Chapter 776: The Oncoming Storm

Vigilante A carefully examined every inch of the underground karst cave. The System’s memory was always reliable and would never go wrong.

Three days after, Black Robe sent a notice to inform that ten thousands of robotic spiders were ready. A construction team as large as this was even sufficient to build the Great Wall of China…

The system appreciated the fact that not even a penny was spent on manpower.

“What? The labor fees were waived but I’ve got to buy the materials on my own?” the System was dispirited by the news. “Why can’t Black Robe just finish his job properly? I can’t believe I have to do it myself…”

“You’re so hard to please. Besides, didn’t we already get our source of funding from Bai Shixin? What else do you want?” Fang Ning was utterly speechless.

“That’s true, but I still feel that I’ve suffered a loss for not getting the most out of him…,” the System said bitterly.

“Stop complaining. Whatever materials you need, just ask them to get it for you. I’m telling you, I’m not taking the responsibility of a labor contractor,” Fang Ning said firmly.

He clearly understood the effort and the struggles of overseeing a construction project. After all, he was pretty experienced in it.

“Well, this isn’t exactly my forte. According to Bodhisattva’s guide in building the checkpoint, it takes at least three months to complete the construction. After all, I can’t rely on spell-casting and build the whole thing automatically,” the System expressed his dissatisfaction.

“Are you suggesting that we find someone else? Wasn’t Anderson in charge of all the big buildings in Draconic Arcane Realm? Just let them handle it,” Fang Ning tried to evade the responsibility.

“He still has to manage the Draconic Penitentiary. How could he find time for this?” the System disagreed.”

“Sigh, only during times like these you’ll regret not socializing more and acquainting yourself with more people,” Fang Ning shook his head.

“There’s actually someone that I know, but he’s too lazy. He doesn’t really involve himself in any serious business, and he only fools around every day,” the System said bitterly.

“What do you even know? A powerful and significant man should always value his own life above everything else, and should never expose himself to any harm. After all, this place connects to the Upper Realm. If I couldn’t handle some of the strong beings that came down, wouldn’t all of us be doomed?” Fang Ning said plausibly.

“Well, you’re always in the right. Like I’ve said, you’ll always want to win in an argument,” the System was at a loss for words.

“Cut out the crap. Let me think, who else is there? We can ask Dragon Carp to come over and supervise, didn’t it do that during the construction of Morality City? Coincidentally, the construction of infrastructural facilities was completed, so it’s no longer needed there. It sits around and does nothing all day anyway, it even slept brazenly during its working hours in front of us last time,” Fang Ning suddenly thought of it.

Just when Fang Ning finished his sentence, Dragon Carp who was soaking a bath carelessly in the river of Draconic Realm suddenly felt shivers running down its spine.

It had already restored back to Lake-level, so its soul senses were regained as well.

“You’re right, it knows quite a lot about Space Passage as well. It was also quite of use when it followed us to monitor Elder Ancestor Bai last time,” the System said.

After coming to a mutual agreement, Fang Ning entered into the Draconic Arcane Realm.

On the third floor of Draconic Arcane Realm.

A long and winding golden river flowing throughout the surface.

It did not have a starting point, nor an ending point. However, that was not surprising because it was a circle…

The only wonder was the water in the river never seemed to run dry.

After River God of the Sky River recovered his powers, he built this river in the Draconic Realm.

Dragon Carp was swimming about in this river freely. After all, the river was a lot better than its tank.

The only downside was the inconvenience to collect wealth…

After all, the only ones here were the poor Whitestone people who had no savings at all.

Fang Ning was holding a big fish tank. Just when he approached the riverside, it immediately swam over and jumped out from the surface. It was shaking its head and waging its tail as a gesture to please Fang Ning.

“Lil Carp, I’ve got an important mission for you today…”

After listening to Fang Ning, it was all over the moon.

It was clearly aware of the profits involved due to its past experience in supervising a construction project.

It was not like the mortals and commoners, it knew its limits. It would not take the benefits it should not, and would never allow any jerry-building.

“Thanks for trusting me, master. I’ll put in my best efforts and serve you faithfully. I’ll make sure that the checkpoint’s impregnable to the point that not even half of any being would be allowed to pass through,” Dragon Carp was excited.

“That’s great. You can start now. By the way, wouldn’t it be inconvenient for you to work in your current condition?” Fang Ning was concerned.

“You have a point. After all, I’m half-witted by nature. Although I’m partially from the True Dragon bloodline, I can’t fully transform yet. It’s hard for me to live without the water for a long period of time,” Dragon Carp was depressed and frustrated.

“That won’t matter. As long as you cultivate diligently, the pill would still be effective. It’ll purify your bloodline, and you might even be able to do the things that you once thought were impossible,” Fang Ning served a bowl of chicken soup.

“Thank you, master,” Dragon Carp had its faith restored.

After all, it had eaten the pill given by the Venerable Dragon God in the past. It was a secret of the True Dragon Clan indeed, even the leader of the True Dragon Clan did not have the formula to create the pill…

Dragon Carp then jumped into the fish tank. Fang Ning found one of the Whitestone people as a means to carry Dragon Carp around. When the time came for it to transform, things would not be so troublesome anymore.

Truthfully, Fang Ning was curious why Dragon Carp’s Lake-level powers did not enable it to live without the water.

Perhaps it needed the environment to cultivate and restore its strength, he was lazy to ask anyway.

Fang Ning asked the System for an interspatial necklace, it was a defective item that was made of residues. Then, he placed the necklace into the tank.

“Lil Carp, I see that you’ve got quite an amount of personal belongings. I’m giving you this necklace to guard your belongings, and also it’s easier for us to keep in touch this way.” Fang Ning decided to give it some incentive as a motivation.

“I appreciate your generosity,” Dragon Carp was overjoyed. The gold bars that it previously kept hidden could finally be taken out to admire.

Now that they had found someone to be the contractor, the System handed the checkpoint blueprint that was completely designed to Dragon Carp.

Due to the fact that Dragon Carp lived in the water, the blueprint was waterproof.

The System had to thoroughly understand the guide for building the checkpoint, but Dragon Carp did not have to. It only needed to follow the blueprint strictly and build the checkpoint step by step.

If it encountered any problem, it could always seek the System for help.

After arranging everything, Vigilante A opened the door to the Land of Sanguinity. He transported Dragon Carp and the ten thousand robotic spiders to the underground karst cave to begin the construction.

Just when the checkpoint in Space Passage had started to build, Old Master Ma’s intuition slowly turned into reality.

In Mount Indigo Monastery located in Northern China.

The goddess in white was instructing him to get all the materials.

Those materials were all rare and contained some interspatial attributes. There were minerals and even plants. Coincidentally, the materials were the ones that emerged ever since the beginning of the Vitality Era on Earth.

He would not believe it if this was purely a coincidence.

Come to think of it, the goddess was probably already on Earth and was getting information through other means.

It seemed like there would be an incoming storm. He was in stuck in a predicament, but he had to go on with it no matter what.
