Chapter 2422: The Sacred Stele Fell From the Sky
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Mag pulled an all-nighter and used his demi-god’s super reading ability to finish reading the entire Underground City’s chronicle.
This should be an internal circulation version because it started from the Underground City’s ancestors’ migration from the Norland Continent to Underground City.
35,000 years ago, a strong earthquake caused a section at the south of the Norland Continent to collapse and fall into Underground City.
The living things within the area of tens of thousands kilometers became the first batch of Underground City’s immigrants.
The Underground World was as vast as the Norland Continent, but it didn’t have as much competition from the strong races as the Norland Continent. Hence, its produce was extremely rich.
!!
After the initial friction and collision, the six races in the fallen zone reached a consensus and decided to develop the Underground City’s fertile lands together. This was also the earliest form of the Underground City Federation.
The abundant food and vast territory allowed the Underground City’s forebears to grow and reproduce rapidly.
However, the thing that sent the Underground City onto a different path from the Norland Continent was a sacred stele that came from the sky.
In the year 5,000 of the Underground City’s calendar, the sacred stele fell from the sky and the entire Underground World was lit up by its beams.
Many mysterious runes were written on the sacred stele, but no one knew its meanings.
In the past few tens of thousands of years, the Underground City’s forebears deciphered the laws on the sacred stele and began to improve greatly. Some of them began to break through to the Extraordinaire.
The earliest settlers were inspired by the stele and began to develop the Underground City’s technology. From then on, Underground City began to sprint on the road where magic and technology existed simultaneously and developed differently from the Norland Continent.
In the Underground City’s history of development, the sacred stele had always occupied an important position. Almost every era’s geniuses and changes had revolved around the stele.
The interpretation of the runes on the stele had resulted in every elevation of the Underground City’s civilization.
“This is equivalent to giving the whole world a shortcut.” Mag rubbed his chin with a thoughtful expression.
In the past 35,000 years, 480 Extraordinaires were recorded in the Underground City’s books. The detailed record showed that the number of dead Extraordinaires was 284.
In the past 10,000 years, there were 82 people who became Extraordinaires.
There were 30 people in the past 5,000 years.
It was obvious that in Underground City, it was getting more difficult to break through to the Extraordinaire level.
But even so, it was still better than the Norland Continent’s situation where no one had become gods in the past 10,000 years.
And, among the Extraordinaires who broke through in the past 5,000 years, Ferdinand was, without a doubt, one of the most sparkling existences.
In the tens of thousands of years of Underground City’s development, its political system was similar to a republic with a president. All the states formed the Underground City Federation. They were unified and relatively independent.
However, under the seemingly advanced civilization’s political system, 12 big plutocrats had already controlled the majority of the Underground City’s wealth and power.
Even though the president had very great power, he or she was the spokesperson of the various plutocrats.
The military was also controlled by the plutocrats. It was completely the money-making machine of the Big Five technology companies.
In such an environment, a young man from an ordinary background, had crushed all the geniuses from the big families like a shiny comet. He broke through into the Extraordinaire’s realm in the short one thousand years without any plutocrat’s support and became the Number One Marshal of the military.

From then on, the Federation’s military went onto the road of revolution. Firstly, the military broke away from all the plutocrats’ control. Secondly, the military began to have an extremely high autonomy. They no longer take orders from the president, but were loyal to the First Marshal instead.
Mag was completely shocked when he read that part.
Good fellow. That was a real hack, alright. Furthermore, he did it the hard way.
It was extremely difficult to reform the system, let alone the tens of thousands of years of the ancient plutocrats’ operation.
However, Ferdinand was simply too powerful. He suppressed all the disobedience violently. He destroyed two plutocrats’ families right away and killed eight Extraordinaires. He forced all the plutocrats to swallow that result.
Mag couldn’t imagine that the man who humbly asked him to roast the kebabs last night, was the man at the Underground City’s pinnacle.
As for why Ferdinand, who was so powerful, asked to collaborate with him, it wasn’t that hard to understand.
A few hundred Extraordinaires had appeared in the Underground City’s history. The plutocrat families that had existed since ancient times had very strong foundations. Some of the ancient Extraordinaires’ powers were as strong as Ferdinand’s.
All the parties had reached a balance and consensus. In the situation whereby they upheld a peaceful front, asking for external assistance became Ferdinand’s only choice.
In the military that was loyal to Ferdinand, one wondered how many of them were also loyal to a certain plutocrat at the same time.
A young man like Mag, who had a clean background and was powerful enough, was rare.
This chronicle was obviously not released externally. It introduced the top 10 most powerful plutocrats in Underground City currently, including their companies and the Extraordinaires hidden within their folds.
Then, Mag took out Ferdinand’s plan.
There was only one mission in the file: Break into the interior of the McCarthy Family. Investigate if the disappearance of Congressman Tamm has anything to do with Armand McCarthy and rescue Congressman Tamm!
Mission reward: A chance to comprehend the sacred stele.
“…” Mag.
“System, someone is snatching your business,” Mag smilingly said.
He didn’t expect Ferdinand to be that interesting and the reward for the first mission to be so generous.
After reading the Underground City’s chronicle, Mag was naturally very interested in the sacred stele.
The Underground City’s geniuses only broke through to the Extraordinaire’s realm after comprehending the sacred stele. It was obvious that this sacred stele was the greatest variable that separated Underground City from the Norland Continent.
Mag was only one step away now. If he received the chance to comprehend the sacred stele up close, he might gain something even if he couldn’t become a god.
Ferdinand had given Mag, a foreigner of Underground City, a chance to interact with the sacred stele, so Mag felt that Ferdinand was not bad.
Of course, the McCarthy Family was one of the 10 ancient plutocrats with three Extraordinaires in the family. They had continued till now from the chaotic times 30,000 years ago.
Obviously, this first mission was the start of hell mode.
Since money comes from danger, Mag quickly made his decision.
“Host, theoretically, it’s possible to become a god by gaining believers on the Norland Continent.” The system tried to persuade Mag, “But, once you enter Underground City, your safety is no longer within this system’s control. The death rate is extremely high.”
“Nobody has succeeded in the last 10,000 years, so I don’t think that your theory is trustworthy.” Mag shook his head and smilingly said, “Furthermore, going into Underground City, my current backer is rather powerful. Money comes from danger. There is no god on the Norland Continent at all. We have no way to negotiate with Underground City.”
Mag sent a message to Xi with the bangle. “Please tell him that I am willing to collaborate.”
Soon, Mag received Xi’s reply: Sure.
Mag put away the bangle and opened the study’s door. Irina was standing outside with a glass of milk as she smilingly said, “Have you made the decision?”
