  Chapter 875 Because I am a prophet! (Ask for a monthly pass!)

   This matter is very simple.

  Ian has not been in Xiahui Territory recently, Scott and Elder Manya are respectively managing the Chongling Sect of the Empire Territory and the Mountain People, which naturally led to differences in the development of the two sides.

   After all, neither of them is the envoy of the Dragon God.

  Besides, for some reason, videos related to 'Mahdi' and 'Dark Gold Dragon' were sent to Xiahui.

  Although there are some differences, the dark gold dragon does look like a steel dragon.

   This image, plus the legend that was circulated among the mountain people before Ian took control of the mountain people, a considerable number of mountain people think that this is a symbol of the Dragon God's coming return.

   Between the returned Dragon God and the Dragon God's messenger, who is the boss?

  Isn’t that the question here?

  Ian has already guessed who this legend originated from... There is no doubt that it is the Iron Dragon himself. Who else?

   This dragon had a battle with Ice Menglong back then, and the two sides switched homes. Ice Menglong stayed on the top of the snow in the Baisen Mountains, while Qianganglong stayed in the crystal cave under the Alien Research Institute.

Before dying, the Iron Dragon had a communication with the last echo, and the Iron Dragon asked the last echo to use his flesh and blood to create the "Dark Gold Dragon", and then return to the Baisen Mountains to announce his return and the news of victory .

   This is probably a joke that Qian Ganglong intends to play with the mountain people: I am dead! Eh! I live again!

   But this joke lasted four hundred years later, and it was no longer the last humor of the real dragon, but a big crisis enough to create a sect split.

   "Kowtow to Qianganglong, I not only have to help him take care of the mountain people, but also have to deal with such a lot of problems left by him... He is really irresponsible!"

  Thinking of this, Ian couldn't help gnashing his teeth: "These people are really too idle, but it's easy to solve."

   After all, both Mahdi and the dark gold dragon are in his hands now.

  Even if there is an unresolvable conflict between the Mountain People faction and the Imperial faction, he can directly parachute Mahdi and the dark gold dragon, and declare that he, the "Dragon God Messenger", is the real host who will teach the people on behalf of the gods.

  As for the dark gold dragon, it is nothing more than the heir of the gods. Ian can fully represent the steel dragon and the dragon son.

  In this way, a trinity pattern of the Dragon God, the Dragon God's heir and the Dragon God's messenger is formed, completely absorbing the entire Dragon God belief into Chongling Sect.

   But to put it bluntly, they are all free... These mountain people really started to deal with heresy when they were full.

   "Next time I will come forward and educate those mountain people well."

  Ian said in a deep voice: "The education of the new generation of mountain people must also be stepped up. The Dragon God can exist as a cultural totem, but it should no longer involve the Chongling Sect and Xiahui Ling."

"Scott, go and make arrangements. Invite the most experienced mountain priests over here. I have to have a 'meeting' with them to let them know that when the Dragon God is not around, I am the emissary sole representative."

   "Promise to complete the task, my lord."

Scott immediately responded to this, but after thinking for a while, he said cautiously: "But my lord, there have been some discordant voices among the mountain people recently. They said that in the past, even the envoys of the Dragon God had Discuss decisions with the chiefs of each tribe."

   "What you are doing now... is actually a dictatorship."

   "Dictatorship?"

Ian was still a little angry at first, but after hearing this, he showed a dazed expression, and he sighed: "This is the spies from Feiyandi working hard again... We are an empire, and the word dictatorship is justified, right? Well, only the alliance system at Feiyan Land will think this is a bad thing."

   "The images of Mahdi and the dark gold dragon, they probably passed it on, right? After this group of people knew that I was a prophet, they didn't engage in infiltration and sabotage, but started to engage in these little secret tricks."

  That's what I said, but sometimes, small tricks are more troublesome than frontal destruction and fighting... Internal division is always more terrifying than frontal enemies.

   "Tell the tribal chiefs who want to accuse me of dictatorship."

Making up his mind, Ian waved his hand: "I won't talk about democratic consensus with a group of people who can't control their own food. I am a prophet and I can see the future. If they don't have another prophet and don't want to die, then Better listen to me."

   "Understood, my lord."

  These are actually trivial things, and they are chaos that occurred when Ian was away. As long as Ian is around, no one would dare to say such things.

   But this is actually the reason why Ian's control over the mountain people has not reached its peak.

  Ian was too weak when he became the envoy of the dragon god, so that he didn't show much prestige at that time. Although he led the mountain people to repel the flying flames, people believed in his wisdom, not his strength.

  I have to find an opportunity to show off my muscles... Moreover, it is time for Chongling Sect to show a little bit of its own 'uniqueness', which is completely different from the mountain people's dragon **** belief.

  Thinking secretly in his heart, Ian began to listen to Qing Chao's narration about the army building situation of Xiahui Territory.

  Before becoming the earl, Ian already had an armored squad and an independent regiment.

  In addition, as a baron, he can also form a militia and guards to ensure the safety of the territory.

  Xiahuiling's military construction is currently more expensive than expensive, and all economics are given priority.

   Even so, Xiahuiling also has a charging rifle shooting brigade of 300 people, and a magnetic storm armor squadron of 70 people.

  In addition to this, including Ian's own armor 'Cyclops', the other two armors are also being manufactured.

   "Build a few more."

When Ian heard this, he gave instructions: "Xiahui Territory has been upgraded to Earldom, and the surrounding Mountain People Autonomous Region is already my territory. Three sets of armor are not enough, at least twelve sets can barely meet my requirements. "

   "If it weren't for our lack of money, I really want to build 30 units and come to an armored brigade."

   "Boss, the one who can drive the armor is just me, Scott and the old shadow."

  Qing Chao seriously responded: "Among those mountain people, Elder Manya and the others are trustworthy, but they can only find three people to drive the armor."

   "Although our territory has enough resources to build and buy after the mountain people's mines are in operation...but the driver can't come."

   "Then spend a few years training. Qingchao, those 'reserve sublimators' taught by you will all be able to drive armor in the future. This is your task."

Ian said calmly: "As for the recent period, we must ensure that we have enough armor reserves—do you think that what I predicted in Nauman City was all false? Flameland will definitely make big moves in the recent period. You have to be prepared."

   "It's better to have armor but no driver than to have a driver but no armor."

  The truth is indeed the truth. Since Ian has made up his mind, Qing Chao has no reason to refuse.

  But Qingchao still has other questions: "Boss, since Feiyandi will definitely make big moves recently, how should we deal with it?"

  Ian gave Qing Chao a weird look, and said in a puzzled way, "Didn't I say all the prophecies I made in Nauman City?"

   "On the coast, I have entrusted the Marquis of Barton to send the South China Sea Fleet to patrol. Leaving aside the king of the mountain, Xiou will patrol around the mountains to ensure that we will not lose air supremacy."

"As for us, we must guard the several areas between the Baisen Mountains and the Flame Land. At least there must be early warning towers. We can't let the other side be like the past, and even secretly send the Constructed Knights in. "

"ah…"

  The blue-haired swordsman really didn't understand this time, he was a little puzzled and said, "But boss, didn't you predict all these methods? They probably wouldn't use these methods that have been seen through..."

   Regarding this, Ian shook his head slightly.

"I just used the prophecy to confuse Feiyan." He said patiently: "These are indeed the shortcomings of the current Nanling defense line. I use the name of the prophecy to say it openly. One is to put pressure on the Nanling nobles. Forcing them to start preparations also puts pressure on Flameland, making them hesitate and think about other countermeasures."

   "No one wants to carry out a plan that has long been seen through by the enemy."

   "But the premise of all this is that we can really stop the enemy's invasion. Otherwise, if Feiyan is coming head-on, we can't stop it. What is the difference between predicting and not predicting?"

  "Everything is just lip service, without actual changes, so what's the point of prophecy?"

  According to Ian's plan, the armor produced by Xiahuiling needs a 'heavy armor' with stable and strong firepower, first of all to ensure the defense capabilities of key areas and fortress areas.

  Now Nanling is the weak side. Before it develops, Ian has no plans to take the initiative.

  What he intends to do is to keep building towers in the mountain people and the Baisen Mountains, to open up the field of vision, and to carry out tribal fortification.

   In this way, even if Fei Yandi is really crazy, in the Nanling airborne force, those light bastions centered on the aboriginal gathering place are enough to disgust them for half a year.

  Received Ian's instruction and evaluation, Scott and Qing Chao left quite happily.

  Although they all completed their tasks perfectly when Ian was not around, they also knew very well that their handling could never be compared with Ian's.

  Through Ian's choice, they can also learn Ian's ways and ideas of handling various government affairs, and thus become more proficient and reliable.

   And when only Ian and Adalbert were left in the conference room, the Dead King researcher spoke.

  Ian thought that the other party, like Scott Qingchao, planned to report to himself on his recent work, and asked Ian to guide the research direction, and ask for funding by the way...

   But the result was unexpected.

   "Ian."

  Sitting beside Ian, Adbert thought for a while, and then said cautiously: "The Grand Duke has contacted me."

  Ian frowned, he looked at the dead king, and said cautiously: "When?"

The Grand Duke mentioned by Adalbert is naturally the former Grand Duke of the Empire, Split Sorin, who became the fifth energy level by virtue of the method of "dead king", brought the entire Grand Duke with him and almost everyone sank into the **** in the center of the earth King of.

  Grand Duke Sorin was disappointed with the empire and the entire human society of Terra because of the turmoil in the dark moon and the death of his teacher Inaiga II, so he made an extreme decision to exile himself from Terra.

  Theoretically, this fifth energy level will stay in the center of the earth until it dies.

  But he contacted his most proud subordinate, Adbert again.

"…Because of me?"

  Ian said softly: "Because of my activity in the Alien Research Institute? Or, 'Mahdi'..."

"Yes."

Adalbert was obviously in a complicated mood. Grand Duke Thorin did show him kindness, but he did evil things that Adalbert absolutely could not accept, and induced him to choose to become the dead king. Leading to the tragedy of Avak Territory.

   After calming down, Adbert said: "The Grand Duke told me that you did a good job."

   "Whether it is the development of the territory or your personal strength, you are worthy of being the number one knight disciple."

"He said that he also saw that the embarrassing situation for you, Ian, is mainly because the 'supporters' behind you are not strong enough... If you have a fifth-level powerhouse behind you, you will definitely not fall into the passive situation like before. situation."

   Speaking of this, the Dead Lord took a deep breath. He obviously hesitated, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "The Grand Duke told me that if you are interested, you can meet him in the Void Realm."

  “He can consider cooperating with us and take action at critical times...help us settle some troubles that we can’t settle.”

  Ian was silent for a while. He didn't lose his composure because of the title of the fifth energy level powerhouse, but calmly said to himself: "...Interesting."

   "Actually, Grand Duke Sorin has helped us a lot."

Looking up, Ian and Adalbert said with a complicated expression: "I was always thinking why Axel would charge me such a high price, even if it was to seal the mouth between Mahdi and me, so that Mahdi should not return to the empire, it should not be so high."

   "But looking at it now, the reason why he compromised... I'm afraid he guessed that 'Mahdi' has already met with Grand Duke Sorin, and even reached an agreement."

"But we didn't." Adbert said seriously: "Ian, you don't intend to agree to Grand Duke Thorin, do you? Although he is my former boss, he is far inferior to Ian in terms of technical expertise. And the character is also very bad, it's really strange that he suddenly came to the door now..."

   "What you said, Grand Duke Thorin is one of the best researchers in the world."

Ian couldn't help laughing: "I also think he must have ulterior motives, but it's definitely not malicious. It should be to exchange some intelligence and information with me...or he is also in danger. To make a decision, I need to prophesy for him."

   After thinking for a while, Ian slowly said: "And. Grand Duke Sorin is right. If we want to really participate in the next great world with confidence, we definitely need a fifth energy level behind us."

   "Ian..."

  Adelbert was a little depressed, but he knew that this was the truth.

  The Empire is at war with Flameland and the Royal Court of Heaven, and the two countries are also at war with the Alliance of Seven Cities and Ganterigum. The world war will officially start within a year or two, and then intensify.

   Although Xiahuiling and Nanling are located in remote places, they also have to deal with possible attacks from Feiyan's army. In this case, the King of the Mountain cannot take action at will.

   Only forces with the fifth energy level are eligible to reap the due benefits on the chessboard.

  Ian can be sure that Grand Duke Thorin is obviously a person who is unwilling to be lonely—he is not like what he said, he just wants to lead his people to silence in hell.

   It’s like on the way to the spiritual disaster, the reason why Ian the spiritual disaster can successfully cultivate the ‘Evil of the Void’ is definitely related to Grand Duke Thorin.

  This guy... probably just wants to watch the whole of Terra burn!

  However, what Ian wanted to say was not this.

   "Don't worry, Adalbert."

Ian laughed, and he waved his hand to make the other party feel at ease: "I told you before...I have two bodies now, one is the current 'fairy body', and the other is the dragon body The body of the immovable strong city with the core of the heart, right?"

   Raising his hand smartly, pointing to the sky, Ian said to Adalbert: "Although you may not believe it...but I am already on Dragon Island, and I have successfully persuaded the Jifeng Dragon King to sponsor me."

   "Unsurprisingly, after a while, the four dragon kings of Dragon Island will all choose to sponsor me."

   "Although the Dragon Kings can't leave Dragon Island at will, and can't interfere with many things on the land of Terra, if it's just to support and solve troubles... I think Grand Duke Thorin's 'sincerity' is far from enough."

   "Dragon... Dragon King and Dragon Island?"

And Albert's eyes were wide open. Although he knew that Ian's other body flew to Long Island, he didn't know the follow-up development: "But, how did you do it? It took hundreds of years Dragon Island and Dragon King who almost never communicate directly with outsiders!"

  In this world, the only ones who can communicate with the Dragon Kings of Dragon Island are the leaders of the Four Orthodox Churches and a few 'recognized' kings.

  How on earth did Ian do it?

   "Because I am a prophet!"

Without hesitation, Ian said that this reason is very useful in Terra, and he feels that no matter what problems he encounters in the future, he can use this sentence to explain: "In short, don't worry, we don't have any need to accept the request of Grand Duke Sorin .”

"but."

Ian raised his finger: "I will still go to Void Realm to meet Grand Duke Sorin. It's not for discussing cooperation, just to chat about his ideas and exchange some information... At that time, you can also go with me. "

   "Let us see together, what kind of conspiracy and tricks Grand Duke Thorin has."

"I'm just afraid of what the Grand Duke wants to do..." Now, Yadbert was embarrassed, and he lowered his head and said, "I believe that Ian, you will never make the mistakes I made...you are more serious than me. Much smarter."

   "I may not be as smart as you, but at most I have more eyes.

  Ian reached out and patted Adalbert's shoulder: "These are trivial things. Originally, I wanted you to report to me the latest laboratory situation here...but the information about Grand Duke Thorin is indeed very important."

  After thinking for a while, Ian nodded, he stood up, and said solemnly: "Follow me, Adalbert, to the Void Realm."

"Huh?"

  Hearing this, the dead king researcher raised his head, he couldn't help being a little surprised: "Are you planning to see Grand Duke Sorin now..."

"of course not."

Ian shook his head slightly, and he said seriously: "This time, I got the 'key' I needed most in the Xenomorph Research Institute... a 'chip' that can accommodate almost all souls and artificial intelligence, a real The computing center of pre-epoch civilization."

   "Adelbert, as the best researcher under my command, what I want to show you next is the 'foundation' and 'first step' in the true sense of the society I want to shape."

   "That is also the real future of the 'dead king' in my heart."
