Pioneering

Chapter 128 Sleepy Hope

"So, what's the third question?" Zhong Ming didn't rush to ask, but let the nobles ecstasy and praise Matt for a while before asking slowly.

Zhong Ming said silently in his heart: "It's true, it's true."

Matt fixed his mind, recovered from the shock of Zhong Ming's miracle, and said, "The third answer is, the object, uh—"

I saw that he just said the beginning, he yawned, his eyes were dizzy, intense sleepiness flooded every part of his body, he fell headfirst on the floor, and fell into a deep sleep.

The princes and nobles present were dumbfounded. From despair to hope and then to despair, the exciting psychological changes like a roller coaster made them a little overwhelmed.

Grand Duke Dicole broke through his physical limit in a collapse, staggered against Zhong Ming's coercion, rushed to Matt, and shook his body desperately, trying to wake him up.

Back in the early morning of this morning, Matt's eldest son Hughes took over the whip, drove the carriage, and listened silently to his father's chattering boast.

"Hughes, don't be frowning, your father and I are the gods, do you understand the gods?"

"When I complete the mission under the Sea God's Crown, I will definitely lead you to live a good life."

"The god of wealth, hehe, is also worthy to rule Yige? Only under the crown of the sea god is worthy, and only the church of the sea god is orthodox."

"Tomorrow I will..."

"Haha, I will soon be the great hero who saved the Principality."

Listening to his father's boastful words, Hughes recalled the hopeful expressions of the folks in the village when Bute was preaching, and thought of his hungry brothers and sisters under the "tithe" of the Sea God Church in previous years, his eyes flickered.

"Is what the Sea God said really credible? Has He really given us any favors? Can our family really live a good life?" Hughes doubted his father's words in his heart.

"Sea God is really the only ruler in this land. Is the Church of Sea God really the only orthodoxy in this land? If it is the God of Wealth, it is the Church of Wealth..." Hughes listened to his father falling into The snoring sound of dreamland, the thoughts in my heart surged.

"The God of Wealth is so generous and fair, if he and his church can..."

"No, isn't there a chance to let the glory of the God of Wealth shine on Yige? As long as father goes late, then..." Hughes became more and more excited as he thought about it, and his hand waving the horsewhip trembled slightly .

Hughes had never been a devout believer of Sea God, even under the influence of his father day and night, he was still a shallow believer.

Perhaps it was because he saw his father abandoning his newborn baby sister when he was young;
Maybe it was because I saw the villagers who sold their children because of the church tax;
Perhaps it was because he saw his father sacrifice his daughter to please the missionaries of the Sea God Church, and he heard his sister screaming all night under the torture of that bastard.

In short, Hughes was never a devout follower of the Sea God, and even had an unspeakable aversion to the Sea God Church since he was a child.

Hughes touched the small piece of silver in his pocket, the wealth that the God of Wealth generously bestowed on believers, the fruit of his hard work helping Mr. Bute preach.

If I hadn't secretly left two pieces of silver for my mother and younger brothers and sisters, wouldn't they be starved to death?

Hughes' father, Matt, had to evacuate his belongings in exchange for the items needed for the trip.

Thinking of this, Hughes' dislike of Seagod and his dissatisfaction with his fanatical father reached the extreme, and he made up his mind completely.

Hughes gradually slowed down the speed of the car, and silently prayed to Zhong Ming: "The great existence from the azure star, you are the master of metal, you are the pioneer of machinery and industry, and you are the master of wealth. Under the protection of the Lord, I will obtain wealth equivalent to labor.

Please listen to the prayers of your faithful believers, your humble servant has important news to tell you, and this news will affect your brilliance to shine on the whole Yig..."

Zhong Ming added quite a few believers in the past six days, and it is impossible for tens of thousands of believers to pray to Him every day to listen to all of them, but to block most of them.

However, Zoya World doesn't have any night entertainment, and Zhong Ming doesn't have any night owl believers. Suddenly, a believer kept praying to him in the early morning, which quickly caught his attention.

"Ahem, mortal, what's the matter with you?"

Hughes felt a surge of consciousness pouring into his mind, and he couldn't help feeling a little pain in his head.

Fortunately, Zhong Ming's current state is only at the limit of demigod, and if he doesn't dream to deliver the oracle, it just makes Hughes feel a slight sense of stagnation in his head.

Feeling Zhong Ming's will, Hughes said excitedly and tremblingly: "Your Majesty, yes, it is like this, my father..."

……

Soon, the conversation between Hughes and Zhong Ming came to an end.

Touching a bottle of potion that suddenly appeared in his hand, Hughes resolutely poured it into the kettle and shook it again.

"Anyway, His Majesty said that he would only be in a coma, that's all. I did it for the good of my father, for the good of my family, and for the good of everyone..." Hughes comforted himself.

"Hughes, what are you doing, why did you stop?" Matt asked half asleep when he felt the carriage stop.

Hughes, who was about to wave his horsewhip and start again, suddenly heard his own questioning, and tremblingly said, "No, it's nothing, Father, I just got out of the car to take a pee."

Fortunately, Matt didn't ask any further questions. When he saw the carriage moving again, he fell into sleep again—he was really exhausted from running around for days, and he wasn't young anymore.

Hughes, who heard his father's snoring, breathed a sigh of relief, cheered up, and concentrated on driving.

The sky gradually lit up, and Hughes also saw the majestic and magnificent Nabrien from a distance, slowed down the speed of the car, and stopped.

"Father, father, wake up, we're almost here." Hughes held the kettle and dry bread in one hand, and shook Matt lightly with the other, "Eat something, we're about to enter the city."

Matt opened his eyes in a daze. After cursing a few words, he took the dry bread and the kettle, took a sip of water and bread, quickly wiped out these things, and clapped his hands to get up.

The next step is to line up into the city, look for the palace, and ask for an audience.

After a while, the sleeping potion mixed with a lot of water took effect just before Matt entered the palace, and he started yawning non-stop, but he was suppressed by his extremely excited and fanatical spirit.

Zhong Ming watched his eyelids fight non-stop, so he gently pushed his hand, and deliberately postponed asking questions for a while, and sure enough, the effect of the medicine was just right.

Looking at the nobles who wished to hack Matt to death with a knife, and Grand Duke Dicole who would have taken action if Zhong Ming hadn't been present, Zhong Ming urged:

"Mortal, are you kidding me? Or are you ready to give up?"

"The answer to the third question, do you still want to answer it!"
