I Can Reap Qi Fortune from Players-Chapter 667 - 152: Sea Race Imperial Court, Strategies for National Governance

However.

Right now, these blacksmiths are not waking up in the beds of the dormitory.

Some are waking in the blacksmith shop.

Some are waking during brick lifting.

Some are waking while sewing clothes.

At this moment, someone snapped back from the huge octopus in the sky and rubbed their forehead:

"I think we can tear down our dormitory. After we log off, the Embers auto-continue doing work for us without needing to sleep."

"No way, having a dormitory means having private space."

"Exactly, only these foolish brick movers don't know how to enjoy, don't know how to decorate rooms, buy furniture and pets, work at night, and have fun in the room during the day. Isn't that delightful?"

"Ah! Makes sense."

...

While they chatted, they asked Yan Shuangying, the Artifact Spirit of the Villa Ark, to open a gap in the Protective Shield, hang up fishing rods, and start fishing.

In less than thirty seconds, a group of fishing enthusiasts enjoyed the joy of fish everywhere.

Deep-sea unknown fish, lively and jumping, were directly fished up into the villa's square, and the smell of fish spread.

This was simply a fishing simulator!

Too enjoyable.

They were incredibly excited and began slaughtering on the spot, preparing breakfast.

At the breakfast gathering, many people needed to switch accounts, log into some Embers NPCs outside, and start managing the corresponding map.

But soon, a loud exclamation was heard: "Whoa, whoa!! Something big happened!"

"What big deal, so flustered," Jiucai Rong was speechless, coming out from the steward's house beside the square.

"Look, the first-generation Ember Virus has infected the deep sea!" Several blacksmiths pointed at that group of fish.

The fish, just slaughtered, were already erupting with lots of embers, each fish ember lively and jumping, very shocking.

"This number, at first glance, is a 50% outbreak rate."

Jiucai Rong was a bit silent, "This first-generation Ember Virus, infects so fast? This damn thing, is faster than our Ark's sailing speed?"

"We've already reached the Bottomless Sea Abyss." The Medical Fairy also walked out from the medical hall wanting to study this first-generation Ember Virus.

"Maybe it's the rapid spread through biology."

Immortal Aunt thought for a moment and analyzed:

"Instant transmission between fish... Some powerhouses in this world are very fast, individual powerhouses can travel faster than our large Ark, so such transmission capability is not surprising."

"Obviously, this first-generation Ember Virus, having gone through these fish, has probably entered our bodies too." The Medical Fairy directly said.

Everyone felt nothing unusual.

But the Ember Virus's incubation period is like that, can't be observed while alive, and only manifests after death.

From this perspective.

The land of Nine-State, all the major cities, should be infected too.

The virus spreads faster than imagined.

It's estimated today, the first day of the Embers Disaster outbreak, the entire Nine-State will be quite restless!

Because they have no experience dealing with such exaggerated outbreak rates, all major cities will experience significant Ember surges inside the cities.

Specific locations should be at slaughterhouses, breeding farms, restaurants, teahouses, and inns.

"There might be chaos breaking out outside." The Medical Fairy directly said, "I'm skipping breakfast, let's quickly log in to Ximen City to deal with the disaster."

Shao Chaikun rolled his eyes, "Seems to me, the Embers Sword Fairy from your Ximen City hangs offline and handles events better than you; totally unnecessary to log in."

"You're asking for a beating!" The Medical Fairy was furious.

"Let's take these fish embers back to the medical hall for research." Immortal Aunt directly took out a Soul-Calming Banner to capture the embers.

"Leave me two, I'll use them for devour synthesis, see what the result will be." Some blacksmiths started distributing.

"Fish more if needed, there are plenty of fish here." Some people said.

Regarding the new version update, everyone was very curious.

Fishing resumed cheerfully again, letting some real-world fishing enthusiasts experience the joy of harvest.

Of course.

Their fishing activity also seemed to attract some sea monsters.

For instance, one big octopus reached out a tentacle, trying to enter the fishing gap in the Protective Shield, the tentacle quickly probing into the square, starting to attack the blacksmiths.

The blacksmiths happily picked up all kinds of crafted weapons to start a boss fight.

Jiucai Rong didn't bother with them, watching the dancing giant tentacles in the square, continuously skipped and hopped, bypassing tentacle obstacles, and came to the villa entrance, planting an update announcement sign.

A new announcement appeared.

A group of people gathered in front of the bulletin board, continually discussing and heatedly debating with keen interest.

...

Bone Demon Sect.

This place is now a new Royal City.

Re-positioned at the very center of the East Sea, symbolizing ruling over the East Sea, the supreme authority.

The entire Bone Demon Dynasty has just been established, everything is yet to be developed, but with the continuous construction by one Dharma Aspect Giant after another, it has formed as many as fifty rings of city walls.

Circle after circle, looped structure, becoming the largest size Sea Race city on the Nine-State, its apparent aura is substantial.

Clatter.

Ning Zheng opened his eyes.

The Dharma Aspect has arrived, draped in a Dragon Robe, sitting as the Bone King on the Throne.

Things have settled, no one has reason to attack this Bone King anymore, things have become much safer.

Hence, Ning Zheng came!

Moreover, his Qi Fortune Value is abundant, more than ninety million Qi Fortune Value, after perceiving no danger, he came.

What's more, Ning Zheng now possesses strong combat power in the One Heart Realm Dharma Aspect, generally following the Dharma Aspect will damage the body's soul magic, which can no longer hurt him.

Thus, he came.

Below are various ministers.

Besides Yan Shuangying, there are young civil servants from various Sea Race forces, civil officials here to learn how to manage and jointly govern.

After all, everyone is serving as court officials for the first time, all in exploration.

At this time, they are dressed in various splendid court attires made by blacksmiths, quite handsome indeed, sincerely wanting to learn the technique of dynasty management to strive for benefits for their own forces.

A young Giant Shell Race Saint Child, already transformed into a Prime Minister, wearing court attire, very satisfied with the Bone Demon Sect's fashion taste, said:

"Congratulations to the Emperor...successfully ascending the throne, the entire East Sea is basically under our control, although other behind-the-scenes powerhouses support rebel armies, they too have established cities in succession, but their prestige is too low, almost insignificant."

Other factions of Holy Lands also support some rebels in founding nations.

But after the Bone King's passionate declaration upon ascending the throne, having won the hearts of the people, the Bone Demon has invested from more than ten Sea Race Great Holy Lands, being the largest power.

The ministers before him are composed of more than a dozen races.

Another minister spoke: "However, they also seem to know they can't compare to you, they establish cities as rebels, intending to develop for a period and then rely on you to become Continent Kings, governing themselves."

Clearly.

The Bone King's reputation has almost stabilized as the East Sea Dynasty Emperor.

But those people evidently want to overshadow royal authority, each establishing a continent, nominally relying on you, actually practicing decentralized governance.

It's apparent they want to take advantage, under the Bone King's virtuous name, governing a region.

"Everyone, there's no need for pleasantries, those folks we can't control now...they want to take advantage of our interest group, sooner or later we'll have to contend with this."

Ning Zheng waved, "Now the Sea Race Dynasty is not the one previously controlled by the Dragon Race, before the Dragon Race returns, we must first consolidate the people's trust."

"With the arrival of the Embers Disaster, we must migrate the citizens of each major city to gather in our central Royal City."

Ning Zheng's words made the Prime Minister, Giant Shell Saint Child, frown, "Human Race, splitting a thousand cities, yet we concentrate in one place?"

Ning Zheng shook his head, "When disaster erupts, gathering together is always beneficial...Yan Shuangying."

"I am present." Yan Shuangying stepped forth, "My lord, here is our founding plan, citizens' disaster response guide, a total of more than seventy articles."
