Chapter 604: The Purpose of the Summit

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

If it was still Elder Ancestor Bai who was leading the family, Fang Ning definitely would not place the responsibility on others just like that. After all, the old man bore a deep hatred toward Fang Ning.

Now that he was suppressed, Bai Shixin rose to power. This man was merely a piece of trash that was beaten up by the System, so Fang Ning was not worried at all.

Underground Greater Rats had always been engaged in underground farming at a large scale. In merely two years, they managed to be self-sufficient. It was apparent that demons could have the same potential as humans.

One important fact was that their labor costs were too low. They were satisfied at being sufficient and they breed quickly too.

In their twenty years’ lifespan, they basically did not have to worry about aging because an old Greater Rat would die within a few years.

Fang Ning once visited the Greater Rat Kingdom. Among them, there was only a small number of Greater Rats who could manage to look humanoid.

The percentage was only around fifty. Most of them looked half rat, half human, with the latter at the utmost minimal. Their so-called wages must be the lowest… Perhaps, the actual question was whether they actually earned any wages at all.

At least from Bai Shixin’s manifesto that he overheard by chance, payment of salary was included in one of his slogans.

There were pros and cons to it. Due to their short lives, it was obviously not beneficial to train a professional workforce. If an experienced worker would have to die of old age after working for a few years, that would be a great waste of labor.

However, issues regarding the Greater Rats were the least of Fang Ning’s worries. He did not want to care about humans either. He just wanted to take care of his own matters…

At this moment, Yun Hui heard Fang Ning’s suggestions and frowned. Then he nodded and said, “Venerable One, your viewpoint is amiable. All of us shouldn’t look down at those of different races. We just had a demon-human meeting. It’s time to practice it.”

Speaking about that, he turned to speak to a few landlords beside him, “Bring your trusted administrators respectively and bring this discussion to the Greater Rats. They are experts in designing geothermal electric power stations. Their rat-labor, no, human-labor is cheap and affordable. Like the Venerable One has said, we can consider letting them provide us with electricity, giving both side mutual benefits.”

Beside him, Landlord Liu blurted out, “We’ve planted this here for thousands of years. Everything in this world depends on sunlight to grow. Who would’ve thought that now to grow something on the ground, we have to provide our own sunlight? Sigh, truly, life is getting harder by the second…”

“We don’t have a choice. God isn’t on our side this time, but fortunately, we can still use technology. Otherwise, if we’re living in the ancient times, we’ll have greater problems if we can’t deal with it properly,” said the Duke of Cloud Fog City, shaking his head. “Are there any problems with ordinary crops?”

“We haven’t discovered anything yet. Ordinary crops generally require less to grow, and they have undergone careful selection by humans for thousands of years. Their adaptability is far greater than these delicate Vitality Crops. Presently, there haven’t been any notable news.” Landlord Liu rushed to answer.

“That’s good. At least, there won’t be a possibility of famine. Otherwise, we’d have more problems.” The Duke of Cloud Fog City shook his head.

“Then, cousin, what about the Great Wall Summit?” Beside him, a lady dressed up in office wear reminded him.

“Oh, I almost forgot. Go deal with it right away. Oh, by the way, include the problem we’re facing right now into the agenda.” The Duke of Cloud Fog City arranged immediately.

Soon, Fang Ning finally arrived at the official venue accompanied by several landlords.

The venue was located in the middle of the mountain. Disregarding other aspects, the location was not easily accessible. This fulfilled the purpose of the “Great Wall” Summit, which was mainly defense.

The venue was shaped in a perfect circle. The seats were arranged in layers of interlocking rings, suggesting that “round arrays have the strongest defense”…

People filled the seats in all of the rings. In front of everyone, a piece of White Paper rested alongside a simple collection of drinks and fruits.

It was very quiet in the entire place.

However, from the lips that squirmed about from time to time, it was apparent that they were all whispering to each other, discussing the meeting agenda secretly.

Fang Ning was arranged to sit down in the innermost ring.

After being in the big scenes too much, Fang Ning was not afraid. He leaned on the chair after he said down and flipped open the White Paper.

That was how one acted if one was powerful. Why did he have to fear humiliation? He could just kill off the people who witnessed his humiliation…

Fang Ning would definitely not do that. He would not consider it too. However, human beings kept on replaying the scene in their history.

He flipped the White Paper open and saw the conference agenda written on it.

“First item of the conference: The different categories of danger.”

“Second item of the conference…”

Fang Ning nodded. He was still the leader of The Alliance of Justice and Order. Despite being merely nominal in nature, he still had some professional knowledge after all.

To solve the problem of safety, you must first understand where danger came from.

“My fellow comrades, the Great Wall Summit has now officially started.”

A moderately loud wave of applause sounded. It seemed that everyone was not very enthusiastic to be at the conference.

Everyone who could attend the conference was clever enough to realize how closely-knit this conference was to their benefits, yet none of them wanted to take the lead.

To establish defense, there would be a need to dispatch people, hence leading to the possibility of sacrifice. Who would be willing to dispatch their trained members to fight demons and devils?

Except for a Hero who was obsessed to the point of entering deviatory psychosis, almost no one wanted to deal with those monsters every day.

After all, they knew they were no pay-to-win players, therefore lacking the confidence to earn Axiom Daddy’s constant favors. The more they managed to defeat, they would find that one day they would be defeated themselves too.

Suddenly, someone asked the host of the conference, “Excuse me, can I speak?”

“My fellow comrade, what seems to be the matter?” On a raised platform in the middle of the ring, the host nodded with a smile, gesturing for him to continue.

“I clearly remember that we have the Alliance of Justice and Order who has always claimed to maintain world justice and order. If this is the case, you should have just gone to them about these safety matters. Why organize a Great Wall Summit separately?”

Everyone raised her heads to look at the man who boldly denied the significance of this conference.

He was just an insignificant cultivator, an ordinary looking old man with Pond-level power.

He was probably the leader of a small martial art faction who was lucky enough to be able to cultivate to Pond-level and subsequently getting invited to this conference.

However, he obviously did not want to contribute to the cause and asked the question directly.

Everyone kept quiet.

The Alliance of Justice and Order already explained that they were giving the Truth Department an opportunity to be involved in special affairs of other countries in the name of international cooperation.

Vigilante A was the only valiant fighter there.

The other staff members in the association basically played the role of investigation and coordination, while the responsibility of destroying the enemies was usually passed over to Vigilante A.

Many people expected that this model would not last long… After all, no single institution could have sustained itself by one person. Everyone would slack off or get tired.

However, a year passed, exceeding everyone’s expectations.

Supported by Vigilante A, the Alliance of Justice and Order operated steadily. No one knew that the concept of patience was nonexistent to the System.

This seemingly inconspicuous organization had quietly solved countless problems. Due to this, the situation in many countries was stabilized. Although it was necessary to pay the entrance fee to the alliance, it saved them huge amounts of security funds. It was more cost-effective this way.

Therefore, with the exception of a few stubborn countries, more countries chose to join the alliance to solve the endless stream of special affairs in the country, in which most of them were extremely trivial.

For example, a spirit wreaked havoc in a certain apartment, killing a dozen people in a few months…The impact was horrifying, inciting fear in those who knew about it but it did not cause any real damage.

However, the problem to be solved in this conference was far greater than that by a few levels.

It directly targeted its defense against the mysterious Upper Realm.

Now, with the gradual opening of the Heavenly Axiom, the Descended Ones from the Upper Realm were getting stronger. It was obvious that the power of the alliance was no longer sufficient. It was necessary to establish another formidable department to integrate all cultivators into it, not just Vigilante A.

This was the true purpose of the Great Wall Summit.
