Chapter 528 Ursus Succubus
"Instead of rushing to cause trouble for Neos now, it might be better to wait and let him cool off for a while. That way, it might be more effective."
Vladimir fully demonstrated the composure of the older generation and his understanding of the gods among men.
Even if Vladimir were to find the god of the human world now, he might not be able to defeat him in one fell swoop, and the god of the human world might have set a trap.
Since that's the case, it's better to remain hidden and keep the gods of the mortal realm constantly on guard, making it difficult for them to wholeheartedly refine the Fire of Creation.
Surely no one really thinks Vladimir was on his way on horseback the whole time?
Does the god of the human world believe that Vladimir has been on his way, or does he believe that he is secretly watching and waiting for his chance?
Having figured this out, Bai Ze simply found a place to sit down.
Since Vladimir isn't in a hurry, then Bai Ze certainly doesn't need to be either.
Even if the location of the God of the Mortal Realm is determined, it will be Vladimir who goes to fight him, not Bai Ze, a nine-star warrior who hasn't even reached the Heavenly Gate.
"I'm actually more curious about which young man stole Ursus's daughter's heart than Neos."
Vladimir looked at Bai Ze with a half-smile, "The investigation really gave this old man a fright."
You only reached the first star level at eighteen, and now you're already at the ninth star! This speed of breakthrough truly puts those who toil away to shame.
This Ursus god's enemy speaks the Eastern Xia language surprisingly well; if it weren't for his unusual appearance, one could easily mistake him for a native of Eastern Xia.
Upon hearing this, Bai Ze calmly replied, "People always believe that to succeed, one must endure hardship and sweat, only in this way can one reap success and reach the peak. But often, enduring hardship and sweating are only the most basic factors, and may not even be necessary factors."
"You mean your power growth rate is normal?" Vladimir asked.
"No, what I mean is, there are always some people who can defy common sense," Bai Ze said, "like me, like Mu Yaoguang, like Ekaterina, or rather... Your Excellency."
"I'm no match for you guys. I'm just an old guy who got lucky and benefited from the times." Vladimir took off his hat, revealing the top of his head, which showed signs of a midlife crisis.
"Many people can reap the benefits of the times, but only a handful can become the enemy of gods."
Bai Ze was not fooled by this seemingly ordinary middle-aged man. Although his gaze towards him was calm, it could not hide his caution and some respect. "Among the enemies of the gods who can share divine will like you and devote themselves to the country, you are the only one so far."
He could have been considered a third divine enemy, as he had once resolutely chosen the "Black Law of the Northern Emperor" for the sake of Dongxia, becoming the embodiment of the law.
Without that spirit of dedication, he could not have achieved godhood with the "Black Laws of the Northern Emperor".
The Northern Emperor's Black Laws are arguably the most demanding of all martial arts techniques in terms of mental discipline.
Unfortunately, the third enemy was corrupted by the Great Freedom and ultimately fell, so now only Vladimir remains.
Upon hearing this, Vladimir couldn't help but chuckle.
"You're quite the flatterer, always praising me and shutting me up," he said, speechless.
When this Ursus god mentioned Bai Ze's illogical rate of advancement, he was actually trying to test Bai Ze's true strength.
Bai Ze can mimic the radiance of Ursus and even infiltrate the divine communication of Ursus warriors. If he harbors any ill intentions, few in Ursus can guard against him.
Moreover, internal sabotage is far more dangerous than external threats.
This can be seen from the betrayal of the third divine enemy.
That person single-handedly paralyzed the judiciary, not to mention the other things they did in secret.
While Vladimir trusted Catherine's judgment and intuition, he still needed to take necessary precautions.
If Bai Ze truly harbors any sinister intentions, then he'll have to experience firsthand the ruthlessness of Ursus's enemy.
As a result, Bai Ze not only said many nice things, but also revealed that he was able to infiltrate the will of Ursus.
He understood Vladimir's dedication to Ursus, and this understanding alone surpassed that of many who comprehended the glory of Ursus.
In addition, Vladimir's own high level of expertise in the realm of willpower enabled him to see that Bai Ze's words were not false, but rather carried a sense of sincerity and respect, thus gaining people's trust.
This young man doesn't seem as dirty as I've seen before; he's just a bit low-class.
Ursus can tolerate people like that.
A country needs all kinds of people, including those with low moral standards or even those who lack ethics.
Ursus is not yet at the point of universal harmony; it also needs to expand outwards, and it needs to be ruthless and cold-blooded. Vladimir even considers himself not a good person.
"Not at all, I was just expressing my admiration for you," Bai Ze said with a smile.
"I never expected to receive such unexpected admiration."
Vladimir chuckled, then continued, "In that case, why not join Ursus? Andrei is right, you certainly have the Ursus spirit."
Oh no, it was coming for me.
Bai Ze was also surprised that Vladimir would offer to recruit him.
Unlike ordinary recruitment, this divine enemy directly opened up his divine will, sharing his frankness, ambitions, and even his vision for the future.
This feeling is even harder to resist than the allure of Catherine the Great.
What you think of as a honey trap: Hey sir, come on over!
The actual honey trap: Little comrade, do you want to come to Yan'an with me?
Despite his current appearance, Bai Ze once had a passionate past. Back then, he was the successor of a nation of 1.3 billion people, before he became a beast of burden.
Unfortunately—
This is not the past life after all.
Bai Ze calmed his mind.
If it were the older generation from my previous life, Bai Ze might have actually fallen for their trick.
Unfortunately, he's being recruited by an Ursus man from another world.
"Thank you, but I still want to be a Dongxia person," Bai Ze refused.
"What a pity," Vladimir said with great regret.
At the same time, he was also somewhat surprised that Bai Ze could recover so quickly, when he had been so successful in recruiting those old friends in the country.
The fact that at least 70% of the Ursus military comprehended divine will and became Vladimir's followers is inextricably linked to his personal charisma.
Don't let this unassuming Ursus man's appearance fool you; he's actually an Ursus succubus.
After expressing his regret, Vladimir put away his warm expression and said, "Since you are unwilling to join Ursus, then becoming Ursus's son-in-law is not such a simple matter."
Bai Ze: "..."
He cautiously said, "Actually, not getting married is one..."
He shut his mouth in the sudden chill of the sunlight in Vladimir.
"First, you need to run an errand for me and inform Patriarch Joseph of the Orthodox Church about Nyos, the god among men."
Vladimir continued, "By the way, Joseph has never been very satisfied with Katyusha, who is trying to embody both Orthodox and Christian beliefs. If he knew your identity, he might not be so kind to you."
"Oh, by the way. I've already contacted Pei Dongliu of your Eastern Xia. He appointed you as an envoy to come and contact Ursus. The two sides have reached a consensus to deal with the Western Alliance's forces in the Fire Desert."
In other words, we have no choice but to go now.
Pei Dongliu granted the power, and Bai Ze, wanting that power, must fulfill his obligations.
Furthermore, if the Western Alliance is to be put under constant pressure, Ursus's strength is indispensable.
However, the "Iron Patriarch" of the Ursus Church is no ordinary figure.
Bai Ze, a native of Dongxia, had heard of this man's tough reputation.
He was a pure, extreme, Ursusian advocate.
He was originally a marshal in the Ursus military, and could even be considered one of Vladimir's successors.
Because Vladimir thought he "did not look like a ruler," Joseph abandoned his military career and turned to Christianity, where he established the Orthodox system by studying the remains of the Son of God.
The Ursus Orthodox Church has been trying to proselytize in Dongxia for many years, and Joseph himself holds a threatening and controlling view of Dongxia. It's easy to imagine his attitude if he were to meet Bai Ze.
However, given the current situation, Ursus must unite with Dongxia.
Bai Ze pondered the question: Vladimir's decision to have me meet Joseph might mean that Joseph has been completely removed from the succession line in some sense.
From another perspective, this can be seen as a statement.
This demonstrates Ursus's sincerity in seeking an alliance.
The suppression of a hardliner is used to demonstrate the intention to form an alliance.
However, for a formal alliance to be formed, Dongxia needs to demonstrate its strength.
Thus, Bai Ze became someone who showed off his muscles.
In an instant, Bai Ze thought of many twists and turns.
The two seemingly invincible war god and Vladimir, who appears to be only good at fighting, are actually quite cunning and scheming when they are together.
These two definitely made some shady deals.
However, judging from Vladimir's original intention, he planned to act as a minotaur, skip the deal with the God of War, and give Bai Ze to the minotaur.
You really can't judge a book by its cover. Who would have thought that Vladimir, this great and righteous enemy of God, is actually a minotaur?
While inwardly grumbling, Bai Ze stood up and asked, "To what extent do you need me to go?"
"To have such confidence in the face of a demigod, it seems I underestimated you."
Vladimir smiled slightly and said, "Do what you can, and I'll be watching. But it's best to act within your capabilities, lest Katyusha become a widow before she's even married."
As Ursus's nemesis, Vladimir cannot openly suppress Joseph.
Although the enemy of God possesses virtually unlimited power, Vladimir's morality limits the exercise of that power.
He did not want the power of the enemy of God to expand excessively.
It was precisely this idea that led Vladimir to oppose Joseph's rise to power.
"In this era, people need an object of worship, but excessive personality cult is not a good thing."
Vladimir said, "Joseph has cultivated a cult of personality and is arrogant. If we can bring him back to his senses, that would be a good thing."
As he spoke, he flicked his finger and sent out a point of crimson light, which landed in Bai Ze's hand.
The crimson light contained the location of the Orthodox Church's Protectorate Army.
Clearly, this person had arrived long ago and had been roaming the Flaming Desert, observing the actions of all parties, rather than, as Bai Ze had previously thought, having been on horseback on his way.
His implication was clear: let Bai Ze do whatever he wanted.
Bai Ze had the same idea.
Because Joseph, the Iron Patriarch, could be said to be on the opposite side of Catherine.
He attempted to integrate Orthodox faith into his own, paving the way for Catherine while also blocking Bai Ze's path.
Isn't Catherine's faith the same as Bai Ze's faith?
What do you intend to do to my faith?
Bai Ze also plans to utilize Ursus's faith in the future to promote his own Mahayana Buddhist path.
Thinking this, Bai Ze reached out and grasped, as if holding an invisible hat and putting it on his head.
The next instant, a crisp, neat black military uniform appeared on Bai Ze's body, and even his face underwent a drastic change.
"I forgot to mention to you, but I also have a position in Ursus."
Bai Ze smiled at Vladimir.
Back then, the military strategist directly created a military identity for Bai Ze, and even prepared his past information.
So this time, it's not the Eastern Xia people going head-to-head with the Iron Patriarch, but a power struggle between the Ursus military and the Orthodox Church.
This can be considered as adding insult to injury for Vladimir.
As soon as Bai Ze finished speaking, he vanished into thin air, as if he were a phantom that had never existed.
Vladimir couldn't help but chuckle as he watched him run away.
"I already have an identity... Hehe, it seems my old friend and I are thinking the same thing."
The fact that a military strategist would deliberately create such an identity is clearly not just for cover.
He most likely intends to take over Bai Ze's territory.
However, judging from Bai Ze's expression, the military strategist's plan was not going smoothly either.
"Although this young man's bottom line is a tiny bit low, at least he loves his country."
Vladimir said softly, "He still has many merits."
If Bai Ze runs off to Ursus without hesitation, Vladimir should be more cautious.
He refused, which Vladimir was disappointed with, but also quite satisfied with.
But this only made my desire for cattle stronger.
"It seems we need to plan more carefully."
As he said this, Vladimir reached out and drew a screen of light, in which indistinct figures appeared.
As an Ursus succubus, Vladimir also has fans within the Orthodox Church.
Even within the Guardians of the Faith, some communicated with Ursus's Radiance.
Therefore, it's quite reasonable for him to be able to spy on the situation on the side of the Guardian Army, isn't it?
The scene on the light screen changed, and after about ten minutes, a commotion arose.
That's Bai Ze.
