Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Yun Hui finished speaking, an Australian walked onto the stage. He dabbed at his eyes with a white handkerchief just as he stepped on stage, as if he had just shed tears.

“Of course we want to bear all the costs of fulfilling justice. However, ever since last year, there have been all sorts of incidents happening. In order to maintain the order of the people, expenditure on various security measures have soared, and we are already heavily in debt. I hope that everyone, on behalf of the Heavens, as well as the 30 million Australians who are currently facing a life-or-death crisis, to please help us immediately. We will definitely repay the rescue costs in the future.”

The people in the crowd exchanged looks, and immediately felt very troubled.

What that man had said was the truth. Ever since the previous year’s Flame Meteor Incident, various countries have had difficult times. Security expenditures had risen sharply, and many secular institutions were on the brink of bankruptcy.

Under such circumstances, they had to insist that if they did not see the money, then they would not be able to help. Once the public opinion spreads outside, the well-established Alliance of Justice and Order would surely be finished, and the only thing they could do would be to change their brand and start again.

Yun Hui, who was left alone on the stage, sneered to himself. If a person wished to repay the money, they would first have to ask how much the debt is, not just use a mere sentence to fool others.

As someone who was fierce and ambitious, he would surely have his own way of collecting debts.

He said immediately, “I deeply sympathize with your experience. In this case, our Cloud Fog City can offer you loan services. You only need to pledge a certain area and a certain number of years of land tenure as collateral. Of course, we will take into consideration your situation, only those uninhabited desert areas would be needed.”

The three AustraliaAustralins looked at each other. This time, they had no way of saying that they did not have any land to rent. Everyone knew that they monopolized a continent. They had 7 to 8 million square kilometers worth of land, but only had around 30 million people!

Of course, most of the areas were harsh and uninhabitable deserts. However, that was only limited to the past. Ever since the Recovery of Vitality, the vitality of plants and animals greatly increased, and the overall climate and environment was evolving towards the trend which would allow living organisms to survive easily.

The land had become their greatest wealth, provided that there is a force that could maintain a stable order.

Everyone immediately felt enlightened after hearing the words and started to heap praises.

It was no secret that Cloud Fog City would set its eyes on Guifang’s millions of square kilometers of land, and then on AustralAustralia’s millions of square kilometers of land.

Since there was a formation to gather Vitality, it would be possible to gather Vitality from a large area of land to just a small area of land. The concentration of the Vitality could then be increased to a relatively high degree, and then be used for Vitality agriculture, or a sacred place for cultivating.

This obviously could not be done in China, where the land and resources were all state-owned, including the Vitality inside.

This kind of Vitality accumulating formation could only be arranged by the Truth Department, so the ordinary people who worked in the Vitality industry, as well as the production and quality of medicinal materials were far from comparable to Cloud Fog City.

Among those included Fang Ning and President Zhao’s Vitality Crop Plantation Company. The local competition was still alright, but they would show their true colors the moment they are put on international display.

China was not ahead in every single aspect. Their per capita resources have always been lagging behind. In the new era, their Vitality cultivation resources were the same.

For these kinds of things, it could not be done by other people.

Since they were only representing themselves in name. They had no authority and no capital to operate such a large-scale loaning service.

Only Yun Hui, who was the Duke of a city and had a huge monopoly of authority, would be able to propose such a method as well as implement it.

The Australians were finally left speechless. If they had been able to rely on the advantages of public opinion and morality to suppress the Alliance of Justice and Order’s words of free aid before, now that Yun Hui said this, they have absolutely no reason at all now.

They had such a large number of idle land resources, but they were unwilling to lease it out to others in exchange for precious national aid funds. If public opinion were to spread, the citizens would definitely go crazy and vote them out.

Fang Ning watched with great amusement from below the stage. If it were him, he would not be able to come up with such a ploy in such a short amount of time. Since Sir System and he worked alone, they had no way of using Australian land resources to earn money for himself and create riches.

Something like this could only be done by a large force.

However, he was not regretful at all. He was a master in his field. As long as the System continued to firmly occupy the pinnacle of power, there would be ways to earn money.

After three hours of tossing and turning, the three Australian emissaries received an urgent authorization from Australia to immediately sign the loan agreement. 300,000 square kilometers of 50-year Vitality nodes would be mortgaged in exchange for 10 billion USD from Cloud Fog City, to cover the cost of the rescue efforts.

It would be paid off after three months. Since this was a humanitarian loan, it would be interest-free.

Everyone knew in their hearts that Australia would not pay off the debt in just three months, and at that time the mortgage would take effect immediately. Of course, the minerals underground, as well as resources such as plants and animals, could not be touched by Cloud Fog City. What they used would be the Vitality on those lands.

Right now it was just like passing things over from the left hand to the right hand. The money would be transferred from Cloud Fog City’s hands into the Alliance of Justice and Order’s bank account, which would then be distributed to the task executives… the leader and his entourage.

What Cloud Fog City got was a bridgehead to march into Australia.

Currently, in the Siberian wilderness, they were annexing the territory of the remaining Nine Forces. Guifang had already fallen into their hands, which was already tens of millions of square kilometers worth of land, and now they were reaching out towards another open area of land. Everyone could only admire Duke Yun Hui’s courage and boldness, and his towering spirit.

It should be known that the population of Cloud Fog City was only around 100,000 people. This was the difference between the new era and the past. The powerful might of the Extraordinaires granted them great immense control over the land.

Take the System for example. It was just one person, but it was able to cruise around the world daily and crush all sorts of evildoers. If it were in the past, no one would be able to do something like this.

Yun Hui thought to himself, he naturally had confidence, but since he acted on the path of reason, if he really were to be blackmailed, he could just request his good old pal the Venerable One to intervene…

…

In Northern Australia, the small city of Portsland was a typical tropical town with hot weather and humid air. The entire city was submerged in a dense, green ocean.

The city was quite high above sea level as it was built on the coastal mountain range bordering the coast, overlooking the majestic Pacific Ocean.

At this time, the Black Cat Tom and his faithful and wise underling, Old Man Huang Rui, had already arrived at this small city long ago.

They were currently standing on the summit of a remote mountain nearby and were overlooking the entire city.

Currently, there was a great migration happening inside the city…

The highways leading out of the city were filled with trucks, personal cars, motorcycles, and were full of citizens and their possessions who were frantically fleeing south.

All sorts of sounds came and went, painting a scene of panic.

How fast did news travel in modern society?

After the various photos were uploaded, news of the Octopus Monster in the southern Pacific Ocean that was massively attacking humans had long since become the hottest topic on the internet. Of course they wanted to flee, no one would be willing to stay behind to fight the incomprehensible and unpredictable Mr. Octopus.

“The wolf is finally here!”

“The hegemonic position of humans is currently being challenged!!”

“Would it be the profound and complex, Powerhouse humans who win, or would it be the incomprehensible and unpredictable, highly intelligent Octopus Monster that shows its mighty prowess?”

Under such an atmosphere, a group of fearless media reporters already entered this small city that was about to become a battlefield.

Tom was naturally not concerned about these matters. It only cared about its own its own business.

Right now, not far from where it was, a sacrificial altar of wolf-men had already been built.

The Black Cat Tom said, “The arrangements for the sacrificial altar has been completed. The octopuses will arrive in an hour. You, go and see when Vigilante A will appear, and be on the lookout. His eyes are very sharp. It’s rumored that even while flying at an altitude of 10,000 meters, he can still see the shapes of people’s mouths talking below.

Huang Rui nodded, and then pulled out a high-powered telescope and looked north.

After a while, he said in a low voice, “Master Tom, Vigilante A is already here. He’s currently patrolling the sea and waiting, he should be waiting for the octopuses to appear.”

Tom raised its head to look, and saw that under the clear blue sky, the blazing tropical sun was shining on a lofty figure, which looked very similar to Vigilante A’s…

“He really came,” Tom lifted its whiskers in amusement.

Huang Rui said doubtfully, “There is something I don’t quite understand, and wish for Master to instruct me.”

“Speak,” Tom’s mood was very good. It was looking forward to a good harvest.

This time, the 500,000 octopus monsters from the Pacific Ocean it bewitched were all above Bucket-level, according to the human’s new power grading.

The potential of the sea to produce monsters were much stronger than the land in the new era.

After all, the sea was a three-dimensional ecological environment, with different aquatic creatures living in different water levels. Furthermore, land only made up thirty percent of the world, with the remaining seventy percent being the sea, the surface area was more than twice that of land.

Huang Rui said, “Since Vigilante A knows that the octopuses are coming, why doesn’t he take the initiative to intercept them at sea? Why does he deliberately wait for the octopuses to arrive at the landing site? I remember that he is someone who never wastes time.”

Tom said in amusement, “You really don’t understand anything about the Path of Heavenly Punishment. If the octopuses swim in the ocean, that is their nature, of course Vigilante A will not be concerned about that. However, if they go ashore and start attacking humans and destroying human property, they will be become mere evildoers, and would have to suffer Heavenly Retribution. As the spokesperson, Vigilante A would then receive the mandate, and would be able to act.”

Huang Rui said thoughtfully, “Oh, from what Master has said, it looks like this so-called Heavenly Axiom is obviously biased towards humans. Shouldn’t the Heavenly Axiom be impartial and free from any influence?”

Tom scoffed and said disdainfully, “That is the saying of this world which is still in the state of complete materialism. The Heavenly Axiom never existed in the past. There were only the cold laws of nature which naturally did not care about any life. However, it is different now. After the Recovery of Vitality, nature produced its own will, which is the true birth of the Heavenly Axiom.”

“Before the birth of the Heavenly Axiom, humans were the decision makers of the Earth’s progress towards glory. Their actions and fate determined the direction of the Earth. Other races might have extremely strong vitality, but they do not have the ability to change the Earth. After it was born, it naturally had to be biased towards humans.

“Of course, this is just the beginning. If humans were to court death themselves, the Heavenly Axiom would naturally select another race with potential…”

Tom returned to his senses after saying all this. It got a little too carried away and said too much. It hurriedly cursed, “Sh*t, what are you asking all this for? This isn’t something you can ask about… Continue watching Vigilante A, if he notices us, I can still run away. You have to enter the Draconic Penitentiary and keep Anderson company!”

Scolded by his boss, Huang Rui walked to the side despondently and continued watching Vigilante A’s movements.

An hour passed swiftly.

A group of dark and dense octopuses emerged from the sea and headed in unison to the nearly empty town.

They advanced at a very quick speed, and before long reached the shore.

Right now, their fearsome appearance could be seen.

There were only flat bodies after flat bodies around two meters in diameter. the cylindrical heads on their bodies had two inky black eyes exposed, which were extremely large and clever, as if they had obtained intelligence which could rival humans.

They were all born with eight tentacles, each tough and rough, and covered with terrifying white, round suckers.

Their tentacles were extremely long, with the longest exceeding 8 to 9 meters while the shortest being at least 4 to 5 meters, and was also thicker than a human thigh. Just imagine, if it were to coil around a human, how easy would it be to constrict them to death.

Suddenly, a jumble of sounds was heard coming from the several hundreds of thousands of octopuses. They all brandished their gigantic tentacles, not giving in to each other. However, they only gathered on the beach, and did not immediately charge into the city.

The Black Cat Tom currently had a very confused look on its face. The expression on its cat face was even richer than that of a human’s.

Huang Rui felt weird after seeing it, but did not dare to ask, so he could only continue to watch Vigilante A.

After a while, the Black Cat Tom’s frustrated cry could be heard, “Bastards, those imbeciles. They’re actually squabbling over who should enter the city first!”

Huang Rui hurriedly placated him, “Don’t worry, I believe they will very quickly be able to decide the outcome by force.”

This time, Tom did not reprimand him. Instead, it said helplessly, “You’re only half right… They do want to decide who wins or loses, but it is not through force. They want to hold a tug-of-war match.”

Huang Rui was dumbfounded at its words. Were these the evil octopuses? Since when did they learn how to compete in human athletic sports?
