Please Call Me Cyber Ghost King
Chapter 321 Running into the Cyber Age
After a few pleasantries, Ke Ling began to talk about his arrangements. In simple terms, he asked everyone to live in another place.
"Leave home and find another place?"
The people in the village were obviously a little surprised by this statement. They didn't expect that Ke Ling's solution would be this.
"Will this really work?"
The villagers who had never left the village for a long time were naturally a little confused about this. They didn't dare to say no because they didn't understand it, but they felt timid because it was not a trivial matter.
For agricultural civilization, leaving the hometown where their ancestors lived for generations is not a trivial matter. It is not just a simple four words, but contains extremely complex emotions.
The village where Tatsumi and his friends live is naturally a very ordinary village. There is no special economic product. They just grow crops and live a life of men farming and women weaving. This is how their ancestors have lived for generations, and naturally they are also trapped by the four words "it is difficult to leave the hometown".
"Sir, the empire is in chaos now."
The village chief spoke with difficulty, which meant that he was not willing to accept it. He felt that Ke Ling's method was a bit too hasty.
They were a village of people, young and old, with their families. In this chaotic era, moving the whole village was purely seeking death. Moreover, even if they moved, where could they move to? Where in the entire empire was peaceful? Where could they be a new home?
"Don't worry about this, just relax and don't resist. I'll take you to see it."
Ke Ling understood the old village chief's thoughts very well. This old man was a wise man. If it was carried out normally, then this relocation plan would be like what the old village chief said, it would be like sending people to death.
Not to mention the chaotic soldiers, even the various bandits would be enough for these villagers to drink a pot. Relocation was not like defending the village. There were some geographical advantages and fortifications that could be used. If they met the enemy on the road, they would have to face the blade directly. This was not a joke.
"Okay! We believe you!"
As soon as Ke Ling finished speaking, Iyeas spoke up to support him. He believed that Ke Ling would not harm them because there was no need.
"Me too!"
Tatsumi and Shayou also said immediately. The three innocent little guys obviously still had a high degree of trust in Ke Ling. There was no way. He saved their lives and gave them money to buy supplies. He was definitely a good man!
The old people in the village looked at each other and had no intention of objecting. What value could a group of old things have? Would anyone really have nothing to do to mess with them?
So, Ke Ling waved his hand, and the shadow enveloped everyone, directly absorbing them all into the "Shadow Realm".
Although the space of the "Shadow Realm" is not particularly large at present, it is more than enough to accommodate a small village. After all, it is a space of 1,500 square kilometers, which is almost the area of a small prefecture-level city. It is still very easy to accommodate these small villages.
"This place belongs to me alone. It is isolated from the world and no outsiders can enter. Naturally, there is no danger."
Looking at the people who were looking around at a loss, Ke Ling explained. His words were not particularly clear, but the general meaning was conveyed. This place would not be dangerous, and there would be no land disputes with other places.
"The city over there is full of residents here. You will also be managed by the managers of this city in the future. If there are any problems, the managers will solve them for you."
Ke Ling pointed to a place not far away. There were many buildings over there. Naturally, they were settlements built by scientists from all walks of life. At this time, the shining artificial light source was hanging high in the sky, which obviously meant that the "shadow world" was in the "daytime".
There was no sun or moon in the "shadow world", and naturally there was no rotation of day and night, but after getting Ke Ling's consent, the scientists immediately started to make artificial light sources.
Now this "artificial sun" has obviously achieved initial results, but this "artificial sun" is a bit fake, and the range of illumination is not large enough. It only covers the settlement and a little distance around it. It is better to say that it is a big light bulb than an "artificial sun". When it is night, it will switch the mode and convert the daylight mode into a soft moonlight mode.
Ke Ling had to admit that scientific and technological means are sometimes very useful. People's creativity is endless. As long as there is a demand, someone can always make some strange things to meet it.
"Sir, what should we do here?"
After being shocked, everyone gradually recovered. The village chief swallowed his saliva and asked with a dry throat.
The village chief, who had not seen much of the world, was obviously frightened by Ke Ling's move. In the blink of an eye, they came to a completely unfamiliar place. It was even night here. Except for the place where people lived, there was light around, and other places were all endless darkness.
He knew that Ke Ling would be a big shot, but he didn't expect that he would be such a terrifying big shot. It was completely beyond his understanding. A word "God" emerged in his mind.
This adult, like the legendary god, has a power that humans cannot understand and can redeem all suffering people!
The reason why the village chief had this idea was actually influenced by An Ning Dao. An Ning Dao promoted some superstitious remarks, such as the leader is the reincarnation of the true god, and as long as you believe in An Ning Dao devoutly, you can get the salvation of the gods.
Their village actually doesn't believe this. After all, it's just empty talk. Who knows if what you said is true or not?
The An Ning Dao's missionary work mainly relies on funding and donations. If you really want to say that it has shown any miracles, that's a bit nonsense. At most, the leader has some special abilities.
The leader of the An Ning Dao has extraordinary personal charm. He is born with the ability to heal wounds and predict the future. He can see through people's hearts and even remember the name and number of every believer. He is a hybrid of dangerous species and humans. These abilities are basically generated for this reason.
For some reason, Ke Ling feels a strong sense of déjà vu about the abilities of this leader. Isn't this guy just Ubuyashiki Yoya with the ability to heal and see through people's hearts?
The convincing personal charm, predicting the future, and being able to remember everyone's name and number, all of these abilities are possessed by Ubuyashiki Yoya. The An Ning Dao leader just has a little more functions.
At the beginning, it was with this healing ability that An Ning Dao became rich. It was a bit like the "Talisman Water" of the Yellow Turban Army, but the ability of the leader of An Ning Dao was more genuine, so An Ning Dao was able to expand rapidly in a short period of time.
However, after the expansion, it relied more on donations and funding to promote itself. The leader himself had fewer opportunities to go to the front line. Most new believers had never even seen the leader, let alone see the leader show the so-called "miracle".
Of course, for the people of the empire who had difficulty even surviving, miracles seemed to be less real than a bite of food. Therefore, relying on the accumulated capital, giving donations and funding to the poor everywhere, An Ning Dao developed faster.
Did An Ning Dao do good things? This is of course certain. At least at the beginning, this sect did save ordinary people who were suffering, healed injuries and diseases, and donated food, so that people could be free from the troubles of disease and the torture of hunger.
But after further expansion, everything went in another direction. The management ability of the leader of An Ning Dao was obviously not enough to support him to control this behemoth, and the power of the church began to gradually fall into the hands of other people.
An Ning Dao was a mixed bag, and there were all kinds of people among the believers. The leader of An Ning Dao could predict the future and see through people's hearts. These abilities should have helped him to firmly grasp the power of the church, but unfortunately, his own combat effectiveness was very worrying. The leader himself was a pure scum.
The result is conceivable. Not all organizations are as harmonious and loving as the Demon Slayer Corps. Facing such a leader with special abilities but a scum, more people want to control him and then control the power of the church themselves.
The vice leader of the church, Bo Li Ke, obviously did this, and he also had an identity as an undercover of the empire. He was sent here to control An Ning Dao and prevent this sect from rebelling.
Bolick has the support of the empire behind him. Although he himself is also very weak, the empire behind him is very strong. The masters of the Royal Fist Temple, the four demons of Rakshasa, etc., were all sent to be his thugs, and he suddenly became full of martial virtue.
While controlling the leader, while suppressing the opposition in various sects by force, Bolick has become the de facto ruler of An Ning Dao, and the reputation of An Ning Dao has begun to deteriorate.
Tatsumi and his village did not fully devote themselves to An Ning Dao, in fact, because they heard some related rumors and doubted this An Ning Dao that claimed to "save the suffering and the distressed".
The appearance of Ke Ling made the village chief seem to have really seen a god and a savior. This looked much more reliable than the arrogant and pretentious An Ning Dao!
What the old village chief didn't know was that he had this idea because of the influence of Ke Ling's newly obtained title of "Human Emperor". Ke Ling did not show any hostility, but released goodwill. Ordinary people like them naturally had no resistance and were directly affected.
Ke Ling felt that the influence of his title of "Human Emperor" should be stronger than the personal charm of the An Ning Taoist leader. After all, he didn't need to show any miracles. Just standing there could make ordinary people feel good and awed.
This is the role of high charm and special titles. Ke Ling suddenly experienced the benefits of high charm in the DND world. No matter where he went, he could directly rely on high charm to brush his face. This feeling was simply too cool.
Moreover, with this ability, he was simply a natural charlatan and leader. No wonder most leaders of forces have similar characteristics. After all, a leader, if he wants to do something, whether he is a righteous or a villain, must be able to win the hearts of the people. He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world.
Ke Ling led everyone into the "city center" and handed them over to Xiaoyou, who is the manager here.
Xiaoyou will be responsible for arranging the work and life of these villagers and helping them get familiar with life here, such as letting them learn how to grow crops efficiently. The world of Akame ga Kill is still too distorted, and the people at the bottom are no different from those living in the Middle Ages.
These villagers came to the "Shadow Realm" and came to the settlement. They must adapt to a brand new life and learn to operate some new tools. They can be said to have crossed several eras at once and ran directly into the world of cyberpunk.
Ke Ling looked at the settlement and found that the scientists' lives here were on track. They were doing their own research and working hard to make life here better and more normal.
Ke Ling found that it was time to give this place a name. It didn't seem right to always call it a settlement. As the first special city built in the "Shadow Realm", it was time for this place to truly have a city system.
"Let's call it Shadow City, equip it with a mayor and a government management team, and make it more formal. We can't have such a makeshift team anymore."
Ke Ling made a decision. He didn't need to consult with anyone. He just decided on the spot. Anyway, he was the one who had the final say in this place. Xiaoyou was the general manager of the "Shadow Realm", responsible for overall planning and coordination of all affairs, and "Shadow City" would set up its own leadership team to manage its own city.
Soon, Xiaoyou's work was completed. It was introduced in great detail. The leaders of the village had a general understanding of life here, and they were all full of expectations for the new life.
It must be said that the treatment in this place is quite good, at least better than the daily meals they had at home, and they didn't have to worry about being killed by soldiers or bandits one day. This was already a paradise.
So, they happily chose to move to the "shadow world". "It's hard to leave your hometown" is indeed very powerful, but in the face of "life and death", sometimes you have to leave when you should. The chaos in the empire over the years has left them with no choice.
The people in the village packed their luggage, passed through the shadow gate one by one, and set foot on a completely unknown land. Their village is indeed very united, and no one is making trouble.
Of course, it may also be because the current life is so bad that they all think that even if they change places, it shouldn't be worse. With this mentality, there is naturally nothing to make a fuss about. As long as the expectations are low enough, they will naturally not be disappointed.
As for the house, Xiaoyou will arrange it for them, so there is no need to move into their original broken house together.
Ke Ling had no plans to help them move. He went straight to deal with the affairs of An Ning Dao, a sect he planned to take over for himself.
