The Great Flood of the End of Time: Female Neighbor Comes to Borrow Food

Chapter 938 The God of the Divine Kingdom

Liang Yuan learned a lot about the Jingzhou military from Dr. Yin and Li Hu.

After this investigation, we gradually gained a general understanding of the situation of the Jingzhou military.

The military in Jingzhou was also divided into many factions.

The main reason why all these factions are able to come together is because of this 'spaceship' project.

No single military faction could have accomplished such a massive project on its own.

This involves a great deal of resource consumption and technical challenges.

No military faction can afford the risks involved if it wants to conduct the research on its own.

Therefore, the entire military faction can only conduct research collaboratively.

Even when they work together, various issues such as resources and talent still plague them.

So they began to expand outwards and gather other forces.

This is also one of the main reasons why the Jingzhou military and the Divine Kingdom fought.

"Are there any other reasons?" Liang Yuan asked.

Li Hu nodded and said, "Yes, the people of the Divine Kingdom are also expanding. They are quietly spreading their religion in the Jingzhou area and have lured away many people."

"In this apocalyptic world, the population is already small, and the military will not allow other forces to take away the population resources within its territory."

"This is also the main reason why the two sides started the war."

Liang Yuan stroked his chin and suddenly asked, "Why is the Jingzhou military in such a hurry to research spaceships?"

"Logically speaking, with floating islands and air islands, even if Jingzhou has a population of 100,000, there shouldn't be any overcrowding, right?"

"Land resources shouldn't be that scarce, right?"

This is exactly what Liang Yuan is curious about.

It should be noted that Yangshan has expanded to its current size, yet it has not immediately considered researching spaceships and leaving Earth.

Seeing that the Jingzhou military could even put aside factional disputes and cooperate in researching spaceships, Liang Yuan felt that it was a bit of a mismatch.

There's definitely something I don't know about here.

Without enormous benefits or some other reason, how could different factions of the military possibly put everything aside and start cooperating?
Upon hearing this, Li Hu scratched his head and said, "I don't know the specific reason either, but it is indeed as you said, the spaceship program was not actually implemented half a year ago."

"At that time, the military in Jingzhou was actually quite fragmented, with each faction refusing to submit to the others, and they even fought each other several times."

"This is also the reason why forces such as the Divine Kingdom were able to develop in the early stages."

"If the Jingzhou military had united as one earlier, there wouldn't be any forces like the Divine Kingdom now."

Liang Yuan frowned, a question arising in his mind: what exactly was the reason that prompted the various factions within the military to put aside their conflicts of interest and work together to research spaceships?
At this moment, Dr. Yin suddenly spoke up: "I have heard some things, but I don't know if they are true or not."

Liang Yuan looked at him and immediately asked, "What is it?"

Dr. Yin said, "I have some friends in the military's research team. I've heard them talk about how, about six months ago, the military in Jingzhou discovered a lot of ancient sites, and some people even dug up the corpses of ancient deities."

"At that time, this matter caused a great uproar, and later the military's rune technology continued to develop like an explosion."

"Many ingenious ideas suddenly came to mind, and I suspect they may have actually unearthed some secrets from ancient ruins."

"Looking back now, it seems that not only technological development, but also the political decisions of the various factions in the military, all began to change about six months ago."

"Of course, I didn't see any so-called ancient immortal corpses or ancient relics. The military has protected this area very well."

"But looking back now, it probably wasn't just a rumor."

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan immediately understood.

This matter may indeed be related to ancient superhumans.

On our side, there are four superhumans who survived from ancient times: Jin Peng, Di Quan Ke, Ling Yu Rong, and Yin Yu.

There's no reason why there wouldn't be other places with superpowered individuals who survived from ancient times.

So what secrets did the Jingzhou military learn from these ancient superhumans?

Liang Yuan's eyes flickered slightly. It seemed he had to go back and ask Jin Peng and Yin Yu.

The rank of Li Hu and Dr. Yin in front of them was still too low; they didn't know some of the secrets of the military's high command.

That makes sense; if he were truly a core figure in the military, he wouldn't have been sent here to carry out such a dangerous mission.

Liang Yuan stopped dwelling on these secrets and instead asked, "What is the situation with the Divine Kingdom? How do they proselytize?"

Li Hu replied, "Master, the people of the Divine Kingdom have a rather unique way of spreading their religion. They don't believe in any other gods, they only believe in their own god—the six-winged angel Shangdi!" "The six-winged angel Shangdi?" Liang Yuan's gaze sharpened.

Li Hu said, "Yes, the leader of the Divine Kingdom is this Shangdi. He calls himself 'God' and has absolute dominance in the Divine Kingdom. All the residents of the Divine Kingdom's refuge believe in him as the only true God."

"This person's genetic form is a 'six-winged angel,' which is why his image is considered a god in the divine realm."

“The inhabitants of his refuge all claimed to be God’s people, and that God would lead them out of their predicament and overcome the flood disaster.”

“These people are extremely devout to him. We once sent people to try to turn some of them against him, but not only were they not turned, the people we sent also became followers of Shandi.”

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan frowned slightly and asked, "Did this divine kingdom use some kind of brainwashing method or superpower?"

Li Hu shook his head: "No, no superpowers worked. We've captured many believers of the Divine Kingdom and studied them."

“These people truly believe from the bottom of their hearts that Shangdi is a ‘god,’ an omnipotent god.”

Liang Yuan asked, somewhat puzzled, "How did Shang Di manage to do that?"

Li Hu shook his head: "We don't know either. The military sent people to investigate for a long time. All we know is that too many strange things have happened to Shang Di."

"For example, someone may be terminally ill or even on the verge of death, but as long as Shangdi takes action, he can save them."

“Some people even have missing limbs, but when they come to Shangdi, he can help them grow back their missing limbs.”

Liang Yuan frowned: "Could it be that some kind of recovery potion was used?"

Li Hu said, "We've had our suspicions, but we have no evidence."

"Anyway, there are many miraculous things about him. It is because of these incredible things that the people of the Kingdom of God believe that he is a god."

Liang Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Is he very capable? Is his gene recombination progress very advanced?"

Li Hu nodded: "Very strong. His gene recombination progress is definitely over 85%. If it weren't for Hong Tianyi's intervention, none of us would be his match."

Liang Yuan asked, "What is his special ability?"

Just hearing the name "Six-Winged Angel" was enough for Liang Yuan to guess the specific abilities of this person.

Li Hu hesitated for a moment, then said, "To be honest, we still don't know what his special ability is."

"During the battle between the military and Shangdi, he used various supernatural abilities of different attributes, including wind, fire, thunder, lightning, metal, wood, water, and earth."

"So even though he was later defeated by Hong Tianyi, we still don't understand what kind of superpower he possessed."

As soon as Li Hu finished speaking, James, who was standing next to him, asked incredulously, "You can use all kinds of elemental abilities?"

Liang Yuan looked at James and asked, "Didn't you fight against the people of the Divine Kingdom? Didn't you know that he can use various different elemental abilities?"

James quickly replied, "I've fought him before, but back then, all that Shandy showed was his powerful mental strength, as well as his unpredictable speed and power."

"He didn't display any other attributes or abilities, and the abilities he did display were all countered by my superpower."

"After we both entered the genetic recombination stage, he fought me again, and I lost to him that time."

"But at that time, he used a long-range mental attack to forcibly tear open my silent energy field and break my silent ability."

"But that's all he did; he didn't dare come close to me."

"After that encounter, we both took a step back and developed our own paths, and we haven't fought each other since."

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan frowned, glancing at Li Hu and then at James.

If neither of them lied, then wouldn't that mean that after Shandy tied with James, his strength rapidly increased, and he also mastered various other attribute abilities?
How did he do that?
Could it be that the other party really possesses the same copying ability as Jin Shirong?

Or does it possess a versatile gene, just like itself?

Regardless of the situation, it is enough to demonstrate that the 'god' of this divine kingdom is indeed powerful.

However, Liang Yuan then thought that even someone as powerful as Shang Di could be defeated by Hong Tianyi from the military.

Wouldn't Hong Tianyi be even more powerful then?

"Heroes emerge in times of chaos. In this apocalypse of flood, so many masters have actually appeared."

"But no matter how powerful they are, they can never be my match."

"My gene recombination progress has reached 98% and it is just a little short of being perfect."

"There is no one more powerful than me on the entire planet Earth."

Liang Yuan smiled slightly, his thoughts shifting back to the military's development of spacecraft.

What information did the Jingzhou military receive, and why are they focusing all their efforts on developing spaceships?
