Chapter 1829: Chapter 1848: Another Scene Yusuf Zuck was not immediately tasked with expanding territory but with defense because the Heaven One Gate would undoubtedly use a human wave tactic to attack Dragon City. At that time, even if Yusuf Zuck had three heads and six arms, he wouldn’t be able to eliminate all invading enemies. People would still reclaim Dragon City, making his idea of establishing an Empire a laughingstock! Therefore, fortifying the city is the first step. But how to fortify the city? Of course, build Dragon City as strong as an iron barrel, so that even if thousands of enemies attack, the city will remain safe. This way, a temporary Empire will take root. Additionally, a massive recruitment of soldiers is necessary, which requires provisions, addressing a substantial practical problem. Establishing an Empire isn’t something that can be done just by saying it; you must take care of all aspects. Simply put, whether an Empire can be established depends on the sufficiency of your provisions. The two of them discussed for a full day without eating, and Yusuf Zuck continuously listened to Parker Berger’s explanation of all aspects of establishing an Empire. In the end, Parker Berger only gave Yusuf Zuck one task, which was to prepare provisions, essentially to find money. Without money, it wouldn’t work! As for city defense, Formation, and the various systems and operational mechanisms of the Empire, Parker Berger did not require Yusuf Zuck to worry about them. “What about the city’s defense Formation?” Yusuf Zuck asked in confusion. Parker Berger smiled faintly: “Haha, though humble as your servant, I am skilled in both ironworks and setting formations. Just give me three days, and I will set up an impregnable Big Array for you!” “Really? You can do this too?” Yusuf Zuck was shocked. “Though humble as your servant, I have studied Five Elements and Eight Trigrams extensively with unique insights. I even have the materials needed to set the formation, so rest assured, Your Majesty!” “Five Elements and Eight Trigrams? Parker Berger?” Yusuf Zuck’s eyebrows sharply lifted. This Parker Berger shared the name with the author of “The Book of Changes” from Earth, and now this Parker Berger could perform Five Elements and Eight Trigrams techniques. Could this Parker Berger really be related to the one on Earth? “Did you author any books in the Lower Realm?” Yusuf Zuck suddenly asked. “Of course!” Parker Berger nodded: “While in the Lower Realm, I authored four books and five classics, with “The Book of Changes” being the most widespread. Even scholars today continue to study my Book’s techniques.” “No way? Do you know about Earth?” Yusuf Zuck asked with raised eyebrows. “Hm?” Parker Berger trembled all over: “Your Majesty…what do you mean?” “I’m asking if you know about Earth!” Yusuf Zuck asked eagerly. “During my fifth reincarnation, I indeed reincarnated on ancient Earth. Could it be that you…” “Hahaha!” Hearing Parker Berger’s words, Yusuf Zuck burst into laughter. What the heck, what a coincidence; this Parker Berger was that Parker Berger, the author of “The Book of Changes.” “Whew~” Hearing Yusuf Zuck’s laughter, Parker Berger took a deep breath and then laughed: “My fifth reincarnation was a happy time!” “Say no more.” Yusuf Zuck waved with a laugh: “Help me set up the Empire, and as soon as I step into the Tao Lord realm, I’ll immediately step down for you. What a surprise, a happy surprise to meet you, now I’m reassured, I’ll do as you say!” “No, you are the King, and everything must still follow your lead for you to maintain the authority and image of a monarch. Of course, now you already possess the magnanimity of a monarch!” “Haha!” The two of them shared a glance and laughed. “Alright, I’ll leave this to you, and I’ll go prepare the provisions!” Yusuf Zuck patted Parker Berger on the shoulder and then strode out. Outside the hall, Charles Gardner stood like a timid little servant, constrained in a corner, not daring to move or look around, for while he was a servant, he also faced the constant threat of death. “Come here!” Yusuf Zuck called to him after going out! “Greetings, Your Majesty!” Charles Gardner jogged to Yusuf Zuck’s side. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ NoveI~Fire.net “Didn’t you send someone to kill me? Why haven’t they arrived?” Yusuf Zuck asked suspiciously. “Replying to Your Majesty, they are not as fast as you, but they will probably arrive tonight, six in total, all intermediate Tao Lord realm! Of course, with me here, they won’t dare harm Your Majesty. I will assist you in capturing them alive!” “This is a good strategy; you send them over batch by batch, and I’ll receive them in turn, haha, by then all your Heaven One Gate experts would have come over, leaving it an empty shell!” “Your Majesty, actually my father is currently secluded in a life-or-death cultivational retreat. If we return to Heaven One Gate now, I can at least draw over more than half the people, then Heaven One Gate would have millions at your command!” “Even if Your Majesty has the confidence, I can assist you in killing my father!” Charles Gardner made a throat-slitting gesture to himself, extremely fierce! “Your father may be easy to kill, but I can’t possibly let everyone take the Mind Control Pill. So, let’s first bring people over. When there’re enough people, and only your father is left at Heaven One Gate, we’ll decide his life or death then!” “Yes, everything follows Your Majesty’s command!” Charles Gardner said respectfully. “By the way, who holds the financial power in Heaven One Gate? I need Spirit Stones, lots of provisions!” “That would be me, Heaven One Gate’s Spirit Stones, most of them, aside from the small portion my father has, are with me, but the provisions are at Heaven One Mountain Gate!” “Spirit Stones are with you? How many?” Yusuf Zuck’s eyes brightened. “Not sure of the exact number, as there are monthly incomes from Heaven One Gate, I don’t usually check the accounts, the incoming Spirit Stones are directly handled by me, but roughly…let me check!” Charles Gardner didn’t stash away any, behaving extremely loyally! “Got it, a total of over 800 trillion.” As he spoke, he handed a ring to Yusuf Zuck: “This ring contains 810 rings, each containing a trillion Spirit Stones!” “Holy smokes, so wealthy?” Yusuf Zuck’s eyes sparkled like little stars; over 800 trillion? The concept of a trillion? That’s trillions; Heaven One Gate is incredibly wealthy! “Haha, Charles Gardner, you’re really something!” Yusuf Zuck laughed heartily; now the money issue was solved, only provisions were missing. Meanwhile, as Yusuf Zuck and Charles Gardner chatted, in another domain in the Transit Realm, within a city called ‘Yellowstone Domain,’ a bloody massacre was taking place. Over a hundred masked figures dressed in black were besieging a man and a woman. The man was burly and powerful, and the woman was exquisitely beautiful! Both had injuries, but there were dozens of corpses at their feet, suggesting that both sides had been battling for a long time. “Fool Yusuf, Rene Brennan, today you can’t escape, surrender now!”
