Chapter 762 Humans Worship, Gods Repel
"What do you mean?"
For this submissive king of a small country who doesn't even have the confidence to speak in front of a bunch of big countries. Tony frowned and asked him like this.
As soon as he spoke, he immediately focused the eyes of everyone present on the king of this small country. And this naturally made this guy's lack of confidence even thinner. He wanted to back down very much, but he didn't dare to back down. So he could only speak to everyone present in a low voice, as if he was afraid of alarming something.
"I mean, don't we still have gods to pray to? Not the kind of wood-carved stone gods, but the real gods. With him, maybe things are not as bad as we think?"
One sentence awakens the dreamer. In other words, his words opened a new window for many people present. For a long time, including Tony, they have subconsciously ignored the existence of the gods, that is, King Ming. For them, the existence of gods is a threat, a huge impact on the existing system and social class. When society has developed to such a stage, they don't want to bow down to an existence that originally only existed on paper.
This is the strength Zhou Yi displayed, and he himself does not have much desire for human society. Otherwise, not to mention anything else, just these politicians can use various reasons to launch countless attacks on Huiyao City.
As long as it is not the sacrifice of oneself, no matter how great the sacrifice is, it is acceptable to those who play politics. In other words, as long as their cake is touched, they will never show mercy to anyone. It is really an anomaly that they can achieve such a harmonious coexistence. But now, if someone pierces this layer of window paper, it is impossible for them to maintain this tacit neglect.
Moreover, they also feel that there is no need to continue to ignore the existence of the gods at this time. The great gods fight against the demons from the starry sky and rescue helpless humans. This script is not necessarily unacceptable to them. In fact, as long as you think about it seriously, you will find that this idea is still very good, no matter how you look at it. So at the moment, someone responded immediately.
"It is indeed a good idea to use the supreme power of the gods to solve the problem we are facing."
"That's right, that's right. God loves the world and saves mankind from peril. This is what the gods should do."
"Humans entrust their beliefs to gods, isn't it because gods can protect human life and soul from demons?"
Different people express different opinions, but it expresses the same meaning. Almost instantly, the group reached a consensus that they wanted to drag the so-called gods into the water.
In their view, even the gods must live on the earth. Since this crisis belongs to the entire earth, as a member of the earth, shouldn't we also express ourselves and do something? And as a god, shouldn't it be a matter of course to save mankind?
Thinking of this as a matter of course, a group of human leaders immediately discussed the next step, which was how to pull the gods into the water. While talking, their eyes were on Tony.
This made Tony, who hadn't spoken much from the beginning, immediately raised his brows and said bluntly.
"Don't look at me, I won't do this kind of thing. Personal relationship is personal relationship. Would you easily risk yourself because of personal relationship?"
As soon as he said this, embarrassing smiles appeared on the faces of those who looked at him. They really had a twisted mind just now, that is, they wanted Tony to drag the god in the world into him by playing the favor card. However, Tony's refusal and his attitude also made many people understand that this kind of thinking is really taken for granted. Comparing their hearts to their hearts, they are unlikely to be fooled, let alone a true god in the world.
This realization immediately brought the negotiations between them to a deadlock. They didn't have the confidence to persuade a god, let alone the courage to coerce him with conspiracy or other means. After all, the power of the gods is there, and the gap like the abyss makes these people dare not think about it at all.
Seeing a group of big shots scratching their heads and thinking hard about this question. A trace of disdain could not help but hang on the corner of Tony's mouth. He has an additional layer of understanding of politicians. And when he thought that he was also one of them, he couldn't help feeling a little more irritable.
This irritability made him unable to bear the environment here and the endless noise. So he immediately yelled.
"That's enough, don't think about those crooked ways. Let's meet him in the most formal way, and ask him for our request, isn't it enough?"
"Simply put, Mr. Stark. What if he opens his mouth like a lion. Don't you worry that he will share our rights from us?"
"What a ridiculous question. Do you think there is any way you can stop him if he has this idea?"
"We can manipulate public opinion, Mr. Stark. As long as we think, even the gods can't face the condemnation from the entire human race. He certainly has infinite power, but other than that, he will have nothing. The entire human race will Against his very existence, he won't be able to get anything he wants. Isn't it?"
"Interesting idea, but also stupid idea." With a sneer, Tony no longer has any other comments on the tricks these people always like to play. And the person who made this statement didn't say anything more about it.
But if they stopped talking, it doesn't mean that other people stopped talking. After a long dispute, most people still agree with Tony's point of view, which is to make demands on the gods in a formal way.
The gods can make their own requirements, and they will try their best to meet the requirements of the gods. As long as they don't exceed their psychological bottom line, they can agree with all his demands. It's a sacrifice for humanity, a sacrifice for themselves.
Under such a view, a group of envoys representing different countries took a secret plane, accompanied by Tony, to Huiyao City, and came to Zhou Yi's desk. And looking at such a group of guys, Zhou Yi's reaction couldn't be called enthusiastic.
"I hope you bother me because of important things, not because of some trivial things."
"Excuse me, buddy. I don't want to bother you in this way, if I can. You see, I'm here with a regular mission. They have demands of you, real demands. So, If there is any problem, I think you should be able to get a basic result in the discussion."
While apologizing, Tony sat down on the sofa beside him. Obviously, he didn't want to be too involved in what happened next.
"I don't remember any relevant appointments I have. I hope you can give me an explanation later, Tony." After saying this to Tony, Zhou Yi turned his attention to the group of stiff humans in front of him. "Speak, human. Let me see what you want. I hope you won't waste my time."
"Great Your Excellency, we are here hoping to get your help and help us through the next difficulties. For this, we are willing to pay the price and meet all your requirements. As long as you are willing to nod, you are willing to Speak up. We'd do anything in this world for you."
"Interesting statement, do you know who you're talking to?"
Squinting his eyes, Zhou Yi began to look at the seemingly respectful guys in front of him with a playful look. As for his inquiry, someone answered immediately.
"Of course, Your Excellency. Of course we know your true identity. And it is precisely because we have a full understanding of this identity that we are willing to make this promise to you. Gods protect humans, and humans respect gods. It's a normal thing, isn't it?"
"That's not normal, mortal."
In a word, it made a sound like Hong Zhong Da Lu, like an echo from outside the sky. This sound makes people tremble, because it not only shakes the eardrums, but also everyone's soul. Not everyone can bear this kind of soul shock, and almost immediately, most of the people present fell to their knees on the ground.
They are like people without bones, they can hardly even raise their heads. All they can do is listen, listen to the words from the gods.
"What humans seek is protection from themselves, not from gods. Gods don't have that need to protect you. Do you understand what I mean?"
"But, Your Excellency. No, Your Majesty. We are facing an irresistible crisis, and we can only hope in the gods. Please, please show mercy. Maybe only you can save us! We are willing to worship You, I honor you with everything."
Now that they are already kneeling on the ground, these guys who have been entrusted with important tasks naturally don't mind showing no lower limit. One of them begged immediately, looking pathetic and pathetic, with tears and snot.
However, this did not move Zhou Yi's heart. For such a request, he was not moved in the slightest. Neither the poor appearance of those people nor the conditions he proposed were enough to impress Zhou Yi.
He just looked at these guys indifferently, and then made a sound again.
"I've said it. Ask yourselves for help. Gods don't trade with people, and I don't accept your worship. No matter how big the danger is, you have to face it yourself. All of this has nothing to do with me."
"This time, for the sake of your first crime. I will not punish you. But if you dare to disturb my peace next time, then I guarantee that you will feel the punishment from the gods. Don't forget, God's grace is like the sea, God's power is like hell." (To be continued.)
