Chapter 149: The Confession
"What does this guest need?"
With the wind and snow, Wang Yi walked into the hall of the Tianwu Pavilion, a short and fat middle-aged man wearing round glasses and a satin coat greeted him, looking at the person in front of him, Wang Yi only felt that he seemed to be a figure of the Republic of China who came out of a history textbook, this subtle feeling, made him full of curiosity about the largest shop in the business district, but also a little more intimacy.

After Li Xun left the stall, Wang Yi quickly found Qin Yun through the soul oath, he didn't say anything to Qin Yun, but after asking a few words routinely, he agreed with Qin Yun to meet in the residential area later, and then left the stall alone.
Wang Yi knew that Li Xun wanted to let him take the opportunity to take advantage of Qin Yun, but the complex cause and effect of the entanglement between Qin Yun and him made Wang Yi not think about how to deal with it next, on the one hand, they supported each other on the line of life and death several times, and on the other hand, Liu Yuting and Mo Jiajia's blood feud, the old feud was unforgettable but life and death depended on each other, such a situation is real...
"Shopkeeper, I want to exchange this thing for something useful to me."
Perhaps influenced by some TV series he had watched before, Wang Yi naturally called the short and fat middle-aged man in front of him 'shopkeeper', and the middle-aged man also gladly accepted the title, and after understanding Wang Yi's intention and making a little identification of the Mokwa life core that Wang Yi took out, he led Wang Yi through the front hall and led him to an elegant room in the back hall.
This elegant room is not large, and the furnishings in it are antique, such as ink painting screens, blue and white porcelain vases, eight immortal tables, and longevity chairs, these familiar things make Wang Yi think that he has returned to the ancient times of his native world.
"The guests please wait a while, go down to the pavilion to ask a special connoisseur, and wait to determine the value of the things in the hands of the guests, and then come to negotiate the following transactions with the guests."
After serving the fragrant tea, the shopkeeper left temporarily after a confession, and Wang Yi was left alone in the private room, but the shopkeeper seemed to be in order not to let himself be slow, but he left a book for Wang Yi before leaving.
"Circular".
The vigorous pen left these three words on the cover. Wang Yi opened the first page of the book and was stunned by the words on it.
"Equilibrium, one of the original rules of all things, awakens from the underworld and achieves eternity. He is the first god, the god of eternal balance, who creates a place of control, leaves the five kings, allows the forty-nine pseudo-gods to be in the upper middle and lower, and is in charge of the world of all directions..."
The book begins with a direct explanation of the existence of the Lord God. Wang Yi was really surprised, and he also saw the spirit of the person who wrote the book through these words, but the next content was not so shocking, but it was still deeply attracted to Wang Yi, so that he was reluctant to move his gaze for half a minute, until the shopkeeper walked into the house with an old man who was also wearing a robe and a coat, Wang Yi was very reluctant to close the book.
"Are you satisfied with this book?"
Looking at the kind smile on the shopkeeper's face, Wang Yi nodded and replied, "Very satisfied." ”
Wang Yi has no reason to be dissatisfied, this book can be regarded as a solution to his urgent need, allowing him to have a certain understanding of the place under control from all aspects. In a big way, the five kings mentioned at the beginning refer to the existence of only five 'kings' in the realm of control from existence to now, and these five 'kings' are all adhering to the true meaning of balance, recognized by the main god, and like the existence of the son of God.
It's just that for the sake of balance, the king is not the only powerful existence in the land of control, the four high-ranking gods have the strength to rival the king, so the king and the gods each gather some strong people, and they are in charge of some places in the land under control, so the entire land of control is divided into six major areas on the surface. But in fact, there are more than a hundred large and small forces, according to Wang Yi's understanding, Ice Wind City is a city under the control of the Lord of the Cold Abyss, such as the Lord of the Cold Abyss, there are more than a dozen small local forces in the land of the sea and mountains.
This situation may seem confusing, but it is not. Every city in the land under control is firmly controlled by the main god, and the Temple of Eternity is its tentacles all over the place, in addition to the Temple of Eternity, the main god has also built another power structure for the land of control based on rank, the council.
The parliament here is not much different from the kind of system that Wang Yi understands, and the entire parliament is divided into an upper house and a lower house. The upper house is composed of forty-five gods and nearly a hundred princes, and the lower house is the number of thousands of so-called '**** councilors', but the strongest five kings and four upper gods are excluded from the entire council, and only exist as supervision and supervision.
Such a power structure is not just an empty shell, aside from the House of Lords, each member of the House of Commons alone has great power, involving various interests, such as war initiatives, such as the ownership of various resources in the control of the land, and even the control of the additional transmission fees charged by the Lord God is also in the hands of the Council, and this huge amount of revenue is only managed by the Temple.
It is precisely because of this that Li Xun, who has the status of a councilor, will receive such courtesy in the Eternal Temple, after all, for the Eternal Temple of Icewind City, the amount of funds that can be allocated is closely related to Li Xun's thoughts.
In this case, the competition for the qualifications of the councillors is extremely fierce, not only some famous super strong people want to intervene, but the gods also want to install their respective divine envoys in it, but the system of the election of councillors is divided by region, in short, according to the size of each city, each city has at least two councillors.
In addition to the Viscount Alto, the lord of the city, only Li Xun is a councilor, Li Xun can have such an identity, firstly, because she is the divine envoy of the Lord of the Cold Abyss, and secondly, because the strength of the Chosen One in Icewind City is extremely low, except for the Lord of the Kaicheng, there are no other viscounts in Icewind City, not even the lord, there are only nine knights, and Li Xun is recognized as the most powerful knight.
Wang, Gong, Hou, Bo, Zi, Xun, Knight, from top to bottom seven ranks, Li Xun can become a councilor with the rank of knight is really an outlier, but no matter how noble this status is, it is limited to the place of control, and even limited to Icewind City, out of Icewind City, especially when entering the mission world, others will not care much, after all, the place of control is fundamentally based on strength, and the council is just a net woven by the main god, so that all forces are in it to contain each other in order to achieve a balanced situation.
In addition to these, there are many other aspects of information mentioned in the Briefing, such as the interval between the Chosen and the Chosen entering the quest world, ranging from one year to a hundred years, depending on their strength; For example, in addition to its general function, the Temple of Eternity also connects three mysterious places, the Secret Pavilion, the Holy Mountain, and the Boundless Realm...
In short, after reading most of the Tongwen record, Wang Yi now has a much deeper and more detailed understanding of the place under control, and his eyes are not as black as before, relying on Li Xun to guide him, but there is no free lunch in this world, after seeing Wang Yi showing satisfaction, the shopkeeper said with a smile: "It's good that the guest is satisfied, this Tongwen record is clearly marked with a price of 10,000 universal points in our Tianwu Pavilion, and it will be converted into the guest's exchange for something later, and the guest has no objection, right?"
