Chapter 176 - 176 Recall and Corrupted Life (2)
176 Recall and Corrupted Life (2)
Ning Shi recalled that ever since he came to the World of Moen, he had always been focusing on leveling up, becoming stronger or completing the game missions. He had not properly relaxed and enjoyed the local customs of this world.
Since he had nothing to do for the time being, Ning Shi planned to experience the corrupted life of a noble.
Ning Shi didn’t do anything to the eight great ruler level super magical beasts on the Super Divine Mountain. He would leave these beasts to Lena who was developing.
This would also be training for her.
Thinking of this, Ning Shi turned into a flash of lightning and quickly flew toward the Moen Continent.
More than four hours later, Ning Shi arrived at the Tianqing Mountain Range on the Moen Continent. After traveling for another hour, Ning Shi returned to Duohuang City.
After more than two months of development, the current Duohuang City was no longer the chaotic land of evil that Ning Shi had first arrived in.
The stable environment attracted more merchants to carry out international trade here. In addition to this, due to Ning Shi having secret control over countless resources to build magic core weapons here, a prosperous city was created.
The city wall, which used to be more than five meters tall, had been expanded and was now 30 meters tall.
Due to the policy of equality among ethnic groups in Duohuang City, everyone could enjoy equal treatment as long as they were residents of the city. Therefore, many races from the deserted north plains moved here to settle down.
There were all kinds of beastman races, a large number of gnomes, barbarians, nomads and so on. Many races were proud to be able to reside in Duohuang City.
Under such circumstances, the population of the city expanded rapidly. In just a few months, the population had exceeded five million.
The city was originally designed to accommodate two million people at most, and even then it would already be very crowded.
Therefore, new houses and rows of new streets were built outside the city walls.
The area surrounded by the city walls became the prosperous inner city of Duohuang. An even larger outer city began to form outside the city walls.
Fortunately, there were plains all around Duohuang. After mastering brick baking, expansion was not difficult at all.
The World of Moen did not have any skyscrapers at all. It was a miracle for a city to have a population of more than five million.
Due to Ning Shi’s existence, this miracle continued to develop, and the population of Duohuang City continued to increase.
In the foreseeable future, Duohuang City would become the largest city on the Moen Continent.
In order to experience the changes in Duohuang, Ning Shi did not use the thunder escape technique. Instead, he chose to walk into the city.
The commerce in Duohuang was flourishing, and the pace of life in the World of Moen was relatively fast. Everyone was busy making money, hoping to live a better life.
There were lots of people on the streets, and all of them seemed to be in a rush.
Even so, everyone would stop and bow to Ning Shi after seeing him.
According to the City Hall’s plan, a huge square was built in the city center and was called Freedom Square.
In the center of the square, there was a 100-meter-tall statue.
Regardless of where one was in the city, as long as they looked up, they would be able to see the statue.
The statue was of City Lord Ning Shi.
Therefore, the people of Duohuang City were very familiar with Ning Shi’s appearance.
When they saw the City Lord appear in person, be it out of respect for his position, or out of genuine gratitude for him creating the city, they all paid him the highest respect.
Walking on the streets, Ning Shi saw that most of the people were dressed in decent clothes. They looked healthy and their clothes were clean. Everything was in order, and city guards patrolled the area from time to time.
No one dared to fight on the streets anymore. Those who needed to fight would go to the arena.
He checked out the shops along the road and saw a wide variety of goods.
There were specialty foods that emitted an alluring fragrance, as well as all kinds of magic core tools that covered all aspects of clothing, food, housing, and transportation.
Most importantly, there were large theaters on some streets.
Many people would buy tickets to the theaters to enjoy all kinds of performances. People were becoming more and more cultured, which was a sign of rich material life.
Seeing such a prosperous city, Ning Shi felt a sense of achievement. He had created this city by himself.
Duohuang City had turned from a chaotic city of sin to the pearl of commerce on the Moen Continent.
It was all achieved due to Ning Shi’s guidance.
When he returned to the City Lord’s mansion, just as Ning Shi had sat down, Snow Fog rushed over upon hearing the news of his arrival.
She reported to Ning Shi excitedly, “My Lord, we’ve already built hundreds of beginner starlight collectors. The growth of the star core has accelerated!”
She continued, “The foreign worlds’ diplomatic corps have arrived at the Brad Empire’s capital, Golden Lion City. Joseba has met with them, and rumor is that they would reach an agreement soon. The Mieln Federation will help us produce a large number of parts for the starlight collectors. We only need to assemble them in Duohuang!”
If it was in the past, Ning Shi would have been very happy to hear this news. Moreover, he would have shifted his consciousness to the Starfall to check on the speed of growth of the star core.
However, having decided to relax today, Ning Shi was no longer interested in these things.
He looked at the beautiful Snow Fog.
Her silver hair was soft and shiny, and her big eyes were sparkling. The skin on her face was so delicate that it seemed like it would break if he blew on it. The way she looked at him was also unabashedly filled with love.
Ning Shi caressed her head and said, “I’m going to have a good rest for now and experience the corrupted life of an emperor. Do you want to keep me company in bed tonight?”
Ning Shi just wanted to tease Snow Fog a little. His original plan was to find Ilya first.
