Starting From Zero

Chapter 131 This Is Your Boss

Anyway, the moving speed of our guild is quite fast. The entire Iron Empire was evacuated overnight. However, the so-called evacuation only means that the things that belonged to the original Iron Empire were evacuated. Said the island has also been evacuated. [-] There is no pop-up window. In fact, we moved far more things that night than we moved away. The islands that the Iron Empire belongs to happen to be within the Mediterranean Sea. It can be said that it is very close to the scope of activities of the Olympus Protoss. Now that even Poseidon is ours, it is equivalent to the entire coastal defense of the Olympus Protoss. Everything has become a decoration. Now if we want to invade the Olympus Protoss, we don't have to worry about being discovered by crossing the sea.

With such good conditions, we naturally cannot waste it. As long as we mess up the spaces around the island and mark the location of the reef group, it can become our best base for advancement. Even if we can absorb and master the flying technology of the Iron Empire as soon as possible, we don't need to worry about the spatial dislocation on the sea floor. We only need to mark the detailed location of the reef area and directly use the spacecraft to enter and exit in the future. Of course, this premise is that it is not difficult to master the Iron Empire's flying technology.

After leaving all the work here to Rose and the others, I first brought Poseidon to Isengard. Originally, I should have sent Poseidon back to the Sea Emperor Palace at this time, but now we have encountered a problem, and that is... Poseidon's identity.

If the Poseidon in front of us is the Poseidon in historical legends, then we have no problem at all now. We can just send her back to the Sea Emperor Palace and let her merge with us. But the problem is, the person standing in front of us now is not the lecherous god Poseidon with a beard and extremely masculine appearance, but a charming and charming person who just wants to swallow it in one bite. Is the contrast between the two too great? It would be better if Poseidon's men could recognize this Poseidon, but what if her men didn't know that Poseidon was actually a woman? No, not in case, but it will definitely happen. Since Poseidon deliberately concealed her identity, that means she didn't want others to know that she was a woman, so how could she advertise her identity everywhere? Therefore, it is almost certain that most of Poseidon's men do not know that Poseidon is actually a woman. Even if there is an individual who knows Poseidon's true identity, it is definitely an individual. If it was normal, Poseidon wanted to restore his identity, it would not be a big deal, he would just explain it to these people slowly. But now is the time when the Olympus Protoss is about to collapse, and the Poseidon Olympus Protoss are busy contacting them about job-hopping. During such a sensitive period, if news suddenly broke out that Poseidon was a woman, how many of the Poseidon-type Olympians would believe it? I would never believe it anyway.

"Is this the legendary Isengard?" After Poseidon saw our Isengard, he was obviously similar to the original Hades, and he felt like a village girl entering the city.

Poseidon's surprise certainly makes me very proud, but now is not the time to show off the city. We must first find a way to solve the problem of Poseidon's identity.

The Poseidon in front of us is the real Poseidon, but the problem is that her image is a little different from what everyone thought before, so what needs to be dealt with is not the issue of authenticity, but how to win people's trust. Of course, before thinking of a solution, you have to ask the situation clearly. At the very least, you have to know who knows Poseidon's identity and who doesn't.

After bringing Poseidon to the reception room of the Temple of Chaos and Order, I started asking Poseidon. "How many people in your Poseidon family know your current identity?"

Poseidon pondered for a moment, and then said: "My maid knows about this, and the patron saint of the third Poseidon Pillar knows about this, and the other Poseidon gods don't know about it."

"That means we have to solve the cognitive problem of all the Poseidon gods except them?"

Poseidon nodded and said, "That's right."

I thought for a while and said: "Then let's do this first. You should know which gods are in the Poseidon system?"

Poseidon nodded and said: "Of course I know my own men. But I can only remember the middle and high-level people. I can only know a few of the low-level gods that I see often. I can't know all of those small soldiers. "

"It doesn't matter. Soldiers are not important. Just tell me which people's perceptions of you may affect the merger plan."

Poseidon thought for a moment and said: "That's not much to say. The main gods of the Poseidon system are the guardians of the Seven Seas God Pillar under me. They are equivalent to the lords under the empire. Each one rules separately. With a bunch of low-level gods, as long as the seven of them believe in me, I can guarantee that I will take away more than 80% of them."

"What about the remaining 20%?"

"The other two achievements are from the Sea Emperor Palace. This is my direct territory, so the patron saint of the Seven Seas Pillar has no control over this place at all."

"Then who else has leadership authority in Haihuang Palace other than you? I mean, is there anyone who can help you mobilize members?"

"Besides me, there are only three people who can help me mobilize recruits."

"Who exactly are they?"

"One of them is Kameda."

"You mean that big turtle that greeted me before?"

Poseidon nodded and said: "Don't underestimate Kameda. Although he is never responsible for external affairs, he is my chamberlain. It can be said that he has full authority over anything directly related to my life." .”

I nodded and said, "I understand, he's just like the general manager of our country."

Although Poseidon didn't understand what an internal steward was, she didn't ask in detail, but directly followed: "Although Kameda has great power, external affairs are not his responsibility. He can only be responsible for my palace." That part of things within the palace, so he can take care of the mobilization of the imperial guards in the palace."

"What about the outside part?"

"There are two parts outside. One is the general manager of the Poseidon Palace. He is usually responsible for the operation of the entire Poseidon Palace. Except that he does not need to guard the Poseidon Pillar, his work is basically the same as the guardian of the other seven Poseidon Pillars."

I nodded and said, "Is this the mayor of the Sea Emperor Palace? So what is the last one in charge of?"

"The last one is my Poseidon General. He is responsible for commanding all the external combat forces of our Poseidon system. Although he is not responsible for the largest number of recruits, in terms of combat effectiveness, he has the strongest combat effectiveness."

After hearing this, I immediately asked: "When the guardian saints of the Seven Seas Pillar were planning to skip you and defect directly, did this general participate?"

Upon hearing my question, Poseidon immediately frowned and said, "Here's the trouble. Exus is a very rigid guy and very loyal to me. The reason why I chose him as my general is because He is the most sincere, and even if he leaves me with a large force to fight independently, he will not have any thoughts of rebellion. But now his loyalty has turned into trouble! "

Hearing Poseidon's explanation, I nodded and said, "Yes! Those guys from the Seven Seas Pillar had planned to leave you and jump ship directly, so it doesn't matter whether you are Poseidon or not, as long as you are willing to take them to jump ship. , they will say that you are Poseidon, but this Exus is probably not that easy to deal with. If there is no problem with your previous description, then Exus will probably not betray the Poseidon in his heart. So as long as you can't prove that you are the Poseidon, then he won't listen to you, and maybe he will think that you have captured the real Poseidon and fight you desperately."

Poseidon also frowned when he heard my guess. "When you say that, it's really possible!"

"So what we really want to deal with is not the guys from the Seven Seas Divine Pillar at all. They only care about whether they can change jobs. The only ones who really care about whether you are a real Poseidon are the three people from the Sea Cucumber Palace? "

Poseidon shook his head and said: "No, it should be two. The general manager of the Sea Emperor Palace is just a manager. Because he is right under my nose, he has no real power at all. He usually has to ask for instructions on minor matters. In fact, the Sea Emperor Palace manager has no real power at all. The person with the least real power in the temple is him. I originally put him in this position because this guy was not that trustworthy, so I didn’t let him out to manage a Poseidon pillar independently, but put him next to me. Dispensable position.”

According to Poseidon, this general manager is the most unreliable existence. In comparison, the patron saint of the Seven Seas Pillar can at least make Poseidon feel at ease about the recruits sent abroad. From this point of view, this This one is even more uneasy than those seven.

"In this case, I think it is necessary to make an appointment with these people alone so that you can communicate first."

"What if Exus doesn't believe me?" Poseidon asked worriedly.

"Exus, don't tell him first. We need to carry out distribution contact. First, we must summon all the guardian saints of the Seven Seas Pillar. One of them knows your situation, which means that you have someone who can be trusted among them. into existence, and since you sent them out to take charge of a Poseidon Pillar, it means that these seven are relatively trustworthy in your image. So on the other hand, can I think that the seven of them are also equally trustworthy to you? Is your level of trust very high?”

Poseidon nodded and said: "The reason they planned to betray me before was because Zeus made it impossible for them to stay in the Olympus Protoss. It was not because they wanted to betray me. In fact, before contacting Aphrodite, They all asked me indirectly about defecting from the Olympus Protoss, but it was because I was unable to respond to them that they skipped me and went directly to Aphrodite to contact you."

I nodded and said: "In this case, they still have a high degree of trust in you. Plus there is a patron saint who knows the inside story, and there is me, their future new boss, present. Your point of view is what they want." Collective job-hopping. With so many factors, it is very easy for them to believe that you are Poseidon. After they have settled down first, we will contact the remaining three. The manager of the Sea Emperor Palace should be a good person. The guy who controls the wind. If he knows that the patron saints of the Seven Seas Pillar have already stood under your banner, and my future boss exists, I believe that he will know what to do as long as he is not too stupid. As for Kameda and Ai Texas..."

"What should they do?" Poseidon asked me nervously.

I thought for a while and said: "You can consider trying to prove it to them with some things that only you know. Since these two have such a good relationship with you, there must be some personal secrets that only you know, even if it is not something It's very important information. Just make sure that only you two know it. Then they won't be able to believe it."

After hearing this, Poseidon immediately said excitedly: "This is a good idea, but it's a pity that I can't use the water clone now. Otherwise, if I just take out the clone that was originally used to support the scene, things might be much simpler."

"It doesn't matter whether you have that clone or not. As long as you have a way to prove that you are the real Poseidon, they will believe it. If you can't prove it, then there is nothing to say. Even if you can prove that you are the real Poseidon, If you do it again, they will guess what method you used to make a fake Poseidon puppet."

"What you said makes sense. Then let's do this. First, we will prove my existence to the patron saint of the Seven Seas Pillar."

After finalizing the solution, we immediately started taking action. Of course, we couldn't take Poseidon directly back to the Palace of the Sea Emperor in such a swagger, otherwise an accident would likely occur. As for the meeting place with the patron saint of the Seven Seas Pillar, that's not it. It definitely can't be in the sea, because none of the Poseidon gods have yet confirmed Poseidon's identity, so it's not safe there for the time being. However, although it is not safe in the sea, it does not seem to be very safe either. Now Zeus's internal supervision has reached its peak. Under this situation, it would indeed be too dangerous if we openly talked about defection. As for meeting in areas outside the sphere of influence of the Olympus Protoss, this is even more troublesome. System restrictions are not easy to break through. To get these Olympus Protoss out of the Olympus Protoss' sphere of influence, they must first bypass the system restrictions. This task is not as simple as deceiving the eyes and ears of Zeus.

After much deliberation, we finally decided to set the meeting place in Greece, because compared to Zeus, the main system is obviously more terrifying. Of course, the meeting place cannot be chosen randomly. The meeting place we finally selected is the lava crypt, which is Hephaestus's lair.

It is said that it is good for Hephaestus to be unpopular among the Olympus Protoss, because other Olympus Protoss are simply too lazy to touch him, as if Hephaestus's ugly appearance is contagious. Likewise, those guys didn't even feel comfortable being near Hephaestus. Because of this, at this time when the whole of Greece was under Zeus's eyes and ears, Hephaestus' cave became a safe zone.

Because Poseidon cannot go into the water now, I contacted the patron saints of the Seven Seas Pillars through Aphrodite, and I took Poseidon directly to Hephaestus and was waiting for them. The white spoon arrives.

The patron saints of the Seven Seas Pillar were worried about the issue of job hopping, so they all moved quickly. We only informed the news here, and they ran over immediately.

According to the requirements, these seven people only brought their two most important deputies with them when they came in, and none of the other members were brought with them. In this way, there were a total of twenty-one people coming to the seven Poseidon Pillars. Because we were afraid of causing unnecessary trouble in advance, although we arrived before them, we did not go out to meet them directly. Instead, we asked Hephaestus to welcome them to a special conference room first, and waited until twenty-one arrived. After everyone arrived, I entered the conference room, while Hephaestus exited the conference room and went outside the lava cave to give us a break.

The twenty-one people in front of me still don’t know that I called them here to explain Poseidon’s identity. They still think that I am asking them to give them feedback. Because they had talked to Aphrodite about job-hopping before, our initial judgment was that Poseidon was threatened, and they wanted me to prove this at that time. In the end, I went to find Poseidon, but the result was not to ask about Poseidon's difficulties, but to find a different Poseidon, and the twenty-one people in front of me didn't know this yet. They thought I was here to explain Poseidon's attitude to them.

Sure enough, as soon as I entered the room, the guardian gods of the Seven Seas Divine Pillar over there immediately surrounded me, and then began to ask me what Poseidon was thinking, and whether Poseidon was As guessed before, Zeus held the handle and controlled it.

Facing these over-enthusiastic patron saints, I could only reach out to stop them from talking nonsense. After calming them down to their seats, I began to say: "Okay, everyone, please be patient for a moment. Since I have Come here, I will naturally give you an explanation, but you must keep quiet during this period." After a pause and seeing no one else speaking, I continued: "When you contacted us before, we analyzed the situation at that time. situation, the result is that Poseidon may be controlled by Zeus, so he is indifferent to everyone's temptation."

"Is that true?" A deputy of the patron saint couldn't help but asked.

To his question, I nodded in the affirmative. "But yes, our guess is correct."

There was a buzzing sound, as if the pot was half boiling, and all twenty-one gods stood up in excitement. First they suddenly said something, and then they all asked me what the reason was that prevented Poseidon from resisting. .

I first stretched out my hands to make a downward pressure movement, and waited until the conference room became quiet again before I said, "This information is actually quite shocking, and before that, I want to tell you a fact, that is, the relationship between you I thought I was secretly meeting Aphrodite, but in fact Poseidon already knew about it.”

"What?" The venue fell into chaos again, but it quickly returned to normal.

When the venue became quiet again, I continued: "Do you think Poseidon is stupid?" Everyone shook their heads in unison, and I continued: "Since you also know that Poseidon is not stupid, why did you test him before? How can there be no reaction at all?" Everyone started to look at me after hearing my words, but soon they looked at me again and shook their heads. After they figured it out, I continued: "Since you also know that it is impossible for him to not notice your hint, do you think he will not pay more attention to you at all? In fact, Poseidon was thinking about changing jobs before you hinted. It's just because of that excuse that he has been unable to implement it. Later, when you tested his tone, he knew that you also had the same idea, but he couldn't change jobs because of the excuse, so he had no choice but to let you leave. Later, you made an appointment to meet She actually knew everything when Aphrodite was there, and he even knew many of the details mentioned during that meeting. However, your behavior was the result that Poseidon wanted to see, so he did not stop you at all. Just pretending not to know anything."

Bang... One of the patron saints at the scene suddenly slapped himself, and the sound was loud and harsh. Although the other patron saints and their deputies did not slap themselves, the slap just now seemed to slap them in the face. , Zhongchen’s face instantly turned red.

Seeing that the atmosphere was so depressing, I quickly said: "Don't blame yourself for now. In fact, Poseidon doesn't blame you at all, otherwise he wouldn't look at you as traitors without doing anything to stop you."

The patron saint of the first divine pillar heard this and suddenly asked: "Then do you know what reason Poseidon had to get caught by Zeus? If there is a way to solve it, even if we sacrifice ourselves, we must Let Poseidon leave."

After hearing what he said, the other patron saints also expressed their willingness to exchange Poseidon for a chance to escape. They were quite moved for a moment. It is estimated that Poseidon would be extremely happy if he saw this scene in front of him. Of course, even if he couldn't see her, he would definitely be crying. After all, she was right outside the door, and the door wasn't very thick, so she probably heard it.

Regardless of what Poseidon thought, I first calmed down the agitated patron saints, and then began to explain: "Actually, this handle is quite special. It is not a problem that can be solved by your sacrifice, but I have solved the problem. More than half of the time, as long as you can overcome the remaining ideological obstacles, then this matter will be considered a success."

"Ideological disorder? What kind of ideological disorder?" Several patron saints looked at me in surprise and asked.

"This is the ideological obstacle I want to talk about." I said and snapped my fingers in the direction of the door, and then the door opened in response. I saw Ling half-supporting and half-pushing Poseidon, who was still in tears. Pushed in.

Seeing two women suddenly entering the door, most of the patron saints were stunned for a moment, because they did not recognize these two women. However, not everyone at the scene did not know these two people, because there was a patron saint who was obviously so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.

After entering the room, Ling closed the door and stood behind me, while Poseidon stood there at a loss not knowing what to say. However, just when those patron saints were about to ask me why I let a woman in, the patron saint of the third Poseidon Pillar suddenly walked out of the group. She quickly walked up to Poseidon, then looked around her for more than ten seconds, and then asked tentatively: "Are you... Poseidon?"

Seeing the other party gently nodding his head, the whole place was once again plunged into an explosion, and this time it was obviously much more chaotic than before. Everyone's emotions seemed to be out of control in an instant.

"Hey, Mossana, what are you talking about?" After the surrounding patron saints reacted, they gathered around the patron saint who had just recognized Poseidon and asked loudly.

"Well...actually I'm not completely sure, but...but...this is probably Poseidon." Mosana explained with some uncertainty. Although she had known that Poseidon was a woman, she only knew about it, and she had also seen the true face of the usual water clone of Poseidon, but she had never seen the real one. Poseidon's true form, so she only knew a little more about it than other people. Suddenly seeing the real Poseidon, she still couldn't turn around. Fortunately, Poseidon had previously used a clone to simulate his own image and showed it to Mossana, otherwise it would have been even more troublesome to convince them that the person in front of them was Poseidon.

The other patron saints around did not think this could be Poseidon's true form, not to mention that Mosana, the only one who said it was Poseidon, was not firm in what she said, so those patron saints did not believe it even more. However, just when they all started asking Mossana what was going on, Poseidon did something. She suddenly stretched out a finger, and then she saw a blue light spot suddenly light up at the tip of the finger, and the light spot began to dance flickeringly. At the same time, as the light spot moved, Shining, circles of blue ripples gradually spread with each flash of light. At the same time, there seemed to be a regular sound like a bell in the air. This crisp ringing sound followed that The aperture spreads out in circles, and it feels like a mother's caress, making people feel peaceful and calm.

However, although this fluctuation made me feel quite comfortable, and it also had a kind of calming power, several patron saints in the field were breathing more and more rapidly, and some even had expressions on their faces. Finally, one of them looked at the beautiful woman in front of him in disbelief and asked uncertainly: "You...who are you? Why do you think Poseidon breathes in the ocean?"

"So this is ocean breathing? It really deserves its name." Ling muttered behind me. I took the opportunity to ask and found out that this move was not a simple soothing spell, but a super powerful field control spell. . This move is called Ocean Breathing, and it can only be used by Poseidon. The range can be large or small, and it can even be directly effective on a certain person. It can be said that it is controlled freely. And what is the effect of this spell... It's basically a hybrid spell of super-wide God's Domain plus directional demon ban.

God's Domain is easy to understand. It is a super recovery spell. As long as all your own members are within this range, they can receive rapid treatment. It is equivalent to a range-type recovery spell. It is a non-interval treatment that can be started from the field to the end of the field. It does not have any effect at all. Interrupted. As for the directional forbidden magic field, this one is quite abnormal. The forbidden magic field is easy to understand, it is the area where the use of any spells is prohibited. The directional forbidden magic field is to specify which ones are banned and which ones are not. If it is a pure forbidden magic field, then there is no distinction between friend and foe. If the other party cannot use spells, neither can we. At most, we can know the effect in advance and prepare more melee strength, so we can gain some advantages. However, the field of directional demon ban is selective demon ban, and there are many ways to choose. You can specify which area prohibits magic and which area does not ban magic, or you can specify a certain person who cannot use magic and a certain person who can use it. You can even specify a certain range of spells that can be used and certain ones that cannot be used. Once such a perverted ability is deployed, unless you are in a one-on-one duel, as long as you lead a few more teams, you will definitely have no problem trapping the enemy.

Because this spell is extremely powerful and it is Poseidon's most popular skill, the entire audience was shocked as soon as this skill was released. Those unbelieving patron saints began to become less sure now, but even if they were a little confused, they would not so hastily think that the person in front of them was Poseidon. After all, this is no small matter. .

"Okay, okay, everyone, please calm down now. I know this matter is quite shocking, so it's better to let me, an outsider, explain it." Seeing that they were almost done arguing, I left. Come out and tell everyone to be quiet.

These patron saints all hope to join our Frost Rose Alliance in the future, so to them I am their future boss, so I still have to give them my face. Besides, this situation is indeed a bit confusing for them, so they can only listen to me and go back and sit down and wait for me to give them an explanation.

After these people were all seated, I began to tell these guardian gods about the water clone I saw after meeting Poseidon and the information I got after arriving in the Iron Empire. After what was said, many doubts in the middle became clear. In addition, because Mosana, the patron saint of the third Poseidon Pillar, has long known that Poseidon is a beautiful woman, this matter does not seem so unbelievable for the time being. Of course, it is indeed difficult to convince the patron saints that their boss Jingran, who has a cheeky face, is a beautiful girl, but at least they have already believed it rationally, and as long as they Trust me, the rest will be easy to handle. After all, we are telling the truth and we are not lying to them, so as long as they believe it now, their doubts will gradually be solved in the future. After all, the person in front of them is indeed the real Poseidon.

After a while of discussion, as the temporary boss here, the patron saint of the First Poseidon Pillar stood up and said to Poseidon and me: "Okay, I have to admit, you have convinced us. We have decided to believe that you are us for the time being. Poseidon has arrived, but this is only our temporary trust. As for how to finally confirm it, we think there is actually the simplest, most direct and most irrefutable way to prove it."

When Poseidon heard that there was a way to completely prove his identity, he immediately grabbed the opponent's shoulders and asked excitedly: "Since there is such a way, why didn't you tell me earlier? Tell me quickly, and we will prove it now. .”

After Poseidon finished speaking, the other party did not mention that method. Instead, he suddenly laughed, then suddenly knelt down on one leg and bowed his head to Poseidon and said: "I respect the Earth and Sea God Da Ru, although there is indeed such a method. exists, but your performance just now no longer requires us to verify. If you are really a fake, then you definitely don’t want a way to distinguish between authenticity and fakeness, but your performance just now makes you eager to prove yourself. This shows that you are not worried about being discovered at all. In other words, you are the real Poseidon, so you are not afraid of verification at all."

Hearing the other party's answer, Poseidon immediately helped him up excitedly, but looking at the men in front of him, she didn't say a word for a long time. She was obviously too excited and didn't know what to say.

Seeing that Poseidon was so excited that he almost didn't know what to say, I had no choice but to take over the topic and said: "Although you already believe that this person in front of you is the real Poseidon, I think it's better to prove it, so please tell me We will prove the method and make everyone feel more at ease before we can be more united."

The first Poseidon Pillar Guardian Saint over there heard this and replied: "Actually, this method is very simple. All it takes is Poseidon to go in and get the core of our Poseidon's divine power to the Frost Rose Alliance."

When I heard what the other party said, I slammed my head and said, "Damn! How could I forget this?"

Stored in the divine power core are part of the souls of the members of the divine race, and most of the souls in the divine power core, apart from absorbing the power of faith, have no control over the divine power core itself. There is only one protoss who can truly control the core of divine power, that is, the boss of this protoss and the person in charge of the core of divine power. This person can manipulate the core of divine power at will, and does not require any spells or control methods. As long as he thinks with his heart, the core of divine power will respond. This is the power of the Lord God, and no other person can override it. You can destroy, suppress or even decompose and absorb the divine core of other gods, but you just can't control it. This is a system setting, and no existence in the game can change this basic rule. Therefore, as long as Poseidon can control the core of the Poseidon's divine power, then she can only be the genuine Poseidon, because you can fake anything else, but the soul stone cannot be faked.

With this method as a base, the patron saints present now basically believe that the Poseidon in front of them is the real Poseidon. After Poseidon expressed his hope to lead them to join our Frost Rose Alliance, These guys' support for Poseidon has reached another level.

After completely believing in Poseidon, the patron saint of the First Poseidon Pillar suddenly said: "But we just can't believe you! We still have to find a way to deal with Kameda and Exus? The core of our Poseidon system's divine power is still there What about the main Poseidon Pillar over there at the Poseidon Temple? If Exus and Kameda don’t believe you, we can’t reach the Poseidon Pillar at all? Even if we have the ability to storm in, we still can’t kill each other over this misunderstanding. What a bargain!”

"This is indeed a trouble!" Poseidon sighed with a headache.
