Chapter 466: Heavenly Light of Acknowledgement
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The white wolf had nothing to say at the moment. It had designed many plans and scenarios into goading the humans to kill its kind through its provocation, thus completely throwing off the Fellows.h.i.+p Meeting that appeared in the intelligence report…
After it received the information gathered by the Greater Rat Intelligence Department, it had hurriedly stopped its effort in infiltrating Australia 1 and rushed over to disrupt this meeting.
It was obvious that the white wolf feared this Fellows.h.i.+p Meeting deeply. Earth’s humans’ ability in strategy and resourcefulness was much more superior than the Upper Realm.
It still came back to that saying, ‘It’s not that the people of the Upper Realm were stupid, but that they are too specialized’. Most creatures were not born as all-knowing geniuses. Whoever worked hard in a specific area would see the greatest improvement.
The moment the ‘Fellows.h.i.+p Meeting’ started, there would undoubtedly be countless ignorant and cowardly little demons who, like dogs and cats, would be trained by the humans to cling onto them. In turn, they would become opponents of the demons and fight against the Demon Alliance. This was a tactic that humans often employed. It was something that they were best at!
It wanted to let itself get killed by the despicable humans in this meeting and expose the insidious nature of the humans. It wanted to become a hero of the demon race, and then ‘resurrect’ with the ident.i.ty of a hero.
Everything had been planned perfectly, except for a small miscalculation. Vigilante A, who was a ‘ruthless man of little words’, did not act out, but instead used words to refute it until it was completely speechless.
Were words useful?
To the weak, they were not useful at all. The weak could never win over the silent majority.
However, in the hands of the strong, it could multiply their strength by several times!
The silent majority would always choose the one that looked more magnificent between two equally matched in power.
That was because it would be beneficial to them as well. At the very least, they would not have to worry about siding with the more magnificent party and end up embarra.s.sing themselves in the end.
Indeed, Vigilante A was such a magnificent person!
That was why with just those words, countless little demons would definitely side with him because they knew that he would definitely protect them. As long as they lived within his sights, they would be able to live in openly under the sun!
In the world under the sun, everything was under his jurisdiction!
Moreover, this was not the online world where it could make unreasonable demands and argue for the sake of arguing. This was a battle to win over the hearts of demons!
It could deny the other party’s words to its dying breath and refuse to accept what he said. No matter what, it would never agree to his words!
A wise man once said, ‘Never expect to persuade your opponent by debating. The only ones you can truly persuade are the audience’.
This was exactly what Vigilante A was doing.
Was everything he said earlier directed towards it? Was it to persuade it?
No!
Vigilante A’s target had always been the silent majority of demons.
‘Dammit, what do I do now?!
‘How can I refute this b.a.s.t.a.r.d!
‘How do I rekindle the demons’ hatred for humans?!
‘If no demons fight, how will I become the true king of the demon race?’
It thought nervously. Then, a faint black energy appeared on its body.
Its eyes suddenly brightened, and it stopped panicking. It looked coldly at the righteous Vigilante A and swept its gaze across the prideful human leaders.
It let out a snort, but time, without saying anything, it walked straight to the exit.
At this time, a roar of laughter started behind it.
“It’s running away with its tail between its legs! It should’ve run long ago!”
“I wondered what ability this fool had, but it turns out it’s just a common fool after all!”
“What’s this called, seeking for attention 2 ?”
The white wolf gritted its teeth and endured the ridicule. It did not use any escaping arts and fly away directly. That was because all the shame and scorn it received today would be returned a hundred times in the future!
It was walking slowly out of the venue when and a voice suddenly said!
“Do come as you like and leave as you like. Excuse me, but do you have an invitation to this meeting?
“You deliberately plan and provoke conflict among diligent workers. As I said, you deserve to be punished!” Vigilante A said lightly.
“What are you planning to do? You’ve already exposed that you humans just want to exterminate the entire demon race!” The white wolf did not turn back and just shouted fiercely.
In fact, it was secretly cheering in its heart. ‘Kill me, kill me. As long as you kill this double of mine, your true colors will be exposed.’
However, at this moment, it only sensed a golden light coming from behind before a thick and heavy book hit it on its head with a ‘thud’.
“Sometimes, some self-proclaimed smart guys should become more stupid. That way, the world would have less conflict and bloodshed.” Fang Ning said lightly.
The white wolf dizzily got up from the ground.
‘Who am I? Where am I? What was I trying to do?
‘Did I lose my memory? No, no, I didn’t. I carry the fate of the Celestial Wolf Clan, an Arctic Wolf that Descended. My destiny is to become the Demon King. I want the demons and humans to go to war, and establish prestige on the battlefield. I want the entire demon race to listen to my orders in the future!
‘I have to endure. I need to endure for now and run away.
With this thought in mind, it finally ran away with its tail between its legs. That was because a voice told it that if it did not run now, it would never have the chance to become Demon King! Even its double would be unable to do it!
Fang Ning looked at its fleeing figure and recalled the precious game book, thinking silently.
‘What a shame. It’ll be enough to give it a permanent Buff that lowers its intelligence. The gaze in that cunning wolf’s eyes looked a little dangerous earlier.
‘Looks like I should continue fooling the System into upgrading my baby after it exits isolation.’
Indeed, Fang Ning made proper preparations and called back the game book for the purpose of this meeting. People were allowed to enter and leave freely in Zhi Nan’s Paradise Realm, otherwise, it would not be able to bewitch people’s hearts.
After the game book left, countless suffering and tormented devils and evildoers were finally able to extricate themselves while hovering between life and death.
“Well hit!”
“This kind of foolish garbage that only knows how to be cunning and is anxious to see the world in disorder should just become stupid!”
The crowd clamored.
“Please sit, Venerable One.” Duke Yun seized the opportunity to invite Fang Ning back.
Fang Ning was not afraid of that last look in the wolf’s eyes. It was just trying to concoct another scheme again.
‘So what? I’m seized by the ever diligent Sir System. I’ll just get stronger and stronger.’
In the past, Fang Ning might have felt guilty when facing such an insidious enemy, and be unable to sleep well. However, he no longer felt any guilt.
Rich experience had taught him that as long as one adopted measures that were appropriate to the specific situation, they would be able to triumph in every battle and win every fight!
Now that the troublemaker had been chased out, the Fellows.h.i.+p Meeting continued.
“Now, for the first agenda in our meeting. At first, we intended to discuss a way for demons and humans to get along, but as the Venerable One said earlier, we shouldn’t discriminate between demons and humans. As long as they are animals willing to trade labor for a means of subsistence, they’ll be considered humans. Humans originally evolved from primates after laboring for an endless amount of time. I believe no one would have any objections now.”
“No objections.”
“That’s right.”
The crowd said in unison.
What a joke. If they refuted now, they would be painting a target on themselves.
“In that case, there’s no such thing as methods to let demons and humans get along. We’ll treat those Post-Evolved Humans just like how we treat other humans! I hereby swear that I’ll let the demons live as humans. On this Earth, there’ll no longer be any discrimination between demons and humans!” Duke Yun said firmly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a glow of light from the sky suddenly shone on him, causing this middle-aged man to look unusually sacred and dignified.
“What’s that?”
“Heavenly Light of Acknowledgement?!” Someone said in envy and jealousy.
Looking at this, Fang Ning became thoughtful.
Suddenly, a voice spoke.
“d.a.m.n it, my Heavenly Merit was taken by that b.a.s.t.a.r.d!” Sir System, who had not shown its existence for a while, suddenly spoke.
“Hmph, I finally know how mild your definition of ‘absolute necessity’ is now…” Fang Ning said disdainfully.
“Of course. Heavenly Merit is like my pills. They’re all life-saving things. If I lose any of them, I’ll definitely set aside a thread to look after it even if I have to deal with problems every day, and travel a thousand miles every day to carry a hundred meritorious deeds per day.” The System said argumentatively.
“Fine, I know why the Heavenly Merit wasn’t given to us, so stop acting like you’ve been wronged.” Fang Ning said placatingly.
“Why?”
“Axiom Daddy won’t acknowledge big words unless you can fulfill them. As a leader, Duke Yun said today that if a doc.u.ment is released tomorrow, there’ll be hundreds of thousands and millions of people who would listen to it. It’ll affect countless people, so of course Axiom Daddy will give him Merit.”
“You’re fooling me again… It’s all because you’re a lazy *ss Host who didn’t carry out the task and make the vow first. Otherwise, the Merit Points would have fallen in my hands.” Sir System refuted with righteousness and dignity.
“Oh, I would’ve forgotten if you hadn’t reminded me. We still have a huge Milky Way Nets Above Snares Below promise that we have to complete…” Fang Ning head suddenly started to hurt.
‘Forget it. At least there’s still a couple hundred years to go. It wouldn’t be that bad if I procrastinated for a few years…’
“You wanna try making another oath?” Sir System said stubbornly.
“It’s not that much… Hurry up and upgrade. Don’t come out during the critical moment. Come out when it’s over.” Fang Ning sent the System away to save himself from another round of nagging.
“d.a.m.n it, my Merit…” The System muttered but eventually stopped. It seemed like the System Upgrade was still more important.
