In the face of Diana's questioning, Lin Zhen only sneered and called out his family.
His father, mother, and two girlfriends. After the four of them appeared, Diana was instantly stunned.
This was because the four of them were actually wearing the empire's aristocratic attire. Although they were only the lowest knight attire, they were indeed aristocrats.
"How is it? Miss Diana, do you still want to go to the dimensional universe to verify their identities and see if their knighthood is fake? "
"No need!"
Diana's face was gloomy and cold. She knew that she had lost this round.
Lin Zhen had come prepared. Not only had he been promoted to Earl, but he had also promoted his family to Knight. This way, the logic was on his side.
If she went through normal channels, she would definitely lose!
"Earl Lin Zhen, I really didn't expect that there would be someone like you on Earth. As someone from a low-leveled civilization, you have surprised me."
"Thank you for the compliment," Lin Zhen said with a smile.
"But don't be happy too early. You and your family are safe now, but can you save the others on Earth? I will sell those captured warriors as slaves. As for you, Lin Zhen, you will definitely be spurned by other Earthlings because you only care about your family. At that time, your friends will leave you and there will no longer be a place for you on Earth. Take your family and this group of pirates and go far away! "
"Miss Diana, you don't have to worry about this. You should take care of your people. Maybe one day, you will have to leave with your tail between your legs."
After Lin Zhen finished speaking, he piloted the Black Pearl and was about to leave. It was not suitable for him to have a direct conflict with Diana now.
"Don't go. You have to release Baron Ya Xuan. He is a noble. You have no right to execute him!"
"I will send Baron Ya Xuan back to China now. You don't have to worry about it."
The Black Pearl left quickly and disappeared from sight in an instant.
Diana believed that Lin Zhen would not dare to do anything to Ya Xuan. Now, she had a headache. Lin Zhen's appearance had somewhat disrupted her plan.
"I have to sell the captives as soon as possible and then go to the City of Ancient Gods to find the treasure. Otherwise, this trip to Earth will be in vain."
She gave orders to the commanders of the various fleets through the dimensional universe, including Ya Xuan.
*****
"Master, this is Diana's order. She wants me to immediately turn the captives into slaves," Ya Xuan said to Lin Zhen.
"Bring me all the people you've captured."
"Yes!"
An hour later, something happened that made Diana want to vomit blood. The captives in the Huaxia prison camp actually escaped collectively, and the reason was that the guard was drunk.
Although the Art Courtyard had reported in time that the drunk guard had been executed, Diana knew that there was something wrong with the Art Courtyard.
However, there was no evidence, and Diana could do nothing about it.
After these captives left, they immediately transformed into citizens of the Empire or the poor.
Those who were captured by the army were all important figures in Huaxia. They were either important members or high-level martial artists.
Lin Zhen's Black Pearl, on the other hand, began to issue identification cards to the people in the capital base city.
Lin Zhen currently had 200 citizen statuses and 20,000 pauper statuses in his hands. As long as they were Chinese martial artists who had reached the wargod level, Lin Zhen would immediately give them pauper statuses.
As for those above the Star Realm, or those who were acquaintances of Lin Zhen, he would consider giving them citizenship.
The pauper statuses were issued by his parents and two girlfriends. Lin Zhen personally checked the citizenship. After all, citizenship was very precious, and he couldn't just give it to anyone.
As for the ordinary people, he wouldn't give it to them for the time being. Ordinary people had no value to the army. They didn't even have the qualifications to be slaves. No one would use such short-lived and fragile people as slaves. It wasn't worth it.
*****
"Lin Zhen, this is a request from the European Union. They request 30 citizen statuses and 5,000 pauper statuses. They also express their willingness to support you in becoming the Lord of Earth."
On the Black Pearl, Su Mingyue snuggled up to Lin Zhen and looked at the message on her phone.
Lin Zhen rubbed Yue Er's hair greedily and took a look at the phone.
"I don't have that many slots for them. I want to prioritize the supply from Huaxia. Tell them that ten slots for citizens and a thousand slots for the poor are the same for every country except Huaxia. If I get more chips, I'll consider giving them more. As for me becoming the Overlord of Earth … that's not up to them."
"Merica doesn't have any higher-ups at the moment. The people who came were all chosen at the last minute, and they don't have any hostility toward you. However, the management of Russia and India seem to have some opinions about you. They've sent people to take the statuses, but they seem a little arrogant."
"Hmph! A bunch of reckless people. Don't they know what the situation is now? Still putting on airs. Very well, these two countries will no longer give out citizen statuses, only 500 pauper statuses. Take it or leave it. "
"Okay, I think so too." Su Mingyue snuggled up in Lin Zhen's arms and happily replied to the message.
"Yue Er's skin has become thicker. She only knows how to be intimate with Lin Zhen."
An Ning walked over from the control panel and teased Su Mingyue. Although she was deeply in love with Lin Zhen, she was also interested in business. Ever since she became a Knight, she had developed a strong interest in the outside world through artificial intelligence life. Plus, she was born into a business family, so she was very willing to pay attention to making money.
To be exact, An Ning was a bit of a strong-willed person, while Su Mingyue was a bit of a woman.
"His Light Element is of the same origin as mine. This is a natural attraction. It's comfortable to be together." Su Mingyue was very familiar with An Ning, and she retorted with a red face.
"Okay, okay, okay. Then can't you give me some space?" An Ning squeezed over with a smile and snuggled up to Lin Zhen's other side.
Hugging on both sides and smelling the fragrance, Lin Zhen wondered if it was time for him to get married.
But thinking about it, he should wait until everything settled down.
His two girlfriends snuggled in his arms and fell asleep in a short while. It was obvious that they were too tired during this period of time. They only felt at ease after seeing him. They really needed a good rest.
"Master, someone in the Dimensional Universe is calling you. It's your friend Chen Fenglie. He invited you to meet at Fire Dragon Mountain Bar on Jade Star. Do you want to go?" Chris called Lin Zhen.
The one here was Lin Zhen's main body. Even if it was his clone, Lin Zhen didn't want to do something like having sex with his girlfriend.
The artificial intelligence life in his main body, Chris, was cloned from his clone. Both artificial intelligence lives had the same authority, but they couldn't log into the Dimensional Universe at the same time.
After Chen Fenglie and the others were rescued, Lin Zhen immediately gave them citizenship.
It wasn't just him and An Bihuai. There was also a person called Qing Xu, who was ranked fifth on the Heavenly Star List. He was also captured in the battle with the Art Pavilion.
After these three people received their citizenship, they all went to study the Dimensional Universe. They didn't expect to find a place to drink in less than two days.
"Okay, let's go take a look."
*****
Lin Zhen didn't need to get up. His main body hugged his two girlfriends and entered a light sleep state, enjoying this rare time of rest. Meanwhile, his clone entered the Dimensional Universe.
Soon, Lin Zhen appeared in front of the Fire Dragon Mountain Bar.
The Dimensional Universe was also a world. This bar was definitely considered a high-end bar. The service environment was top-notch. It was a high-spending place.
Lin Zhen was a little worried that Chen Fenglie and the others wouldn't be able to afford to treat him to a meal.
Spending money here required Heavenly River Dollars. The few of them had some wealth on Earth, but when it came to the exchange rate of one thousand Heavenly River Dollars, no matter how much money they had, it was still too little.
Lin Zhen walked in and went directly to Chen Fenglie and the others' seats.
"Brother Lin, come and have a seat. The three of us have been walking around Jadeite Star for the whole day. It's been an eye-opener. We thought of you when we wanted to have a drink, so we found this place. Do you like it?"
The person who spoke was Chen Fenglie. Although An Bihuai and Lin Zhen were closer, Chen Fenglie and Lin Zhen got along the best.
According to their age difference, the two of them were about the same age. After all, they were less than a hundred years old. Qing Xu and An Bihuai were several hundred years old.
"As long as we can drink, anywhere is good. This place is a little expensive," Lin Zhen reminded.
"Ah! It's not expensive. If we can't even afford to treat you to a meal, it'll be too embarrassing for us, "Chen Fenglie said.
Qing Xu was a man in a Daoist robe. He was more than 500 years old, but he looked about 50 years old. At this time, he also said, "One coin is enough."
"What coin?" Lin Zhen asked curiously.
An Bihuai held back his laughter at this time. "Today, we went to the bank to deposit money, but Brother Qing Xu's assets weren't enough to open an account. In the end, he only exchanged a dozen crystal coins. He complained that after living for more than 500 years, the money he accumulated was only exchanged for a few coins."
Lin Zhen couldn't help but laugh. The currency of the SkyRiver Empire is divided into three types. Silver coins are one yuan, gold coins are one hundred yuan, and crystal coins are ten thousand yuan.
A dozen crystal coins are more than a hundred thousand yuan. If exchanged for the currency of Earth, it's equivalent to hundreds of millions of yuan. Qing Xu was quite rich on Earth, but in this world, his wealth was reduced to a few coins.
This meal seems to be Qing Xu's treat. He didn't know Lin Zhen before, but he got a citizenship. At first, he didn't take it too seriously, but after coming to the multiverse and learning more about it, he realized what citizenship means.
Generally, after a low-level civilization's planet is conquered, the entire planet is likely to be enslaved. Becoming a slum is already a blessing, and becoming a citizen is simply a rarity.
Only now did he realize that he owed Lin Zhen a big favor, so he proposed to treat him to a meal. He asked Chen Fenglie and the others to invite Lin Zhen over.
