Chapter 239 - The Demon’s Invasion 17



Mass recruiting

/*unedited*/

Because of an idea from Meng Lobai, Shin Jao was able to think of a great way of using the atmosphere. Since the electronic signals could not go out of space on this planet, or maybe he didn\'t know how yet, Shin Jiao now had another idea on using this dilemma and turn it into an opportunity.

The atmosphere on this planet is different from earth. This is because it is far higher than that of earth\'s and according to his calculations, if he can send a signal to the atmosphere in a right angle, it could throw it to the end of the continent in just one go, just like having a satellite outside the atmosphere.

But this is just one of his problems and many more, so he just decided to do it one step at a time. But first, he needs to find the coordinate of the town of Dis which is now called the City of Dis.

If he can hit even one of the floating relay stations in that place, he can send a signal in there and communicate with his people in that part of the continent.

With this in mind, Shin Jiao is now working tirelessly towards this direction.

Meanwhile, the people around him gave him a look of disbelief. This is because he actually considered and even complimented an idea from a junior assistant which is just new in the laboratory.

Meng Lobai is currently blushing and feeling awkward at Shin Jiao\'s thoughtless reactions. From the looks of it, the handsome young man in front of her seems to be thinking of something and his mind is currently not in the room.

This is Shin Jiao\'s usual reaction when he is in deep thought and some of the people in this place are already used to it. But for others who are new in this place, they still didn\'t know how to react in this situation.

"Young Shin… young shin!" Elder Jugs suddenly patted Shin Jiao\'s shoulder trying to attract his attention.

When Shin Jiao felt that someone is tapping his shoulder he quickly recovered from his reverie and returned to his senses.

"Oh, Elder Jugs… Sorry about that. Guys… thank you for your hard work. This time we are going to be a bit busy. Due to Miss Lobai\'s suggestion, we now have a direction in our research… Now we need to start this research so that we can expand the range of the reach of the telephone. If I am not wrong, then we can reach up to the Kingdom of Yi with this plan." Shin Jiao explained his thoughts.

When the people in the room heard this, a shocked expression appears in their faces. What does it mean to reach that far? It means that they can communicate through hundreds of thousands of kilometers in distance in just a second. What kind of logic was that?

Everyone is now excited about the prospect of being in another project with Shin Jiao. Although this is the same project with the phone, this time they are going to make another breakthrough and would try a long-range communication. If this becomes successful, then they could not fathom the huge effect on this in the cultivation land. Many of the cultivators would greatly benefit from this and even those regular mortals would also be able to use it. They know that the lives of everybody in this continent would now be changed through this.

While everyone is thinking like this, Shin Jiao\'s mind is now running through thousands of possible applications of the new projects the laboratory would undertake.

If this is on earth, it would take them years before they can achieve as such, however, in the cultivation land where magic and mystical powers exist. Making things like the Internet, and long-range communication becomes easier and faster to realize.

Shin Jiao can even advance and take hold of virtual reality through the use of spiritual sense. With his experience and knowledge, he would be able to combine the two and make a whole new world of his own making.

With this in mind, he is now excited to turn everything into reality. Yet of course time is still his enemy and the capability and the range of knowledge of the people in the room would greatly affect the speed of their progress.

Shin Jiao didn\'t want to do everything on his own, so he would need to teach the people, line upon line until they are able to grasp the principle and be able to understand each and every underlying principle in the technology.

While the research lab in the crafting department is busy with their projects and planning. Outside of the academy people are becoming restless.

This is because the kingdom has announced a new recruitment drive for all the citizens of its land. This is for both mortals and cultivators alike.

They are calling for every cultivator and mortals to gather in the military compound to prepare for war. The decree was sent by the king to every family in the kingdom. They are requesting for one eligible cultivator to fight in the front line, and for mortals, they are asking for a single son of the family to volunteer and join the war efforts.

They know that mortals are weak; however, mortal young men would still be useful in a fight as assistants for alchemists, formation masters, and artificers. So the kingdom would accept any available hands in this war against the demons which are now slowly approaching in the far north.

It is said that the beast-men clan\'s land is now in ruins and millions have died because of the demon invasion. This is the most pressing matter for the cultivation land as millions of beast-men refugees are now staying in the borders of the land.

Conflicts have started to erupt, as the beast-men tried to push their way through. They didn\'t want to face the deadly demons as they have already experience the brutality of those bloodthirsty monsters.

And now in the military compound, hundreds of thousands of both cultivators and mortals have started to gather. Although there are those who are reluctant to sacrifice their lives in this war, however, the kingdom is offering a very tempting reward. For cultivators, they can earn merits and gain a precious magic stone.

Magic stones are different from spirit stones as magic stones contain a great amount of mystical power. It could enhance a cultivator\'s rate of cultivation by 20% and can help them attain enlightenment if they are lucky.

Plus magic stones are hard to find, yet the kingdom is willing to fish out magic stones for those who would enter the war. If they can survive and return to the kingdom, then they would be rewarded one magic stone. If they gained more merit and become of great help to the kingdom then, they would gain more magic stones.

The more magic stones they can have the faster they can cultivate.

But of course, this is with the premise that they can return alive in the kingdom or gain much merit in the war.

As for the mortals, they would gain more gold and silver and also some spirit stones. If they died in the war, then their families would get the treasures they can obtain.

This is very tempting to all the people in the kingdom of Wu because they know that the kingdom of Wu is fair when it comes to reward and sacrifice. The royalty is very generous when it comes to the merits of an individual because of the king\'s grace.

"Hey, what do you think would happen in the war? Do you think the demons are what they said them to be, bloodthirsty and brutal?"

"I don\'t know, maybe… But I think we can defeat them. Unlike those lowly beast-men, we cultivators do not rely on just our own powers. We are wise enough to craft artifacts that can boost our own strength by more than half."

"Yeah, you\'re right. But, what confuses me are these lowly mortals here? Why would the kingdom waste their time on these lowly beings?"

"Hush! Do you think that because you are stronger than them, they can\'t be of help to you? Are you willing to be a mere assistant of an alchemist, a craftsman, or an array master?"

"Hey, do you think that we can see the second prince of the Xi Empire?"

"Hell, yeah! If we can be in the second prince\'s camp then I would give my best to drive those demons away. I will show those demons how powerful I am… haha…"

These kinds of discussions can be heard inside the military compound where people are now gathering in droves.

Suddenly, while the people are discussing, a group of men came out from inside the buildings and walked in front of the table in an orderly manner. From their aura and behavior, it is clear that they are well disciplined and trained.

Then one of the men, wearing a different robe than the rest, walked in front of the crowd.

"Brave citizens of the Wu Kingdom! The military welcomes you all for volunteering in this fight against a foreign enemy. All of you will be undergoing some military training for a month in the military compound. We are going to turn you into war machines that would make those creatures wish that they would not have invaded the cultivation land… And once you returned, the kingdom would reward you handsomely for the service you will render." shouted the man as he stood like a spear in front.

After hearing his words, mixed emotions can be seen in each of the cultivators and mortals in the crowd. They didn\'t know how to react to this situation.

"All right fall in! The cultivators form a line to the right and the mortals to the left. Now go! Go! Go!" the man suddenly shouted.

After his shout, multiple people came forward and began helping the crowd arrange themselves.

Everyone knows that this is the start of their journey towards facing incredible odds and an unknown enemy. No one knows which side would win, either the cultivators or the demons.. Only destiny would decide the fate of each of the races in the continent.
