Chapter 188: The Carrot of the Hanging Donkey (Subscription Requested!! )
That's right! Lin Fan's main purpose in coming out this time was to pretend to be a god and make trouble for the dynasty, and only by stirring up the whole Svadia into a mess would Lin Fan have room for further development.
Lin Fan is not a person who is willing to live under others, so all these mountains above his head need to be moved.
If it was other gods who came out to fool around, with the shrewdness of the king and the major nobles, it would be impossible for them to believe it, after all, there were examples of this in the mainland before, wasn't the Karad Empire a mess by the so-called Holy See, which is why Lin Fan didn't use modern advanced equipment to pretend to be a ghost at the beginning.
After all, at that time, the foundation was weak, and his status was low, so it was not his turn to win the trust of the nobles, and the people below would directly dispose of the existence of liars and the like among him.
After all, they have been persecuted by theocracy, and the current aristocratic group is extremely sensitive to the so-called gods, gods, ghosts, and ghosts, and basically has an attitude of preferring to kill mistakes rather than let go.
But now it's different, Lin Fan himself is already a nobleman, and it is also said that this is the inheritance ability of the noble bloodline, this is a completely different concept, it is simply from the root to affirm the nobility of the noble bloodline, which is of great benefit to the rule of the nobles.
Of course, Lin Fan also has the Great Maritime World as a support, and at the same time, the strength of the modern side has also been greatly enhanced, and even his own territory here has gradually developed, so he has the confidence to make such a decision.
The other gods are all liars, of course the king and the nobles will not believe it, but Lin Fan is different, he has a practical example to show, the 'steel armor beast' has been directly summoned in front of everyone, so they can't believe it.

"The so-called empire is not just what you call it, it needs to be recognized by heaven and earth!"
Lin Fan talked eloquently, and the king and nobles were all like primary school students, obediently obeying Lin Fan's explanation.
As for the soldiers led by them, they had already been sent around by the alert nobles to keep a close guard long ago, and they didn't want to spread such an important secret at will.
Even some people have secretly blamed Lin Fan in their hearts, how can such an important secret be told in public, I don't know if this needs to be kept secret!
However, Lin Fan definitely didn't care about their thoughts, Lin Fan's purpose was to provoke turmoil among the nobles, and these news would naturally spread out.
Otherwise, if a nobleman was too confident in himself, and he had to think about catching Lin Fan and quietly asking for the secret alone, wouldn't it be very bad.
Lin Fan's purpose was to create contradictions between nobles and then divert conflicts, but he did not specifically lead the conflict to himself.
The king asked with a little urgency, "How can it be considered a true empire?" And what is the matter with the recognition of heaven and earth? How can I be recognized by heaven and earth? ”
Lin Fan signaled the king not to worry: "I have already told you before, but you may not remember very well, in our Shenlong Empire, the so-called gods and other gods do not exist, only the heaven and earth that nurtures all living beings are the supreme and supreme gods, and nothing can transcend them." ”
"Heaven and earth that give birth to all things? The supreme supreme god? The nobles muttered thoughtfully.
"Hmm!" Lin Fan nodded and said: "Heaven and Earth are supreme and will not be too partial to any existence, but once the country is strong enough to gain the attention of Heaven and Earth, then it will naturally be recognized by Heaven and Earth, and thus promoted to become a real empire." ”
"According to the research of the Shenlong Empire for thousands of years, only a country with a land area of more than 10 million square kilometers, a population of more than 100 million people, and a completely unified and highly centralized state can be recognized by heaven and earth, and thus promoted to become a real empire. And once the country is promoted to an empire, then the major nobles of the empire will naturally gain the favor of heaven and earth, so as to obtain the transformation of extraordinary bloodlines. ”
"The metamorphosis of the transcendent bloodline! Can this give you supernatural abilities? It's like the 'Steel-Armored Behemoth' you summoned Viscount Lin Fan? ”
Although Lin Fan had already summoned the 'Steel Armor Behemoth' back, the major nobles were still sincerely eager for such extraordinary abilities, and naturally some people couldn't help but ask.
Lin Fan smiled and nodded: "Of course, the noble bloodline of the empire, it is all absolute, and it naturally has a life level higher than ordinary people." ”
Lin Fan thought about the information he had compiled based on the major online articles, and at the same time he was very happy to fool the king and the major nobles.
"The requirements for promotion to the empire are so high? Wouldn't that be very difficult, when will we be able to reach it, I'm afraid the six kingdoms together will not be enough, right? ”
Some people are more agile in thinking, and they quickly thought of this problem, and suddenly all the nobles felt gloomy in their hearts, they didn't expect it to be so difficult, which made them lose hope at all, and it was no wonder that Lin Fan would leak the news so aggressively.
Seeing the performance of the major nobles, Lin Fan couldn't help but shake his head secretly, if according to the current situation, Lin Fan's purpose of instigating conflicts among the major nobles could not be achieved at all, and maybe even for this illusory possibility, it might make the major nobles more united, which was not what Lin Fan wanted.
Therefore, Lin Fan deliberately added: "Of course, the empire is too difficult to achieve, but it is not impossible to do otherwise. If you don't force the promotion to the empire, if you are only a kingdom recognized by heaven and earth, this difficulty will be reduced too much, as long as it is the royal blood of the kingdom, it is also eligible to obtain extraordinary abilities. ”
"Kingdom?" In an instant, even the king showed a look of surprise on his face, the empire may not be hopeful, but the kingdom sounds very simple, after all, now they Svadia call themselves kings, compared to the conditions achieved are not as difficult as imagined!
Seeing that everyone was whetted by himself, Lin Fan couldn't help but smile and said: "Yes, the standard of the kingdom will be relatively low, as long as the land area reaches one million square kilometers, the population of the kingdom reaches five million, and the country is unified to the level of centralization." ”
The so-called holding a carrot hanging a donkey, the key is to grasp the distance, if the goal is too far, it is inevitably unrealistic, and everyone has no interest in sticking to it, and if the goal is too close, anyone can complete it at will, then Lin Fan's lie is easy to poke and break.
The six kingdoms of the Calradia continent combined have a land area of at least 1.5 million ordinary kilometers, and if the freedmen who already exist are added, then the goal of 5 million people is not difficult to achieve, so in the end, the only remaining problems are the unity of the country and the centralization of power.
It is naturally extremely difficult to achieve such conditions, even the original Karad Empire, let alone the current Svadia Kingdom.
But on the contrary, the fruits of victory seem to be in front of you, and they are completely visible.
As if they only need to work hard, it is very likely to be achieved in their lifetime, and this possibility immediately moved everyone here.
It's just that the only one who can be recognized by heaven and earth, so as to obtain extraordinary abilities, is the only royal bloodline, and no one wants to let go of this.
Therefore, although the goal has not yet been achieved, the eyes of the king and the major nobles have flickered slightly.
