Of course, the God of Light was not the only god who praised the republican system proposed by Sui Xiong. Later, Javier listed a number of gods, many of whom were really famous. What surprised Sui Xiong the most was that the God of Sky of the Natural God System actually spoke highly of the system.

When Sui Xiong heard that, he couldn’t help but feel shocked. He asked, “If I remember correctly, the God of Sky is a Nature God, right? Why is he interested in a mortal national system?”

“I don’t know why either. I heard his words from others,” Javier said, smiling. “Do you think that I can talk to His Majesty directly? Although I have many friends, my identity is so much more different from his. It’s impossible for me to talk to him!”

Sui Xiong thought about it and then laughed.

Gods of Belief and Nature Gods were in two camps. Although they weren’t enemies, it was also hard for them to become friends. It was really great that Javier was able to pick up some information and hear the God of Sky’s evaluation on the republican system. Javier was comparable to the “inquiry” role in some old-fashioned love games. If he could actually ask the God of Sky himself directly, Sui Xiong would doubt whether Javier was a master of disguise or not.

“How did the God of Sky evaluate the republican system?” Sui Xiong asked with a smile.

“His Majesty said that this system is conducive to the flows of social classes. Compared to aristocracy, it can better reflect the principle of survival of the fittest. Moreover, the strong people can get the corresponding status according to their contributions. It is far better than strength equaling to high status. He said that this system is closer to the evolution of nature and it is a laudable innovation.”

Sui Xiong couldn’t help but nod. Even though he did not fully agree with the view of the God of Sky, he had to admit that the God of Sky’s evaluation on the republican system from the natural point of view was very inspiring to him.

It took Javier almost half an hour to finish telling Sui Xiong the gods’ evaluations he knew on the republican system. Most of the evaluations were positive, but some were negative. For example, the Master of War’s evaluation was negative. The fierce and aggressive god felt that the republican system paid too much attention to the interests of the civilians, so it lacked the guarantee of the interests of the strong people.

“No, the strong people have more power than ordinary people, so it is easy for them to get more honor and a higher status. Isn’t that a good guarantee?” Sui Xiong asked in wonder.

“The Master of War just said those words, so I don’t know what he really meant,” Javier answered, shaking his head. “But I think that he might mean that he wants the authority of the strong people to be more powerful. For example, he wants to build a society where the strong people rule everything, and social status is determined by force. The ordinary people would either become stronger or become slaves.”

Sui Xiong thought about it and then shook his head. He said, “I don’t agree with him. He is really different from me.”

For Sui Xiong, the reason why he wanted to promote the progress and development of society was that he had witnessed the hard life of the civilians in this world. Therefore, he hoped to do something for those laborers who were exploited and oppressed. This was his initial aim as well as the fundamental principle that he wouldn’t compromise.

In fact, the birth of the republican system was already a compromise of his own ideas according to reality.

In this world, strongmen were the most important foundation for productive progress. This was undeniable.

However, Sui Xiong absolutely disagreed with the idea that the strong should occupy everything and the production resources should be distributed according to the degrees of strength.

If a society wanted to progress, the grassroots people would be the foundation. Losing that foundation, the so-called “strong culture” would be nothing more than a castle in the air. A short time later, it would collapse.

The basic reason was that if there were no huge number of civilians to provide the population from generation to generation, where would the strongmen come from? Only from the descendants of those who had been strong?

It was almost like the social form of dragons, and the dragon race was famous for its small population.

Many people had misunderstood the dragons. They thought that the dragons had a small ethnic group because they had a low fertility rate. In fact, this was not the case at all. The fertility rate of dragons was not low. The common Five Color Dragons could give birth once every hundred years. Each time, they would give birth to two or three babies. According to their powerful strength and longevity, their fertility rate was very high.

However, why did the dragons still have such a small ethnic group? This was related to their abnormal social form.

In the society of dragons, the strong ones could trample the weak ones arbitrarily. They could take whatever they wanted from the weak. The mortality rate of the young dragons was astonishingly high. Most of them were killed by dragons of the same race. Among the common advanced professions of dragons, more than half were specialized in restraining dragons, which further proved their barbarism.

This crazy natural elimination process helped increase the average combat power of dragons greatly, but it also made it impossible for them to increase the population of their ethnic group. Nearly 10,000 years ago, the Dragon Emperor at that time had made a law with a harsh attitude. The law strictly forbade the superior dragons from killing the inferior dragons. If not for that, their ethnic group would have already shrunk to its extreme!

Therefore, listening to the criticism of the Master of War, Sui Xiong sneered.

He even secretly felt that perhaps he would have to fight with the Master of War in the future. He would need to convince the Master of War with force.

This thought just appeared in his mind like a flash, so he didn’t care about it.

After Javier told Sui Xiong the praises and criticisms of other gods, Morani also told Sui Xiong the evaluation of Lefon, the Master God of the Orc Gods.

“His Majesty, the Sky Devourer Canine asked me to tell you that he thinks that your system is very innovative. It seems to be quite suitable for the Orcs. If you can’t continue to push it in the human society, you’re welcome to join in the Orc God System. Majesty Lefon is willing to let you host the social transformation of the Orc Empire.”

Sui Xiong was shocked. He asked with widened eyes, “You’re sure you didn’t get that wrong? He said ‘I’m willing to let you host the social transformation of the Orc Empire’? The republican system is totally different from the imperial system!”

“I asked him this question. He said, ‘Orcs are not in a cultural group, so we have no special traditions. As long as the country can become bigger and stronger, besides the republican system, it will be okay to take turns in being emperors.’”

“He is really open-minded,” Sui Xiong said, sighing. Then, he couldn’t help but ask, “So, what if I can operate the Republic of Northwest well?”

“I asked the same question at the time. He said, ‘Then we will be neighbors. Anyway, I believe that the jellyfish will never be a racist like some narrow guys. Even if he becomes a racist, he won’t discriminate against the Orcs.’”

Sui Xiong shook his head, smiling.

Lefon, the Sky Devourer Canine, was really an open-minded god. He was so easy-going, which made Sui Xiong wonder how he was able to control the whole Orc God System.

After smiling, Sui Xiong looked at the God of Justice who had kept silent since the beginning. Sui Xiong asked, “My brother, how do you see my system?”

The face of the God of Justice was very dignified. He was looking at the establishment ceremony of the Republic of Northwest carefully and thinking silently.

When Sui Xiong asked him for the second time, he suddenly came back to his senses, but he still didn’t answer. He just looked at Sui Xiong with doubt.

“Bro, I don’t understand your thoughts anymore,” he said. “Why do you build this country?”

“I want to pursue my ideals and shelter my believers. Why else would I build it?” Sui Xiong answered naturally.

“Since this is the case, why don’t you make the Church of Void Mask as the state religion of the Republic of Northwest?”

“State religion?” Sui Xiong was stunned. He had certainly thought about that before, but he always felt that a theocratic state was very strange. It would remind him of some barbarians who wanted to return to the 7th century in the 21st century.

I, Sui Xiong, am not talented, but I won’t do those things which make the society go backwards!

But the gods in this world wouldn’t understand his statement. He finally came up with an answer after thinking for a long time.

“If it becomes the state religion, then I will become the patron god of this country,” he said half-sincerely. “I am willing to be a guardian, but I don’t want to be a patron god.”

“Guarding a certain region, a certain country, or a certain race. To be honest, it is a good priesthood,” Morani advised. “For a new god, it is a very reliable priesthood, and you don’t need to worry about conflicts with others. I feel that it is very good.”

“Yeah. Starting as a patron god is the best way for a new god,” Javier also persuaded.

Manissy, the Goddess of Wealth didn’t join the ranks of persuasion. She felt that her ally, the Void Mask, was inscrutable. Since he didn’t want to be a patron god, then there must be an important reason. Instead of persuading him in vain, it was better to talk about something meaningful.

Therefore, when Sui Xiong smiled and rejected everyone’s suggestions, she asked, “Are you planning to continue the freedom of belief in the Republic of Northwest?”

Sui Xiong answered, nodding, “I think that beliefs should be free. Belief must come from the recognition of a god’s ideas; then it can be regarded as a meaningful belief.”

“In this case, how are you going to manage the churches, temples, and clergies?” Manissy asked again. “I notice that you didn’t mention this in the republican system’s documents.”

Sui Xiong was silent and then sighed.

“This is... It’s hard to deal with!”

After all, in this world, the power of the gods was the origin of all power. Sui Xiong was not the kind of madman who wanted to use a knife to cut everyone in the world. He knew clearly about his abilities, so he didn’t intend to challenge the essence of this theocratic society.

Therefore, he avoided the questions about gods, churches and other similar questions.

“Although it is difficult, you have to deal with it,” Manissy advised. “Many of the gods are hostile to each other. If you really allow the churches to preach freely, I bet that in less than three or five years, serious disputes between the churches will break out in the Republic of Northwest. What will you do at that time?”

Sui Xiong was silent for a long time; then he sighed deeply. He said with a forced smile, “At that time, I will say only one sentence.”

“What sentence?”

“Follow the basic law to preach.”
