The Emperor of the Storm Empire, who was sitting at the head of the table, looked at the few close ministers around him with a sad face.
He had just received news that the gods had landed in the hinterland of the empire he ruled, and that a knight order nearby had been completely wiped out, while the opponent did not even lose a single person.
This disparity in strength makes him, the ruler, restless. He is now worried that the other party will directly attack the imperial capital where he is. By that time, he, the emperor of the empire, may become the king of subjugation.
.
"According to the news, the other party has a power as powerful as a god. There is no way we can defeat it..." He sat there and asked an old minister: "Do you have any countermeasures for this matter?"
The old minister was worried, and while he was thinking, he was unexpectedly asked by His Majesty the Emperor. He hesitated for a moment, and then replied: "Your Majesty! The other party appeared in the hinterland of our empire. In the opinion of the veteran, this may not be a bad thing.
"
In fact, it is not a strategizing. In the opinion of this minister, since the other party cannot be defeated at all, then he should study it honestly and see if he can talk to the other party peacefully.
This is not originally a superb strategy, but just a good habit of struggling to the death. Isn't it a good habit to kneel down if you can't beat someone?
Another minister saw his Majesty the Emperor looking over, hesitated for a moment, and said bravely: "Your Majesty, Gods come to the world only to have needs. As long as we meet the requirements of the gods, I believe they will leave.
of."
Seeing that the two ministers were both advocating for peace, the man as the emperor also felt that it was not a wise thing to conflict with the gods.
Being able to eliminate an entire knight order in a short period of time and rely on force to fight to the death with the opponent is obviously not a smart decision.
However, why the other party came and what decision he will make after that are all things he must figure out.
In fact, whether it is losing some troops or losing some land, it is not a big deal for him as an emperor.
So he looked at the third minister and asked, "What about you? What do you think?"
"Your Majesty!" The third minister looked at the two colleagues in front of him, and finally expressed his opinion: "Actually, it doesn't matter what the other party wants. Just give them what they want. As long as it's
When they ask, we give them, and that’s it.”
After speaking, he took a step forward, lowered his voice, and continued to speak to his emperor: "On the contrary, your Majesty needs to think carefully about some of the things that will happen next."
"You mean?" The emperor of the Storm Empire is not a fool, on the contrary, he is an extremely smart person. At this moment, what he is worried about is not the aloof and irresistible gods, he is worried about other things.
"First! Does God support you, or only support you, to become a reasonable and legitimate emperor of this world?" The minister raised a finger and asked the first question.
Hearing this question, the emperor of the Storm Empire stopped breathing. He had just thought about this question. If God only recognized the existence of the Storm Empire, then the Storm Empire would most likely be able to unify the entire world with the help of the gods.
For the emperor of the Storm Empire, this was simply a dream. Of course, he usually only thought about it when he was dreaming, but now the opportunity actually appeared in front of him.
"In order to gain the support of God, any price is worth considering." The old minister who was the first to speak said what he wanted to say for his emperor.
"I hope our knights and the surrounding garrisons did not offend the gods." The second minister who spoke also reacted at this time and said.
"Have the knights dispatch immediately, notify all armies near the area where the gods have descended, and ask them to retreat! Don't have any more conflicts with the gods!" The emperor of the Storm Empire immediately looked at a confidant behind him, and ordered: "Go quickly!"
The confidant bowed slightly, then turned around and went out to convey His Majesty the Emperor's order. The deliberations in the room were still continuing.
"In addition, the arrival of the gods this time is not good news for us." The minister who extended a finger continued: "Because the status of the Holy See will definitely increase with the appearance of the gods.
"
Compared to the emperor, the clergy are naturally close to the gods. They serve the great gods devoutly and believe that the gods can bring them happiness.
From the perspective of gods, those clergy are obviously more trustworthy and easier to control.
"We need to work hard to prove in front of the gods that we are very useful to the gods... Your Majesty! If the gods are on your side, then you will no longer have to worry about religious matters."
When the minister said this, he stretched out his second finger.
"You're right!" The emperor of the Storm Empire nodded and agreed with the minister's statement. If he really got the "Divine Right of Kings" ID card, then he would no longer have to worry about his dynasty being overthrown.
"So, Your Majesty, what we have to do now is to contact the gods earlier than the people in the Holy See and have a good talk with them." The minister was confident and suggested to his emperor.
"That's right! You are right! I think your suggestion is very good!" The Emperor of the Storm Empire nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered: "Arrange immediately, I want to go to Faisala in person!"
"Also! Let the 2nd Knights go to the Holy Mountain! If those damn magicians want to do something small, stop them!" He said while looking at another henchman behind him.
The confidant also bowed slightly, and then immediately withdrew. The emperor of the Storm Empire stood up, walked to the three confidants, and said: "If we gain the trust of the gods this time, then, thanks to your contributions, I will
I will never forget it!”
"Your Majesty is wise!" The three ministers quickly bent down and made a very humble gesture.
"Hahahaha! Hahahaha!" The emperor of the Storm Empire was full of pride and laughed loudly. He felt that he would soon become the master of this world, and he was recognized by the gods as the greatest master in history!
