Chapter 128

===================

The moment Lian Yun stood on the altar and announced that he was going to Kuoge City to fight, the whole town fell silent.

After a few seconds, the atmosphere became lively and exciting.

Lian Yun originally thought that the atmosphere would be solemn to a certain extent, and at least some people would sigh and express different opinions.

Unexpectedly, there was not a trace of dissatisfaction on the faces of the residents.

Especially the orcs and the people from Kuoge City, they were even eager to try.

Gary came to Lian Yun, and Buck soon walked out of the crowd.

Lian Yun pursed her lips, intending to listen to their thoughts.

"Don't worry, sir. Let me go to Kuoge City," Gary said first.

"I'm considered a semi-managerial figure. If we want to use the reputation of the Sun-Moon Cult to gain support and manpower, we need someone in charge to show up."

To Lian Yun's surprise, Gary and the others did not raise any questions.

She shook her head. "I'm going there myself."

The matter of conscription is of no trivial importance, and as the "leader", she must show her attitude.

Lian Yun paused, then continued, "I thought you..."

"Your Excellency underestimates us."

Buck raised the corner of his lip. "Grandpa Gerry mentioned this possibility to all of us long before you came back."

Lian Yun looked at the two of them in surprise.

Gary stroked his graying beard, narrowing his eyes and smiling, "If the situation hadn't reached an absolute point, Your Excellency would never have considered raising an army."

He saw through the girl's character. She was not someone who was keen on creating conflicts. She even wanted to avoid war more than anyone else.

Lian Yun's voice dropped. "You understand... I want everyone to live a normal and stable life."

"But someone won't allow it." Gerry took over, his eyes gleaming and his tone filled with determination: "We will overcome any difficulties and remove any obstacles... even if it means paying a price."

"Nothing, my lord, comes for free."

"If we want to live a truly peaceful and prosperous life, and even let our descendants live the same life, we must give something."

"There is no need to feel pressured, sir," Gary's steady voice penetrated Lian Yun's ears, slowly calming her fluctuating mood.

"We are fighting for ourselves."

Lian Yun was about to say something when he suddenly felt that he was being stared at strangely.

She turned around and unexpectedly met Jin Jia's eyes.

He stood under the altar, revealing his two bright eyes. He glanced at Lian Yun and the others, then lowered his head and moved in his arms.

When Lian Yun got closer, he found that he was holding paper and pen in his hands, writing quickly on the wall of the altar.

"So touching!" Jin Jia squinted his eyes and stared at the paper in front of him. He didn't notice Lian Yun coming over, and muttered solemnly, "I must write this down..."

Lian Yun: ...As long as you are happy.

The Pangolin Orc has been in the town for some time. Not only has he become friends with Abe and the former bandit orcs, but he has also become more familiar with other people in the town and feels more and more at home in the town.

When Lian Yun made these decisions, he was standing in the front row.

After hearing this, his first reaction was to stand on the side of the small town and persuade his companions.

Unexpectedly, when I turned around, my companions were even more excited than me.

"That's great!" They laughed heartily, putting their arms around each other's shoulders.

This moment made him a little dazed.

After a moment, he realized that these compatriots were not like him, who were born on the prairie and had no worries about food and clothing.

For some reason, they may never be able to return to the orc tribes.

When traveling among human settlements, they face no fewer difficulties and challenges.

They had seen countless orcs like themselves, who were burdened by their identities and prejudices and could only engage in the disgusting and terrifying profession of robbery.

After arriving in the small town, they experienced a completely different living atmosphere and had expectations that they had never dared to imagine before.

--It turns out that orcs can also live such a normal life.

Now they have the opportunity to bring Lianyun into their lives and to their fellow compatriots.

Of course it’s worth being happy about!

Pangolin felt a little sour in his nose and looked away awkwardly, only to run into the red-haired woman walking towards him.

The blacksmith who is always enthusiastic and energetic.

"Fiona." Pangolin suddenly felt embarrassed. Even he himself couldn't understand why he had a strange feeling when he saw the other person.

"Your Excellency should have announced this decision long ago." Fiona happily placed her arm around the pangolin orc. "Hear me? If you need any weapons or equipment in the future, just tell me!"

Two blushes appeared imperceptibly on Pangolin's bronze face. "I see. The weapon you helped me improve last time is very easy to use. Thank you."

The pangolin's voice became quieter and quieter, and Fiona had to listen carefully to hear it clearly.

"I will introduce more business to you."

After hearing his words, Fiona laughed heartily and patted his shoulder briskly: "Didn't you hear what the adults just said? All preparations for training will be paid for by the adults!"

She no longer has to worry about her livelihood and is even planning to go back and find some help.

Pangolin quickly replied, "Shall I go and help?"

"you?"

The pangolin tensed up when Fiona glanced at him from head to toe.

Fiona smiled. "Aren't you busy contacting the orcs and the town? Do you have time?"

Pangolin realized that he had completely forgotten his mission, but he was unwilling to give up. He shook his head repeatedly: "I'll go when I'm free! I still have one day off! I can definitely help!"

As if afraid that Fiona would dislike him, he quickly added: "I can do anything!"

Fiona raised an eyebrow, a hint of amusement in her eyes: "Okay."

Lian Yun quickly announced another thing to everyone.

The store has been upgraded, and only she and a few of her closest people know what is behind that door.

Lian Yun gained the ability to travel to the main city.

But at the same time, she also lost the store's secondary function - returning ten consecutive draws to one.

As she left the store, a mysterious feeling pushed her to the counter. As usual, she planned to use [Ten Consecutive Combinations].

However, the system reminded her that this was her last chance.

In other words, the door connecting the small town and the main city replaced the function of the secondary store.

She only had this one choice of item type to purchase.

Lian Yun thought for a long time about where to place this opportunity.

Then the task of [Industry is the second productive force] appeared, which was a reminder from the system to her.

Lian Yun was a little nervous when he first saw the name of this task.

She really felt that industry was progressing too fast for this continent, but fortunately, this mission did not require her to achieve any results in any mandatory or conditional manner.

It only gave Lian Yun a warning - hundreds of years before she came to this world, this kind of thing had already appeared in the hands of the "Second Son of God".

It also said that this information was important.

How important was it? Would it have any impact on Lianyun and the continent? Had this technology already been mastered by their enemies?

Lian Yun didn’t know.

She didn't dare to gamble.

"I want to use the last opportunity God has given me to help in the development of our town."

Lian Yun modified his language to make it easy for everyone to understand.

"My Lord, this is the oracle you received. No matter what decision you make, we will support you unconditionally."

Gerry stood at the foot of the altar and declared his position in his old and deep voice.

Everyone nodded solemnly in unison.

"Please do it with confidence, my lord."

The residents tacitly made way for him and watched Lian Yun walk down the altar and into the store.

They bowed their heads and silently prayed for the town.

May God bless them.

Their homes.

Their lord.

"If..." Honey stood beside Lina, carefully watching everyone's expressions.

Although she was unfamiliar with the town, people's prayers to God had surrounded her since she was a child.

Honey looked at the solemn adults and whispered her thoughts in a very low voice: "What if there is no God?"

She had been locked up in the basement for so long, enveloped in darkness and terror, and could only hold Nuonuo to find a glimmer of warmth. She followed the villagers in seeking help from the "gods," but received no response.

So is there really a God in this world?

The extreme silence allowed her voice, which she tried to suppress, to reach everyone's ears.

Lanna paused, and looked towards the store with a pious and gentle gaze, as if he could see through the wall and see the girl who reached out to him when he was dying and covered in blood.

No God?

Lanna curled the corners of her lips imperceptibly, and spoke out the answer that had been hidden in everyone's heart for a long time, and was self-evident.

"She is our God."

That night, a huge warehouse appeared out of nowhere on the edge of the open space south of Bubu Town.

It was larger than the largest warehouse in the town, and the loud bang when it landed woke up many people.

But everyone still remembered what the lord had said during the day—"There will be some big noises at night, don't panic, that's the factory I bought."

As for where the Lord bought it, who sent it, and what the factory is...

They tacitly chose not to ask.

Occasionally, a few curious people would climb down from their beds and look out the windows - but it was also pitch black and they could see nothing.

The factory is located outside the town.

This was Lian Yun’s choice.

[Factory: It contains machine templates that can meet all the industrial needs of your territory. It is protected by the lord's exclusive buff and cannot be destroyed. (Includes a key)]

It just so happened that Lian Yun didn't want it to take up too much space, so he placed it outside the town's protective shield so that he wouldn't be afraid of sharks destroying it; and because it had a unique key, Lian Yun wasn't afraid that others would be able to break in at will.

The factory was completed at around one or two in the morning. Lian Yun had originally planned to take a nap and go see it in the morning, but he couldn't contain his excitement and curiosity, and tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep.

She had figured out the store's tricks.

Taking advantage of her last purchase to the Death Pit - this factory almost cost her half of the gold coins!

But when she finally waited until daybreak, rushed to the factory with Buck and the others, and opened the aluminum alloy door—

Worth it!

The factory faces the semi-underground frog farm in the town across a moat. Further in are the abandoned animals that have just been settled. The orcs have skillfully built a simple wooden shed for them.

However, after learning about the tragic experiences of the abandoned animals, they are working hard to build a qualified residence for them.

When Lian Yun came back from the factory, he happened to see Lina and Honey playing in a group of abandoned animals, while Bernie was watching quietly on the side.

Like a silent guardian.

As if sensing he was being watched, Bernie slowly turned his head.

He froze.

Lian Yun subconsciously wanted to ask Lanna what happened, but then he remembered that Lanna had already set off for Kuoge City.

When she regained consciousness, she suddenly realized that Bernie's gaze had passed her and was looking behind her...

Lian Yun turned his head and saw Fisherman No. 1685 who had just emerged from the underground cave, carrying a basket of blind fish and a fishing rod with an expressionless face.
