"Your Majesty, the Great Void Mask, you are the guardian of new things in the world, the promoter of change and progress, the creator of a new life, and the king who presides over the great covenant. Please allow us to pay our highest respects to you! "
Sui Xiong sat awkwardly on the throne, accepting the worship of all the higher-ups of Grey Tower City, led by Old Hart.
He did not want to do this, but the Hart Family always did things by the book. Master Hart said that since Your Majesty was here, they had the obligation to welcome you according to the necessary etiquette. As for what Your Majesty planned to do after the welcome, it did not matter.
Sui Xiong thought for a while and felt that what Hart said made sense. Although he really did not like this kind of over-elaborate ceremony, if it was just a welcome ceremony, even if it was just out of courtesy, he had to accept it.
Therefore, he sat here obediently and accepted the collective worship of the higher-ups of Grey Tower City, or rather, the higher-ups of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Culture.
After the salute, Master Hart curiously asked Sui Xiong about the purpose of his visit.
"I don't have any 'purpose', I just want to wander around." Sui Xiong waved his tentacles carelessly. "I have already been to the Geerteng Territory and the Keane Territory. After I leave here, I plan to go to Garth City to have a look."
Master Hart nodded slightly, thought for a while, and said, "The great beings will not have any ideas for no reason, because they themselves are closely connected with fate. Your Majesty, do you suddenly want to go out for a walk? "
Sui Xiong was a little surprised, and said, "I usually do things casually, it is not a wonderful sign to suddenly go out, is it?"
"For this kind of thing, it is better to believe it is true than not." Master Hart said, "You can think back, every time in the past, when you were too quiet and wanted to move, did something big happen?"
Sui Xiong thought for a while and shook his head.
The phrase "too quiet and wanted to move" was really not very useful to him, because throughout the year, he had very little time to calm down, but more time to "move".
Among the gods, except for the God of Justice Yorgaardman who always sent out incarnations to do chivalry in thousands of worlds, Sui Xiong was probably the most "active". It was really common for him to send out a few incarnations to wander around, so it was not surprising.
But … When he thought about it carefully, he felt that Wizard Hart's speculation was not entirely unreasonable.
Although he usually liked to wander around, he rarely patrolled his territory with a goal in mind.
To be honest, this was not his style. Sui Xiong was neither a lion nor a dog, let alone a Pekinese. He did not have a strong sense of territory, nor was he enthusiastic about things like "rule" and "occupation". If he were to say that he would patrol his territory, this in itself seemed a little … different from what he had always done.
If he really cared so much about his territory, he would have pushed for the large-scale expansion of the Republic of Northwest long ago. Not to mention anything else, crossing the Desolate Mountain Range, expanding to the Great Ice Field in the North, and taking in the Northern Barbarians was a very logical thing to do.
Under his command was Josh, the clan leader of the Snow Bear Tribe. It would not be difficult for him to expand his tribe to the Vast Ice Field. Moreover, he had a bad relationship with the Arctic Alliance, the most powerful god system in the Northern Ice Field. This was mainly because he had a very bad relationship with the goddess of the Northern Snowfield and Blizzard, who was also commonly known as the "Queen of the North."
This was mainly because of the conflict of priesthoods. Although Sui Xiong had decided to develop and improve his priesthoods, if he really wanted to become a god, with his thousands of years of training in the Frozen Trench, he would inevitably have priesthoods like "Cold" or "Freezing". Priesthoods were not things that one could just want or not want. Especially when one wanted to become a god, it was almost impossible to reject a priesthoods that were naturally given to him.
Of course, Sui Xiong did not intend to have such a priesthoods. Even if he did get it, he would most likely give it to one of his demigods and help them become the corresponding god. If the conditions were right, he did not mind ceding this part of the priesthoods to the Queen of the North. But the gods of the Arctic Alliance were all crazy, and the Queen of the North was no exception. They would most likely attack Sui Xiong the moment he got this priesthoods. Unless Sui Xiong immediately gave up the priesthoods, a war was inevitable.
Of course, Sui Xiong was not afraid of the Arctic Alliance, but one of the main reasons why the Arctic Alliance was feared was that they were illogical and had no bottom line. Attacking mortals was taboo for most gods, but they did not care about it at all, and it was almost a habit.
If they were to fight with each other, it was very likely that they would directly blow an extremely cold snowstorm towards the Republic of Northwest, and then they might even vent their anger on a large scale, bringing about a great disaster to all the countries and races in the north of the Main Plane.
Sui Xiong was not afraid of the extremely cold blizzard that targeted the Republic of Northwest. If they fought, he was confident that he would not lose to anyone or any god. But if the Arctic Alliance wanted to launch a large-scale cold wave in the north and indiscriminately attack the entire north of the Main Plane, then there was really nothing he could do.
Even if he fought head-on with the Arctic Alliance together, he was also confident that he could withstand it — and this was based on the premise that he did not use his trump card, the "Double Self-Explosion Burst." But if the Arctic Alliance released a cold wave, he would be at his wit's end.
Just because of a little conflict, just for a priesthoods that he did not care about, it could bring such a disaster to the people of all the races in the north of the Main Plane. He could not do such a thing.
So, if he really intended to take the path of becoming a god, then he was destined to fight with the Arctic Alliance.
But even so, Sui Xiong had never thought of expanding his power to the northern ice fields. This was naturally because he was a simple person, did not have any desire for power, nor was he crazy about territory. To him, there was no such thing as "Although our country is big, there is no such thing as a useless piece of land". This was absolutely impossible. The idea of "all the land under the sky belongs to the king, and all the land belongs to the king" never existed in his mind. His vision for the future of society was probably similar to the Peach Blossom Spring, but minus the rule of "never getting in touch with each other until death," it was the best society where chickens and dogs could hear each other, neighbors could live in harmony, and everyone could live in peace and stability together, without entangling themselves with countries or ethnic groups.
… From this, it could be seen that he was indeed an artist, a thorough humanist.
Now, an artist from the humanist school went out to inspect his territory?
Sui Xiong carefully pondered for a while and felt that the style was a little wrong. To be honest, this was indeed not like his style.
But … what was the problem?
Sitting on the wide chair specially designed for him, Sui Xiong fell into deep thought …
