Of course, this doesn’t an one can only sit and wait during this period.
In fact, the pest eradication plan is just one of countless important matters.
In the period when the Royal City was about to shift into an expansionist war regi, there were nurous things that needed preparation.
In the Supre Council, after days of negotiation, the King and the Elder Council finally reached a consensus.
The Elder Council made many concessions, even agreeing that the King would have full control of the war efforts, and they were not to intervene unless absolutely necessary.
This way, even if there were so unreasonable expansions, the Elder Council wouldn’t be able to stop them.
The reason the Elder Council was able to do this was that Rod’s sharing of the Star Town expansion experience during the negotiations played a critical role.
Of course, this was also slightly related to Rod’s increase of the True Silver Vein’s output share, from twenty to thirty percent.
Although the Elders viewed money as dirt, their sons, grandsons, daughters, and relatives still needed to eat.
Everyone is happy only when they are all happy.
As a result, even though the already expensive True Silver Vein beca completely unprofitable, even at a loss.
But Rod didn’t mind. He still had the Star Light Ruby Vein and the super-large copper-iron veins, which were entirely under his ownership and sufficient to support the developnt of Star Town.
Star Town was currently managed on his behalf by Molly, an exceedingly capable deputy, who was more than able to handle all affairs without worry.
Once the negotiations ended, the Royal City officially began the transition.
Everyone beca busy, including Rod.
Even though the attack had not yet occurred and he temporarily had no authority to delve into the high ranks of the Royal City, preparing for so work wasn’t difficult.
After becoming the Captain of the King’s Hand, Rod was already one of the top figures in the Royal City.
The King’s Guard was tasked with protecting the Holy Fire Sacrificial Ground and the Royal Palace, enjoying very high authority.
As a Captain Level figure, Rod had considerable power; the Royal City was open to him, and he was unimpeded wherever he went, and everyone he encountered treated him with utmost respect.
The remaining six Chief Judges personally visited him to apologize, stating that they were not at all well-acquainted with Gregor and the other three Chief Judges.
It was clear that those four harbored ill intentions, and they had never deigned to be in league with them; they fully supported the great and just Rod in executing them.
Rod didn’t care much and sent them off with casual remarks.
As for whether they were guilty or not, that would depend on the results of future investigations.
With the six Chief Judges setting the precedent, the stream of visitors to Rod’s door was endless.
Rod received them with a smile while putting each of them on a list for later inspection.
Besides work, Rod’s spiritual cultivation did not lag behind.
Although Spiritual Energy would autonomously harmonize with the flesh after reaching Level 8, actively adjusting it ensured the best effects.
This was a very important matter that related to his future growth.
Of course, the core of his real growth lay within the Dream Realm.
Lately, the Dream Realm had been unusually peaceful, with the Book of Knowledge eating and sleeping all day, scarcely even bothering him.
Rod even felt sowhat unaccustod to it but knew it was striving to recover its Soul, so he didn’t disturb it and even placed the Spirituality from the Storage outside for it to feed on.
Now that Rod’s Spirituality had broken through the 100,000 mark, the Book of Knowledge couldn’t possibly consu it all no matter how it tried.
That made the Book of Knowledge extrely angry.
It originally planned to secretly consu all of Rod’s Spirituality as revenge for his random interference, but now that he was piling Spirituality for it to eat, it couldn’t even finish it, turning the revenge into a joke.
What angered it even more was the slow recovery of its soul. No matter how hard it tried, many mories could not be retrieved, nor could it recall where the fragnts of the dream realm were scattered.
It had been a long ti since a new dream fragnt had been found, and the road to recovery seed endless.
This worried the Book of Knowledge greatly.
The only way now was to make preparations as quickly as possible. If Rod could hunt powerful spirit realm monsters efficiently, his growth in strength would accelerate, increasing the likelihood of encountering dream fragnts.
It was an unavoidable thod, and currently, the only way to search for the fragnts was akin to finding a needle in a haystack.
Rod was already creating dream fabrications at the fastest pace. phit, having gained a large workshop and many assistants, saw a significant increase in efficiency and supplied a vast amount of materials every day.
However, creating items on the stone platform also took ti.
Even though it worked around the clock, it could not et Rod’s demands.
It appeared that embarking on a spirit realm hunting journey would still take so ti.
So, Rod could only coordinate with spiritual at each day, train with the "Star Shuttle," and take the opportunity to learn advanced combat skills.
During this ti, Rod also finished writing "Rod’s Electricity" and handed it over to Mina and her teacher Amides.
Mina despised the act of appropriating knowledge from ancient tos and claiming it as one’s own, but she was absolutely fascinated by the systematic knowledge within electricity. While studying Rod’s to, her doubts cleared, and scattered knowledge integrated seamlessly. She beca so engrossed in her study of thunder that her laboratory was always filled with flashes of lightning.
Amides indulged his disciple, even personally diving into the ocean of thunder and lightning with her.
But as a great scholar, Amides quickly grasped the relatively simple "Rod’s Electricity" and faintly sensed that it was part of a complete system with even more extensive knowledge built upon it.
Amides swiftly returned to the Royal City and, as a great scholar, represented the Supre Council of the city – the Jinworth Society – and invited Rod to visit.
Naturally, Rod saw no reason to decline.
In fact, he had long wanted to interact with the foremost representatives of Trolian knowledge to understand the type of knowledge system humanity had developed in this environnt.
The two sides quickly agreed on a ti: the tenth day of October.
This was a special day, said to be when chaos first dissipated and the world was born, as well as the date when the great Life Priest Robert successfully crossbred the first at clam.
Having a eting of knowledge on this particular day held extraordinary significance, embodying the mutual desire of both parties to use knowledge to save the world.
Not only the Jinworth Society but the White Tower, Jinworth Academy, hidden branches, and Hunter Groups also subsequently extended invitations to Rod to visit them often.
Rod set dates with each of them one by one.
He had beco extrely busy; every day was exhausting, especially when Molly occasionally returned from Star Town, adding even more to his workload.
Although there was no need for her to co back specifically, as communication could be easily maintained via Spirit Crow ssenger, Molly believed that if she did not return, Rod’s mind would be filled with thoughts of won, which could affect his efficiency.
For the future of all humanity, she considered it a sacrifice she had to make.
And so, days passed by.
Everyone was preparing for the upcoming war with all their might, but unlike before, this ti everyone was filled with eager anticipation. The ergence of Star Town greatly alleviated their survival pressures and improved their living conditions.
Everyone was extrely eager for more living space.
And for an even stronger Trolian Kingdom.
Rod felt the sa.
How could he enjoy the splendor and joy of life without a prosperous realm of mortals?
Just as he was about to continue working hard,
the Royal Palace exploded.
