Chapter 472 - To Devour a Golden Core

After Fang Ning outsourced the coding work to Anderson and his men, he strolled leisurely around Australia with the game book in hand to appreciate the beautiful scenery.

This land had witnessed the growth and road to fortune for most alternate history fiction storylines…

The fame of the Australians, the awe-inspiring medieval Aborigines, was not a mere embellishment.

It must be said that Australia was indeed a land blessed by the Heavens. With a small population, Australia had a wide land area rich in minerals. The only drawback was probably the lack of water. Australia was mostly dominated by arid deserts, with the coastal areas that circled the island as the only places suitable for human residency.

It was a no-brainer that the demons would choose to reside here. With the coming of the Era of Vitality, the strong could now have more power to change their surroundings. The ability to manipulate the weather and bring rain had already become a reality.

After all, the scientific method of cloud seeding would still require a certain level of water vapor in the air for it to work. On the other hand, magic could move the floating clouds from above the ocean to shift the location of a thunderstorm to the arid areas. The economical impact that this world-shifting magic could bring was obvious to everyone that had even average intelligence.

Naturally, only the highly established organizations could afford to foster a powerhouse like this. A person with similar powers was now residing within Cloud Fog City, entirely supported by them.

With the sheer number of demons, it was natural that they would also possess someone similar within their ranks.

It was obvious that if they were to take hold of the fertile land of this island, their potential would rise to unimaginable levels.

Fang Ning’s vacation mood was draining fast as he strolled around the area.

Smoke and gunpowder blanketed his surroundings. Everywhere he looked, fire crackled and roared as a cacophony of terrified screams formed an eerie choir. As an outsider, it was not appropriate for him to judge the right and wrong in the fight for land between the White Australians and the Aborigines.

After all, most of the Australians now were immigrants and did not have any historical feud with the Aborigines. They were entirely innocent. Unfortunately, no one would spare a thought on this during a dispute. Only Vigilante A would take the time to examine whether each individual was innocent…

Sir System was busy leveling and patching that Fang Ning had to take up the responsibility to eliminate the criminals that took the advantage of the prevailing chaos to loot the houses nearby.

As predicted by Sir System, they did manage to accumulate a significant amount of experience points.

The frequency of evil doings during a large scale conflict would be much higher when compared to times of peace.

The dark side of war was indescribable…

At this moment, Fang Ning levitated in the air and looked at a faraway wooden mansion that just caught fire. Helplessly, he shook his head.

Beneath him, both male and female owners and the pair of children bowed appreciatively at Fang Ning. With their palms put together, words of thanks were spilled repeatedly from their lips. They appeared to be Asian.

Just before this, he threw the two criminals that attempted to murder this innocent family into the raging fire, as if they were nothing but garbage.

Fang Ning always had a kind heart. However, when he saw how the two criminals tied the family and set them on fire just for their amusement, they were no longer humans in his eyes. In fact, they were worse than beasts!

Those who played with fire would ultimately be burnt.

At the same time, he had finally understood that those once law and order was no more, repulsive practices would grow exponentially without restraint. It was entirely possible for those who seem to be good to commit unforgivable acts.

Order was the true foundation of justice!

He had thoroughly realized this truth.

No matter what happened, he shall never let the world fall into utter chaos.

Regardless of the excuses these Aborigines provided, this was not the time for them to start trouble in abandon.

“Alright, it’s time to find the one behind all this chaos. We must stop them from stirring trouble as they please.” Fang Ning said, determined.

And thus began Vigilante A’s journey of seeking justice in Australia…

In the Greater Rat Clan’s Underground Kingdom, Bai Shixin was busy hosting Cang Lang, the military affairs executive member of the Demon Alliance who paid a visit to his house.

“Vigilante A has arrived in Australia. It is true that he will be there wherever evil spawns.” Cang Lang commented calmly.

Now, he no longer had even a hint of perplexity that he felt at the Fellowship Meeting at the Cloud Fog City.

“Haha, you’re wise indeed, Executive Lang,” flattered Bai Shixin without batting an eyelid.

“Those Aborigines are truly a bunch of lowlife humans. In the end, Vigilante A still managed to catch them on the hip. We told these greedy men that we wanted only the land, but they went to rob the others of their wives and children. As a result, all of their leaders were captured and suppressed by Vigilante A. Hmph, those despicable things were beyond rescue.” Cang Lang snorted cruelly.

As a superior Celestial Wolf, it naturally has its own pride and honor. There was no doubt that the deeds done by the Aborigines were distasteful to it. Those who could not control their own sinful desires were definitely good for nothing.

“From what we can see now, these short-sighted Aborigines would not be suitable for us to foster. The most they can do is to serve as a small obstacle to the humans. Never could they siege the entirety of Australia. What do you plan to do, Mr. Executive?” Bai Shixin asked.

“Huhu, those were only the initial steps in my plan. My true strategy has yet to be revealed, and it might just let all the demons in the world finally see what the humans are truly capable of. It could let them finally build their own country in order to protect their own dreams. When that happens, it’s possible that we would not only obtain Australia, but the entire world.”

Even though the Aborigines Agent Scheme that Cang Lang proposed at the Demon Alliance Conference has failed, he did not feel much disappointment.

It really seemed that he was just laying a foundation for its true plan.

“Do clarify, Executive.” Bai Shixin’s words were light.

This meeting must mean that the wolf was in need of his help.

“Huhu. Chief Bai, please take a look at this scroll.” As he spoke, Cang Lang passed a scroll over to the Chief.

“Golden Core Cultivation?” Bai Shixin felt his heart tensed when he saw it.

Similar types of cultivation abilities once took the Upper Realm by storm.

It aimed to cultivate a core that could store and revolve magical energy as the basis for cultivation, and this ability hoped to bring its cultivator to a higher stage, and boasted multiple benefits.

However, after the gradual expiration of vitality, this method became too burdensome for the existing resources that people ultimately stopped learning it.

“Demons and humans could both cultivate Golden Cores, and Golden Cores could grow stronger after they devour other Golden Cores…” After he opened the scroll, he immediately realized how cruel and cunning this wolf was.

“This… It will be a foul win and a rain of blood.” Realization came quickly after Bai Shixin grossly read the contents and immediately made the connection with the gunfire around Australia.

So that was the reason. This fellow intended to let the ordinary humans understand that they were no more than sitting ducks if they remained powerless in the Era of Vitality.

Once this Ability became common knowledge, a variety of evil deeds would definitely boil underneath the surface. They will start to butcher the demons to obtain Golden Cores for their own cultivation.

After all, Golden Cores that were cultivated according to this Ability were compatible.

Vitality would always remain as mere vitality. Once a Golden Core was extracted and transplanted from one living being onto another, it could still work normally without any complications.

The only effect would be spiritual, as every Golden Core would condense the will of the cultivator!

“Understood. I will order the intelligence personnel to secretly spread this Ability to the public,” said Bai Shixin, nodding.

In contrary to what he said, he had quietly decided to immediately pass this information out.

Humans were still too innocent and inexperienced when facing the unending tactics of those from the Upper Realm!

How would they solve this problem now?
