Chapter 422 - Demigod

Chapter 422: Demigod

Ludwig also understood that what he was doing was an extremely difficult and arduous task.

That was why he had come in secret…

And then announced it in a high-profile manner!

“Your Excellency General!” Ludwig looked at the watch on his wrist. He knew that the time was up, so he chuckled, “The spokesperson of our Ministry of Foreign Affairs should have held a press conference by now!”

Zhang Hui’s expression changed drastically.

He quickly turned on his communication device and switched to the Land of Qin channel.

He heard the Federal Empire’s transcendent being in the Land of Qin in the channel, urgently calling the metropolitan territory.

“The Poles have held a press conference… announcing that they are sending the Lithuanian Prince to our country to marry the eldest princess!”

“What do they want?”

“B*stards! B*stards!”

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs was in a mess.

In the communication, Zhang Hui even heard the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, Chen Qianli, bellowing, “Do these barbarians understand diplomatic etiquette?!”

According to normal diplomatic etiquette and procedures, it was generally acknowledged that the handling of important affairs between major powers should be a private contact, followed by negotiations and finally sent a delegation to communicate.

After confirming that there were no mistakes, they would make an announcement.

The Polish Kingdom’s actions were a blatant violation of the diplomatic norms of the great powers that had been agreed upon in the New Black Horse Peace Treaty around 200 years ago.

In the diplomatic field, Poland’s actions were practically equivalent to carving the words ‘I’m shameless’ on their forehead!

Zhang Hui turned off the communication device and his expression instantly became extremely cold.

However, Ludwig chuckled. His eyes, hidden behind the iron armor, flashed with a mocking expression.

He picked up a wine glass and gently raised it, “I am a barbarian!”

The Lithuanian Prince’s voice echoed in the cabin.

Zhang Hui’s killing intent immediately boiled. The sword in his hand was faintly discernible.

Zhang Hui naturally understood Ludwig’s meaning.

I am a barbarian!

The famous words of the King Chuzhuang!

These were the words that the Chu State said during the Spring and Autumn period when it brazenly broke the international rules at that time.

I am a barbarian!

I am a barbarian and I don’t need to abide by your lousy rules!

I can do whatever I want!

Moreover, there was another layer of interpretation to these words.

Although the Chu family had three households, Qin would definitely be eliminated!

And Qin was the source of the unification and the county system!

Now, who was Qin? Did he still need to guess?

“Your Highness!” Zhang Hui sneered, “Do you know how our country dealt with the barbarians in ancient times?”

“Ploughing the court and sweeping the acupoints, exterminating all evil!”

He wanted to be the current King of Chu?

Hehe!

He also wanted to exterminate Qin?

Clang!

The Magic Sword was unsheathed!

After the battle with the feathered fox, the dormant Yama sword was unsheathed once again!

On the blade of the sword, a rune lit up.

Lin, Bing, Dou and Zhe are array in front!

Between the runes, there were spots of bright blood, still bright!

Those blood stains were the enemy’s blood that this magic sword had once been stained with.

When Ludwig saw this magic sword, his heart was also shocked.

He sensed death!

He understood that if he said anything wrong next, death would immediately descend!

Even if he was a transcendent being!

Even if he had the protection of the Church of Bone and Beelzebub’s protection.

But in front of this terrifying eastern powerhouse, he would definitely die!

The King of Angels could not save him!

But…

Ludwig laughed in the metal armor.

He asked the general opposite him.

“You can certainly kill me!”

“But… how will your country explain to the world after killing me?”

After the New Black Horse Peace Treaty, Land of Qin was defeated.

What followed wasn’t peace.

It was an omnipresent attack!

The transcendents of Land of Qin tried their best to attack the easterners who were alone.

Vampires, werewolves, witches, mermaids, Naga, abominations, Frost Giants, Cyclops…

Foreign species lurked everywhere.

Death and terror followed like shadows.

The Blackguard and the Empire’s army were exhausted from running for their lives.

The Sacred Alliance, the Dark Council, the Order of the Temple, the Freemasonry…

They were all created to attack the east.

True peace was only established after the birth of nuclear weapons and the launch of space-based weapons systems.

Of course…

More importantly, the Federal Empire had influenced Land of Qin through culture and public opinion.

From the beginning to the end, the Empire insisted on the equality of all countries regardless of their size.

Under the banner of benevolence, justice, and morality, and through the narrative based on Eastern culture, the enmity of the Land of Qin was gradually smoothed out.

Otherwise, why would the people fear death if they were not afraid of it?

Facing those extraordinary humans and foreign species who did not have a national entity, no matter how many nuclear and space-based weapons the Federal Empire had, what could they do?

Could they bombard the city with nuclear weapons?

Throw tungsten rods at the civilian gathering areas from orbit?

How was that different from a beast?

Weapons were lethal weapons. A saint had no choice but to do so.

However…

Zhang Hui’s killing intent was even more vigorous.

“I’ll kill Your Highness!” Zhang Hui said calmly.,”Then, I’ll go to the Supreme Court and surrender myself…”

“What can Your Highness do?”

Ludwig laughed, “Your country can’t even tolerate a gentleman who admires your princess…”

“How are you going to convince the Land of Qin that your country will show mercy in the coming new era?”

“Mythical grade invasion…” Ludwig said calmly, “Mythical grade coverage!”

“If I sacrifice myself, I can wake up the entire Land of Qin, even Kunlun State, Nanyang, India…”

“Then my sacrifice will be great!”

“I will become a Saint!”

“My name will be called ‘saint’!”

“Saint Ludwig!” He laughed, extremely impudent!

This was where his confidence laid!

It had been more than two hundred years since the recovery of spirit aura. The recovery of spirit aura in these two hundred years was enough for all countries to have a clear and deep understanding of the recovery of spirit aura.

The recovery of spirit aura brought two problems.

The first was the mythical grade invasion known to all extraordinary humans!

The ancient mythical grade era returned from the ancient times and invaded the human world.

Those ancient gGds gradually woke up from their slumber.

But…

The other effect was that there were very few people who knew about it.

Mythical grade coverage!

Land of Qin was the best example!

Land of Qin in the North was usurped by Odin’s divine system in a few decades.

The faith of the Lord had been wiped out!

Greek land, Aegean Sea, the return of the ancient Olympian Gods.

Athena, Apollo…

These Gods had firmly encircled their own territory and were constantly infiltrating the surroundings.

This fully explained the nature of the mythical grade.

There was no you.

It was either one or the other!

And this was related to civilization and faith!

Civilization and faith were higher than life and death!

And some of the more ancient myths and ancient Gods were quietly telling another essence covered by the mythical grade.

In this competition, once you lose, it won’t be as simple as the collapse of a country.

It was more likely that it would be exterminated!

Therefore, Ludwig was very certain!

He was certain that this country wouldn’t dare to risk the world’s heresy and attack him!

In fact, they would not even dare to expel him because that meant that the eastern empire would become the target of public criticism!

From Land of Qin to Kunlun state…

From India to the Aegean Sea…

No matter what kind of faith or culture, they would all unite in the face of a life-and-death crisis!

They would defend against strong enemies and threats together!

And so, the collaboration was completed!

And it would break the two-hundred-year-old alliance of the easterners in one fell swoop!

Holding his sword, Zhang Hui’s killing intent did not abate.

But in his heart, he knew that Ludwig could not die in the Empire’s territory!

Otherwise, it would be like yellow mud falling from the crotch, no matter how hard he tried to explain it!

“What on earth do you want to do?” Zhang Hui stared at Ludwig.

…

Ling Ping’an was waiting for his aunt at the bus stop by the street.

He was holding his cat and scrolling through his phone.

Suddenly, a news pop-up window appeared.

“Eh?” He was surprised, “The Polish royal family is asking for our hand in marriage?”

“They want to marry the eldest Princess Rouan?!”

“Where is Poland?” He asked with a blank expression.

Most of the citizens of the Federation didn’t know much about foreign countries!

Generally speaking, the people of the federation, regarding foreign countries, only knew about Fusang, Xinluo, Cochin and so on.

It was too much. There was also Fran, Francois and other countries that had fought or interacted with the Empire in history.

As for the others?

There was really nothing they could do to help.

According to the investigation, at least 70% of the people of the federation were unable to accurately name more than four foreign capitals.

Ling Ping’an was one of them.

There was nothing they could do!

The Federal Empire was too huge!

The geography textbooks of the people of the federation did not even have enough space to describe their own territories.

What other places were left for the foreign countries?

Furthermore, the people of the federation treated the foreign countries the same way Ling Ping’an did – face blindness.

Most people could not tell the difference between the people of Land of Qin.

Those who could tell the difference were either diplomats or people in foreign trade.

“Poland?” Behind Ling Ping’an, Chu Weiwei exclaimed, “The Poles are asking to marry the eldest Princess Rouan?!”

“How dare they!”

“They are provoking our country!”

Hu Nuonuo nodded, “Yes!”

However, she could not figure out which country was Poland?

Therefore, she asked, “Where is the Kingdom of Poland?”

Hu Nuonuo knew a little, so she explained, “Poland is the Land of Qin in the East!”

“Two hundred years ago, the Faran Emperor single-handedly supported the puppet country…”

“After Frederick the Great, the economy and society of the Kingdom of Poland continued to develop and the strength of the country increased greatly… through marriage with Habsburg, Lithuania, Prussia, Bavaria and other countries in the Land of Qin, they merged and grew into the largest country in the Land of Qin in the East!”

“With their economic and military influence, they obtained the identity of the emperor-elect of the Holy Roman Empire!”

“The previous Polish King even cleared the last legal obstacle to the Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire through marriage with the Duke of Burgundy of Faran!”

“As long as they march into Vienna, they can be crowned as the Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire!”

“So powerful!” Ling Ping’an listened and clicked his tongue in wonder, as if he had heard of a book.

“What’s so powerful about it!” Chu Weiwei shook her head, “Young Master Ling, you don’t know…”

“The history of the rise of the Poles…”

She shook her head, “It’s a history of shamelessness!”

“In order to restore the country, the Poles personally sent a countess of their own country to the bed of the Faran Emperor… In exchange, they gave the Farans a chance to be dogs!”

“After the Emperor died, they immediately fell out with him…”

“When Frederick the Great tried to curry favor with Prussia…”

“They betrayed Faran and caused the Emperor’s successor to lose miserably!”

“After Prussia declined, they immediately abandoned Prussia and became friendly with Faran again, repeating the same trick…”

“The Faran King imprisoned the Pope and replayed the incident of Avignon. The Polish winged cavalry was the Vanguard!”

“In short…” Chu Weiwei said disdainfully, “Poland is the representative of the Land of Qin!”

“A famous fence-sitter!”

When Ling Ping’an heard this, he laughed, “Miss Chu, isn’t this very normal for the country?”

“When you’re weak, you have to be a grandson and know how to cling to a thigh…”

“Otherwise…”

Chu Weiwei was stunned, “Young master is right… It’s just that… you don’t know…”

“In the Land of Qin, Poland is currently the most hostile to our country!”

Ling Ping’an was curious, “Why?”

“They are more than ten thousand miles away from our country?”

“And we have never interfered in other countries’ internal affairs…”

Chu Weiwei shook her head, “I don’t know…”

This was the truth!

Her level was too low, so she was unable to know the inside story of those high-ranking officials.

But…

As the first lieutenant of the Blackguard, she was actually a major.

In the nightmare world, Chu Weiwei had met many players from Land of Qin.

Among them, there were many from Poland.

And those people, after discovering that she was an extraordinary person from the Federal Empire, all of them showed intense hostility!

Chu Weiwei felt that…

The Federal Empire seemed to have done something bad to Poland.

But the problem was…

During the hundred-year war, Poland had already been divided up by the powerful forces of the Land of Qin.

It was not until long after the war that the Faran Emperor reappeared.

Then came the long era of peace.

Chu Weiwei racked her brains, but she could not figure out the reason.

Ling Ping’an, on the other hand, looked at the news and shook his head, “Since the Poles are hostile towards us, they are here to ask for the eldest princess in marriage…”

“Have they taken the wrong medicine?”

“Moreover, the imperial princesses of the Empire never marry out!”

In the three hundred years of the Federal Empire, since the great ancestor, there had been no records of princesses marrying out and the imperial family marrying out.

This was both a tradition and a reality of society!

The son of Heaven was the son of everyone in the world.

The princess was the daughter of everyone in the world.

How could her own daughter marry into a foreign country?

Furthermore, there was the influence of a powerful conservative faction!

The old republic and the old empire would not allow such marriage to occur in the Empire.

The actions of these people were extremely powerful!

If they were angered, it would not be a joke for them to serve the Emperor and clear the side of the Emperor, especially the Conservatives of Beizhou and Nanzhou.

They really had the ability and willingness to do these things!

…

Zhang Hui looked at the Prince of Poland in front of him.

He tried hard to suppress the killing intent in his heart.

“Your Highness…” Zhang Hui asked, “What exactly do you want to do?”

In Zhang Hui’s opinion, the Poles completely disregarded diplomatic etiquette and traditions and threw out such an issue that the Empire would not agree to. They must have other motives!

Ludwig, on the other hand, chuckled.

He took off his iron armor, revealing his excessively young face.

“I’m twenty-five years old this year!” Ludwig said, “And I’m already a Lieutenant General!”

“Your country is the number one in the world!”

“Thinking about it, there must be a genius who can surpass me!”

“Now, the heroes of the imperial capital have gathered!”

“If there is a young genius who can surpass me…”

“Then I and the entire Land of Qin will have nothing to say!”

“Otherwise, please give me a chance to pursue the Princess!”

Ludwig smiled, his golden hair fluttering in the wind.

A twenty-five-year-old lieutenant general, he indeed had enough reasons to be proud!

But…

Zhang Hui sneered, “Your Highness, please don’t deceive yourself!”

“Your demigod bloodline…”

“Who can you hide it from?”

The royal family of Poland had God’s blood!

This was a secret that the higher-ups of the Blackguard had long known.

This God’s blood came from the Church of Bone!

In fact, after the Faran Emperor, the royal families of the Land of Qin all had the God’s blood!

And the Poles walked the most extreme path.

Through continuous marriage, they continued to fuse and purify the God’s blood.

Finally, in this generation, they gave birth to three children with the bloodline of God.

Ludwig was one of them!

As a demigod, he was born to be a general!

This was also the confidence that the countries of Land of Qin had to suppress the dark races!

The royal families of each country always had the chance and probability to give birth to descendants with the bloodline of God.

Once they appeared, they could suppress the entire country!

That Prussian Emperor Frederick and Lossia’s Emperor Peter were like this!

Born as a demigod, they were extremely powerful!

“If you really want to do this…” Zhang Hui smiled, “Then the seed of the immortal God of our country will have to make a move!”

Naturally, the Federal Empire also had similar families.

After the immortal God?

Although it was precious to the Empire, it was not impossible!

However, behind these guys stood the immortal God.

The awakened immortal God!

Therefore, they were actually the targets of the Blackguard.

Ludwig laughed, “Then come!”

He gently held the heavy sword in his hand.

They were only demigods!

As long as the experts of the Blackguard did not make a move, would he be afraid?
