Chapter 39: CH 39

In the tent, Niya was wearing a veil as she sat on a chair. She was simple and elegant without any signs of the embarrassing appearance she showed when she faced Xu Sili and Si Sheng.

The first seriously injured person was carried in. He was also a member of the Fire Mercenary Corps. The Fire Mercenary Corps were responsible for transporting the three star interstellar beast. Once something went wrong, the Fire Mercenary Corps didn’t shrink back and stood directly in front. This also led to them being the most seriously injured residents.

The first person to be carried in was undoubtedly one of the most seriously injured. In the battle, he was directly hit by the three star beast. The huge impact caused his internal organs to shatter and he had been unconscious for the past few days.

Now there was only a breath left. The medical conditions of the town were average and it was estimated that he would die if this continued.

Wen Jishan also watched from the side. He had actually been surprised when he received the message from Niya. He might be the chief administrator but he was from a civilian origin. Therefore, Niya didn’t like him very much. Rather, Niya didn’t like a lot of people. Of course, it was understandable to be condescending as a royal water healer who could snatch people from the hands of death.

Wen Jishan never thought that Niya would take the initiative to contact him and ask him to arrange the wounded. She would come over to treat the wounded in the small town. She was also pretty eager.

Fortunately, the wounded were originally centrally placed and it was convenient to dispatch them. 

From the moment she arrived in town, Niya hadn’t spoken any nonsense. She gave a few words of greeting and quickly entered the tent to start her work.

She might be showing a proud and indifferent appearance but Wen Jishan keenly saw it. She seemed to be in a hurry. This was obvious from the maids who accompanied her. What was the situation? Did something happen that he didn’t know about?

Wen Jishan pondered on it while his gaze was fixed on Niya. She might be wearing a cloak and veil so her entire body was covered tightly, but he could feel her temperament cultivated from her superior environment.

She wore a pair of lace gloves and pressed them gently on the back of the wounded man’s hands.

Everyone held their breaths. Under everyone’s eyes, there was a soft blue light. It spread from the wounded man’s hands and gradually spread over his body.

Unfortunately, the veil on her face obscured Niya’s expression. Otherwise, Wen Jishan wanted to know what type of expression she had at the moment.

After all, the one who used to not care about even the emperor was now healing commoners. Even if she wore gloves, such direct contact would make this noble lady feel uncomfortable, right? Her expression at this moment must be wonderful!

Wen Jishan thought with a bit of wickedness as his eyes fell on the seriously wounded mercenary. He was really miserable. He looked very young. It was such a serious injury. Under normal circumstances, he probably wouldn’t survive for long.

Under his gaze, the mercenary’s bloodless face recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Wen Jishan silently watched and once again felt the magic of the elementalists in his heart. It was so enviable…

He thought so and recalled what His Majesty had said before. Promoting the basic training tips to ordinary people…

Wen Jishan’s mouth twitched. He wasn’t sure if they could be trained properly but there would definitely be many people who wanted to try it! This was the opportunity!

He didn’t know who the emperor would hand it over to. The Elementalist Academy? The group of silly elementalists would probably directly expose it. It was not knowing how to use things sparingly.

Wen Jishan shook his head and felt a bit distressed. Then he thought of the speech video that His Majesty had just sent him. It had to be said that this little emperor was really inspiring. Some ideas were very spiritual.

Being assigned to the local guards was the second chance given by the empire? What about the empire’s good intentions and expectations having been betrayed? What was with there being less than 50 one star elementalists being sent to the front lines as support every year?

It was amazing!

He was in pain to hear it. This was all money! He used to waste money on these parasites every year but there was nothing he could do. This was the rule.

Destroying this rule was fighting against the whole elementalist system. He was only one person and he wasn’t an elementalist. He didn’t dare to act rashly.

Like many people, he didn’t realize that the elementalists who were placed in the local army were actually due to the empire hoping they would further improve, not for them to retire!

If this speech video was widely disseminated, it would definitely change the ideas of many people and set off a wave of frenzy in the empire.

Therefore, at the hint of the emperor, he published it on the Internet through some means under the guise of a student.

Escher Star might not be able to connect to the Star Network but the local network was developed well.

Time was still short. He needed to wait and let the video fly for a while. Still, he believed that good results would be achieved soon. After all, this speech made too much sense!

It didn’t matter what the local guards thought after hearing this. People would definitely be dissatisfied even if they didn’t directly express it. Then if there was anything to stir it up, such as…

Reform the local elementalist system!

There would definitely be public support. The number of elementalists was small compared to the empire as a whole.

Moreover, some elementalists themselves might support it. For example, he believed that the elementalists struggling on the front lines and the academy teaching them would definitely support this reform.

At this thought, Wen Jishan smiled. He was very much looking forward to that moment!

Just then, Niya took back her hand. The mercenary who had been lying on the hospital bed opened his eyes and looked around in confusion.

“It is no longer a big deal. Just rest for a day or two.” Niya spoke casually. “Next.”

This was so fast! Wasn’t it only five minutes? A person who was seriously injured and going to die soon was healed straight away. It was worthy of being the water healer who could bargain with death.

Wen Jishan once again sighed. He saw someone else being carried in and didn’t continue to watch. He was very busy!

“Lady Niya is busy. I won’t bother you anymore.” Wen Jishan said with a smile before exiting Niya’s tent.

There was a long line outside. The moment the first seriously injured patient who was healed came out of the tent, all those who saw it cheered.

It was one thing to hear it and another thing to see it with their own eyes. It was amazing. A person who was so badly injured and dying went in for a while and came out on his own! He was still weak but it was much better than when he was carried in.

“Son, you will really be saved!” The old woman who had questioned the mayor held her son and exclaimed with tears in her eyes.

The young mercenary also recovered from his shock and disbelief. His face was full of joy and excitement.

He didn’t say anything. He just wiped his eyes with the back of his hand and stared at the tent with a warm glow in his eyes. Meanwhile, an even greater sense of belonging to the empire rose in his heart.

His Majesty saw them and didn’t give up on them…

Currently, there were many people who thought like him.

Wen Jishan saw it and his eyes flashed. In his heart, he had a much higher opinion of the little emperor.

He lifted his foot, ready to go to Su Lin’s side.

After giving the boy two acres, he didn’t care about the boy. As a result, Su Lin sent him a message saying that the two acres of land had a good harvest and if he could arrange for someone to harvest it tomorrow afternoon.

He thought this boy was just bragging. Su Lin might be an elementalist but Wen Jishan heard he didn’t even have the strength of half a star. He had also just transferred to the spiritual system.

In short, he was very weak!

Now he was telling Wen Jishan that he planted two acres of grain in three days? Wen Jishan didn’t believe it so he planned to see it with his own eyes.

He had only taken two steps when his communicator rang. His incoming messages and calls were all given special notes. The moment the sound was heard, he knew it was from the little emperor.

Wen Jishan raised an eyebrow and quickly opened the message to check it.

Huh? The first batch of transfer students tested by the Elementalist Academy were coming to Mercenary Town? They would arrive this evening and he should arrange accommodation for them?

Wen Jishan touched his chin and was a bit excited. They were just like Su Lin. They were seedlings of spiritual elementalists! They might not go to the front lines but they shone in the cause of building the empire. Wen Jishan had no doubts about this after seeing Dean Justin and their efficiency in building houses. It was really powerful!

By the way, how many apprentices would there be? He had watched the speech video but the students weren’t shown in it. He didn’t know how many people there were. Listening to the response, there must be more than a dozen voices.

Wen Jishan thought about it and sent a reply to Xu Sili.

On the other side, Xu Sili stood not far away and glanced at the message.

[Wen Jishan]: Your Majesty, can this servant know the approximate number of students in this group? This way, this servant can have someone make arrangements.

Xu Sili cocked his head. After thinking about it, he laughed and edited the reply. “You guess.”

Wen Jishan was a bit speechless at these words. Wasn’t His Majesty being a bit too boring? He hesitated before deliberately reporting a higher number.

[Wen Jishan]: 50?

“Guess again.”

[Wen Jishan]: More or less.

“Not enough.”

Wen Jishan sucked in a breath. In fact, his psychological expectations were around 30. After all, this was the current number of spiritual elementalist students in the entire Elementalist Academy. But… It turned out to be more than the number he deliberately doubled!

Was the emperor trying to fool him? He thought about it and carefully reported a number.

[Wen Jishan]: Then 80?

This was three or four times. It shouldn’t be more than this? However…

“Not enough.”

It wasn’t enough? Wen Jishan’s heart beat wildly. Surely it wasn’t possible? He swallowed as he typed and deleted. He struggled for a while before finally reporting another number.

[Wen Jishan]: 110?

Xu Sili couldn’t help laughing as he saw Wen Jishan take a long time to input before finally reporting a number. He thought about it and replied, “Well, almost.”

There were 157 plus those detected later. It should be no more than 200 which was almost the same as 100. He didn’t lie.
 

Wen Jishan waited and once he saw the reply from the emperor, he was completely dumbfounded. My god! He had heard old Justin say that the first batch of people who took part in the test was over 3,000. There were still another 7,000 or 8,000 after. According to the ratio of 30:1, there were at least 200 or 300 more! Together, it was more than 400!

Happiness came so suddenly that Wen Jishan was completely stunned. How much wealth could be created once these children grew up, became spiritual elementalists and participated in infrastructure construction? In addition, the water healer…

He glanced at Niya’s tent. Yes, the water elementalists could be trained in this direction! The water healers had the weakest combat effectiveness but their value on the front lines was very high since they greatly reduced battle damage.

In this way, the front lines would clean up the interstellar beasts much faster. It might be possible to open up the roads to the other main cities as soon as possible.

Based on the data he received, only one-third of the road between the nearest Seizing Star City was opened up.

The interstellar beasts that filled the area between the major cities were generally around one or two star strength, with a few three stars. However, it couldn’t be forgotten that the highest level of the elementalists was only two stars.

In addition, these one and two star interstellar beasts basically were in communities. One hit could attract dozens or hundreds so it was hard to fight.

Wen Jishan thought about the front lines and shook his head a bit sadly. Just then, his communicator vibrated again.

“Niya has been given a military order. The injured residents of Mercenary Town must be healed in three days or the Chris family will be deprived of their earl title. Chief Wen, you can figure it out yourself.”

Wen Jishan read this message twice because it felt so good. He finally knew why Niya was in such a hurry.

It turned out that just like old Justin, Niya was also pitted by the emperor. She was made an example of by the emperor and even received a military order. Heh…

Depriving her of her title was almost as cruel as what he did to old Justin. If it wasn’t completed, Niya would become the sinner of her family.

At this moment, Wen Jishan was completely convinced by the emperor. Maybe the little emperor didn’t have the aura of a top leader like Si Sheng but when it came to management and the ability to drive the empire’s wealth, he was really much better than Si Sheng! For example, this hint…

Wen Jishan pushed up his glasses and his dark green eyes shone with a shrewd light.

Three days was very short. The number of wounds healed depended on Niya’s capabilities but the number of wounded she treated… wasn’t it entirely up to him?

It was the most capable who did the most work.

[Wen Jishan]: Your Majesty, if Master Niya can’t finish it in such a short time, can you give her a bit longer? After all, there are many wounded in Mercenary Town.

Xu Sili saw Wen Jishan’s reply and touched his chin. He could tell that the chief administrator had seen his hint. It was just that giving more time wouldn’t be a deterrent.

He thought about it before editing his reply. Wen Jishan waited until his communicator finally vibrated. “The time originally given to Niya is from today.”

Wen Jishan’s eyes lit up.

The word ‘originally’ was wonderfully used. It was because today was already almost over. It was equivalent to expecting Niya to heal all the wounded in two and a half days. If she couldn’t finish it, maybe the time would actually start from tomorrow.

Niya must be feeling desperate and would even be grateful to the emperor’s tolerance. There was one more day. At the rate of five minutes for a critically ill patient…

Wen Jishan smiled very unkindly. He seemed to see countless Escher coins beckoning to him. The treatment fee for a water healer was very high.

[Wen Jishan]: Your Majesty, this servant understands.

Xu Sili saw Wen Jishan’s reply and nodded with satisfaction. Even so, he was a bit worried and reminded again, “The residents of Mercenary Town rely on Chief Wen for food and clothing.”

He put away the communicator after replying. He had spoken so obviously that Wen Jishan would definitely understand. If he didn’t understand…

His ability as chief administrator might need to be reconsidered.

He put away the communicator and watched the wounded line up at the tent one by one. He saw those who were cured coming out and watched the increasing number of die-hard fan notifications and Xu Sili felt very satisfied.

The increase in die-hard fans was unexpected. His main purpose was to reduce the injury rate of the residents in town so that construction would speed up.

He believed that with Niya’s desperate efficiency, she would be able to drop the injury rate of the town’s residents to a very low level or even close to nothing in three days. It would also increase his leveling speed.

Xu Sili didn’t go far. He just walked back and forth between the wounded. There was Si Sheng’s Passerby Halo on him and almost no one paid attention to them.

He sifted through the information of the newly added die-hard fans as he walked. None of the town’s residents were elementalists but a few of them showed ‘elemental tendencies.’ This meant they could perhaps become elementalists through the training of basic methods.

It was just that many of them were old and it was hard for them to achieve anything. For these newly added die-hard fans, especially the mercenaries, the highest personal level was Lv 5, which was half a star.

Still, their half a star strength would be inferior compared to the elementalist apprentices. After all, they couldn’t absorb or control elements. For example, Wen Jishan was an ordinary person even though he had reached Lv 5.

Xu Sili analyzed it and soon had a vague idea.

It was just as how he had to go to the Elementalist Academy for elementalist testing once he reached Lv 5 and determine his direction of development before continuing to level up. Lv 5 was a threshold.

It might be difficult but ordinary people could actually grow on their own to reach Lv 5. It was just that they might reach an end after arriving at this level. It was only when they became an elementalist that there would be infinite possibilities in the future.

Later when players entered the game, they would also need to go to the Elementalist Academy for a class transfer. This was very operational.

Xu Sili silently wrote down this discovery. This was important because it bound players to the Roland Empire in the early stages.

Players could only rely on the Elementalist Academy if they wanted to level up. Meanwhile, wasn’t he in charge of the Elementalist Academy?

Xu Sili thought about his future plans and his heart became excited.

He took down these discoveries and continued to sift through the information of the die-hard fans to see if there were any special talents like Wen Jishan or Asheng.

Unfortunately, nothing was found after searching through the dozens of newly added people. It seemed that NPCs with a special talent were still very rare. They had various special abilities and could exert huge power. He couldn’t let go of a single one.

Xu Sili finished watching the die-hard fans and turned his attention to the residents of the town.

It took 10 magic points to use Insight and he still had more than 1,000 points. He could look at many people.

Now that his spirit had improved, Xu Sili found that his magic would recover slowly even without meditation. It was just like his health. However, the recovery speed was very slow. He paid attention to it and it only increased by 10 in an hour. It was small but it was better than nothing. It also meant that this rate would increase as his spiritual value increased.

Xu Sili waited for the students while using Insight on the residents who weren’t die-hard fans, trying to find another special talent NPC.

The sun was gradually sinking to the west. It slowly hung over the sky of the mountains, rendering the sky beautiful and charming. Beauty was beauty but it also meant the sun would set soon.

Xu Sili looked at the main road outside Mercenary Town. He still couldn’t see the elementalist apprentices and there were naturally no protectors like Li Zhecheng.

Were these students going to fail?

He had wanted to give them a small test but Xu Sili still hoped in his heart that they could accomplish it. If they couldn’t complete such a small task, what about the more difficult tasks later on? There wouldn’t be any guardians like Li Zhecheng.

Xu Sili stood at the entrance of the town and silently watched the intersection of the main road. His face was calm but the disappointment in his eyes became more intense.

Finally, more than half the sun had sunk and only a small trace was left.

Wen Jishan also stood waiting at the intersection.

The video that Xu Sili gave him was edited. He didn’t know about the agreement between the emperor and the students but once he thought of the over 100 elementalists seedlings that would arrive, he inevitably looked forward to it and felt nervous. He didn’t know when they would arrive!

Finally, as Xu Sili was disappointed and Wen Jishan was expectant, the sun sank completely into the mountains and the sky became dim.

“It looks like it won’t work…” Xu Sili murmured. Just as he was about to withdraw his gaze, he abruptly heard the sound of horse hooves at the end of the road.

Xu Sili was taken aback. They really caught up?

He looked over but the distance was too far and there were too many tents and crowds in the middle. He couldn’t clearly see the distant main road.

Xu Sili didn’t bother to run over. He was the emperor. How could he rush to meet them? He had to stand where he was and wait.

He was just curious. How on earth did these students make it at the last moment? Did the newly added students also ride in the carriages? Couldn’t these carriages only hold up to five people? Adding more people would affect the speed.

Xu Sili hesitated a moment. Then he glanced sideways at Si Sheng and grabbed this person’s hand.

Si Sheng was originally staring into the distance and he couldn’t help being surprised by this action.

Lord God… took the initiative to hold his hand?

His heart was beating wildly when he heard the young man say, “Si Sheng, help me.”

Then Xu Sili extended his spiritual strength. His spiritual power detection range had been increased to 10 meters but it still wasn’t enough. He quickly reached the limit.

Si Sheng soon understood his intentions. He extended his powerful spiritual power and helped the young man see the distant scene clearly.

He saw the young man’s serious expression and then looked down at the two hands held together, his lips twitching.

He would probably never tell Lord God that he actually didn’t need physical contact to guide the spiritual strength…
