Sui Xiong sat in the holy temple of the Void Mask Church with a gloomy face, sighing deeply.

“It failed...”

Wall’s figure appeared in front of him, asking doubtfully, “What has failed, Your Majesty?”

“I tried to persuade the orcs to stop fighting and failed.”

Wall thought about it for a whole, and said, “It’s weird if you’ve succeed. The orcs are in the upper hand now.”

“So I went to talk with the God of Knights again, wondering if I could persuade the Human God System to do something to put pressure on the Orc gods so as to prevent the orcs from organizing a systematic Replacement Program in the occupied areas.”

Wall nodded, “That’s a good idea. The Human gods must have agreed with that.”

Sui Xiong sighed deeply, “They didn’t.”

“... What are the Human gods thinking? Why do they disagree with that?” Asked Wall.

“How am I supposed to know!” Sui Xiong heaved a deep sigh and felt that there was a huge generation gap between his thought and that of the Human gods, especially the God of Light.

“But Your Majesty has done your best. There is no other way.” Wall comforted him, “Let’s manage our own area well. If it really doesn’t work, ask Leon to evacuate the people from the Eagle Kingdom to our area.”

Sui Xiong was surprised at that. He thought carefully and agreed that it seemed to be quite reliable.

God helps those who help themselves. It would be better to protect people in Eagle Kingdom by their own hands than to expect the orcs to stop their aggression, or to depend on the God of Light and the Human Gods to negotiate with the Orc gods.

However...He thought about it carefully and was worried again.

The Void Mask Land certainly couldn’t hold so many people–There were not enough houses and shelters, but a larger shortage of food. Even the transport capacity of the Portal was much less than enough.

It was impossible to protect the people from Eagle Kingdom here.

He talked about the problems he had thought about. Wall pondered for a while and sighed as if the plan was unlikely to be realized.

“Your Majesty, I think we’d better save some people properly.” He said, “After careful thinking, I realize that perhaps many people will never leave their homeland–After all, they will not die even if they are caught by the orcs.”

Sui Xiong was silent for a while and said, “Can’t they see the orcs’ plot?”

“Maybe they can, but what will be different? They do not have the power to resist it. It’s good enough for them to keep away from slaughter.”

Sui Xiong frowned and remained silent.

At this moment, a faint light fell outside the temple, and a figure that couldn’t be seen by mortals appeared at the door of the holy temple, greeting this side politely.

“Is Your Majesty Void Mask at home? I’m Toplia, God of Diplomacy from the Human God System. I’m here to make a big deal today.”

Sui Xiong hesitated for a moment and asked Wall to invite him in.

The God of Diplomacy was a very handsome young man with a brilliant smile. Especially his two front teeth seemed shining. He came in with a smile, saluted with a smile, and then presented two small gifts, with a smile. These gifts, though not very valuable, were quite exquisite. And the God of Diplomacy himself was more like a movie star or a sunshine man than a god.

“Well...” Sui Xiong thought for a while, remembered the nickname of the Diplomatic God, and said with a smile, “Your Majesty the Smiling Diplomat, I have received your kindness. But... What’s the big deal you’ve mentioned?”

The God of Diplomacy sat in the air with a smile. He first took out a light ring and moved it from left to right. It sent out an invisible barrier, which was not strong but powerful, to cut off all the peeping around them. Then he said, “Please allow me to ask you first, Your Majesty the Great Educator. When you were a mortal before, were you in the name of Wall, a nickname ‘Black Blade’, and did you live close to the Holy Fire City of Kingdom of Holy Angels?

Wall was surprised first and nodded.

“That’s right. Please allow me to ask you again... I have to apologize first, because the following topic is somewhat offensive.” The God of Diplomacy said, “Do you still hate the Sun God who called on believers to seize all dark creatures and burn them to death?”

Wall opened his eyes wide and sent out an intention of killing immediately.

“What do you mean by that?” He was somewhat angry and asked with great dissatisfaction.

“It seems that you still hate him. Then it will be easier.” The God of Diplomacy laughed, “Our Majesty, the great and far-sighted and invincible God of Light, has decided to launch an attack on the Sun God and his servile followers recently. Would you like to join us in this battle?”

Wall couldn’t help standing up and cried out, “Really?”

“Of course.” The God of Diplomacy said, “The Sun God and his servile followers have suppressed the people of the Kingdom of Holy Angels and controlled the development of almost all the other beliefs beside his own church. His Majesty God of Light has always resented things like that–He believes that human beings are free and have the right to freely choose which God to believe in on the premise of respecting His Majesty. As long as it is not an evil and dangerous existence that will bring disaster to the world, people can believe in whatever they want.”

He turned to Sui Xiong and said, “Your Majesty Void Mask, I think if it were you, you would understand that, right?”

Sui Xiong nodded slightly to show his agreement.

Although the Lord of Light and the God of Knights had different style in many ways, he deserved to be a student of the God of Knights, and his attitude towards belief was still desirable.

“In fact, most countries and regions in the world are the same. For example, the Commonwealth of Mifata does not require its people to believe in the Master of Mystery, nor does Federation of Gold Coins require people to believe in the Goddess of Wealth. They only take advantage of their dominant position to expand the influence of their beliefs. I think it is reasonable, natural and correct. Do you agree with me?”

Sui Xiong nodded repeatedly. He always supported freedom of belief. Although his understanding of freedom of belief was more thoroughly than what the God of Diplomacy said, but the latter’s view was obviously more in line with the reality of this world.

“But in the Kingdom of Holy Angels, things are quite different.” The God of Diplomacy, who was so handsome that he could go to Hollywood to be an idol star, had an angry look on his face. “All beliefs, except the belief in the Sun God, were suppressed. The Sun God even transformed those gods who were forced to submit to him into fighting creatures called Angels, deprived them of their priesthood, robbed them of their beliefs that they should have received, and damaged almost everything in order to benefit himself. Such selfish behavior is wrong. It’s evil!”

After hearing his righteous accusation, Sui Xiong and Wall both nodded.

“There is even more! The Sun God also encouraged his followers to replace the national law with the church’s law, and to replace the civil code with the church’s code, requiring people to live under his church’s doctrine–It’s insane! What does he think of the people? The preys that allow him to do whatever he wants? Or vegetables in the field?”

The God of Diplomacy spoke with great intensity. If the Sun God was in front of him now, he would probably have pulled out his machete and chopped him several times from top to bottom, or hit him with a wolf tooth stick to almost death.

His fierce and angry mood also influenced Sui Xiong and Wall. There was no need to explain Wall’s deep hatred with the Sun God. He had been always eager to hit the Cloud City and cut the Lord of Light into pieces with his proud Black Blade. As for Sui Xiong , he had used to have no special feeling of the Sun God before. However, for the sake of Wall, he began to dislike him. Then, hearing what the God of Diplomacy had said, his feeling towards the Sun God immediately dropped from indifference to hatred, which was similar to that–In online games, as long as one party saw the other party’s name written in red color words, there would be a PK at any time.

The God of Diplomacy then attacked the Sun God’s various means of governance. He obviously had made lot of preparation before coming, because he only talked about things with real evidence, and chose the matter that Sui Xiong hated so much that he kept frowning with increasing anger.

As he said, the Sun God was quite abominable. He was originally a Nature God, a legendary creature born in the sun. Later, he beat the demigods and other legendary creatures in the sun that might affect and hinder him, and transformed them all into “Angels”. He then spread his beliefs on the earth by various means of threats and temptations, taking advantage of the disappearance of the Ancestor God and the seclusion of the Mother of Sea. The most hateful thing was that he took advantage of the disappearance of the Goddess of Life to make lies that “the sun is the source of life” and deceived people in the human world to believe in him.

Although the Goddess of Life had disappeared, there were still some semi-divine masters who follow her in the human world. However, these masters had fallen into the trap of the Sun God and been captured by Him. They had also been transformed into “Angels”, which in turn promoted the spread of the Sun God’s faith.

At the time when the God of Knights fought against the Six Giant Orc Gods, the Sun God also made trouble by plotting between both sides. The God of Knights was badly wounded and lost his qualification to enjoy an immortal life in that war. Two more corpses of the Six Giant Orc Gods were robbed by him and transformed into two worlds– “Heaven” and “Purgatory”–to intercept souls and deceive human’s beliefs.

There were many other evils committed by the God Sun, such as he had been keen on eliminating all the dark creatures for no reason, no matter they were good or evil; on purging within his kingdom to wipe out the secular forces in large numbers; and he divided his church into three major schools and some small groups, and encouraged them to fight with each other all day long, to make an atmosphere of mystery... In a word, he was a super villain who had committed countless crimes and should be sentenced to the Heavenly Punishment in the name of justice.

“... Why don’t you seek help from the God of Justice?” Sui Xiong asked casually.

“There have been some slight misunderstandings between His Majesty Yolggardman and Our Majesty. Although Our Majesty would like to reconcile with him, he would not even meet us.” The God of Diplomacy sighed deeply, with a face of regret.

But he had nothing to regret. At last, he left with a new covenant and the farewell from Sui Xiong and Wall, who had promised to help in the battle against the Cloud City.

His diplomatic work had once again been a great success.
