Chapter 510: Who Did It Really Belong To

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ten days later, the yellow light that pervaded the Lunaette had finally dispersed entirely. The powerhouses of the various clans that had arrived for the expedition could finally enter the atmosphere.

They did not possess the courage that Vigilante A had, so they did not dare to enter the light that was obviously some sort of protective layer.

Everyone wanted another person to explore the place first; in the end, nobody dared to become the first person to rush in. They merely looked in from the outside because as opposed to obtaining land, safety still came first.

Although these powerhouses may not possess extraordinary intellect in actuality, they were still better than regular folk.

Now that the yellow light had dispersed, the various powerhouses rushed forward like hungry dogs at food.

After all, this territory was personally pulled over by the Heavenly Axiom, so the significant implication of that could be easily understood by everyone.

It was just as the saying went— punishment will be due if one refuses a gift from the Heavens, disaster will follow if one refuses to act when the time is right. 1

Which of the powerhouses that could enter outer space without a suit were not of Pond-level and were able to communicate with the Heavens?

The least they could do was indistinctly sense the Will of the Heavens, so even if they have never heard that saying before, they would still possess a similar understanding.

If they did not seize the opportunity at this moment, they would definitely be abandoned by the Heavenly Axiom in the future, then they would just like those species that failed to evolve.

“Master Ma, you and I are both one with Buddhahood, so how about cooperating on this new land?” asked an old monk in a yellow robe to a Taoist priest, a friendly smile on his face.

“Since Fawang has such a good intention, it would be disrespectful for this Taoist priest to refuse.” Master Ma had witnessed Tianjing Fawang’s power beforehand; when he faced the Spiritual Lunar Devils the last time, his body would probably be full of bullets if not his robe.

In a foreign place like this, getting an invitation from the other party was rare, so he would definitely have to accept.

Besides, he did not have to worry about the other party plotting against him at all since there was another person that would take charge of justice around…

“Very well. From the way I see it, the dojo 2 should best be located somewhere in the southeast. That area seems to be flushed with vitality, and I can feel a vague connection to the veins 3 down below being built,” revealed Tianjing Fawang.

“This old Taoist priest thinks the same way as well.” Master Ma looked into the southeast as well. There were several craters there that were emitting dense smoke; it was truly an unsettling sight.

Once the other powerhouses noticed the situation, they too started looking for places to build their clan gates. The earlier they secured a place, the better things would be.

In the past, actions taken early might even bring harm; after all, exposed rafters are the first to rot.

However, today was different. There was a righteous noble around and that man had said so before that the most important thing about owning land was being early; whoever was the earliest would benefit the most. All latecomers could only either pay rent or negotiate a purchase with the owner, taking over the land by force was strictly prohibited.

After briefly observing the land, the group of powerhouses did not act like they did in the Upper Realm—deciding the ranking based on battle results before distributing the territories accordingly. Now, they acted like common monkeys, sprinting around to claim a good location.

At this time, those that were proficient in escaping arts and those that were proficient in flying managed to tilt the scales in their favor as they immediately claimed areas that were flushed with vitality for their own.

However, they had no idea that the land they were currently on had already been claimed by someone else long ago…

They could use the land without an issue, but they still needed to pay rent…

Vigilante A flew about in the skies; everything that needed to be done was already done, yet the System showed no signs of leaving.

“What a waste, why aren’t these dudes beating each other up? And here I thought they would start scheming against each other in a bid to seize territories…” grumbled the System.

Could it be blamed? After all, the current situation did not allow it to farm for experience points or appear coolly with a BGM playing.

“You can claim credit for that. Unless an ignorant idiot that doesn’t know about your prestige appears, in which case that person would definitely act as you said,” pacified Fang Ning.

“Alright then, I hope more ignorant idiots appear then,” replied the System in anticipation.

“Thinking like that isn’t right at all. We must aim for peace,” advised Fang Ning.

“But I am maintaining peace, since I’ll be teaching them about justice and self-evident truths,” asserted the System presumptuously.

“Hmph, you can only bluff an idiot with those words. When we were planting those fakes, you were so much zealous about it,” jeered Fang Ning, “you didn’t act like a heroic system at all.”

“Enough with that nonsense, I still think I suffered quite a loss. That old monk just now wanted to set up the land as a mountain field, do you know how much money he can make from selling that? Since I arrived here first, why can’t we declare this entire piece of land as ours?” asked the System in exasperation.

“Ugh, that logic of yours isn’t wrong either.” Fang Ning had never expected the System would think that way. He underwent a collective education, so he had subconsciously believed that the land belonged to everyone, which meant he would never claim the land for himself.

He reconsidered things before shaking his head as he spoke, “That won’t do. The land is merely a resource. If we want to strike rich from developing it, we’ll need a large amount of manpower, so what’s the point of us keeping it to ourselves? Where are you going to find time to manage the development? Wait a minute! When Ren Ruofeng paid you for your efforts, production profits from the land after its maturity were definitely included, otherwise you would’ve never agreed so quickly…”

“Ugh, the gears in your brain always spin extremely fast when it comes to things like this… However, I’m not telling you how much he gave me,” hooted the System.

“Do you think I won’t find out just because you won’t tell me? I can just message Senior Ren on Wechat and tell him that the payment is a bit too much and should be slightly lower, so that they won’t have to bear such a heavy burden too.”

Fang Ning would never continue to be troubled by the System’s intelligence, so he had spent the past two days coming up with countermeasures.

“You’re relentless, I’ll tell you then. The payment is made of three parts—vitality materials, some performance shares of the vitality industries on Earth, and the last part was lunar land that had been predesignated. If there is output every year from now onwards, I’ll be given a 5% share. He even hopes I’ll come up here to check on things once in a while,” said the System honestly.

“Just as I expected,” comprehended Fang Ning instantly. He then said in envy, “If that’s the case, I’m afraid you might be the richest person on Earth, Sir System. Who else is like you, having the ability to do business with an entire country?”

“There’s plenty of them. All those teachers of the state, those local deities, which one of them are not provided for by their country? Even talking about the Indian Trinity is enough since they’re worshipped by the Indians with large amounts of wealth. Have you forgotten how our 18 golden mountains came to be? They were all accumulated by their believers,” retorted the System.

“Oh, it seems that I really am ignorant and ill-informed. I never thought that you would know so much more about this field than me. You really are a greedy system, it’s no wonder that you have a specialization in that profession.” Fang Ning was ashamed of his inferiority.

“…” The System was speechless.

At this moment, loud noises sounded in the distance.

“What’s happening? Why is there a monument here? It doesn’t seem to be written in Chinese, does anybody recognize these words?”

“I know eight languages, and the words on this monument are English words. It reads—All of the land on the Moon belongs to the United States of America. Nobody is allowed to develop the land without authorization from the United States of America.”

“How despicable, how could they be so domineering?”

“However, it is true that they were the first ones on the Moon, amongst humans at least.”

“Hmph, even if that is so, didn’t they say that the Moon belongs to all humans and that it’ll be a joint development? They can’t monopolize the Moon right?”

“How many powerhouses does America have? Only that half-dead old Druid is useful, the rest are all useless alchemists.”

“Ah, but it doesn’t matter what we say. We’ll have to ask that person about things like this.”

“Hmm… Will the Venerable Dragon God care about matters like this?”

“I think he will. After all, this piece of land will need to be developed sooner or later.”

“Is he going to handle this fairly?”

“I think he will. He’s the descended Dragon God, so he doesn’t stand with us mortals anymore. I think he’ll probably support the statement made by America.”

“Then I think we’ll have to bring him over here.” The discussion within the group of people then came to an end.

“There’s no need for that. I’m here.”

The System had rushed over immediately. This was terrible, it had rushed around planting monuments and stone bowls as markings.

However, somebody had beaten it to the draw. It would be losing its large amount of shares, so was it really going to sit around and let that happen?

After all, the System was not a lazy bum with severe procrastination like Fang Ning.
