The Warrior of Love

Even if it was Jiang Liu, he would not be able to defeat such a strong man unless he gave his all.

Such a being actually came to the underworld...

You know, the existence of individuals above four digits is completely different from that of mortal races. It can be said to be the "realm of gods". Generally, the famous heroes or most gods in mythology are at this level, and the same is true for the heavenly army.

If such a powerful individual comes to the middle and lower levels at will, it will cause all kinds of disasters like the God of Disobedience, so the upper level has rules that will restrict the activities of individuals above four digits.

As for those at the three-digit level, they have to go through a series of cumbersome procedures and processes just to move around in the middle and lower levels. Basically, they will not walk around randomly, and they are completely invisible in the lower levels.

——White Yaksha, Jiang Liu, and the three-headed dragon are exceptions.

Although there were four-digit gods and Buddhas who had taken the trouble to come to Jiang Liu before, this time it was the three-digit Emperor Shitian who came in person...

"Okay, let's meet up then."

Jiang Liu thought about it and felt relieved: "Anyway, I have to come into contact with the upper-level Shura gods and Buddhas, so it's not bad to start with him."

Chapter 986: Malice from Heaven

Indra is indeed a very interesting deity.

First of all, his heritage is very ancient, and there are many corresponding images in various myths. His stories are circulated not only in India, but also throughout East Asia and the Middle East.

And his status is not low. In Hinduism, he is the king of gods, Indra who is in charge of thunder. In Japan, he is called "Gomon Shakuten". In Chinese Buddhism, he corresponds to "Indra", and he even has a place in Persian Zoroastrianism.

However, when modern people mention him, the first thing that comes to mind is not his mighty power, but his cowardly image as a stepping stone used by the three gods and various heroes in the epic...

Of course, this is caused by the evolution of mythology. The original Indra was an extremely majestic god, worthy of the title of Emperor of Heaven.

By the way, Jiang Liu and him actually have a certain cause and effect relationship.

It was recorded in the Mahabharata that the sons of Indra, represented by Arjuna, were equivalent to Indra himself, just as Karna was equivalent to the sun god Surya, and Jiang Liu absorbed Arjuna's divinity.

In addition, the Persian military god Veleslana is considered to correspond to Indra, the Thunder God - this is another connection.

Finally, one of Jiang Liu’s trump cards is the main divinity of the Mecha God o the Sun King - the ancient father "Tius".

Its relationship with Indra in Indian mythology corresponds to the story of Uranus and Cronus in Greek mythology, and can almost be said to be its prototype.

In fact, to put it bluntly, with Jiang Liu's current accumulation, he would be able to meet a few "relatives and friends" no matter where he goes.

Let’s talk about Indra in the small garden.

Because of the particularity of the box garden world itself, the Indra here is the strongest race, that is, a natural god species.

In the existing myths in the outside world, his different images gradually spread after he had accomplished various achievements.

Now, Indra, like Byakuyasha, has converted to Buddhism and is the leader of the "Twelve Guardians of the Dharma". He also leads the "Heavenly Army", the most violent group in the box garden.

Although it is only a three-digit number, it is an "exception" like the three-headed dragon.

But when Jiang Liu really met the King of Gods, his first impression was very different from what he had imagined.

"Um... the tea is cold, can you give me another cup? Also, can you tell me when Bai Yasha will be back? My legs are a little numb from waiting... Hey, don't you need to sit up straight?

But this is a Japanese-style room, isn't that a bit rude? Oops, I drank too much tea, where is the toilet?"

When Bai Yasha led Jiang Liu in, the Lord God King was whispering to the female clerk to change a cup of hot tea, while the female clerk of the "Thousand Eyes" branch had a strange look on her face.

Maybe she was not used to it. After all, not all big shots would treat her with such humility.

"You can sit however you want. There are not so many rules here."

Bai Yasha waved his fan impatiently, and the female clerk immediately left the room with a look of relief.

Emperor Shitian was relieved when he saw Bai Yasha: "You are finally back. I thought you would stand me up and leave me here alone."

"What if I really stand you up?"

Bai Yasha found a soft cushion to sit on and looked at Indra with a smile.

The man immediately looked miserable: "Then I'll just have to wait..."

His voice had no momentum at all and his appearance was very ordinary. He was wearing a shirt with an open collar and a suit jacket over it. He was about thirty years old and looked like a loser who was having a mid-life crisis. He could be found everywhere.

"You see, that's it."

Bai Yasha turned around and said to Jiang Liu, "That's why I said this guy is easy to deal with. You might be able to take this opportunity to avoid a lot of trouble."

Jiang Liu was also slightly surprised, but he quickly calmed down.

His hometown is Type-Moon, and he has seen many characters with subversive images. No matter how useless the Indra in front of him looks, can the contrast be greater than that of the beautiful girl version of King Arthur?

"Ah, are you Mr. Toyama Jiangliu? My, you are indeed handsome and have a face that belongs to a brave man."

Indra said this in a tone that was very inconsistent with his status, almost flattering.

"I heard that you killed Azidakaha? That's amazing. You know, even our "Heavenly Army" can't defeat the current three-headed dragon. I didn't expect that there are humans who can really do this..."

"The three-headed dragon now?"

Jiang Liu also found a place to sit down: "Why does it seem like there is something else behind your words?"

"Ah, this... A good man never brags about his past achievements." Emperor Shitian suddenly scratched his head embarrassedly.

Seeing him like this, Bai Yasha showed a disgusted expression and explained directly to Jiang Liu: "The three-headed dragon was not the final trial of mankind at the beginning. At the beginning, he was just an evil god, the so-called natural demon king, and naturally he was conquered by others.

And after he became the final human trial, his strength did not go beyond control... He and the other final human trials suddenly became stronger at a certain period of time, and after that, the three-headed dragon was considered a true "demon king."

"Oh?" Jiang Liu understood, "So, Emperor Shitian once conquered the three-headed dragon?"

"Yes, and it was considered a success... but the three-headed dragon made a comeback later."

Emperor Shitian looked ashamed: "It was also our fault that we failed to eliminate the germ of the demon king, which led to it becoming such a terrible disaster later."

"This is not your fault." At this time, Bai Yasha spoke for Emperor Shitian, "The final trial of mankind is such a troublesome thing... If it could be easily solved, the small garden would not be like this now."

Emperor Shitian seemed to have thought of something, and he and Bai Yasha became melancholy together, reminiscing about the glorious past years.

These two people are big guys who have existed since the creation of the Little Garden, and Emperor Shitian is one of the founders of the Little Garden City.

"Ahem, let's get down to business."

Emperor Shitian came to his senses in time, glanced at Jiang Liu who seemed to be smiling beside him, and his heart beat faster.

"Mr. Yuanshan, I was sent to the lower world this time. My main task is to "inspect" you. The heavenly world hopes to get your "attitude."

"Oh?" Jiang Liu raised his eyebrows, "I can actually enter the eyes of the "heaven"? It's really an honor..."

Emperor Shitian pretended not to hear Jiang Liu's sarcasm and drank a cup of cold tea. In his heart, he was also complaining about the "heaven" that gave him this task.

The so-called "heaven" refers to the level above three digits.

Although starting from the four-digit level is considered the "upper class", entry and exit to the middle and lower classes is subject to control.

But in fact, there is a difference between the upper and lower classes.

Among them, numbers above three digits are "heaven", and numbers below four digits can only be considered "lower realm".

As the name suggests, the heavenly realm is where gods and stars live - almost all of those who reach this level are the strongest races.

If a powerful being ranked in the three digits were to casually descend to the lower world, it would be like the God of Disobedience, and it would be very likely to cause a devastating disaster.

Therefore, generally speaking, beings with strength of three digits or above will not walk around freely in the small garden, and those with strength of four digits are already the "strongest" that everyone can see on a normal day.

Four digits is also the limit of many mortal races, so the gods and Buddhas in the "heaven" naturally have an indescribable sense of superiority when looking at the lower world - but this sense of superiority was broken by Jiang Liu.

And this is exactly why Indra came!

Chapter 987: A nominal member of the Heavenly Army

"To be honest, I'm not afraid of losing face anyway... There are many gods and Buddhas who are frightened by you, or by the fact that "someone defeated a three-headed dragon single-handedly."

Indra said quite frankly: "A long time ago, ever since the "Heavenly Army" failed to conquer the three-headed dragon, and the alliance formed by a certain community in the lower world (the predecessor of "Nameless") connecting half of the small garden could only barely seal the three-headed dragon...the heavens had already given up on conquering this final trial of mankind.

Many gods believe that the three-headed dragon represents absolute evil, which is beyond human control and that the gods cannot interfere with it. In short, the entire heaven has "surrendered" to this trial.

"But you surpassed the three-headed dragon... Although you did not really solve the final trial of mankind, at least you have surpassed the absolute evil in strength." Bai Yasha said dimly.

Jiang Liu blinked, his expression very innocent.

What? You blame me for accidentally saving the world?

Seeing him like this, Indra and Baiyaksha naturally knew that he did not take the affairs of heaven to heart, and they could not help but sigh inwardly.

"You have not lived in the small garden for a long time, and you don't understand the subtle relationship between the heaven and the underworld, but we are all old...seniors who have lived here since the city was founded and have experienced all the major events..."

Indra glanced at Bai Yasha who looked unhappy and smiled awkwardly.

"Although on the surface, the heavens should be happy that someone defeated the three-headed dragon, but in fact it is not the case. In fact, it is quite the opposite. Um... By the way, what kind of place do you think the small garden is?"

"Forehead……"

"This is the world of Shura gods and Buddhas."

Without waiting for Jiang Liu to answer, Emperor Shitian took the initiative to say: "Perhaps the mortal race accounts for the majority of the population, but the gifts they possess almost all come from the Shura gods and Buddhas and the stars. The achievements made by a few heroes are often guided by the gods.

Generally speaking, there are natural classes here. They are not seven classes separated by boundaries, but the upper and lower classes of "gods" and "humans".

In theory, the Little Garden is a world where everyone can achieve their own evolution, but in competition, there are winners and losers...

Gods and Buddhas are high above us, admiring these otherworldly people who are competing.

To the outside world, we always tell you that we impose trials and missions on mortals in order to promote human growth, and we even hope to cultivate heroes who can surpass the gods.

——In fact, gods and Buddhas disdain to be on the same level as mortals, do not want to be surpassed by mortals, and are even more unwilling to see humans go beyond their control.

In the heavens, many gods even believe that if "humans" lose respect for the gods and Buddhas, they can be abandoned!"

After finishing this long paragraph, Emperor Shitian stopped to drink a sip of tea, and Jiang Liu also fell into deep thought.

"This concept is not hard to understand... After all, the power gap between gods and mortals is too great, so it is impossible for them to communicate on an equal footing."

Jiang Liu narrowed his eyes slightly: "So, the heaven noticed me because they thought I was too annoying?"

“It can only be said that some people think so.”

Indra pondered for a long time, and finally chose a euphemistic statement.

“Of course, the mainstream opinion is still praise for you. Many groups of gods think that you can be accepted into their group, including the Heavenly Army.

Some people also think that regardless of whether you are given godhood or not, you should be allowed to come to the heaven first, because if a powerful being like you continues to stay in the lower world, it will affect the order. "

"Ha!" Jiang Liu sneered.

"Haha." Indra forced a smile.

Even Bai Yasha showed a look of contempt... After all, no one is a fool.

The gods' invitation to Jiang Liu to join may not be out of good intentions, but it may be more of a "close surveillance" intention.

Moreover, what does "affecting order" mean?

It's nothing more than that he looks down on Jiang Liu from the bottom of his heart. If you don't believe it, just look at Bai Yasha. This lord just stays in the lower world and pretends to be a god. Who dares to say anything about him?

Moreover, if Jiang Liu accepted the divinity, he would be a "god" instead of a "human", and in a sense he would no longer be a threat to the heavens.

Bai Yasha, who was in a similar situation to Jiang Liu, let out a breath, calmed down, and said to Jiang Liu: "You have accomplished what all the gods and Buddhas cannot do, and you did it as a 'human' without any help from the gods. This proves that 'humans can surpass gods'.

Before this, four digits were the limit for mortal races, but your power is already equivalent to three digits, which is not inferior to the main gods of many groups of gods, and is even more powerful.

And this is something that many... one could say most gods and Buddhas do not want to see."

"Whether they like it or not, I'm here." Jiang Liu rarely showed a hint of madness, sneering, "If you're unhappy, just come find me!"

Although he had "hid" away before, it was only because he was afraid of trouble, and it did not mean that he was really afraid of the so-called group of gods in heaven.

What's the matter? We can just break up!

The three-headed dragon can make millions of gods helpless and disturb the peace of the entire box garden. Can't Jiang Liu do it?

"Of course we know that you have the confidence. After all, you are an existence that has surpassed absolute evil with your strength."

Emperor Shitian was helpless when he saw this: “Although they are not without radical ideas, they have basically been suppressed by us old guys. Besides, you should not care about those small characters.

However, your existence cannot be concealed. Since the heavens have learned of your existence, there must be a result... even if it is just a perfunctory one."

Jiang Liu wanted to mock again, but when he saw Emperor Shitian's sincere eyes, he hesitated.

"Then what do you think we should do?"

"Even if it's just in name only...how about joining the 'Sky Army'?"

"No."
