After exiting the System Hotel, Fang Ning summoned the green-skinned frog.
"Little Frog, you said that the next opening of the Divine Gate would be a month later. It's been more than twenty days now. There's not much time left."
The green-skinned frog jumped out and blinked its big eyes. "Don't worry, Master. Although it's dangerous this time, there are many idiots on Earth. It'll be better to bring more scapegoats in."
Uh, this fellow was not a kind frog. How could something produced by the Heavenly Axiom be kind? Kindness was a concept after the emergence of civilization.
However, its loyalty was commendable. Fang Ning thought about it and asked, "Let's not talk about this first. Let me ask you, can the world that the Stairway leads to be changed?"
"Yes, but it'll cost Heavenly Merit …" The green-skinned frog said readily.
"See, Sir System, isn't the Heavenly Merit an IOU?" Fang Ning said proudly.
"Hmph, it's no different from an IOU. It's all virtual and can't be exchanged for artifacts or treasures." Sir System said angrily.
"In your dreams …" Fang Ning snorted and said to the green-skinned frog, "Then ask, how much will it cost to change the location of this Divine Gate event to the World of Spirits and Souls?"
The green-skinned frog was stunned. After a while, it said, "Axiom Daddy said it'll cost thirty thousand Heavenly Merit."
"What?" Sir System was infuriated. "I've only saved sixty-five thousand Heavenly Merit Points up until now! How dare it be so ruthless. Tell it, three hundred at most, nothing more! "
The roar echoed in the System Space.
The green-skinned frog trembled and hugged its head with its two short legs. Fang Ning felt sorry for it.
It was probably recalling the scene when it was beaten by Sir System. Unlike him, Sir System was ruthless!
From the first time they met, Fang Ning knew that it was a merciless System …
"This isn't the frog's fault. Why are you so angry?" Fang Ning was speechless. He then patted the green-skinned frog's head. "Don't be afraid. With Master here, it won't do anything to you. Just talk to the Heavenly Axiom."
The green-skinned frog recovered from its fear. After a while, it replied, "I can't, Master. Axiom Daddy is biting very hard this time."
"Damn it, how dare it choke me like this!" Sir System was even angrier.
"It can't be helped. Every dog has its day. The last time you sold it the Fire Star's Core, didn't you also stop it?" Fang Ning was able to accept it.
Before hitting someone, you have to think about how you will get hit in the future. Don't be like some people who complain after getting hit.
"You, whose side are you on?" Sir System was exasperated. "Although I asked for a high price, I didn't say it was non-negotiable."
"Of course I'm standing on the side of fairness and justice," Fang Ning said confidently. "You don't give me money anyway, and you bully me every day. Now, you won't even give me a false reputation."
Sir System immediately said guiltily, "Then I won't bully you anymore in the future, and I'll let you have the reputation. Hurry up and give me an idea, we can't let this idiot Heavenly Axiom bully us."
"Hahahaha, you've finally lowered your head. Now, let me think about it." Fang Ning smiled proudly.
As expected of the Heavenly Axiom, if there was no common external enemy, people on the same side would not stop fighting each other. This was the unbreakable truth.
"Then think carefully … Do you want me to help you eat two Honey-flavored Pills to nourish your brain?" Sir System flattered.
"Cut it out, I'm sick of it." Fang Ning waved his hand and fell into deep thought.
After a long time, he slowly said, "The Heavenly Axiom suddenly demanded half of our Merit Reserve. In my opinion, there are two reasons for this."
"Hurry up and say it." Sir System urged.
"First, it thinks that it has a monopoly on technology and no one else can enter the World of Deadly Souls."
"Second?" Sir System asked.
"Second is …" Fang Ning's face suddenly turned gloomy, and his tone became cold. "In its heart, our importance to it has been greatly reduced. This is because the newly emerged Dual Element Society will soon cultivate God-level powerhouses who are on equal footing with us."
"Damn it, I only thought of the first reason, I didn't think of the second one. If it wasn't for my hard work, it wouldn't have survived the early crisis, and Earth would have become a doomsday world! They don't even care about our past contributions! They're obviously burning the bridge after crossing it! "Sir System said indignantly.
"Hmph, all those in power are like this. Those who don't burn the bridge after crossing it are not qualified to be leaders." Fang Ning shook his head. "There's no one like me who's as softhearted and sentimental as I am."
Sir System did not speak for a long time. It was obvious that this was a big blow to it.
Fang Ning did not speak either. For a moment, the System Space fell into silence. The only sounds left were the crackling of the fire in the alchemy room and the clanging of the iron in the blacksmith's forge.
After a while, Fang Ning's eyes lit up and he said confidently, "I have an idea. First, move the project that studies vitality conversion to the Draconic Arcane Realm. Don't leave it in Morality City."
"Why?" Sir System was puzzled.
"Hmph, it's not safe there," Fang Ning said. He then continued, "After you're done with this, don't stay on Earth for a few days. Go to Zhi Nan's planet for an investigation, and leave the rest to me."
…
In space, on a planet 600 light years away from Earth.
Compared to the last time he came back, more than half a month had passed. The changes this time were greater.
On the surface of the ocean, large patches of red and green algae had appeared. There were also some insects jumping on the surface of the water.
Looking from space, the entire planet was already filled with signs of life.
It was different with someone controlling it. Compared to natural evolution, it was thousands of times faster.
In fact, nature was not necessarily perfect. On the contrary, there were many places that were purely natural, but they were not suitable for human survival.
Only after being modified by humans could the environment be truly suitable for human survival. However, excessive modification was another matter.
"Not bad, this is the second world of Earth. Moreover, it's easy to paint a picture on a blank piece of paper. Its future development will definitely be better than Earth's. As the saying goes, the pupil will surpass the master, and the pupil will surpass the master." Fang Ning praised Monk Zhi Nan sincerely.
"Hehe, Venerable One, you're being humble. Earth has developed for billions of years and has a deep foundation. Although the natural conditions here are better, in comparison, there's still a huge difference." Zhi Nan shook his head.
"Although Earth is good, it's a pity that the leaders have started to become complacent when they've just achieved some success. They're content with a little wealth and lack ambition. They're even jealous of the talented, just like the Upper Realm that's on the verge of collapse. Compared to this place, there's a lack of vigor in their bones, and this is precisely the most important thing." Fang Ning said seriously.
Black Robe, who was following behind, was slightly stunned when he heard this. He could not help but think, 'Can you believe what you're saying?
Isn't the biggest leader on Earth now you, Vigilante A? '
However, Zhi Nan only smiled slightly and did not say anything.
After Fang Ning finished speaking, he secretly said to the System, "When you go back, pass those images to Anderson. Let him edit them and send them to Cang Gongzi as a promotional video for Morality City. It'll warn everyone to guard against arrogance and rashness, to always be humble and cautious, and to have a positive attitude."
The System was instantly confused. "What's the point of this?"
"If you want to know what the point is, you'll understand if you flip through the historical and international news yourself." Fang Ning was too lazy to explain.
"I don't understand, I don't want to flip through it." The System directly refused.
…
A day later, in the System Space.
The green-skinned frog suddenly jumped out and said in surprise, "Axiom Daddy just told me that three hundred Heavenly Merit Points is enough."
"What?" The System was even more shocked. "Mr. Rich Boss, what kind of trick is this? I'm just a simple and honest System, I really don't understand it. "
"Are you playing dumb again?" Fang Ning said impatiently. "This is the simplest hint. A hint, do you understand?"
"I understand. Brilliant, truly brilliant." The System was very impressed.
"Keep pretending. I don't believe that you can't understand this trick. It's just that it won't be effective even if you do it. The Heavenly Axiom doesn't know of your existence." Fang Ning said in disdain.
"Sigh, I really don't understand. You humans have too many tricks. Even if I have 13 threads and run them 24 hours a day, I won't be able to finish them." The System said resentfully.
"As if I'll believe you." Fang Ning muttered. He would not be tricked by this fellow now.
