Chapter 789 – Last Resort! Good Or Bad?
This was also the first time that Laura and the others have heard those words coming out of Zhao Hai's mouth. Naturally, they were aware about Zhao Hai's anger, and they understood his mood. Zhao Hai's tactics already placed them in an advantageous position against the Demons and the Divine Race. But now, the Underworld suddenly appeared, this caused all of Zhao Hai's preparations to go to waste.
Zhao Hai's past arrangement was to isolate the Demons and the Divine Race to the south of the continent while the area on the north becomes their rear.
Now that the Underworld appeared, it was like they were just stabbed at the back, with an extremely poisonous blade. Zhao Hai was already having headaches while dealing with the Demons and the Divine Race. Having the Underworld's presence didn't help.
Laura was afraid that Zhao Hai would get too angry. She could still remember the time when Zhao Hai vomited blood after seeing what the Divine Race did. So she turned to Zhao Hai and hugged him, "Brother Hai, calm down. Please. If you get injured, the continent would be in grave trouble."
Lizzy and the others also ran over to appease Zhao Hai. After some time, Zhao Hai calmed down and breathed some air in. He patted Laura's head and said, "I'm alright, I'm fine."
Zhao Hai waved his hand and stored Ginko. Then he turned to Cai'er and said, "Cai'er, I just heard that the undead are now able to evolve. What does that mean?"
Cai'er looked at Zhao Hai with shining eyes as she replied, "Young Master, in the past, the undead can only upgrade their strength because of the Space and nothing to do with themselves. Now that Ginko has arrived, the undead's natural ability to evolve has been absorbed into the space. Now, the undead can also evolve without the help of Fuwa and the Hell background. However, the speed of this evolution isn't fast."
When he heard Cai'er, Zhao Hai gawked, then his two eyes shined as well as he said, "Good, that is good news. Any improvement to the undead is great for us."
One of Zhao Hai's greatest worries was the promotion of the undead. Now that the undead can evolve on their own, Zhao Hai was naturally happy. However, when his thoughts went back to the Underworld, his mood couldn't help but turn sour.
After seeing that Zhao Hai had recovered, Laura let go of Zhao Hai. Then she looked at Zhao Hai and felt sad, "Brother Hai, what do we do next? The Underworld is certainly as strong as the Demons and the Divine Race. This isn't good for us, we cannot defend the Beastman Prairie."
Zhao Hai smiled bitterly and said, "Do we have any other choice? Aside from our last plan, we don't have any other way."
Laura understood what Zhao Hai meant. Their last plan was to evacuate the Ark Continent's entire population to the Space.
Lizzy knit her brows and said, "Brother Hai, doing that would be very problematic. Moreover, we don't even know if the people would agree."
Zhao Hai forced a smile and said, "We can only propose this matter to them and hope for the best. However, we still need to discuss this with Grandpa Green. Laura, please call Grandpa Green and the others over to the Space. And Shue, go and see Blockhead and Rockhead, go see why those two are taking so long to come out."
Laura and Shue nodded. Laura went on to call Green and the others while Shue went on to the room where Blockhead and Rockhead were.
Blockhead and Rockhead had already succeeded in their promotion and were now taking a bath. Shue went to their room and saw what they were doing, but he didn't call the two. He just turned back and told Zhao Hai, "Young Master, they have been promoted successfully. They are now taking a bath."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he waved his hand and said, "Take a seat. Shue, Shun, what do you think about taking the people of the Ark Continent into the Space?"
Shue looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Young Master, I agree to taking them to the Space."
Zhao Hai stared at Shue and said, "Why?"
Shue replied, "Young Master, do you remember what that immortal cultivator is doing in the Divine Realm and the Ark Continent? He is collecting faith power. It is obvious that this faith power is important to him. If Young Master gets promoted in the future, then wouldn’t you need faith power as well? If you have the people in the Ark Continent in the Space, then they would possibly look at you as a god. Maybe you can collect faith power from them." Zhao Hai stared, he wasn't expecting Shue to present this reason.
At this time, Shun added, "That's right. Young Master, before that immortal cultivator disappeared, he said that he will wait for you in the higher realm. If the Young Master gets stronger in the future, then you will certainly ascend to their plane. If the Young Master doesn't have people to provide you with faith power, then you would be at a disadvantage. Also, the Young Master shouldn’t forget that the immortal cultivator has a huge sect behind him while the Young Master would have no background. Lastly, if the people of the Ark Continent come to the Space, then the Young Master can choose talented people and promote their strength. Maybe we can form our own sect to fight the immortal cultivators."
Zhao Hai looked blankly at both Shue and Shun. He wasn't thinking at this angle before. However, it was indeed an advantageous move if the people of the Ark Continent were to come to the Space. But even then, it was a bit unfair to them. Zhao Hai frowned and said, "If that happens, then wouldn't the people from the Ark Continent be like caged beasts in the Space?"
Shue replied, "Young Master, putting it that way isn't pleasant to hear, it will cloud your decision. You have been managing the continent for all this time, so you should know that without you, the continent would have already fallen to the Demons and the Divine Race. Although they would indeed provide the Young Master with faith power once they live in the Space, you would also provide them with a safe place to live in. Also, they are prone to believe in god, so why not make them believe in you. At the very least, you wouldn't enslave them, right?"
Laura and the others are blankly staring at Shue and Shun. To be honest, they haven't thought of this, but Laura and the others had to recognize that Shue and Shun had a point. Having the people of the continent come to the Space would be very advantageous to Zhao Hai. Laura and the others already knew that the Space could make Zhao Hai favorable to those who were inside it. If the people of the Ark Continent migrates to the Space, then they would provide Zhao Hai with endless faith power. In the future, Zhao Hai wouldn't be encumbered with the disadvantage of not having faith power.
The group looked at one another, it seems like Shue and Shun was already convinced by the Space. They were loyal to Zhao Hai would want to benefit him as much as possible.
Zhao Hai was frowning as he sat there. To be honest, he didn't think that having the people of the Ark Continent in the Space would benefit him. He just didn't want the Space to be known to others. Now that Shue and Shun told him about it, Zhao Hai was somewhat convinced that there wasn't anything wrong to have the people of the continent migrate to the Space.
Still, he needed to make a decision after consulting Green and the others. After all, this matter was too big. And like Lizzy said, they were not sure if the people would agree.
Chapter 790 – Decision
Green and Merine, along with Kun and Karen, were now in the Space. People Zhao Hai thought to be his elders were inside the Space.
They were yet to know what had happened, but just by listening to Laura they knew that something urgent must have occured. Because of this, they immediately left what they were doing and quickly went to the Space. Green and the others understood that Zhao Hai wouldn't have called them over if it wasn't important.
Currently, Green and Merine were mainly responsible for running the Black Wasteland. There were many races in the wasteland, dealing with their affairs was quite a chore. Naturally, since Zhao Hai was busy, these things were handed over to Green and Merine.
Kun was still in charge of Golden Island. Although war was happening in the frontline, people still needed supplies. Zhao Hai already took care of transporting supplies in the frontlines, so Kun was overseeing the transactions in the island.
At the same time, Karen had also been very busy. His team was currently busy with researching defensive formations. But when he heard Zhao Hai's summons, he immediately entered the Space.
After the group arrived at the villa, they immediately saw Zhao Hai's unhappy face. Shue and Shun were keeping silent right beside him. Blockhead and Rockhead had just exited their room.
After Green and the others saw Zhao Hai, they knew that he was thinking deeply. Shue and the others didn't dare to disturb him so Green didn't hesitate and said, "Young Master, what happened?"
When Zhao Hai heard Green's voice, he quickly recovered. He looked at the group and hastily got up as he said, "Grandpa Green, Grandma Merine, Grandpa Kun, Father-in-law. Please have a seat. I have an important matter to discuss."
After the group sat down, Zhao Hai told them about the northern icefield. He told them that the idea of relocating the Ark Continent's residents to the Space. As soon as Green and the others heard this, all of them stared blankly. The Divine Race and The Demons were yet to be dealt with, and now the Underworld appeared? Anyone who had heard this would would to shout 'motherfucker!'
There was only a little improvement to the frontline, but now a huge calamity appeared on their backyard. In this case, aside from relocating to the Space, there was no other way to evade massive losses.
After Zhao Hai saw that the group was silent, he continued on and told them about what Shue and Shun just said. He wanted to hear their opinion. Although Zhao Hai had experience in these matters, he was still a beginner in front of these elders.
Not to say about Green and the others, even Shue was more experienced than him. Otherwise, Zhao Hai wouldn't have needed Shue and Shun to tell him about faith power.
After they heard Zhao Hai, Green and the others frowned. To be honest, they didn't think about this before. The Space was the biggest secret of the Buda Clan, so they never thought of making it public. Because of this, they shifted the idea of relocating to the Space to being the last of methods they would use. But now that Green and the others listened to Shue and Shun's idea, they started to think that revealing the Space wouldn't be a bad idea.
Green hesitated for some time before he turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Young Master, I don't expect this thing to go smoothly, but we can try it anyway. But after we do this, the Divine Race and the Demons would surely be aware of your Space. Even if they don't know what the Space is like, they would still have a general idea about it. And once the Divine Race knows, they would also report this to the immortal cultivator. When we ascend to the immortal cultivation plane, that immortal would surely have this in mind.'
Zhao Hai nodded, he was aware of this point. It would be impossible to hide it when the massive population of the Ark Continent suddenly vanished. Lu Wei would definitely get wind of this and make certain preparations. Zhao Hai needed to be careful with this.
Perhaps the immortal cultivators would think that Zhao Hai had a rare treasure and would have greedy thoughts about it. When that time comes, Zhao Hai would definitely be chased by those cultivators, making Zhao Hai's troubles even bigger.
To Zhao Hai, this was a very hard decision. On one hand, he could keep his peaceful life but would sacrifice the Ark Continent. On the other, he would be in more trouble but he would provide safety to the people of the continent. Zhao Hai was not a saint, so before he made this decision, he needed to properly weigh the advantages and disadvantages.
After seeing that Zhao Hai stayed silent, Green said, "If we don't help the people of the Ark Continent, then they would be in danger. Moreover, we would have no way to gain faith power in the future. There are surely advantages and disadvantages to migrating the Ark Continent's people to the Space, this decision is entirely up to you, Young Master."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "I believe we should relocate the people of the Ark Continent into the Space. For us, the benefits outweigh the shortcomings. In the future, it would be impossible to hide the existence of the Space. It would be revealed sooner or later. We might as well save the people of the continent at this point."
Merine nodded, "If the Young Master has decided, then we can proceed to the next step. Young Master, I believe we should start with talking to the other races. There may be Demon spies among the Humans. Relatively speaking, there would be less traitors among the foreign races."
Zhao Hai nodded, "My relationship with the other races is pretty good as well. We'll start with the Dwarves. After all, the Dwarves are at the forefront. If a fight were to happen, then they would be in the most danger."
Merine nodded and said, "I also think that the Fishmen would agree. There is a sea on the Space's background. And since the Fishmen doesn't need to survive, then it would be easier for them to move in immediately."
Zhao Hai smiled bitterly and said, "I'm actually quite worried about the Fishmen. There are too many people in the sea. Although the Space is huge, I'm afraid it would take a year before relocating all of the Fishman into the Space."
Laura smiled and said, "I think that the Fishmen can be delayed. Whether it is the Divine Race or the Demons, they don't seem to be very good at sea battles. The sea should be the safest place right now. We should ask the Dwarves and the Elves. I don't think there would be any problems with the Elves. The most important thing for them is their tree of life, and we have several of those trees inside the Space. If they decide to settle down, we can plant more trees of life for them."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "The Beastmen should be easy to persuade as well. What they value the most is the Prairie, and the Space has a much better grassland in comparison. At the same time, the magic beasts in the Space should be sufficient for them."
The group discussed even more and decided to approach the Dwarves first. Although the Beastmen were also at the frontlines, the Prairie was just too big. Moreover, the Beastmen weren't weak. The Underworld had just opened, so powerful creatures should arrive quite later on, the Beastmen could still defend against the advancing underworld creatures.
However, Zhao Hai still wanted to approach Wales, so that he could prepare in advance. After all, Wales was already aware of the Space.
In order for this matter to do good, Zhao Hai would do it himself. Billy was currently inside the mountain along with the other Dwarves. They were building weapons every day in preparation to deal with the Demons and the Divine Race.
Billy was also aware about the positive development in the frontlines, so he was quite happy. Because of this, he took the initiative to head towards Iron Mountain and personally help in making the iron chains for the magic cannons.
Billy was currently hammering a piece of ore when Zhao Hai arrived. After hearing that Billy was working, Zhao Hai immediately went to the cave where Dwarves did their work.
The sound of hammering was quite loud on the ears. Dwarves had covered their ears as they proceeded to use their hammers. Each hammering came with sweat and dedications from the Dwarf Race.
Zhao Hai arrived by Billy's side and patted him on the shoulder. Billy was also blocking his ears, otherwise, he would turn deaf from the loud noise.
After sensing Zhao Hai's pat, Billy immediately turned his head. When he saw that it was Zhao Hai, he didn't speak, instead, he gestured to a door at the side of the mountain before they proceeded to walk out.
When they arrived outside, Billy removed his ear stoppers and then turned to Zhao Hai and said, "Why are you here? Did something happen in the frontlines?"
Zhao Hai looked at Billy and bitterly smiled, "Something did happen, but not in the frontlines. Let's take a walk, I'll tell you along the way." Then they walked towards the Dwarves' Divine Palace while Zhao Hai told Billy about the spatial rift on the northern icefield, telling the Dwarf Patriarch that the Underworld has been connected to the Ark Continent.
Billy carefully listened, he didn't believe that Zhao Hai would deceive him. Therefore, after Zhao Hai's report, Billy calmly looked at Zhao Hai and said, "What do you have in mind?"
Looking at Billy's calm demeanor, Zhao Hai couldn’t help but be curious, "Why aren't you worried?'
Billy laughed and said, "There's no use in being worried at this point. It seems like my time to die for the continent has come. I'm a resident of the Ark Continent. I'm not afraid to sacrifice myself."
Zhao Hai admired Billy's heroic spirit. Zhao Hai said, "I have a solution. But you need to come to a place with me." Then he waved his hand as they appeared in the Space.
Chapter 791 – Unexpected Decision From the Fishmen and the Lyon Empire
BIlly looked at the Space in a daze, all of it was beyond his comprehension. Zhao Hai looked at Billy and said, "Patriarch, come with me. I'll discuss with you in detail." Then he lead Billy to the villa.
Billy was similarly stunned when he arrived at the Villa. This was because he didn't expect to see Laura and the others there. Zhao Hai introduced Billy to the others before inviting him to sit down. Megan handed Billy a glass of wine before Zhao hai started talking about everything inside the Space.
Fully explaining the Space couldn't just be done inside the villa. So Zhao Hai took Billy to see the background and introduced it.
Five hours passed since Zhao Hai began to talk to Billy. By the time they returned to the villa, Billy already had a general understanding of the Space.
After they sat down, Zhao Hai gave Billy a glass of wine. Billy drank all of it, and then asked for seconds before placing it down and turning to Zhao Hai, "You want the Ark Continent's people to migrate to the Space?"
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Although it can be said that I am a god inside this place, you should also know that I have no plans to oppress you. Moreover, this is the safest way we can go forward, I don't have any other plans. I won't force you to come to the Space, everything is up to your choice. I will still participate in the fight against the Demons and the Divine Race. However, to tell you the truth, I can't find any future in fighting the two. And now that the Underworld has come, my confidence in defending has gotten lower."
Billy nodded. He was clear about the situation of the Ark Continent. Although he wasn't in the frontlines, there were Dwarves there to provide reports in addition to Zhao Hai's news. Although Zhao Hai gained recent victories, discerning people can see that the Demons and the Divine Race were just being harassed by Zhao Hai. Once they find ways to go around Zhao Hai's antics, then they would attack once again. And now, there was the Underworld.
Billy turned to look at Zhao Hai and said, "I know how you have it hard. However, I cannot take responsibility of this matter alone. You should also be aware of how the Dwarves do things. Any matter needed to be discussed with everyone. I'll go back and ask for their opinion on this."
Zhao Hai nodded, "Alright. But I hope to hear your decision as soon as possible. We can't drag this matter for a long time. The Underworld's residents are getting closer and closer. And once the Demons and the Divine Race discovers that the Underworld has come, then they would certainly attack. When that time comes, things might be too late."
Billy nodded, "Rest assured, I will give you an answer as soon as possible. Please lead me back." Zhao Hai nodded before he lead Billy back to his mountain.
After Billy returned, he immediately convened the elders and the village chiefs. He told the the Ark Continents current state before proposing Zhao Hai's idea.
While Billy was talking with his people, Zhao Hai went on to visit the Beast King. He also took the Beast King to the Space. And just like Billy, he introduced the Space while proposing his plan.
Naturally, the Beast King didn't agree immediately. The Beastman Race's government was much looser than the Dwarves. The influence of the Beast King wasn't as powerful as the Patriarchs of each tribe. So Zhao Hai lead the Beast King back to the Prairie to discuss the matter with his people. After leading the Beast King out, Zhao Hai didn't immediately go to the Elves. Instead, he went to the Herculean Bull camp and looked for Wales.
The Herculean Bulls had also sent their cavalry to help Zhao Hai in the Buddha Empire. One can say that Zhao Hai had Wales' unconditional support.
Wales knew that the changes in the northern icefield wasn't good news. The powerful northern tribes were already promoted to 9th rank by Zhao Hai, and yet they were still driven pack into the Prairie. This alone fully explained how strong the creatures of the Underworld were. An enemy at the icefield was akin to having a knife at the back of Zhao Hai. Therefore, Wales was very anxious in the past few days.
When he heard that Zhao Hai came, Wales immediately welcomed him to the tent. As they entered, Wales gave the guards and order, "Guard the tent, don't let anybody approach." The guard nodded before walking out.
Yale and Mendez were also inside the tent. Wales looked at Zhao Hai and said, "How come you have time to visit? Do you have any plans?"
Zhao Hai looked at Wales and smiled, "Brother, you should already know about the Space. I want the Cow-headed race to move to the Space. You can still herd there, keeping your present life while being safe.
Wales couldn't help but stare, he looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Are you sure about this?"
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "I've decided. There is no safer way for the continent other than this. I have already told the Beast King about the Space, and he said it needed to be discussed. Brother, you need to be an example and help the Beast King out. You know how good the Space is better than anyone in the Prairie. What do you think?"
Wales nodded and said, "Give me a few days. I don't think there'll be any problems. Rest assured."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he looked at Wales and laughed, "Brother, later on we can drink daily together. Hahaha."
Wales smiled. He knew that inside the Space, Zhao Hai was a god. He can go wherever he wanted to go and he can do whatever he wants to do. It would be very easy for Zhao Hai to drink with Wales everyday.
Wales laughed and replied, "You better give us some good pastures. Our entire cow-headed race will be depending on you."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Brother, rest assured, the grass in the Space is much better than in the Prairie. As long as you move there, you won't have any more problems."
Wales nodded, "Good. I don't have anything else to ask. Just wait for my news, I will certainly do well in the following days."
Zhao Hai nodded, then he said his goodbyes to Wales before returning to the Space. After that, he went to the Elves. Zhao Hai couldn't forget the Elf Queen's shocked face when she saw the trees of life inside the Space.
Nobody could blame the Elf Queen, the Elves treasured their tree of life. But in Zhao Hai's Space, there seem to be one in every direction. There were even two of them beside the door of Zhao Hai's villa. Moreover, these trees of life looked healthier than the one back in the Elf Forest.
Although she was dumbfounded by what she saw, the Elf Queen didn't immediately agree to migrating to the Space. After all, she also needed to discuss this matter with the elders.
Zhao Hai didn't oppose to this decision as he gave an understanding nod. After that, he immediately went to the Fishmen to see the Mermaid Queen. Naturally, he also took the Queen to the Space and introduced her with the surroundings. He also led her to the place in the background he specially prepared for the FIshman Race.[1]
Zhao Hai expected the Queen to delay her decision and discuss the matter with her people. However, Zhao Hai couldn't help but stare when the Queen agreed to migrate immediately. She told Zhao Hai that she would organize the move as soon as she gets back from the Space.
This was completely unexpected, but Zhao Hai was still happy. He immediately opened a spatial rift, enabling the Fishmen access to the Space at all times.
Zhao Hai didn't think that the first ones to move would be the Fishmen. But Zhao Hai was also glad. The Fishmen were the easiest people to settle in. Unlike the other races, the Fishmen didn't need houses nor tents. As long as they were in the sea, then they can already take care of themselves.
After having Cai'er manage the Fishmen, Zhao Hai and Green returned to the Black Wasteland. Then the Buda Clan's people and slaves, along with the Diamond Ape Tribe, moved and settled down in the Space.
These people weren't with the Buda Clan for a day or two, it could be said that they were completely loyal to Zhao Hai. Therefore, Zhao Hai decided to have these people move to the Space first as an example to the other residents of the continent.
After moving his people to the Space, Zhao Hai immediately went to look for the leaders of the various Empires of the continent. He told them about the state of the continent and about the Space. Finally, he proposed the migration of the continent's residents towards the Space.
The various leaders didn't agree immediately. They knew that once they entered the Space, then it would akin to being on Zhao Hai's hands. If Zhao Hai had anly plans for them, then they couldn't do anything to rebel.
Although there were God-rank experts among the enemies, these experts weren't invincible. However, in Zhao Hai's Space, Zhao Hai was a literal god. If Zhao Hai wants them to die, then it would be impossible for them to live. This was why they were reserved about the decision, this was the same case as the other races in the continent.
But out of Zhao Hai's expectation was the Lyon Empire. Zhao Hai also told the Lyon Empire's Great Nobles about his plans. Who would've known that after Zhao Hai proposed his idea, the Great Nobles of the Empire immediately agreed. All of them quickly moved their families to the Space while also helping Zhao Hai move the Lyon Empire's residents.
Zhao Hai didn't know why this was the case. But the true reason was because the Lyon Empire was already convinced of Zhao Hai's strength. The people of the other Empires might know Zhao Hai's might from the battle with the Demons, but the Lyon Empire were already aware of it when he extinguished the Dragons. The people of the Lyon Empire believed that since Zhao Hai assured them safety inside the Space, then safety would definitely be provided. Hence they decided to not delay and move immediately.
From my advance reading, this is the main background of the Space, not those that needed to be purchased.Chapter 792 – Remaking The Ark Continent
There wasn't much mystery as to why the Lyon Empire agreed to enter the Space. On the other hand, Zhao Hai doesn't understand why the Mermaid Queen agreed. Although Zhao Hai was glad that they agreed, he still wondered why.
Actually, this was because the Mermaid clan was different compared to the Elves, Beastmen, and Dwarves. The three latter races had members who had ascended to the Divine Realm while the mermaid race had no ascenders. In other words, they don't have a powerful backer.
Because of this, the Fishmen immediately agreed to enter the Space. The Mermaid Queen knew that Zhao Hai would eventually defeat the Demons and the Divine Race. And although the Fishmen would have it better, their state would still be different compared to the Elves and the other two races. If Zhao Hai succeeded in his counter attack, then the Elves could meet with their people in the Divine Realm. Once they get in contact, their situation would be much safer. The case was similar to the Beastmen and the Dwarves.
But the Fishman Race was different, they didn't have any people to help them in the Divine Realm. Even if Zhao Hai succeeded in defeating the invaders, the Fishmen still wouldn't gain any advantage.
The Mermaid Clan had a lot of 9th ranks, but nobody was able to reach God-rank. This worried the Mermaids. Because of this, they saw hope in Zhao Hai and the potion that he had.
Although Zhao Hai's potions could only promote people to 8th and 9th rank, Zhao Hai told them that he has yet to develop a potion for God-rank. This meant that the potion was on its way to being made. This was too tempting for the Fishmen, so the Mermaid Queen immediately agreed to enter Zhao Hai's Space. The Mermaid Queen also saw the place that Zhao Hai had arranged for them, and to be honest, it was a much better place than where they were living right now. The Mermaid Queen had no qualms about moving their entire race over.
Although Zhao Hai was shocked at the decisions made by the Mermaid Queen and the Great Nobles, he was happy with their quick response. And even if they had some reservations at this point, they would slowly accept Zhao Hai when they live in the Space.
The Mermaid Clan and the Great Nobles took the lead in entering the Space. With the influence of the Great Nobles as well as Zhao Hai's appeal as the Emperor, the civilians of the Lyon Empire also agreed. After all, their almighty Emperor would take them to a place devoid of war and was plentiful in food and clothing. Moreover, they also won't need to worry about the Demons and the Divine Race.
Although the way Zhao Hai became Emperor was quite special, the people of the Lyon Empire were still very respectful towards him. This was because Zhao Hai had essentially rescued them from the Dragons. Moreover, Zhao Hai was taking the lead in resisting the Demons and the Divine Race. Even if they weren't Beastmen, they would still respect a strong and powerful person. This was because in the Ark Continent, the stronger the person, the more respect he would gain, and Zhao Hai was a very strong man.
With Zhao Hai's fame as well as the help of the Great Nobles, the Lyon Empire's people began to move towards the Space. Naturally, they didn't know about the specifics of the Space. The only thing they knew was that they were going to migrate.
And along with the movement of the Lyon Empire, the Buddha Empire's people were also affected. It was impossible to hide the Lyon Empire's migration to the Buddha Empire. After all, the Buddha Empire has taken refuge in the Lyon Empire. Because of this, when the commoners of the Buddha Empire heard that the Lyon Empire was migrating, they also prepared their things for migration.
People were sometimes subjected to blind obedience. And who do these civilians follow? Naturally it was the Nobles. And with Zhao Hai's call, the commoners will surely follow. These commoners knew that the Nobles might have known something that they don't. Therefore, once they saw the nobles moving, they suddenly thought that the Lyon Empire might be in danger. If this was true, then they needed to move quickly.
There were a lot of people with the same ideas. It was because of this that the entire population of the Lyon Empire started to move. From the commoners, to small nobles, and to the Great Nobles. All of them packed up their things and prepared to move out.
The Buddha Empire's Imperial Clan as well as its Great Nobles couldn't just sit still with this development. If their subordinates decided to move, then what use would they have? What would a Noble Title and a Crown do? They would become Generals with no army.
The Buddha Empire's Nobles convened before deciding to migrate as well. The Buddha Emperor and the others understood how bad it would be for them if they didn't move. The Demons and the Divine Race were yet to break through, however, the Buddha Empire's people were currently inside the Lyon Empire. If the war continues for long, then the citizens would slowly be integrated to the Lyon Empire. So when Zhao Hai drives the invaders out, will the citizens come back? Because of this, the Buddha Empire's nobles decided that it would be better to be inside Zhao Hai's Space. At the very least, they would still have their own people and territory.
Zhao Hai had promised them that after moving to the Space, then they would be given land that was just like the Buddha Empire. Cities would be made and the place would look and feel like the old Buddha Empire.
Zhao Hai can definitely achieve this promise. The Space is under his control, and he can change its terrain at will. Because of this, Zhao Hai can change the Space's terrain and make the Buddha Empire out of essentially nothing. It would be no different from the Buddha Empire outside.
Zhao Hai knew everything about the Buddha Empire as well as the rest of the Ark Continent. Zhao Hai ordered Cai'er to make the Space's background to be like the Ark Continent.
Zhao Hai hadn't prepared to migrate the Ark Continent's people to the Space. And since he didn't want people to go to his villa everyday, He had a separate continent made with the same structure as the Ark Continent, he would have people move there.
However, Zhao Hai was not only building the terrain of the Ark Continent, he needed to make cities as well. And naturally, this came at a price. The Space deducted tens of millions of gold coins from Zhao Hai's account, almost resetting Zhao Hai's money to only a couple of gold coins.
Zhao Hai looked at the rapid decline of his gold coins with a frown on his face. In the end, the number stopped going down, leaving Zhao Hai with a bit more than 10 thousand. Zhao Hai felt his heart stop, but fortunately Cai'er told him that there were a lot of things in the Space that can be sold. As long as those things mature, then they can get millions of gold coins once more.
Zhao Hai was confused by this. He remembered that the crops from the Space weren't worth this much money. If he was able to sell them for millions of gold coins, then he would've already done it a long time ago.
It was only after he asked Cai'er that he understood. Those plants were cultivated in the magic world backgrounds. Plants harvested there were more than those grown in the Space's background.
After hearing this, Zhao Hai's sadness immediately vanished. Zhao Hai wasn't a stingy person, and he knew how much tens of millions of gold coins can do in the Space.
As for the migration, the Fishmen didn't need to be managed as much as the Humans. This time, Zhao Hai was taking care of the Lyon Empire. It was good that the Great Nobles of the Empire were already familiar with the environment. They immediately established their authority before leading the commoners in.
The civilians that entered the Space was actually a mix between the Lyon and Buddha Empire's commoners. The people of the Buddha Empire were already sent to the Space's Buddha empire. Later on, when the Buddha Empire's Nobles arrive, the Empire would be re-established once more.
When the people from the Buddha Empire saw their homes, the couldn't help but cry. This was especially true for the old people, they really thought that they had returned to their hometowns. They never expected that they would be able to see their homes for the rest of their lives. Although this wasn't the original Buddha Empire, it was not different to their original home, all of them were very happy.
Fortunately for Zhao Hai's pockets, the Radiant Empire has been completely decimated by the Divine Race. Therefore, Zhao Hai didn't need to reconstruct the Empire inside the Space. The Space's Ark Continent was much smaller compared to the original one; it didn't have the Black Wasteland, the Carrion Swamp, the Northern Icefield, and other uninhabited places.
If Zhao Hai really remade the Ark Continent, then he would surely be bankrupt. Even if he sold his own clothes, we still wouldn't be able to remake the Ark Continent.
The Buddha Empire and Lyon Empire's mass migration naturally couldn't be hidden from the other people. This made the other Empires unable to sit still.
The first to become anxious was the Rosen Emperor. The Emperor was Zhao Hai's father-in-law, so he supported Zhao Hai. However, he was still afraid that after moving to the Space, his high status would be gone. This made him think twice. But after seeing the actions made by the Lyon and Buddha Empires, his heart began to beat quickly.
However, even if his heart was beating fast, his actions were the contrary. On the other hand, another person made a quick move, it was Wales!
