"Are you really a god?"

Marceau looked warily at the orange cat squatting on the table.

She had guessed that the orange cat was the embodiment of a powerful spellcaster, but Marceau's one-time ascension to the level of a god still left Marceau unbelievable.

"Does it have anything to do with it? You just need to know that I can help you make the Overlord and the Arcade machine, right? ”

Qiao Xiu didn't flicker anymore when facing the leader of the sewing gang, and chose a more practical way to talk to her.

This woman named Marceau grew up in this chaotic city, and it was already incredible that she could learn magic, and Qiao Xiu didn't expect her to have faith in an ethereal god like the lizard elder.

"And what gray fog are you really going to purify and save the city's inhabitants?" Marceau threw another question.

"The front is true, and the words in the back... If you think it's the truth, it's the truth. ”

Qiao Xiu actually has no interest in pretending to be a ghost, and after the words of the preach, if the onlookers don't want to believe it, Qiao Xiu will not hold others to continue preaching.

Adhering to the attitude of believing it or not, anyway, you will still like to add one in the end, Qiao Xiu is too lazy to argue with this woman.

"I believe you are God, but if I believe in you, can you help me fulfill any wishes?"

Marceau sat back down on her couch and lit another cigarette.

"Wishes? Are you going to play the sequel to The King of Fighters, or a new arcade game? Like Metal Slug, Knights of the Round Table, Dinosaur Kombat, etc., I can make it happen for you in the short term if you make a wish. ”

Qiao Xiu controlled the orange cat and spread out his two small paws, as if he had a look of 'God has mercy on the world'.

"Games." Marceau muttered the word, and then walked to the only window in her room, through which Marceau could see the arcade below.

The sound below is very noisy, with the shouts of the people playing in front of the arcade and the various sound effects of the arcade machine.

Frankly...

"It's been a long time since I've seen the city's residents be so vibrant." Marceau whispered, "The existence of the Laughter Mixture allows us to live in a dream world, the real world is a corpse, and all the inhabitants of this city do every day is to fall in the streets, or sleep in their own homes, waiting for the date when the Laughter Mixture will be distributed." ”

"After all, you are not so much a resident as a captive animal by the city lords."

Qiao Xiu spoke without any mercy, this woman named Marceau was Qiao Xiu in this city... I've met humans who feel more 'alive'.

Then there are the Blacktail and the Sewing Gang, because they know they have something to do, a territory to take care of, and they have to fight the other gangs in the city every day.

But most of the city's inhabitants are just corpses.

"Livestock? You've been mentioning the lord of the city. Marceau shook the cigarette butt in his hand "From your words, it seems that the lord of the city is not a human thing?" ”

"I'm not sure who your lord is... The thing itself is still an agent of the thing, but one thing is for sure, you will live in this environment, there is a monster of your negative emotions as food, despair, sadness, laziness... These are its foods. "Joshua told Marceau the truth.

"Negative emotions." When Marceau heard the truth, he burst out laughing, "No wonder this city... It's so suffocating. ”

While Qiao Xiu was talking to Marceau, an unexpected situation suddenly appeared in the arcade below, and two strong men from the sewing gang were holding a thin young man and preparing to throw it outside the arcade hall.

"I've got Talon Coins on me! I really still have! Please, let me play one more game and definitely defeat the big snake! The young man prayed to the two strong men of the sewing gang.

Qiao Xiu stared at the scene below and was silent for a moment.

"Let your men let him go." Qiao Xiu said.

"What can we do to let go and let this useless waste stay here and take a place?" Marceau has always been intolerant of these self-depraved people.

The orange cat just crouched by the window and watched Marceau, Marceau sighed and waved his hand to the two strong men of the sewing gang below, and they let go of the young man, who kept saying words of thanks, and in the blink of an eye he was back on the arcade.

"The city's financial system... To put it simply, where does all the money come from? ”

Qiao Xiu looked at the people gathered in the arcade hall below, if it was the whole city that drank the laughter mixture, Qiao Xiu didn't think that this city could continue to develop normally.

"Rationing, maybe as you said, captivity, every resident can get some food and Eagle Claw Coins in the city, and Eagle Claw Coins can be exchanged for clothes and laughter pills from the city lord, of course, laughter pills are very expensive." Marceau said.

"In this situation, I really want people to sing a Katyusha." Qiao Xiu felt a little familiar when he heard this system?

"What?"

"Nothing... Isn't that right, don't you want to change the status quo? Qiao Xiu said.

"Change... How can I change that? Do I have my men go to war with the patrol team? Each and every one of the patrol members was endowed with terrifying powers, and ordinary people were no match for them at all. Marceau said.

"There's no need for war, there's a huge hole underneath the city, and that hole is the territory of the Exploration Society, what are they going to do with it... As I think you know, the point is that beneath the cavity is a vein of protocrystal. ”

This is the information that Thousand Faces got during the reconnaissance, and this is also the source of the city's original crystal.

"The money you earn has to be used, what can you buy from the city lord for Eagle Claw Coins?" Qiao Xiu asked.

"Clothes and food, and some everyday items."

Marceau gradually sat up straighter when she heard this, and she began to take Qiao Xiu's proposals seriously.

"You heard my discussion with the lizard elder just now, and I... If you think so, I'm the embodiment of the God of Order, and my next plan is to establish an underground religion in the city, but I don't think the people of this city will be idle enough to believe in a god, but I have it. ”

A Little Overlord Primordial Crystal appeared in Qiao Xiu's hand, and the Sewing Gang had already begun to sell this Primordial Crystal, and its potential customers were gradually increasing.

"What the hell are you trying to say?" Marceau asked.

"The lord of the city controls the inhabitants of this city with laughter potions, and we can do the same thing, except that we are in the name of a god, and these believers will join us because of this original hedron or playing arcade machines, and they will be paid for it in talons or directly in game currency, and let them work for me, and the content of the work will ...... There's a lot more to it than mining. ”

At this moment, Marceau seemed to see the orange cat's face with a 'stupid human' smile.
