Chapter 96: Busy Reproducing
The construction of Flame Mountain Academy required a large number of workers, whether for building houses or for decorating and furnishing with tables and chairs.
Once completed, it would also need many hands to maintain order, teach writing and skills, and care for the little ones.
Additionally, the tribe opened a trading market, allowing tribe members to exchange various items for spirit stones.
The influx of a large population from the Yunxia Tribe greatly alleviated the problem of insufficient positions available for allocation.
Moreover, the number of tribe members at the Spirit Law stage within the guard team was also increasing.
Cleaning up the areas around the valley and fully opening it for tribe members to come and go freely was just around the corner.
When that time comes, the trading market will flourish even more.
Of course, what captured and shocked the tribe members the most was the reward of three hundred spirit stones for each child born.
The entire Flame Mountain Tribe was busy reproducing.
Various side effects continued to emerge.
Among the four armies, those tribe members at the Spirit Law stage frequently flew back to the tribe.
Their salaries, while not low, reached one hundred spirit stones per month.
However, the three hundred spirit stones for each child born, which could be directly given to Flame Mountain Academy for free upbringing and care, remained quite tempting.
Ordinary warriors only earned thirty spirit stones a month.
They lined up, clamoring for leave, planning to use the Cloud Treading Technique’s speed to return to the tribe and work hard.
Inside the tribe, countless chaotic side effects occurred.
Yet, these were all small matters that could be resolved one by one.
The entire tribe flourished and thrived.
Only the high priest was busy every day, spinning in circles, experiencing both pain and joy.
…
The entire galaxy continued to transform as Yi Chen passed on the Method of All Laws.
Some people gained insights into the power of the wind laws and decided to go out through the windows instead of the doors.
On the main road, the fast lanes of the sidewalks were not only filled with pedestrians sprinting faster than cars.
Above them, there were pedestrians flying faster than the flying vehicles.
Some discovered the power of fire laws, leading to a dramatic increase in fire incidents, which continued to rise, overloading the firefighting system.
Others understood the water laws, causing uneven areas to become small ponds or swimming pools.
Now and then, news reports emerged about a building suddenly having waterfalls cascading down.
Various criminal activities also continued to escalate.
Of course, these were merely negative impacts, causing headaches for the Federal Parliament, which was busy holding meetings to devise response measures and amend laws.
However, humanity itself was vibrant and full of energy.
As more people learned the Method of All Laws, all sorts of magical techniques gradually appeared across various industries.
The biggest changes were happening within the military, which focused on rapid development and made the most of every second.
The power of spells could greatly enhance the combat abilities of infantry legions, and when combined, they could create countless tactics.
The genius infantry special forces established by the military had already shown early results.
Their flying ability and various spells, along with the Heaven-Slashing Technique, gave them individual combat capabilities that rivaled elite-level mechs due to their faster reaction times.
In group battles, they were even stronger than elite-level mechs.
Moreover, while the performance of the mechs stagnated, the talented infantry of the special forces could become stronger as they advanced in rank.
And this was just the infantry side.
The infantry was the military’s long-term development goal.
What truly concerned the military was the space battleships.
In their view, the space battleships remained the most powerful war machines for humanity in the short to medium term.
As the ranks of the captains, operators, and crew of the space battleships improved, their reaction speeds increased, and their thinking became more agile.
Although the performance of the space battleships did not change, their operation and response decidedly improved by several levels.
The military had gathered researchers to form a team to begin improving the various operating systems of the space battleships.
They aimed to weaken the intelligence and enhance individual operational sensitivity.
Though it seemed like a step backward, it could further strengthen the power of the space battleships.
After a century, some military leaders once again called for breaking out of the galaxy to battle among the stars.
However, they were sent to confinement the next day.
…
In the valley.
Inside the stone house.
Yi Chen shut out the world, focusing solely on practicing the Chaos Technique.
Creak!
A slight sound suddenly came from the window.
Yi Chen opened his eyes and looked toward the window.
A stunning figure appeared before him.
Bai Ruo Xin, beautiful and wearing a blue animal skin dress, jumped down from the window.
Even though she wore a dress made of animal skin, it couldn’t hide her serene and graceful demeanor.
However, jumping through the window seemed a bit unconventional.
Yi Chen couldn’t help but frown.
Squeak!
Little Gold Ball also fixated on Bai Ruo Xin as she jumped through the window.
If it didn’t know her, it would have attacked right away.
“From start to finish, the guards didn’t notice me approaching the stone house or getting close to the window. Besides, the strongest guard on the three shifts only has the strength of the second level of Spirit Release.”
Bai Ruo Xin slightly bowed to Yi Chen, showing respect while maintaining elegance.
Yi Chen’s annoyance dissipated by half.
Testing the guards’ alertness—this reason was acceptable.
“So?” he asked.
“So, the tribe leader should let Chief Guli train a few trustworthy Spirit Release tribe members to replace them,” Bai Ruo Xin suggested.
“I thought you would ask me to give you the power to select and train the guards,” Yi Chen teased.
“I plan to make that request once the tribe leader trusts me,” Bai Ruo Xin replied honestly.
Yi Chen chose not to continue this topic and said, “What about the investigation?”
Bai Ruo Xin explained, “Chief Guli concealed the designer of the scout team and the squad’s structure because this designer was approached by Hai Lan, who was instead driven to the Eastern Army by you.”
“Chief Guli feared you might reinstate Hai Lan, so she intentionally hid the information. When Hai Lan presented this idea to Chief Guli, three witnesses were present!”
As she spoke, Bai Ruo Xin took out a piece of yellow paper and handed it to Yi Chen.
Yi Chen accepted it and saw detailed accounts of the precise time, location, people present, and even rough dialogue concerning when Hai Lan proposed the idea to Guli, as well as Guli’s attitude at the time.
‘That’s a relief!’
Yi Chen breathed a slight sigh of relief.
He had always worried that Guli might be jealous of others’ talents.
It turned out this concern was unnecessary.
“Continue investigating another matter, and also look into what talents we have in the tribe. It doesn’t need to be detailed, just as quick as possible.”
Yi Chen instructed.
“Alright!”
Bai Ruo Xin nodded and left through the door.
