Chapter 272: Create a Race When Population is Insufficient
Exile planet.
Inside the flying treasure.
As Bai Ruo Xin revealed everything, Yi Chen finally gained a clear understanding of the human federation and the entire star cluster’s situation.
This made him feel a sense of excitement.
Pressure and opponents were never things he feared.
His deepest concern had always been whether there were truly other life planets beyond this one.
In the vast universe, among billions of stars, he felt directionless and had no goals.
Because of this, the appearance of the Angelic Beings assassin surprised him immensely.
The information and data Bai Ruo Xin provided opened his eyes, and his ambitions swelled to a degree that felt like they might burst from his chest.
The only disappointment was that Bai Ruo Xin did not know about the Tree-Dwelling Tribe’s information or the changes in the situation outside the exile planet in recent years.
This severely affected his judgment, making it difficult for him to formulate appropriate follow-up plans for development.
Without a doubt, the first step was to gather more information.
With Bai Ruo Xin unable to contact the Revival Army and the Revival Army likely unable to break through the human federation’s blockade, he had to leave the exile planet and infiltrate the human federation.
Having more intelligence and understanding both sides would always be the foundation for all development and response plans.
However, to leave the exile planet quietly and infiltrate the human federation, he would likely need to break through to a new major realm first.
Otherwise, he couldn’t pass through the cosmic storm zone and would find it difficult to evade the human federation’s monitoring.
It all depended on whether the Tree-Dwelling Tribe and the human federation could give him enough time.
Until he had more information, he could only rely on luck.
Next was the development of the Great Flame Kingdom.
To compete for supremacy in the cosmos, the strength of the Great Flame Kingdom was crucial.
He had a well-developed plan for increasing the average strength of its citizens, with the most effective method being to create "Cave Paradise."
However, even the "Cave Paradise" could only cause a rapid increase in the average strength of the citizens.
It could not change the fact that the Great Flame Kingdom was suffering from a population shortage.
Currently, the population of the Great Flame Kingdom was just over three million.
According to the data provided by Bai Ruo Xin, the human population on the entire exile planet was only about ten million.
For the exile planet, this population was already somewhat insufficient.
Let alone in the entire galaxy or even the star cluster.
Those who are not of my race must have different hearts!
This was a principle Yi Chen had held onto for a long time.
But now, he intended to make some slight changes.
In a situation of insufficient population, he aimed to cultivate a new race as a vassal of the Great Flame Kingdom.
A new race.
The Demon Race!
His idea was to create something from nothing, to study the body structure of the fierce beasts and develop a set of skills suitable for all fierce beasts to practice, thus cultivating a Demon Race.
In this way, he would not be a demon himself, but rather the ancestor of the Demon Race.
Through teaching these skills, he would also be able to control the limitations of the Demon Race.
His influence would only be second to that of the citizens of the Great Flame Kingdom.
According to the information provided by Bai Ruo Xin, on both the galaxy and the star cluster level, there were vast numbers of fierce beasts surviving on almost all life planets.
If this plan to create the Demon Race could succeed, it would mean that the Demon Race would continuously emerge, starting with strong abilities.
This would perfectly address the early shortcomings of the Great Flame Kingdom’s low population and insufficient military strength.
Undoubtedly, this was a radical idea that would astonish everyone.
But Yi Chen felt at least a fifty percent certainty about it.
His greatest confidence came from the constantly increasing talent bonus, which granted him a terrifying ability to create skills.
Moreover, this was achieved despite his lack of information.
He did not realize that in this star cluster and even in other star systems, aside from a few races like humanity that evolved from ordinary creatures, the majority of races evolved from fierce beasts.
Even the Tree-Dwelling Tribe was the same.
However, the ancestor of the Tree-Dwelling Tribe was simply a towering tree that condensed fierce beast crystals, making it a plant-type fierce beast.
Whether it be animals, plants, or even certain objects, as long as they absorbed spirit energy and gained wisdom, and refined fierce beast crystals, they could be classified among the fierce beasts.
Those that hadn’t condensed crystals but possessed wisdom and consciousness were categorized as special life forms.
For example, the will of heaven or the spirit intelligence born from various spiritual artifacts belonged to this category.
If Yi Chen had known this information, his confidence in creating the Demon Race would not only remain, but it would be even higher.
Because it would prove that fierce beasts could indeed break through the level 100 limit.
“Swamp crocodile, what’s the current situation?”
Yi Chen suddenly asked.
“Performance is excellent. Just as the Country Lord predicted, this big crocodile is afraid of death yet clever and cunning, ensuring that its fierce beast subordinates remain brave and fearless.”
Bai Ruo Xin said with some emotion, “This big crocodile, as the commander of the fierce beast army, would normally lead a cowardly army. Yet it has turned expectations on their head and led a group of brave and fearless fierce beasts.”
“It has also improved its own strength tremendously by following the Country Lord’s orders and piling up any resources that can boost fierce beast strength. According to the Federation Military’s ratings, it should have surpassed level 80 by now.”
“That’s not enough. Notify the Political Council to see if there are any ways to speed up its improvement. If there are, pour in whatever resources necessary.”
Yi Chen replied without hesitation.
If he could truly create and cultivate the Demon Race, it was certain that he would become the supreme ruler of the Demon Race and give himself a title like the Supreme Demon Ancestor.
But since he didn’t have time to manage even the Great Flame Kingdom, he certainly couldn’t take care of the Demon Race.
He would need to find a representative, someone like a Demon Emperor, Demon King, or Demon Ruler to be in charge of the Demon Race.
Originally, Little Gold Ball was the best candidate.
Because the chance of Little Gold Ball betraying him was almost zero.
However, after learning that fierce beasts could only reach level 100 at most, he became convinced that Little Gold Ball, despite having crystals, wasn’t a fierce beast.
Instead, it was a descendant of a race that hadn’t changed its method of spirit energy reserves.
With an immortal body, it rapidly rose from level 1 to over level 50 in just a few years, but even at the limit of full-level fierce beasts, its abilities and growth rate shouldn’t have reached that level.
Yi Chen also vaguely sensed that level 100 was definitely not a barrier for Little Gold Ball.
Since Little Gold Ball wasn’t a fierce beast, he couldn’t be a non-demon making another non-demon the Demon Emperor.
It would be better to let the Political Council manage the Demon Race directly.
Moreover, Little Gold Ball didn’t have the wits or capability to be a Demon Emperor.
This little creature was still a mischievous child at this stage and didn’t want to leave his side.
Thus, the swamp crocodile became the best candidate.
This big crocodile was clever and smart. Its previous attack on the Sea Breeze Tribe had already proven its excellent decision-making ability in critical moments, allowing it to make the right judgments.
This was also why Yi Chen decided to train this big crocodile to be the commander of the fierce beast army.
Such a subordinate was both difficult to control and the easiest to control.
When he, as the leader, lacked sufficient means and strength to suppress it, such a subordinate would undoubtedly stab him in the back at the most crucial moment.
But when he grasped the other’s lifeline and had enough strength to suppress it, such a subordinate would absolutely remain loyal, showcasing its abilities to the fullest.
At critical times, it would choose to fight to the death without any hesitation.
With Yi Chen’s determination and ambition, at this developmental stage, he would only hope for more subordinates like this and wouldn’t feel wary or hesitate to reuse them.
“In the end, this is your punishment!”
Yi Chen raised his eyes to look at Bai Ruo Xin.
“I think we should discuss how to punish those fake heavy criminals first…”
Bai Ruo Xin looked at Yi Chen with a plea, trying to deflect blame.
“They’re not in a hurry!”
Yi Chen shook his head. With incomplete information, the follow-up plan to break the situation hadn’t been finalized yet.
Moreover, many fake heavy criminals had already become high-ranking leaders in the Great Flame Kingdom, and quite a few were sent by factions from the Federal Parliament and Military.
In this situation, for the sake of interests, he decided to temporarily set it aside.
“Your punishment is to revoke your title and earn your redemption through merit!”
“Okay!”
Bai Ruo Xin almost burst into cheers.
She knew that Yi Chen had ultimately chosen a small punishment with a big lesson.
The first batch of noble titles in the Great Flame Kingdom, while being a supreme honor, didn’t matter much to her.
What worried her most was the cancellation of her position as the leader of the Intelligence Organization.
