Do not engage in underworld operations in the human world!

Chapter 440 If you don’t do it, others will.
Jiang Lu's subtext is already obvious.

Although he didn't say anything very strong like not coming to register would mean being an enemy of hell, everyone here knew what voyeurism represented.

It's like an invisible sword hanging over everyone's head, which may fall at any time, but you can't see it or touch it, and you don't know when it will fall and cut off your head.

The Other World and Mount Sumeru have expressed their stance, so they are still friends of Hell, but if they don’t express their stance, they will be enemies.

This is somewhat suspicious of diodes. Not expressing a position does not mean that one is on Sumer's side, but unfortunately, although this is the truth, Jiang Lu does not intend to reason with them.

As the saying goes, a weak country has no diplomacy. The weak world is also not qualified to reason with the super world.

The Other World and Mount Sumeru could just laugh it off with Hell and just make a few verbal agreements, but the small world couldn't do that. They had to sign an agreement, and once they signed the agreement, it would mean that there was no possibility of building a good relationship with Sumer at all.

But if we join the alliance, it is impossible not to have contact with Sumer. If we offend them at this time.
But if we don't sign, we will offend Hell, which is a behemoth that even the Other World and Mount Sumeru don't want to provoke. If we are really targeted and want to ask them to make the decision, I'm afraid they will refuse with reasons like they don't want to get involved too much due to personal grudges.
This is a difficult choice.

However, as for how to choose, Jiang Lu did not force them. It was all up to them. This made the participants from the small world a little hesitant.

“How dare you!!”

Old Man Moon noticed the hesitation of the participants and quickly criticized Jiang Lu:

"You are trying to sow discord among the alliance. You are bullying them and intimidating them! Are you planning to become an enemy of the alliance?"

After that, he waved his hand and assured the participants very seriously: "Don't worry, when an ally is in danger, no matter what others do, Sumer will not sit idly by. Just ignore him."

And what Jiang Lu was waiting for was for him to speak.

He actually clapped his hands, nodded and said, "You can trust him."

Participants were puzzled by this reaction.

But before they could think about it, Jiang Lu continued, "Then give it a try. When Sumer has no idea where I will start, let's gamble whether I can hold out until they arrive."

"Uh"

Is this completely unconcealed?
A sense of sadness rose in the hearts of the participants.

Is this the fate of the weak world? Sandwiched between the super worlds, becoming the victim of their game?

Lucifer was sitting next to Jiang Lu, but did not stop him.

He had already seen that Jiang Lu was not making trouble, and he understood the essence of it. He was not worried at all that he would make enemies in Hell, or be targeted by the Other World and Mount Sumeru.

It can be seen that Lucifer doesn't care at all, but the Yin Emperor is a little anxious.

"Lucifer, this doesn't mean hell, does it?"

Lucifer just glanced at him and ignored him completely.

As for the other world and Mount Sumeru, they are none of their business and they are just out of touch with each other.

Although they were somewhat dissatisfied with Jiang Lu using his kindness to make a fuss, in the long run, this might not be a bad thing.

In the future, there will be four super worlds within the alliance, the underworld, the other world, Mount Sumeru and Sumer. Although the four will maintain friendly and close relations on the surface, this is based on the fact that everyone has the same goal and similar strength.

But friends can often share hardships but not happiness. When it comes to dividing the benefits after defeating Zeus, it will be hard to say.

Everyone knows that once this alliance is established, its potential will be enormous. It will develop into a barrier similar to the United World. Whoever has a say in the alliance will have a say in the entire universe.

In order to gain more voice, although open fighting is impossible, private competition is inevitable.

Among them, the number and quality of supporters, that is, who these small worlds decide to attach themselves to, will also be part of the competition.

But what if from now on, Sumer has no supporters because of the conflict between Old Man of the Moon and Hell?

Then, Sumer would become a power point with only a nominal title but in reality completely hollowed out, waiting for other power points to take over and erode step by step.

This means that before the competition even started, Sumer had already lost the qualifications to be their competitor.

This is something that the other two super worlds besides the underworld would be happy to see.

So not only did they not get involved at all, they also turned a blind eye to Yin Di's look for help, and even hoped that Jiang Lu would do something more ruthless, so that Sumer would be completely finished.

Even if Sumer can get the same amount as others when the spoils are distributed, it is just temporary storage for them, and they will have to give it up sooner or later.

They could think of this, and of course Lucifer had thought of it too, so he didn't care at all, because he knew that this was exactly what the Other World and Mount Sumeru wanted.

What is happening now, to put it nicely, is a campaign of alliances and coalitions; to put it bluntly, it is actually the other world, Mount Sumeru and hell joining forces to bully Sumer.

So even Lucifer had to be surprised that Jiang Lu actually knew how to do diplomacy.

It seems that Jiang Lu’s ability to develop the underworld so brilliantly in the past was not entirely due to good luck.

The participants in the big world all knew it tacitly, but Old Man Moon and Emperor Yin were still kept in the dark.

Old Man Moon was disappointed with their inaction.

Yin Di even speculated that there might be some rift between Sumer and the two worlds that he was unaware of.

Seeing that the atmosphere was almost set, Jiang Lu knocked on the table and said with a playful smile: "But don't be so nervous, things won't get that bad. After all, we don't have any grudges, and Hell is not the kind of guy who bullies the weak and fears the strong."

After a pause, he changed the subject and said earnestly:

"But if you ask me, everyone is still a little irrational when encountering things. Let's think about it from a different angle and expand our thinking. What's the big deal if you sign? Will you still be held accountable?
Even if someone really holds a grudge against you, what does it matter? By then, everyone will be in the alliance, so how can Moon Lord do anything to you?
If he dares to mess with you, wouldn't that mean he is creating division and is against the alliance?"

"What nonsense are you talking about, you bastard?!" Old Man Moon cursed.

"Oh, it's so urgent, so fierce, so scary."

Jiang Lu covered his mouth and chuckled:

"Okay, I admit, he does look like someone who will hold a grudge, but don't worry even if he holds a grudge against you. He doesn't have the final say in the alliance, there will always be someone to help you make the decision. If all else fails, then go to hell. People nickname me the Internet Police and the Chief Justice of Justice, and I will go out and enforce justice!"

you?
Is it possible that it is because of you that things have turned out like this?
Although everyone thought so in their hearts, no one dared to say it out loud.

However, Jiang Lu's words did give them some inspiration.

Yes, within the alliance, infighting is definitely not allowed. Although I went to Hell to pay my respects today, it seems that Sumer can't do anything to us.

Besides, he is the boss.
Everyone looked towards the other world and Mount Sumeru at the same time.

Their participants seemed to suddenly become very busy. They were either looking at something carefully, or suddenly talking to the people around them, whispering to each other, and avoiding eye contact.

Everyone had an epiphany at that moment.

The other world and Mount Sumeru are not as passive as we are. They refuted Sumer in front of him and showed goodwill to Hell.

Sumer may hold a grudge against everyone, but not against them. So wouldn't it be enough for us to just surrender to them when the time comes?
When it comes to alliances, there will always be factional disputes. Even if there were no conflicts between Sumer and Hell, there would definitely be other times in the future when you need to take sides.

If you think about it carefully, now all we have done is cut off the possibility of everyone and Sumer forming an alliance. But there is still the underworld, the other world, and Mount Sumeru, right?
Jiang Lu gave everyone some pointers, and everyone's minds suddenly became clear. After realizing this, they suddenly felt that their previous worries were not a big deal.

Even more optimistically, isn't this a good opportunity to make friends with hell?
Maybe when I meet Lucifer in the future, I can use this incident to put on a smile -

"Lord Lucifer, have you forgotten? When we were in the underworld, we dealt with Sumer together!"

"Yeah, yeah, that's right."

Well, it’s all good with no harm, right?

It was not until this time that Old Man Moon and Emperor Yin realized the key.

Old Man Moon woke up as if from a dream and looked towards the other world and Mount Sumeru in disbelief.

My brother and I are connected by heart, and he uses his brain with me? ?

Yin Di, on the other hand, had an embarrassed look on his face, but it was not easy for him to intervene in such matters. He also realized that it seemed irrational to help Sumer now.

Seeing that the Other World and Mount Sumeru were just watching the fire from the other side of the river and enjoying it, and seeing the Yin Emperor's helpless expression, Old Man Moon finally turned evil and stopped pretending.

If he can't deal with these companies, can he deal with the others present?
"Who dares to sign it?"

"Look, you're anxious again." Jiang Lu shook his head at Old Man Moon with pity: "If you feel wronged, you can quit. There are plenty of people who will do it if you don't."

After thinking for a while, he added: "If you quit, it would be better for Hell to join the alliance. Then there will be fewer unnecessary people and everyone will be happy."

"Don't even think about it!!"

Old Man Moon rejected Jiang Lu with the idea that if he couldn't get it, no one else could either.

In fact, it was impossible for him to really withdraw from the alliance. Before he came, his father, Enlil, the supreme god of Sumer, had told him that he could only succeed and not fail, and he must strive for the highest possible position in the alliance.

The latter is now impossible, it has been completely messed up. If I quit the alliance out of spite, I really won't be able to explain myself.

You know, although he has the highest status among the third generation of main gods, he has an equally powerful brother, the Sun God Utu. If he is branded as incompetent, it is very likely that the title of Moon God will no longer be above that of the Sun God.

Therefore, no matter what, even if he suffered a lot of injustice, he had to endure it, otherwise he would be doomed both internally and externally.

However, Jiang Lu didn't know this. The reason why the Yin-Yang Moon Old Man added that he would join after he quit Hell was because he was really afraid that Sumer would quit.

He rarely does things to the extreme, let alone now that he represents hell.

The reason why he would do this now was, firstly, because Sumer was pro-Yin Emperor and had become his potential enemy, and secondly, because, judging by the attitudes of the Other World and Mount Xumi, the formation of the alliance was already irreversible.

Therefore, he had to leave a nail in the alliance, plant a foreshadowing, and create an unstable factor so that he could find an opportunity to disintegrate the alliance in the future.

If Sumer withdrew at this time, wouldn't everything done before be in vain?

He wouldn't allow this to happen.

"Okay." Jiang Lu shrugged, with a nonchalant attitude: "I didn't really want to join in the first place, and besides, you're really pretentious."

Then, he asked Yin Di: "Isn't it almost time to finish what you wanted to say?"

Yin Di knew that Sumer was doomed and that even the gods could not save it, so he could only force a smile and said, "The next issue is the distribution of rights and interests. This..."

He was very dissatisfied with Hell, but he couldn't show it openly, so he could only say: "Let's discuss this privately. Anyway, Hell doesn't plan to join the alliance, so it's not convenient for me to tell you these things."

"It doesn't matter."

Jiang Lu nodded, then took out a piece of white paper and shouted to the small worlds:

"You've heard everything, right? I've said everything I need to say. If you want to join the alliance, come here and register. If you haven't registered, be careful that I catch you."

At this moment, the mentality of the representatives of the participants in the small world has changed completely.

They acted as if they were being forced, looked at Old Man Moon apologetically, then "reluctantly" stood up and walked towards Jiang Lu.

Those who were more alert would write down their names and the world they came from on pieces of paper while reporting their names, intending to leave a deep impression on Hell.

No one expected that this step, which was supposed to determine the signing of a sacred agreement after the formation of the alliance, was actually taken precedent by Jiang Lu's white paper that was almost as simple as a registration form.

Although the representatives from the other world and Mount Sumeru seemed to feel sorry for Sumer's plight, they were actually already smiling in their hearts. It was just the wrong occasion, otherwise they would really like to praise them for a job well done.

Yin Di was pretending to pack up his things. Sometimes his notebook and sometimes his pen dropped, and he was picking them up back and forth. In short, he was just pretending to be deaf and dumb.

Only Old Man Moon stood in the middle of the field, out of place with the lively environment around him, like a clown.

Somehow, he couldn't help it.

Without a sound, he moved his feet, then raised his hand and grabbed Jiang Lu who was filling out the form with his head down.
