Chapter 822: Escher's Mistakes
After Escher told about his ambition to become a god, he kept staring at Qi Ge with a smile on his face, without saying a word, as if waiting for Qi Ge to express his opinion.
Qi Ge naturally knew that he wanted to express his attitude.
But at this time, he pretended to be stupid.
"Teacher, you told these to the students, but did you give them instructions?"
The Seven Pigeons bowed and asked Escher.
Escher looked at Qi Ge with great interest and said jokingly:
"Xingfeng, you are such a smart person, how could you not understand what I mean?
What I have said are secrets within secrets and cannot be told to outsiders. Now that you know it, you have no choice.
"If you obey me, you will live, if you disobey me, you will die. Don't you understand this principle?"
"Then the teacher wants to kill me."
Qi Ge lowered his head and said:
“How can students obey their teachers?
The students are terrified just by hearing about the great undertaking of deifying the gods, so how can they be capable of participating in it? "
“Hehe, don’t play dumb.
If it was before, you are not eligible.
But this moment is different from the past.
You don't need to do anything, just disappear for a short while, and Aged, who loves you like a son, will cause trouble in Thunder City.
Don’t think that your teacher is usually low-key. Once he makes a noise, the whole Thunder City will tremble.
If the situation gets serious, the Thunder Temple will naturally take action and send Titans to the front line to supervise the battle and look for you at the same time.
In the best case scenario, the Thunder Lord Legion will be dispatched.
And here, the entire eastern part of Bracada, is my territory.
If I get the chance, I can keep all those Titans!"
Qi Ge was shocked: "You want to ambush and kill those Titans?"
“No, that doesn’t do me any good.
Quite the contrary, the Titans will win a great victory here, annihilate countless enemies, chase them down to the north, and recapture the Lighthouse City.
However, when these Titans return, they will be willing to work for me and become my spies and helpers.
If it was an ordinary Titan, I would kill a few of them and force the Thunder Temple to send reinforcements until the Thunder Lord's Legion was dispatched.
Once the Thunder Lord Legion falls into my hands, I will have the opportunity to completely control the Thunder Temple."
Hearing this, Qi Ge's pupils shrank, his head buzzed, and he was a little bit unbelievable.
“El Zeus is the god of Bracada, but no matter how powerful he is, he is just a false god.
He has limited energy and ability. If he wants to control the huge Bracada, he must seek help from wizards and djinn.
Otherwise, not to mention El Zeus alone, even if the entire Titan clan were combined, they would not be able to control Bracada."
Qi Ge knew in his heart that El Zeus, like the ancient emperors, possessed supreme power without supervision.
However, if his rights are to be implemented, they will ultimately fall on individual people.
This requires a governing body, a government system, and support and cooperation from the bottom up.
In the Song Dynasty, the emperor and the scholar-officials shared the world, and in the Jin Dynasty, there was the Nine-Rank System, which was no more than the same.
El Zeus occupies a very important position in the entire Bracada, but he is only a part of Bracada, not all of Bracada.
Escher continued:
“El Zeus understood this, which is why there is a Grand Council.
The Temple of Thunder is the temple of God in Bracada, above the Grand Council.
Except for very few special cases where the oracles of El Zeus are directly issued to individuals, in most cases they must be communicated through the Temple of Thunder.
In other words, if I control the Thunder Temple, I control the entire Bracada. I can easily open the Thunder Treasury that the Titans have accumulated for countless years, and plunder all the gold coins and resources they have absorbed from Bracada for countless years.
I can make everyone in Bracada do my bidding, and no one dares to object.
Whether it is selecting mages for research or mobilizing personnel to collect resources for me, it will become easy.
I will use the talent and wealth accumulated in Bracada to build my sky tower to the sky."
Qi Ge's pupils shrank.
Titan's Thunder Vault!
What a concept.
According to historical records, when Bracada was first established, the Titans negotiated with all the tribes and decided that the Titans would take one percent of the commercial tax revenue from the gold mines, cities and waterwheels, and all the tribes would take nine percent.
The Titans are a holy race, and all gains belong to the clan.
The resources of all ethnic groups are taken for national use.
However, before the three years were up, the great sage made some suggestions.
"Titan is the foundation of Bracada, a level 7 soldier, a holy race, and is needed to help Bracada fight against foreign invasions.
Dragons, Behemoths, Hydras and the like are extremely savage, brutal and cruel, and only the Titans can check and balance them.
Therefore, the resources of the Titans cannot be insufficient.
That’s right. The Titans’ talents are three, and the talents of all races are seven.
A hundred years later, Somla advised that the Titans' small population was due to insufficient resources, and the Titans' resources were reduced to 50%.
In other words, Titan accounts for half of the total income of Bracada!
What a terrible and terrifying wealth this is.
But that’s not all.
It is said to be half, but in practice, some people are fawning on others and selling out the interests of their tribe for their own glory.
In fact, Titan received nearly 60% of Bracada's income! !
As a level 7 military unit, Titans are known for their small number and difficulty in reproduction.
How many resources can all the Titans in Bracada use combined?
Even if every member of the Titan clan advances to the mythical level, all of their income for one year will be used by them.
The vast majority of resources were stored by Titan.
It's not that the Titans are short-sighted, it's that Bracada is too rich.
Bracada was the first force to be established and reaped the huge benefits of this wave.
The goblins left a large amount of inheritance to Bracada, allowing Bracada to complete relatively basic industrialization at the beginning of its establishment and reap another wave of dividends.
Later, Trosa's alchemical revolution brought Bracada to its peak.
Even if the Titans only take out 30% of their resources, they can still feed everyone in Bracada, except for the goblins, of course.
But if we really divide it by 91, in the time it takes a Titan to give birth to one generation, it takes a wizard or a genie to give birth to four or five generations, and they can give birth to several children in each generation.
There are enough gold coins and resources, so there is no pressure to raise them. I don’t know how many high-level, heroic, and mythical troops will be produced by these level 4 and 5 troops with strong fertility.
Naturally, the Titans need to take back the excess to ensure the prosperity and military strength of other races so that they will never threaten the Titans' rule.
However, the Titans' spending power is limited, and the gold coins and resources they get are of no use at all, so they can only save them.
Over time, it becomes a treasure trove of thunder.
Of course, there is much more in the Thunder Treasury than just gold coins and resources.
There are also luxurious treasures collected by the Titans, mysterious magic, rare treasures from all over the world, etc.
The wealth of the Thunder Treasury is so exaggerated that it is hard to imagine. Even the Thunder City Treasury cannot be compared with it.
The crown of learning that El Zeus rewarded himself with was one of the treasures in the Thunder Treasury.
El Zeus controls the Thunder Treasury, and thus controls the lifeline of the entire Bracada.
People die for money, birds die for food, and there will always be brave men when there is a big reward.
The ancient sayings in reality are also effective in the Yasa world.
With the Thunder Treasury, El Zeus can reward anyone he wants, and the reward will be enormous wealth.
The transcendent status of the Thunder Temple and the unshakable divine authority of El Zeus were established not only because of their military force, but also because of the Thunder Treasury.
After all, martial arts can kill people, but they cannot stop you from doing it.
Of course, the Thunder Treasury is the private treasury of the Titans.
Without the personal order of El Zeus, no one from the Titan clan would dare to take out the resources and gold coins from the Thunder Treasury to enjoy them.
All Titans' pocket money, advanced resources, alchemical treasures, etc., also need to be withdrawn from the Thunder Treasury. Every Titan keeps a close eye on the Thunder Treasury.
So even though El Zeus has bestowed rewards many times, the Thunder Treasury is still unimaginably full.
If Escher could really control the Titans, hide it from El Zeus, and plunder the Thunder Treasury, his wealth would suddenly become an astronomical figure!
By then, the cost of researching the Ice Apocalypse will be nothing to him.
He could even spend money to create a dozen pseudo-legends who were proficient in ice magic and form a magic research group.
"How is it? Do you understand my plan?"
Escher raised his eyebrows at the seven pigeons:
"Don't worry, I will protect you perfectly during the time you pretend to be missing.
Even if the plan fails, El Zeus himself will not harm you."
What Escher said is very right and very good, but it still cannot avoid one problem.
A fatal question.
Qi Ge asked in a trembling voice:
"Teacher, you mean that you can control the Titans right under the nose of El Zeus without being discovered by him?!"
"Oh."
Hearing Qi Ge's question, Eschel, who had a relaxed expression, suddenly laughed.
"Did you really notice it?
Who do you think I am? If I don't even have this ability, how can I dare to claim to be a god? How can I dare to plot against El Zeus?
My understanding of mind magic has long been profound, beyond the scope of magic, and is now the control of desires.
All living beings, except undead puppets, have desires.
If you enter into desire, you can turn living beings into your own use.
This is neither magic nor a special skill. It is undetectable. Even if it is suppressed by other rules, it will not be exposed.
Even if they are both demigods, once they are caught, it is extremely difficult to wake up.
The ultimate form of desire manipulation is to embody their beliefs.
If the incarnation is successful, then he will become the source of the believers' desires, granting them new life, and from then on he will become the lord of the believers.
In the whole Bracada, I have a total of 113,000 believers . I can transform into these 113,000 believers at any time and observe the world through their eyes.
Therefore, I call myself the Eye of the Common People.
Among these 113,000 believers, 63 of them are members of the Titan tribe that I have painstakingly accumulated over many years."
Qi Ge's body shuddered:
"That doesn't mean..."
"Isn't it something?"
Escher smiled and looked at Qi Ge:
"Are you trying to say that those Titans who were monitoring me were all under my control?"
Hiss~
Qi Ge looked at Escher. He looked kind and amiable, but Qi Ge felt a pressure from him that was far greater than that of Ronis, Gru, and even Tanan.
"Teacher, you know everything?"
"Of course I do."
Escher raised his head and looked out the window:
“Below demigod, facing a false god like El Zeus who holds power and the Tears of Yasha, there is no power to fight back.
It is difficult for ordinary demigods to compete with them.
But at my level, as long as it's not in their kingdom of God, retreating safely is not a problem. If I fight to the death, I have a chance to win.
Even if I died, they would be seriously injured.
Bards rumored that the godslayer Anosaki had special rules and could kill gods on earth with his demigod body.
I believe that if we fight to the death, I will not lose to Arnoldsach."
At this moment, Escher's old face showed the vigor and enthusiasm that only young people can have.
Qi Ge finally understood that the guy in front of him was a bold and arrogant madman, even Korg was not as good as him .
No matter how powerful Korg was, he was only brave enough to challenge a demigod, and Escher didn't even take the false god seriously.
His elegant, calm, and mature appearance in scheming for the country was actually just a disguise.
His old body hides an unruly soul.
call.
Qi Ge took a deep breath and said to Escher:
"Teacher, if what you said is true, I also have a secret to tell you."
"Oh, what a secret."
Escher raised his eyebrows and said:
Qi Ge stared into Escher's eyes and spoke word by word:
"You are not the only one who dares to draw the sword against Titan!
You are not the only one who dares to talk about the matter of deification!
Teacher, your plan to blow up the chaos zone is a drastic measure and it is a good idea.
However, being too rigid may lead to failure, and being too radical may not lead to the teacher's wishes.
In the Chaos Zone, if the Yasa World is unable to recapture it, Teacher, you can blow it up, which is a great achievement.
But in the Chaos Zone, if the Yasa world can already take it back, teacher, if you bomb it, it will be rejected by the world.
Not to mention contributions worthy of being deified, I'm afraid that the sins worth requiring me to be deified as a demon will all fall on you, teacher.
By then, you, teacher, will be the big devil that everyone in the entire Yasha world will shout and beat. Even Selron will have to shrink into a ball when he sees you and dare not even say hello to you."
"What do you mean?"
Escher looked at the seven pigeons in confusion.
"What do you mean by that?"
Qi Ge took a deep breath and said:
"Teacher, do you know about the Asa God's Choice?"
Escher nodded: "Of course I know, a bunch of weird things.
There is no desire or soul to be seen, but it is clever and weird, just like a living undead, a puppet with flesh and blood and soul.
Even if their minds are controlled by me, they will not become believers. Only their bodies will be destroyed, and their minds will disappear.
This is such a shame for me.
I have studied for a long time how to control the chosen ones of Yasha, but I have not succeeded. After thinking about it, I decided that the chosen ones of Yasha must be favored by the Mother God, so I gave up. "
Qi Ge breathed a sigh of relief.
You old man, it turns out that you can't control the chosen one of Yasa. You should have said it earlier. You scared me.
The body was destroyed, the mind was nowhere to be found... I guess I was forced to watch the cutscene.
Hiss, I want to learn this trick. I don’t care whether I am mentally or not, as long as my body can fall.
It would be better if their minds were not destroyed! They watched their bodies being destroyed... but they were powerless to do anything...
With a relaxed mindset, Qi Ge's tone became much lighter:
"Teacher Escher, you don't know that the Yasha God's Chosen is the weapon for the Yasha world to recapture the Chaos Zone. It is the blade of counterattack sent down by the Mother Goddess!"
