After a moment of silence, a minister finally stood up and said.
"I'm not talented, but I'm willing to take on this responsibility."
This was a young minister with no reputation. Due to his outstanding ability and hard work, his score in the National Information Management System rose rapidly and he was promoted.
"Very well, Minister Ou, your courage is very commendable. Today, I appoint you as the Minister Responsible for the Aftermath. You'll be promoted by three ranks, and you'll be fully responsible for external affairs. You'll report directly to me …" Bai Shixin said happily.
The young minister hurriedly knelt on the ground with a face full of loyalty.
"Even if I have to sacrifice my life, I'll persevere for my clan to the end."
"Alright, you stay. The rest of you can leave first." Bai Shixin said lightly.
Later, under the envious and pitiful gazes of the crowd, the young minister received personal guidance from the king.
"You'll stay outside. If you want to be safe, you must try your best to befriend that person. You must pay him three times a day of offerings, and when you're free, visit him often. This will ensure your safety." Bai Shixin said to the man.
"Yes, thank you for your guidance, Your Majesty." The young minister listened respectfully.
Unlike modern humans, the Greater Rat Demons were very particular about the weak obeying the strong, unless the weak had the confidence to overthrow the strong.
Therefore, the young minister did not have any thoughts of disobedience. If it was a young human who was in charge, he might have done something else, such as Ma Su.
After all, Bai Shixin's words were too domineering. They had to be servile to a foreign powerhouse, which was unpleasant to hear.
…
Three days later, Vigilante A received authorization from the two major magical energy banks to transfer the magical energy crystals that had reserves of about three billion Dan units to him.
These days, Sir System patrolled in the sky while using the other 11 spare threads to absorb and convert these magical energy crystals. Every time it absorbed, it would instill a portion of it into Death's black water bubble.
There was also a constant monitoring thread that could not be used at any time.
In addition, it threatened Fang Ning to work together.
"Damn it, I don't even know the Nine Transformation Golden Egg Technique. Why do I have to convert the magical energy in these crystals?" Fang Ning said resentfully.
"Nonsense, even if you don't know it, you can learn it. You and I share the same origin, so you'll learn this ability very quickly. One more person means more efficiency, and we'll be able to expel the Shadow Spirit General sooner," Sir System said confidently.
"I'm so unlucky … Isn't this just asking Zhuge Liang to carry a stone?" Fang Ning looked at the Nine Transformation Golden Core Technique, feeling very depressed.
However, just as Sir System had said, he could understand this ability at first glance and master it as soon as he learned it. In less than three hours, he had achieved the Fourth Transformation Core Realm. A sparkling and translucent bead hovered in his soul.
This was because it was originally meant for ordinary people to cultivate. With Fang Ning's current qualifications, he could not even pretend that he could not learn it …
After he learned it, he began to absorb the magical energy within the magical energy crystals, further purifying them to the point where he could satisfy the Death God's requirements.
This step was truly impossible for others, unless they cultivated to the Seventh Revolution and became a Buddha or an Immortal.
Only a fellow like him, who shared a body with Sir System, could have the ability to purify his magical energy to the level of a God while he was only in the Fourth Transformation Realm.
From this point of view, the System was really terrifyingly powerful.
Fang Ning had been busy for half a day and could not help but slack off, so he looked at the scenery outside through the System View …
Beneath his feet was a quiet city.
The roads were empty, and occasionally, one or two tramps could be seen rummaging through the shops by the street.
All the municipal facilities, the once bustling streets, the crowded shops, the pedestrian streets, and the crowded squares were now empty, leaving only desolation …
The ground was already covered with fallen leaves and dust. The entire city was rapidly aging and dying.
Some stray dogs and cats were dividing their territories, fighting endlessly, and from time to time, some rats openly ran across the streets.
On the green belt by the roadside, some mutated plants, after losing control, began to grow unscrupulously, crawling everywhere, declaring their territory.
It was obvious that it would not be long before this place would become a steel jungle drowned in greenery and beasts.
"Sigh, it turns out that the blooming of flowers and purples has all gone to ruin like this. Beautiful scenery on a fine day, but the heavens … "Fang Ning sighed.
"Stop being so sentimental. You're not a liberal arts student, so why are you pretending to be a scholar? Hurry up and get to work. "Sir System reprimanded without holding back.
"You don't understand poetry, you're such a letdown." Fang Ning said angrily, then continued to convert magical energy.
"You're clearly singing a song, the lines from The Peony Pavilion, not poetry at all, okay?" Sir System was obviously not clueless.
"…" Fang Ning was speechless. Sir System was right.
"Hey, wait, someone down there is sending money to our house." Sir System said with a slight excitement.
"From your tone, you don't sound very excited." Fang Ning said casually.
"Uh, you really know me. That's just a little rat that's not even at Pond-level, what good stuff can it send? Of course I can't be excited. After all, I'm a System that can earn billions in a minute. "Sir System sighed.
"You don't even need to draft a script to brag, I really admire you." Fang Ning was speechless.
"What are you bragging about? According to the previous market price, the things I produce in a minute are worth hundreds of millions, okay?" Sir System said confidently.
"That's in the past. It's different now, the value of goods has to be recalculated. Even if cultivation resources are expensive, it has to follow the basic law of market supply and demand." Fang Ning shook his head.
Vigilante A quickly returned home. Sir System's eyes were indeed looking thousands of miles away …
…
Ou Shan stood in front of Vigilante A's farm villa anxiously. He had waited for a long time, but no one came to the courtyard to welcome him.
He knew that it was not that the other party looked down on him, but just as the King said, even Vigilante A's servants had been sent away.
This was how a hero should act. If it was someone else, who would care about the life and death of these servants?
Perhaps some kind-hearted people would care, but obviously not many.
Behind him were some huge boxes. Far away, there was a group of huge rats pacing back and forth, looking at him and the boxes from afar.
In the past, he would not have dared to use these rats to carry the gifts. However, now that there was no one to use, he could only let these rats carry the gifts over and order them to stay far away, lest they offend the nobles.
He waited patiently. Suddenly, a person appeared in front of him. When he looked closely, he was immediately delighted, but also a little frightened.
"Who are you? What are you doing here? "Vigilante A asked even though he already knew the answer.
"My name is Ou Shan, I'm the Greater Rat Kingdom's Minister of Aftercare. This time, I've specially prepared some meager gifts to the Dragon God, to thank you for persisting in patrolling during these turbulent times." Ou Shan carefully chose his words and said.
"Oh, what are these things?" Vigilante A asked directly.
"There are hundreds of catties of all kinds of high-quality herbs, a few tons of top-grade ores …" He recited the gift list skillfully. It was obvious that he had already memorized it.
"Oh, it's rare for you to be so considerate. I didn't expect that there's still a demon who remembers my hard work … "Vigilante A looked up at the sky and said thoughtfully.
Ou Shan did not know how to answer this question, so he kept his mouth shut.
"Alright, I'll accept these gifts. Do you have anything else? "Vigilante A waved his hand, and all the gifts disappeared.
"Nothing, I dare not trouble the Venerable One to entertain me. I'll take my leave now." Ou Shan bade farewell.
"Oh, then do as you please." Vigilante A did not ask him to stay. He said directly and flew away.
Ou Shan left in a relaxed manner. This Venerable One was really as easy to talk to as the rumors said, he did not look down on him for being a low-class demon.
He often went to the library opened by the king to read books, so he understood the hobbies of some powerhouses in the Upper Realm. For a mixed demon like this, forget about seeing it, one could not even get close to it within a few thousand miles of where it lived.
Fortunately, it became a demon on Earth, a place with modern civilization. Unfortunately, history repeated itself. Civilization once again gave way to barbarism, and order was subverted by chaos.
Ou Shan looked at the desolate wilderness, called out, and led the rat guards underground.
