Those in power didn't like their subordinates to be too smart, especially those who could guess what they were thinking, which would make them restless and sleepless.
However, unlike Ignatsu, Beta was strong enough to protect himself. What he said just now was simply because he sensed the second prince's fear of him and wanted to remind him: I know what you're thinking, but don't mess with me!
The first prince was tyrannical, but the second prince wasn't a good person either. It was just picking the best out of the worst, and the second prince would at least put on some superficial effort, which was enough. After all, he didn't intend to be the second prince's advisor. As long as he got the ownership of the wetlands, he wouldn't be afraid even if the second prince became king and dissatisfied with him!
Hearing that the second prince asked him to help gather food, Liang Lidong thought for a moment and agreed.
The daily consumption of food for three hundred people wasn't too much, and the small warehouse in Mystra's Mansion's space could hold it all. The only problem at this point was where to buy or collect food.
Naturally, he couldn't enter the capital, because the first prince would definitely keep an eye on the flow of food. Although many nobles had a lot of food in storage, it would be very difficult to buy it from them, unless they paid a huge price, say two or three times the price.
However, Liang Lidong wasn't out of ideas. After a brief rest, he teleported back to Reed Village.
It was late at night, and he appeared at the gate of the Woking Temple. Hardly had he opened the gate when Jessica jumped out and hugged Liang Lidong's waist, rubbing her head against his chest.
She was like a husky!
He patted the girl's head and entered the temple. He released Kail and the others and told them to meet at the gate the next morning. Then, Emma took the queen to Belin's house. They were very close. Kail wanted to rest at home, but Alice insisted on staying at his house, so he gave it to her. He went to Winterwind to find Barbara.
Alice was so angry that she scratched the quilt and didn't sleep well that night.
Liang Lidong, on the other hand, had a good night's sleep. In addition, he had been busy fighting for the past few days, so he was indeed a little tired. As soon as he laid down on the bed, he fell asleep.
Although he fell asleep, he quickly woke up in the Nightmare Realm with a smile on his face. Sophia, who was as fair as jade, stood in front of him without a single stitch of clothing. Taking a deep breath, he asked, "Are you in Winterwind?"
Sophia nodded and smiled like a vixen who had seen meat after starving for more than ten days. She licked her red lips and said charmingly, "I've been in Winterwind all the time. I didn't expect you to come back. "
"But I'm in Reed Village, and you're in Winterwind. You can even pull me in? "
Sophia stuck close to him, and her mature womanly fragrance immediately surrounded Liang Lidong. She held the man's waist and stuck her whole body to Liang Lidong's. Then, she rubbed his private parts softly. "I've grown stronger. It's as simple as that."
Liang Lidong smiled bitterly. If he could grow stronger, so could other people. He coughed and said, "Don't be hasty. There's something I want to talk to you about. You can prepare four days' worth of food for three hundred people and the fodder for three hundred horses. Just deduct the cost from my share of the gold mine. "
"Okay. There's no problem … "Sophia's breathing became hurried. Her slender, jade-like hands reached under the hem of her clothes and touched the man's chest. As her eyes wandered, she spat out a mouthful of pink mist at Liang Lidong. The pink mist rushed towards Liang Lidong. Immediately, Liang Lidong was in a trance.
What followed was going to be a delightful show … While Sophia was looking forward to it, she heard a deafening noise from the shell of her pink nightmare space, and cracks appeared on the space like ribbons. Before she realized what was going on, a giant hole appeared in the space, and a woman in golden armor with sacred light descended from the sky.
She had bright golden hair, golden eyes, golden armor, and the golden light that surrounded her that carried the sacred attribute.
Sophia felt that she had run into her natural enemy when she saw her. She couldn't help but tremble, and she couldn't even exert the strength to control her own body.
This person was the goddess Woking. She looked at Sophia with a scrutinizing gaze … it was just a bland glance, and Sophia disappeared. The pink nightmare realm also disappeared, and the golden divine kingdom took over this space.
After taking another look at the place where Sophia disappeared, Goddess Woking turned around and walked up to Liang Lidong.
At this time, Liang Lidong's mind was quite muddled, and his' body 'was hot. He saw two mountains in front of him, and his right hand subconsciously pressed down.
Looking at the man's hand on her chest, Woking was confused and hesitant. After a second, she slapped Liang Lidong's right hand away, and a golden light shot out from her body, directly dispelling the 'enchantment' effect on Liang Lidong.
Liang Lidong blinked. He was a little surprised. "Goddess? When did you come here? "
Goddess Woking said with a faint smile, "I seem to have disturbed your plans? Do you want me to help you pull that half-blood succubus back? "
Liang Lidong hurriedly waved his hand. "No need, thank you, Goddess. I just don't know what kind of oracle the goddess has sent down this time. "
"There's no need to pretend to be in awe." Woking waved her hand and said angrily, "I know you don't have much respect for me. You just treat me as a rather powerful life. I've come here this time because I have something to talk to you about. "
"Please go ahead."
Woking mobilized her divine power and created two golden thrones. She sat on the higher one. Then, after thinking for a moment, she adjusted Liang Lidong's golden throne higher to be on par with hers. She then invited Liang Lidong to sit down and said, "I have a hunch that a new Holy War will break out in this world very soon, but our strength is still too weak. The weak must stick together to survive. If we are alone, it will be difficult for us to survive this calamity. Therefore, we have to unite against the weak gods. "
"For example?"
"The Goddess of Forest, the Goddess of Fire, or … the Goddess of Love!"
"The Goddess of Fire and the Goddess of Love are indeed weak gods." Liang Lidong was a little surprised. "But the Goddess of Forest is a superior god. How can she be weak?"
Woking shook her head, her beautiful waterfall-like bright golden hair swaying slightly. She was extremely beautiful. "Three hundred years ago, the Forest Goddess was suddenly attacked by a very strange power from another world, causing her to lose most of her divine power. After that, she was ambushed by a Demon God and almost died. If it weren't for the Light God and the Storm Goddess pulling her back, she would have been sealed in a plane gap like me, unable to come out … Perhaps, she would have been even more miserable than me."
"The Goddess of Fire and the Goddess of Love's Pope are not difficult to find." Liang Lidong nodded. "But the Goddess of Forest's Pope is the elf queen … She hides in the Elf Forest. It will be very, very difficult to ally with her."
"It doesn't matter." Woking waved his hand. "It would be great if we can contact her, but it doesn't matter if we can't. As long as the Goddess of Love and the Goddess of Fire can ally with us, we will at least have more confidence in the upcoming turmoil. "
Liang Lidong nodded to show that he understood.
Goddess Woking continued, "Actually, I have always been paying attention to you … to be exact, I have been paying attention to your soul waves. After you became a Master, your soul waves are still very calm and you don't seem very excited. Are you not interested in improving your strength? "
Liang Lidong was stunned. He didn't think that Woking would actually pay attention to him.
In the game, he was already a Legend, so he naturally didn't have any special opinions about Masters. However, he couldn't tell Woking about this, so he thought for a moment and said, "Maybe I'm not a person who gets excited easily."
Woking looked at Liang Lidong for a while before smiling. "Then I'll take that as it is … I should go. Although there have been a few more people worshiping me recently, it is still quite a difficult thing to do."
"Goodbye, Goddess."
Woking floated up, and the golden paradise gradually blurred. When she was about to disappear, she suddenly remembered something and said, "Right, don't hang out with those filthy succubi all the time. Although you are a professional, they will absorb your energy. More importantly, you are my Pope, and you can't hang out with such lowly creatures. Since you like that kind of thing, I'll give you a pure partner later. There's no need to thank me or be courteous. It's a reward that you deserve."
Then, without waiting for Liang Lidong's reply, she disappeared from the dream.
Liang Lidong, on the other hand, woke up very soon. It was already morning. He got up and washed his face. When he was about to teleport to Winterwind to collect the military supplies from Sophia, he heard an explosion in the backyard of the temple, as if something heavy had fallen.
Fearing that it was an enemy attack, Liang Lidong jumped out of the window and ran to the backyard, only to discover a deep crater and a golden, round magic shield. Several seconds later, the magic shield was gone, and a beautiful girl in a white dress was standing inside.
She had long, bright blonde hair and pure white skin. Most importantly, this young lady looked extremely similar to Woking. Apart from lacking Woking's divine aura, everything else was almost exactly the same. Liang Lidong suspected that the girl was directly related to Woking.
When the girl saw Liang Lidong, her pale golden eyes revealed a hint of joy. With a light leap, she landed in front of Liang Lidong and knelt down on one knee. With an adoring gaze, she said, "Your Holiness, the Goddess has asked me to serve you. From now on, I will be your scabbard."
Liang Lidong slapped his forehead, rather lost for words. He thought that Woking was just saying it casually, but he did send a woman to him. More importantly, why did the girl look so much like her?
Could it be a divine avatar?
