Will the little bully fall into the trap?
The answer is... yes!
Very good! As mentioned before, the social atmosphere of Little Overlord is extremely religious.
Of course religion does not mean superstition. Belief in religion and superstition are not the same. Religion is a point of view within the scope of philosophy. The understanding of the universe and the world, and the understanding of the future and past of mankind is a cultural thought. Superstition is part of the point of view in religion, but it is not It represents all of religion, but simply hopes that the gods in the religion can bring practical benefits to oneself.
Our world is a very magical world. There are always things that are incomprehensible. And many of these incomprehensible things cannot be explained by current science, let alone people in early societies. So "God" came into being. In early societies, it was difficult to distinguish between religion and superstition. They all held theistic views and believed in the existence of supernatural powers such as gods and Buddhas. This also created a situation where religion and superstition coexisted, making it impossible for people to distinguish between religion and superstition. superstitious.
With the development of society and the progress of human civilization, many systematic religions have emerged, such as Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Taoism, etc. These religions have systematic philosophical theories to persuade people to be good, not to do evil, and to restrain themselves. Desire also gradually differentiates religion and superstition.
Religion is people's perceptual cognition in the development of society and the progress of civilization. It constantly adjusts itself with the progress of society. It regards God as an incarnation of wisdom and sublimity, and will constantly supervise its own development in secret. Every word and deed guides people to repent of their wrongdoings, promote altruism, improve their character, sublimate their souls, and ultimately become gods, Buddhas, or enter heaven. This is an important step in human development.
Religion is a philosophical thought, an objective understanding of everything in the world, an understanding of who we are, where we come from, and where we are going. This kind of philosophical thought enables people to live without confusion, with direction, and in When you are in a dark period, you can find a ray of light from religious thoughts to illuminate the way forward. Superstition has no rules and no specific worship. It can be ghosts and gods, mountains and forests, or certain animals, such as weasels. It has no principles and no purpose, let alone self-discipline and a good heart. All engaged in Their activities are only for personal interests and do not advance at the pace of human development.
Superstitious activities generally refer to certain psychic masters and witches who can use a certain method to control ghosts and help those who pray to achieve some goals. Superstition also worships gods and Buddhas, but more often than not they only use gods and Buddhas as a tool, or to reach a deal with gods and Buddhas, allowing gods and Buddhas to help achieve a certain purpose and then provide certain benefits to gods and Buddhas. The essence of superstition is to fool people, and their fundamental purpose is to benefit.
At this point, you can almost understand it.
What's over there with Little Overlord?
Maybe they used to be a religion, but now...in order to legitimately occupy the land that doesn't belong to them. They used their religion as an excuse. From that moment on, it was not called religion, but superstition.
It’s not superstition. Who the hell would believe that a god would sign a contract with humans?
In this kind of atmosphere, nothing unusual happens.
In fact, the Bully did much more than Nick Fury and the others thought!
They not only followed the clues given by Nick Fury to find the artifact, but also followed many messy myths and legends around the world to find the artifact.
Especially the legendary Solomon’s Treasure and the legendary Ark of the Covenant!
What's even more outrageous is that the movie that brought the legend of the Ark of the Covenant to its climax - Raiders of the Lost Ark - was used as a reference. We even secretly met with the original screenwriter, hoping to get some clues from him...
The compatriots in the United States were stunned when they received the request from Xiaoba's kingdom.
No...you guys took the wrong medicine, right?
Are all national affairs so casual? Actually seeking help from a screenwriter?
Those things in Hollywood...are all lies! This is a fact that every child knows!
There is no way, there is too much pressure on the little bully. And it’s survival pressure.
No matter how European and American countries help, the little bully knows it. The war is not far away. Although this time they relied on pressure from various countries to get Egypt and several other forces to stop, but in fact they are drinking poison to quench their thirst!
Why does the little bully look so arrogant?
Because they can't admit defeat, once they do, they're doomed! So no matter what he thinks in his heart, the bully has always been very arrogant to the outside world, even to the United States. When a president said something wrong, the prime minister of the bully dared to fly over and scold the president for two hours. !
It’s not that they don’t know their status, or that they’re America’s dads, as the joke goes.
That's a joke.
The real reason is that they cannot accept concessions. Once they give in with such a group of enemies looking around, there will never be peace!
So in the past, the bully would never give in, let alone admit defeat.
Of course, they had to give in in the previous situation. After all, although drinking poison to quench thirst will lead to slow death, if you don't drink the poisonous wine, you will definitely die immediately!
But after admitting defeat, everything has just begun.
Their surrender greatly boosted the national morale of the surrounding countries, and they understood that the little bully could be defeated. The myth they created one victory after another was shattered!
This is very important!
What the Bully has done over the years has indeed frightened many people. There are also many 'pacifists' within these forces. They are not bad people, but they know that they cannot defeat the Bully and they do not want to cause unreasonable casualties. .
Therefore, in the past, they would prevent many actions against the bullies within their own bodies.
But now... none of these people can speak.
Because the myth of the Little Overlord has been shattered, what else is there to say? They can defeat the Little Overlord, so who the hell will resist taking back their homeland?
More importantly, the leaders of those countries and forces saw a benefit.
As I have said more than once before, this place is simply a mess, with various forces conflicting with each other, even if they belong to the same country. What is the best way for the leaders of those countries to stabilize their internal affairs?
Take out the globe and turn to the map of North America to see what the United States is doing?
The best way to divert internal conflicts is, of course, to look for them outside!
Find a country, make it your enemy, and beat it up!
Then the support rate skyrocketed! Back then, the president of the United States who was rumored to be mentally retarded was very unpopular... He was already rumored to be mentally retarded. How could he be popular? But someone else, relying on a tube of washing powder, raised his support rate to a level that no one expected!
Can you still copy the ready-made homework?
What's even better is that they don't need to use laundry detergent for such a feeble-minded reason. They don't even need to incite, they just say: Let's fight the bully.
The whole country howled at the cliff.
There is no way, as I said, the little bully is really hated by others.
This is why the little bully refuses to admit defeat...the consequences after admitting defeat will be too serious.
But in order not to die suddenly, they had to do this.
So they must protect themselves and reverse this trend.
They had just negotiated a peace here, so it should have been quiet for a while, right?
It's a pity... No, the surrounding armed forces not only did not retreat, but instead intensified their troops... Everyone knows what they plan to do.
Western countries can help the bully survive one crisis, or even the second or third time!
But everyone knows that this cannot be permanent.
All companies in Europe and the United States are shrinking, and their deterrent power is fading rapidly. Everyone will give face once, twice, and the third time...it's really hard to say. Moreover, the dialogue between countries is more naked and more impersonal.
The little bully even pessimistically believed that, let alone three times, they probably wouldn't be able to control it the second time.
Therefore, they must do everything possible to find a way to turn defeat into victory, otherwise... they will continue to wander. Anyway, the environment is much better than before.
So even if you know it’s embarrassing to find a Hollywood screenwriter, what if?
What if?
Right.
The Ark of the Covenant!
The Ark of the Covenant is one of the most important sacred objects in Christianity and is considered a symbol of the covenant between God and the chosen people. Legend has it that the Ark of the Covenant was made by God himself instructing Moses to store the two stone tablets of the law and other sacred objects, such as Aaron's rod and manna. According to biblical records, the Ark of the Covenant played a vital role in the Old Testament. When the Israelites left Egypt, they built a tent in the wilderness and housed the Ark of the Covenant. The Ark also moved with the Israelites, telling them when to stop and set up camp and when to set out for a new place. The Ark also had mysterious powers that enabled the Israelites to defeat their enemies and bring about signs and wonders.
According to legend, the Ark of the Covenant was made of gold and was about 1.3 meters long, 0.8 meters wide and 0.8 meters high. Its lid is mounted with two golden cherubim, representing the glory and majesty of God. The handle of the Ark of the Covenant was also made of pure gold and had four rings that could be passed through two levers to carry the Ark to different places. The Ark of the Covenant kept the stone laws, established a contractual relationship with God, and represented God's guidance and teachings to mankind. However, the Ark of the Covenant also has a legendary ominous aspect. According to the Bible, during a war, the Israelites lost the Ark of the Covenant and was captured by their enemies. These enemies then suffered various disasters until they finally returned the Ark of the Covenant. In another story, when the Israelites rebelled against God during their march, the Ark released powerful energy that killed many. Due to the mysterious power of the Ark of the Covenant, it was widely believed to be indestructible, and some even believed it had supernatural powers that could bring good or bad luck.
The last mention of the Ark of the Covenant in the Bible is in Jeremiah 3:16, “‘Be fruitful and increase in number in the nation,’ declares the LORD. In those days the ark of the covenant of the LORD will no longer be spoken of, nor will they remember it. To commemorate, you don’t feel the lack, and you don’t need to create anymore.’”. In 586 BC, King Nebuchadnezzar II of Babylon launched a massive attack on Jerusalem, destroyed the temple, and then enslaved the Hebrews. However, among all the trophies brought back to the land by the Babylonians listed in the Bible, there is no mention of the Ark of the Covenant, a hint that by that time, the Ark of the Covenant had gone missing.
There are countless legends about the spread of the Ark beyond Jerusalem. In 1936, a piece of news revealed that a French insurance company received an insurance policy from a mysterious organization in the Middle East, claiming that the mysteriously missing Ark of the Covenant was hidden in war-torn Ethiopia. They specifically insured it because they were worried that it would be accidentally damaged during the war.
This story has never been confirmed, but it evokes a folk legend from the 13th century. It is said that when the Babylonians invaded and plundered the temple, the Ark of the Covenant was smuggled out of Jerusalem in advance and was transferred safely by Melonicus, the son of Solomon, risking his life. Melonicus took the Ark of the Covenant to Ethiopia, the hometown of his mother, the Queen of Sheba, and stayed there, becoming the founder of the Ethiopian dynasty. Today, orthodox Ethiopians believe that the Ark of the Covenant is kept in the Church of St. Mary of Assume. However, it is said that the holy place where the Ark of the Covenant is kept is guarded by a priest and outsiders are not allowed to enter. Therefore, the existence of the Ark of the Covenant cannot be confirmed.
The followers of Revelation did not have to worry about the whereabouts of the Ark of the Covenant, because they knew that according to the records in the New Testament, it would reappear in the world one day. The Bible reads in Revelation 11:19: Revelation 11:19 Then the temple of God in heaven was opened, and the ark of his covenant appeared in his temple; and then there were lightnings, voices, thunderings, earthquakes, and great hail.
No matter which legend it is, the Ark of the Covenant possesses the power to destroy heaven and earth!
As long as he finds it, the little overlord can not only confirm his identity as God's chosen one, but also wipe out all those heretics!
What a great thing!
Therefore, the manpower and material resources Little Overlord spent on searching for the Ark of the Covenant far exceeded searching for the Dark Trident!
This is something Nick Fury would never have imagined.
There is no way, since they are looking for artifacts, of course they are more inclined to look for artifacts related to their own nation. And it's not just the Ark of the Covenant. In fact, with Little Overlord's ability, they can obviously do more than that.
Not only the Dark Trident and the Ark of the Covenant, but even any artifact that appears in myths in the world, are within their consideration.
Once they find one, they make a fortune.
Many countries found out inexplicably, hey, why are these little bullies running around in their countries?
Are you specifically looking for those ancient ruins and deep mountains and old forests?
The intelligence agencies of other countries were shocked when they checked. Oh my god, these bastards actually peeked at our country's artifact!
Can this be tolerated?
The Little Overlord's intelligence department is very powerful. It is known as the third largest intelligence agency in the world, as famous as the KGB and CIA. Their actions immediately made some people think that the Little Overlord had really discovered some clues.
It has to be said that the power of things like artifacts has been greatly exaggerated due to Kai's power.
Kai has always said that he is powerful because he obtained two artifacts from Asgard - the Destroyer Armor and the Ultimate Storm Axe.
So just thinking about Kai's power immediately makes these countries unable to sit still.
How could I give you the little overlord with my magic weapon!
If the people find out about this, these officials should step down.
Then an inexplicable 'war' started. The Little Overlord's treasure hunting team and the intelligence agencies of various countries began various battles of wits and courage, resulting in many accidents and casualties.
It even affected the diplomatic relations between various countries and the Little Overlord.
