Where did he have any ambitions in the past?
Make some inventions, make some money, enjoy life leisurely, and be happy.
But because of various events, he had to choose to be in power.
It's just that Zeke didn't expect that a careless and obsessed person would propose a global unification bill at the meeting of the world leaders. They used threats and inducements to act soft and hard on the leaders of various countries and finally passed it smoothly.
Now that he had come back to his senses, Zeke felt incredible.
"Sir, Grace's phone number."
Jarvis spoke suddenly.
Previously, Zeke's remark to Grace was "crazy woman", but after this global summit meeting, he personally revised it.
Without her, just because Zeke proposed the global unification plan, all the countries chose to remain silent. Only Grace stood up first, stood firmly on Zeke's side, defied all opinions, and won.
Even though Zeke knows more about technology than anyone else, he is a complete idiot in politics!
Zeke doesn't understand the tactics and intrigue of politics. For example, what kind of words can be implied and what sort of conditions are promised to the other party. All of this was handled by the Phoenix Kingdom's King Grace, who is familiar with politics. She helped him a lot!
It can be said that the unanimous approval of the global unification plan is inseparable from Grace's credit.
To be honest, even Zeke himself was a little surprised at the time. But, in his impression, this ex-wife seems to be not very friendly to him, right?
How could she suddenly be like a different person? She spoke for him in various ways, and she even promised the leaders of those countries several conditions that would harm the Phoenix Kingdom's interests!
You must know that the former Grace, as the king of Phoenix, everything is based on the interests of the Phoenix Kingdom. Therefore, even if she sacrifices herself to marry him, she must keep the royal family's reputation.
But now Grace can agree to so many rude demands for Zeke's global unification plan and damage the interests of the Phoenix Kingdom. So, naturally, this makes him a little confused.
"Go on."
Zeke said directly.
A holographic virtual figure popped out; it was Grace.
At this time, Grace seemed to have dressed up on purpose. Not only was she wearing a red dress with a very different style from her usual, but she also had delicate makeup on her face. She didn't even wear a single piece of jewelry before, but now she actually wore a pair of earrings and a necklace for the first time. Grace already had an alluring appearance, but now that she retouched a little, and immediately showed a stunningly beautiful posture.
Grace saw that the communication had connected. After seeing Zeke's holographic virtual figure, the corners of her mouth could not help raising a beautiful arc, and she smiled happily.
"Zeke... Oh, no, should I call you Lord Zeke now?"
It was like she was conversing with old friends; without any courtesy, she joked when he came up.
"It's okay if you want to call me that."
Zeke said with a relaxed expression.
Grace wrinkled her beautiful nose and rolled her eyes.
"Where are you now?"
"Second Earth."
Zeke snapped his fingers and immediately expanded the holographic virtual image, reflecting the entire beautiful natural scenery behind him.
"This is the Second Earth you mentioned at the last meeting?"
Grace's eyes suddenly lit up.
"That's right!"
Zeke pointed to a shining mountain behind him and said triumphantly.
"Do you see that mountain? It's the gold mountain I dug up from other planets. The whole mountain is made of gold without any flaws. How about it?"
"A mountain so big is all gold?!"
Grace was surprised.
That mountain looked at least three thousand meters above sea level, and if it was all gold, how exaggerated would its weight be?
On Earth, this is a massive amount of wealth.
"This is just the Golden Mountain, and there are more distant ones behind it, the Silver Mountain, the Gem Mountain, the Diamond Mountain..."
"I said at the meeting that everything is available in the universe, and things that are especially rare and expensive on Earth are worthless in the universe."
These gold mountains, silver mountains, gemstone mountains, and diamond mountains were all collected by Zeke from the harvester mothership exploration.
On Earth, they are very valuable. If calculated according to the price on Earth's market, they are enough to buy the whole world and even have a surplus.
But in the universe, they are worthless at all!
Zeke rebuilt the first harvester mothership after the interstellar war and harvested a lot of materials like gold, silver, gems, and diamonds. These materials have excellent properties in some aspects and are very good for manufacturing.
It can be seen that the value of the new harvester mothership is so expensive that even if the wealth of everyone on the entire Earth is bundled together, they may not be able to afford it.
"Zeke, I used to underestimate you. Your ability is far beyond everyone's expectations."
Grace sighed.
"That it is!"
Zeke smiled.
"But..."
Grace's words changed, and a pair of beautiful big eyes stared at Zeke.
"Do you remember what you said to me after the world leaders' meeting?"
"Of course, I remember. Isn't it just to promise you a request? Just mention it as long as it doesn't violate the moral law or let me commit a crime. I promise to complete it!"
Zeke patted his chest and said proudly.
After the global unification plan was passed, Zeke agreed to express his gratitude to Grace and would obey her request.
"Of course, I won't mention these kinds of requests."
Grace raised her brows.
"But don't forget, what you said at the time was that as long as it is within your ability, any request will never be rejected. It must be fulfilled!"
"I admit all of these words!"
"Tell me, what do you want me to do? If it is to give Phoenix a little more privilege, then it goes without saying that I am from Phoenix and making it better is a matter of course. It can be challenging, but I think I can do it."
Zeke looked proud.
"This request is not challenging for you, and it is even great news!"
Grace took a deep breath, and her beautiful eyes flashed. She lightly opened her red lips and said softly.
"I only have one request...I want you to marry me!"
Zeke's proud and pretentious expression suddenly solidified as soon as her words came out.
"Marry you?!"
Zeke suspected that his ears had heard it wrong.
In front of him, isn't she the King of Phoenix, Grace herself?
Would she ask him to marry her?
'Is she joking?!'
"You must be joking with me, right? This joke is not funny. You are the King of Phoenix. Are you worried about not getting married?"
Zeke looked at Grace with strange eyes.
Gael, next to him, was also vigilant at the moment and firmly grasped Zeke's clothes.
"I'm not joking!"
Grace looked very serious.
"I admit, at first, I looked down on you and thought you were a worthless person. But then I gradually discovered that you don't seem to be as bad as I thought, and it's not that you are incompetent."
"I didn't expect that you can not only build things like Baymax but also develop Iron Man, super soldiers, and even space battleships now... But, of course, I'm not marrying because you can build these high-tech things. I just like you!"
Grace finally defended herself.
"Could it be my handsomeness?"
Zeke said tentatively.
Although Zeke does not have Earth-shattering handsomeness, after some careful dressing, he can be regarded as a good-looking male god.
"Neither."
Grace said earnestly.
"I like you because you can stand up whenever you are in a crisis. This moves me!"
"There are many people with money, power, and ability... but can they stand up in times of crisis and take the initiative to accept challenges? This kind of courage is simply impossible for ordinary people to have."
When Country J ridiculed the Phoenix Kingdom, saying it was a small country, someone even almost usurped the kingdom.
Zeke took the initiative to fight back. He killed the armed forces supported by Country J in the Middle East and appeared with the Iron Man Legion.
The Three Countries' military exercise was at the door of the Phoenix Kingdom. The ministers and elders all chose to endure it for a while and step back to see the sky. Only Zeke chose to be hard-headed and created the super soldiers, scaring away the Three Countries.
Then Country A led the economic sanctions against the Phoenix Kingdom.
Everyone was helpless and did not dare to make any moves. They could only choose to bear it silently and kept going to diplomatic negotiations, hoping to solve the economic sanctions incident through diplomacy. But Zeke did the opposite and made a mess. After a super advertising campaign, he talked to the leaders of more than a dozen powerful countries at the press conference and used controllable nuclear fusion hydrogen bombs to shock and slap them all in the face.
Especially as soon as the warp drive came out, the leaders of these powerful countries were even more frightened!
Immediately after that, Zeke was dormant for half a year, and the Nine-Countries Anti-God Alliance incident happened. Although this incident was directed at Zeke, the Phoenix kingdom was afraid after being pressured by nine world powers.
Zeke not only fought back but even destroyed their capital cities, causing the nine countries' economies to regress in an instant by twenty years.
Finally, there is the alien invasion that happened a month ago.
That time is no longer the crisis of the Phoenix Kingdom but the end of all mankind and the world!
Zeke can wave his hand and leave calmly without risking confronting the aliens. But he still chose to appear and successfully saved the world and all of humanity.
Zeke's courage and ability completely conquered Grace.
"Yes, you are indeed right."
"I am such a brave man!"
Zeke nodded shamelessly and praised.
"However, you're not brave enough to ask me in person, right?"
"If I remember correctly, you were the one who wanted to get a divorce."
Zeke deliberately talked about their past.
"I regretted it!"
Grace said bluntly.
"I think you are a little unreliable occasionally, but most of the time, you are reliable and meet my mate selection criteria."
"You said that if it doesn't violate the moral code or make you commit a crime, you will not refuse it!"
"And... you dare say you didn't like me at all. Don't you even feel anything for me the slightest bit?"
Grace obviously lost her arrogance as the lord of a kingdom but looked at Zeke like a little girl and said.
"This..."
Zeke hesitated.
It must be a lie to say that Zeke has no feelings for Grace at all. He can be regarded as a man with standard aesthetics. As the so-called fair lady, Grace is a beauty in his eyes. Zeke doesn't dare to say he likes her, but he has a good impression of her.
Seeing Zeke's hesitant expression, Grace immediately smiled exceptionally brightly.
Before making this call, she had been worried that if she asked like this, wouldn't it be too embarrassing to be rejected ruthlessly?
But now, when Zeke hesitated, Grace realized that he was interested in her, but it wasn't strong enough, so he didn't show it much.
With this, Grace was completely relieved.
"Don't worry!"
Grace smiled and glanced at Gael next to Zeke.
"I understand the feelings between you and your little maid, so I am willing to be a mistress."
Is she mentally prepared for this?
If it wasn't for Jarvis' confirmation, and he heard it with his own ears, Zeke thought that the Grace in front of him was someone else's impersonation.
A dignified king willing to be a mistress shows how low Grace has put herself.
"Uh... this matter is too big. I have to think about it..."
Zeke was a little confused.
"Okay, then I'll give you time to think about it! Anyway, except Gael, I won't let anyone be above me. This is what you promised, and if you dare to go back on it, I will never forgive you for the rest of your life!"
Looking at Grace's serious expression, he knew she was not joking.
Then, Grace hung up the phone.
Zeke has not entirely recovered.
This day is so suspenseful.
Just two hours after the announcement of the global unification plan, Grace threw such a blockbuster at him, and Zeke's head was still a little dazed!
