"Good!"
Lin Ke readily agreed to Diana’s words.
So that’s it!
What Diana wanted was not laws to regulate the behavior of outsiders, but a codex of solemn proclamation!
A codex to deter external forces and protect the rights of the people within the Magma Territory!
"I roughly understand your aning. It seems you already have a plan in mind." Lin Ke looked at Diana with satisfaction: "Let’s hear it?"
Diana truly did not disappoint him!
Her talent in law also seed quite impressive. At least from what Lin Ke knew in his past life, he wasn’t as versed in law as a law student, who could speak eloquently with anyone.
"Simply put, like our internal laws, our external laws need to sanction those who severely infringe on our Magma Territory and the intelligent life and forces of our citizens."
Diana said, "For example, behaviors such as theft, fraud, and harm done to our people abroad would require respective individuals or forces to be held accountable, with punishnts ranging from economic to cultural to war, varying by severity!"
"For this, I am willing to bear all external pressures on , and I’m willing to offer my life and soul for the nation you envision!"
Once Diana knew that Lin Ke’s main governance approach for the territory was "to establish laws based on morals and thoughts, and to govern the land based on laws," she wholeheartedly decided to follow Lin Ke.
She could see that in the future state Lin Ke envisioned, everyone would have laws to rely on and govern by law.
Having often been bullied by unsightly laws issued by nobles of all sizes in the manor since she was young, she vowed to dedicate everything for Lin Ke’s grand blueprint!
Lin Ke is truly the noble who cares about the citizens of the territory!
"Your ideology is good, and I appreciate and support you... However, you don’t need to bear this infamous reputation." Lin Ke shook his head with a smile.
Once this external law is enacted, it’s evident many external forces will target Diana.
The Great Wilderness City was originally fine, but suddenly it beca so tough, all because of you, little Diana?
If they don’t dare act against Lin Ke, would they not dare against you?
By then, it would certainly be full of open and secret plots, and conspiracies.
"You first draft the codex and make it public when ready..." Lin Ke’s eyes glead: "Indeed, with the last handling of the Forest Hut, wouldn’t so take my kindness as weakness? Ha, with the birth of this codex, blood and storms will certainly follow... In that case, let’s call it the ’Crimson Codex,’ and establish it outside the customs!"
Feeling Lin Ke’s determination and fierceness, Diana felt a pang of emotion: "No, my lord, let bear this; your importance..."
"No problem." Lin Ke waved his hand: "They wouldn’t dare do anything to ; but for you, it’s different. Your importance needs to reflect in the law, not these matters... Do well, I’m here to handle everything."
Diana held back her tears and only nodded with determination in her eyes: "I will compile the ’Crimson Codex’ within three days! By then, the entire continent will know that our Great Wilderness will neither kill indiscriminately nor show rcy!"
"Good, you go ahead." Watching the moved Diana, Lin Ke also admired her for her serious and rigorous nature; otherwise, he wouldn’t have promoted her all along.
Moreover, he trusted Diana’s work very much.
From his knowledge of Diana, if she says she will complete it in three days, she will indeed finish it in that ti, even if it ans forgoing sleep.
Not only will she craft it excellently, but she will also diligently eliminate all possible errors, seeking Lin Ke’s guidance only for difficult decisions.
"Yes! I will go back and start writing now." Diana rose from her seat, pounded her chest, and then hurriedly left.
As for Lin Ke, he sat pensively in his seat.
The announcent of the external law, the "Crimson Codex," while making his citizens proud and secure, would inevitably stir resentnt among many forces.
Simply put, many forces originally didn’t need to enact an external codex, but with Lin Ke’s enactnt, what would they do?
Enact it, and they invite trouble.
Don’t enact it, how would their citizens view them?
Moreover, once enacted, so individuals or forces who are inherently hostile will find a way to provoke.
What you prohibit in your law, your enemies will strive to do just to infuriate you.
Besides, there are many other drawbacks.
Even his own citizens might "rely on the law," causing many unnecessary disputes.
Of course, the benefits don’t need ntioning; at the very least, in the future, when the Great Wilderness people go out, they will speak with confidence and straight backs.
Therefore, what Lin Ke needs to consider now is... strength!
Open threats are visible, but hidden ones are hard to defend against!
It’s ti for him to break through to level fifteen and achieve the Rule Body!
Once the Rule Body is achieved, ordinary harm would no longer pose a mortal threat, and even vital spots like the head or heart would beco less lethal once rule-ford or elent-ford.
Unless the skill carries rule damage.
He’s not far from level fifteen now, it’s the perfect ti for a breakthrough!
"Magnalos, make sure no one disturbs next. I need to think about so things."
Lin Ke stood up to give instructions, then walked to the position in front of his follower, pushed aside John’s seat, and sat down, taking out the Azanen Paper to start writing.
Now, the most important thing to enhance strength is to increase job levels on the three bloodlines.
Currently, the largest gap is in the [Blacksmith] profession.
Both [Scientist] and [Leader] professions, on the "Knowledge" and "Leadership" bloodlines, have reached level fourteen and don’t require promotion.
However, the [Inventor] job on the "Luck" bloodline still needs enhancing, currently standing at level ten.
As for the auxiliary jobs, reaching the Rule Body requires maintaining level fourteen upon breakthrough.
In other words, they all need to reach level thirteen now.
[Artist] level eight, [Knight] level twelve, [Blacksmith] level three...
Although he has always worked hard and achieved more than many,
It appears there is still a distance from the final goal.
"Looks like in the near future, I’ll have to train well..." Lin Ke mused, stroking the Deep Blue Tiger Tail Brush in his hand.
For the ti being, there are no wars in the Great Wilderness City; the Insomnia Emperor suppresses within, and Andrew suppresses outside the Naseng.
And he mainly needs to focus on improving his strength.
"Hmm, this scattershot approach won’t do; why not... set up a schedule? It’s a good opportunity to incorporate things from the previous life!"
