Chapter 237 The Divine Right of Kings
Chapter 237 The Divine Right of Kings
Commander-in-Chief Mike in Neon was a sensible man. After he made up his mind to surrender to Xiao Xian, he not only helped to keep most of the military equipment, but also personally persuaded Xiao Xian to keep most of the officers and soldiers.
In return, and also adhering to the principle of making the best use of resources, Xiao Xian asked him to help accept Japan's surrender as a representative.
On the one hand, Mike and the troops stationed in Neon are not native Neon people, and they have access to violence, which can be used to divert conflicts and do things very conveniently.
On the other hand, Japan was accustomed to being bullied by the Japanese troops stationed there, so they were very efficient in persuading them to surrender and there were few unexpected incidents.
It didn't take too much time for the entire Neon to surrender openly, but undercurrents were still surging in secret.
After all, it is a modern country that has completed nation-building. Even if the government orders it to do so, there will be no shortage of various organizations among the people trying to reverse it.
Similar situations exist in other countries, not to mention immediately after their demise, even ten or twenty years after their demise, they still exist.
However, most of the resistance organizations were soon caught because Xiao Xian took action. It would be ineffective to catch them one by one. Xiao Xian's solution was very simple, which was to turn on the super charm to the maximum and give a national live speech in Neon.
Then in an instant, Xiao Xian had half of his fanatical fans. Not to mention organizing a resistance against the organization, as long as anyone dared to say a bad word about Xiao Xian in front of these fanatical fans, even if they were fathers, husbands, or sons, they would be reported.
Not to mention the resistance organization, those who spoke ill of Xiao Xian, although not punishable by death according to the law, were often beaten to death by angry and fanatical fans before they could be arrested.
Not only those who really dared to curse Xiao Xian, but also those Japanese men who spoke badly about Xiao Xian, and even many who were wrongly accused, were beaten to death by the angry crowd. However, because Xiao Xian did not care about the lives of these Japanese men, he did not bother to care. What he wanted now was stability.
Anyway, as long as visas are relaxed and birth subsidies are increased, it is not difficult to increase the fertility rate. As for the marriage rate, Xiao Xian doesn't care about that. As long as there is life, who cares whether it is born in or out of wedlock, naturally conceived, or artificially conceived? Even if all Japanese men are killed, Xiao Xian can find a way to increase the fertility rate.
Anyway, if Japanese men can't have children, there are still Chinese men. If all else fails, just do artificial insemination. Anyway, one man is enough to make a lot of women pregnant.
As for those who really don't want to have children, a points system will be implemented. Having children will increase points. As long as you have enough children, even if you are a murderer, you won't go to hell after death.
After all, the reason most people don't have children is not because they are completely unwilling to do so, but because the cost of having children is far greater than the benefits. Coupled with the high pressure of life, naturally fewer people are willing to have children.
Previously, Neon’s rulers and bourgeoisie were unwilling to share the benefits with the people. The people were under tremendous pressure, and the Neon officials were unable to extract enough benefits from the rulers and bourgeoisie for the people to have children.
But now the new ruling class in Neon is Xiao Xian and the Egyptian gods. Although they are still exploiting, what they exploit are souls, beliefs, money, resources, etc. It doesn’t matter at all.
Xiao Xian took a lot of money and resources from the vested interests and distributed them to the people to attract overseas immigrants. The gods only wanted souls. As for who lives on this land of Neon and whether they have Neon blood flowing in their blood, the gods don't care.
After generally stabilizing the situation in Neon and formulating the next direction of development, Xiao Xian called Anmanet over to hold a coronation ceremony. Although this queen was only a mascot representing the divine right of kings in the theocratic kingdom in the Neon system and had little power, it was considered that Xiao Xian had fulfilled his original promise to Anmanet.
By the way, the gods' strength was also demonstrated, so that the Japanese people would know that resistance was a dead end, and the situation in Japan would be completely stabilized. The much-anticipated coronation ceremony was about to begin, and the palace was crowded with people from all over Japan. A huge golden disc was hung above the palace, like a brilliant little sun, shining with sacred light.
As the representative of the Egyptian gods, Xiao Xian was dressed in a silver-white robe and had an extraordinary handsome face. He held a scepter with a dazzling fiery red gem inlaid on the top. Xiao Xian walked up the steps slowly and looked down at the crowd below.
Most Japanese girls looked at Xiao Xian with fanaticism, while many Japanese boys looked at Xiao Xian with dissatisfaction and even hatred in their eyes, but few dared to express it or take action.
Xiao Xian's eyes swept across the people in the audience and paused for a moment on a man with an ordinary face. Xiao Xian understood that this man was a member of the resistance organization, and he would risk his life to assassinate a lucky senior official today.
However, Xiao Xian did not intend to stop him. On the contrary, Xiao Xian specifically instructed the security personnel to search him at will and to stay away from him when patrolling.
After looking at the people in the audience, Xiao Xian turned to Anmanet who looked excited.
"God's will is with you!" Xiao Xian said solemnly, his voice spreading far away. "Anmanet, you will become the queen of Neon and lead them to the path of peace and prosperity."
Anmanet knelt down slowly, wearing a white dress, and her dazzling golden pupils sparkled in the light. She stretched out her head respectfully and let Xiao Xian put the crown on her head. Her body was trembling with excitement. After being buried underground for thousands of years, she finally got what she wanted today.
The whole audience burst into cheers, and people shouted "Long live!" and "May we be forever protected by the gods!"
Then all the officials congratulated him. When Mike was walking through the aisle in the middle of the crowd as planned, a young man rushed out of the crowd, holding a gun and rushed to the aisle. Before anyone could react, he shot Mike twice!
"Ah!" Mike screamed, his body fell limply to the ground, blood quickly spread on his black suit.
"Long live Neon! Neon will never die! All of you who are accomplices to the evil will be punished!" the young man shouted, with smoke still coming out of the muzzle of the gun.
After the young man committed the crime, his face became ferocious and he put the muzzle of the gun against his own temple.
"I will never surrender! Even if my soul is tortured forever! Japanese! Unite and resist the rule of the false gods!" He roared loudly, with fanatical flames burning in his eyes, and he seemed to be ready to die.
The gunshot rang out suddenly, but to everyone's surprise, the muzzle only shot out a string of transparent bubbles! The bubbles rippled in the air, flashing brilliant colors.
The young man was stunned, looking at the bubbles floating higher and higher in the sun in astonishment, and he could not believe his eyes. At this moment, Xiao Xian stepped into the air and flew over the young man, looking down at him.
"You false god! How can you be called a god!" The young man cursed with gnashing teeth: "Even if I am imprisoned and tortured by you forever, my soul will never surrender! I have no regrets!"
"The young man is very courageous." Xiao Xian looked at the young man's passionate expression calmly, and had no intention of stopping him at all. The more righteous he was now, the more shocking it would be when he begged for mercy later.
