778 The Remnants of the Old Era! (1)
After confirming the next course of action, Lin Ye led Shang Min, Chen Wen, and a large group of subordinates to carry out a search operation in the academy.
Under Lin Ye’s radar-like accurate positioning, many confused students were arrested by these fierce-looking staff.
This made the already flustered students almost collapse.
If not for Chen Wen following them, these students would have resisted.
Gu Hui also looked at Chen Wen and Lin Ye.
Many students still wanted Gu Hui to protect them.
However, all of these were rejected by Gu Hui.
Well, he wasn’t stupid. There was no reason for him to give these people any protection.
It was mainly because Chen Wen had explained it clearly enough.
These students who were captured could be confirmed to have the seed of that monster in their bodies. In other words, they could turn into monsters at any time and give him a scratch.
If that was the case, how could Gu Hui risk his life to protect these people?
Even though many of them were his classmates who he had a good relationship with in the past, and some of the students’ parents were from the same faction as his mayor father…
However, it was useless. Gu Hui ignored all of this.
During the operation, Lin Ye took a few more glances at this student named Gu Hui.
It seemed that this kid had a lot of connections in the academy?
Could it be someone with a powerful background?
Lin Ye asked Chen Wen and got an answer from him—Mayor Gu Zhenggu’s son.
He then looked enlightened.
Then this was not surprising.
However, what Lin Ye found strange was that Gu Zheng did not come to the academy to see his son even though he came back in such a hurry.
Didn’t they say that the academy had the most casualties?
While Lin Ye was puzzled, Gu Zheng, who had rushed back to Central Province from Jiangzhou City, was arguing with a few gray-haired old men in the office of the Human Alliance City Hall.
“Gu Zheng!”
“What benefits did Lin Ye give you to make you agree to bring beasts into the Central Province?”
“That’s right! Think about it carefully. The current peaceful and stable situation relies on a group of mutants, not civilians who don’t know anything and can only consume food!”
“Now, that beast actually wants to arm all the civilians. Then what does he want to do? To completely overthrow the current situation?”
“…”
Hearing the energetic roars of these old men, Gu Zheng’s expression was very awkward.
After he returned from Jiangzhou City, he immediately began to choose a location for the dojo.
The original address was at the Space Gate Plaza in Central Province City.
After all, there was enough traffic in the Central Province. If he built the dojo there, he could use the dojo to attract more people to the Central Province to settle down.
Although the number of people in the Central Province was still the highest in the entire Eastern Continent, more fresh blood was still needed.
The beasts were a new attraction.
If he could persuade Lin Ye to shift the dojo’s future focus to the Central Province, such as the venue of the Beast Tamer Competition, the effect would definitely be immediate.
However—
Just as Gu Zhengang was making arrangements in his office, he was coincidentally overheard by a few Human Alliance elders who had just come to talk to him about the monster attack.
Then, the scene of Gu Zheng being spat on by a few old men appeared.
Although Gu Zheng knew that there would be resistance in this matter, he did not expect it to be so difficult even at the beginning.
Now, it seemed to be very difficult to even build a dojo, let alone promote it.
These old fellows spoke in a dignified manner, but there was only one core thought—the appearance of beasts would cause the lower-class people to have an unpredictable impact on their status as rulers.
During this period of time, they had sent a considerable number of professionals to Jiangzhou City to carry out various investigations.
The final results showed that the Human Alliance government in Jiangzhou City had basically become a dispensable existence.
The right to speak was all on the person called Lin Ye from the Beast Taming Dojo.
Regardless of whether it was the Mutant Federation or the army, they all acted according to Lin Ye’s wishes.
Even resisting the beast tide had to rely on the Beast Taming Dojo.
In other words, the appearance of a Beast Taming Dojo directly took over all the official institutions in that kind of city.
There was no need to talk about those that were not official.
Many industries in Jiangzhou City had come to a standstill.
After all, everyone’s attention was on the beasts, and the only industries related to beasts were crystal cores, Concentration Fruits, and Evolution Grass.
The weapons that the Truth Corporation had researched for the beasts were still in the experimental stage and had not been officially listed.
Originally, the mercenaries with the strongest spending power were now spending money on crystal cores. This directly caused the overall economy of Jiangzhou City to be in an extremely unhealthy state.
They could still trade with other cities. Otherwise, those merchants would have gone bankrupt long ago.
Of course, what these people didn’t see, or rather, what they saw but didn’t care about, or deliberately ignored, was that with the appearance of beasts, new industries gradually appeared.
Otherwise, Jiangzhou City’s economy would have collapsed long ago.
What was more important was that these people who came to investigate clearly could not enter the Beast Taming World.
Otherwise, when they saw the extremely lively beast city, they would not think that the people in Jiangzhou City would not spend other than on beasts.
