Chapter 795 – Bird Flying on a Vast Sky
The Demons and the Divine Race finally felt that something was wrong. They haven't received news from their spies for a couple days now. Although Zhao Hai's soldiers didn't retreat, the information that they received made them feel uneasy. They were starting to believe that the information was true. If the people of the Ark Continent really migrated, what would they do?
Although both invaders were restless, the unease felt by the Demons were less compared to the Divine Race. Their main goal was the Ark Continent's land, so even if the people have moved away, it didn't matter that much.
On the other hand, the Divine Race wanted the people of the continent. They saw this invasion as an act of revenge. This was because the Ark Continent had bested them once before. For the proud Divines, this was completely intolerable. However, the Divine Race found that they won't be able to do that now.
The Demons were constantly receiving reinforcements, with the Great Demon King coming in a few days. The Demon Dragon King didn't want to attack before the Great Demon King arrived.
The situation of the Divine Race was complex. When they sent news to the Barbarian and Winged Pegasus Race, they expected them to send their elites in order to deal with Zhao Hai.
However, they didn't think that even if the two races said that they would send people in, their preparation was too slow. Many days have passed yet their army were yet to arrive. It was very obvious that they were delaying time. This made Thunder Yun confused, he couldn't understand why the two races would do this. But in fact, Thunder Yun had forgotten. The two races did indeed feel they needed to take revenge against Zhao Hai, however, their hatred for the Divine Race was deeper. Strictly speaking, they couldn't blame Zhao Hai for killing their people. If the Divine Race didn't invade the Ark Continent, then those Barbarian and Winged Pegasus people wouldn't have died. Their deaths were actually because of the Divine Race.
Thunder Yun hadn't thought about this point. He has been thinking as someone far above the Barbarians and the Winged Pegasus people. In his mind, these two races should always obey the Divine Race. The deaths of the two units were well deserved. They were slaves of the Divine Race, they didn't have the right to resent the Divine Race.
It was because of this mindset that Thunder Yun miscalculated the reaction of the two races, costing him a lot of time in the end. Finally, Thunder Yun felt that something was wrong. After a strict order towards the two races, the process of reinforcement went forward a bit faster. While this was happening, huge changed already happened in the Ark Continent. Aside from the magic beasts, one could hardly see anything alive. The ones being busy at this time were the undead.
Zhao Hai sat in the Space and took a deep breath, he can finally sigh with relief. The entire Ark Continent had migrated to the Space, everyone was now safe. A large worry in his heart has been removed. The only thing left to worry about was upgrading the Space as well as repelling the Demons and the Divine Race.
The people of the Ark Continent were very happy to live in the Space. The Space's air was much better compared to the Ark Continent. The growth of crops was also faster compared to the mainland. When the Empires moved to the Space, their reserves were transported by Zhao Hai as well. Because of this, the lives of the civilians were much better than before.
In the past, the commoners were also worried about being unable to eat their meals. But now they don't need to worry about it. There was a lot of land in the Space, and the crop yield was very high. Additionally, Zhao Hai was providing food and clothing subsidies to the people. One could say that the commoners were already set when it came to necessities and shelter.
Zhao Hai was currently sitting inside the villa, looking at the troops in the Buddha Empire. However, these troops weren't the ones who harassed the Demons and the Divine Race. After transporting their families to the Space, Zhao Hai had the original army take a rest in order to recuperate.
Zhao Hai wasn't thinking of letting the Demons and the Divine Race off. These two groups didn't come with good intentions. This was especially true for the Divine Race, it would be impossible for Zhao Hai to forgive them. He was unlike the people who migrated to the Space, they were already living great lives, thinking that there was no need to deal with the Demons and the Divine Race.
After the Ark Continent's people were moved to the Space, Zhao Hai had finally breathed a sigh of relief. When he deals with the Demons and the Divine Race in the future, he would be less reserved compared to before. At this point, Zhao Hai was thinking about how to deal with the two invaders.
Zhao Hai also discovered that there was no need for him to use the continent's military. After all, the people had just moved to the Space for two days. If Zhao Hai decided to mobilize them once more, then there would be little point to sending them to migrate.
The military strength that Zhao Hai depended on would originate in a certain place, the Northern Icefield!
The Northern Icefield has been fully occupied by the undead. The undead propagating there right now were just low level undead or low level dark creatures. These things held no threat against Zhao Hai. The reason the Beastmen were afraid of the Underworld was because of the Dark Mist. Not only was the mist poisonous, it also hindered people from seeing through it. Because of this, the Beastmen weren't able to see that the undead they were going against were just low level ones.
And for Zhao Hai, these undead were very good manpower sources. These things would immediately be subdued by the Space, transforming them into Zhao Hai's own undead army. Because of this, Zhao Hai didn't plan on sending more troops out into the battlefield.
The entire Ark Continent had become Zhao Hai's large playground. He was now able to fight in however way he wanted. With his current strength, he can now fight with the Demons and the Divine Race. It was time to find out whether Zhao Hai's tactics were stronger compared to the Demon and the Divine Race armies.
Zhao Hai looked at the Divine Race's camp and sneered. Now he was thinking about how to start dealing with the Demons and the Divine Race. At this moment, a voice was heard, "Brother Hai, can I ask you one thing?"
Zhao Hai turned his head to see Berry. Zhao Hai looked at Berry and asked, "Berry? What's wrong? As long as I can do it, then I'll help you. After all, I'm your husband, tell my what you want."
Berry looked excited at Zhao Hai's response before she sighed and said, "Brother Hai, this might sound awkward. But, I, I want to ask you to allow my people to enter the Space." Zhao Hai stered, he didn't think that Berry would say this. He turned to Berry and said, "Why did you suddenly think of this?" Berry looked at the blue skies outside and said, 'Brother Hai, we cannot see this kind of sky in the Demon Realm. For the Demons, skies like these can only be found in heaven. My Succubus Race has a high status in the Demon Realm, but those strong Demons like to treat us as playthings. If the Succubus race wanted to survive, then they would need to marry those with great power. In exchange, we would keep our living space. We Succubi didn’t want to live like this, but there was no other way. Brother Hai, your Space is huge. If there is a chance, I'd want to have a place for my family to live in."
Zhao Hai looked at Berry's face and smiled, "There's no need to think about it. That's not a problem. As long as an opportunity comes, then I can make the Succubus of the Demon Realm enter the Space. But we need to consider where they'll live in, we can't have them be in the villa at all times."
When Berry heard Zhao Hai, she smiled before throwing a kiss towards Zhao Hai's face. Zhao Hai turned his head to meet Berry's lips, then the two went on to passionately kiss on the spot.
At this time, Megan's voice can be heard, "Everyone, come quick. There's two affectionate people here." Then came the giggles of the women.
When Berry heard Megan, her body immediately jumped up as she looked at Megan and the others with a reddened face. Megan and the others went to the Space's Ark Continent to see how the people were doing, therefore, Berry had the confidence to get bold. But now she was seen by the other women, naturally she would be embarrassed.
When Zhao Hai saw that the women were back, he smiled and said, "You're back. How are the people? Are there no problems?"
Megan pouted and said, "Brother Hai, don't change the topic. You haven't kissed me like that before."
Megan's response made the women's laughter even louder. Although Megan was red-faced, she was still giggling. She didn't care. After all, only they were left in the villa. Shue and Shun, along with Blockhead and Rockhead were out and exploring the new Ark Space.
This Ark Space was where the people of the Ark Continent were. Zhao Hai had officially named it Ark Space. Besides that there was also the Fishman Space, naturally, it was the place where the Fishmen were.
As soon as these two places were arranged, Zhao Hai felt great relief. He finally felt like a bird flying in a vast sky.
The Ark Continent's people had become shackles that prevented him from doing a lot of things. There were the Demons and the Divine Race, and more importantly, the cultivation realm. Now that the Ark Continent was safe, Zhao Hai can finally focus his full effort in dealing with his problems.
Chapter 796 – Zhao Hai's Depression
Megan felt that Zhao Hai's mood has become better, that is why she made this joke. Zhao Hai looked at Megan and couldn't help but laugh, "Alright, I'll give you one just like that. My little Megan, come here!" Then he opened both of his arms towards Megan.
Megan made an ugly face as she said, "I won't hug you." Then she ran of while giggling like a little girl.
Seeing Megan running off, Zhao Hai felt specially relaxed. The one feeling happy wasn't just him, Megan and the others felt it as well.
When Zhao Hai thought about it, he finally understood what was going on. Laura and the others were native to the Ark Continent. Besides their family members, they also had friends and relatives who lived there. Although Zhao Hai had resisted the invasion made by the Demons and the Divine Race, the women still couldn't help but worry for the future. If Zhao Hai couldn't resist one day, then their families and friends wouldn't have good lives.
Megan and the others had always been right beside Zhao Hai during the war. Because of this, they knew firsthand how powerful the Demons and the Divine Race were. Naturally, this fact made them even more worried.
They were worried for their family and friends' safety, so how could they be at ease. Since Zhao Hai was busy thinking about how to deal with the invaders, he had failed to notice their mood.
But now that the people of the Ark Continent were in the Space, it wasn't only Zhao Hai who felt great relief. Megan and the others felt happy as well, their worries had vanished into thin air.
After thinking about this, Zhao Hai's heart couldn't help but feel warm. Megan and the others had it hard, but they still didn't tell Zhao Hai to send their family and friends to the Space. It can be seen that they still held Zhao Hai first in their hearts, this touched Zhao Hai's heart.
At the same time, Zhao Hai also felt guilty. He hadn't thought into how Laura and the others felt. If he wasn't firm in his resolve to transfer the Ark Continent's people to the Space, then he wouldn't have seen their happy expressions right now.
Zhao Hai got up from his chair and hugged his wives as he whispered "Sorry" in a soft voice.
Laura and the others were intelligent, so they immediately understood what Zhao hai meant. They couldn't blame Zhao Hai and just didn't say anything. Instead, they gently held Zhao Hai and hugged him tightly as well.
After some time, Zhao Hai said, "I just discussed with Berry, if an opportunity comes, we'll have her people move to the Space." Laura and the others nodded, Laura replied, "Right, the Demon Realm's environment is just too terrible. The Space is much better in comparison.. On the other hand, Brother Hai, those commoners won't have food problems anymore. After a long time, those people might go lazy. Should we give them something to do?"
Zhao Hai stared, then he said, "Right, that wouldn’t be great. Do you have any ideas? Tell me?"
Laura smiled and said, "What are the reasons why we received the people of the Ark Continent into the Space? One of them is to gather faith power while another is to increase our strength. The Space's environment is much better compared to outside. There are no natural disasters here and there was no need to worry about food. If this continued, then the people would get lazy, so we need to make them do something. The main things we need to take care of is faith and their strength." When Zhao Hai heard this, he replied, "You mean, we'll have them worship me as a god while training them in magic and battle qi?"
Laura nodded and said, "At this time, we can't have them just worship you. That is just impossible, it might even cause dislike. Therefore, I have thought of a good way to do so. In the Ark Space, we need to have a projection in each city, showing the fight against the Demons and the Divine Race. What do you think?"
Zhao Hai thought for a moment and said, "That wouldn't be hard. When fight comes, we can have projections in each city. But will this work?" Laura was full of confidence, "It'll work, definitely. Brother Hai, every time you fight with your undead, people will surely cheer."
Megan and the others smiled when they heard Laura. In fact, they had already discussed this matter before. Having the people of the Ark Continent worship Zhao Hai as a god wouldn't be an easy matter. After all, Zhao Hai was just like them, a person of the Ark Continent. Would you suddenly worship a friend at your side as a god? That would be impossible. Because of this, Laura and the others decided that forcing Zhao Hai as a god would be impossible.
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, let's do it according to you plan. However, we need to wait for some time before we fight the Demons and the Divine Race. There are still good things left in the Ark Continent. I was thinking that as long as they don't attack us, then we wouldn't make the first move. In the meantime, we'll slowly take more good things into the Space. What do you think?"
Laura smiled and said, "Brother Hai is really mad with money. But if those things remain in the Ark Continent, then they might be used by the Demons and the Divine Race. in any case, the Ark Continent' people needed to adapt for some time. Also, I'm afraid that the Demons and the Divine Race would wait too long."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "Don't worry, the Demons and the Divine Race should be aware of the change in the Ark Continent. After all, we caught a lot of spies last time."
When Zhao Hai moved the people of the Ark Continent to the Space, the spies of the Demons and the Divine Race began to come out. Naturally, those people wouldn't go and see Zhao Hai face to face. Instead, they made backhanded remarks, saying malicious words towards Zhao Hai. Their purpose was to stop the people from listening to him.
However, they underestimated Zhao Hai's control over the Space. Along with Cai'er, it was easy to investigate who these people were.
At first, the people of the Ark Continent didn't understand why Zhao Hai was arresting these people. Zhao Hai didn't do the job this time, he hired Dark Mages from the Space to kill these people and turn them into advanced undead before asking them what they were doing. Before long, the people understood who those arrested people were.
And from the mouths of those people, it seems like the Demons and the Divine Race were already aware of the migration. However, this didn't affect Zhao Hai. In any case, the relocation has been completed. The next step to consider was how to deal with the Demons and the Divine Race.
Laura smiled and said, "Alright, the Demons and the Divine Race should be anxious right about now. But Brother Hai, how are you planning to deal with them? Will it be just like before?"
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Why not. You should know that we are only facing against the Taurus Divines, the other nine continents are yet to appear. And now that the Ark Continent has been destroyed by us, how about we go and explore the Divine Realm. And if an opportunity comes, we can also go to the Demon Realm. Let's see if they have things that can upgrade the Space."
Laura nodded, "Right, if we can get more things that can upgrade the Space, then that would be great. The most important thing for us right now is to upgrade the Space. Then if we meet the Immortal Cultivator in the future, we would have more ways to defend ourselves."
Zhao Hai nodded before he sighed inwardly. To be honest, Zhao Hai was a bit depressed right now. It was because of the Space's Ranch. When he played the game before, he can remember that the Ranch was able to summon divine beasts at a later time. For example, he can summon the Nine Dragons. The Space had a lot of those kinds of Divine Beasts, and their strengths were indeed very strong. What depressed Zhao Hai was the fact that these Divine Beasts should already be available once the Space reaches level 70. However, they were yet to appear. Currently, the strongest creatures in the Space were those God-rank magic beasts. Zhao Hai didn't understand why this was at first.
However, after the Space's backgrounds were introduced, Zhao Hai was given a prompt. Since the Ark Continent was a magic plane, then the only beasts that can be brought to it were magic beasts and normal animals. On the other hand, Divine Beasts such as the nine dragons were part of the cultivator background. This explained why they were yet to be purchased in the Ranch.
In other words, if Zhao Hai wanted to raise these Divine Beasts, then he would need to be in the cultivator realms. At this time, the only thing he can raise were magic beasts.
This made Zhao Hai depressed. If he was able to get just a couple of these Divine Beasts, then there would be no problem in dealing with the Demons and the Divine Race.
Lizzy turned to Zhao Hai and said, "We can also use this period of time to slowly wean the people to treat Brother Hai as a God. But unfortunately, our understanding of faith power was just too limited."
Zhao Hai sighed and said, "Let's not dwell on that matter for long. Let's take care of the Demons and the Divine Race first. Lizzy, Megan, do you have any plans?"
