"Today is a day worthy of being recorded in history. From today onwards, the republic system has appeared for the first time in the history of world civilization. This is a great beginning … "
Sui Xiong, who was invisible and floating in the sky, could not help but smile as he listened to Felix's serious speech on the high platform below. He announced the formal establishment of the Republic of Northwest.
"You've really done something amazing!" Javier smiled and poured him a glass of wine. "I've visited a few very old gods and discussed what you've done. Most of them feel that what you've done may seem deviant at first glance, but when they think about it carefully, they find it very desirable. Now many gods feel that you're probably not messing around, but really pushing the progress of civilization. "
"Eh?! They've changed their minds so quickly? " Sui Xiong was a little surprised. Although he believed that the republic system would definitely be much more progressive than the aristocratic feudal system, according to his estimation, it would take at least another few decades or a century for the Republic of Northwest to prosper and show vitality and exuberance before they could convince the gods with facts.
Unexpectedly, there were indeed many wise people among the gods. Just by silently deducing and thinking, they could see the advantages of the republic system.
"What else did they say?" Sui Xiong asked curiously.
"There's too much to say specifically … I'll choose a few that are representative. His Majesty the God of Light thinks that although your approach has temporarily damaged the social hierarchy, it can build a more efficient, more dynamic, and more motivating social hierarchy. So he is very much looking forward to seeing how the Republic of Northwest will develop. He also said that if you encounter any trouble, you can ask him for help. Of course, he will also help you suppress some of the obstacles, so you don't have to worry about being rejected by the royal and aristocratic gods. "
Sui Xiong's eyes lit up. Although he did not like the God of Light's character, he had to admit that this master god was powerful and amazing. If he could get his support, the future of the Republic of Northwest would not be as stable as Mount Tai, but at least his biggest worry would be gone.
To be honest, he was still very afraid of the God of Aristocracy. This god was very capable, and his methods were more powerful than his abilities. Especially his ability to play tricks, which made Sui Xiong secretly afraid. If he could, Sui Xiong would rather fight to the death with him than fight with his wits and schemes.
He knew himself very well. He was not a person who was good at scheming. Even with the information from Crick, and Crick's experience in fighting wits and courage with the surrounding aristocrats over the past few years, he did not feel that he could gain the slightest advantage in terms of conspiracies when facing the God of Aristocracy.
Not to mention that the God of Aristocracy had an ally in the form of the God of Conspiracy. With the two conspirators together, it was not as simple as one plus one equals two!
Fortunately, the God of Light had spoken. As long as he could do what he said, the God of Aristocracy would definitely not have the courage to go against the Lord of the Human Gods — the God of Light was recognized as a tyrant. If the God of Aristocracy dared to play along with him, there was a hundred percent chance that the God of Aristocracy would take action to clean up the mess and directly ask the God of Aristocracy to replace them with someone else.
The Human God System was full of talents. There were many outstanding Demigods, Holy Spirits, and low-level Gods. There were also many Gods who were stuck at the threshold of weak Divine Power and had yet to find a suitable Priesthood, or the Priesthood that was suitable for them had already been taken by others, so they were unable to progress. It was no exaggeration to say that if the majority of the Gods in the Human God System, including the God of Light himself, fell, they could find replacements in a very short period of time. Some Priesthoods could even find several replacements.
The God of Aristocracy definitely had replacements, just as she herself was one of the replacements for the old God of Royalty. Later, she killed the old God of Royalty through a conspiracy and seized several Priesthoods. Only then did she become a God of Aristocracy and become a rising star in the Human God System.
But even so, the Priesthood of "Royalty" did not fall into her hands. Instead, under the arrangement of the God of Light, it was inherited by an ancient Sage King transformed into a Holy Spirit. Although the new God of Royalty usually kept a low profile and did not have a sense of presence, the God of Aristocracy never dared to do anything against him.
Of course, this was not because the new God of Royalty, who was only a weak Divine Power, had any special abilities, but because the God of Aristocracy did not dare to take the risk of angering the God of Light.
The deterrent power of the God of Light was evident from this!
And for Sui Xiong, hearing the God of Light's affirmation of the Republic not only meant that he could not be wary of the God of Aristocracy for a period of time, but it was also a great motivation.
The God of Light was the key figure who led the human race from being weak to becoming strong. Before him, although the God of Knights was brave and good at fighting, he could only barely maintain the survival of the human race and had no way to make the human race bigger and stronger. Until he stepped on the stage and used all kinds of methods, be it civil or military, openly or secretly. Among them, there were also many that could not see the light of day or were drenched in blood. Sui Xiong did not agree with all of his methods, but he had no choice but to acknowledge his results.
Now, the human race was already the most powerful race on the Main Plane. Not only did it far surpass the dwarfs, pygmies, and other races that were similar to his situation in the past, but it had even, to a certain extent, overwhelmed their mortal enemy of tens of thousands of years — the Orcs.
One must know that in terms of innate conditions, the human race was actually far from the Orcs.
Back when the God of Knights was the Master God of the human race, he only knew how to blindly fight with the Orcs. Although he was very brave and even single-handedly almost defeated the Orc God System, the development of the human race was also greatly hindered. Until the time when he stepped down, the human race had not been able to develop.
When the God of Light came to power, the first strategy he adopted was to take the initiative to retreat and direct the human race to migrate. He gave up the grassland in the central north of the Main Plane, which was the most vast and rich in resources, and turned to guard the natural defense line surrounded by the three mountains — Gray Stone, Giant Beast, and Broken Cloud — which was the current Eagle Kingdom. At the same time, he bypassed the Broken Cloud Mountain and launched an attack toward the south, suppressing and seizing the territory of the pygmies — which was the current Kingdom of the Blue Moon.
The human race used about two thousand years to defeat the pygmy country and annexed the fertile land along the central and eastern coast. After about a thousand years of operation, they launched a large-scale attack on the territory of the elves. The Kingdom of Thousands of Springs was established during that attack. Until today, the Kingdom of Thousands of Springs was still gradually nibbling away at the Ancient Forest where the elves lived, without stopping. At the border, there were often fierce conflicts between the human race and the elves.
It took about five thousand years for the human race to obtain a stable territory and focus on development. In the next few thousand years, the human race ushered in a period of talent explosion, and nearly twenty gods emerged. Although most of these gods had fallen, it was during that period that the human race was established as the overlord of the Main Plane.
By right, when the human race had developed to this stage, it was almost time to reach the geographical limit. After all, be it the sea or the desert, they were not suitable for the human race to reproduce and live. The only thing left to do was to choose whether to fight the Orcs or the elves.
However, the God of Light found another way under such circumstances and launched a grand immigration and development plan that was later known as the "Great Voyage."
The establishment of the Commonwealth of Gold Coins, the Commonwealth of Mifata, the Duchy of Thunder, and the Dhaka Business Alliance were all the results of the Great Voyage. The price, the hard work, the sweat, and the sacrifices were incalculable. But no matter what, the human race succeeded in the end and occupied more than one-third of the territory on the Main Plane, becoming the well-deserved overlord of the Main Plane.
All of this was achieved under the leadership of the God of Light!
To be able to obtain the approval of this peerless hero, even if Sui Xiong did not like him, he could not help but feel a little smug.
