Chapter 1286: Eternal Fight of Logic
Miao Zhuo was unsure if the call ended on a good or bad note. But regardless, he would have to report it to Miao Zhenshan.
Lin Yuan could have solved Connected Beast Park’s problem immediately as it would only take one word. After all, the City Lord of Sky City was also the Moon Empress’ disciple.
However, he intentionally did not do so because he wanted the matter to blow up to a greater extent online. He wanted more people to learn about this incident, and Star Web was the only way he could garner as much faith power as possible.
Once the matter unfolded to its climax, Lin Yuan would use his identity as the Moon Empress’ disciple to do the Miao family a favor and add even more fuel to the flame that would push the popularity of this incident to greater heights. Through this, he could gain a large harvest of faith power.
Moreover, this would place the City Lord of Sky City at odds with the Moon Empress’ disciple and attract even more attention. It would also generate more debate about it online between supporters of both camps.
These heated debates would only cement the faith that these supporters had and solidify themselves as a source of faith power for one of Lin Yuan’s identities.
Lin Yuan did not care about Connected Beast Park’s ruined reputation.
By this time, the Kill Food Sky Butterfly had flown for half a day.
Lin Yuan could make out the faint outline of a majestic city that slowly became clearer as they approached.
This was Raging Waves City, which Lin Yuan had never been to before.
…
Although both Raging Waves City and Indigo Azure City were by the sea, they had completely different atmospheres.
Indigo Azure City had a more relaxed and romantic seaside feeling to it, while Raging Waves City seemed much more metropolitan.
Shallow waters surrounded Indigo Azure City, so they only needed to defend against dimensional rifts that could open anytime. They did not have to be worried about the threat of large sea creatures because they would be beached in the shallow water. After some time, the sea creature’s life would be in danger from being out of water for too long.
There was not much shallow water in Raging Waves City’s vicinity. Instead, they were surrounded by 1,500-meter deep water. With waters of such depth, it was common for large sea creatures to pass by the city.
However, this geographical environment also allowed Raging Waves City to produce so many rare deep-sea creatures. This also provided a suitable area to build a harbor which increased Raging Waves City’s ability to trade and enabled them to gain another flow of income.
Raging Waves City was often known as ‘the number one seaside city’.
In order to reduce the chance of attack by sea creatures, Raging Waves City invested a lot of money into fortifying its defenses.
Raging Waves City was the only seaside city in the Radiance Federation that had an 800-meter outer wall. When one looked down from atop the wall, any movement on the surface of the water could be seen clearly.
The wall was 20 meters thick and was embedded with many sturdy metal spiritual ingredients so that no tsunami would be able to breach the wall and enter Raging Waves City as long as it was not higher than 800 meters.
At that moment, the Kill Food Sky Butterfly said, “City Lord, we’re headed toward the islands now. Or, would you like to take a rest at Raging Waves City?”
Lin Yuan fell silent. Normally, when factions needed to report to cities about the exchange of territory if the territory lay within the jurisdiction of a city.
Lin Yuan needed to report to Raging Waves City before successfully taking over the islands from the Sea Bliss Clan.
During the journey, Lin Yuan had heard from Qi Heng that because the whale fall had just begun, it would take two or three days for the Island Whale embryo to form.
The sea factions would definitely try to protect the whale fall during this time.
Currently, everything was calm within Raging Waves City. This was enough to prove that the whale fall was still untouched.
Since it would take a few days for the Island Whale embryo to form, Lin Yuan would just be waiting if he went to the islands now.
Thus, it was better to spend the time in Raging Waves City to complete the handover of the islands from the Sea Bliss Clan to Sky City.
Since the whale fall was directly below the islands, it was considered part of the island’s area.
After the handover was over, Sky City would have reason to claim ownership of the whale fall if anyone contested them. No matter who tried to take over the large whale fall, it would be considered a provocation.
Since he made his decision, Lin Yuan turned to say to the Kill Food Sky Butterfly, “Kill Food Sky Butterfly, let’s go to Raging Waves City first.”
Lin Yuan turned to Qi Heng and said, “Qi Heng, after establishing yourself as a veteran faction in Raging Waves City for so long, you must be familiar with the city. I’m sure you are familiar with the guards here. The Sea Bliss Clan is now at the height of popularity after winning the ultimate blood pact fight against Connected Beast Park. I’m sure the Raging Waves Guard Captain won’t reject an invitation to meet you now. We’re going to process the handover of the islands now.”
Qi Heng nodded in agreement and replied, “Yes, City Lord. I am old friends with the Guard Captain of the Raging Waves Guards. He will meet with me if I call him as long as he isn’t busy.”
Qi Heng’s agreement was not fake. He genuinely hoped that the Sea Bliss Clan would hand over the islands to Sky City as soon as possible.
Lin Yuan’s request to speed up the handover meant that Sky City regarded the whale fall as a necessity.
As long as An He set his eyes on the whale fall as well, both parties were bound to clash.
Moreover, if he did not complete the transaction now and Sky City’s City Lord and An He ended up butting heads, An He would ask Qi Heng to choose a side.
At that point, he would be stuck between a rock and a hard place. No matter which side he chose, he would be offending the other party.
It would be better if he handed over the islands to Lin Yuan now to save himself from being forced to make such a decision.
Liu Jie walked over to Lin Yuan and whispered, “Young Master, let’s split up later. I will handle matters first. If a fight truly breaks out, the sea-clan experts might endanger the safety of Raging Waves City.”
Lin Yuan nodded. He knew that Liu Jie was headed for the Spirit Guards branch in Raging Waves City.
The dimensional rift active period had just ended, and the Guard Envoys stationed in the major cities had not returned to the main Spirit Guards branch in the Royal Capital yet.
This was the time when every Spirit Guards branch was at its strongest.
