Chapter 590 - The Change Of An Era’s Name

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Not long after Fang Ning went back into the System Space, he was disturbed again by a message sent by Zheng Dao.

“Miss Daqing refuses to leave, it kept saying that it wants to eat since it finished its work…”

“Uh, I can’t believe I forgot about this, I must’ve been a boss for too long, I actually developed such a bad habit.” Fang Ning was rather embarrassed after reading the message, he then complained, “Sir, why didn’t you remind me? You never forget about anything.”

“Why should I remind you? It’ll be best if you can take it back…” The System replied firmly.

“I’m not like you, shameless and heartless.” Fang Ning mumbled then look at his little treasure vault.

“There’s still quite a lot of cash but as for food ingredients, I’ll need Old Man Zhao to send a new batch over. We’ll just casually fool it with it…Daqing only wants to have a full meal anyway.”

“You’re quite conscious, you didn’t ask me to use the money.” The System was very glad.

“Nonsense, of course I won’t use your money since I’m saving my hometown…but I still have to ask Zheng Dao to get some funds from the District Special Affairs Liaison Office, I can’t let them have the habit of eating free meals all the time. Superheroes don’t live on air.” Fang Ning rejoined confidently.

“I like your attitude.” The System was certain.

Fang Ning exited the System Space, passed these miscellaneous tasks to Zheng Dao, then went back into the System Space.

‘Having this disciple is totally worth it.’ As Fang Ning watched him arrange every matter neatly, he thought to himself.

If the vigilante really did things on his own, he would not be able to serve justice due to these countless matters…

Which one of his ordinary daily routines did not require money? Which one of his social intercourses was not energy-draining? If there were enemies, did he not need to spend money to seek help from others?

If it were not for this disciple of his, and if he needed to do everything by himself, Fang Ning believed that he would die from being irritated.

Now, everything was well. Although he was busy with the emergency issue, he still had the time to steal a little leisure.

China’s Truth Department.

“Fortunately, Qi City’s sudden crisis happened at the Venerable Dragon God’s hometown, the Venerable One immediately put an end to it. Nonetheless, this reminds us again that with the Era of Vitality, it is of great urgency that we build a new defense mechanism. First of all, we must assure that everyone remembers ‘safety first’ at all times.”

Ren Ruofeng announced ardently in an urgently called emergency meeting.

“Advisor Ren, what do you propose?” Somebody asked.

“I suggest that we change the era’s name.”

“Eh? This seems to be irrelevant?” Qiao Anping scratched his head and asked in confusion, “The calendars used in the past have been alright. If we change it now, what kind of mess mess will it cause?”

“Very wise.” On the other hand, Elder Xu nodded.

“Hehe, Oldman Ren, you’re always so unrestrained and you never stick to the same pattern. We should change the era’s name.” Elder Feng who had always been so conservative applauded at this idea, and agreed with him.

“Change the era’s name.”

“Change the era’s name.”

Both Elder Hai and Hong Yunjiao nodded in agreement.

All of a sudden, among the six bosses of Truth Department, other than Qiao Anping who was unclear of the truth, the other five approved of this.

“Can somebody explain?” Frustrated, Qiao Anping asked.

“It’s very simple. Through a change in the calendar, everyone will notice first thing every day that there’s really a change in the era. The Era of Vitality is no longer an era where people live and worked peacefully, it’s an era where people will regress if they stop advancing. When we look at the new era, we’ll understand that the environment we’re living in now and the past eras will be gone forever.” Ren Ruofeng explained.

“Oh, I think I understand a little. What era name should we use then?”

“Shenyuan (TN: In past Chinese era names, there were names like Kaiyuan, Jianyuan and so on. For this case, the ‘Shen’ in Shenyuan means God). Qixi (TN: The seventh day of the seventh lunar month) of the year 2017 is the first year of Shenyuan, and today is the third year of Shenyuan.”

“What’s the meaning behind this?” Qiao Anping questioned.

“The Era of Mythology is here, everyone can become God. This is an inexplicably mysterious era, and it’s an era that belongs to China!” Ren Ruofeng was enthusiastic.

Even though he looked like he was 18 or 19, in reality, he was 76 years old, and he had experienced all the sullen times that China had gone through.

He was totally different from a fellow like Fang Ning who lived in the new era, and was corrupted by peaceful days. Though Ren Ruofeng suffered some setbacks in his life, because of his upbringing, he always had a firm aspiration.

He wanted to witness China truly rising up again, and would become the real “Celestial Empire”.

Now that the lunarette crisis was resvoled, and the power transition in the Greater Rat Kingdom was done, as his plans were gradually completed, his ambitions flourished even more.

At this instant, he was immensely grateful for having learned the Evergreen Supreme Technique.

Despite this technique having a weak combat capability that disallowed him from being a hero on battlefields, such that he could only rely on Nets Above Snares Below to occasionally display his prowess, it gave him unceasing vigor that prospered, and long life.

If one only cultivated until Pond-level or even Lake-level, one could not prolong one’s life. At most, one could only live one’s life to the fullest.

For an example, the upper limit of a human’s life was roughly between 120-150 years old, so a Pond-level powerhouse could live for more than 130 years but would not live past 200 years old.

Right then, Qiao Anping suddenly spoke, cutting off Ren Ruofeng as he began wandering in his thoughts.

He furrowed his brows and expressed, “Alright, change the era’s name, I understand it now but we’re in no hurry for this. How should we settle the matter in Qi City now? This is an imminent crisis.”

Ren Ruofeng nodded then replied, “According to the intelligence sent by Butler Zheng, a spiritual master from the upper realm released the Brain-Devouring Parasite, which aims to spread infection among those who have low cultivation proficiency. It is hiding mysteriously, and is a big threat. Currently, even though the epidemic has been settled by the Venerable One, the root of the trouble managed to escape, thus the grave disease will take root in society again sooner or later. We’ll be taking measures such as having close supervision, and the preparation of medical personnel. This is because when this poisonous insect attacks, humans will fall into a coma. If nobody takes care of them and transfuse intravenous drips for them, they’ll certainly die from hunger, which is actually the biggest threat.”

“Right now, there’s already a shortage of medical personnel in the country for even the general medical affairs, let alone sending them to handle a large scale calamity like this.” Qiao Anping had a pretty good idea of what was going on.

“Hehe, we’ve already developed a kind of spiritually-controlled medical mech that can set up a spiritual link with the related doctor to provide remote medical service, just like a real person. In this way, many doctors will be able to perform life services without needing to leave the hospital.”

“Oh, based on what you’re saying, that’s really quite convenient. It’ll be able to gather all doctors with free time in a short period of time, and they can manage the situation from there.” Qiao Anping nodded then asked a new question, “What about the fees? Given the budget that we have, I’m afraid we won’t have enough?”

“We’ll use the emergency safe budget. The thing is, now that everything is in short supply, it’s time to expand productivity. Only by expanding productivity, we’ll have more money. As a result, we’ll be able to improve the lives of the people, and prepare for wars and natural disasters.” Ren Ruofeng had knowledge in this.

Printed notes were not truly money but stock produced from factories. Vegetables grown from the ground were real money.

“Advisor Ren is right. The Truth Department is mainly responsible for managing special affairs and maintaining order. As for tasks like improving productivity, let us handle it…” Elder Feng frowned.

“The growth of productivity in the Era of Vitality is the biggest special affair…” Ren Ruofeng said plainly.

“That’s true. Let us apply to establish a subordinate branch that will specialize in this, it’ll be situated below the Sky Garden Institute, and Principal Xu will be in charge of it.” Elder Feng nodded in agreement. As a matter of course, he would not object the expansion of powers of this body.
