Chapter 557 (2/2)
The high-ranking officials of the Republic had not expected Sui Xiong to act out so fiercely, so they could not help but look at each other in confusion.
“Your Majesty, aren’t you taking this problem too seriously?” Mrs. Teague paused for a while and asked hesitantly.
“Too seriously?” Sui Xiong sneered. “Did any of you ever live in the Orc Empire?”
“I lived there for a while,” Leon said. “You know, in the western wilderness. Generally speaking, the situation over there was good. Although the Orc gods were very powerful and they pushed other divine temples to the edge of society, other divine temples still existed there at least.”
“It was because the western wilderness was full of cruel and fierce adventurers from different races. If they hated someone, they could draw their swords out to kill his whole family. And you were one of them! No matter how fierce the Orcs were, they didn’t dare to treat those adventurers in that way.” Sui Xiong sighed. “But things are different in our Republic. Here, all the good people abide by discipline and law. Many of them have never killed any living things since they were born. Some of them have never even held a knife. Most of them like to see things from a good angle. But those Orcs are different! If they make trouble here, the situation will be out of control!”
Leon nodded slightly and understood Sui Xiong’s meaning.
In the Republic of Northwest, the people were not weak. As the descendants of the pioneers, they were both brave and strong. But they were always full of goodwill towards others. Thus, if their goodwill was taken advantage of by others, it would be easy for those forces with evil intention to grow into a threat to society.
“Then, what’s your opinion, Your Majesty?” he asked. “Refuse their request or force them to change their faith?”
Sui Xiong was silent for a moment and sighed.
“I haven’t figured it out. Do you have any good ideas?”
“I don’t think it should be you who should refuse them. Let us do it,” Gerald said. “You’re in a high position. If you show up, it will develop into a bigger deal.”
Sui Xiong didn’t say anything for a moment. When he heard the report, he subconsciously thought about some things that had happened before his space-travel. Naturally, he took the problem very seriously.
But, after some careful thoughts, he began to hesitate. On Earth before his space-travel, did the absolute top leader of a country like him really need to be so nervous and worried about such issues?
“It seems that I really don’t need to show up.”
“That’s right. In fact, there is no need for any one at the level of a great governor to do that. We can just send a normal governor to criticize them severely, and it is over.” Snow used her painting to persuade the others again. She painted a group of small ants that were chittering about something, and then a huge fist fell down from the sky. She added a cross beside them. Then she painted the same group of small ants again. A big dog came to the ants and spat at them, and the ants ran away immediately in different directions. Then she drew another cross beside them.
Sui Xiong looked at the painting and couldn’t help laughing.
“You’re right. I worry too much. It’s up to you to figure it out. Anyways, don’t give those guys any chance to take advantage of us!”
“Yes, Your Majesty!” several voices answered together.
