Original God, I am the only designated Red King God Envoy of Xumi

"Lie down and rest for a while. This is probably because you were trapped in the ruins for too long. After all, the environment in the ruins is very complicated. It's a blessing in disguise that you were able to get out alive."

"..." After hearing this, Falushan fell silent. She lay on the hard bed, looking at the ceiling, wondering what she was thinking.

If it is true as Amber said, a hundred years have passed in a flash, and all the people I am familiar with have grown old, then how should I face it?

Falushan didn't know that for a moment she actually wished she was still in the ruins, and everything before her was just an illusion presented by the ruins, but it was not real.

"Such symptoms may last for several months to a year... In short, why don't you just stay here for the time being and recuperate." Amber adjusted her posture slightly in the chair. Aji was massaging Amber's shoulders with her small hands.

"Then the House of Religion..." Falusan seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted by Amber.

"I'll have someone report this to the disciplinary officer, and someone will come to confirm your identity and explain the situation to you."

"Your current physical condition is not suitable for running around anymore, so just rest well first - you may not feel it, but your body is actually showing some signs of malnutrition."

As she spoke, Amber handed a piece of date palm candy to Falusan - she prepared this to relieve the fatigue caused by long-term thinking. Falusan subconsciously took it and put it into her mouth.

After many years, the sweetness filled her mouth again, and Falushan suddenly felt her body feel better.

Amber's proposal was reasonable, and Farusan had nothing to refuse for the moment. She thought for a moment and spoke again.

"Then...I'll pay you later."

"I don't need any compensation. Just help me design the drip irrigation system. That would be a big favor."

"……Row."

The two people and Zhen Ling in the house were still talking about something, but outside the house, the scene was completely different. The title of "Red King's Envoy" seemed to have really penetrated into everyone's heart. From time to time, someone looked at the house where Amber was, and the conviction in the eyes of the Chi Nian clan members was even stronger.

Those who had gathered near the experimental site have dispersed, some of them shocked, some excited.

——It seems that something new is about to happen.

Chapter 33: Timeliness of Knowledge

In the wide gully between the upper and lower wind erosion lands, there lived a huge clan - the Shayeh clan.

The Shayih clan is also considered an old clan, having existed for more than a hundred years. Since they initially occupied and firmly held this land, it was only a matter of time for them to develop to where they are today.

This oasis is probably the largest one in the desert. It is connected to an underground river originating from the rainforest, and the water supply is almost endless - at least it has lasted for more than a hundred years and has not shown any signs of decline.

But in recent years... the oasis's water reserves have visibly decreased, which is a big problem.

It was probably because the seven or eight hundred people's arbitrary takings and losses had placed too heavy a burden on the oasis. However, even if the Shayeh clan had made reasonable plans, according to the judgment made by the scholars previously invited, it would still begin to shrink again within five years.

In the chief's room, the strong man was looking at the report in front of him and sighing continuously. His name was Zoldyk, and he was the tenth-generation leader of the clan. The problem of the shrinking oasis was now weighing on him, a situation that no previous chief had ever encountered - this also meant that he had no precedent to refer to.

The Sando clan had previously sent him three doses of medicine, two of which he kept, and for the other one he used his connections to find a reliable scholar to analyze. The analysis report has now been delivered to him, and the result was nothing.

One of the potions contains a gel containing grass elemental power, which is very beneficial to the growth of plants. Experiments have shown that it can greatly shorten the growth cycle of plants. A date palm seedling can grow to an adult in less than half a year. However, this puts a considerable burden on the plants. Plants that are treated with this potion will need a long time to "improve themselves". If used on crops such as wheat, they will grow quickly but will not produce grains. If used on vegetables, it will have a great impact on the quality of the leaves, making them difficult to eat directly.

The other agent solidifies the soil and makes the sand clump together, but researchers have no idea what the combination of these two agents is for - and they can't figure out how to mix them in a short period of time.

This was the result of that scholar's research. Compared with this scholar, the research of the people arranged by Zodik had even less useful information. He tapped the table lightly, feeling quite disappointed.

If that scholar couldn't figure it out... then how could I possibly figure it out? No matter how hard Zoldyk thought, he couldn't figure out how these two potions could cure the oasis's shrinkage.

Most of the people of the sand don't have much knowledge, even Zoldyk is the same. He didn't realize that the fundamental focus of his research was wrong.

"Chief, this is a letter from the leader of the Sando clan." Zodik's men pushed open the door. He quickly walked to the table and put down the letter, his face looking quite frightened.

"Also, Chief, there's something you might need to know."

"What's the matter?" Zodik picked up the letter, looking rather absent-minded.

"...The leader of the Chi Nian clan has successfully transformed a patch of sand into an oasis. All the leaders of the Chi Nian Union witnessed it firsthand. It's credible and true. This news will spread throughout the desert soon."

"——!" Zodik didn't know how to describe his shock. He originally thought that being able to curb the shrinkage of the oasis was already the limit, but he never expected it to be like this.

Could a desert really be transformed into an oasis? Zoldyk had always believed it was impossible—it was something no mortal could do, something that was truly the province of the gods.

"There are rumors that the leader of the Chi Nian clan is not a mortal, but a divine messenger sent by the Chi King. Otherwise, it is impossible to explain how he could have such great power."

Those who are half a step ahead of the times are called geniuses, those who are one step ahead of the times are madmen, and those who are more than that... are people who are incomprehensible.

The people of the sand, including Zoldyck, naturally could not understand how the desert could be transformed into an oasis. They subconsciously tended to attribute such great power to the gods, and Zoldyck was instantly convinced of this statement.

"..." Zodik looked at the letter in his hand. He had already opened it, but had not had time to read it. According to his men, this news was witnessed by all the leaders themselves. Combined with this rumor, isn't it obvious what the letter will say?

The Sando clan would easily become attached to the Shayihe clan because of benefits, and would naturally return to the Chi Nian Union out of fear. As expected, the letter contained a lot of nonsense, but it could be summed up in one sentence: the Sando clan terminated its cooperation with the Shayihe clan and would draw a line between them from now on.

"The desert... turned into an oasis?" Zodik's words were intermittent, and for a moment he wondered if he was dreaming.

Anyone who mastered this technique would definitely become the most important person in the entire desert! And he actually wanted to go against such a person before?

"Lian En, cancel all surveillance and interference with the Red Nian Alliance. Then, I want you to select someone to reconfirm the authenticity of the news. If it is credible, then express our goodwill to the Red Nian Clan."

"…Furthermore, after that, we will declare to the public that the Shayeh clan will unite its entire strength to stand with the Red King's Envoy. Anyone who targets the Red King's Envoy will be an enemy of the Shayeh clan."

The Shayihe clan secretly communicated with the Sandu clan. Essentially, they wanted to curb the shrinkage of the oasis, but they didn't want to rely on the Chi Nian clan for support - but now it's different. Curbing the shrinkage of the oasis and transforming the desert into an oasis are two completely different things!

And since there are rumors about the Red King's envoy, no matter whether it is true or not, in order to make the Shayihe clan's behavior of "surrendering without a fight" look better, this leader must be the Red King's envoy even if he is not!

The situation changed in just an instant. Zodik was not a fool. He naturally knew that if he was an enemy of the Chi Nian clan at this time, he would be an enemy of the entire desert in the future.

It’s nothing, it’s just because what the other party did and the things involved behind it are too big.

……

"...Are you really not some rare genius who escaped from the Order House?"

The noise from the outside world could not affect the few people who were still in the Chi Nian clan. In the clan's library, Falushan was holding a Chi Nian dictionary, her eyes full of surprise.

The librarian present did not know the value of this thing, and the Sand People did not know its value either, but Falushan knew.

This new yet easy-to-use pinyin, along with a dictionary with two ways to look up characters and annotations, will greatly improve the efficiency of learning characters! As a genius of the Zhilun School, she knew this all too well.

"I have answered this question several times. It's not." Amber had a headache. After resting for a while, Falusan suggested that she wanted to go for a walk. Amber was afraid that her savior would be gone if she was not careful, so she simply accompanied her the whole time.

Who knew that when Falushan saw the library here, she immediately rushed in. Now she was amazed by these preschool education books and asked questions one after another.

"If you put these books in the House of Lords, you will become a strong candidate for the position of sage." Farusan kept turning the pages and browsing the contents of the book.

"One of the teachings of the Great Compassionate Tree King is: 'Everyone has the right to pursue wisdom.' Your books are equivalent to establishing an entire basic education system, building a broad staircase for ordinary people to pursue wisdom!"

"You're being too kind. In fact, if it were in the current Ministry of Justice, these things wouldn't cause much of a stir at all."

"Huh? Why?" Falushan was quite unbelievable. In her time, although the Tree King had such teachings, implementing them was another matter - ordinary people might not have the lingering desire to pursue wisdom, especially in the absence of a suitable basic education system. Gradually, this led to most of the scholars in the Academy being descendants of scholars or the so-called "elites", and there were very few scholars who came from ordinary people.

"Because, now that Void Terminals are commonplace," Amber sighed, "although the people who have been able to use them don't include the people of Sand, there's no need to develop basic education in Xumi City anymore."

It only took Falushan a moment to understand the truth. Although she had been active for a hundred years, she was also aware of the void device. After such a convenient device became popular, it seemed that there was really no need to continue to develop basic education.

"...Hmm." Falushan fell silent. Based on her understanding, what Amber could create was completely "epoch-making", but she never thought that such a genius work would be neglected in this era.

"...Knowledge is also time-sensitive." Falushan sighed softly.

"Yes, these are probably the negative effects of 'too much convenience'. Imagine if scholars no longer needed to hold books in their hands in pursuit of wisdom. They would gradually forget the 'weight of books' and lose respect for knowledge. This is probably why more people commit the Six Sins in this era than in your time."

"It's hard to imagine... Is the House of Religion so chaotic now?" Farusan sighed. For a moment, she felt that she was really old, just like those old people who lamented the fleeting time and were still reminiscing about the past.

Curiosity is the driving force of progress, but excessive curiosity will be counterproductive. If "wisdom" loses respect for knowledge itself, it will no longer care about the constraints of "decrees".

These "out-of-control wisdoms" will make scholars arrogant, indulgent, and fearless, and even despise life, talk nonsense about life and death, and ultimately create irreparable consequences.

The so-called six sins are the six "root sins" created by the first sages in order to prevent scholars from being destroyed by their knowledge. They believed that all the sins in the world were caused by these six root sins.

First, the matter of human evolution; second, the matter of talking nonsense about life and death; third, the matter of exploring the universe; fourth, the matter of exploring the origin of language; fifth, the matter of fearing God without practicing devotion; sixth, the matter of speaking mysteries without fear.

Based on these six deadly sins, sages of all generations have continuously revised the decrees, and the name of the House of Decrees comes from this.

As time goes by, many ambitious people today have forgotten these ancient six sins and have extended their own minions.

Chapter 34: Thriving

Kawanyi, which was always extremely prosperous in the past, has become even more crowded in recent days. A rumor spread like the wind across most of the desert and the entire Kawanyi in just a short time.

"The Red King has sent down his messenger! He has not abandoned his people!" From time to time, such voices were heard from different places. The gap in life between the people of the sand and the people of the forest was indeed too big. The bitterness of life had been suppressed in their hearts for too long. Such a well-founded piece of news was like a "lighthouse" in the darkness, giving them the long-awaited "hope."

"Brother! Brother! You all heard it!" Several mercenaries gathered in the tavern. Most of them looked excited. This well-founded news gave them too many surprises. They even felt it was a little unrealistic, but everything seemed to indicate one thing - the rumor was true.

"Who doesn't know this?" The well-informed mercenary took a big gulp of light beer. His face was flushed with excitement and his words were full of excitement.

"I heard! The Red King's envoy obtained the Red King's knowledge and turned a piece of sand into an oasis! It turned into an oasis! It is said that several clan leaders were watching at the time! The information is absolutely reliable!"

"Ah! Aren't good days coming?" The mercenaries sitting around were somewhat infected by the words and became a little excited.

"Isn't that perfect? ​​Think about it, how glorious was the desert when the Red King was still here? It was no less magnificent than those forest people!" The well-informed mercenary couldn't help but curse when he got emotional.

"It is said that this Red King's envoy is the leader of the Chi Nian clan who made a big splash before. You don't know that, right? According to my information--" The well-informed mercenary paused deliberately, attracting the unanimous urging of the people around him. Seeing that he had earned enough face, he stopped procrastinating.

"——According to my information, the Blazing Beast Hunters have made it clear that anyone who dares to touch this Divine Envoy will become an enemy of the entire Blazing Beast Hunters. And you know the Shayih clan, right? They recently mobilized their entire clan to support the Divine Envoy's grand plan, and they also declared that anyone who becomes an enemy of the Divine Envoy will become an enemy of the Shayih clan!"

"So, what did the Divine Envoy say? What big plans does the Divine Envoy have?"

"Hey, the Lord God's Messenger didn't say anything, but is the big plan that the Lord God's Messenger is thinking of something that we can think of? I don't know what it is, but it's definitely awesome!"

The words of the well-informed mercenary caused laughter from the people around him. It was not obvious that they were in Kawanyi. The people of sand here were more excited, but they still had to devote themselves to work after the excitement - the future is the future after all, and they must take care of the present first.

Wadiye, who often went in and out of the desert, had an even deeper understanding of this. Just because he had relatively frequent contact with amber, he gained a lot of respect among the people of the sand. When those people of the sand living in the lower wind-eroded land mentioned the so-called "Red King's Messenger", there was even "piety" in their eyes.

It's nothing, the people of sand have been suppressed for too long, and this ray of light that finally appeared is enough for them to be obsessed with it, but this light will not last too long. After all, it is only a small area now, and it is not convincing enough. Many people may seem excited for the time being, but after this period of time, it is hard to say. Although the people of sand in the lower wind erosion land basically believe in the "messenger of God", is this really a good thing?

Wadiye didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing. Even he was not sure whether Amber was the so-called messenger of the Red King, but... transforming the desert into an oasis was indeed incredible.

"Times have changed..." Wadiye couldn't help but sigh. He was used to seeing big storms, and he didn't act too out of control. Even if Amber was really the Red King's messenger, he was just a messenger. A messenger was a human, not a god, and humans still had their limits. With such a huge storm... he didn't know if Amber could withstand it.

Fame can bring benefits, but sometimes it can also be a shackle. It all depends on how the owner of the fame uses it.

But the scene in the House of the Decrees was quite different.

At this time when Kawanyi was in turmoil, the contemporary great sage Azar, the pinnacle of the House of Lords, was still preparing his grand plan.

The clerk directly under the Great Sage had just emerged from the elevator and was walking quickly across the corridor, heading straight for the Great Sage's office.

The guard and the clerk were already familiar with each other, so it was inconvenient to stop them since it was obviously an important situation. The clerk went through smoothly and pushed open the door of the office.

"Great Sage, I have something important to report!"

Seeing that the clerk was getting a little anxious, Azar put down the report in his hand and stroked his gray beard with his hand.

"What's so urgent?"

The clerk took several deep breaths to even out his breathing before speaking again, "A rumor has suddenly spread among the people of the Sand: 'The Red King's messenger has arrived, and will lead the people of the Sand out of the sea of ​​suffering.'"

"Hmm?" Azar's expression suddenly became serious. The problem with the Sand People has always been a big problem, but not a big one either. They are a cruel and barbaric group of people, most of them cannot be educated, like beasts, and they believe in the Red King. Over the years, there have indeed been many conflicts between them and the Forest People.

"What's the situation at Kawan Station?" Azar asked. The existence of Kawan Station itself is very delicate. Although the security is provided by the Dujin Brigade stationed at Kawan Station, it is actually still controlled by the House of Lords. Asking about the situation at Kawan Station at this time would be right, as it would directly reflect the current situation in the desert.

"The Kawanyidu Gold Brigade immediately dispatched additional personnel to maintain law and order a few days after the incident. They also contacted us to inform us of the situation. In the first few days, some of the Sand People were overly excited and caused quite a bit of trouble, but according to them... the situation is currently under control."

"Then there's no need to panic." Hazard's expression suddenly became relaxed again. He didn't want to quarrel with the desert unless necessary.

It's not that he was afraid. The High Command had an absolute advantage in terms of military force and was in a completely overwhelming situation. However, if he issued an order like "a brutal massacre", he would definitely be targeted and attacked by those with ulterior motives.

Then at that time... he will have no choice but to resign. In any case, before the plan is completed, the issue of the Sand People will be dealt with coldly.

"Have you found the source of this information?" Azar thought. Although this matter may not seem big in the short term, it is still necessary to investigate it.

"It is said that it was the Red King's Envoy who transformed a small area of ​​desert into an oasis, which caused a sensation. This ability won the trust of the people of the sand. The Blazing Hunter Beasts and a large clan in the surrounding area declared themselves to be the subjects of the Red King's Envoy."

"I see." Azar laughed, his tone tinged with disdain, revealing his arrogance. "If that's the case, transforming just a small patch of sand into an oasis is something my academy, with all the talented people in the academy, could accomplish with some research. The people of the sand are the people of the sand. Why are you making such a fuss over such a small thing?"

Azar quickly came to a conclusion. He felt that if he put all his efforts into transforming a small piece of sand into an oasis, it would have no practical value. However, he never thought that this was just a casual act of Amber. This mature technology could completely change the entire desert environment in time. This was a major project that would take a long time to study even in the House of the Decrees.

"It's rare to find such a talented person among the people of the Sand. But if that's all, it won't have much impact on our plans."

Azar turned his back and looked at the huge device on the dome that simulated the movement of the stars. He spoke again slowly, "The most urgent task now is still the void. Everything else can be put aside for now. As for this so-called Red King's Envoy... you should arrange for a reliable person to investigate."

"After the results are obtained, we will make other plans based on the person's attitude."

The clerk agreed and turned to walk towards the elevator, searching for a suitable disciplinary officer.

……

"Huh..." Amber had just escaped from Falusan's endless hell of questions, and before she had time to catch her breath, she was faced with another question.
