Chapter 407: Bitter wine enters throat and heart aches
Appiya came out of the temple of Yao, her pale face full of distress.
She grabbed the silver wine flask hanging in her white robe and poured it down her throat.
Bitter wine enters the throat and causes pain in the heart.
The common people care about their cattle and horses, the king cares about his power, who can care about my difficulties?
Appiya looked up at the moon in the sky, feeling physically and mentally tired.
She has a heavy mission.
Lord Martyr God told her before she came.
"This is a difficult task, but only you can do it. I believe in you, go ahead, Appiya, my smart and astute daughter, I know you will not let me down."
The gods have given down the oracle, and the only thing you can do is to implement it with all your strength.
But this mission is really difficult to handle.
Lord Martyr God expressed very cryptically that he asked Appiya to remind the foreign prophet not to meddle in other people's business.
The kingdom has its own governance methods, and the Bone Ancestors also have their own racial characteristics. There is no excuse for an outsider to interfere in the local government affairs of the kingdom.
Appiya was in trouble.
If it were any other person, she would have given them a stern warning in the past, telling them to shut up and not point fingers.
The dungeons of the kingdom are spacious enough to accommodate any sinner who dares to offend the majesty of the gods.
The land in the kingdom is also very soft, making it easy to bury people anywhere.
But this prophet named Maocao had an extraordinary background.
Before going to pick her up, the God of Martyr told Appiya seriously.
"Although the person who came here is a prophet, the god behind her has a noble identity and is a powerful and secret main god... In terms of rank, that person is even above Lord Zhengshen."
The Martyr God announced in a low voice: "All you need to know is that Lord Zhengshen is cooperating with that Lord God. That Lord God paid a certain amount of attention to the civilization of the Sleepless Ones, so he sent a Civilization Supervisor to come here. To ensure further rapid development of this world.”
"If possible, get some information about that god from the prophet's mouth. Any information about the Lord God may be of extremely high value."
"Anyway, have a good relationship with her."
That's what I said before.
Now he allowed himself to tell her to mind her own business.
This is completely inconsistent.
The people of Appia were very restless, and they were even more disgusted with King Theodore.
At the beginning of the establishment of the Resurrection Kingdom, Appia strongly suggested asking the Martyr God not to let Theodore be king. Apostles represent the will of God and should not frequently intervene in worldly affairs.
But Theodore said that when the kingdom was rebuilt from the ruins, it was necessary to ensure the stability of the entire country in the early stage, and he would shoulder the responsibility to ensure the order of the kingdom.
Appiya felt that this guy just wanted to be a king.
Apostles have a lofty status, but due to their responsibilities, they are still essentially servants and attendants, always waiting for God's will.
Not so with Wang.
As a king who commands believers, he naturally enjoys royal power. It is the king's duty to command and control the world.
There is a clear boundary between gods and humans. Apostles can barely be at the bottom of the divine realm, while kings stand at the top of the secular kingdom.
In the behemoth civilization of the previous era, Theodore acted more as a punisher and law enforcer. He eliminated heretics and beliefs in strange gods, and kept the fire of belief in gods pure and strong.
When he died for the gods and the world, he was the most ruthless and decisive executioner.
After the rebirth of civilization, Theodore transformed into a monarch who defended the country.
Appiya also has to admit that he did a good job.
Theodore established the laws of the kingdom, allowing herders to focus on herding, farmers to focus on farming, craftsmen to manufacture and build, and soldiers to patrol and fight.
He promulgated a unified system of rewards and punishments, encouraged labor, punished laziness, promoted the development of culture and technology, and encouraged the people to acquire knowledge and experience...
But the biggest problem is that Theodore is too stable.
He set responsibilities for every civilian in the Resurrection Kingdom. Once the newly born ancestors were selected as herders, they would always be herders. If they were classified as farmers, they would devote themselves to farming day after day.
The skeleton clan, which was originally relatively dull, will only become more and more rigid and numb if this continues, making it harder for them to have the vitality to create.
Appiya had questioned this.
Theodore said: "As long as they can provide a continuous population to complete farming and grazing for other civilized worlds, it is enough."
"You can't ask too much from a group of low-level primitive people. They are just a group of ancestors with bones."
Appia criticized Theodore's plan for rule, but it was difficult to refute it.
Maocao said in front of King Theodore: "With all due respect, the civilization of the Sleepless Ones has a population of hundreds of thousands, but it has not been able to create any wonders, culture or specialties with the power of civilians. This makes me very sad." I am worried about whether the population growth here can be maintained and investment income can be brought to Lord Yaoshen.”
Being questioned in person made Theodore's face turn red: "Prophet! I am the king here. Although you are a civilized supervisor, you only have the right to make suggestions. Please do not interfere in the internal affairs of the kingdom!"
"It is related to the interests of Lord Yao Shen. I doubt that with the current system and management method of the Resurrection Kingdom, can it really achieve the stable development of civilization and further increase the population? I would also like to ask His Majesty the King to give a positive answer."
Theodore was silent.
Catwoman Prophet said: "In the two years since I came here, I have investigated the current situation of the kingdom in detail. If there is anything wrong in what I said below, please point it out."
"Herdsmen are not protected by soldiers when grazing, and are often attacked and plundered by groups of wild beasts and even extraordinary creatures. Cattle, sheep, and chickens are prone to illness due to the decay and expansion of the spectacle [Bone Graveyard]. New Sheep pens, cattle pens and chicken farms have not yet been built.”
"Farmers only grow sweet potatoes and small wild vegetables. Insect and rodent infestations are becoming more and more serious, causing a large number of seedlings to be damaged and harvests to continue to decline. Grain production is barely maintained by expanding cultivated land, which may trigger a food crisis at any time."
"The skeleton craftsmen only know basic carpentry and masonry, and they can pile up simple houses and fences. They are not able to complete even a complete water canal independently, and they are simply unable to support the further operation of the agricultural system. Mining, smelting, and casting are not in progress, and the craftsmen Relying only on instinctive skeletal assembly and connection.”
"As for soldiers, officers do not have basic command capabilities, and soldiers lack unified training and organization. As far as I know, sometimes a small team of soldiers cannot even defeat a wolf pack, and the battle loss rate is extremely high."
"The above are the most basic questions."
Maocao said calmly: "Your Majesty the King, how are you going to solve these major hidden dangers? Then I can report it to the gods afterwards."
The words made Theodore look ugly.
He gritted his teeth and said: "My resurrection kingdom has its own national conditions! These problems cannot be solved in a moment! Prophet, you don't know that the specific situation is complicated. With the trade pressure of the Twin Snakes Empire, it is really impossible to spare manpower..."
Appiya also spoke out to be a peacemaker: "Prophet, His Majesty the King is also working hard to govern the country. You also know that the Bone Ancestors themselves are a dull race, and their advantage lies in stability and order... These must be done slowly, and there is no rush. ”
Maocao closed her eyes and took two deep breaths, then she bowed slightly: "Please forgive me for being rude just now. I was in a hurry, and I also know that many development problems cannot be solved overnight. I was rude."
She stopped as soon as she saw fit, which made Appiya feel a little relieved.
"I heard from the herdsmen that they are short of a skeleton dog. If there is a skeleton dog, their grazing will be safer. If His Majesty the King can grant them this convenience, they will definitely be grateful. If such a small problem can be solved, I I believe it will be a good start.”
Theodore understood Maocao's hint: "I have been thinking about this. I will check the kingdom's inventory later and the problems will be solved one by one."
As a result, the two sides became tense, and finally ended with the herdsmen obtaining the skeleton dogs.
Mao Cao does not frequently interfere in internal affairs. The suggestions and opinions she puts forward are all based on solid research.
Just being brought up like this by an outsider made Theodore, the king, embarrassed.
He couldn't do anything with the cat grass, so he went to the God of Death to complain.
Then the god of death asked Appiya to deal with this problem, euphemistically saying that those who can do more work.
Appiya also gradually realized the power of the prophet Maocao.
The god Yao, hidden above Maocao's head, is like a huge black shadow that cannot be seen, shrouding the sky above this world.
No one knows whether He is watching all this.
Its mere existence made Lord Martyr stay hidden for a long time, and he did not even dare to call God Yao by his name, which even made Appia feel a heavy sense of oppression.
Perhaps, this is the power of the Lord God.
Appiya thought about it but couldn't find a solution. However, with constant contact, she gradually became familiar with Maocao - she is a firm and smart prophet, not a single-minded fanatic.
Soon after, the Twin Snakes Empire, the dominant civilization, sent a caravan. According to tradition, the caravan will receive the livestock and food here, and the corpses will be exchanged for equal value.
The apostle Boone who led the caravan only left half of the corpses behind because of the quality of the livestock and food, which made Theodore cursed in anger.
"This is too much! This bastard relies on his back to dominate civilization and dominates! What the hell!"
Maocao saw all this and comforted her: "Your Majesty, the other party is so rude, it is really outrageous. Only when the kingdom becomes stronger can it gain the favor of the gods and no longer be coerced."
At least externally, Maocao is on the side of the sleepless civilization.
She said: "I suggest that since you can't get enough supplies of corpses from the empire, it's better to support yourself within the kingdom."
Theodore frowned: "What do you mean?"
"Form an army, defeat extraordinary monsters and beasts, excavate the bones of underground giant beast civilization, and expand the scale of breeding."
Maocao suggested: "Three paths go hand in hand, and there will definitely be an increase in corpses in a short time. At the same time, this is also a great opportunity to stimulate the intelligence and awakening abilities of the Bone Ancestors."
Appiya sided with Maocao this time.
After thinking about it repeatedly, Theodore said he would think about it again.
It wasn't until the next year that, after being bossed and reprimanded in person by Boon again, Theodore returned to the palace with a gloomy face and pulled out his sword: "Crunt, crusade! Monsters that are not recognized by the kingdom are prohibited from existing in the kingdom!"
"There's no body, let's find it ourselves!"
"On the ground and underground, I want to see our skeleton soldiers everywhere! I want the whole world to fly the flag of the kingdom!"
Theodore's face was full of murderous intent, as if he had returned to the killer he used to be.
Appia looked at Maocao, who was applauding and nodding, and then at Theodore, who had firm eyes.
She felt a little weird.
Why did everyone become a group?
Also, does this count as completing my mission?
