Origin

Since Wu Zhongyuan did not refer to it specifically, the three of them were not in a hurry to answer. After thinking for a while, Wu Di was the first to speak, "Your Majesty, in my opinion, although the Gods think highly of themselves and are arrogant and domineering, they are not people who break their promises. Since they If they propose a fair bet, we might as well grant their wish. If we have no chance of winning in a fair bet, then other methods will not be very beneficial to us."

"That's true." Jiang Nan agreed with Wu Di's statement, which was equivalent to expressing his attitude.

Wu Zhongyuan turned his attention to Wang Xinran. Wang Xinran flicked the ashes of his cigarette and said casually, "At present, we have no better choice."

After the three of them finished speaking, Wu Zhongyuan said, "I have always underestimated them before. I didn't expect that they have so many three-spirit masters, and I didn't expect that God King Bai Mu could recover his spiritual energy cultivation in such a short period of time."

Wang Xinran said, "The God King not only restored his spiritual energy, but also gave birth to a Nascent Soul. Before we were sent to Xinyue Island, he was kept in an abandoned palace, and the God King was always outside the palace. Talk to everyone in the God Clan and never leave."

Wu Zhongyuan nodded. What Wang Xinran said was also within his expectation. Now that Bai Mu has recovered his spiritual energy cultivation, he can naturally transform into a Nascent Soul.

At this moment, a yellow-robed guard announced outside the palace that the old blind man had been invited.

After hearing the news, Wu Di hurriedly got up and went out, personally helping the old blind man in.

Before the old blind man could bend down to greet him, Wu Zhongyuan waved his hand to stop him, "Sir, there is no need to be polite. Why did the beast tribe send an envoy here?"

The old blind man slowly sat down with the support of Wu Di, "Your Majesty, I was sent by you earlier to go to the Orcs. The Orcs sent envoys this time just for a return visit. They are all polite and have no agenda."

Wu Zhongyuan nodded slowly. Ancient diplomatic relations and modern diplomacy had something in common. They both emphasized coming and going. A visit would lead to a return visit.

"Sir, something unexpected happened during this time, and the situation has changed drastically. Wu Di will tell you the specific situation." When Wu Zhongyuan said this, he raised his hand to Wu Di, indicating that she would take over.

Wu Di nodded and took over the conversation, telling the old blind man about the battle in Dongguan and the situation on Xinyue Island. Wu Di's thinking was very clear and his ability to express himself was strong. It took him less than three minutes to accurately describe the ins and outs of the matter. described.

After Wu Di finished speaking, Wu Zhongyuan was not in a hurry to ask the old blind man for his opinions and views. The development of the situation exceeded everyone's expectations, and the old blind man also needed time to think about it.

Snowflakes were falling outside at this time,

It was a bit cold in the hall, so Jiang Nan walked to the east side of the hall, picked up the teapot on the stove and poured hot tea for everyone in the hall.

After pondering for a long time, the old blind man finally spoke, "We have indeed underestimated the Protoss. It may not be wise to confront the Protoss head-on at the moment."

"Sir, what do you think of this matter?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.

"What does Your Majesty mean?" the old blind man asked.

Wu Zhongyuan thought for a while and said, "Why does God King Bai Mu want to test me?"

The old blind man thought for a while and said, "In my opinion, the King of God did not act out of mercy, and what he did was not a test of the Holy One, but a temptation to the Holy One."

"Tell me more details," Wu Zhongyuan said.

The old blind man adjusted his sitting position and turned to Wu Zhongyuan, "As we all know, the gods are derived from the human race. There may be some highly advanced aliens among them, but the majority are still human races. Killing the human race will not do any good to the gods. The gods I don’t want to start a full-scale war against the human race, I just hope that the human race can surrender to them.”

"Well, that makes sense." Wu Zhongyuan nodded slowly.

The old blind man continued, "The Gods are probably prepared with two things. If the Holy One breaks his promise and goes back on his words, they will directly attack the Holy One. You must know that Bai Mu is the Yu Yuan who has the highest cultivation level among the Six Paths. He also has Nascent Soul. Please help me, if the Holy One suddenly launches a sneak attack when he is negligent in taking precautions, I am afraid it will be difficult for the Holy One to guard against it."

"That's true." Wu Zhongyuan nodded again.

The old blind man said again, "Your Majesty is the Yellow Emperor of the human race. If something happens to you, the human race will be leaderless, and there will no longer be a leader who can fight against the gods. If the gods slaughter and purge our unyielding generals and ministers, the rest of the people will be killed." You will have no choice but to surrender to the gods."

"Yes." Wu Zhongyuan responded. The old blind man couldn't see and could only hear his voice, but couldn't see his body movements. Therefore, he would speak every time the old blind man paused to let the old blind man know that he had been listening carefully.

The old blind man said, "The situation mentioned above is not a good strategy for the Protoss, it can only be considered a bad strategy, because they need to bear the serious consequences of a failed sneak attack, and they are bound to encounter various confrontations when suppressing the human race. The real best strategy It means engaging in a gambling battle with us, ending the war with a fight, and subduing the enemy's troops without fighting. Firstly, it can minimize casualties, and secondly, it can show force and make us convinced of our defeat."

After the old blind man finished speaking, Wu Di interjected from the side, "Xiangguo, why did the God King test the Holy Majesty?"

The old blind man picked up the teacup and took a sip, then turned to speak and said, "The reason why the God King wants to test the Holy Emperor is to determine whether the best plan is feasible. If he has doubts about the Holy Spirit's character, he will not bet with us. Fight, because even if they win in the end, we may not necessarily honor the bet. But the Holy One promises a thousand pieces of gold and keeps his promises, which makes the Gods firm in their idea of ​​​​determining the outcome by gambling. They are convinced that if we lose, we will definitely honor the bet. I promise that I will never go back on my word and let them work in vain.”

"If the Holy One had changed his mind on Heart Moon Island earlier and had not persisted until the end, what would the Gods have done?" Wu Di asked.

"The Gods will take the next step and attack the humans immediately," the old blind man said in a deep voice, "To be precise, they will attack the Holy Lord and a group of generals and ministers. There will definitely be fierce battles and casualties, but the Gods will be able to help, and the God King will also recover. For the sake of cultivation, it is very likely that we will be defeated in the end.”

The old blind man paused briefly at this point, then continued, "It was the Holy One's faithfulness to his promise that made the Gods choose the best strategy. Not only did they eliminate the upcoming bloodbath, but they also bought half a year of time to recuperate."

"Choosing the best strategy is also beneficial to the Protoss themselves." Jiang Nan said from the side.

"What Empress Jiang said is true," the old blind man said, "but we cannot conclude that the best strategy is not good for us just because the best strategy is beneficial to the Gods. In fact, the best strategy is beneficial to both the enemy and ourselves. Deep down in his heart, the God King also hopes that the Holy Lord is People who keep their word, because if the Holy One breaks his word, they will have to start a war even if they don’t want to."

After the old blind man finished speaking, Wu Zhongyuan nodded slowly, "Sir, what you said is well-founded and to the point. In your opinion, what should we do next?"

This time the old blind man did not answer immediately. He pondered for a long time before speaking, "Now the three realms of demons and demons are gone. Among the six realms, only the human race, the god race and the beast race are left. Although we and the beast race are not good neighbors at the moment, we are. We have never betrayed each other, and the King of Gods has promised to give us half a year to prepare, so there will be no large-scale war in the next six months, and the three realms will seize the time to recuperate."

When the old blind man said this, he took a cup of water and put it down, then said again, "As for what we should do next, it depends on how we plan to have a bet with the gods. Only by determining the rules of the bet can we be targeted. Start preparing..."
