bit, everyone returned to their jobs.

"General Lanza, you haven't shown up for a long time." It's Lan who appeared opposite Yi Guang now. Although he joined the Anbu after destroying the Revolutionary Army, Yi Guang was still suspicious and sent many civil servants to the office. The work was given to him.This former rural teacher did not disappoint Yi Guang either, he indeed has considerable talent in government affairs.At the same time, as Liwa left, he was the head of the Anbu's civil service, and he was also the one with the closest connection with the government in the Anbu, so it was reasonable for Yi Guang to ask him about various recent affairs.

"During the time the general was away, the emperor implemented a new policy, which seems to have offended a group of nobles, especially those local nobles based in the east." Lang paused and then said, "The emperor thought that the area around the mausoleum of the first emperor was empty. On the grounds that a large amount of land is idle, the nobles, wealthy merchants and their families in the two provinces originally occupied by the revolutionary army and the three eastern provinces were ordered to move to the outskirts of the imperial capital around the imperial mausoleum. The minister of construction supervision was also appointed to design a camp for the construction in the north of the mausoleum of the first emperor. A new city with an estimated population of about [-] to accommodate the local nobles who plan to migrate. Well, you are also a smart general, you should understand why those nobles rebelled, right?"

Mausoleum system?

Hearing what Lan said, Yi Guang immediately understood the key point.Historically, in the mausoleum system of the Western Han Dynasty, the government used the excuse of guarding the imperial mausoleum to set up a mausoleum city near the emperor's mausoleum near Chang'an City of the Han Dynasty, and then used the authority of the imperial power to force local powerful nobles to move from the local area to live in the mausoleum city.Needless to say, the purpose of this move is to force the nobles to leave their roots and weaken their strength. At the same time, they are placed around the capital for easy monitoring. This two-pronged approach greatly suppresses the power of local tyrants and stabilizes the centralization of power.

Unexpectedly, after accepting the knowledge he instilled, the little emperor's first move was actually to implement this set of plans.However, it is reasonable to think about it carefully. After all, the system of the empire is somewhat similar to that of the Western Han Dynasty.Although the mausoleum system reduces the power of the nobility, it is much milder than other plans. As the beginning of a series of reforms, it is quite a suitable plan.

"Well, it seems that our little Majesty has begun to grow after what happened to Minister Ernest." Yi Guang smiled slightly, "But, what step can he achieve? ?”

"It seems that Your Excellency agrees with His Majesty's New Deal." Lang suddenly understood Yi Guang's attitude, "Then, does Your Excellency want to interfere in this matter?"

"Interfering?" Yi Guang shook his head slightly, "Soldiers are not allowed to interfere in politics. This is the ancestor's precept, Sergeant Lan, don't forget it."

"Uh, well, this subordinate understands." Lan was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, "Then, some of the official documents in the past half month still need to be reviewed by adults, you should deal with them as soon as possible."

"Oh? So there is such a thing?" Yi Guang was stunned, and then forced a smile, "Didn't I say that you can handle these things on my behalf? If you are worried, you can go to Will, or Report directly to the General."

"But you are still our leader." Facing Yi Guang, who was determined to make money, Lan said with a smile, "There are some important matters that still require your signature. I have sorted out the official documents for the past half month for you." Then, the general hopes that you will report to him after handling these official documents."

So, after Yi Guang moved to Rome for more than half a month, on the first day he returned to the world of "Zhan Chi", he began to work hard overtime.

Chapter 237 The Plan of "Sun God Cult"

Back in the empire, Yi Guang ushered in a long-lost busy life.Because he had been away for half a month, a large amount of official documents had piled up. Even though the general and Lan helped to deal with some of them, some of them still needed to be handled by him, the leader of Anbu, who was absent from work.Therefore, on the first night back in the world of "Zhan Chi", Yi Guang spent it in his office, and it was already the next morning when he finished processing all the official documents.

Fortunately, he is no longer a human being. Even if he stayed up and worked all night, he didn't feel sleepy at all, but he still chose to fish.Apart from the laziness left over from the human age, he was also thinking about a very important thing.

About the future of this world, but also about your own future.

[World Management Mission: The Prestige of the Millennium Empire, the second stage.

Mission content: With the power of the host himself, he will influence and change the whole world, and guide the development of the times.

Quest Reward: As the host's influence and changes on the world become more and more profound, more management permissions of this world will be slowly unlocked. When the world management permissions are opened to 100%, the host will become the creator of this world. 】

When he defeated the revolutionary army, he completed the main task in this world, but the system's task release program issued him a new second-stage program.However, Yi Guang was at a loss as to how to accomplish this task.

Although a series of knowledge from modern society has been instilled in the emperor of the empire, it is obviously not enough.After all, the emperor is just a symbol of the imperial power system. Apart from this, he is just an ordinary human being.His orders, his will, need to be fulfilled by all who abide by this system.But obviously, no matter how wise the king is, no matter how clear the era is, there will always be people who will fight against the imperial power for their own interests.Especially in the face of changes in the social system, those with vested interests in the old system will always try their best to destroy and hinder the establishment of the new system.Even if the person leading this change is the emperor, they will choose to take the risk.

Among other things, the former emperor of this empire died in the assassination of Minister Ornest precisely because he touched the interests of the elder faction. Of course, Yi Guang would not be unaware of this bloody lesson.

"You can't say that the hope of social change is placed on the royal power." Yi Guang sighed, "Now it's just the initial suppression of the local nobles, and some people are blatantly raising the flag of rebellion, let alone the later..."

No matter how wise the emperor is, no matter how far-sighted he is, he is only one person after all.Social change requires a new group to lead.Just like the bourgeoisie who overthrew the feudal system, they were born in the tide of the great voyage, then grew up under the influence of the Renaissance, and finally matured in the roar of the Industrial Revolution, and finally they almost controlled the entire world.

Yi Guang does not have the ability to create a new class for the time being, but he can spread the seeds of new ideas.He can instill strange knowledge into the emperor, so he can also carry out such transformations on others—oh, don’t get me wrong, this time Yi Guang is not going to confuse the princes and ministers, but he just came to the imperial capital on a whim. The established "Sun God Sect".

This religious group established by Yi Guang on a whim at the beginning became part of the intelligence agency he established when Yi Guang became the leader of the Anbu of the military.A group of prisoners who received blood therapy and mind control changed their appearance under his operation and became the priests of the order. They developed believers in various parts of the empire and recuperated. Today, the footprint of the "Sect of the Sun God" has covered half of the country. an empire.In most cities and towns of the empire, the strongholds and missionaries of the "Sect of the Sun" can be seen.Just in line with the principle of "shooting the first bird", Yi Guang tried his best to let them act in a low-key manner, and coupled with the cover of the "Tranquility Road" that was preparing to do something in the original plot, he was not taken seriously by the upper echelons of the empire. However, in the impression of most imperial officials, they are just a group of strange but kind-hearted magic sticks.

"Although it always feels weird to lead the whole world to change in a religious way. But for me now, this should be the best way, right?"

Although from the history that Yi Guang knows, religion often plays a disgraceful role in the progress of civilization.But there is one thing that cannot be ignored, that is, the root cause of any religious persecution is always human beings themselves.Whether it is the religious leaders who issue the orders, or the clergymen who carry out those terrible orders, or the fanatical and blind populace, they are all human beings.

God, never spoke, or God, never appeared.

Any religion, at the very beginning, is born with some kind of good wishes.In the teachings of any religion, the discussion of the good parts of human nature can be found.As stated in those teachings, God loves the world, and they are the condensation of the best expectations of human beings.

However, when the exclusiveness of religion itself is combined with the desires of the clergy and secular power, evil will follow.Just like the Christianity that was originally popular among the poor in the Roman Empire and gave people comfort, after being supported by the government and became the so-called state religion, it went into darkness, and finally created a "dark age" in Europe that lasted for thousands of years. Countless scientists and thinkers who pursued the truth were persecuted and died by the church.The eight Crusades caused countless crimes and killings.

What is more terrifying than ghosts and gods is the human heart... This sentence, no matter where it is placed, is ultimately correct.Of course, the one who is guilty cannot be the silent ghosts and gods, but the greed and desire of human beings themselves.

"Whether it's a religion or a country, it's just an organizational form after all, and it's nothing more than that." Yi Guang thought to himself, "The way of the Mechanicus Cult must not be followed. It's too extreme. Think about it carefully. Thinking, that kind of thing could also be a kind of religious persecution. What I need is a force to guide society, not an inquisition that drives society forward."

Yi Guang thought for a long time. After carefully considering the composition of various similar groups and organizations he had seen in books and various literary and artistic works, and after reviewing a large amount of information through the system, he chose one with the same strength as his own. The religious organizations under the Cthulhu mythology system serve as a template for the future development of the "Sun God Religion".

Forgive... ah no, it's the Brotherhood of the Green Flame.

This is a religious group in the Cthulhu mythology that worships the outer god "Green Flame" and "Excellent Green Flame" Tulzscha (Tulzscha).

Although it comes from the Cthulhu mythology with the theme of distortion and chaos, this organization called "Green Flame Brotherhood" has more reliable teachings than most normal religions.In addition to worshiping the evil gods of the Cthulhu line and having a religious organizational structure, the various behaviors and guiding ideologies of this organization are closer to scientific research organizations.Even when Yi Guang saw the information about this organization for the first time, he couldn't help but yelled—"You told me this is the cult of evil gods?! You're fucking kidding me!"

In the setting of Cthulhu mythology, this organization called "Green Flame Brotherhood" originated in Egypt 700 years ago, and used the sky and stars as their objects of worship.Historically, they participated in the construction of the pyramids, participated in the ideological debate in ancient Greece, proposed the "heliocentric theory", invented hot air balloons...even the shadow of this sect was present in the process of human beings inventing the internal combustion engine.

Worshiping the starry sky, yearning for the sky, and yearning to fly all the time, these are the followers of "Green Flame" Turzcha.This sect believes that the god they believe in calls out to his followers in the depths of the cosmic starry sky, and only the servants who can reach it can receive the gift of this powerful outer god.Therefore, it has become the highest purpose of the "Green Flame Brotherhood" to leave the earth with the power of human beings, leave the earth, and go to the side of the great gods.Therefore, from the moment they were born in the human population, they tried to explore the mysteries of the starry sky and flight.

It can be said that every advancement in astronomy and dynamics in human history has been interfered and influenced by this mysterious and wonderful evil sect.Especially after entering the modern society, with the development of aviation and aerospace technology, the influence of this sect has extended to most scientific research institutions and academic foundations almost all over the world.They are amazing, but they are very determined to promote the development of human spaceflight technology and astronomy.

Well, as a religious organization that worships evil gods, these guys are really weird.

But such teachings and principles of action are very much in line with Yi Guang's own wishes.He needs the "Sun God Religion" to act in such a direction, and gradually exert influence in this world and spread progressive ideas.Only when new ideas start to germinate among the people, then whether it is a reform at the upper level or a revolution at the lower level, will it be logical.

Of course, in order to generate new ideas, it is not enough to rely solely on propaganda. There must also be huge interests to promote it. A "gold rush" like a great voyage is a must.However, Yi Guang still has no clue about this, and the entire empire has just wiped out the elder faction nobles, and the emperor has also implemented a series of policies to appease the people.The class conflicts are slightly eased, and there is no social pressure like the European Age of Discovery.

"Sure enough, there is no rush to promote social development." Yi Guang thought for a long time, rubbing his face, "This task is really difficult... Sigh, take your time."
