MTL - Civilization of Azeroth: Start the Great Pyramid-Chapter 21 Li De's plight

"Ding~, congratulations to the leader for completing the diplomatic mission: the leader's approval! Rewards 200 productivity points.

(Note: The diplomatic mission chain of the city-state has three stages, and the leader has obtained the heartfelt approval of Nogfogg, the leader of the city-state Gadgetzan, and the second stage has been completed.)”

After receiving such a message from Eureka, Li De, who was working, was stunned for a moment, and then showed a helpless smile.

'That guy Nogfogg has only fully recognized me until now. ’

Of course Li De knew that Nogfogg had already negotiated a deal at this moment and had gained a lot of gold coins. This guy still doesn't see rabbits or hawks, and he didn't fully recognize Li De until he really made money.

Of course, Li De understands this. If it is anyone who will go all out and follow you, he will beat a drum in his heart, but fortunately now that he has won the heartfelt approval of Nogfogg, Gadgetzan has no worries here. .

Now Li De is more concerned about Zul'Farrak.

At present, there are still more than 800 troll women and children living in the port under the leadership of Veresa, and now they are completely accustomed to the new way of life. Niebuhr took the remaining 6,000 trolls to rebuild Zul'Farrak.

The sand trolls, who used to have a population of over 10,000, experienced the war in the Ukzi era and the final Gazrela incident, and lost more than 3,000 people. These injuries need to be slowly recovered. In the future, the sand trolls will be able to live a good life with aquaculture and mining as the core.

The biggest problem facing the sand trolls at the moment is their beliefs.

Because the troll beliefs vary widely, they have mistakenly believed in Gazrela for thousands of years. Although the three-headed snake is a twisted evil god, the inertia of belief for thousands of years is still very strong.

Without the belief in Gazrela, the sand trolls are still in a very chaotic state in the field of thought.

At present, there are more than 2,000 sand trolls who believe in the Great Pyramid, but within a few months, even the "Desert God" sect has appeared.

To tell the truth, Li De followed Niebuhr's words and claimed to be the high priest of the desert god, but it was only an expedient measure, because they had a common and powerful enemy Ukzi.

But now that everything was settled, Li De really didn't want to keep them in the dark. Especially when he discovered that in addition to the "Desert God" belief, another more outrageous sect appeared among the trolls, that is, the "God Eater" sect!

This sect believes in Li De directly!

Many of the sand trolls have never seen the Great Pyramid, and as life gradually calms down, the trolls' mentality gradually calms down. The conversion event has not been triggered for several months.

But at the same time, another thing is gradually fermenting and intensifying, that is, Li De killed Gazirella!

Even the Heretic God is still a **** after all, and Gazirella is indeed a demigod, but he was severely damaged during the ancient dark empire, and his strength has never recovered. It can be said that Gazreira is a "god" after all!

In the sand troll culture, only a **** can kill another god. Although there were many other trolls involved at the time, everyone saw with their own eyes that it was Li De who stabbed the lasher into Gazrela's heart.

If it is said that only gods can kill gods, does that mean that Li De is also a god? !

And there is also a very good proof, that is, Susas the Flayer. It is known that Suthas the Flayer was previously split into two weapons: Xanthas the Counter-Strike and Gathras the Protector.

In the Sandfury tribe for thousands of years, no troll can make these two weapons reunite! It was Li De who, under the watchful eyes of the public, withstood the energy storm and combined the two great swords into the Lasher, and used it to kill Gazirella!

Once such a statement was put forward, it immediately spread in Zul'Farrak, so much that Niebuhr who heard it was convinced!

Now Niebuhr no longer thinks that Li De is the "high priest", he begins to believe that Li De is the "God of the Desert" himself!

He didn't know it before, but after he learned the common language, he learned the truth from Haggard's mouth. The Great Pyramid was summoned by Li De's chanting! To be able to do such a miracle, it is definitely not something that a "high priest" can do. Li De is likely to be a true god!

Knowing this, Li De also seemed very distressed. Later, he wanted to return the lasher Susas to the Sandfury tribe. After all, this is a weapon for killing gods, and for the Sandfury tribe, it can be called a holy relic.

However, Niebuhr said that this weapon has already belonged to Li De, and that only "God" can use the sacred object!

As a heroic warrior, it is hypocritical to insist on rejecting such a powerful weapon as the Flayer. But Li De did not want to possess it for such reasons. He wants to build a powerful civilization, but that doesn't mean he wants to build a kingdom of gods on earth!

He knew best in his own heart that he was not a god. If the sand troll is allowed to hold himself up as a "god", then all the years to come in this life, he can only be supported by countless lies, which will make him completely a god!

And what's more terrible is that the world of Azeroth has real gods; at the same time, on Zandalar Island, there is a complete troll civilization system.

In the future, his civilization is bound to come into contact with each other. How should he explain his "god"? He has no interest in expending his energy on endless religious wars.

After much deliberation, the current Li De needs a real religion.

The so-called religion is definitely not about blowing up a god, and it can be called religion by playing tricks to deceive a group of people. Many people who do this are cults at best.

Pure religion should be a systematic ideology, it needs to have the function of explaining the world, and it can truly solve some problems encountered in production and life. Instead of making a group of people superstitious, using this as an excuse to desperately squeeze the believers.

This is why Li De chose Stonehenge among the three wonders to be refreshed this time.

Li De believes that he does not have the ability to help people understand and explain the world, so he needs Stonehenge to help him establish a true religion.

As for the religion that will appear, he doesn't really care how many people believe in him. As long as this religion can help him get rid of trolls, don't let them take themselves as true gods.

It's just that Li De still hasn't built Stonehenge until now, because of the risk consciousness, he is also afraid to build a religion that is not under his control, and may even have a backlash.

After all, there are many "gods" in this world, but they are really not serious gods.

The commentary on Stonehenge said it very well: Invite a demigod/loa/prophet, who knows if there are any omitted items later, in case he finally invoked an ancient god, and want to play tentacles with him, that's okay. It's dying!

After thinking about it, Li De didn't rashly build Stonehenge. He wanted to invite all the important people here tonight to discuss things before making plans.

…

When the time came to evening, Haggard, Anderson, Brad, Nogfogg, and Nibble were all invited to the port conference room, and outside the door were guarded by Mattinglei and Primilo, ensuring that no one would interfere with the meeting. .

"I've already arranged all the rich people, what? What are some good ideas for making money?"

Nogfogg, who completely recognized Li De, is now completely relaxed facing Li De. The others also looked at Li De unanimously, wondering what he was going to say when he gathered everyone for a meeting today.

"I invite everyone to come today, mainly to talk about the beliefs of trolls."

After deliberation for a long time, Li De decided to speak directly.

"Ah...boring..."

Realizing that it wasn't about making money, Nogfogg murmured a little, and leaned back on the back of the chair indifferently. Seeing that everyone's eyes were a little bad, he raised his hands in a gesture of surrender.

"Well, this is very important, I can't get in, just listen."

Everyone ignored Nogfogg, but Niebuhr became excited.

"Teacher, have you finally decided to accept the faith of sand trolls?!"

Niebuhr's mind was already magnificent, and he felt extremely honored to be a student of a god.

"Don't, the first thing I want to say is this... I'm actually just a mortal and can't accept beliefs. As far as I know, even among trolls, no one accepts beliefs while alive, at most After death the soul becomes a loa."

Niebuhr immediately got up in a hurry. In his opinion, this was just Li De's shirk, and Haggard and the others also spoke at this time.

"Lord, we have always believed that you are representing God to guide us, if it weren't for the miracles you performed one after another..."

Li De raised his hand to signal to several people not to speak in a hurry. What he was going to say next was after a long time of deliberation.

"Emotionally, I can understand everyone... What I can tell you is that there is indeed a belief that guides me, but whether it's me or the Great Pyramid, it's just a guide after all. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com is just a support.

What God has revealed to me and given me the strength is that I hope I can help you understand one fact:

We are able to create such achievements, and more rely on our hands to change the world, build the majestic Gadgetzan and Port Hope, most thanks to Van Cleef, Bigowitz ... and everyone who is tough and hard-working .

Without these, I would be the only one sitting alone in the desert guarding the Great Pyramid, and nothing could be accomplished. So there is no need to deify me, is there? "

Li De's remarks made everyone think, but they didn't want Nogfogg, who should have no sense of existence. At this time, he said what was in his heart:

"What on earth are you trying to say? Without you, I'm afraid I'd still be a loser today, struggling to support the deserted Gadgetzan."

Li De looked at Nogfogg with relief and said with a smile.

"Don't worry friends, I'm not denying myself. I just want to say that my guidance is as important as everyone's efforts. There is no need for everyone to regard me as a god, because God is omnipotent, but I am not, without your help me Nothing can be done.

What I hope is that I contribute my strength, and everyone contributes irreplaceable strength, so that we can be more united and move towards greater prosperity. "

Li De suddenly found that he is really suitable to be a leader, and this "big word" can flow out.

But Niebuhr still didn't let Reed go.

"Teacher, can you tell me what the beliefs that guide you are?"

Seeing this, Li De sighed, and sure enough, some things could not be explained by himself alone.

"After a while, I will use another method to let everyone understand."
