Merchant From Earth in the Magical World-Chapter 541 - 380 New Executioner_1
Four months!
That was Yan Xing's estimate of the maximum time the savages could endure under such military pressure. Once that day passed, if the Orcs wanted to avoid a large-scale internal famine, they would have to go all-in and launch a war of national peril.
Victory or defeat mattered not.
Only by luring out the ultimate creature could the Orcs seek survival amidst death.
Yan Xing did not want the ultimate creature to intervene in the war, as that would cause him to lose control over the overall situation.
Therefore, he agreed to Cloud Tower's request for a final showdown.
Neither Cloud Tower nor Thunderous Swamp had an ultimate creature in the background. They could throw caution to the wind and let a single battle determine the victor and the vanquished.
As for inviting world heroes to watch the battle...
It was merely an opportunity to covertly arrange some things to his advantage while constructing the venue.
Yan Xing wouldn't really be foolish enough to abandon his advantage and play such childish games with Cloud Tower.
Within the rules, all means were permissible.
After Yan Xing, representing Thunderous Swamp, made a pact of war with Cloud Tower, the engineering teams of Eternal Domain set out for the plains designated as the Century Battlefield. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
The Goblin, Gaga, took charge as the chief engineer for the war-spectating facilities.
In four months, he and his team were to use airship and Floating Warship technology to construct at least forty tiered, floating viewing pavilions above the plain.
These had to accommodate the viewing and spending needs of over one hundred thousand on-site spectators.
Furthermore, protective designs for each floating pavilion needed to be implemented to ensure the safety of the spectators.
In addition, live broadcasts of the war would be conducted in Eternal Domain, Nuta City, Storm, and Frostleaf City. How to arrange cameras on the battlefield to satisfy the visual experience of a million viewers was also a great test of Goblin Gaga's abilities.
When Eternal Domain formally launched the project for the battlefield's viewing pavilions and live broadcast, the global sensation it created was no less significant than Lord Yan Xing accepting Cloud Tower's duel challenge.
It truly blew everyone's minds.
Was this confidence? Or arrogance?
Was Lord Yan Xing certain he could win?
Amidst various speculations, the construction of the Century Battlefield progressed urgently. The Goblins felt immense pride participating in the creation of this marvel. They believed that once the viewing pavilions were hoisted into the sky, they would become the world's most dazzling jewel.
Resources from Eternal Domain were also massively diverted to the Century Battlefield. Simultaneously, preparations were made to welcome the influx of world heroes to Wildwind Highlands in four months.
Eternal Domain intended to use this opportunity to fully showcase its advancement and prosperity to the world, making it clear what kind of power was destined to dominate the future. By leveraging their advanced civilization, they aimed to encourage as many of the visiting heroes as possible to stay.
For Yan Xing, the moment this battle of the century began, he had already won.
He had the hearts of the people.
Did Cloud Tower truly believe a single war could change their fate? Naive!
On the Century Battlefield, the world's heroes would witness just how insignificant the old powers were in the face of the new. They would see clearly the direction in which the wheels of history were turning.
Compared to Cloud Tower, whose defeat was already a foregone conclusion, Yan Xing was more concerned about the true "battle of the century" involving "Reverse," the "Executioner," and the "World System."
Aboard the aircraft from Eternal Domain to Heize City, Chui Chui sat opposite Yan Xing.
"Master, we've found a suspected transmigrator in the real world."
Yan Xing was immediately interested.
"Discovered by you so quickly? This transmigrator... his skills are rather lacking compared to mine! Tell me, who is this person?"
Chui Chui first placed a tablet computer on the table in front of Yan Xing, then recounted how she discovered this suspected transmigrator.
"Master, you should be aware that Renlun Investment Bank is conducting experiments related to extraordinary abilities."
"I am. Is this transmigrator connected to those experiments?"
"Yes... Heart Demon, while working at the Griffon Island hospital, discovered during her free time that Renlun Investment Bank had long been investing in a genetic engineering project, coded 354. Much of the data and many of the materials generated from our Griffon breeding facilities were transferred to Project 354 by Renlun Investment Bank."
That's hardly something one stumbles upon by just 'idling around.' But no need to fuss over such trivial details.
"Given Renlun Investment Bank's background, they're bound to pull some minor tricks behind our backs. As long as they don't touch our core interests, we can ignore them. Continue."
"While secretly investigating Project 354, we discovered they had been cultivating a genetically optimized individual named He Qijiu in extraordinary abilities. This eventually led to him losing control.
After causing extensive casualties and destruction at one of Project 354's bases, He Qijiu abruptly vanished before all surveillance cameras.
Project 354 was forced to shut down that base.
However, five days later, He Qijiu suddenly reappeared inside that very base and escaped.
While Renlun Investment Bank was hunting him, they discovered that whenever he was cornered, he would disappear, only to reappear at the same location a few days later.
Moreover, each time he reappeared, his strength would have increased explosively.
But just as He Qijiu's strength had grown so formidable that Renlun Investment Bank was preparing to contact you, Master, he disappeared and hasn't reappeared since..."
Disappearing when cornered... he probably actively transmigrated to the Magic World. Then, after some monster grinding and leveling up, he returned to the real world. Being able to shuttle freely between two worlds and increase his strength so rapidly... that fits the profile of an "Executioner" quite well.
"How long has it been since He Qijiu's last appearance?"
