This method is truly excellent, although it probably doesn’t have any real significance to the Temple.
But Zhao Guang knows how strong the attack power of disgusting tactics can be. It’s all about spiritual attacks, but sometimes spiritual attacks are more distressing and infuriating than physically eliminating the enemy.
Yet, they can’t find any reason to counter us in plain sight.
Although the Bazaar Bird is highly valued by the Temple and regarded as a Holy Bird, after Zhao Guang learned more, he found out that it’s merely a saying formed by long-term grooming.
For one, this Holy Bird has not been explicitly included in the doctrine, and secondly, it’s not ordained by the Divine.
However, many Priests of the Holy Temple still proclaim it as a Holy Bird when promoting it everywhere.
Preventing others from finding a reason, and refining their Holy Object right in front of them, is such a delightful thought.
Their inability to deal with us, despite wanting to wipe us out, will surely make them more uncomfortable than the failure of this plan. Great, that’s a decision Zhao Guang immediately confirms.
"Xi Fei, notify Qiao Miya about this matter and have him find someone to specifically handle this business."
"He Yun, you assist, and inform Qiao Miya about anything he doesn’t understand. If your subordinates are lacking talent, tell me." Recently, the number of people under He Yun has been increasing.
Many of these people were brought by Zhao Guang from Earth, but unexpectedly, it’s still not enough.
He needs to make another trip south soon; despite his continuous attacks, the south hasn’t been completely subdued.
Apparently, only when his Organ Regeneration Potion is distributed can the special industries there be destroyed. Oh, besides the organ industry, there’s also the flour industry, both are targets to be struck.
Thinking further, Zhao Guang says again, "Additionally, He Yun, I permit you to train in Combat Energy. You can train up to the advanced stage, no further. Of course, you can also opt for True Qi."
He Yun promptly kneels, finally able to access this world’s special power.
None of the people Zhao Guang brought over were allowed to learn anything. Not even directly training; merely attempting to understand would cause contract power to explode, making them suffer terribly.
Unexpectedly, he alone is permitted.
"Thank the Master for this gift. I hope to become a Thunder Warrior."
"Thunder Warrior? You’re aware of the special circumstances of Thunder Warriors, right? They have short lifespans."
"Master, being eighty is already quite old, and I don’t need to go to the battlefield. The significance of being a Thunder Warrior is more about intimidating others; users of Thunder are very majestic."
What He Yun thinks is quite different; as long as he is useful to the Master, will the Master let him die of old age?
With achievements, he believes he can eventually earn higher-level Magic Patterns.
He firmly believes that if the level is high enough, lifespan won’t be an issue. After all, any form of training is fundamentally about the evolution of living beings. Without evolution, it’s like hitting a dead end.
Moreover, mastering the advancement as a Thunder Warrior rests in the Master’s hands, which certainly reassures the Master.
From his perspective, a Thunder Warrior merely needs to master Magic Patterns to temper the body; there are no barriers to entry. As for training in Combat Energy, he still doesn’t know his talents.
Since he hasn’t been able to inquire, he doesn’t know whether his talents are high or low.
Zhao Guang nods, "That’s fine, Thunder Warrior it is."
Without changing locations, Zhao Guang immediately inscribes Magic Patterns onto He Yun. After a moment of pain and screaming, He Yun gradually recovers, finding himself alone now.
Watching the lightning surging in his hand, a smile begins to form on He Yun’s face, turning into laughter.
From a criminal slave, he has finally crossed the most crucial step, becoming the first among these slaves. Of course, this refers to those criminal slaves from Earth, not the native ones.
He dares not compare himself to the three beauties beside the Master.
Following this, He Yun begins extensive operations.
With He Yun’s assistance, Qiao Miya starts purchasing Bazaar Birds in large quantities. Though the birds weren’t bought in large numbers everywhere, there were purchases. Especially those who didn’t originally have them, bought some for decoration purposes.
This method might please the Temple, but the approach of the Xuanwu Territory was quite unexpected.
Next, newspapers and storytellers emerged.
Xuanwu Territory has a significant advantage; it can produce paper itself.
Although there was paper in this world, it wasn’t widely manufactured. Most papers were extremely precious, mainly crafted by Mages.
Many Mages had mastered the art of crafting paper or dealing with Beastman hides, and most magic books were produced by themselves. Regular people hoping to obtain paper faced difficulty.
Now, Zhao Guang’s side is publishing newspapers on a large scale, prompting many to collect paper, leading to purchase.
Prices aren’t high, and once spread, advertising revenues naturally recover the costs.
Even ordinary people beyond the territory found the papers affordable, unnoticed by the Temple who focused on Bazaar Birds.
The approach was direct; once bought, restaurants were opened immediately within the territory.
Signs clearly stated: Fried Bazaar Bird, emanating a wonderful aroma.
Residents of Xuanwu Territory aren’t aware of its sacred bird status, as the Temple members had been expelled entirely. Once scaled up, the profits naturally attracted merchants.
The moment Zhao Guang made the recipe public, enormous profits caused merchants to envy.
Upon learning Bazaar Birds weren’t explicitly regulated as Holy Birds, its influence became evident. Soon, fried Bazaar Bird stalls appeared in nearby territories.
In the currently ostracized Chirali Empire, this new cuisine is spreading at a terrifying pace.
Neighbors, the Beastmen, also started indulging in this Holy Bird. In a short time, it spread to other Empires and even stalls appeared in front of the Temple.
Zhao Guang’s counterattack this time caused Temple members to have extremely displeased expressions. Even debating wouldn’t result in a win.
Conversely, some Temple members sabotage businesses and attack stalls, generating massive dissatisfaction.
