996 Faith: Eternal Peace! (2)
Zhou Zhou ignored the confused and excited Yuan Cong. “He” stood up and looked at everyone. “What Yuan Cong said just now does make sense.”
“However, what This King wants to tell you is that don’t believe me.”
Everyone was stunned.
Don’t believe “Him”?
However, Yuan Cong’s words clearly sounded very reasonable.
Zhou Zhou scanned the crowd and saw the change in their expressions.
“He” said lightly:
“I feel that treating war as a game and life and death as nothing is in itself an incomparable power!”
“In the novels I read in my previous life, there was a soldier type called the ‘Fourth Calamity’. It was so terrifying that it was difficult to find an opponent in the myriad worlds.”
“This King feels that you guys are a little like the Fourth Calamity now.”
“Let me ask you, what’s wrong with being strong!?”
“What is wrong?”
“Just because other Lords can’t resurrect soldiers and they feel the pain of war, do we have to learn from ‘Them’, give up on resurrection methods and risk our lives?”
“Isn’t that stupid?!”
Zhou Zhou cursed, “How far do you think this f*cking thought can go? Kick it away as far as you can!”
“Besides, Yuan Cong, what nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean by if I’m not around one day? Will my soldiers become weak chickens who can’t accept the cruelty of war?”
“Why would This King no longer be around?”
“Let’s put aside the truth and talk, right? What’s wrong with you?”
This was the first time Zhou Zhou had scolded his subordinates so brazenly in public.
However, not only did everyone not feel repulsed, their eyes lit up as they looked at Zhou Zhou.
His Majesty was right!
Why!? Since he had the ability to revive, would he need to feel the pain of losing his family and friends?
His Majesty is so powerful. How can he be gone just like that?
The Fourth Disaster? We like that name!
Zhou Zhou snorted coldly and said.
“Moreover, even if I’m no longer around, you’re not ordinary life forms. With your current strength, you can still live whatever life you want, right? Who can bully you other than a very small number of God Spirits?”
“Yuan Cong!” Zhou Zhou gazed at Yuan Cong.
“I’m here.” Yuan Cong said in a panic.
“Do you know what you did wrong?” Zhou Zhou asked calmly.
“I was wrong to confuse Your Majesty’s soldiers with the soldiers of the other races.” Yuan Cong said honestly.
“At least you have some comprehension.” Zhou Zhou said coldly, “Your war thinking is still the same as before. It’s only suitable for conventional wars and conventional soldier types.”
“You’re not used to at least 80% of my army.”
“How can the army of tigers and wolves under my command be compared to the soldiers of the people of foreign races who can be shattered with a single touch and don’t even dare to fight to the death?”
“This King will now punish you by lowering your military rank to the level of an common soldier of the Blazing Sun Army. I will also punish you with one billion military merits. When you die ten times in battle and make up for your military merits, you can come back and restore your military rank.”
No one dared to speak anymore as soon as these words were spoken. They were all secretly clicking their tongues.
What a harsh punishment!
This punishment almost wiped out all the previous merits of the Yuan Cong, allowing it to return to the beginning.
Moreover, the pain of dying 10 times in battle was not easy to bear.
Even though the soldiers under Zhou Zhou were not afraid of death when fighting, nine out of 10 soldiers would not be willing to die for no reason unless His Majesty himself gave the order.
It was true death after all. One had to experience the entire process of death.
That process… no matter how many times the soldiers had experienced it, they could not hide it.
“Thank you, Your Majesty. I accept my punishment.” Yuan Cong’s face turned pale, but he still accepted obediently.
“He” knew that this was His Majesty’s most merciful punishment.
Otherwise, with the words “He” had said to contradict Zhou Zhou before the battle, even if “He” had good intentions, “He” would have offended “His” prestige as His Majesty in front of everyone. With just this, “He” could be killed without hesitation.
Zhou Zhou nodded and walked up to the generals and gods.
“What do you think of the domestic environment of our Subjects in the Blazing Sun Kingdom?”
“He” suddenly asked.
“A dreamy place of peace.”
“It’s hard to find a place like the Blazing Sun Kingdom where the Subjects can live in peace and happiness.”
“People are very happy to be able to eat their fill, live safely, have hope and hope for the future.”
“In the words of His Majesty’s hometown, it’s like a paradise.”
“It’s the epitome of Peaceful Times!”
…
The generals and God Spirits were not stingy with their praises at this moment.
Even Yuan Cong said, “I’ve seen countless Lord factions, but I still feel that His Majesty’s territory is the most peaceful I’ve ever seen. The most blissful territory where Subjects live is simply not like the Lord factions that exist in the high continent.”
Zhou Zhou nodded and gazed at the soldiers. He said slowly, “This is the answer I gave you.”
“I don’t care how the other Lord factions define war.”
“However, the goal of war is eternal peace in the eyes of this King.”
“Soldiers and God Spirits, you must have seen too much war.”
“Are you willing to work with me to end this endless war of ten thousand races and create a true eternal peace!”
Zhou Zhou gazed at his subordinates and suddenly said loudly.
“We are willing!”
The soldiers and God Spirits knelt on the ground and shouted as they gazed at Zhou Zhou with fanatical expressions.
Their bodies suddenly emitted a faint nine-colored Lord’s nomological light.
At this moment, the nearly 300 soldiers and God Spirits had all become Zhou Zhou’s Holy Spirit-Tier Believers!
Zhou Zhou sensed the sudden surge in power of faith from his subordinates and nodded slightly.
“Carol Moeli.” Zhou Zhou gazed at her.
“Your Majesty, I’m here!” Carol Moeli said respectfully.
“Conclude what I just said into an article and send it to all the citizens of the Blazing Sun Kingdom.”
“Especially the soldiers. We have to focus on publicity.”
“Let them know that ‘They’ are not only fighting for This King and the Blazing Sun Kingdom, they are also fighting for themselves, for the home behind them, and for eternal peace!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
“I will definitely complete the mission given to me by Your Majesty!” Carol Moeli said solemnly.
Zhou Zhou acknowledged.
From today onwards, the soldiers under “Him” would become a group of soldiers with faith!
Faith!
In fact, sometimes, it was even more terrifying than pure strength and willpower that was not afraid of death!
This kind of faith did not only refer to belief in the God Spirit, but also a certain belief, thought, pursuit of things, dreams, and so on. It could be called faith.
With faith in the pursuit of eternal peace, even if they lost the ability to resurrect in the future, they could still fight on the battlefield without fear of death, and their daily lives would be filled with motivation to improve.
This was something that pure strength could not provide.
Furthermore, only “Him” and his group of soldiers and God Spirits who were fearless of death and had faith in them could escape the vengefulness of death caused by the war.
Only such subordinates would be able to adhere to the purest dream of peace in this supreme continent where grudges were endless. They would be able to end this eternal war and create an eternal peace that could truly be called a miracle.
This was also where Zhou Zhou’s true confidence lay.
“My subordinates, eliminate the Fire Cry Race who are unwilling to surrender for eternal peace.”
“I will gather the True God-Tiers to fight together with you.”
“Try to take down the Crimson Fire Domain before sunrise tomorrow and exterminate all the Fire Cry clansmen who don’t listen to advice.”
Zhou Zhou ordered calmly.
“Yes, Your Majesty!”
The subordinates said respectfully.
