My family runs an adventurer's guild.

This is a cozy and beautiful bedroom that is both luxurious and elegant, yet full of cute girlish style – carved and inlaid walnut wood tables and chairs, an exquisite soft bed with pink gauze curtains, a full-length dressing mirror with gilded frames, cream-colored wallpaper with gorgeous patterns, mosaic animal murals on the ceiling, and soft cushions in the shape of various animals and fruits on the carpet.

Several beautiful women dressed in loose pajamas were sitting on the floor, enjoying fragrant black tea and exquisite pastries. Meanwhile, Phily, who had been ordered to maintain the posture of an orange cat, lay somewhat dejectedly at their legs, munching on dried fish and licking milk from a small dish.

—According to Jenny, the half-elf housekeeper by Princess Catherine's side, "How can just any strange man step into the boudoir of an unmarried girl? If it were a furry pet, then it could be brought in..." So, Phil had no choice but to obediently become a pet cat again, crawling in on all fours, and incidentally being petted by a group of beauties for their amusement... Hmm, it doesn't seem like such a bad deal, does it?

"...Thank you all for your innovation, which has brought unprecedented development opportunities to our Lord's Church!"

"Morley, the priestess of the Temple of Sleep in Totoro Town, a young woman with a round face and long blonde hair in pajamas, said with a smile."

Her voice, like a harp played by an elf, filled the room, exceptionally melodious and clear, carrying a sacred atmosphere. However, paired with the loose, light blue floral pajamas Molly wore, it also gave off a languid feeling.

—As a pastor of the Church of Sleep, long skirts and robes are heretical! Only pajamas are the proper attire for a Sleep God pastor!!!

However, it is said that there is a debate within the Church of Hypnos between those who prefer to wear pajamas and those who prefer to sleep naked... This Pastor Molly is clearly a member of the pajama faction.

Moreover, from Phil's low-angle perspective as a cat, it is very clear that she appears to be wearing nothing under her pajamas.

"...Since the release of the game Overlord, in just a few short months, the number of our Lord's followers has doubled! And the monthly donations and service fees received have increased twentyfold! In many towns across the country that previously had no followers or church of our Lord, merchants and nobles have been willing to donate their houses to serve as temporary temples for our Lord, inviting our Lord's priests to reside there and preach... well, so they can also play Overlord right at their doorstep. Just last month, missionaries from the church climbed the Great Cliff for the first time to begin construction of the first temple in the Western Wilderness!"

Pastor Molly's face was filled with excitement and joy, "...In addition, the major city-states of the [Lighthouse Federation] in the north and the Mermaid Islands in the east, and even the arrogant elves of the [Green Forest Kingdom] in the south, have all sent formal or informal envoys to invite us to go and preach!"

Chapter 203, Let's Prepare for a New Adventure! (Part Two)

Although the Sleeping God "Mengmeng" Church, which was established only twenty years ago, was the first true god in the Golden Dragon Kingdom to ignite the divine fire and raise the divine throne, and was also the original form of the Sleeping God Mengmeng, and had a strong bond with the Golden Dragon Clan in the past (the relationship between master and magical pet), it received strong support and funding from the Ingram Dynasty dragon clan rulers in the Golden Dragon Kingdom from the very beginning.

However, religious beliefs don't spread as quickly as commodities. One either uses force, like the desert gods, to spread their faith through massive conquests, or one takes a patient, persistent approach, like Jesus and Buddha, diligently spreading their message year after year.

—It took two centuries from the crucifixion of Jesus to the establishment of Christianity as the state religion of the Roman Empire. The spread of Buddhism was even longer, taking three hundred years from the Buddha's enlightenment to Ashoka's establishment of Buddhism as the state religion of India, and another three hundred years for it to spread to China.

Unfortunately, the Church of Hypnos lacked both strong military support (its clergy alone indicated its inability to fight) and historical depth, being a relatively new organization. Furthermore, the financial and economic support provided by the Golden Dragon Kingdom to this small church was unlikely to be particularly generous. Therefore, until Phil released the fantasy-themed live-action holographic VR game *Overlord*, the Church of Hypnos's entire influence in the Golden Dragon Kingdom consisted of only a dozen or so temples that doubled as inns and insomnia treatment centers, a few dozen perpetually half-awake, half-asleep priests, and a few tens of thousands of sleepy followers…

As for the Church of Hypnos, which is currently a nascent religious group outside the Golden Dragon Kingdom, it has absolutely no influence whatsoever.

The Church of Hypnos is naturally not satisfied with the current state of its church organization, which consists of only a few members. However, the problem is that in this world where gods compete for faith, which church has not gone through hundreds or even thousands of years to develop into a prominent one?

As a newcomer among the gods who has only held the throne for twenty years, it's already quite good that the Dormouse Girl "Mengmeng" was able to grab this share of faith!

This is because there is no other being vying with her for the divine authority of sleep, and almost every mortal needs to sleep.

Otherwise, how could a group of super lazy pastors who spend all their time sleeping spread the faith so quickly?

So... everyone, please bring your blankets and pillows and continue your afternoon nap!

However, with the sudden emergence of the novel adventure of "dreaming of another world" and the subsequent creation of the game "Overlord," the Church of Hypnos experienced explosive expansion. While even those who weren't Hypnos followers could enter the Temple of Hypnos and dream of another world if they were willing to pay, Hypnos followers enjoyed better VIP treatment: for example, they could enter "Overlord" while sleeping at home, and enjoy priority in queuing when there were not enough beds in the Temple of Hypnos...

More importantly, with the dream game in Overlord, or more precisely, with the dream communication function in Overlord, those priests who spend ten months of the year locked in bed can finally start preaching and recruiting people in their dreams just by lying down!

As a result, with the increasing popularity of the otherworldly adventure game "Overlord," the number of believers in the god of sleep has also been increasing day by day.

Moreover, with the newly released flagship product, the dream game "Overlord," the Church of Sleep, which had not even completed its network of outlets within the Golden Dragon Kingdom, may even achieve leapfrog development and directly go abroad to spread the faith of Lord Sleep Dream to the Mermaid Islands in the Eastern Ocean, the Green Forest Kingdom in the south ruled by elves, and the Lighthouse Federation in the north ruled by humans!

Faced with such a bright future, even the Sleep God Priest, who prided himself on being lazy and fond of sleeping and seemed indifferent to fame and fortune, couldn't help but get excited!

"...Ahem, Pastor Molly, regarding the Church of Hypnos's missionary work abroad, my father and I both feel that we should put it on hold for now."

Princess Catherine, the Golden Dragon Princess, coughed with feigned maturity, pouring a bucket of cold water on Pastor Molly, who was clearly overly excited. "...After all, the Church of Sleep is not even among the top three churches in the country...Moreover, with the current number of pastors the church has, it is still far from enough to build a temple in every town in our country, so where would we find extra manpower to send abroad?"

"...Uh, that seems to make sense. The church is indeed very short-staffed right now. Even some novice pastors who haven't even completed their training have been sent out to preside over temples. If we send more people abroad to preach, several small temples that have just been built in the country will be left without anyone to preside over them..."

After listening to Princess Catherine's advice, Pastor Molly thought it over carefully and agreed wholeheartedly.

On the one hand, as the Church of Hypnos's biggest supporter, the opinion of the Ingram Dragon Clan royal family cannot be ignored; on the other hand, given the Church of Hypnos's current sudden expansion and unstable foundation, it does indeed lack the foundation and strength for large-scale expansion.

Before this year, the entire Church of Hypnos only had seventy or eighty priests, including apprentices, and a total of eleven temples. Now, with the booming popularity of the game "Overlord," the number of Hypnos temples in the Golden Dragon Kingdom has doubled and one-and-a-half in three months, with as many as sixteen new temples built. In addition, the existing Hypnos temples are also being expanded, making it difficult to meet the demand for Hypnos priests.

Although the Church of Hypnos has grown considerably, with a large influx of newly converted believers whose piety is generally quite high, selecting and recruiting qualified pastoral apprentices from among them, training them in the magic of Hypnos, and ensuring they are well-versed in the church's scriptures and capable of presiding over even the lowest level of temple will take at least one or two years. This is far from being a quick fix.

In this transitional period, the Church of Hypnos should prioritize training more capable personnel as soon as possible.

As for expanding overseas, that seems too early for now—we haven't even firmly established ourselves in the domestic faith stronghold yet!

Moreover, as the origin of the game "Overlord", the Totoro Town Sleeping God Temple, which is presided over by Molly, has recently been undergoing a large-scale expansion project, preparing to increase the number of beds to one thousand, in order to accommodate more believers and customers to come and pray (sleep).

Moreover, according to internal discussions within the Church of Hypnos, once the temple expansion in Totoro Town is completed, the Church of Hypnos's headquarters will be moved from the capital, Thousand Sails City, to Totoro Town. Compared to the capital, where numerous churches are located, Totoro Town is dominated by the Church of Hypnos, which can better exert its influence there.

If Totoro Town were to become the holy city of the God of Sleep, the very name itself would sound perfectly in line with divine authority and doctrine.

—Whether it's a dragon or a cat, they are both lazy creatures who love to sleep...

Faced with such a momentous historical event, Pastor Molly certainly didn't have much energy to pursue such superfluous and trivial matters as promoting overseas missions.

Chapter 204, Let's Prepare for a New Adventure! (Part 3)

Princess Catherine, the Golden Dragon, breathed a slight sigh of relief upon seeing that Pastor Molly had listened to and accepted her advice.

In fact, it was her father, Alaric the Dragon King, who decided to suspend overseas missionary work and focus on domestic affairs.

—Under normal circumstances, a ruler of a kingdom would be happy to promote their country's customs, religion, and culture overseas, just as the United States regards Hollywood as a symbol of "soft power." Otherwise, there wouldn't be a concept like "cultural victory" in the Civilization game.

The problem is that, under the current circumstances, the Church of Hypnos's missionary work is tied to "Dreaming of Another World," or more specifically, the game *Overlord*. It's impossible to force the Church of Hypnos to build temples abroad while refusing to provide *Overlord* game login services. If this happens, a bunch of foreign players will appear in the *Overlord* world. What if they act recklessly and cause trouble?

As the number of players continues to increase, and as their initial awkwardness upon entering the other world gradually dissipates as they become more familiar with the environment, the game world of Overlord is already showing signs of becoming somewhat chaotic.

Fortunately, the current Overlord time-travel game basically still adopts a "real-name system." If a follower of the god of sleep causes trouble, the priests can find out by praying to the god of sleep. If a non-believer causes trouble, since non-believers can only "go online" while sleeping in the temple, the temple name and bed number of each player cannot be hidden, and the "administrator" can find out at any time.

Therefore, for players of the Golden Dragon Kingdom, the state apparatus of the Golden Dragon Kingdom still has a deterrent effect, restraining them from acting too recklessly.

If necessary, the Dragon King Alaric can also issue orders to the players, requiring them to go to another world to carry them out.

Even if players find themselves in another world in their dreams, they are still subjects of His Majesty the Dragon King!

However, if it were foreign players located overseas, the Dragon King Alaric would be completely helpless. What if they caused trouble in the dream game, or even received instructions from the rulers of those countries, driven by a jealous mentality of "if my family doesn't have it, your family can't have it either," and deliberately ruined the starting village in the Overlord world?

Regarding this issue, the cat Firi and his mistress Lulutia shared similar thoughts—just managing to fool Ainz Ooal Gown, the ultimate boss, into obediently becoming the village chief of the starting area was already enough of a headache for them. If a group of malicious and lawless foreign players were to arrive, then the already precarious and problematic starting area of ​​Overlord would truly be in danger of being ruined.

Therefore, it's best to hold off on promoting Overlord until a reliable solution is found.

Thus, a preliminary consensus has been reached among relevant parties regarding the issue of restrictions on the promotion of dream travel.

But then, a new problem needs to be addressed:

The "starter village" in the world of "Overlord" is almost finished. Where should we choose for the next other world we travel to?

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

According to the initial plan formulated by Firi and Lulutia, after the "starter village" in the world of Overlord is completed, there will be two branching options. The first branching option is to find a low-magic fantasy world where a large-scale war breaks out, so that players can learn and adapt to small-team adventures through the "starter village" and then further practice higher-level strategy games, learning how to use troops to fight and govern territories.

Of course, a real-world power game and war game can only accommodate a very limited number of players. Therefore, this "strategy game" will not be open to the general public, but will be the exclusive privilege of the Golden Dragon Kingdom's royal family and a select group of noble children.

At that time, Phili thought the world of "A Song of Ice and Fire (Game of Thrones)" was a very suitable strategic game board—the continent of Westeros divided into seven kingdoms, a low-magic world where knights roamed freely, a turbulent world of warring lords, and native gods whose power was so weak that they were on the verge of extinction... If one could travel there, it seemed easy to conquer a territory and then conduct all sorts of military, political, and social system experiments.

However, after gaining a general understanding of the world of "A Song of Ice and Fire (Game of Thrones)," King Alaric, the Golden Dragon King, expressed his objection: the world of "A Song of Ice and Fire" is too low in magic. On the continent of Westeros, armies do not fight with magic, there are not many powerful spellcasters among the people, and there are hardly any monsters to be found in the wild—except for the White Walkers and wights north of the Wall, and Queen Daenerys's three dragons.

Moreover, the only intelligent race in that world is humans—even the Others and wights can be considered variants of humans.

But in the Golden Dragon Kingdom, mages and druids are everywhere, ogres and kobolds are as rare as dogs, and all sorts of intelligent races are as numerous as the stars, from oviparous to viviparous, from marine life to land life... humans are just more numerous.

Therefore, if players try to apply the military and political experience they have gained in the world of "A Song of Ice and Fire," which is only applicable to "pure humans" and "basically no magic" natural social environments, to the practice in the Golden Dragon Kingdom, they will probably run into big problems!

— Just like a certain US military unit that got used to fighting counterinsurgency in the Middle East by dividing into countless small units, when it was ordered to withdraw and return to the domestic training ground, it found that it had forgotten how to conduct positional warfare and regular warfare, resulting in the joke of an elite division being defeated by a single regiment.

Instead of this, it would be better to expand the map directly into the "Nazarick starting village" of the Overlord world, allowing players to recruit troops and participate in wars between the countries surrounding the Kingdom of Nazarick, thereby gaining military and political experience in a magical environment. Alternatively, one could discuss with Ainz Ooal Gown to grant some wastelands and villages within the Kingdom of Nazarick, allowing certain special players to practice their land reclamation and construction skills.

—Compared to the world of "A Song of Ice and Fire", the world of "Overlord" is more similar to the actual environment of the Golden Dragon Kingdom.

Clearly, His Majesty's words cannot be ignored, especially since he is a major client and a big spender, and what he said makes a lot of sense.

So, Phili and the silver dragon Lulutia readily agreed and expanded the map in the Overlord game world, creating the [Ri-Estize Kingdom Civil War Dungeon] and the [Dragon Kingdom Defense Bloodbath Dungeon]. They may also release [Lord's Daily Dungeon] and [New Kingdom Birth Dungeon] in the future, thus replacing the strategy game and territory management game functions of the Game of Thrones world.

Chapter 205, Let's Prepare for a New Adventure! (Part Four)

Then, there is another branch option, which is to find a modern world where magic and technology coexist, and send the "player students" from the Golden Dragon Kingdom there to learn about modern Earth's science, technology and socio-economic knowledge, just like the government-sponsored students sent abroad during the Qing Dynasty in modern times.

Initially, Phil planned to enter the world of Harry Potter and have the bumpkins from the Golden Dragon Kingdom audit the Muggle Studies class at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, serving as their "modern Earth common sense training class" and "pre-school" before they could study at a modern Earth school.

(In the Harry Potter world, ordinary people who do not possess magical abilities are referred to as Muggles by wizards.)

This idea seems good at first glance. After all, Harry Potter is a relatively low-magic world. There are no gods like Gaia and Alaya-vijnana in the Type-Moon world who are omniscient and omnipotent, controlling everything and treating everyone as puppets, acting as the mastermind behind the scenes.

Meanwhile, leaders of the "white path," such as Headmaster Dumbledore and Minister for Magic Fudge, are relatively easy to talk to and don't seem to have too much ambition—at least, the big figures in the wizarding world of Harry Potter don't seem like the type to fantasize about invading the Golden Dragon Kingdom.

Therefore, as long as certain exchanges of benefits and compromises are made, it shouldn't be a problem for the "player students" from the Golden Dragon Kingdom to enter Hogwarts. Once these "player students" graduate from the Muggle Studies program at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the modern society outside the Harry Potter magical world will be a perfect opportunity for these learners from the magical Middle Ages to study and explore the politics, technology, society, and economics of modern industrialized society, and to select useful elements to build their own homeland.

At first glance, the entire operation seemed to be quite proper and smooth, but upon closer inspection, Phil discovered that there seemed to be a problem!

The problem lies in the Muggle Studies class at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry itself. If the young wizards in the Harry Potter world could be no different from ordinary people in modern society, and even live a normal life in the Muggle world, simply by taking the Muggle Studies class, then why do most wizards in the Harry Potter world appear so arrogant, ignorant, and out of place in the vast world outside the wizarding world?

The answer is simple: the Muggle Studies course itself contains many fallacies. First of all, it is an elective course that mainly teaches students about the social structure and lifestyle of Muggles, as well as how to view and treat Muggles correctly, with a focus on how to communicate with Muggles properly.

In other words, it only teaches wizards how to treat Muggles who enter the wizarding world, rather than instructing wizards to move to the Muggle world.

To expect that Hogwarts' "Muggle Studies" class would successfully adapt the medieval bumpkins of the Golden Dragon Kingdom to modern Earth society is like sending a young person from the first generation of the People's Republic of China in the 1960s or 70s, whose minds were filled with class struggle ideology before the reform and opening up, to learn how to study and live in a major city in developed Western countries with a booklet on how to receive foreign guests—this is almost certainly a laughable attempt! It's a classic case of "trying to catch fish by climbing a tree"!

Secondly, Hogwarts School's Muggle Studies Department was founded during the Dark Ages, the birthplace of both Hogwarts and the British wizarding world. The wizarding world at that time was far from peaceful; it was rife with violence and constant warfare. Under the influence of the Church, hatred and opposing factions existed between Muggles and wizards in England. Many young wizards were burned at the stake by the sensitive Muggles and the Church after their first display of magical talent. Even Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry itself was initially established by the "Big Four" to house orphaned wizards and provide refuge from war.

Therefore, the Muggle Studies course at Hogwarts School was established by the wizards of that time to help future generations understand their enemies. The course inevitably contained countless contents of contempt and insults towards Muggles, in order to belittle the enemy and boost the morale of their own side.

As time passed and generations went by, the wizarding world and Muggle society gradually separated. The wizards' hatred for Muggles gradually faded, but their arrogance and contempt remained, and they generally regarded non-magical Muggles as foolish and uncouth.

If a wizard is enthusiastic about the culture and technology of modern society, he will not only fail to gain recognition and praise, but will also be ostracized and ridiculed.

To give a similar example, it's like how conservative Confucian scholars in late Qing Dynasty China, who were well-versed in the Four Books and Five Classics, despised and were hostile to modern Western science and technology, denouncing it as "strange tricks and frivolous skills" and "corrupting people's hearts."

To make matters worse, the British Ministry of Magic in the Harry Potter series, on the one hand, tried to hide the existence of magic from Muggles, such as using the Oblivion Charm to make Muggles forget everything they see, and using the Expel Charm to hide various wizarding buildings—which is why Muggles cannot see Hogwarts Castle. On the other hand, it also blocked the spread of Muggle culture among the wizarding community.

As a result, many wizards appear friendly towards Muggles, but some find them annoying and troublesome. Most wizards have virtually no understanding of Muggle society, and some have never even interacted with a Muggle in their entire lives. When they try to imitate Muggles, it often results in comical imitations, such as not even knowing how to wear a zippered tracksuit. Even the Weasleys in the Harry Potter series, considered unconventional "Muggle enthusiasts" in the wizarding world, have numerous flawed perceptions of modern society and would find it difficult to live a normal life without magic.

Given this environment, it's easy to imagine how little authenticity and practical value the "Muggle Studies" course, concocted by the British wizarding community, can possibly have. Not to mention that this is merely an elective course designed to easily pass students, with even less stringent requirements—any wizard, not even necessarily Muggle-born, can apply to be a professor of "Muggle Studies" as long as they've lived in the Muggle world for a year or two!

The professor himself is only half-baked, and it's an obscure elective course. Only God knows how much knowledge the inattentive students can actually grasp.

Moreover, the textbook for the Muggle Studies course at Hogwarts School, "Life and Social Customs of British Muggle Families," is not only riddled with errors but also seriously outdated, with its main content written in the late 19th and early 20th centuries... so many wizards are unaware that humans have already successfully landed on the moon.

Therefore, if the "player students" of the Golden Dragon Kingdom were to study Muggle Studies at Hogwarts School to learn about modern human society, they would probably end up producing a bunch of bizarre characters that are both laughable and pathetic...

Chapter 206, Let's Prepare for a New Adventure! (Part 5)

On the other hand, during the last audience, after Firi gave a general overview of the Harry Potter world to the dragon royal family members of the Golden Dragon Kingdom, King Alaric also expressed some doubts about sending "player students" to the Harry Potter world.

However, his concerns stemmed from something else entirely—King Alaric was more interested in understanding the politics, history, economy, and laws of the modern civilized world than in science and technology; he wanted to know how those countries with tens or even hundreds of millions of people were built and operated!

As a legendary golden dragon of noble blood and immense power, King Alaric frequently encountered various troubles and often felt powerless while ruling his Golden Dragon Kingdom of three million people. Meanwhile, on modern Earth in various other worlds, many kingdoms with tens or even hundreds of millions of people were managed efficiently by mortal rulers. Therefore, he was deeply curious about this and wanted to learn from their experience.

However, while the Harry Potter world is also a magical world, it differs greatly from the social reality of the Golden Dragon Kingdom—the magical and non-magical worlds, spellcasters and ordinary people, are completely isolated! The degree of separation is even more severe than in the Type-Moon world. So much so that while modern technological knowledge from that world is one thing, modern political, economic, academic, and social management knowledge from the Muggle world is probably completely inapplicable to a magical world!

After all, the political and economic system of the Muggle world in the Harry Potter world is basically equivalent to that developed in a world without magic.

However, in the Golden Dragon Kingdom and the fantasy world it inhabits, spellcasters and mortals have always lived together. Although there are reclusive sorcerers, there are many more powerful figures who seek fame and fortune and rule over mortals.

Under these circumstances, King Alaric could not possibly demand that all priests, wizards, druids, and even the monsters of the wild isolate themselves in the magical world like in Harry Potter. Nor was he willing to relinquish his rule over mortals, or rather, the "Muggle world."

Therefore, what His Majesty the Dragon King truly wants to know is how the social, economic, legal, and political systems of those giant nations with tens or even hundreds of millions of people operate in a complex civilized society where some individuals possess extraordinary power and can bestow great strength upon themselves.

Clearly, the Harry Potter world cannot provide King Alaric with the answers he seeks, nor can it offer any relevant examples—whether in the arrogant and sparsely populated wizarding world or in the Muggle world where the truth of the world has been concealed from beginning to end.

In other modern and futuristic Earths, there are also various problems and flaws, even risks that could affect the Golden Dragon Kingdom itself!

For example, if Ferry chose the world of Cthulhu, he was worried that the "player transmigrators" sent from the Golden Dragon Kingdom might be infected and become "foreign objects" across the plane, and that even the goddess of sleep, Princess Dream, might be found by some indescribable thing.

There's also the Warhammer 40 world, where evil gods roam everywhere and starships fill the sky. The political system and technology there are both too advanced and too incomplete. Researching technology relies on archaeology, and industrial production relies on shamanistic rituals. Such bizarre and twisted things are simply impossible for international students from the Golden Dragon Kingdom to learn.

As for the worlds of "Twilight" and "The Vampire Diaries," they are even less relevant than the world of "Harry Potter."

After much thought, Phil's limited cat-like mind could only come up with one method that might be barely feasible.

Although that world also has many troubles and flaws, it is relatively the least bad choice.

"...Looking left and right, it seems I still have no choice but to go to the Marvel universe again. I'll have to talk to the Ancient One in Kamar-Taj, meow!"

He said this to Princess Catherine, the Golden Dragon: "...the world where I was electrocuted and old Kunka was publicly castrated..."

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

The Marvel Universe is a world of conflict between superheroes and supervillains, a wonderful world where science fiction and fantasy coexist.

Here you'll find a genius scientist flying around in steel armor, a terrifying behemoth who transforms into a green giant when enraged, a high school vigilante skilled at spinning webs and bungee jumping like a spider, a mysterious bald white female mage, and a god prince from another land who loves hammers...

Of course, there are also countless ambitious people constantly plotting to destroy or conquer the world, various alternative races vying with humanity for living space, and cosmic-level purple-skinned powerhouses hidden beyond the stars, always coveting Earth, the blue cradle that belongs to humanity!

For extraordinary individuals, this is a wonderful world where great power is bestowed upon them, and the strong look down upon kings.

For ordinary mortals, however, this is a terrible world fraught with danger and hostility.

Given the chaotic, turbulent, and conflict-ridden backdrop, the fact that the Marvel universe has managed to develop its technological civilization to such a high level, even touching the threshold of the space age, demonstrates the soundness of its political, economic, social, and legal systems, which is clearly worthy of study and reference.

This is especially true for the Golden Dragon Kingdom, a nation of immigrants with both immortal beings and diverse races.

Compared to "A Song of Ice and Fire," which appears to be full of fantasy but is still largely about the struggles of mortals, the Marvel universe, which at first glance seems like science fiction, is actually more like a modernized version of that "sword and magic" world!
