Chapter 1178 – Requests And Demands

"Yo, Rex. What's up. I heard the situation from Moloch." Qiu Yue waved casually at Rex as she entered the meeting set up by him. The rest of the council members were surprised how casual this lady came into this important meeting, calling King Rex just by his name. This was also because most of the Military Generals that entered the room greeted him with respect. When asked by their fellow politicians, the Generals told them that there was a drastic difference in power level between him and the rest of the Generals combined together.

If they knew that he was the King of Demopolis, they would not have bothered fighting against such a strong opponent in the first place. However, considering the circumstances, most of the generals were happy that they did at least attempt to invade Demopolis or else, they would not have known the truth that the Church of the Afterlife was hiding all these times. Now they understood how Pandapolis withstood the might of the former Demopolis's armies combined.

However, as Rex saw Qiu Yue, he was delighted by her presence and at the same time relieved. "Lady Qiu Yue. It's fantastic that you are able to make time for us."

"Nah, when I heard about your planned meeting, I instinctively knew you would need me. Besides, it's great to see that the rest of them are here to join us too." Qiu Yue eyed the generals and they too smiled with pleasure.

"Who is she?" One of the politicians questioned the military general's aides.

"Lady Qiu Yue? If I am not wrong, she is the one that will revitalise our cities, gaining the very same might that allowed Demopolis to withstand the combined military power of the Seven Cities. She showed the wonders of the True God which was why the generals had decided to rebel against that obnoxious church." The military aide said with much positivity that it was kind of scary. Obviously, the council members who never went to war had no idea what to expect from her but those who were defeated by Demopolis' army understood her prowess. (Obviously, the aide was wrong since Jin was the one who aided with the creation of the Demopolis fortress.)

"So, we are doing all of them a huge favour?" Qiu Yue sat close to Rex and started to look at the additional requests by each and every city upon pledging their vassal states to Pandapolis.

"Surely, you jest. Lady Qiu Yue. You know how your ability in creating new infrastructures would be vital in getting our cities out of the current pinch. In return, we pledge manpower for your 'expeditions' as well." General Yaega from the City of Taris said.

"Ho ho… You got the news about my expeditions that quickly?" Qiu Yue looked at him with sly eyes.

"We merely heard of it from King Rex." Yaega responded instantly, hoping not to offend Qiu Yue.

"I told them the gist of it when we were waiting for you," Rex replied.

"You are so sure that I will come for the meeting?" Qiu Yue questioned as she flipped the pages of requests. They might look simple but the Empire Building Sub System User was not going to agree that easily until she saw the layout of their city. Unlike the Southern Region's Capital in the Farming World, the recreation of that particular Southern City allowed Qiu Yue to start from scratch since everything was turned into debris. But for these cities, she needed to consider their existing infrastructure before building their supposed requests.

While she could take the lazy way out and merely build what was requested, it would hurt her dignity and pride as the Empire Building Sub System User for doing such a subpar job. And also, she needed to consider the future of these vassal states. If Jin was willing to invest in them, the half baked infrastructures had to be taken down again and it would ultimately waste time and resources. So, it was best to plan carefully before proceeding ahead.

"I need to talk to each and every city builder or planner you guys had so that they could help me with the latest layouts."

"City Planners? City Builders? Layouts? If you mean the castle layouts to improve our defences, we have those but I am afraid we do not have any other layouts on paper nor those city planners you talked about." One of Taris' council members said and it hit Qiu Yue that they were not as advanced as she was.

"Then, the Sewers System? Your Housing? Gosh, you know what. Give me access to your Dungeon Cores and let me communicate with it to have a better idea of your city." Qiu Yue demanded if they wanted a revamp of their cities. There and then, the various cities' council members were mumbling to themselves, asking the military generals if it would be safe. That was when Rex stepped in and announced to the entire group his opinion.

"You wanted to improve your lives which was the reason why you raised hell against the Church of the Afterlife. And now you are contemplating as if your lives are depending on it when we asked a very simple request to look at your dungeon core." Rex said.

"But it's because we do not know what Lady Qiu Yue could do to our Dungeon Cores-'' One of the city council members from Aljun said and Rex cut in once more.

"But you guys already put your faith in the one True God. Right?" Rex said and the military generals interrupted the conversation.

"By my name and title, Yaega, the City of Taris would accept your demands," Yaega said and soon the rest of the other generals accepted her conditions as well, causing the council members to have their opinions mooted.

"That's settled then. We will go city by city. Yaega, let's get the work started." Qiu Yue said and a teleport portal appeared right beside them. The rest were surprised when they saw the opposite end of the portal was their dungeon core despite the security they had laid upon it. The Military Generals then reiterated that there was little use hiding things against them, especially when Qiu Yue was a direct disciple of the True God.

And this action alone proved to the other council members that the people in charge of the current Demopolis and Pandapolis could be the newest driving force in the Dungeon World.
