Chương 74: Scripts and Civilization

After completing his "epic masterpiece," the Sword in the Sh*t, Li Qinwu returned to his 120-square-meter luxury log cabin to contemplate the future of his monster state.

"The Alliance of Intelligent Beings" —this was the name Li Qinwu bestowed upon his nation. The national flag featured a circle enclosing stars, each representing a sentient race. To maintain stability, he established a core principle: Goblins must constitute 60% of the core population and 80% of the military. Seated at his desk, Li Qinwu dipped his quill into expensive ink and sketched on parchment. He was grappling with a deep problem: What are the "higher needs" of magic creatures?

For humans, it's simple: land, housing, luxury, and self-actualization. But for monsters? He stepped outside to "interview" a few Goblins. The answer was depressingly consistent: "Boss, I just want to f*ck (reproduce)..." He asked Doggie-Witch, who drooled while dreaming of "finding ten different-colored female Kobolds to f*ck." Even Dang-Dang the Ogre only wished to find "good mates" for his kids. Li Qinwu gave up for now. Without enlightenment, their self-actualization remained tied to primitive instincts.

However, he knew that once basic survival was guaranteed, higher needs would emerge. His current task was to define"Alliance Citizenship." Unlike human babies, monster cubs are born with destructive power and cannibalistic tendencies. Li Qinwu decided: Citizenship must be earned through examination. Reading on this site?

Focus on discipline and basic mathematics (Arabic numerals). Stage 2 (1 Month): High-intensity military and obedience training.

"Civilizing" through harsh discipline to break wild habits. Stage 3 (3 Months): Strict militarization. Drill, melee, and firearm training. He implemented a "Three Warnings" rule; those who failed the final threshold would be "restarted" (executed). Only those who survived these five months would be granted citizenship and protection under the law. He handed this plan to One-Ear and then summoned Miss Hana.

"Miss Hana, my people need a script. Do you have any suggestions?" Hana naively suggested, "Why not just use the Human Common Language? It has 4, 000 years of history and is the foundation for magic scripts." Li Qinwu's gaze turned lethally cold. A script is the soul of a nation; without its own writing, a race is a tree without roots. Adopting human script meant spiritual vassalage. In the heavy silence, Hana finally sensed the danger and retreated, breaking into a cold sweat. Li Qinwu sat alone, frustrated.

Was Hana's suggestion a deliberate act of subversion or merely the arrogance of a "superior" race? He desperately needed indigenous intellectuals, but his people were still "infants" in the eyes of history. Just then, there was a knock. Hana poked her head back in and timidly offered a new lead:"Um... if you want to create a script, you could try archaeology. My mentor once studied stone tablets from the Year 1000 of the Age of Gods.

He believed they recorded the Original Goblin Script from the era before the Goblin God fell and the heritage was severed."
