Chapter 128: 128 Holy Cult
The title Great Dragon King was something Altair had never expected, but he was quite satisfied with it.
After beating Luo Hao, Altair summoned the people from the Holy Cult of the Five Mountains. Since the fight was over, it was time to get down to business.
First, Altair announced that from now on, the position of sect leader belonged to him. If anyone had any objections, they could step forward. No one dared to voice any dissent, not even Luo Hao.
This world allowed people to enter and exit at will, so Altair naturally needed a base of operations.
Then, Altair declared that the Holy Cult of the Five Mountains would begin managing all the mystics in this territory and would cooperate fully with the government to help solve any supernatural issues that arose.
Previously, the Holy Cult of the Five Mountains had some cooperation with the government, but it was superficial. If a heretic god appeared within this territory, the government would inform the cult, who would then notify Luo Hao to deal with it. Beyond that, there was no further collaboration.
After the changes, the Holy Cult of the Five Mountains began comprehensive cooperation with the government in various areas.
Next, the mountain was to be rebuilt. Due to Altair's nuclear explosion entrance, the mountain had been destroyed, so it needed to be reconstructed, and this time, it would be transformed into a scientific research city.
Luo Hao would serve as the city's lord, overseeing the mountain.
Luo Hao possessed an authority called Terrible Metropolis, which she obtained by defeating Saturnus, the Roman god of harvest. This was a passive ability that activated when a certain number of people were within a certain range around her. It was a geomantic authority that allowed the civilization and technology of the surrounding humans to develop rapidly. As long as Luo Hao was present, the surrounding area would prosper, technology would advance quickly, the land would yield bountiful harvests, commerce and industry would flourish, the city's inhabitants would become fortunate, and public safety would stabilize. In strategic games, this would be considered the ultimate cheat-like aura.
If Luo Hao had used this authority earlier, this territory would have long become stronger.
However, Luo Hao disliked technological products and preferred to stay secluded in the mountains, even driving away the people around her!
As punishment, Altair forced Luo Hao to use this authority. Since she liked staying on the mountain, he decided to rebuild the mountain and move people there!
Luo Hao immediately objected, but Altair beat her up again.
Altair deliberately let Luo Hao rest for a while to recover her magical power. Then, in front of the Holy Cult of the Five Mountains members, he engaged in a second battle between Campiones, once again defeating Luo Hao.
After that, Luo Hao had no more objections.
In this world, the one with the strongest fist makes the rules!
This new mountain City would specialize in developing high-tech innovations, utilizing Luo Hao's technological aura to research new technologies. Once results were achieved, they would be sent out of the mountain City for further research elsewhere.
Although Luo Hao's aura was incredibly powerful, it had one drawback: once she left, the area would rapidly decline. Altair found this setting quite absurd because technological advancements didn't just come out of nowhere; they were based on new knowledge that could be passed down. He couldn't understand how already acquired knowledge could deteriorate.
But even if it declined, it didn't matter. As long as the research was conducted in the Mountain City, the results would be tangible. Once the technology was taken out and handed over to external scientists for further study, they could reverse-engineer it and naturally grasp the new knowledge.
How could I not deal with you?
No matter which world he was in, as long as this territory existed, Altair would do his best to help, especially in a world where he could enter and exit at will. this territory was his base, and he had to elevate its technological level.
Of course, building a new mountain City in the mountains would take time. Even though Altair and Luo Hao had already destroyed the mountain twice, constructing an entire city couldn't be done in a day. Until the new mountain City was fully built, Luo Hao didn't need to stay there, and neither would Altair.
To enjoy life, Altair took Luo Hao and her disciple Lu Yinghua to a city. He wanted to enjoy a few days of convenient and comfortable modern life!
"Indeed, no matter which world it is, the housing prices are always terrifying."
In the suite of a high-end hotel, Altair sat on a single sofa, reading the newspaper delivered by the hotel. Seeing the latest news on housing prices, he couldn't help but utter a soul-deep complaint.
"These are just the dwellings of mortals. For the Dragon King, you don't need to pay any price. Whatever you need, we can obtain it for you."
Lu Yinghua stood by the door, smiling as he responded to Altair's words.
Originally Luo Hao's disciple and assistant, he had now become Altair's assistant. Of course, Luo Hao was also Altair's assistant, and she was present as well, sitting on the sofa opposite Altair.
After being beaten twice by Altair, Luo Hao had become much more subdued. Although she was still arrogant to her subordinates, she had toned it down considerably. As Luo Hao put it, Altair was now the cult leader, and she wouldn't overstep her bounds unless he gave the order.
"No need. I won't be staying in this city for long, so wasting manpower and resources is pointless."
Altair had no interest in Lu Yinghua's suggestion. He put down the newspaper and looked out the window, then began to ask,
"How are things arranged in Japan?"
"We've already sent people to notify them. At the current speed, the plane should have arrived in Tokyo. Before departure, we sent a notice in the name of both you, the Dragon King, and my master. They should already be at the airport welcoming our envoy."
"Tell them to hurry up. I'll be going to Japan with her in three days. By then, I expect the secret technique to have been lifted, or else I'll make an example of them."
"Yes, I'll relay the message."
Lu Yinghua bowed in acknowledgment.
Altair then turned his gaze to Luo Hao, his eyes filled with exasperation.
"So, isn't this much better? Did you not use your brain at all before?"
"I..."
Luo Hao opened her mouth to defend herself but couldn't find the words. In the end, she could only lower her head.
"Brother, your reprimand is justified."
