Under the vast starry sky, bonfires had been lit one after another.
The witches in black robes surrounded the bonfires, chanting an inexplicable incantation.
As they chanted, all the bonfires flickered.
They were like candles swaying in the wind.
When the ritual reached its climax, the witches knelt down and offered the treasures they carried to the bonfires.
"Great Father!"
"Almighty Father..."
They crawled and prayed.
"Please respond to us..."
"I beg you …"
However, the bonfires were extinguished at this moment.
The God they believed in did not appear in front of them.
He did not appear like in the records.
The witches stood up and looked at all of this in a daze.
They didn\'t understand why?
God did exist.
But God refused to respond!
Two hundred years!
He never appeared! No matter what they did!
The atmosphere instantly dropped to a freezing point!
The witches looked at each other. They were all looking for the reason why the sacrifice failed this time.
Based on past experience, someone had to pay for it!
That was their rule!
As long as the witches who believed in the God of Black Feasting failed to summon the God they believed in and followed.
They would definitely suspect that there was a heretic and an unclean person among them!
Therefore, they believed that only by eliminating that heretic would God respond!
"Ladies of the feast..." suddenly, a voice broke the silence.
A man in a black robe and a sphinx on his head stood in the middle of the witches.
"I know why we failed to get a response from our God..."
Thus, pairs of eyes stared at him.
"Because we lack a referral!" The sphinx man said, "We want to find the messenger of God..."
"Only the messenger of God can hold a ritual for us and summon him correctly!"
"The messenger is in the east!" He said.
"We\'ve found him!"
"Let\'s welcome him back!"
"Mr. A..." a witch raised her head and looked at the man. "We hope that what you said is right!"
"Otherwise..." she raised her head and revealed her sharp teeth. "I will eat you myself!"
"Hehe..." the man laughed.
He raised the scepter in his hand. This was the Pharaoh\'s scepter!
… …
It was morning.
Ling Ping'an opened his eyes and stretched comfortably.
"The quality of sleep is really important!" he said.
Last night, he had a good sleep.
I'm not dreaming!
Now, he felt a hundred times more energetic!
Thus, he stood up, walked to the bathroom, washed up briefly, and was about to go downstairs.
Meow!
The kitten Bastet's voice came from upstairs.
Ling Ping'an frowned slightly, "Why did Little Darling run upstairs?"
With this question in mind, he walked up the stairs.
Thus, he saw the little fellow's figure under the slow oven. Who knew what it was playing?
"Bastet!" Ling Ping'an shouted.
However, the little fellow was startled. With a light pat of its little paw, it hid the unknown object in the pile of junk.
Then, it turned around and walked to Ling Ping'an's side, meowing.
"Little guy..." Ling Ping'an smiled. "I won't investigate your privacy!"
This kitten actually knew how to hide things.
This was something that Ling Ping'an was very happy about!
This showed that the little fellow was very smart!
Who would complain that their pet was too smart?
Hugging the little fellow, Ling Ping'an sniffed its body.
"You haven't taken a bath for a long time..." he said, "But why are you so clean?!"
"There's actually the fragrance of jasmine!" Ling Ping'an sniffed its fur and was immediately shocked.
Meow!
The little fellow let out a triumphant cry.
"But!" Ling Ping'an patted its head. "Little friend, you must take a bath on time!"
Thus, he picked up the little fellow and walked downstairs. He went to the bathroom and put a plate of hot water for it.
Then, he placed it in the water basin.
Then, he squeezed a little shower gel and rubbed it on its body.
Speaking of which, it was strange. After this little fellow entered the water, its fur immediately became smooth.
To the touch, it felt a little like milk.
There was even a faint fragrance in the bathroom.
It smelled like jasmine, but also like lilies. It smelled very comfortable.
Ling Ping'an felt that he had smelled it somewhere before.
"Hmm..." he suddenly remembered. "Isn't this a little similar to the smell on Aunt's body?"
Thus, he squatted down and looked at the kitten sitting in the water basin like a princess.
"Little fellow..." he asked, "Did you secretly use the perfume in Aunt's room?!"
Meow!
The kitten rolled its eyes at its master.
Ling Ping'an also laughed. "That's right... you're just a cat. How can a cat use perfume?!"
"So, this fragrance is the smell of shower gel..."
That was the only explanation!
Soon, the kitten Bastet finished bathing. Ling Ping'an picked up its wet body from the bathtub and placed it on the prepared towel.
He dried its fur.
Then, he found a hairdryer and blew on it.
After bathing, the kitten looked even cuter.
Especially on its forehead, there was actually a little silver fluff!
Ling Ping'an reached out and touched it. It felt soft and especially good!
Thus, he couldn't help but stroke it a few more times!
"I finally know why some people like to stroke cats!" He said, "This feels really good!"
Meow!
Carrying the bathed kitten, Ling Ping'an walked downstairs, put it in the counter, and opened the shop door.
It was 7: 30 in the morning.
The neighbors nearby had already gone out, either to work or to class.
In the streets, there were people coming and going. It was the busiest time of the day.
Ling Ping'an walked to the breakfast shop next door and ordered two baskets of steamed dumplings and a bowl of tofu pudding as usual. Then, he carried them back to the shop.
He sat at the counter and turned on the television.
It was still the morning news time, but the content of the news had changed.
There was no more international news.
The focus of the news had also changed to the local territory or the news of Beizhou, Nanzhou, and Xisong.
Moreover, entertainment tidbits had also begun to appear.
"Recently, when a celebrity was taking the elevator at the airport, he shouted at passers-by, causing public anger..."
"XX's marriage is rumored to be unstable. There is news that XX might be getting a divorce..."
Ling Ping'an ate the steamed dumplings and listened to the news broadcast.
He remembered the news two days ago.
It was either a typhoon in Nanyang or a global climate change.
Suddenly, he felt that it was actually quite good to have these tidbits in the news every day!
At least, when the news was filled with scandals and scandals of celebrities, it meant that the world was peaceful and the world was safe!
… …
Integral put on the uniform of an elementary school in the Federal Empire.
She stood in front of the mirror and looked at the school uniform on her body.
"It looks pretty good!" She said. At least it was better than she had imagined.
"Your Excellency..." beside her, a diplomat introduced, "The school you are about to enter is the most famous public elementary school in Jiangcheng City, Jiangcheng No. 1 Elementary School..."
"Public?" Integral frowned.
In her impression, the best schools were all private aristocratic schools.
Especially for someone like her!
The school she was going to was definitely the top school in the United Kingdom of Britannia. Every student was a descendant of a noble or a transcendent being.
And they were definitely the descendants of a great noble or a strong person!
"Yes..." the diplomat lowered his head and said, "Your Excellency, the East is different from our country..."
"They emphasize that the right to education is a basic human right!"
"In the East, the best schools are always public!"
"Just like the school you are going to attend..."
"The principal is a retired colonel of the Blackguard!"
"There are many Blackguard experts among the teachers!"
"There is news that there was even a Major General of the Blackguard who taught part-time in this school!"
This made Integral unable to understand. She asked, "Why?"
"Because the Easterners believe that only by ensuring fairness in education can they eliminate other unfairness!"
"They stubbornly believe that as long as the education problem is solved, the root of other problems will be solved!"
"Therefore, ensuring education is their basic national policy. It has been officially implemented for 300 years!"
"Their first compulsory education bill was promulgated during the Hundred-Year War..."
"That Emperor Taizong sold his palace and the treasures that the Beizhou, Fusang, and Silla paid tribute to... and used them as the first education fund..."
"There are even legends that in order to promote the education bill, the emperor himself took the lead to only eat one meal a day!"
Integral listened and remained silent.
After a long time, she said, "How terrifying!"
"Yes!" The diplomat also sighed sincerely, "How terrifying!"
Anyone, anyone who knew a little about this country, would feel fear from the bottom of their hearts!
This was a country that graduated 30 million college students every year!
This was also a country that graduated tens of millions of science and engineering talents every year!
If it weren't for the sudden recovery of spirit aura.
It allowed the countries of the Land of Qin to obtain the ability to fight asymmetrically.
Today, no one could say for sure what the situation of the world was like!
Because, a well-known fact was that at the end of the Hundred-Year War, this country had already announced that the four-year compulsory education system would be increased to six years.
A hundred years ago, it was increased to nine years.
Thirty years ago, a twelve-year compulsory education system was announced!
Teachers, doctors, and soldiers had always been the most respected group in this country for the past 300 years!
The seats of the ministers, doctors, and teachers had always occupied a large proportion!
Therefore, in terms of convention, no one could shake this country\'s advantage!
It was also the recovery of spirit aura that allowed the countries to have asymmetric combat capabilities.
Only then could the world situation stabilize!
"Then, let\'s go and take a look..." Integral said, "Let\'s take a look at the public primary schools of this country!"
… …
Half an hour later, Integral\'s car stopped in front of the school located in the east of Jiangcheng City, near the industrial park.
"Sir, please get out of the car..." a servant opened the car door and said respectfully, "We must now walk to the school for a visit!"
"Why can\'t we drive in?" Integral looked at the gate of the primary school that was at least a few hundred meters away from the parking lot and asked.
"In this country, no one can drive into the school!" The diplomat who had been accompanying Integral explained, "Even the emperor needs to walk in to go to school..."
"This is their tradition!"
"In front of the school, civil officials get off the sedan chair, and military officials get off their horses..."
"How terrifying!" Integral sighed again.
She got out of the car and held her scepter.
Just then, a small black car stopped in front of her.
A young man wearing glasses and holding a pink and jade-carved little girl also got out of the car.
"This is where Ah Ning will go to school in the future!" The young man said happily to the little girl in his arms.
"Wow!" The little girl\'s eyes lit up. "What a big school, so beautiful!"
"Do you like it?" The young man asked with a smile.
"Ah Ning likes it so much!" The little girl clapped her hands and jumped to the ground happily.
The small schoolbag she was carrying behind her seemed to have the outline of a city at the bottom of the sea.
The young man suddenly felt something. He turned around and smiled at Yingula.
This smile made Integral\'s scalp tingle, and her entire body seemed to be frozen.
"Duchess..." the servant beside her hurriedly asked, "What\'s wrong?"
"It\'s nothing..." Integral came back to her senses.
She finally knew why Alucard didn\'t dare to show his face casually in this land.
This place …
It was really too terrifying!
Everyone she met was an unfathomable powerhouse!
