Death... and me
chapter-883

That just showed that the same method wasn't exactly the best for everyone. Sure, Roan's training definitely helped out a lot. But considering the difference in effort, Malaka should have been behind the others. "Forget it. Leave her be until the baby is born. After that, I'll have her make up for the lost time. Every second of it."

On top of Celis, where Kentucky's nest was located, a certain girl felt a chill on her back. 'I know this feeling. It's definitely Roan,' Malaka thought for a moment before she disappeared from there, much to Kentucky's confusion.

As Malo mentioned, the representatives of the new countries south of Fausec came to pay a visit to Freedom Sect. This time, the sect didn't look too weak, with only Fizer and Julia holding the fort. Instead, Freedom Sect ended up inviting a few of the Nascent Soul and Soul Transformation Realm cultivators from Freedom City as guest elders. Though, they were accepted after they helped in the city's construction with their own resources, gaining the Sect's recognition.

Naturally, they were amazed at the concentration of Spiritual Energy and Yang Energy that kept falling from above. Not only that, but the formations Rean built for the use of the disciples were also something they had never been in contact with before. After all, they were Circuitry Formations that used Sunkan Planet's formations as a foundation. Even if they weren't changed into Circuitry Formations, they would still be better than the ones found in this world.

Because of that, they were more than happy to be used as scaring tools for the sect. Naturally, the representatives from south of Fausec were a lot more willing to hear what Freedom Sect had to say.

"Hello, everyone. My name is Rean, and I'm one of the elders of the Freedom Sect." Rean then started his speech. "I asked all of you to come here because there's something our Freedom Sect, which is the strongest in the human world, wish to do in your territories."

None of the representatives doubted that. Once they saw the number of experts present, they understood that Freedom Sect could conquer their territories without even needing to fight. Fizer alone would be enough.

Rean continued, "We know that all of you had just created your countries, and the same could be said for our sect or the country we are located in. However, make no mistake. We have no intention of taking control of your territories. What we are about to do is for the betterment of the human world once the protection of the demon beasts is over."

The representative of a country called Suamae couldn't help but urge Rean after that, "Can you tell us why you called us already? We understand that we can't go against a power like yours, so make it quick. What is it? Do you want us to pay tributes for your sect? Or perhaps have us do some of your jobs?"

Rean wasn't surprised by those words. Sure enough, in a world where strength was everything, such a train of thought was common. Rean then looked at the representative of Suamae as if he was an idiot. "Let me ask you, are you a fool?"

"Fool?" The guy's expression turned worse after that. "Are you telling me that you won't do such a thing? Who would believe that?"

Rean sighed before continuing, "It seems like you're blind, then. Did you forget the name of our sect? Freedom! Do you think that forcing you guys to pay taxes or donating your forces for our sake is fit for that? Oh, right! You probably thought that the Freedom in our name meant that we would feel free to do whatever we wanted in Wringan Continent, right?"

Another representative immediately nodded after that, asking in response, "Indeed. Could it be that it isn't the case?"

"It isn't the case," Rean answered straight away. "The Freedom in our name was due to the time our members were locked down by the Zasfins. Now that we got out and can live without being worried about them, the sect's disciples chose the name Freedom for it. It's that simple."

Rean then changed the topic, telling them, "Alright, let's enter the main topic. What I want to build in your countries is a new communication system."

"Communication system? Do you mean exchanging Thoughts Transmission Talismans between ourselves? Or using cultivators to exchange messages?"

Rean immediately shook his head, clarifying the idea as he said, "The first option is too expensive. The second one would take forever to communicate. Our method is cheap, or you might say that there's almost no cost at all compared to the Thoughts Transmission Talisman. Last but not least, it allows instantaneous communication over the entire area of coverage at any time."

Rean then turned around as he asked the disciples on the side, "Give them the Nokias, one for each."

Rean then checked their numbers and used his own Spiritual Smartphone to send each number in the guests' smartphones a message. They all saw when their Nokias started to shine with light.

"Send your Spiritual Senses inside. The message I sent you will echo in your minds."

From then on, Rean went on explaining how the device worked. He also had the guests fly far away, just within the range of the antennas, before they exchanged messages between themselves. As long as they filled the Nokias with Spiritual Energy, which wasn't much, it would stay on.

Later that day, all the guests gathered in the Freedom Sect once more. Sure enough, they all looked at their Nokias as if it was some kind of treasure.

Seeing their expressions, Rean knew that they had taken his bait hook, line, and sinker. "Now then, for these devices to work, there's a need for the antennas to be installed within two to three thousand kilometers away from each other. That's why our sect wants permission to install them in your countries. Remember, communication will be the key to the human race's ascension. The south of Fausec Country is just the start. Our sect intends to cover the entire continent with it."
