Chapter 260: New Concepts Acquired, All-Race Council Established, Covenant Initially Set

The world had been restored, and the races who had never seen such a bright world all gazed at this restored world with some curiosity.

Of course, the Vampire Race must be excluded; although they would not be harmed by sunlight, compared to a bright environment, they still preferred dark places.

"You seem somewhat different; is it my imagination?"

Looking at Fanlou descending from the sky, Broly asked with some curiosity.

"When restoring the world, I incidentally corrected the state of my external body."

Fanlou answered, then took Broly's hand and placed the boy's hand on the place where her body had changed.

The touch through the clothes felt somewhat warm.

And the shape Broly's fingertips sensed seemed not quite the same as what he had seen before.

Rather, a hairline crack had suddenly appeared on Man Tou Shan.

"I was a bit curious about future events; after fusing with the Star Cup, I took a slight glance at the future."

Broly tilted his head, not understanding what connection there was between looking at the future and Fanlou changing her body.

"Broly, you are still young now, but you will understand when you grow up."

Fanlou released the Saiyan boy's hand, then continued speaking.

"Maintaining this world's peace requires the Star Cup's power; I cannot currently transfer the Star Cup's Omniscience concept to you, but I can give you the concepts of 【Suspicion】 and 【Exaggeration】 that I previously possessed, as a Blessing..."

Speaking, Fanlou raised her hand and tapped Broly's forehead with her fingertip.

The next moment, the Crystal Palace's prompt information surfaced:

【Acquired World-Class Rules 【Suspicion】, 【Exaggeration】; these two rules were bestowed by the M12 Low-Dimensional World's Unique God (former Suspicion God) Fanlou.

After obtaining these two rules, the Host will automatically gain the 【Powerful Reality Modification】 ability in the M12 World.

As long as the Host believes things are a certain way, things will develop and change in the direction the Host believes.

Unless interfered with by a higher Rule ability, it takes permanent effect.

This ability will be Weakened upon leaving the M12 Low-Dimensional World, but the modification trait retains a certain degree, changing from powerful modification to probabilistic modification.

The modification probability depends on the tolerance level of different worlds toward the two Rules 【Suspicion】 and 【Exaggeration】; the modification method is likewise.

Note: this ability activates Passively.】

"In the future you must be happy, think more good thoughts; thus you should always encounter some good things."

Fanlou cupped Broly's face and earnestly admonished him.

The little He — oh no, should say she — pulled Broly to the side.

Passing by Shinclair Balon, she said to this Elf: "You want to administer this world on behalf of others; then you must satisfy Broly's requirements. He dislikes conflict; the rest is up to your performance."

Shinclair Balon: "..."

What is this, the first wife instructing the second wife?

"Yes."

But thinking the other party was a Divine Spirit Race, and had now been made a Unique God by Broly, and she would have to work under the other party in the future, this political creature Shinclair Balon decisively made a respectful bow.

"Under the Unique God's witness, we will sign a mutual non-aggression Peace Covenant; but to maintain peace forever, relying on mandatory Regulations is difficult to achieve.

Different ideologies will inevitably trigger contradictions among the races; and if contradictions are not resolved, even if surface warfare is prohibited, new wars will certainly appear again in another form.

Therefore, I, Rick, representing the Human Race, propose that contradictions between races can be resolved through the method of game contests.

For example, a game of Black and White Chess; the win/loss of Black and White Chess decides the win/loss of the contradiction; no need to stake lives anymore, absolutely must not produce sacrifices..."

Rick gave an example to explain; after introducing the rules of Black and White Chess, the pale-faced noble-looking Vampire Race spoke up mockingly: "Using chess to decide win/loss — this is simply a statement as child's play."

But the words barely fell when Shuvi spoke: "We Ex-Machina, the race created by the Unique God Fanlou-sama in the past, express agreement with the Human Race representative's proposal."

Vampire Race: "..."

"Dwarf Race agrees."

Ronidraunir hurriedly said.

Given the situation where Ex-Machina and Human Race are already together, and behind them are Broly-sama who defeated Artosh, and Fanlou-sama whom Broly-sama elevated to the Unique God Treasure Throne.

As long as the Human Race and Ex-Machina representatives do not intend to destroy the Dwarf Race, then Delaunir will guarantee he mindlessly casts an approval vote.

Following the superiors' pace — only thus can one progress, maximizing the guarantee of one's own race's interests.

"This proposal is not bad; it can be adopted."

As the meeting's host, Shinclair Balon nodded and passed Rick's proposal.

But in specific execution aspects, the Beastman Race, ranked lower in the Sequence race ranking, raised an objection.

"Deciding win/loss without sacrifices sounds very good, but the problem is we lower races with no Spirit Power adaptability — it is impossible for us to beat you upper races at chess.

Then doesn't this contest method amount to depriving our race of its only weapon, fangs and claws, and then letting the Beastman Race be slaughtered at will?"

"You have fangs and claws, yet you Beastman Race are still trash?"

"Lord Azriel, we Beastman Race cannot compare to you Flügel, but when facing Other Races below the Sixth Sequence, we can still rely on Blood Rage individuals to fight it out."

The Beastman Race representative, that Fox Tribe Chief, after finishing speaking, also cited her backing: "Our tribe has worshipped Fanlou-sama for generations; Fanlou-sama may not be our Creator, but we Beastman Race have long treated Fanlou-sama as our God."

【Good good good, even the Beastman Race can drag in a connection with the Unique God?】

The Fairy Race representative thought thus, then looked at Shinclair Balon, declaring on behalf of her own race: "Since the Unique God and Broly-sama chose the Flower Crown Consort as the host of this All-Race Council.

Then we Fairy Race trust the Unique God and Broly-sama's Wisdom, and are willing to unconditionally support Flower Crown Consort Shinclair Balon; every proposal she approves."

The county magistrate is not as good as the current manager; the Unique God and Broly are at too high a level; the one who will obviously grasp world authority in the future is Shinclair Balon.

Cannot climb a connection with the Unique God, nor with Broly-sama; but can't we climb a connection with the Elf Race's current Flower Crown Consort?

You must know, our Fairy Race have been allies with the Elf Race for generations, maintaining a friendly Alliance relationship.

Having already been briefed by Shinclair Balon and figured out what was best for their own race, the Fairy Race representative made the wisest move.

And the other races who truly couldn't drag in a connection mostly chose to echo in agreement.

Only the Giant Race's representative, the Giant King, clearly stated that the Beastman Race's words made sense.

Being a race whose members are mostly brutes as well, they had no desire to play Black and White Chess, using their own extreme weakness to challenge other races' strengths.

"The game that decides the outcome need not be limited to Black and White Chess; it can also be other things, for example, a contest of strength like Arm Wrestling, or a contest of speed like a footrace — in short, a contest conducted under conditions both parties acknowledge……"

Rick had anticipated the various races' doubts and soon offered a detailed explanation; after discussion with the Giant Race and Beastman Race, the method of resolving contradictions through games was expanded to include games both parties acknowledge — if one party does not acknowledge it, it cannot be forced to proceed.

However, while this satisfied the Beastman Race and Giant Race, it caused the Vampire Race to raise an objection: "Our race's survival requires draining the blood of other races.

If, when preying on other races, we must obtain their consent by winning a game.

Then even if the prey is stupid again, they would not play this kind of game with us, right?"

The other race representatives said nothing, merely all looking toward the Sea Race's representative.

The Vampire Race representative likewise looked over and actually discovered a potential fool who might play this kind of game with them, the Vampire Race.

"What's wrong, why is everyone looking at me?"

"Your Sea Race's reproduction, I recall, also requires attacking and kidnapping the opposite sex of other races; if in the future you must first play a game before you can kidnap the opposite sex of other races, can you Sea Race make the prey agree?"

The Vampire Race asked this, and only then did Lorelei belatedly realize the severity that the future world's method of resolving contradictions would be playing games.

"Can we compete on who is better-looking?"

The mermaid soaking in seawater held in a wooden basin crafted by the Forest Elf Race asked.

"Each race's aesthetic differs; the Dwarf Race likes those with beards — do you Sea Race have beards?"

Lorelei shook her head.

"Moreover, even if aesthetics align, probably only those better-looking than you Sea Race would be willing to contest this with you Sea Race."

This peace conference lasted a day and a night; each major race either had its own desires or faced survival difficulties.

After these were raised, through repeated discussion, a Peace Alliance was reached that everyone could barely accept.

①【All major races of the world, excluding the Demon Race, shall henceforth not harm one another.】

②【Swearing upon the Peace Alliance, whether contradictions arise between races or individuals, if they wish to be resolved, they must be resolved through games under the premise of not endangering the lives of either party.】

③【Games may be self-devised, but must obtain the acknowledgment of both parties; before the contest, both parties may propose mutually acknowledged stakes.】

④【The results of game contests shall receive the Alliance's acknowledgment and protection; the stakes agreed upon before the contest will without fail be executed.】

⑤【Due To individual Species, after being unable to mutually Harm each other, difficulties in the Aspect of Survival may Appear; the remaining Species will provide a certain degree of assistance.】

⑤【Because certain individual races may encounter survival difficulties after being unable to harm one another, the remaining races shall provide a measure of assistance.】

⑥【Establish the All-Universe United Council as the highest authority maintaining world peace, possessing the right to administer the world on behalf of others.】

⑦【The above Peace Treaty is the initial establishment; hereafter an All-Universe United General Assembly shall be held every year, each race's representative shall have the right to raise objections, decided by vote whether to pass proposals.】

⑧【The Unique God Fanlou-sama and Broly-sama each possess a one-vote veto; other races, those of Sequence Six and above possess two votes, races below Sequence Six possess only one vote.

Apart from race votes, the Divine Spirit Race and the All-Universe United Council President each possess two votes, as independent votes separate from races.

Additionally, Broly's Wife, Shinclair Balon, Jibril, and Corone each possess one extra vote.】

⑨【Final interpretation rights of the Peace Treaty belong to the Unique God Fanlou-sama and Broly-sama.】

After the meeting, Shinclair Balon obtained the position of Council President of the All-Universe United Council, and the situation was not too similar to what she had imagined — one person below, ten thousand living beings above — although she enjoyed rights on par with a typical Divine Spirit Species, these rights were nevertheless restrained.

After the conference, Shinclair Balon obtained the position of All-Universe United Council President, and the situation was not too similar to the "one person below, ten million lives above" she had imagined; although she enjoyed rights on par with a typical Divine Spirit Race, this authority was constrained.

Among the race representatives attending the conference, aside from the truly idiotic Sea Race, the other race representatives all counted as having brains.

Races not belonging to the Forest Elf Alliance tacitly chose to constrain Shinclair Balon, preventing a potential situation of the Forest Elf Race dominating alone.

Naturally, even constrained, the votes in Shinclair Balon's hand reached 9: the Forest God and Forest Elf Race 3, the allied Fairy Race's God and Fairy Race 3, plus her own 3 as Council President and Broly's Wife identity combined.

9 votes sounds like a lot, but it was still not enough for Shinclair Balon to want to have the final say.

The Fantasy Race has two votes; because no other Fantasy Race attended the conference, Abont Heim is the representative.

And Abont Heim stands together with the Flügel Race, directly bringing the Flügel Race's race votes, plus Jibril's individual vote, to as many as 5.

The Dwarf Race and Giant Race are on good terms, holding 4 votes.

The Human Race, led by Rick, allied with the Ex-Machina Race, and there is also a Broly's Wife among Humans, yet they also have 3 votes.

The remaining upper race is the Dragon Spirit Race; theoretically the Dragon Spirit Race is the Forest Elf Race's ally, but this ally relationship is unstable — especially since the Wise Dragon King is the race representative and has no friendship with the Forest Elf Race.

Lower races: the Demon Race is excluded, the Moon Chant Race is absent and has no votes, leaving only the Vampire Race, Beastman Race, and Sea Race — three races with 1 vote each.

Shinclair Balon calculated and discovered that the three lower races easiest for her to win over, even if won over, would at most equal the combined votes of the other three major factions; but if she could pull the Dragon Spirit Race over as well, she could firmly control this All-Universe United Council.

"The world's rules have changed, but the advantage remains with me!"

Shinclair Balon did not run to Broly to demand anything; she decided to rely on her own arts of power and strategy to control this world.

But rice must be eaten mouthful by mouthful; Shinclair Balon first set her sights on the three races with lower Sequence rankings, first the Vampire Race.

They have the blood-drinking problem; even if the Demon Race can serve as blood food to resolve it, because the Spirit Power concentration in the Demon Race's blood is higher than the Vampire Race's, it would injure the Vampire Race that drinks their blood, so……

"We Forest Elf Race possess a unique Purification Technique that can help you Vampire Race lower the Spirit Power concentration in Demon Race blood, allowing you to drink worry-free blood — but this assistance is not gratuitous; I need your Vampire Race's support……"

Shinclair Balon proposed trade terms to the Vampire Race representative, but unfortunately it was ruined by the Dwarf Race.

"We Dwarf Race also possess extremely high research capability; we can develop a device to filter excess Spirit Power from blood and gift it to you for free — that's right, no need for your race votes, only need you to not join any faction."

Delaunier offered even more favorable terms, causing the Vampire Race to refuse Shinclair Balon's olive branch.

But in Shinclair Balon's recruitment of the Beastman Race, the Dwarf Race had no way to intervene.

During the Great War, the Beastman Race and Dwarf Race had extremely poor relations; the Dwarf Race always used developed weapons on the Beastman Race.

The enemy of an enemy is a friend; Shinclair Balon needed only the condition of providing supplies to easily bring the Beastman Race into the Forest Elf Race's faction.

As for the Sea Race, their reproduction is too special — they need to drain the souls of males of other races and perform recombination conception inside the body.

Dwarf Race technology fundamentally cannot solve their trouble, nor can they accept the trade method of providing clan males for Sea Race reproduction; they could only watch the Sea Race throw themselves into the Forest Elf Race's embrace.

Naturally, the Forest Elf Race also cannot provide males to the Sea Race, but backed by the Forest God, they can directly provide the souls the Sea Race needs for reproduction — Gods can author life; making her own God suffer a bit to pave the way for her ascent to the pinnacle of power.

"If your decisions will not destroy this world's hard-won peace, I am willing to give you my vote."

And when Shinclair Balon approached the Dragon Spirit Race, Lei Jin Lai Wei spoke thus.

【121】 This Dragon King saw through Shinclair Balon's intense desire for power.

However, she did not feel disgusted with the other party; as long as Shinclair Balon could shoulder the responsibility that came with great power, that was enough.
