Wales thought for a moment, then he sighed and said, "In the past few years, our Cow-headed Race has only been on good terms with the Mastiffs. As for the Horse-headed Race and the Pig-headed Race, we only have casual relations with them. I'm afraid that we won't be able to find a strong ally."
Zhao Hai knit his brows, then he said, "That would be troublesome. Right, Brother, when we go to the Mastiffs, we should ask them if they have any allies. A friend's friend is naturally a friend. Since we're allies with the Mastiffs, then the Mastiffs' allies would also be our allies. This way, we might be able to have several allies." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "That's right.
Wales stared for a moment, then he nodded and said, "You're right, if that's the case, then that would be the best. Right, Little Hai, you have grains in your hands. If our Beastmen really have a shortage of grains, then Little Hai would be a great help to them. We wouldn't need to worry about having no allies."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Alright, but we still have to look at the situation. Brother, the prairie is short of food every day, but if this year there really is a shortage of food, then I suspect that someone is playing tricks behind the scenes. Therefore, we have to deal with this matter carefully. If there really is someone playing tricks behind the scenes, then we have to find this person and deal with the root of this matter." Zhao Hai smiled and said, "
Wales stared, then he knit his brows and said, "There's really such a possibility. Although the Prairie lacked grains in the past, it wouldn't be this much. But today is different, it seems like there's a shortage of grains."
Zhao Hai nodded, "That's why I said that someone might be deliberately doing this. Don't forget about the matter with the Radiant Church last year. They failed once, so they might not be willing to fail again. Therefore, this time's shortage of grains might be caused by them. If it's really caused by them, then I think that war might be the solution."
Wales knit his brows and said, "But the problem is that our Cow-headed Race's losses aren't small. If we start a war, then wouldn't it be harmful for us?"
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Big Brother, why are you so stubborn? With me here, the Cow-headed Race wouldn't be lacking in grains. If there's no shortage of grains, then you wouldn't need to rob them. In the past, when you fought against the Humans, you always acted as the vanguard because you wanted to gain more food. But now, you don't need to do that. You can just say that you suffered heavy losses in the battle with the Fighting Bulls, so you don't have the ability to act as the vanguard... and let the others do it...
. "Wales stared for a moment, then he laughed and said," Good. Brother, your idea is really good, it's very timely. Good, let's do it. "
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "Big Brother, don't be happy too early. This matter is only our guess. If it wasn't because of the Radiant Church, then this matter would be troublesome. But no matter what, if there's a war, you must find a reason to stay in the rear. Even if you want to go, don't participate in the battle. The Herculean Bulls can't afford to lose."
Wales nodded and said, "Alright, let's wait until this matter is confirmed. After a few days, we'll go to the Mastiff tribe. Their lives are better than the other tribes, after all, we sent them a lot of grains last winter."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, since we're in the Prairie, then I'll naturally listen to big brother. Then I'll go back first, wait for me when we depart."
Wales nodded, then he watched as Zhao Hai left. After that, Zhao Hai returned to his tent and looked at Laura and the others, then he sighed and said, "Did I go too far? I actually helped the Beastmen deal with the Humans? "
Laura smiled faintly and said, "This is nothing. Brother Hai, if this matter is really related to the Radiant Church, then starting a war might be a good thing for the Humans. At this time, besides the Rosen Empire, more and more people in the continent believe in the Radiant Church. A lot of commoners even donated their belongings to the church. The existence of the Radiant Church is harmful to the Humans. Even if we can't eliminate them, we can at least control them. Because of this, I completely agree with you dealing with the Radiant Church."
Megan also nodded and said, "Brother Hai, the Radiant Church is our family's mortal enemy. Dealing with them is only natural."
Lizzy looked at Zhao Hai and smiled faintly, "Brother Hai, don't you feel uneasy? It doesn't matter, I think that starting a war might be a good thing for our family. Think about it, what is lacking the most in the Black Wasteland right now? It's the Humans. And when the Beastmen attack the Humans, what would be their first target? The Aksu Empire, if war breaks out in the Aksu Empire, then a lot of commoners would be displaced. At this time, we can send people to the Black Wasteland and give them their land, making them part of the Buda Clan. Moreover, the Buda Clan has two biggest enemies right now, the Aksu Empire and the Radiant Church. If the Beastmen Prairie's matter is really related to the Radiant Church, then the Beastmen would certainly announce it when they send their troops. This would be a big blow to the Radiant Church. And with the Aksu Empire being the first target, their losses would be even greater. When the time comes, Brother Hai, we would be able to eliminate two of our biggest enemies, so why not? "
After Lizzy understood Zhao Hai's way of doing things, she also showed her talent. She became more of a strategist, each of her ideas were very ruthless, but they were also very effective.
Zhao Hai sighed and said, "It's just that the commoners would suffer. If we really fight this time, then the ones who would suffer the most would be them, especially the people from the Purcell Duchy. They have some friendship with us, so I really don't want to do this."
Zhao Hai was sometimes very soft-hearted. But when he was ruthless, it was only towards his enemies. And since it was impossible for the commoners to be his enemies, he didn't have the heart to make a move.
Laura softly said, "Brother Hai, let's forget about it. Have you thought about it? If it weren't for your appearance, then the Herculean Bulls might have already been exterminated. Moreover, the Beastmen might also discover that something was wrong. In the end, a war would be inevitable, and it might even get out of hand. "
Zhao Hai sighed and said, "This Radiant Church is really a scourge. It's a pity that they've already become so powerful, it's impossible to get rid of them."
Lizzy knit her brows and said, "Brother Hai, the rise of the Radiant Church is very strange. A few hundred years ago, the Radiant Church was just a small church that was worshipped by Light Mages. There were even some Light Mages who didn't believe in the Radiant God, but rather the Goddess of Life. But later on, they suddenly became more and more powerful. From what I know from the Imperial Records, it seems like the Radiant God had descended several times. After that, the church became more and more powerful. In just a few hundred years, they were already more powerful than the Great Clans of the continent. There must be something that we don't know about."
Zhao Hai stared, then his expression changed as he said, "The Radiant God descended? Is there really such a thing? "
Lizzy shook her head and said, "There aren't many records about this, but I don't think it's true. How can the Radiant God descend?"
Zhao Hai forced a smile and said, "Why is it impossible? What if there are Gods in the continent? What if these Gods need people's faith as a source of strength? If that's the case, wouldn't it make sense for the Church of Light to descend and help me take in more believers to increase my strength and suppress the other gods? "
Lizzy and the others stared, they didn't think that Zhao Hai would say this. Meg couldn't help but ask, "Big Brother Hai, is this really the case? Are they Gods? Do gods also fight for power and influence like humans? "
Zhao Hai forced a smile and said, "Don't think that Gods are good. Gods are just powerful people. Since they are people, then they would fight for power and profit. What's so strange about this? If the Radiant God really came to the continent, then the Radiant Church's background wouldn't be simple."
Lizzy and the others felt as if they were listening to a heavenly book. For them, Zhao Hai's words were too much of a fantasy.
Zhao Hai wasn't sure if what he said was true or not. In any case, back on Earth, this was what he read in the novels. Even if the Ark Continent was different from those novels, the people here still believed in Gods. Magic and battle qi were things that couldn't be explained by science back on Earth. Therefore, Zhao Hai would rather believe that all of this was controlled by the Gods.
Zhao Hai let out a long breath and said, "It seems like we can't eliminate the Radiant Church. Otherwise, the Gods might be dissatisfied. The Gods certainly have their reasons for not appearing in the continent. But if they find out that we've uprooted their influence, then they wouldn't be polite. With our current strength, we can deal with 9th ranks, but against the Gods, hehe. I'm afraid we're still far from enough."
Laura frowned and said, "Is that really the case? Big Brother Hai, could it be that you're overthinking it? "
Zhao Hai forced a smile and said, "I also hope that I'm thinking too much. No matter what, if I'm thinking too much, then we'll be in big trouble."
Lizzy looked at Zhao Hai, then she smiled faintly and said, "I believe that if there's a God, then we don't need to be afraid of him. I believe that even Gods don't have the Space. Big Brother Hai, there's no need to worry."
