Under the gaze of King Gai, Xiao Zhi could not think too much. After pondering for a while, Xiao Zhi said: "No, I have never thought about competing for the hegemony of this region."
"Oh? Why don't you want to fight for it?" King Gai asked.
Xiao Zhi said: "Because I'm not qualified."
King Gai said: "No, you are qualified. You are very powerful, much more powerful than most gods."
Xiao Zhi glanced at King Gai and said: "Let's not mention that I am not as powerful as you think. Even if I am really that powerful, I am only powerful alone. My world is still very weak, and I am competing for the position of hegemony in this region. , it is not enough for me to be strong alone, the whole world must be strong, and my world has just ended the national war and has truly entered the world of living beings. It cannot develop in just a few decades."
King Gai nodded in agreement: "That's true. According to the overlord rules set by the sentient being system, brother Xiao Zhi, the world you are in cannot compete for the overlord position now. It will have to wait for at least ten or twenty years. , to give it a try.”
Xiao Zhi said: "That's true."
King Gai said: "Brother Xiao Zhi, do you have any idea of forming an alliance with our Qingyuan Empire, as an ally of our Qingyuan Empire, to help our Qingyuan Empire compete for the position of regional hegemony this time?"
Xiao Zhi couldn't help but shrink his pupils when he heard this.
I see! It turns out that the purpose of King Gai's search for him this time was to recruit him as an ally and foreign aid, to help their Qingyuan Empire play games and help them compete for the regional hegemony!
Xiao Zhi fell into silence.
Before, the Star Empire also said that it would form an alliance with his world, and finally it actually formed an alliance. What was the result?
The result was not good. The so-called alliance was just a joke. Star World treated him as cannon fodder, and then wanted to cut his world like leeks. However, he fought back, and eventually the two player worlds broke out. In the great war, countless people died.
After this incident, Xiao Zhi had a very bad impression and strong resistance to this so-called alliance.
As if he saw what Xiao Zhi was thinking, King Gai said: "Our Qingyuan world is not a world of stars. We have come here sincerely to form an alliance with you, brother Xiao Zhi."
Xiao Zhi was silent for a moment and said: "It's not that I don't believe in your Qingyuan world, I'm just a little scared of being cheated. After all, my world and I are very weak, and that piece of covenant cannot protect the weak very well. By."
After saying this, Xiao Zhi also added in his heart: "Besides, your mission as King Gai once came here was to use all possible means to bring down the Xingyao Empire. In a sense, You are just an agent chief, and you are really making things difficult for me by asking me to believe what an agent chief says."
King Gai said: "I know you have concerns about this. It's normal to have concerns. We can sit here and talk slowly. If Brother Xiao Zhi, you are willing to form an alliance with us, as an ally, we can be responsible for protecting the security of your world. , your country of Dachang or the real world where you are located, once it encounters an invasion from other player forces, we can send people to assist as soon as possible. Brother Xiao Zhi, although you are very strong, you are still difficult to defeat with two fists. Hand, if you can get help from my Qingyuan world, brother Xiao Zhi, your real world will become much safer, right?"
Xiao Zhidao: "Xingyao World has said similar things before, saying that it will be responsible for protecting the safety of my world. As a result..."
When he said this, Xiao Zhi shook his head and said no more.
King Gai said: "I said, our Qingyuan world comes with sincerity. We are different from the Xingyao world."
Seeing that Xiao Zhi was still brooding and silent, King Gai continued: "Brother Xiao Zhi, you also know the rules of overlord. If you are willing to form an alliance with me, Qingyuan World, once we, Qingyuan World, become the regional overlord, as an ally, Brother Xiao Zhi, your world can also gain many benefits, right?"
Xiao Zhi couldn't help but pursed his lips after hearing this.
Indeed, once a player world becomes a regional hegemon, its allies will also be able to gain some benefits.
For example, in the next ten years, the disasters that allied worlds need to endure will be weakened by half. If other worlds want to invade the overlord world's allied worlds, they will have to pay 1.5 times the consumption.
These are substantial benefits.
Xiao Zhi pondered for a moment and said: "King Gai, you said that you, Qingyuan World, came to the world with sincerity. I am very curious about your sincerity."
When King Gai heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.
Since Xiao Zhi said this, he was obviously somewhat persuaded.
King Gai said: "We have only one condition for this alliance, and that is that Brother Xiao Zhi, you must do your best to help us win this competition. Brother Xiao Zhi, you also know that the competition for regional hegemony is a virtual competition. , Brother Xiao Zhi, your life safety will not be threatened in this kind of game."
Xiao Zhi nodded after hearing this.
This competition for regional hegemony is indeed a virtual competition. In this virtual competition, the safety of the players' lives is not a worry.
"Apart from this, are there no other conditions?" Xiao Zhi asked.
"No more." King Gai said: "This is a hard condition, because our Qingyuan world is here for your strength, Brother Xiao Zhi, and our Qingyuan world's goal is you, Brother Xiao Zhi. As for other things, I, the world of Qingyuan, do not insist on anything. To put it bluntly, if Brother Xiao Zhi, your world does not have strong men like you, Brother Xiao Zhi, sitting in your world, your world, which has just stepped out of Novice Village, I, the world of Qingyuan, will not even look at it. If you take another look, you are not qualified to be an ally of my Qingyuan World."
Xiao Zhi thought for a moment and said, "Besides asking me to fight this hegemony match for you, do you really not need me and my world to do anything else?"
King Gai glanced at Xiao Zhi and didn't say too much. He said, "It's not necessary for the time being. If there is any need in the future, we will pay you accordingly and we will not force you to do anything."
Xiao Zhi thought: "If it is really like what King Gai said, then compared to the world of Star Yao, the Qingyuan world where King Gai is located is indeed much more sincere..."
However, Xiao Zhi is not a three-year-old child, and he doesn't believe what others say.
He was still skeptical about what King Gai said.
Next, above the group of auspicious clouds over the dangerous land of Xiayun Mountain, Xiao Zhi and King Gai sat opposite each other and continued to talk.
After talking like this for a while, Xiao Zhi said: "I have to go back and think about it carefully before I give you an answer."
King Gai nodded and said: "It should, it should. If you think about it, you can come here again at any time. I will leave an incarnation here to contact you."
"Okay." Xiao Zhi nodded and slowly stood up.
When leaving, Xiao Zhi said again: "What will happen to you if you fail to compete for the position of hegemony?"
King Gai said: "Then let's fight again in ten years. As long as you try your best, Brother Xiao Zhi, I, the Qingyuan World, will not blame you."
Xiao Zhi nodded, and his figure immediately turned into nothing and disappeared in front of King Gai.
After leaving the dangerous area of Xiayun Mountain, Xiao Zhi did not return to Dachang World immediately. Instead, he found a secluded place in the deep mountains and swamps of Dayan Kingdom and sat down cross-legged.
He asked the demon Li Kuo to stand guard for him while he closed his eyes and returned to the real world.
He cannot make decisions on such an important matter alone and must report it to the army of sentient beings.
In the real world, in the Dachangyuan villa area, as soon as Xiao Zhi climbed out of the nutrition bin, a staff member came to greet him: "Zhi Shen, you are back. I will prepare bathing clothes for you right now."
Xiao Zhi waved his hand and said, "No need."
Xiao Zhi, whose body was full of nutrient solution and only wearing a pair of underpants, said: "Don't waste this time, give me a mobile phone and help me contact Deputy Commander Liu Yi of the All Creatures Army."
"Okay, okay." The staff member said hurriedly.
The staff did not dare to neglect and quickly found a mobile phone for Xiao Zhi.
"I'm Liu Yi." A calm male voice came from the mobile phone.
"I am Xiao Zhi." Xiao Zhi said: "I have just met with King Gai of Qingyuan World. King Gai's purpose of meeting me this time is to form an alliance with our world."
Immediately, Xiao Zhi briefly told the story of his meeting with King Gai.
After Xiao Zhi finished speaking, Liu Yi on the other side of the phone was silent for a moment and said: "This matter is of great importance. We, the All-Sentient Army, cannot make a decision, and even our Xia Kingdom cannot make a decision. We must report it to the United World Government." , it is up to all countries in the world to make decisions together.”
Xiao Zhi said: "Okay, once there are results, remember to notify me."
"Has King Gai set a deadline?"
"No." Xiao Zhi said.
"OK."
After making this call, Xiao Zhi returned to the nutrition warehouse, and his consciousness re-entered the world of living beings.
In the world of living beings, Xiao Zhi used the magical power of [divine concealment], soared from his hiding place and flew to Dachang Kingdom.
With Xiao Zhi's current god-level speed and the blessing of Dharma's ability to follow his words, it is already very easy for him to cross the border.
Soon after, Xiao Zhi flew back to the sea in Cangzhou Road and continued to explore his original magical power.
Xiao Zhi's current design philosophy for the original magical power is: the stronger the power, the better, and everything else is secondary.
So, he imitated high-explosive armor-piercing projectiles in the real world, hoping to increase their power.
The result was somewhat unsatisfactory.
Even if he uses his water power to imitate the high-explosive armor-piercing projectile so vividly that it looks indistinguishable from the real thing, it is still just an imitation. No matter how good the appearance is, in essence, it is still made of Made up of his water power.
His water power can never turn into gold or fire power.
Unless he starts from scratch, re-understands the laws of gold and fire, and then upgrades these laws to at least the Dacheng level.
Now, Xiao Zhi would only be able to do this unless he had a good brain.
Therefore, this road is blocked and we have to find another way.
'The law of water that I have understood is not only good at imitation, but also erosion... Since penetration is not feasible, what about erosion? '
'If the erosion speed is fast enough during battle, it is not impossible to use it as a means of attack...'
Xiao Zhi began to change his mind.
After his thoughts changed, he suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment!
Puncture and erosion are actually not in conflict.
Moreover, the puncture does not have to be solved by his water power, it can be achieved by the magic weapon in his hand!
For example, the second-grade artifact Zi Ji Dao in his hand is very sharp!
Before, he might have fallen into some misunderstandings because he had little experience.
He can completely rely on the long sword in his hand to create his own original magical power!
If this idea is feasible, then the original magical power he creates will be a sword technique, a sword technique at the level of the original magical power!
This is just what he wants!
Xiao Zhi, who was inspired, immediately started thinking about it.
When practicing, time passes very quickly.
Xiao Zhi was in deep water, unable to see the light of day, and had even forgotten the time.
As for the demon Li Kuo, he used his ice and snow domain to condense a large iceberg on the sea not far from Xiao Zhi. He sat cross-legged on top of the iceberg, still thinking hard about his origin. Supernatural powers.
Xiao Zhi already had some clues, but he still had no clue.
I don’t know how much time has passed.
Xiao Zhi's figure suddenly appeared on Li Kuo's big iceberg.
"Master." Li Kuo immediately stood up and said.
Xiao Zhi said: "Brother Li, I have gained some insights into the original magical power during this period, and I would like to test it with you."
Li Kuo was delighted when he heard this and said: "Master, you are truly a genius. You have realized something so quickly."
Li Kuo immediately took out his Divine Sword of Protecting the Country and held it across his chest. Blue frost was visible on his body and sword. This blue frost contained a biting coldness and could be used for both defense and use. Kill the enemy.
Xiao Zhi also took out his Ziji Sword.
On the blade of the Ziji Knife, a layer of black appeared visible to the naked eye.
This layer of black is not a layer of black shadow that condenses when the magical power [Sword of Destruction] is used, but a layer of black water as black as ink.
But in Xiao Zhi's eyes, this layer of water is transparent. This is a kind of strange water he has mastered - the water of the origin!
"Be careful!" Xiao Zhi finished gathering his momentum, and immediately held the knife in both hands, slashing at Li Kuo with the force of splitting the Huashan Mountain!
Li Kuo quickly blocked with his sword.
There was a clang, the swords clashed, and the black water on the Ziji Blade quickly spread to the Protecting Divine Sword in Li Kuo's hand.
The blue frost condensed on the Protector's Divine Sword immediately melted like ice and snow under the scorching sun as soon as it came into contact with the black water.
It was not only the blue frost that was eroded, but also Li Kuo’s ice and snow divine power that covered the entire body of the Protector’s Divine Sword!
Then the black water followed the blade of the Divine Sword of Protecting the Country and eroded Li Kuo's arm holding the sword!
