Chapter 417 Funny Question _2
He had believed this claim at the time.
Because, teleportation, was truly unimaginable.
Even flight, he had only recently accepted.
"Could it be true, as stated in the future forecasts, that the strength of a martial artist… could truly become so powerful?" At this moment, Ji Lee remembered something, took a deep breath, and spoke.
"Of course it's true. Didn't they say so during the game promotion?" Lin Yun casually answered.
"Now, how are you considering my proposal earlier, Mr. Lee?" After a pause, Lin Yun looked at Ji Lee, and said.
He had now said what needed to be said, done what needed to be done. If the other party still didn't agree, he could only give up. Even though he was a master calligrapher, Lin Yun wanted to recruit him, but it wasn't essential.
Even if all the calligraphy masters on earth didn't want to follow him, he could train some himself.
He had the Cosmic Trading System. He could teach many people the knowledge of Earth's calligraphy quickly.
With a large enough population, there would always be some with a talent for calligraphy.
"You mean, I could become as powerful as the scholar in the video?" Ji Lee's face changed unpredictably.
When he thought of the scholar in the video, sweeping away enemies with a single stroke, his heart became slightly agitated. He lived a wealthy life, not lacking in money, and desired to become stronger… If not for that, why else would he be so eager to meet the owner of Qingyun Company in hopes that he could enhance Ji Lee's mental strength?
While the enhancement of mental strength certainly helped to improve his calligraphy, he realized that it could also make him stronger.
Now, an even greater opportunity lay before him.
Could he pass it up?
Although he sought confirmation from Lin Yun about the video, in fact, he had already made up his mind. After all, Lin Yun had admitted to the contents of the video. At this moment, Ji Lee believed that Qingyun Company's owner, with his immense power, wouldn't lie to him.
On the other hand, everyone has a limit to their patience. Liu Bei could afford to visit Zhuge Liang three times in his own home, but compared to the power of Qingyun Company, was Ji Lee an individual comparable to Zhuge Liang?
Ji Lee lacked confidence.
Leaving other things aside, Lin Yun's level of calligraphy was higher than his. What else could he offer?
If he didn't agree now, he might lose this opportunity forever.
At this moment, Ji Lee was greatly conflicted.
"That's right. If Mr. Lee is willing to follow me, I can help you become stronger quickly. However, please understand that this would require a significant sacrifice on my part," Lin Yun nodded and said.
"I wonder if Mr. Lin's aim is to replace Huaxia…" Ji Lee bit his lip, and finally uttered the words.
So that was the reason.
Although Lin Yun could vaguely sense the changes in Ji Lee's emotions, he didn't know what was on the other's mind.
Upon hearing Ji Lee's question, Lin Yun couldn't help but laugh.
At the same time, his opinion of Ji Lee improved.
Recruiting this man might be worth his efforts after all.
Could you trust someone who simply took up the offer to become stronger?
Even though he had powerful equipment that could hypnotize people into becoming more loyal.
But no matter how powerful the equipment, it wasn't omnipotent. If someone's nature was flawed, even the most powerful equipment might not have any effect.
"What are you laughing at?" Ji Lee frowned.
"Ha, Mr. Lee, your question reminded me of something, and I couldn't help but laugh," Lin Yun smiled.
"What is it?" Lee asked.
"Mr. Lee, you are a man of great fortune, the envy of many. Imagine if, at this time, someone were to ask the leaders of Huaxia whether they were plotting to seize your wealth, don't you think that's laughable?" Lin Yun laughed.
Indeed, if it was previously, Lin Yun might have had such a thought, but once his power reached a certain level, his perspective changed.
Was it really necessary to seek absolute rule?
What was true power?
Take his question for example. Would the high-ranking officials of a country aim to replace a village chief?
In the universe, some civilizations spanned tens of thousands of light-years, with many powerful families and forces on each administrative star. They could dominate the world or even many planets, using various methods of governance. How were these families any different from the nations on Earth?
These families and powers still fell under the jurisdiction of their civilization's highest institution.
His capabilities far exceeded any nation on Earth. Whenever he spoke, all the nation's leaders had to listen. As Qingyun Company's influence expanded and his own power grew, he would naturally become a king without a crown.
The king of Earth.
Or even, the king of this Star Domain.
As long as Huaxia didn't overstep its boundaries, did he need to focus on it alone?
At that point, Huaxia would seem to him like a mere village in comparison to a country. Fighting for world domination didn't require conquering each and every village. Once you grew strong enough, you would naturally radiate dominion.
"Uh…" Ji Lee was taken aback.
"Are you saying…" The following moment, Ji Lee's face changed as he hesitated to speak.
