Chapter 27: Opening the Passage, What’s the Commotion?

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Ning City’s command center.

In the conference room.

Sitting here were several high-ranking officers who controlled the entire Ning City’s military.

They were the leaders of Ning City’s Parliament.

In addition, there were more than a dozen people that controlled the major family clan companies in Ning City.

It could be said that the people here were the true big shots of Ning City.

They were people who could cause half of Ning City to tremble with just a stomp of their feet.

General Jiang was standing in front of the big screen with a serious expression.

The meeting had been going on for a few minutes.

He had already said all the nonsense he needed to say.

Next, it would depend on everyone’s attitude.

“The intensity of the beast horde this time is no joke.”

“The birth of the baby alien beast Emperor is a matter of course.”

“I hope everyone can be honest and solve this crisis together.”

“Otherwise, if there are two beast emperors at the same time, all the new lords might end up as food for the beasts.”

“When that happens, we might even completely lose control of this foreign world…”

When this possibility was mentioned, everyone’s expression changed.

Ning City only had three foreign worlds.

If this foreign world fell, it would be equivalent to losing one-third of the resource income.

Although the Lords who entered this foreign world were all new lords and had not been able to develop many resources for the time being, they were still very powerful.

However, this was something that they could not accept no matter what!

Don’t look at it as one-third or even a few percent. At first glance, it didn’t seem like a lot.

However, in reality, the foreign world was actually equivalent to the source of most of the resources of a city in today’s world.

Now that the world was short of energy, no city could survive after losing the supply of resources from foreign worlds.

Of course, Ning City was no exception.

Not to mention one-third of the resources.

Even if it was a fifth or even a tenth, they would not be able to withstand it.

If such a situation really happened, Ning City would face a shortage of food, energy, and many other problems at the same time.

At that time, countless people in the entire Ning City would starve to death, and the economy and other aspects would suffer great damage.

It was unknown how many years it would take for them to recover.

This was something that no one present wanted to see.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became heavy.

“Then what should we do? Isn’t this something that your Military Region should be responsible for?”

“That’s right, there’s actually a baby alien beast Emperor. Then why don’t you just send someone to kill that baby?”

“Why did you gather us? What can we do?”

“The only one who has the means to connect the two worlds is your military!”

“Damn it, my nephew is in the foreign war zone this time. Will something happen to him?”

Whether it was for personal or collective interests.

No one could remain calm.

They all looked at general Jiang, waiting for him to give an explanation.

General Jiang was very satisfied with the situation and continued, “we’ve tried as well, but I’m sorry, the command center is helpless against the baby alien beast Emperor.”

“But we have a new idea.”

“I know that your respective forces are among these new lords, and you have your own targets to groom.”

“We’ve also provided them with a lot of resources.”

This was the annual tradition and also the process of splitting the cake among the major forces.

All S-Class overlords, as well as A and B-class overlords with potential, would be targeted by the major forces.

These people were either originally from the major forces, or they would try to rope them in with all kinds of benefits.

Often, no one would refuse.

This was a win-win situation, and the major forces had to invest some resources in the early stages.

However, they could obtain resources and many other benefits because of their performance in the foreign war zone.

For example, the right to obtain and distribute all kinds of resources, and the right to speak in the Ning City Council.

“According to previous years’ practice, after entering the foreign war zone, only our Ning City Military command center can send resources to the foreign war zone.”

“But now, we plan to open up the passage for a short time.”

“Everyone can freely send in resources!”

“The passage will be open for a day. At that time, you will not only be able to contact the Lords in the foreign war zone, you can also send resources in.”

“We, the Ning City military, have already tried our best to compromise on this!”

“I hope that everyone can do their best for the future of Ning City!”

As soon as these words came out, everyone’s faces changed drastically.

Temporarily open the passage?

They could even contact the Lords?

This was something that would never have happened in the past!

In the past years, the military of Ning City had been very strict in these aspects.

Not to mention communication, it was basically impossible to even send resources in.

This was to prevent the Lords from having too much contact with the various powers.

Otherwise, according to the agreement, as long as there was a force supporting a Lord, then that Lord would be automatically labeled.

A portion of the resources produced by the Lords in the foreign war zones would be given to these forces.

The interests of Ning City’s military would be affected.

This was because these resources were part of the Ning City military.

If they were given more, the military would get less.

But now, this Jiang guy was actually willing to give up such a huge power?

Even if it was only a day, as long as they grasped the opportunity, they could still recruit a large number of outstanding Lords with potential.

At the same time, they could also provide more help to the Lords that their factions had previously recruited!

It was a sure-win deal!

The leaders of the forces who had a good relationship with each other looked at each other.

Their eyes were filled with joy.

It was obvious that the Ning City military was anxious.

Under the pressure of the alien beast Emperor baby, they had no choice but to make a concession.

This was a good opportunity.

If they could get something out of this, then in the following distribution of resources, each family would be able to get more benefits from the military!

The atmosphere in the conference room suddenly became lively.

“Who’s first on the leaderboard now?”

“Right, we have to look at the rankings. Bring me the list of the first week’s rankings!”

“What’s the point of looking at that? Isn’t the first wave of the alien beast horde coming?”

“Let’s see their performance from the alien beast horde. Won’t we have an idea then?”

“Hurry up, general Jiang, show us the situation of the alien beast horde this time!”

“Let’s quickly send the good stuff to the Lords!”

General Jiang looked at the lively conference room and hid the mockery in his eyes well.

However, these people wanted to see the alien beast horde, and it wasn’t good to refuse. He nodded at the Adjutant.

Not long after, the big screen in the conference room showed a bird’s eye view.

From the top, one could see the general situation of the entire new Lord’s territory.

The protective shield had just been turned off, and the alien beasts pouring in were as clear as ants on the screen.

“No, what’s going on?”

Suddenly, someone with sharp eyes noticed that something was wrong.

“Why are there so many alien beasts??”
