Sand Sculpture Demon King, Online Farming - Chapter 213

01.

Rumor is a very powerful thing. It may be just a seed, but the weakness of human nature will water it to grow up little by little. Some ‘theories’ are the same as ‘views’. Some ‘theories’ people presuppose their own positions before they are heard, and the subsequent belief and diffusion are just a matter of course. The rumors stop at the wise, but they don’t stop at the truth.

A rumor, as long as it is born, is a victory. No matter how to dispel the rumor, no matter how to explain it, and no matter how to show the truth, there will always be people who continue to believe and continue to hold on to their own opinions.

After experiencing the cyber bombardment on Earth, Hill understood this very well.

The Mozu has never spoken out in the realm of human thought. From two years ago to now, its proportion has increased. Its advantage lies in its seeming perfection.

The power of the speeches circulated by the church lies in two points. The first is that people who have money to go to the demon world are opposed to those who have no money to go to the demon world. Previously, people without money would envy those who have money to enjoy the demon world. Nobles or merchants, but now someone tells them that these people are stupid and have a lot of money. In fact, there is no need to spend so much money. This subtly stimulates their inner hatred of the rich and makes them lose what they used to be. It’s pure envy; the second is to oppose the human world and the demon world. We humans have once defeated the demon clan. Why did we go to the demon world before the human world was finished, and the demon world should not be so good.

In addition, the Pope knew something about the real situation of the Demon World, so his move was really ruthless.

Hill understands that with the gradual improvement of the people’s intelligence, there will be other ideas that will emerge one day. The dominance of a family does not mean that it will always be one word, but such development is a natural thing, and there must be a process, unlike Now that the church is pushing behind this, Hill has always been a stingy person.

The last stroke fell. Hill looked at the words written on the parchment. He blew the wet ink, as if to himself: “Although the pen and paper are better to use, it turns out that the parchment and the quill are better. Matching is more romantic.”

These words were idle and careless, in stark contrast to the harsh instructions on the parchment.

The emperor looked angry, talked and laughed and murdered.

The clouds closed outside the window, and the moonlight disappeared.

Five days later, the first wave of tourists from the Demon World Tour Group returned to the Human World. They immediately became the focus of all banquets. Every time they appeared in public, someone would come forward to ask about related matters. Some of them also heard the remarks in the room, which made them very angry. They have publicly reprimanded these thoughts many times, which made the whole situation a little better. After all, the parties have come forward. More people are waiting for the demon’s counterattack, waiting for the counterattack of His Royal Highness Greenward, to see how he responds to these remarks.

As a result, Hill has remained quiet, which surprised many people.

Three days later, “Mozu Magazine” came out. There were two articles about travel experiences, written by two tourists in the tour group. After all, he is a nobleman, so writing is very good, and it is personal experience, so it seems to be sincere, and then matched with a few pictures of the devil, which makes people yearn after seeing it. In addition, there are some short comments from other tourists.

“It’s so beautiful!!!”

“It feels like I was in a dream for those fifteen days!”

“I really want to stay in the Demon Realm forever and not come back…”

“After that, I plan to reconsider the future development direction. If possible, I hope to find something to do in the demon world, not only because of the enjoyment of beautiful scenery, but also because the whole atmosphere here is very good.”

Compared with long texts, these short sentences seem to arouse people’s emotions more.

Afterwards, a promotional video of Devil Travel was launched on the magic phone. After obtaining the consent of some tourists, they were also photographed and became part of the material.

Fantastic and charming scenery, rich food, great enjoyment, blue sky and blue sea, mist-shrouded town, firefly forest, and adventure in the blood castle with ancient lanterns… all of these are fascinating.

At the end of the promo, the demons stood in two rows on the luxurious stairs, and many people almost danced in ecstasy after seeing this scene. Supergirl, Hell Frontier, Siren Singer Cindy, Arman the Devil, Death Knight… are all popular stars, everyone said together: “Welcome to the Demon World.”

Then the camera turned, it was the Blackrock Tower in the night, with a **** full moon hanging on the spire, and then Hill’s voice appeared:

“Welcome to the Demon World, you will find that the scenery in the Demon World is very good, and it is not just the scenery that is good.”

From the beginning to the end, he did not appear in the camera. After all, he is now the devil with his external identity, so sometimes he has to hold on to it. ——This is also the biggest reason Hill made his identity a prince in the beginning.

This promotional film is as perfect as the previous ones, and there are tourists who have come out to speak out, so the voices of the folks are much smaller.

Oitin Empire. The white holy city.

When Teresa found the Pope, he was coming out of the Oitin Palace with King Oytin. Theresa and the King were saluting each other. The King was still wearing white soft armor and his hair was silver. Rumors say his The ancestors have elven blood. His silver-white noble hair is tied behind his back, his features are exquisite, and the corners of his lips always have a casual smile. Almost no one knows what he is thinking, everyone only knows that he listens to all the words of the Pope.

Compared with him, the pope looks more majestic, with white vestments dragging on the red carpet of the steps, behind which is the white palace with gorgeous towers. When he lowered his head to look at Teresa, Teresa felt that he had been seen through for a moment. Then he lowered his eyes and made clear his intentions: “Your Excellency the Pope, the demons have announced the promotional video.”

“Looking at your expression, we don’t seem to be going well,” the pope said.

Teresa glanced at His Majesty the King and said nothing.

King Oytin said with a gentle smile: “Then Archbishop Shelley and the Pope will talk about business first, I’ll go first.” After speaking, he owed him to the two, turned and left.

Teresa mumbled in his heart why the King was so obedient. He deliberately used that look to indicate that he was an outsider, but in the end he really admitted his identity and left. But now that the king has left, Teresa continues to say: “The promotional film is as perfect as the previous films of the Demon, and the reactions of those tourists who go to the Demon Realm are the same as those of those who were deceived by the Demon before.”

The pope frowned, he pondered for a moment, and said, “Theresa, you have been in the Demon Realm for a few months, do you know the appearance of the Demon Realm?”

“I know.” Teresa said. In fact, when the Pope first used this trick, Teresa gave Hill a sweat. “It’s completely different from what they described.” He said.

“This is just such a short time, so many changes have been ushered in.” The pope is still frowning.

“Are you saying that the Demon Race has changed the Demon Realm during these two years?” Teresa asked.

“Don’t say anything else, it’s just the floating island…” The pope repeated softly: “Where did they get so many supplies and magic spar?”

“Maybe they are overdrawing?” Teresa guessed.

“The Devil’s Mall has plundered a lot of human resources.” The Pope said.

Teresa’s heart burst.

“The Demon Realm shopping malls in various places continuously earn a large amount of gold coins to build the Demon Realm.” The Pope continued.

Teresa felt a little sweat in her palms.

“It can only be explained by this. The Demon World has its own supplies, and the addition of the Human World…” the pope said, “By the way, did the Demon Race directly respond to the rumors?”

“No.” Teresa said, “They just killed the hidden lines we exposed.”

“Didn’t you hide it?” the Pope asked.

“No.” Teresa said, “The participants were soul-searched by the necromancers. Many people have sequelae, and many others have lost their lives.”

The pope paused with a sad expression, and then he drew a cross on his chest: “The God of Light will bless them, poor children. Damn demons.”

“Damn demon.” Teresa followed, with hatred in his tone, but the Pope didn’t know who the hatred was against.

“It seems that this attack has basically failed.” The Pope shook his head and walked down the steps with Teresa. “I didn’t expect that the Demon Race actually built the Demon World, and made a mistake.”

“I have lost some precious dark lines this time.” Teresa sighed, “Diamond, if I take the liberty, I think we’d better be cautious in our actions in the future.” It’s best to be cautious to no action, and let the Demon Lord and them go well. The land has annexed the mainland…Anyway, the longer the time is, the stronger the power of the demons will be.

“You are right, Teresa.” said the pope, “but those children gave their lives for their faith. They died well, so you don’t have to mind, you need to bless them.”

Teresa: “…oh.”

OK. as long as you are happy.

“However, despite this, some of the effects caused by our previous actions are indelible. We can try this tactic more in the future. For example, next time, we can…” The pope looked at the sunset in the sky with a compassionate expression.

Teresa’s expression changed, and finally lowered her head.

03.

The voice of the people regarding the suspected tour group has basically subsided. Many people have written to the magazine, hoping that His Majesty Greenward can publicly express his views on this matter. This kind of petition has become more and more voices, and it has become a mainstream voice for a while. Everyone is curious and expecting Hill to stand up.

Even Theodore ran over and asked twice.

In the end, Hill wrote this paragraph in the opening line of the next issue of “Makai Magazine”:

“I knew about this a long time ago. It’s not that simple behind it. There are other forces contributing to the flames, and similar remarks and even rumors will probably appear frequently afterwards. The reason why I didn’t respond was that I didn’t bother to respond. Use all kinds of methods to suppress the demon clan and slander the demon world, but we don’t need to say anything at all. It is enough to just show the real demon world to slap them in the face. Back then, the church said how cruel the demon king, how ugly the demon clan, and how terrible the demon world is. You have also seen what we really are. So I didn’t take any measures. I just implemented the previous plans step by step. I don’t think you need to pay attention to these things. Let’s watch “Iron Man 2″. , Will be released soon.”

There are no sharp words, no passionate words to confuse people, such a few words, but they are domineering and inspiring.

…In fact, these seemingly “uncontested” sentences are quite level in them.

The rumors about the demons are directly compared with the current demons to demonstrate, and at the same time, they have laid a psychological foundation for the public not to believe when they encounter similar theories in the future.

Of course Hill understood that since the church had been rectified once, it would have to be rectified a second and third time. The Pope is not a vegetarian (three-fold meaning), he can appreciate the benefits of this kind of public opinion attack. The pope’s behavior nowadays, one is that he himself has studied this aspect, he can become the pope, he naturally has a set of controlling the human heart, there is no accident in this world; the second is through the study of the behavior pattern of the demons, also Just learned the demons.

“The rumors stop at the wise. I believe everyone is wise.”

Finally, Hill said this at the end of the foreword.

The effect of this is a bit like “The Emperor’s New Clothes”. “You don’t believe in the demons” means that you are not a “wise person”, because a “wise person” is able to “distinguish right from wrong”, and under the general environment , I believe that Mozu is correct. Hill has worked so hard to build it for so long. Behind him stands the entire earth, with a pope, a church, and a thousand-year heritage…How can you compare with him?

“Everyone, ministers, city lord, famous people, officials, everyone, all give them enough money to open a bargaining chip that they can’t refuse.”

There are thin snowflakes floating in the sky. The snowflakes are so small that they melt immediately when they fall on the body. This makes the snow as soft as a drizzle in spring. Hill sat in the carriage and said to Macmillan Warren outside.

Macmillan, who had just returned from the Fussen Empire, hesitated and said, “But my lord, you may not know that now the Church of Illumination is rigorously investigating various matters related to the demons. Many people in Fussen have already suffered. Implicated.”

“Of course I know this, so all I ask you to do is to give them money.” Hill said in a kind tone, “You don’t need them to do anything, you just need to give them money and things. .”

Macmillan Wallen used to be a trainee magician in the Füssen Empire. When he came to the Magnolia Empire to study at the time, he was completely bewitched by the culture of the Demon World. Then Theodore made him a great merchant between the Füssen Empire and the Magnolia Empire. , Specializing in the sale of Mozu products. Macmillan did a very low-key approach, so he escaped by chance during the thorough investigation of the Illuminati Church a while ago, but some of his clients paid a heavy price for it. Now, under the impetus of the Church of Light, Macmillan has suddenly turned from a human who leans towards the demon world to a human being who has turned to the demon race. On the one hand, it is because of his conscience and on the other hand for his own survival.

Macmillan was not a fool. He understood some of Hill’s intentions after thinking about it. Although the temperature is still cold, he feels sweat oozes from his back: “But sir, some people may not be Moved by gold coins.”

“Everyone has a bargaining chip, even the king is no exception.” Hill’s voice calmly uttered terrible rebellious words, “You go investigate, do, do what they can’t refuse. And I will open it. A bargaining chip that you can’t refuse.”

Macmillan was taken aback for a moment: “What…”

Hill snapped his fingers, and a fire flew out from the carriage, quietly falling into the wind lantern in Macmillan’s hand, and then the voice sounded: “I’m glad to meet you for the first time. I am Owen, the fire element wizard.”

Macmillan blurted out: “Can I have my own chef in the future?!”

When he said this, Hill was also speechless for a few seconds. After a few seconds, Hill said: “…If you want him to cook, it would be fine, but I think that the first reaction of a qualified magician It is the fire elemental spirit who will lead you into the realm of the Great Magister.”

Macmillan: “Uh.”

Macmillan ashamed: “Sorry, sir, I’m a bit too…”

“…Forget it, it’s a double happiness.” Hill shook his head helplessly, and then he lowered the curtain, “Okay, so be it. You have shown your value, but I hope you will go further and improve. Show your own value more.”

“Yes, my lord.” Macmillan saluted the carriage, and the flames in the lantern in his hand stopped swaying.

04.

Milheim.

The bell of the Bright Cathedral rang for the last time, vigorously and loudly, shaking the air, and gradually spread throughout the entire Wintery City.

The Dark Pope Monroe and Ice Emperor Claude stood side by side in front of the Church of Light. Ice Emperor Claude hesitated a little: “Do you really want to do this?”

“You don’t have to do that.” Monroe said.

Ice Emperor Claude thought in his heart that the Dark Pope was quite talkative, and then he heard Monroe continue to say: “But I might secretly laugh at you and retreat.”

Claude: “…” This is the same type as him!

“But don’t worry, Your Majesty, I won’t say it out loud.” Monroe continued.

The expression on Ice Emperor Claude’s face became even more depressed: “Forget it…” He waved his hand and his expression became serious: “Set fire.”

The soldiers next to him got the order, and a team took the torch and walked in. Various combustibles had been poured inside. As the torch was thrown into the church, Claude closed his eyes.

The flame spread very quickly, the wood beeped, the pillars fell, and the carved glass was smoked black.

“Am I blasphemy?” Claude asked softly.

“If one of us blasphemes the spirit, it’s me and not you.” Monroe said.

Claude didn’t know that Monroe was talking about sorrow, so he sighed slightly. His mood was a bit heavy. He thought maybe he would breathe a sigh of relief after today. After that, there is no bright church on his head. , But what he felt was still heavy now, after all, the Church of Illumination had been pressed on Milheim for too many years, so the mentality was a little bit overwhelming for a while.

Monroe did not look at the church anymore, but looked at the sky in the distance. His voice was still the usual chatting tone. He was different from Hill. Hill had always spoken idle, but his tone was serious. “To be precise, it is not blasphemy, but don’t let the gods continue to blaspheme mankind.”

Claude stared at Monroe in a daze, but Monroe tidied his appearance: “I will go back first, Your Majesty.”

“Yeah.” Claude nodded and said involuntarily: “Under the crown, you used to be…”

“Since the investigation has been conducted, there is no need for special verification.” Monroe interrupted him.

Claude was silent for a few seconds before bowing: “You have worked hard.”

“At least I’m fine now.” Monroe seemed to smile, and then said: “At least I watch it collapse now.”

The setting sun is like blood, and the clouds in the sky are messy and broken. They are all dyed into different shades of red by the setting sun. There are golden splashes on it. The whole sky is mixed with all kinds of dazzling colors. Wrapped diagonally in bright red, like a group of beautiful dreams shattered by the gale and spread out on the sky. The birds in the distance are like black raindrops, falling into the sky. Everything is amazingly beautiful.

When Monroe turned and left, the Cathedral of Light behind him collapsed.

“Iron Man 2” will be released tomorrow.
