Chapter 2 Countermeasures

"What's the fuss about?" a voice shouted as he walked out from behind the Lingxiao Palace.

"It turns out to be Taishang Laojun!" I saw that the visitor did not show any intention of being polite. "The cities in our guild are all taken care of by Buddhism. Does your heavenly court care about it?"

"Buddhism?" Taishang Laojun immediately became serious when he heard that the matter was related to Buddhism: "What do you think happened to Buddhism?"

"The Buddhists just attacked my city, and now my city has been turned into ruins. What do you think we should do now?"

"Is this really true?"

"Am I here to play with you when I have nothing to do?"

"Wait a minute." After Taishang Laojun said that, he immediately got back to the back of the hall. After a while, he saw various immortals and gods starting to rush to the hall. Apparently, the Jade Emperor held an emergency meeting. Otherwise, those gods wouldn't rush over one by one as if their buttocks were on fire.

Because everyone hadn't arrived yet, the people who came first didn't know what was going on, so they started asking each other. Erlangshen, who had the better relationship with me among all the people, ran directly to my side. "President Ziri."

"Erlang Zhenjun."

After hugging each other and saying hello, Erlangshen asked directly. "Could it be that the Jade Emperor suddenly summoned us for a meeting this time has something to do with you?" I nodded and deliberately lowered my voice and whispered to Erlang Shen about the situation our guild encountered, while the other gods in the hall were talking one by one. They all tilted their heads, eager to put their ears around us and eavesdrop. Erlangshen suddenly shouted after hearing what I said about Buddhism: "What? The remnants of Buddhism haven't been eradicated yet? Didn't they catch everyone except the soul of the Great Sun Tathagata who ran away?"

There was no reason why the gods around Erlangshen's voice couldn't hear it, and it was as if it was fried for a moment. At first, the gods just thought it was some kind of trivial matter. After seeing me appearing here, they also thought of my situation and guessed that I might be in trouble and came to heaven for help, but they never expected that it was actually a Buddhist monk. It is jumping up and down, which is a major event for Heaven. After all, Buddhism was an existence that could compete with Heaven. This kind of existence must either live in harmony or be completely eliminated. It is better not to hit the snake than to kill it.

"President Ziri." A divine general came up and bowed first, then immediately asked: "How big is the scale of Buddhism's appearance this time?"

"They took over one of my reserve cities. How big is it?"

"A city?" After I finished speaking, all the gods around me began to assess the current situation. Attacking a city is quite serious for us players, but it seems not that exaggerated to these gods. But after all, Buddhism is not a big deal, and the gods are still a little wary.

In the main hall, the gods were discussing the seriousness of the matter fiercely. Suddenly, they heard someone shouting that the Jade Emperor was coming. Then everyone stood on both sides. After the Jade Emperor arrived and was done, everyone quickly saluted and ended. The Jade Emperor turned directly to me and asked, "Did you hear that your city was attacked by Buddhists?"

"Yes, and it can be said to be a heavy loss."

The Jade Emperor nodded and continued to ask: "Besides knowing that the one who attacked you is Buddhism, do you have any other information?"

"At present, we only know that the opponent has a large number of people, and they came from Tianzhu. Also, they don't seem to plan to directly fight with Tianting, but adopt small-scale sporadic activities. Now they may have us Frost Rose The alliance has become a pawn of Heaven, so it plans to attack us first."

"So the harm isn't serious!"

"Not serious?" My voice suddenly rose an octave. "My city is a material transfer station. Now our guild's external expansion has been affected. The Jade Emperor actually thinks that the matter is not serious?"

"This..." Of course the Jade Emperor didn't really think the matter was not serious, he just couldn't say it. This guy is a thief. He naturally knows how serious the matter is. The God War system has not yet been opened, which means that the fairy forces cannot take the initiative to go abroad to participate in acts of aggression, so the matter of opening up territories can only be left to player forces like our guild. But now that Buddhism has attacked the logistics transportation line of our guild, this is equivalent to destroying our ability to expand. Without territorial expansion, there will be no increase in faith. Heaven naturally knows this better than anyone else, but the Jade Emperor cannot say it. He knew that I came to heaven this time to collect an account. The Buddhist attack could not only target our guild. It would be of no benefit to them if we were defeated. There was no need for the Buddhist attack to attack us. The reason why they attacked us this time was completely It is the preliminary preparation for the future attack on heaven. In other words, this time we took the responsibility on behalf of Heavenly Court, so the responsibility lies entirely with Heavenly Court. The Jade Emperor cannot shirk this responsibility no matter what, otherwise it will not be justified in terms of etiquette and law, but he does not want to give me too many benefits, so he can only vaguely explain the incident itself. The meaning is that by keeping the loss very low, the subsequent compensation will not be too much. His little calculation is very clinking!

"Jade Emperor. Do you think this is the time to care about small interests?"

"Okay, okay, I didn't say I won't compensate you." The Jade Emperor also saw that I seemed to be angry now. They couldn't get involved in the affairs of the lower world themselves. They could only rely on us to handle it, so he couldn't do it either. We are sinned to death. After all, our guild is not only the faith agent of Heaven in the lower world, we are also the super middleman in charge of the Wheel of Commandments. Even if the Jade Emperor can hand over the agency power of Heaven to other guilds, the identity of the middleman of the Wheel of Commandments He can't get around it, so he might as well give us some benefits and let us continue to be their agent. "How much have you lost in total this time? Just go to Heaven's treasury to get it later. You have suffered losses for Heaven, and Heaven will be responsible to the end."

I said slightly angrily: "Compensating us is what Heaven should do. After all, we have no grudges with Buddhism, but since the Jade Emperor agreed to compensate, then the matter is over. What I want to ask now is, is it right? What does Heaven think of the Buddhist forces’ counterattack?”

As soon as I got down to business, the Jade Emperor stopped playing tricks on me. What we want to discuss now is business, which is related to the common interests of both of us, so there is no need to worry about internal issues at this time. It is only right to deal with the outside world unanimously.

The Jade Emperor himself didn't know everything about this incident. After hearing my question, he first asked me to share the information I knew. After I finished telling him all the information I knew, he asked the various gods and gods below. Will. "Dear ladies, do you have any ideas?"

King Tuota came out first and said: "I feel that if you know yourself and the enemy, you will be able to fight a hundred battles. We are in the light now, and Buddhism is in the dark. Even if we want to fight, there is no place to start, so I suggest that the Frost Rose Alliance led by President Ziri first make inquiries. Let’s discuss the specific trends of Buddhism clearly.”

After hearing this, the Jade Emperor thought it made sense, so he looked at me again, and I asked directly: "Are we still following the old rules?" This so-called old rule is that Heaven pays me to do things. Anyway, it is inconvenient for them to go down to the lower realms often. Unless I have accurate information here, it is impossible for them to send all the heavenly soldiers down to the lower realms to find people all over the world. But I'm not from Heavenly Court. Good relations are good relationships and business is business. There's no reason for me to work for Heavenly Court in vain.

The gods in heaven naturally understood what I meant when they heard the old rules, and the Jade Emperor nodded without hesitation. "Old rules, we pay for your work."

"That's good." After I finished speaking, I added: "In addition, I also need some tools for doing things." When the Jade Emperor heard that I asked for something again, he thought I was going to blackmail them, but as soon as he was about to open his mouth, I said first: " I’m not trying to blackmail you, but if I don’t have something, I’ll have to be able to escape if I encounter a top Buddhist entity, right? Otherwise, how can I help you get information if my personal safety is not guaranteed?”

"Then what do you want?"

"Sealing Spirit Pearl."

This sealing spirit bead itself looks relatively ordinary, just like a relatively large luminous bead, but its function is super abnormal. However, it is useless to have this thing in battles between players, because its function is specifically aimed at the NPC protoss forces. As long as you take this thing out, no matter where it is placed, with it as the center, the surrounding radius is within a thousand kilometers. All gods will be suppressed to the attributes of normal creatures, and their own gods' characteristics will be completely suppressed. Although the suppressed gods will still be very strong, players like me with top-level force can Easily defeat ordinary gods in such a state. Especially since I have the power of a god myself. Compared with ordinary players, when I use this to deal with god-level beings, I can not only suppress the opponent's strength below the god-level, but also allow myself to temporarily enter the god-level state. The whole thing is to reduce the combat power. Switched over, as long as I get this thing, I won't take it seriously at all.

"This thing is really impressive. Would you like to change it to something else?" As the leader of the gods in China, the Jade Emperor naturally knows how lethal I will be to god-level beings once I get this spirit-sealing bead, so he Hearing that I wanted this thing, he also became sad. Based on his understanding of me, there is absolutely no possibility of returning anything that comes into my hands. Therefore, when I say it is borrowed, in fact, it means that I am leaving and it is impossible to return it. The Jade Emperor has no idea about this. suspicious.

"If I can't defeat a god-level powerhouse, I won't be able to complete the mission. If you want me to complete the mission, you have to seal the spirit beads for me. It's up to you whether you need me to carry out the mission." I don't care anyway. The worst I can do is to take less orders. Without Heaven, would I still be poor?
