Chapter 1356 – I’m Not A Good Person
At this moment, Bartlett suddenly saw Zhao Hai leading a group of people over . He immediately went forward and greeted them . Zhao Hai cupped his fist and said, “Elders, you’ve been working hard . Thank you for the trouble . ”
Barlett laughed and said, “It’s not that hard . Seeing such a huge city being built by our own hands, we couldn’t be happier . ”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and then introduced Barlett to Louis and the others . After that, the group took a tour of the city . The planning for this city has been completed by the Space . This city can house more than 30 million people . All the public facilities that the city would need had already been built and the layout imitated the cities of the Machine Field . The greenery of the city was also very good . It can be said that it was comparable to any city in the Machine Field .
Outside the city was a vast farmland . There were grain fields as well as vegetable fields .
Besides these, there’s also a huge herding ground for beasts . These beasts were purely bred for meat . Naturally, there are also the giant crabs . It’s good that the city wasn’t built too far from the sea . Besides farming, one could also use the sea to go fishing by boat .
In addition to normal structures in the city, Zhao Hai also reserved some huge areas for building various factories that might spring up in the future .
As Louis and the others observed the city, they could see that Zhao Hai meticulously prepared everything . And that he was hoping that Louis and the others would move over .
After looking through the entire City, Zhao Hai turned his head to Louis and the others and said, “Everyone, it’s time to head back . You didn’t notify your people that you’re coming over . It wouldn’t be good if we stayed here for a long time . They might suspect that I’ve done something . ”
Louis and the others nodded before gathering around Zhao Hai . After a white flash of light, the group returned to the warehouse . Nobody was present in the warehouse . Actually, it had only been two hours since they disappeared . The time that they were gone wasn’t that long .
After returning to the warehouse, Louis and the others looked at each other . Louis was the first to take a bow as he said, “Mister, thank you for trusting us . I can promise you that the Cross Sword Pirate Group is willing to move to your planet and become your people . ”
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “Alright, then it’s settled . The transmission formation should be up in a few days . However, I still need to take these products . I’ll also leave the food you asked for . It’s best if you keep this thing a secret first . We shouldn’t alert others . ”
Louis and the others complied . Then Zhao Hai waved his hand and received everything inside the warehouse . Then he took out the grain and the other goods .
After doing this, Zhao Hai turned to Louis and the others and said, “Let’s head back to your place . There are still some things I want to discuss with you . ”
Louis and the others complied . Then they led Zhao Hai out as they returned to Louis’ room . After settling down, Zhao Hai looked at Louis and the others and said, “Since you agreed to settle in Yalei 2, then you’re now considered to be my people . As you saw, you can live in Yalei 2 as soon as you get there . But I hope that you won’t give up on this place . ”
Louis and the other stared . With a confused expression, Louis asked, “Mister, what do you mean?”
Zhao Hai replied, “At this time, the Pirate Paradise is an intersection between different realms . The flow of information in this place isn’t inferior to the outside . In addition, the Pirate Alliance is a special existence . If you keep a few people here, then it might lead to an unexpected surprise later on . Naturally, you can move the majority of your population to Yalei 2 . Just leave behind enough people to preserve your operations . Moreover, you can rotate which people would stay here . I can also send Undead to pad your numbers so that people wouldn’t notice any change . What do you think?”
Louis nodded and said, “Just as Mister said, it would be a waste to give up on this place . Then I’ll do as Mister says . I’ll first transfer our families to Yalei 2, leaving some combatants behind . Most of our factories can also be transferred to Yalei 2 . Only two ship repairing stations and one mech station would be left . What do you think?”
Zhao Hai nodded and said, “I’ll leave this to you . To tell you the truth, you don’t need to leave a lot of people behind . I can just send the Undead to replace them . This way, your people wouldn’t have to suffer . ”

Louis nodded, “Alright, then I’ll have to depend on Mister . We’ll immediately arrange everything . ”
Zhao Hai nodded, “Good, then I’ll leave that to you . I don’t have time to assist you in moving to Yalei 2, but there are Undead that can guide you when you get there . There’s also a large number of supplies for you so you don’t have to worry about your daily necessities . A transmission formation will be built here, but you have to choose where to place it . You can send the first batch of people to Yalei 2 and set up some factories . Other things can be shipped later . Small items can be sent through the transmission formation . As for the larger ones, just tell me and I’ll send them over . You’ll have to take care of the rest since I don’t have that much free time . ”
Louis nodded, “Alright . Mister can rest assured, we’ll take care of it . ”
After he heard that, Zhao Hai nodded and said, “If you need anything, just talk to Barlett and the others . You can also talk to the Undead . I’ll leave behind 100 Undead to help you . ”
Louis gave a nod . Then Zhao Hai stood up and said, “I’ll head back first . I’ll take out the Undead once we’re outside . ” Louis and the others complied . When they got outside, Zhao Hai waved his hand and took out 100 Undead . These Undead looked no different than normal humans .
Zhao Hai referred to the Undead and said, “These are the Undead that would replace your people here . Don’t worry, replacing 10 to 20 million people isn’t a problem . You can rest assured and move to Yalei 2 . ”
Louis and the others nodded, but then their expression suddenly changed . Zhao Hai knew what they were thinking but he didn’t care . He just patted Louis on the shoulder and said, “Louis, ever since the last time we met, I already knew that you’re a smart person . Moreover, I knew that you wanted to leave this place and become ordinary people . Most importantly, you haven’t done a lot of wicked things . I sought you for these reasons . I can tell you that this Zhao Hai isn’t a good person . However, I’m not someone with no principles . In my eyes, there are three kinds of people in the world; friends, enemies, and bystanders . I treat my friends very well but I’m cruel to my enemies . As for bystanders, I don’t care about them . I treat you as a friend, so I’m willing to help you and get you settled in Yalei 2 . Although there aren’t too many rules in Yalei 2, it still has its own laws . I hope that you can control your people and make them remember that they are now commoners of the Machine Field and are no longer pirates . ”
Louis and the other nodded . Then Louis said, “Mister can feel relieved . We understand completely . Since Mister treats us as friends, then we wouldn’t make you lose face . ”
Zhao Hai nodded, then he cupped his fists towards everyone and said, “Alright, then you take care . Good bye . ” Then he vanished from the asteroid .

Louis and the others looked at the direction where Zhao Hai disappeared with expressions full of gratitude . At this time, an Undead walked towards Louis before bowing, “Commander Louis, I’ll have to ask you to arrange living places for us . This way, people wouldn’t see anything wrong . If you need anything later, don’t hesitate to tell us . ”
Louis looked at the Undead in surprise as he exclaimed, “You can talk?”
The Undead smiled faintly and said, “Of course . Young Master treats us as our own race, not just simple tools . We even kept our names while we were alive . My name is Legie . ”
Louis and the others were startled . They have never seen talking Undead before . However, they have heard about them . There are some Cultivators in the Devil realm who catch spirit ghosts . These ghosts were as smart as humans but they didn’t look like one . These ghosts were intangible . An Undead that’s intelligent and could talk was something that Louis and the others didn’t expect .
After Legie said those words, he stopped speaking . Louis turned his head to Tang Wu and said, “Little Wu, provide them with a place to rest . Remember, don’t let anybody know about them for now . Our relocation is a secret and it needs to be kept secret . ” Tang Wu nodded and then led Legie and the others away .
Louis and the others returned to the meeting room and then sat down . They didn’t speak for some time . Before long, Tang Wu returned . Louis looked at Tang Wu and said, “It’s settled?”
Tang Wu nodded and said, “They have been settled . There’s an abandoned ship nearby that people made into a house but never settled . So I let them live there . Those guys don’t need to eat or drink, so they don’t have many requirements for the house . They’re very easy to settle in . ”
When he heard this, Louis sighed and said, “We still underestimated Mister . He just said that 10 to 20 million Undead isn’t a problem . These Undead didn’t just come out of thin air, and they’re humanoid… . ” Louis suddenly didn’t know what to say next .
Tang Wen also sighed and said, “It seems like Mister has been a God of Slaughter in the lower realms . No wonder Mister isn’t afraid of us doing anything wrong . If we dared cause trouble, then he could just turn us into people like Legie . ”

Louis and the others nodded . Louis looked at everyone and said, “Mister showed us all of this because he trusts us . And he even gave us the status of commoners . If we settle in Yalei 2, then we couldn’t lose his trust . We need to prepare well in the next few days and migrate as soon as possible . ”
Tang Wu nodded and said, “Right, all these things, no matter what they are, would startle people if they’re revealed . It seems like Mister trusts us a lot . But Boss, I don’t know if you have noticed, Mister carefully crafted Yalei 2’s temperature to be comfortable for humans to live in . However, I don’t see any magic formation nor heating devices . Isn’t that strange?”
Louis nodded and said, “I also noticed that . It’s really strange . Are the records about Yalei 2 incorrect?”
Tang Wen shook his head and said, “No, Yalei 2’s previous records are absolutely correct . But there’s something you didn’t notice . ” After he said that, Tang Wen took out his computer and then projected an image he recorded himself . The quality of the recording wasn’t very good .
Tang Wen pointed towards the projection and said, “Haven’t you noticed? Yalei 2 might have a lot of grain and vegetables, but these grain and vegetables aren’t present in the Machine Field . Moreover, the planet has these flowers and trees that the Undead seem to avoid when herding animals or constructing houses . ” Then Tang Wen pointed towards the colorful flowers and trees .
Louis and the others knit their brows . To be honest, they haven’t paid any attention to these things . Seeing their reactions, Tang Wen added, “I have looked into these flowers . They look ordinary and don’t smell special . Although they are somewhat attractive, what’s special about them is that they emit a faint heat . This heat wasn’t from being exposed to the sun . This heat came from the flower itself . I think the planet’s temperature has something to do with these flowers . ”
Louis and the others were startled . Then Tang Wen gestured towards the spirit tree and said, “There’s also this tree . This tree looks attractive . Although it might look fake, it was actually a real tree . Moreover, the spiritual qi surrounding this tree is very rich . Being near this tree made you feel comfortable . And as I was paying attention to these two plants, I noticed Mister looking at me with a profound look . Therefore, I am very sure that these two plants are unique to Mister . And they’re very essential to transforming Yalei 2 . ”
Louis and the others looked surprised at Tang Wen . Tang Wen looked at Louis and the others and said, “Boss, this is an absolute secret . Don’t mention it to anybody . Otherwise, it would bring trouble to Mister . ”
Louis let out a long breath . Then he nodded as he turned to the others and said, “You hear that?” Everyone nodded .
