Qin Bin shook his head and said, "I have the basic knowledge of how to use power and laws, but I don't have the personal subjective experience. Well, at present, I am probably only suitable for high-level players to fight low-level players. If I fight a life-and-death battle at the same level, I will be at a disadvantage."

"This can be slowly made up for through training or actual combat. It's enough at this point." Edith nodded and said, "I am completely relieved now. We just need to ensure that there is still an information gap with the Protoss. If we maintain this for three to five years, we will be invincible and slowly turn passivity into initiative. Junyu, China will have to take more of the blame for you."

Edith's meaning was very simple, which was to try her best to make the world believe that Qin Bin's power and even all kinds of magic came from Qin Bin's hometown, the motherland of China.

This will reduce Qin Bin's importance and allow the Protoss' lackeys to feed back more wrong judgments to the Protoss, so that the Protoss can maintain the original rhythm to start a new round of World War games.

Otherwise, once the gods realize the importance of Qin Bin, or even that he is too dangerous, it is possible that they will overreact.

To put it bluntly, Edith was worried that the gods would send real masters to launch a surprise attack on Qin Bin.

Qin Bin certainly understood, so he nodded and said, "At present, the fact that Xiaobai and I have become stronger by relying on the elixirs of the Chinese ancient martial arts system has overshadowed the rumors that I have some unknown secret methods after Emperor Kana regained his youth. Now we just need to continue to work hard."

Edith nodded. "That's good. The remaining thing is to quickly accumulate willpower. You can spread the news that I abdicated for you, and even competed with the Dragon Princess. At the same time, spread the conspiracy theory that I actually planted the Chinese ancient martial arts system. I think that with my reputation and the Dragon Clan's reputation, as well as various fancy conspiracy theories, it is enough to detonate public opinion across the continent."

Qin Bin blinked, "Then I won't be able to step into the Forest of Life again. After all, after this, most of the life elves will look at me as if I were the murderer of my father."

"Haha... Indeed, Edith is almost a god in the eyes of the life elves. The title of 'Light of Light' was spontaneously initiated by the people. It's not surprising that they regard you, Xiaobin, as the enemy who killed your father." Xiaobai couldn't help laughing.

Edith also smiled. "My people's worship of me is, well, a little excessive. But that's why it's suitable to further ignite public opinion. The population of the Life Elves is not as large as that of humans, but there are more than 100 million of them. We can attract most of them and greatly increase the efficiency of wish collection. In addition, my fame, or infamy, in the Western Continent can also further enhance Jun Yu's fame in the Western Continent."

——She has mastered the essence of making the best use of things, and she is worthy of being the queen for hundreds of years...

While sighing in his heart, Qin Bin nodded and said, "I'll do as you say. Of course, I have to finish my work here."

"I understand. I will take care of the rest. Junyu just needs to wait for the benefits."

"Thanks a lot."

"Between you and me, there is no need to talk about this."

"Too."

Qin Bin smiled with relief.

Edith smiled back.

Chapter 214: Edith's Actions

It was not a peaceful night.

Of course, this was not a night of "this, this, that, that, that". Instead, Qin Bin, Xiaobai and Edith, who did not have much need for sleep, got together and studied the new system that combined ancient martial arts and magic all night long.

I won’t go into detail about what the harvest was.

The next morning, after breakfast, the elf girl at the immigration office brought the entry approval certificate.

Although this thing was no longer of much significance after Edith came in person, Qin Bin still accepted it and reported his itinerary according to the procedure before leaving the border town. Then, outside the border town, he, Xiaobai and Edith, who were invisible to outsiders, took off into the air and flew towards the capital of the Holy Spirit Empire.

This time, Xiaobai didn't transform into a dragon to let Qin Bin ride. The three of them flew in the air together at a very fast speed with a clear goal in mind.

Along the way, they passed through countless mountains, forests, rivers, and many giant cities. At noon, Qin Bin and his two companions, flying at the 'normal' speed of sound, arrived at the outskirts of the capital of the Holy Spirit Empire.

The capital of the Holy Spirit Empire, Saint Ina, is a super international metropolis located in the heart of the Forest of Life, with a population of nearly 10 million.

Like other cities in the Holy Spirit Empire, this is also an ecological city that almost perfectly integrates man-made objects and nature.

So whether you look at it from a distance or up close, this is a beautiful city that is pleasing to the eye.

During the period, Edith told Qin Bin that the city was built in the last era, but it underwent two expansions in the hundreds of years after she ascended the throne. Up to now, the permanent population is mainly composed of elves, with more than 380 million people, and the floating population is nearly 700 million.

The reason why there are so many mobile populations is that Santa Ina’s water, land and air transportation are very developed.

Not to mention the land and air routes, the main thing is that there is a river next to the city of Saint Ina, which starts from the Hengduan Mountains and ends at the southern sea area of ​​the Forest of Life, crossing the entire Forest of Life.

The name of this river is "Shiva", which means "nurser" or "feeder" in the Elvish language.

The narrowest part of the river is nearly 500 meters, and that is almost the Hengduan Mountains. There are no turbulent and steep sections from top to bottom of the river. This allows ships to go straight into the heart of the Forest of Life from the southern coast tens of thousands of kilometers away. After docking at the suburban port of Saint Ina, they can continue northward and finally reach the northern border of the Life Elves adjacent to the Lost Plains.

In addition, this river has many tributaries, most of which have been repaired into more ideal waterways, allowing cheaper water transportation to cover most of the important cities in the Holy Spirit Empire.

Such convenient water transportation, coupled with the already vigorously developed land transportation and the rapidly developing air transportation in the past few decades, has created three relatively safe, stable and prosperous trade lines by sea, land and air for the Holy Spirit Empire.

Because the geographical location of the Forest of Life straddles the border between the east and west of the continent, the center of the Forest of Life, the capital of the Holy Spirit Empire, Saint Ina, has basically become an international metropolis that serves as a hub for communication between the east and west continents.

After truly understanding the geographical details of the Holy Spirit Empire, Qin Bin could only sigh secretly - this is truly a place with unique Feng Shui. No wonder the Life Elves have no interest in the land outside, because as long as it is managed properly, this place can really become the most comfortable paradise.

It is also normal to look down on the "poverty" of the outside world.

Of course, no matter how superior the environment is, or how blessed one is by God, it cannot resist the depravity and corruption of human hearts.

Several hundred years ago, the Life Elves almost lost the game due to such a great start, and were almost defeated.

Don’t talk about those unnecessary things.

After approaching the city of Saint Ina, Edith originally wanted to take Qin Bin for a walk around the city. Although Qin Bin was tempted, he put the matter aside and dealt with his business first.

Edith didn't say anything about this, and took Qin Bin and Xiaobai to the Moon Temple.

The High Priest of the Moon, who is in a semi-retired state, now lives halfway up the mountain behind the Moon Temple.

The Moon Temple is located in the western suburbs of Saint Ina.

Besides, the Moon Temple is one of the two major religious organizations in the Holy Spirit Empire.

The other is the religion that believes in the Elf Goddess - Deism, also known as the Elf Goddess Church or the Elf Goddess Temple.

Speaking of the two major religious organizations in the Holy Spirit Empire, it is quite interesting.

Let's talk about the Moon Temple first. It does not worship a specific god, but the moon, which is the most primitive "nature worship".

Its structure is also very simple, a group of female priests, in the most primitive elf race 'Origin Night', that is, March 3th every year, organized, led the tribesmen to dress up to worship the moon, praying that the moon will continue to protect the elves and prosper. Other than that, there are no doctrines or rules.

In essence, this is no longer a purely religious sacrifice, but rather has the flavor of a traditional festival promotion club.

The reason for this is simply because the Moon Temple gradually rose after Edith ascended the throne, and gradually moved away from its sectarian nature and took a big step towards secularization.

The purpose, of course, is to target the natural deism that was already prevalent in the Holy Spirit Empire.

Deism is a standard sect that believes in gods. There is no need to explain the composition of the elf goddess it believes in.

Therefore, after Edith ascended the throne, she vigorously promoted folk customs and incorporated the moon worship organization, which was originally only famous in small rural areas. After transformation, she supported it to compete with natural deism.

Moon worship is actually very popular among the life elves, because basically as long as they are elves, whether they are life elves, dark elves, elemental elves, etc., there is a legend circulating in the tribe - 'One night in the ancient times so far away that no one knows how long, the elves were born on this land under the shining moon and praised by the world...'

In addition, the elves have a long lifespan, which means that many of the older generation of elves have actually seen the so-called "gods". Because of this, they really lack respect for the so-called "gods". This leads to the fact that most elves from top to bottom are more willing to believe that they are the "sons of the world" rather than the people created by the elven goddess who obviously has interests in mind.

Of course, if Edith had not continuously suppressed and sacrificed the Moon Temple for hundreds of years, the natural religion might not have had much impact on the older generation of elves, but it could have influenced the new generation.

But when Edith launched the more secular Moon Temple, coupled with the continuous rise of secular imperial power ideas, this greatly compressed the living space of natural religion.

According to Edith, although there are still many believers in the Church of Natural Deity, the majority of believers are not elves, but humans from the Western Continent and some half-elves.

Basically, if we put in a little more effort, we can drive the Natural Cult out of the Forest of Life.

Before landing outside the Moon Temple, Qin Bin looked at Edith in a daze, "In that future, did you really attack the Natural God Cult, which caused the body possession crisis?"

Xiaobai, who was suspended in the air with Qin Bin, also looked at Edith, who was also stabilizing herself and suspended in the air with them, "It seems that your struggle has been exposed."

Edith said calmly, "The bottom line of the God Clan needs someone to test it. It just so happens that my identity and the internal environment of the Holy Spirit Empire are suitable for me to do this."

Qin Bin paused for a moment, then said, "It seems that faith is very important to those so-called gods."

"Yes." Edith nodded. "At the same time, it is also confirmed that even if the gods cannot survive for the time being, they still have many ways to influence our world. Also, the gods are more adept at playing tricks than expected. The reason why I was trapped in that altar in the future is that there was a traitor around me.

Normally, these hidden troops, who were planted at some unknown time, would not be easily mobilized. However, when I really wanted to wipe out the Natural God Cult, they all jumped out.

To be honest, I was really disappointed at first. My former loyal followers changed their minds so suddenly."

Edith's tone was very calm, but Qin Bin and Xiaobai could sense that the queen was still upset.

Qin Bin asked, "Have you eliminated the hidden danger?"

Edith shook her head. "It's still useful to keep it."

"A good megaphone..." Qin Bin thought for a moment, but then said, "Although it's too late to say it now, but in your situation, it's really not suitable for you to abdicate."

Edith said, "If you, Junyu, didn't have that system, I wouldn't abdicate."

Qin Bin thought of something, "Could it be..."

Edith smiled. "An emperor who was hostile to the gods abdicated for love. No matter how unbelievable this is, it is a fact that he openly gave up control of the Living Empire. It is also what the gods want to see the most."

Qin Bin nodded, "Sure enough. Then who did you choose as the new emperor?"

Edith said, "Outside, Arya is a descendant of the Moon Chaser (the surname of the previous Elf King). In fact, she is a 'Holy Blessed One' like me.

As long as one is a 'Holy Blessed One', he is a firm believer in the 'Son of the World' and has the blessing of the world, and is not affected by mental magic.

So far, the only person who knows that she is the Holy Blessed One is the High Priest of the Moon, besides us.

And Alia, whether in the past or in the future, is a like-minded person who can stand the test of time, and she has talent and courage that are not inferior to mine.

To be honest, even without the matter of the Gods, Alia is a qualified successor that can make me very satisfied. "

The surname "Holy Blessed One" is not as simple as the commonly known inherited surname among the life elves.

"The Holy Blessed One" in the Elvish language means "the elf who has received the most sacred blessings and protection." The "most sacred" here is of course not a god, but the world represented by the World Tree.

To be specific, the life elves have two ways of reproduction.

Chapter 215: High Priest

The conventional ones are the viviparous ones like humans, and are also the crystallization of life after the union of adult elves male and female at the level of biological reproduction.

The other is the 'Son of the World' that evolved from the fruit of the World Tree.

According to legend, the World Tree blooms and bears fruit every several thousand years, but the number of fruits is only a few, and not every fruit can evolve into a 'Son of the World'.

In other words, it would take at least several thousand years for a 'Holy Protector' to appear among the Life Elves.

Qin Bin said with interest, "Although I don't know the details of your plan, it seems like this is a big trick."

Edith shook her head and said, "Actually, it's not a big trick. It's mainly to slow down the Protoss' targeting of me and throw out more smoke bombs. After all, I went too far in the past few hundred years. I was basically in direct confrontation with the Protoss. It was nothing at first, but now it doesn't meet your current needs, so I can only find a way to remedy it."

Edith knew very well that Qin Bin needed time, even if the time required would not be too much.

Therefore, her real purpose in doing this was to proactively reduce the intensity of the conflict between herself and the Protoss, so that the Protoss would not have too few options and would not have to play their cards clearly all of a sudden when they were in an unpredictable situation.

As long as they are not forced to reveal their cards all at once, the Protoss have many means at their disposal. Given their usual arrogance, the possibility of using extreme means will be greatly reduced.

This creates an artificial buffer stage.

As long as Qin Bin grows rapidly during this buffer period, by the time the gods react, everything will be beyond their control.

After roughly understanding Edith's meaning, Qin Bin was also quite moved. Besides being impressed by Edith's meticulous mind and decisive actions, he was also somewhat embarrassed. After all, these arrangements had some of the flavor of "everything is for you".

At this time, Xiao Bai on the side said, "I understand the general situation, but why did my grandfather let Xiao Bin go to see the Moon High Priest? It seems that there is no need, right?"

Edith said, "The Moon High Priest is older than the Dragon King. He is the real elder in our circle. When the Dragon King was young, he was also instructed by the High Priest. The High Priest is half of the Dragon King's teacher. I think you can understand what I mean, right?"

Qin Bin and Xiao Bai also understood after hearing it.

Xiao Bai even said, "It seems my grandfather is not the eldest..."

"No, the clear leader has always been the Dragon Emperor, but the wisdom of the elders cannot be ignored. At the same time, the high priest has a better understanding of the magic knowledge from ancient times, from several epochs ago. Needless to say, how valuable this is to Jun Yu."

"I see... Let's go in first. I can't wait any longer."

"it is good."

After Edith nodded, she landed with Qin Bin and Xiaobai. Edith, who did not hide her identity, was soon greeted with worship greetings from the temple priests or occasional visitors.

Edith smiled back very gently, then took Qin Bin and Xiaobai straight into the main hall of the temple, and from the main hall into the side hall, and then walked several hundred meters up the mountain through pavilions and corridors, and came to a small courtyard on the mountainside with a beautiful environment.

The courtyard here is beautifully maintained, and it seems that the older generation likes this style very much.

This was true of the old dean and the high priest as well.

In the courtyard, there is a two-story building that blends perfectly with the natural ecology. It is estimated that the area of ​​each floor is about 200 square meters.

When Edith brought Qin Bin and Xiaobai to the courtyard, the gate of the courtyard and the main door on the first floor of the building in the courtyard opened automatically.

"The high priest must have been waiting for a long time. Let's go in."

"Ah."

The three of them passed through the small courtyard in front and quickly entered the first floor of the building.

After entering the house, what caught Qin Bin and Xiaobai's eyes was that, apart from a very ordinary set of sofas and coffee table in front of the fireplace, the entire first floor was filled with densely packed bookshelves, with all kinds of books neatly arranged on the shelves.
