At this time, Zhongli has already arrived in front of Linton. Also approaching are two Liyue Seven Stars, Ningguang and Keqing, and three immortals including Mandrill. This group of people is basically the entire top management of Liyue.
, obviously they are about to make a decision that will affect the entire Liyue.
Although Ningguang and Keqing were also very concerned about Zhongli's identity, they also knew that this was not the time, the enemy was at hand, and Linton was the most important problem at the moment. The two did not interrupt for the time being, listening to Linton and
Zhongli's conversation.
"Disaster? Oh, is it about that island?" Linton was stunned for a moment, then pointed to the Sky Island in the distance and said, "Are you worried that after you switch to my side, your immediate superior will come to settle accounts with you and involve Li?"
moon?"
"Immediate boss?" Ning Guang and Ke Qing, who were listening here, were stunned. Of course they could understand what their immediate boss meant, but the problem was that Zhongli was the Emperor of the Rock King. Where did he get his immediate boss?
Yes, to ordinary people, the Seven Gods are already the highest rulers of this continent, so it is really strange to hear Linton say something about his immediate superior.
However, Zhongli here did not refute Linton's words, but said: "I don't want what happened to the Kingdom of Kanreia to happen to Liyue."
"The Kingdom of Kanrea? What is it?" Of course Linton had no idea what Zhongli was talking about. This made Zhongli stunned for a moment, just... Linton didn't know about the Kingdom of Kanrea?
Fortunately, Asuna knew clearly and said directly to Linton: "The Kingdom of Kanria, an underground kingdom that perished about five hundred years ago. This kingdom was once the strongest kingdom on the mainland before its demise.
The country has no patron saint, and its citizens do not believe in gods. Relying on powerful technology, it was once very powerful and stood at the top of the continent."
"However, five hundred years ago, the gods headed by Tianli attacked this country, completely destroying the Kingdom of Kanria and falling apart. Most of the citizens of this country perished along with the country, and the remaining part
It has become an abyss." Asuna said.
"Oh, I understand, it turned out to be the chicken that these gods killed the chicken to scare the monkeys." Linton nodded, it was indeed very easy to understand. In order to maintain the rule, the easiest way is to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys. Give the obedient one a sweet date,
Anyone who disobeys will be beaten to death with a big stick. What is not understandable?
"So what you are saying is that if you betray your boss, Liyue will also be implicated, and it will also suffer a fate similar to the destruction of the Kingdom of Kanreia, right? Either way, you will die, so you can't agree to my request.
." Linton continued to say to Zhongli.
"Yes." Although Linton's words sometimes seem a bit difficult to understand, Zhongli can still understand what he means.
"Oh, then the matter will be simple." Linton said immediately, "Well, I can give you a guarantee."
"Promise?" Zhong Li looked at Linton who was very confident in convincing him, but he was also curious about what kind of guarantee the other party could make.
"Yeah, yeah, I can assure you... if I, Linton, want to destroy the entire Liyue, my methods will be a hundred times crueler than this." Linton said with confidence.
"...Huh?" It was Zhongli who couldn't hold back when he heard Linton's promise. Judging from the context of Linton's side, he should have promised them that if Tianli takes action, he will protect them.
Stop the other party or protect Liyue, let's not talk about whether he believes Linton can protect Liyue, but he should still say it, but what did Linton say?
"Don't worry, I'm very good at this. Look, if you Liyue betrays this natural law, the most they can do is bring a bunch of people to the door to kill you all and destroy the country. Do you think this is cruel?
This is nothing. I promise you here that if it falls into my hands, I will make it impossible for people in the entire country to live or die," Linton said.
"Well……"
Just when Linton's words shocked everyone, Linton waved to Ningguang here: "Come on, come on, come here first."
"Huh?" Ningguang was a little surprised as to why Linton suddenly called him. Of course, although it was a bit surprising, there seemed to be nothing he could do to resist. It wouldn't be a big deal if someone really wanted to kill her. So Ningguang was also surprised.
He took a few steps forward.
There was a "bang", and suddenly there was such a loud noise. Before anyone could react, a huge arm from the sky suddenly came down, and slapped Ning Guang directly on the spot.
The one who struck was Susanoo. It was obviously not an attack that Ning Guang could block, and it was so sudden. By the time everyone reacted, they had already been splashed by the blood splashed by Ning Guang.
No one expected that Linton would suddenly take action at this time. It was too sudden. As long as you said that the negotiations broke down and started fighting, aren't they still negotiating? And why is it Ningguang, even though she is from Seven Stars?
Chief, but now she just stood back and listened without saying a word, why did she suddenly be beaten to death?
But before everyone here could react, Linton snapped his fingers in the next second, and a green light flashed on his body. Yes, the condensed body that had just been beaten into meat patties quickly condensed. In less than a second, the opponent
The whole person recovered.
"I..." Ningguang was also looking at her hands in confusion, and the people around her were also looking at her in surprise. To be honest, everything happened too fast, sometimes dead and sometimes alive.
Everyone didn’t know how to react. What on earth was Linton going to do?
However, Linton twisted in the void the next second, and Ningguang's body suddenly compressed, turning into a meat pie shape again. Then, before anyone could react, Ningguang's body recovered again, and
With such constant compression and reorganization, it entered a cyclical mode in an instant.
"As you can see." Linton's voice sounded at this time, "It's in my hands. It's not up to you whether you want to live or die. After this guy repeats it hundreds of times, I guess she will definitely
She will beg me to kill her. But will I do it? If I beg hard, I might really do it."
"So do you understand what I mean? What is the law of heaven? The most I can do is let you all die. But if you disobey me, I will make the entire country beg me to let you die. I might be in Liyue in the future
Set up something like a Mark Six lottery, and only the person who wins the lottery can die. I will make the person who wins the lottery ecstatic. In this country, being able to die will become the happiest thing." Linton said with a smile.
.
"You..." Linton's words deeply shocked everyone present, and also made them understand one thing, that is, death may not be the most terrifying thing. There is no hope in living, and the only way is to pursue liberation.
The most terrible.
"As I said before, I always do what I say. So, Mr. Yan Wang Dijun, I advise you to think about it carefully. In my opinion, the lesser of two evils is better.
That Li is indeed a scourge, and I know you are very afraid of her. But when it comes to scourges, I, Linton, have never been timid. No one knows how to scourge others better than me. I am afraid even when I am not a human being." Linton said.
"I can prove that this guy is really not a human being when he is not a human being." Asuna also said, "Please believe what he said. As the person in charge of this country, I hope you can accept his threat.
.”
"Oh, I almost forgot that you are in charge here in Liyue. I'm addicted." Linton said.
"I understand." Asuna nodded.
"Yeah, yeah, I can't help but want to do it myself. The Mark Six Lottery idea just now is a good idea, isn't it." Linton said and looked at Zhongli, "Come on, come on, choose, and make your final decision."
Your decision, whether to follow me or follow the laws of heaven, you choose, I will help you realize it."
Seeing Linton's eager face here, Zhongli, who had always been calm, felt a little afraid. Yes, this guy felt more like letting himself refuse, and then started to carry out what he said before. Seriously, he lived for three years
In more than a thousand years, Zhongli felt that he had never faced such pure malice.
Linton even just wanted to try out whether the idea he came up with was fun or not. This was what made him most afraid.
Obviously, if it was all about death, Zhongli would naturally make a choice quickly. Is Tianli really such a big threat to him? If he was really afraid of Tianli, why did he agree to Zhidong before?
In order to make a deal with the country, they had to hand over their own hearts of gods. That thing was the authority given to them by the laws of heaven, and it was the medium through which they communicated with the laws of heaven.
However, there has been no news from Tianli for five hundred years. Since the demise of the Kingdom of Kanria, Tianli seems to have disappeared. Not only has he not contacted them at all, he has not responded to their contact.
As the Seven Gods, he also participated in the previous war that destroyed the Kingdom of Kanreia. To be honest, Zhongli did not agree with Tianli's move to destroy the Kingdom of Kanreia at all. This is why he gave his heart of god to Zhi Dong
The fundamental reason for the country, because if it leads to destruction, the Winter Kingdom is likely to be the next country to receive divine punishment.
The patron saint of the Winter Kingdom was indeed frightened by what happened in the Kingdom of Kanria. The series of measures he has taken now may seem radical, but they are just for self-protection. That’s why he dealt with the Winter Kingdom who kept making little moves against them in Liyue.
He could understand why his old friend the Ice Queen became so extreme.
And now, it was time for him to make a decision. But the Linton in front of him... really made him a little unable to bear it. Compared with him, Tianli who casually destroyed a country was already considered a good man.
"I... agree." However, Zhongli finally nodded and said.
