Chapter 574 - 451: Negotiation and Nation-Building

Magaras has something up his sleeve.

He secretly attacked Galina, was it all to acquire her technology?

Liu Jun had already been studying the modifications of this sixth-tier realm, and the proposal from Magaras was quite tempting for him.

Even with his unparalleled wisdom, he requires similar knowledge to draw parallels and connect the dots.

Moreover, Galina’s sixth-tier Divine Era’s modification technology wasn’t perfected by her alone; it must have been achieved with the assistance of countless civilizational scholars.

This accumulation of countless eons of effort indeed tempted Liu Jun.

"I will purchase anything of value."

"Magaras, I agree to your deal, come to the capital above, and let’s discuss the details."

The God of Merchants turned around, returning to his palace, "Come over to my place to chat."

"Friend, that’s my home." Suddenly, Mingtushan asserted his presence.

Magaras glanced at Mingtushan, whose face darkened, and his expression also turned strange: "Host?"

Even though he’s well-versed in the World of Gods, it was the first time he encountered a deity playing this kind of game.

The God of Merchants, a real marvel in every sense!

This must be the truth behind "money makes the world go round"?

It’s precisely because the God of Merchants is so wealthy, frantically using resurrection currency to secure the partnership for a ride.

This resurrection currency comes with a formidable purchasing power!

Magaras laughed, "Friend, you’ve probably heard of similar stories in many mythical stories. The gods descend to the human world, and the human monarchs relinquish their palaces for the gods to reside!"

"No matter how powerful and invincible you are in the human world, for now, you’re merely an emperor of a mortal dynasty..."

"In the eternal history, the emperors and monarchs the gods have witnessed are as plentiful as grains of sand."

Magaras spoke these words to help the other party see the truth.

Do you think you’re strong?

Mortal, is still a mortal!

However, it’s because he hasn’t experienced real adversity that he’s so arrogant.

If the God of Merchants wasn’t present on this land, and these mortals fought him head-on, he’d probably be crying for mercy, where would he have the arrogance then?

"The God of Time?"

Mingtushan pondered and said, "I acknowledge I’m a mortal, I admit it..."

"So, as a god, are you interested in collaborating with me to deal with the God of Merchants? We mortals can’t deal with him, but shouldn’t the gods have a way?"

Mingtushan wasn’t foolish.

The God of Merchants’ traits are so absurd that at first sight, he was left clueless on how to fight him.

The God of Time’s ability, time reversal, also caught Galina off guard, striking her down.

He couldn’t believe there weren’t other types of gods that could restrain the God of Merchants.

Among the Divine Spirits, there must be factions and camps, interrelated and counteractive!

"Of course, there’s a way!"

Magaras smiled, "But why should I tell you?"

Mingtushan asked, "What do you want?"

"Sorry, what I want now, you can’t give, and cooperating with the God of Merchants is my optimal solution. Why should I help you against my partner?"

Magaras paused, revealing a meaningful expression, "Besides, if my true form descends, am I not the one you’d most want to kill then?"

Mingtushan’s expression turned solemn, "Aren’t you afraid the God of Merchants will sell you out?"

"I believe he’ll remain neutral; as the God of Merchants, merchant integrity is paramount."

Magaras’ voice was sincere, "Anyone might stab me in the back, but I believe the God of Merchants won’t."

He spoke these words with the intention for the distant God of Merchants to hear.

After all, if the cooperation succeeds, he would truly rise up.

The God, backed by the ancient Longevity God.

He, Magaras, supported by the ancient God of Merchants.

Their powerful alliance is bound to carve out a territory on the frontlines of the cosmos’s twelve trials!

Then, they can counterattack the First Trial and the Second Trial Universe.

He already imagined becoming incredibly strong in this Tenth Trial Universe, returning to fight the God.

The mere thought of it was exhilarating.

"Mortal, work hard." Patting the shoulder, teasing this cosmos’s Celestial Will Emperor, Magaras entered the palace.

Through a few exchanges, Magaras roughly understood what kind of person Mingtushan is:

Ordinary.

In every sense, quite ordinary.

But ordinary also implies a well-rounded character.

The other party clearly grew up in a very harmonious environment, which is why he appears just like an ordinary person.

And what about the madmen of the mother civilization?

Each seems like a left-behind child with psychological issues.

"This world’s Celestial Will Emperor is so normal it’s almost unsettling for me."

Magaras stroked his chin, as he had been lurking in the mother civilization for some time preparing to ambush Galina in the future.

The civilization’s powerhouses that ascend have varying degrees of significant issues!

Leaving aside these random thoughts, Magaras quickly followed the God of Merchants into the imperial palace.

The two sat on chairs.

Behind the God of Merchants, two royal guards were constantly tasked with killing him: "Here’s the exquisite wine and dishes you ordered!"

"You’re living quite well." Magaras looked at the constantly reviving God of Merchants with a peculiar expression, being perpetually slain by guards.

"Everything is bought with money."

As the God of Merchants spoke, he died once more, with a jingle of falling time-gold coins, he revived swiftly.

"I see, an experience bought at a high price."

Seeing this scene, Magaras sighed inwardly, realizing just how wealthy he truly is, even a coin a second is significant.
