Text Chapter 1749 Fatal Flaw
"The more cities there are, the more people you can call upon, and the more materials you can use -" Song Tuo suddenly shut up when he said this. He was a good hand during the war, but he obviously didn't know enough about these undead creatures. On the ancient battlefield, the game of King of Hegemony was quite interesting. That was because every city lord had too many desires and ambitions, such as land, beauties, minerals, etc... But for these undead creatures , they are just a bunch of dead people, and they don’t have much material desires, so naturally there is no need to attack the city and capture the territory. Even a city lord will almost never "die" again, so why bother attacking other cities?
Song Tuo felt that he was a bit stupid, so he shut up.
Qin Lang felt that there might be something hidden in this, so he sincerely asked the old steward: "So, are there any other benefits to being the lord of the city of the undead? Also, why do other people except you, the old steward, have any other benefits?" Don’t all undead creatures have intelligence?”
"Lord City Lord, you have finally asked a key question." The old housekeeper said slowly, "In this world, having wisdom is a very luxurious thing. Therefore, only those who have the approval of the God of Hades can Only a few lucky people can be born with wisdom. However, once there are intelligent creatures, they also have the responsibility to serve the God of Hades. For example, as the steward of Baiyin City, I must serve this city. It is my responsibility to serve the city lord, this is the responsibility given to me by Hades."
"God of Hades, how are you sure that this is the duty given to you by God of Hades?" Although the army is now in the city, the old housekeeper still speaks so slowly. Maybe for it, it only needs to serve the Lord of the City. As for who will do it now and in the future? The city lord is not important to it. It used to serve Bai Yin and now serves Qin Lang. This is the reason.
"It is naturally certain that in this land, Hades is omnipresent -"
"If Hades was omnipresent, wouldn't it have killed us long ago? Aren't you talking nonsense!" Song Tuo couldn't help but say.
The old housekeeper sneered, but did not answer Song Tuo's words.
"Don't talk for the time being." Qin Lang could only shut up Song Tuo for the time being, and then motioned to the old housekeeper to continue. Qin Lang is quite curious about the issue of "The God of Hades", because as an undead wizard, Andfu also firmly believes in the existence of the God of Hades. However, if there really is a God of the Underworld here, according to what Song Tuo just said, if the God of the Underworld exists, how can he tolerate people like Qin Lang and Song Tuo to act recklessly in its territory.
"The God of Hades is omnipresent, there is no doubt about it. However, how high is the God of Hades, how could he care about the gains and losses of a mere city. What's more, the country is broken, the mountains and rivers are here, even if you are creatures from another world, You have occupied this city, but can you take this city away? Can you take away the land here? If not, then to Lord Hades, what does it matter who is the lord of the city?" The old steward's words seemed to be filled with emotion. wisdom.
Qin Lang had to agree with what the old steward said, because it was true. Throughout China's thousands of years of history, there were so many princes and generals, and some even claimed that the whole world was not the land of kings, but what about the world? Nowadays, the bones of these princes and generals are rotten, but the mountains and rivers are still there, and no one can take away a piece.
Indeed, from the perspective of the God of Hades, if a mere Baiyin City changed its owner, it would be nothing to mention. However, does Hades really exist? Does its will really exist?
"Lord City Lord, you are the City Lord of Baiyin City, and as Lord City Lord, you have some privileges in Baiyin City and around this city. However, it seems that now the Lord City Lord is only good at using the power you had before. You have not made good use of the power and power given to you by Lord Hades.”
After hearing this, Qin Lang wanted to beat up the damn old butler, because this guy had never told Qin Lang before what privileges he could have as a city lord. However, the anger flashed away, and now Qin Lang could only ask carefully, hoping that the old housekeeper could tell him some valuable information.
Fortunately, the old butler did not disappoint Qin Lang. It turns out that as the city lord, he has strong control over the city and its surroundings. For example, the city lord can command the undead creatures in the entire city and recover some undead creatures in the surrounding area for his own use. . In addition, the city lord has a deterrent effect on the undead creatures around the city, and the city lord is the only one who can use this city defense formation.
"But why didn't you tell me before?" Qin Lang asked.
"As the city lord, you should know these things even if I don't tell you." The old housekeeper looked very innocent.
"How is it possible?" Qin Lang said, "I am not omniscient. I am just a city lord in name only. How can I know these things."
"This is the problem. Lord City Lord, if you had been staying in Baiyin City, you would have known about those things just now even if I didn't tell you, because as Lord City Lord, as long as you stay here for a long time, you will naturally You can feel the will of Lord Hades, which will give you the power you deserve as the Lord of the City. However, although you are the Lord of the City, you rarely stay here. You have no feeling of belonging to this city, although you are the Lord of the City. Sir, but you have not been recognized by the will of this city, so you feel that I have concealed these things from you before." I have to say that what this old butler said makes sense, Qin Lang is indeed just a nominal city lord. , and he indeed does not regard himself as the city lord of Baiyin City. Since Qin Lang himself has no awareness of being a city lord, how can he be recognized by this city and the surrounding undead creatures?
After obtaining this city before, Qin Lang and others only searched for the benefits, but did not have any sense of belonging as the city lord. Now Qin Lang finally got some key information from the old housekeeper.
"But, I am a living creature, how can I get the approval of Hades?" Qin Lang asked.
"Haha^... Lord City Lord, all the undead creatures here were once living beings, but they are now under the jurisdiction of Lord Hades. So, in the eyes of Lord Hades, you are actually no different from other undead creatures, because when When you destroyed Bai Yin, you were destined to be marked by Lord Hades as the world of the dead. When you die, your undead will come here and serve Lord Hades from now on."
