Starting from pirates and conquering all worlds

I want you to surrender to me.

.

The atmosphere of the pure white space solidified instantly with Im's words.

The ‘truth’ stayed there as if it had been petrified.

It seemed as if it couldn't believe what it heard. After a moment, it said emotionlessly: I thought you were a wise and calm person, but I didn't expect you to be an arrogant and conceited guy.

Im didn't get angry after hearing this, but looked at the other party with some confusion.

Isn't the knowledge of a new world, oh no, if you count more different worlds in the future, that is almost infinite knowledge of the universe, is it not valuable enough to make you surrender?

I see. It seems you have misunderstood something.

After hearing Im's words, 'Truth' immediately realized that he had misunderstood, and then grinned and said: Let me ask you, do those universes and knowledge belong to you?

no.

Im denied it thoughtfully, and then said: Isn't it because I agreed to pass through the Star Gate that you can enter the world here and have access to that knowledge?

So I only need to pay the price equivalent to 'passing through the Star Gate', because only the Star Gate is what belongs to you. Things that do not belong to you, of course, cannot be exchanged with me.

'Truth' replied unhurriedly.

And just the value of 'passing through the star gate' is far from enough to make me surrender to you. How can I say it is the truth of the universe, the whole of the universe, and one of the universe.

If that's the case, then I refuse to allow you to pass through the Stargate.

Im didn't argue with it anymore. Obviously, the other party would not give in on this matter, and then said: But I can exchange it with you for equal value with the knowledge of other worlds that you don't know!

'Truth', who originally wanted to say something after hearing Im's previous sentence, fell silent after hearing the next sentence.

a long time.

It spit out two words, cunning!

Im meaning not to make a one-shot deal with it.

Instead of letting it freely absorb the unknown knowledge of the other world after handing over the 'ticket', he should take that knowledge with him and exchange it with himself again and again.

This approach is extremely inefficient for 'truth'.

But for Im and the World Government, they can maximize the value of 'truth', and the initiative is completely in their own hands.

When to exchange and what to exchange is basically up to them, and the 'truth' can only passively wait and accept.

Such 'inequality' and 'truth' are naturally very tempting to reject.

But it is also worried that if it says too harshly, Im will directly cut off the possibility of doing business with it.

Although most people may not do this.

But judging from the exchanges so far, this Im's brain circuit is obviously different from those of the alchemists he has met before.

Haha, this is just one of the ways of exchange I provide you.

Im didn't care about the cunning evaluation of 'truth'. In his opinion, cunning was a complimentary word.

oh?

'Truth' was greatly refreshed when he heard this, and quickly asked: What else?

It didn't notice that the rhythm of the entire conversation was completely dominated by Im. It might also be that it didn't care about these things and just wanted to achieve the goal it wanted.

I can agree with you to enter another world through the star gate, and then absorb the knowledge of these worlds however you want, but you have to pay for it in exchange for several promises that you must abide by.

Im expressed some hesitant thoughts in his mind.

What promise?

'Truth' was curious.

Im said calmly: For the first star gate, I want you to promise not to do anything that will endanger or hinder me, the world government and Starfish in any form or manner.

‘Truth’ was speechless again.

You are really brave and cautious to the point of being a bit ridiculous. However, didn't you say you don't trust me before? So can you trust my promise?

I really don't believe it. Im nodded.

But it seems that I have nothing to lose by asking you to make this promise. If it is false, it means that there will be no change and everything will be business as usual.

But if it's true, then don't I have adequate security?

As for the knowledge you gained, as you said before, it doesn't belong to me and I can't control it. What's the pity?

There was one last thing he didn't say.

That is, this world of giants is not the world of starfish after all, and it is okay to let 'truth' in.

Moreover, he has lived here for more than two years, and it will not be long before he can meet the conditions of 'star destiny' and bring it completely under his control.

Seeing that the ‘truth’ cannot take away your ‘star map’ and ‘star gate’, you can only discuss it with yourself.

It shows that it has nothing to do with the 'Star Map'.

So once the 'star destiny' covers the giant world, it is really uncertain who has the final say here.

Therefore, in his opinion, this transaction will not be a loss, and both parties have achieved their goals.

All right.

‘Truth’ also had to admit that this was indeed a way for Im to put down some vigilance and achieve a win-win situation.

You said before that the first star gate, and the star gates after that, should also require me to make some commitments, right?

That's right.

Im nodded again and said with a smile: When you need to enter the second star gate, I hope you will make a promise to 'fight for me with all your strength at any time'!

Hehehe, it seems you still haven't given up on making me surrender to you.

'Truth' mocked in a playful tone.

It's not about surrendering, it's about finding a guardian for myself.

Im shook his head in denial this time.

After all, we will definitely encounter people like you in the future. But by then, if we haven't grown up yet and the other party is not as reasonable as you, it will be a disaster.

After hearing this, ‘Truth’ also felt that it made sense. Im’s idea was correct.

Fine.

But I want to remind you that I'm not very good at fighting. If the day comes, I'll do my best. It emphasized the word 'try my best' in its tone.

Can.

Im was already very satisfied, which made the smile on his face brighter and brighter. This seemed to him more important than gaining any knowledge.

Okay, you can make your first promise, please

A few minutes later.

In the pure white space, only Truth itself and the huge stone door were left. It looked at the position where Im was standing before, and chuckled.

Nerona Im, the ruler of the Starfish World Government, is such an interesting guy.

It is in a happy mood now.

After all, you are about to gain new knowledge in a new universe, and there will be more universes and knowledge waiting for you in the future. How can you not be happy?

I don’t know whether Im making money or losing money.

But it is definitely a bloody profit!

But this also made it more curious about the 'Star Gate' controlled by Im, and its own 'Power of Truth' was completely ineffective against it.

Yes.

In fact, it had already tentatively taken action against Im, but was silently isolated by the 'Star Map'.

Outside.

Im, who reappeared next to the blue lake, looked at the latest prompt that had just appeared on the 'Star Map' with a solemn expression.

[The planet you named 'Starfish World' has found information connections with other star sector universes. It has been determined that the information terminal comes from the star sector universe where the 'Teigu World' you named is located. Is it necessary to isolate it? 】

So, this 'truth' can not only establish contact with me through alchemy, but also with the alchemists in the starfish.

Im thought secretly.

When 'Truth' pulled itself into the pure white space before, the reason why the 'Star Map' did not have any reminder may be related to the fact that this giant world has not yet been covered by 'Star Fate'.

If it is not covered, it will naturally not be able to provide the 'isolation' function.

And now the reason why ‘Truth’ secretly contacted the alchemist in Starfish.

He probably wanted to get some special knowledge of the starfish world in advance by instructing one of the alchemists, but he didn't expect to be noticed by the 'Star Fate' function.

This 'truth' is really greedy for knowledge. It has just been allowed to enter this giant world, but it is secretly reaching out to other worlds.

Im sneered, and at the same time directly gave his decision to ‘Star Map’.

Haixing is his base camp, how can he tolerate being penetrated and peeked at at will?

Isolation!
