Shangguan Yun's words are just an introduction to everyone, and Zhang Qi's words represent the main point. Everyone understands this mentality. It's like two people have a dispute, and a mediator suddenly comes. When one party finds out that this person is the other party's When meeting relatives and friends, he immediately and subconsciously came to the conclusion that this conciliation conclusion was unfair.
This is a subconscious reaction of human beings to their expected conclusions. As a second-generation human being, Zhang Qi understands the existence of this psychology better, so if he follows Shangguan Yun's words, it will be equivalent to a realization for them. Their psychological expectation, even if Zhang Qi didn't say anything, they would think that the truth of the incident was that Zhang Qi colluded with the Round Table and used the World Congress to realize his intention to annex the World Guild, regardless of whether this was true or not.
However, if Zhang Qi directly denies Shangguan Yun's point of view in order to get rid of this result, it would be equivalent to cutting off the subsequent development of his own plan and cutting off his own path. Therefore, the best way is to affirm Shangguan Yun's point of view. And put forward a brand new idea, which will take their psychological expectations away from the original trajectory, thus producing another psychological result.
"Everyone, please listen to Gu Yiyi's words." Zhang Qi raised his hand to signal everyone to calm down, and then said seriously: "I admire President Shangguan's true knowledge Zhuo Jiangu very much, but it is extremely difficult to do it. From the speeches just made by Alliance Leader Jin, Old Palace Master, and all of you, I was inspired to find another solution that can avoid the difficulty of President Shangguan's suggestion and at the same time be consistent with President Shangguan's way of solving the problem."
When everyone heard this, they were intrigued by Zhang Qi's tone and content. They switched from the previous subconscious to a new kind of expectation. Zhang Qi nodded secretly. It seemed that he had made the right first step, so he decided to further consolidate them. cognition, and then expressed his own views, then continued:
"A dragon gives birth to nine sons, and the sons are all different, not to mention people? The establishment of the guild marks the gathering of people with different ambitions and personalities to form guilds with their own characteristics, such as the Tianxia League where friendship is paramount, the passionate and courageous The Burra Palace, the independent and low-key Round Table, etc., if these guilds are forcibly merged into one, the result will only be increased friction and trigger a new round of human war, do you think so?"
Zhang Qi's words aroused everyone's agreement. They had been directly led astray by Shangguan Yun's words before, thinking that Zhang Qi was using the world to pressure the annexation, but Zhang Qi's statement just now gave them reassurance.
"But." Zhang Qi paused and said: "As President Shangguan said, if we still persist in our differences in sects when faced with the invasion of powerful enemies, the original contradiction will be when humanity is in danger. I got a revelation from what you just said, and I will tell you now."
"Although I, Shacheng, stand above all the guilds, I only want to achieve hegemony, but I have no intention of becoming an emperor."
"What is hegemony? What is emperor's estate?" Old Bulla asked doubtfully.
Zhang Qilang said: "Emperors, all the people in the world are the king's land, and the shores of the land are all the king's ministers. There are no two masters in the sky, and there are no two societies in the country. Hegemons, no one fails to obey the orders given out, and everyone follows the orders given. When we are safe, we are one in war, and we are brothers in time of rest."
Having said this, everyone now understands what Zhang Qi means. What Shacheng wants is hegemony, not imperial industry. Imperial Industry wants to merge all the guilds in the world and establish a headquarter guild, with Zhang Qi as the president. To put it bluntly, this is a result that no one can accept, because it means that they have to disband this long-established guild, which is against the wishes of their ancestors, and is unacceptable emotionally and emotionally.
But this hegemony is different. Zhang Qi made it very clear that everyone does not need to dissolve their respective guilds, but only needs to form an alliance. Once a war breaks out, everyone must listen to the alliance's instructions, but in normal times they should do whatever they want. Not being restricted by the alliance, this not only solves the problem of individualism mentioned by Shangguan Yun, but also solves the difficulty of everyone's reluctance to dissolve the guild. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
Until then, Mei Yue and Lao Bu La finally understood what Zhang Qi meant by supporting him. It turned out that Zhang Qi wanted to organize an alliance. This was indeed what he promised at the beginning and did not harm the foundation of the guild. Interests, on the contrary, have a positive effect on mankind in the world. As guild bosses, they also see that the alliance has other functions, such as resolving disputes between guilds. In the past, when there was no alliance, no one would obey the other. Once there is a dispute, We can only rely on fists to solve the problem, because no matter which one of the three major guilds is asked to uphold justice, no one will accept it. No one can guarantee which side it will go to, but the alliance is different. Its status is inherent in each guild. Above all, mediation has the greatest credibility, which can reduce a lot of internal friction among human beings, which can be said to have hundreds of benefits without any harm.
When they thought of this, the two of them almost said in unison: "We are willing to obey the hegemony!"
For other guilds, this is much more beneficial than the three major guilds. If they were bullied by the three major guilds before, they could only swallow their anger because no guild in the world dared to help them uphold justice, but now The difference is that once the alliance exists, even the three major guilds do not dare to bully it at will. The two of them have expressed their approval, not to mention the round table meeting, they are one of the initiators.
After receiving everyone's approval, the aging leader Jin took the lead and said loudly: "Since everyone agrees on the hegemony, it is natural to elect an overlord to rectify the world. Our Tianxia Alliance is willing to respect His Majesty the Killing God as the overlord of the world."
Alliance Leader Jin's move was quite clever. Even if he didn't say it, everyone knew in their hearts that except Zhang Qi, who would be willing to accept the position of overlord in the world? Even if the so-called strength was put aside, Zhang Qi was born like a meteor from the sky and competed with the world. There is no direct relationship between the guilds, so it is most fair to choose him. The proposal of the leader of the Jin alliance is nothing more than to win an initiative for the world.
When Lao Bulla saw this, he secretly cried out that it was a pity. It seemed that Jiang was still too old and had been overtaken by the leader of the Jin Alliance. However, he was not to be outdone and quickly expressed his position for the second time. When Lao Bulla spoke, everyone quickly expressed their respect. Seven became the overlords of the world, and no one objected. This was the first time on the continent of Mafa that human beings had such a common will.
Zhang Qi raised his hands high and stood up straight. Everyone stood in silence upon seeing this.
"Thank you so much for your love. If you are not humble, you will be shirking your responsibility. We are full of passion and we should repay it to the world. Now the smoke of the Mafa continent is about to rise. I should give everything I have and fight the world with everyone. how?"
"Like, like, like..." The crowd kept shouting, and the atmosphere at the scene reached a climax.
Clearing his throat, Zhang Qi said slowly: "Although the alliance has been decided, it is not just a temporary solution, it is definitely not a permanent solution."
"How do you understand what the alliance leader said?" Since everyone agreed unanimously, it was natural to call Zhang Qi the alliance leader. Lao Bula asked at the right time.
Zhang Qi said quietly, "Treat the head when you have a headache, and treat the feet when you have a foot pain. How can this be a permanent solution?"
"Do you guys know how to handle yourself on a rainy day?" Zhang Qi said lightly, seeming to be asking but not asking, but also mumbling to himself.
"Rainy day? Either hold an umbrella to cover it, or go into the house to hide." Mei Yue stepped forward and responded, but only agreed with Zhang Qi's words to avoid getting awkward in the middle of the words.
Zhang Qi smiled bitterly at himself, "It's what it should be, but it's not what it should be. If you don't want to be hit by the rain, taking this strategy is really a bad idea."
Zhang Qi's words made everyone a little confused. When they were discussing the life and death of mankind, they inexplicably started discussing how to hide from the rain. Could there be another explanation?
"If you are still thinking about how to protect yourself from the rain besides shelter and cover, you are totally wrong, totally wrong, totally wrong!" At the end of the sentence, Zhang Qi's voice got louder and louder. , everyone looked at each other in shock. From the beginning of the World Conference to the present, it was the most important matter of establishing an alliance. Zhang Qi had never been so rude before, but now he was so rude in a small shelter from the rain. He was really puzzled.
"You are totally wrong. The mistake is that you should not blindly avoid it. Although the umbrella helped you block the rain, it covered your eyes, preventing you from seeing the outside world clearly and preventing you from seeing things. Origin, you make it impossible to think about the truth of things."
Zhang Qi stood up angrily, "The right choice is to throw away the umbrella, demolish the house, let everything that blocks your sight and prevent you from thinking completely disappear, then stand in the heavy rain, feel the invasion of the heavy rain, raise your head and ask, God, why is it raining?”
Why does it rain?
Everyone was confused for a while. This was a strange question. It was going to rain and my mother was going to get married. Isn't this a natural thing? Isn't this a matter of course?
In this world, no one has ever asked this question, so no one has ever thought about it. The so-called rain is just a matter of course, but no one doubts this matter of course. Now Zhang Qi stands When he got up, he was the first to put a question mark on the fact that it was going to rain.
There is a reason for the rain, but what about the war? Is there a reason for the war? When thinking of this, everyone seemed to understand what Zhang Qi wanted to express. Zhang Qi's words were like sharp spikes that woke up the sleeping people.
"It is certainly a good thing to establish an alliance, which can effectively resist future wars, once, twice, three times... Do we have to passively wait for the arrival of war every time? Do we have to passively accept the fact of war? Why don't we Think about why this war started, and then we solve it. This is the root solution."
"Gu has grown up in strength, and has grown stronger. Like everyone else, he tried to use his strong strength to solve problems. But now when Gu has grown to be invincible, he finds that the problem is still not solved, and he just jumps from one vortex to another. It’s just a whirlpool. Since then, I have been reflecting on it, but I still can’t figure it out. One day, a heavy rain made me understand everything. There is nothing wrong with being strong. What is wrong is that being strong does not find the target. It is like aiming without a target. No matter how strong you are, His bow and arrow could never hit the red heart, so from that day on, Gu embarked on the road to find the truth. Just as the leader Jin and the old palace master said, Gu finally found the key point."
"Mafa Continent is not an exclusive continent for humans, but it is not an exclusive continent for the Nier tribe. The Nier tribe once tried to monopolize the continent, and ended up being sealed on the other side of the mountain. Humanity's arrogant desire to unify the continent also resulted in loss. In the glory of the Three Heroes Era, anyone who attempts to break this balance will be ruthlessly suppressed. This is the rule."
"In the history of Marfa Continent, during the Age of Three Heroes, humankind was at its peak of glory. It was free from invasion by orcs and could take risks comfortably. Moreover, the hostility of orcs towards humans was not as strong as it is now. In that era when a hundred schools of thought contended, human beings were The era we yearn for the most, however, it is this power and comfort that allows human beings to deify the three heroes, like an umbrella covering the eyes of the truth."
"ah!"
Hearing this, the crowd immediately became excited. Some people even stared at Zhang Qi with evil eyes. They felt that Zhang Qi was so arrogant that he dared to question the three heroes. You must know that the three heroes are no longer human in the eyes of humans. It’s God, it’s faith. All human beings can never doubt the God in their minds.
"Don't get excited, just listen to me and tell you slowly." Zhang Qi also knew that this powerful medicine was indeed a bit intolerable, so he softened his tone and then spoke slowly.
"Gutong read historical materials, slaughtered the Red Moon, and finally discovered an astonishing fact about the two-headed brothers and the Red Moon Demon, a fact related to the three heroes."
Hearing this, everyone was shocked and admired. You must know that Chiyue is a forbidden area for humans. Everyone in the world knows that Zhang Qi stepped on Chiyue. They also know that he has the absolute strength to run rampant in Chiyue, but it is confirmed from his mouth that the attack Killing the two-headed brothers and the Red Moon Demon was indeed a shocking event, and Zhang Qi also deliberately used this news to suppress the dissatisfaction in everyone's hearts so that he could better continue what he said next.
"There is no doubt about the power of the three heroes. They can easily crush monsters like the two-headed brothers. This has exceeded our current understanding of human strength, but no one knows the reason for this. The three heroes are so powerful. Where did it come from? If you have trained level by level like us, what level must you reach to have such strength? This is simply unbelievable. Later, Gu finally discovered this secret. The powerful strength of the three heroes and a watcher The seemingly useless existence is closely related.”
"What is it?" This thought popped up in everyone's mind almost instantly. No matter who is as powerful as the three heroes, wouldn't all problems be solved?
"Dynasty!" Zhang Qi said word by word.
"Ah!" Everyone exclaimed in unison. This answer was so unexpected. Of course they knew what the dynasty was. It was the Biqi Palace that represented mankind. The human palace in name only was not even as powerful as a low-level guild. The Three Heroes Strength is actually related to the dynasty?
Zhang Qida said, "No, the dynasty, just imagine, in the era of the Three Heroes, a hundred schools of thought contended, and the three heroes existed like gods. People almost forgot that the dynasty was the highest center of power in name only. However, the three heroes at that time However, they never dared to replace the dynasty and rule the world, or even willing to do so. Logically speaking, as long as they are willing, the world will rally and respond. After the era of the three heroes, human beings have gradually declined, but the same power is everywhere, but the dynasty still exists. This phenomenon It is a mystery in itself, and it was not until later that Gu Yi learned the truth from a secret scroll he obtained when he killed the Red Moon Demon."
"It turns out that the three heroes are warriors summoned by the dynasty in a specific way, and their combat power is given to them by the dynasty. The meaning of the existence of the three heroes is to protect the dynasty and protect mankind. If the dynasty does not exist, then the three heroes will lose their power. The source is no different from us ordinary adventurers, and this is the real secret of the power of the three heroes."
At this point, everyone was shocked from ear to ear. Zhang Qi's statement completely subverted their understanding, and then pulled the three aloof heroes from the mysterious gods to the eyes of mortals. Is this... is all this true? ?
In fact, Zhang Qi's statement is both true and false. Although most of it is true, the so-called secret volume does not exist at all. He only learned these things from the ancestors of the Nier clan. Of course he will not know this. Speak out, otherwise he will never be able to get rid of the suspicion of colluding with the Neal tribe.
"The changes in the monsters mentioned by the old palace master and Jin Alliance Leader were actually noticed by Gu. During the time of the Red Moon, Gu Zeng personally killed the Scarlet Moon Demon and also discovered the same problem. Since humans have not entered the Red Moon, these thousands of For thousands of years, the Scarlet Moon Demon and the Two-Headed Brothers have always existed, causing them to evolve spiritual wisdom, causing the soul fragments in them to slowly awaken, and these soul fragments are the ancestors of the Neil clan who were sealed by the three heroes."
"Ah!" Everyone was shocked again. Could this be the so-called loosening of the seal? It seems that all this is really true.
"Once the soul is awakened, the ancestor of the Neil clan will be resurrected. At that time, he will definitely lead the Neil clan out of the mountains, and the catastrophe of mankind will begin. This is the truth!"
Zhang Qi's words made everyone breathless. They originally thought that everything was far away, but they didn't expect that it was right in front of them.
"Leader, now that the three heroes are no longer here, how should we resist the Nier tribe's invasion?" Everyone asked hurriedly.
"Not there?" Zhang Qi suddenly smiled mysteriously, "Gentlemen, I don't know if all the three heroes are in Gu, but I do know the whereabouts of Tianzun among them, hahaha..."
"Ah..." Everyone was stunned, Tianzun is still alive? Then...then how old is he? Is he really an immortal old monster?
Seeing this, Zhang Qi thought of his shock when he heard the news and said with a smile, "Not only does I know, but everyone present may also know, and you have met before."
This... everyone was confused after hearing this. You look at me, I look at you. Is there anyone among them pretending to be Tianzun?
Zhang Qi's next words completely shocked them, "The old man in the palace is Tianzun."
Oh my God! It's him!
