"Didn't the name of the Black Emperor change?"
After receiving Qi Mu's gift and gaining part of Emperor Chong's strength, Zhou Li looked at the paper in his hand that showed his strength and carefully checked every line of words on it.
(Race: Brave)
(Occupation: Black Emperor [Brilliant Intermediate])
(Second career: Chonghuang [Brilliant Elementary])
(Comprehensive evaluation: Brilliant Peak)
"One plus one and two?"
Zhou Li is still very satisfied with this improvement in his hard power. Zhou Li continued to read and his eyes reached the talent column.
"changed?"
When he saw his four talents, Zhou Li was stunned for a moment. According to common sense, talents are fixed and completely unchangeable, except that they can be replaced through soul transformation when reaching the demigod level or the god-given level. But now, the talents of his four favorite artists who were not listed were dedicated to World War II, but now they have taken on a completely new look.
The former master of mass agitation has become the "controller of the sea of people." Language artist, transformed into "language tyrant". The explosion of culture has turned into a "cultural meat grinder." And the "social engineering proficiency" that Zhou Li is best at has also become a "social shadow".
"Is this evolution?"
Zhou Li clicked on the entry "Sea of People Controller" with great interest, and instantly, a detailed introduction panel appeared in front of him.
(Controller of the Sea of People: People’s trust in you will spread like a virus. The public opinion you control will increase exponentially)
Zhou Li was silent. After a long time, he said quietly: "How do I feel that my power is becoming more and more distant from the word "honest and aboveboard"?
"It's not the opposite, it's like this."
Characters clearly showing signs of schadenfreude appeared on the Brave Exclusive, and then he quickly changed the subject: "You have already seen this, so there is no difference."
"Well, then show me the others as well."
Zhou Li didn't pay much attention and continued reading.
(Shadow of society: You are the shadow of society. You can control the negative emotions of society at will)
(Language tyrant: You no longer pay attention to the art of language, because you are a tyrant of language. Your speech will tear apart everything that questions your existence like a tyrant. The more tyrannical your speech, the easier it will be to be believed by others. )
(Cultural meat grinder: Steal culture? Rob culture? Assimilate culture? No, this time, you are the meat grinder of all foreign cultures. You can deconstruct and tear into pieces any culture that is not your creation, and let this Culture no longer affects your subjects or selected people. Of course, this ability also works on other countries)
When he saw the last cultural meat grinder, Zhou Li was stunned for a moment, and then felt a sense of absurdity. It seems that among these four abilities, Cultural Meat Grinder is the most ambiguous and weak one. But in fact, when Zhou Li saw the sentence "effective in other countries", Zhou Li decided that his biggest gain this time was this ability.
For example, there is a country called "Han" on the east side of the Three Eastern Courts. The class problem of the people in this country is very serious. The seniors can beat the juniors at will, but the juniors can only obey.
But now, if Zhou Li wants to subvert this country, he doesn't even need to abolish a single soldier. He only needs to use the function of cultural meat grinder to gather a large number of oppressed juniors and instill in them the idea that everyone is equal. Then he can use the ability of a verbal tyrant to openly denounce the bad nature of this behavior, so that society will gradually be ignited by the idea of equality for everyone.
When he used the shadow of society to squeeze people's negative emotions to a certain level, Zhou Li, as the first pioneer, received enough people's hearts. As the ability of the controllers of the Sea of People spreads, many people in the Han Kingdom will become followers of Zhou Li, and at this time, Zhou Li can launch the final cultural meat grinder to add the final touch to these incited public opinions. Turn on the fire.
The country of Han should be destroyed.
"Huh~"
When Zhou Li broke away from the plan he had conceived, he felt a sense of discomfort. The main reason was that after he discovered that he had rehearsed the destruction of the Han Kingdom in his mind, Zhou Li didn't feel any guilt at all, and even felt a little relieved.
That is the destruction of a country, a country!
Zhou Li felt very sad about his thoughts. Of course, it was not because he was kind-hearted and couldn't see himself being ruthless.
The main reason is that he feels that it is difficult to obtain his own happiness. This kind of imagination only makes him feel vaguely happy, rather than feeling happy. This is so inappropriate.
After educating himself to be content with what he has, Zhou Li continued reading. This time, he looked at his skill bar.
"In short, in addition to the skills of the Black Emperor, I have another set of abilities of the Chonghuang. And the two can be superimposed on each other without conflicting with each other, right?"
After reading a huge list of abilities, Zhou Li put the paper aside with a headache, rubbed his temples and then summarized to the Brave Exclusive: "The main body of the Black Emperor's ability is black mist, and the theme of Chonghuang's ability is Ming Lei. I can hide Ming Lei through the black mist, and Ming Lei can be mixed with black mist when attacking, right?"
"Absolutely, there's no big difference."
After writing this line, Brave Exclusive paused, and then continued: "I have a question."
"You tell me."
Zhou Li leaned back on the chair and looked at the characters gradually appearing in front of him.
"I don't believe that Kallis, the Void clan, will be wiped out by humans."
Looking at a line of ink words on the book, Zhou Li narrowed his eyes slightly. He snapped his fingers, and the formation covered the entire room. He sat up straight and replied, "Yeah, I don't believe it either."
"A race capable of interstellar exploration is absolutely impossible to be defeated by humans in this world."
In fact, when Emperor Chong in the hut told Zhou Li that "the Kalis race can explore the interstellar space at will," Zhou Li became wary.
"Kaya and Ain don't understand the meaning behind interstellar travel, but you, me, and Emperor Chong know how terrifying a civilization capable of interstellar travel is."
Zhou Li looked at the words on the Brave Exclusive, leaned forward slightly, and said solemnly: "If Kalis is really the advanced civilization that Emperor Chong said, humans and gods alone will be completely unable to defeat them. And back then, We have also seen the images, how can a civilization that uses spears and swords for hand-to-hand combat be an advanced civilization?"
"But there is a possibility."
Brave Exclusive did not blindly agree with Zhou Li's words, but made a conjecture: Human beings created by gods may be able to stop the invasion of higher civilizations. After all, this is the home court of the gods. Kalis was also trapped in that different space for a long time, and his strength declined, so he was defeated. "
"The attack speed of Genghis Khan's cavalry is comparable to that of armored forces in the 20th century; the crossbows of the Northern Song Dynasty have a range of 1,500 meters, which is similar to the sniper rifles of the 20th century; but these are still just ancient cavalry and crossbows. , it is impossible to compete with modern power.”
After slowly reciting a famous quote from "The Three-Body Problem", Zhou Li summoned the black mist and let it billow in the palm of his hand: "The civilization of this world is still stuck in the extremely backward "use" of energy. Whether it is mages or warriors, , or any professional, is asking for the world. If Kallis really has endless energy, humans and gods are not worthy to compete with him."
"And don't forget that I asked Emperor Chong before leaving."
"You asked him if he told you three fairy tales?"
Faced with those who had not seen The Three-Body Problem and did not know about Yun Tianming and the three fairy tales, Zhou Li nodded and said softly: "In The Three-Body Problem, Yun Tianming used three fairy tales to remind mankind what kind of things they will suffer. Attack, and the key to escape. And Emperor Chong gave me exactly three truths at that time. When I asked him if he gave me three fairy tales."
"He told me, yes."
"you mean……"
Looking at the incredible characters exclusive to the brave, Zhou Li smiled.
"That's right." The three truths about Kalis emerged in his mind and he gradually pieced them together. "Those three truths are probably false."
"Callis is not a so-called interstellar traveler."
"And their purpose is not simply to save."
*************************************************** ***
"Don't forget to send us a message when you get there."
In the world's largest flying port - Yongen Hex Port, Zhou Li and Eluma stood at the boarding gate, in front of them were Azi and his party.
Azi raised her head. The huge port was like a miracle, making people feel respected from the bottom of their hearts. The Hexairship Zhou Li and Eluma boarded was a manned airship named "Arbor". As a traveler in the new era, Zhou Li did not choose high-quality and low-priced cargo airships, nor did he contact the mysterious smuggling airships. He directly chose to charter the most luxurious airship, the Arbor, without any hint of humility.
"I've been working hard for more than a year, and I still don't let me enjoy it anymore" - Zhou Li said when he chartered the airship.
"Don't worry, we'll send you a message when we get there."
Faced with Ah Zi's instructions, Zhou Li agreed. Then he looked at his watch and found that it was almost time for the airship to take off. Looking at Ah Zi who seemed to have something to say, Zhou Li first motioned for her to be silent, then turned his head and shouted:
"I'll pay you a thousand more gold coins, and I'll be chatting for half an hour."
"Come on, come on, I won't talk to you anymore."
Faced with Zhou Li's sudden move, Ah Zi and the others were dumbfounded. Zhou Li smiled, waved his hand, and turned around and walked towards the airship with Eluma reluctant to leave.
“Don’t forget to send a message!!!”
After boarding the airship, Azi, who was lifted up by Linghai, kept waving her arms towards the window of the airship. Her particularly cute look made Eluma beside her laugh. She rolled down the window and waved her hand gently to indicate that she heard. Seeing this, Ah Zi put down her arms and jumped down.
"It's like you have a daughter."
After pouring a cup of coffee and adding six spoons of sugar, Zhou Li looked at Eluma who kept looking out the window, chuckled and said, "What? It's your first time making an airship?"
"Yeah, it's my first time on an airship."
Eluma was very excited to ride on human intelligence for the first time and was full of curiosity about everything. Under Zhou Li's reputation as a wealthy businessman, the flight attendants were also happy to explain the airship to this cute and beautiful girl. As a hard-working civil servant who flew around the world every day in his previous life, Zhou Li had long been accustomed to airships, to the point of numbness.
************The following will be revised later, and I will make up for a chapter tomorrow******************
1.The new painter of the kingdom
A long time ago, there was a kingdom called the Storyless Kingdom, which had no stories. In fact, for a kingdom, no story is the best, and the people in the kingdom without stories are the happiest, because stories mean twists and disasters.
The Kingdom of No Story has a wise king, a kind queen, a group of upright and capable ministers, as well as hard-working and simple people. The life in the kingdom is as calm as a mirror. Yesterday is like today, today is like tomorrow, last year is like this year, and this year is like next year. There has been no story.
Until the prince and princess grow up.
The king has two sons, Prince Waterdeep and Prince Smoothie, and a daughter: Princess Dewdrop.
Prince Deepwater went to Tomb Island in the Taotie Sea when he was a child and never came back. The reason will be explained later.
Prince Smoothie grew up with his father and queen, but it also made them deeply worried. This child is very smart, but has shown a violent character since childhood. He asked his servants to collect many small animals from outside the palace, and he played the empire game with these small animals. He named himself the emperor, and the small animals were his subjects. The subjects were all slaves. If they disobeyed the slightest bit, they would be beheaded, and the game would often end. When all the little animals were killed, Smoothie stood on the ground laughing wildly in the blood... As the prince grew up, his personality became more restrained, becoming taciturn and with gloomy eyes. The king knew that this was just a wolf hiding its fangs, and there was a nest of hibernating poisonous snakes in Bingsha's heart, waiting for the chance to wake up. The king finally decided to cancel Prince Smoothie's right to the throne and let Princess Dewdrop inherit the throne. The Kingdom of No Story will have a queen in the future.
If there is a certain amount of virtues passed down from father and mother to offspring, then the missing part of Prince Smoothie must have been given to Princess Dewdrop. The princess is smart, kind, and incomparably beautiful. When she comes out during the day, the sun will dim its brilliance. When she walks at night, the moon will open its eyes. When she speaks, all the birds will stop singing. The wasteland she walks on will grow gorgeous flowers. Luzhu will definitely be supported by all the people when she becomes the queen, and the ministers will fully assist her. Even Prince Bingsha didn't say anything about this, but his eyes became more gloomy.
Thus, the storyless kingdom has stories.
The king officially announced the decision on his sixtieth birthday. On this night of celebration, the night sky was decorated with fireworks into a gleaming garden. The brilliant lights almost turned the palace into a transparent crystal palace. Amidst the joyful songs and laughter, the wine flowed like a river...
Everyone was immersed in happiness. Even the ice-cold heart of Prince Smoothie seemed to be melted. He changed his past gloominess and respectfully wished his father a birthday, wishing that the light of his life would always shine on the kingdom like the sun. . He also praised his father's decision, saying that Princess Luzhu was indeed more suitable to be a monarch than himself. He blessed his sister and hoped that she would learn more about country governance from her father in order to prepare for taking on important responsibilities in the future. His sincerity and kindness moved everyone.
"My son, I'm so happy to see you like this." The king stroked the prince's head and said, "I really want to keep this beautiful time forever."
So some ministers suggested that a giant oil painting should be made to depict the scene of the celebration and hung in the palace as a commemoration.
The king shook his head, "My painter is old. The world has become foggy in his dim old eyes. His trembling old hands can no longer paint our happy smiles."
"I was about to say this," Prince Smoothie bowed deeply to the king, "My father, I was about to present you with a new painter."
After the prince finished speaking, he gestured behind him, and the new painter walked in immediately. This was a big boy, who looked to be about fourteen or fifteen years old. He was wrapped in a monk's gray cloak. He looked like a frightened little mouse among the splendid palace and the jeweled guests. When he walked, his already thin body tightened into a tree branch, as if he was always avoiding invisible thorns around him.
The king looked a little disappointed when he looked at the painter in front of him, "Can he master such advanced skills at such a young age?"
The prince bowed again, "My father, his name is Needle Eye, comes from Helsingen Mosken, and is the best student of the great painter Ethereal. He has been studying painting with the great painter since he was five years old, and has studied for ten years now. Years ago, he was deeply influenced by the ethereal painter. He is as sensitive to the colors and shapes of the world as we are to a red-hot iron. This feeling is solidified on the canvas through his godlike brush. Apart from the ethereal painter, he is unparalleled in the world. "The prince turned to the needle-eye painter, "As a painter, you can look directly at the king. It is not rude."
The needle-eye painter raised his head and glanced at the king, then immediately lowered his head.
The king was a little surprised, "My child, your eyes are very sharp, like a sword unsheathed next to the flames. It is extremely inappropriate for your age."
The needle-eye painter spoke for the first time: "Supreme King, please forgive the offense of a humble painter. These are the eyes of a painter. He must first paint in his heart. I have painted you, your majesty and wisdom together." In my mind, I will draw it into the painting.”
