Chapter 3221 Arrangement
After a pause, Andrew continued, "Simply put, it's about corrupting the sea goddess. In fact, the reason why Xisorn asked the official leader to postpone the meeting was because He was corrupting the sea goddess's right hand."
If Sithon succeeds, apart from a small number of powerful individuals who will be spared, the rest of Miami's population will be sacrificed to the Great Demon God and condemned to eternal damnation.
Of course, don't think you're lucky to be alive. Without a sense of self, what's the difference between you and death?
"Sithon is truly insidious. If it weren't for you, King of Superpowers, his plan would definitely have succeeded."
General Ruth said with a grim expression, "Without the King of Superpowers, he would definitely be enslaved by the official leader and become a follower of the Great Demon God."
Of course, General Ruth wouldn't be grateful to Andrew for this. He only wanted to use Andrew to get through this crisis, and once that crisis was over, he would naturally find a way to turn on Andrew.
"Don't worry, I won't let Xisorn succeed. This is about the bigger picture. The more cities that hold out, the more likely humanity is to survive in the apocalypse."
Andrew looked at General Ruth and said, "The life and death of this world will be determined by the battle between the Great Demon God and the Machine God, and everything we are doing now is to ensure that the Machine God can win."
These words were naturally meant to deceive General Ruth and make him obey. General Ruth was shocked upon hearing this and hurriedly asked, "Mr. King of Superpowers, are you the messenger of the God of Machines?"
The sea goddess hadn't said much about Andrew's identity before, partly because it was unnecessary, and partly because she wasn't entirely sure about it.
In the eyes of the sea goddess, Andrew was the messenger of the god of machines, just as Sithon was the messenger of the great demon god. The problem was that Andrew did not acknowledge this, but instead claimed to be the partner of the god of machines.
How could the goddess of the sea believe this? Even now, after being defeated by Andrew, the goddess of the sea still couldn't believe it.
"The messenger of the God of Machines?"
King Kong and Scorpion exclaimed in surprise upon hearing this. At the same time, they finally understood why Andrew was so powerful, even able to defeat God: because he was God's messenger!
The divine messenger, in a sense, is no different from a god. It's incredible that a mortal could defeat the goddess of the sea, but it's perfectly normal for a divine messenger to defeat the goddess of the sea; there's no need to elaborate.
Andrew sensed the thoughts of General Ruth and the other two and secretly shook his head. These people were ignorant and always thought that gods were invincible. Even if the goddess of the sea was dismembered, they would still hold this idea.
This is similar to the Godkiller in Thor: Love and Thunder. Despite hating the gods to the core and killing them everywhere, in the end, the solution to the problem is still to pray to the gods.
“If I say no, you definitely won’t believe me, so I won’t say any more.”
Andrew said, "In short, there are two things. First, you don't need to worry about anything; we can win. Second, our mission is very important. Whether humanity can survive and whether the God of Machines can defeat the Great Demon God depends on our efforts."
The first method was to make grand promises, and the second was to make grand pronouncements. Although these were both old-fashioned tactics, they were quite effective. General Ruth and the other two expressed their full cooperation with Andrew.
As for turning against Andrew, General Ruth and his two companions temporarily abandoned the idea, since Andrew had powerful backers, and turning against him might incur the wrath of the God of Machines.
In fantasy novels, why are the protagonists always the ones being killed by their enemies? Because most protagonists are alone, without any powerful backing. Killing them not only allows you to obtain everything they have, but also eliminates the risk of retaliation.
In this situation, the enemies would naturally act with impunity. If the protagonist had a powerful backer, the enemies would certainly not dare to kill him without warning.
Of course, this does not mean that General Ruth and his two companions have completely submitted. We will have to see how things develop and change. But for now, they have no intention of rebelling.
"Their idea is good, but unfortunately they don't realize that they will become more and more loyal to me over time."
Andrew sneered inwardly. The manipulation he had done in the minds of General Ruth and the other two was no simple matter. In addition to being able to monitor them at any time, he could also influence their thoughts, making them more and more obedient to Andrew.
Of course, this takes time, and the effect is directly related to their reverence for Andrew; the more reverence they have for Andrew, the better the effect.
This is one of the reasons why Andrew wanted to compete with the Goddess of the Sea, and it's also the reason why Andrew said so much.
Given the current mindset of General Ruth and his two companions, it won't be long before they truly submit to Andrew.
This method of slowly boiling a frog is much better than directly controlling it with supernatural abilities, because it does not affect the other person's mind and spirit. In other words, things will remain the same as before.
In addition, Andrew made arrangements at the core of General Ruth's and the other two's souls to ensure that they would not be controlled by others.
"King of Superpowers, it seems you intend for General Ruth to pretend nothing happened and continue his meeting with the Speaker?"
The sea goddess thought for a moment, then asked in confusion, "Doing this will put General Ruth in great danger, and he might even be controlled by the Great Demon God."
"Goddess of the Sea, thank you for your concern. However, I am not worried about this matter. Mr. King of Superpowers is the messenger of the God of Machines and a savior. He certainly would not sacrifice me."
General Ruth was not alarmed by this. Instead, he flattered Ruth with a smile, saying that the King of Superpowers would definitely not allow him to be controlled by the official leader, so he was not worried at all.
Flattery is something you have to do often, after all, no boss dislikes flattery. General Russ was no exception; he liked his subordinates praising him every day.
The sea goddess stared speechlessly at General Ruth, "Don't think I can't see that you're stepping on me."
The Goddess of the Sea has already died once, and is not as foolish as before. Andrew said, "Goddess of the Sea, you are right. I am indeed planning to have General Ruth pretend that nothing happened and continue to meet with the official leaders."
However, you don't need to worry about anything. The official leader couldn't assassinate General Ruth; he could only leave and continue to think of other ways.
Simply put, it's about buying time so we can complete our preparations. Once we're ready, we can concentrate our forces to deal with them, eliminate them completely, and restore peace to Miami.
"Mr. King of Superpowers, just tell us what you need to do, and we will do our best to cooperate with you."
General Ruth said readily. Andrew glanced at him and sighed inwardly, no wonder loyal ministers always met with bad ends, while treacherous ministers often rose in rank and made a fortune.
Which loyal subject could be like General Ruth, who not only speaks so well but also works so cooperatively?
