Alien world

Chapter 1460 94. The Great Annan

A new day brings three pieces of good news to Annan:
The first two good news are that the virgin fruit and the ancient oak seeds have sprouted, and Liberty City will soon have its own stable means of cultivating professionals and tree people.

Although this will soon be measured in years.

The third good news is that the long elimination round will be over in one day.

Although the qualifying round will follow, there will only be one hundred contestants competing in seven days, so there is no need to rush through and eliminate most of the contestants.

“Can we plant it on a large scale?”

"Aren't you afraid of producing deformed seeds?"

"deformity……?"

Dad said that usually plants affected by the world tree will only grow healthily, but the vitality of the other world tree is different from that of Allen's world, and no one knows what the plants affected by it will grow into.

It is best to plant only a portion of the virgin fruit and ancient oak species first, and then observe.

Dade thought it would be complicated to explain, but she didn't expect Annan to understand it immediately.

"The more advanced the life, the more complex the genes, right?"

"Gene……"

"It's just... uh..."

Annan was stuck there like Martin who had lost consciousness. After a while, his eyes regained focus.

"Then do as you say, but since we are short of time, let's use half of it for the experiment."

"it is good."

As a result, Dad couldn't leave again, and it seemed that her appointment as a professor of agriculture would have to be postponed for the time being.

Of course, this good news must be told to Olmedo.

With malicious intent, Annan sneaked to the third floor of the city lord's mansion and came to Olmedo's bedroom.

clap clap-

He knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered.

Olmedo sleeps so soundly?
When Annan was confused, the maid came over.

"Where's Olmedo?" Annan asked her.

"Master Olmedo is still in the office."

"Now?"

Annan glanced out the window. It was almost two o'clock in the morning and the "City That Never Sleeps" was about to come to an end.

"Master Olmedo has not slept this late for several days," said the maid.

"understood……"

Annan was touched and went back to the second floor.

Meeting the head maid Abby who had just made coffee, Annan took the tray and pushed open the office door.

The office was quiet, with only the rustling sound of the quill falling on the parchment.

"Put it there."

Olmedo said without looking up.

When she didn't get a response, she looked up and found that it was Annan who came in.

"Why don't you rest so late?"

"There are so many things to do... Why, our city lord personally delivered coffee?"

"I just feel sorry for you."

Olmedo's cheeks flushed for a moment and he smiled, "Nothing, just a lot has been going on lately."

"Related to the competition?"

"I guess so. The Or Empire suddenly expressed its support for the Singer Contest. After all, they are the Thirteen Supreme Kings, and many kingdoms and lords will agree."

Even if not, the influence of the Or Empire alone far exceeds that of the commercial street.

"Isn't this bullying the weak?" Annan said angrily.

The Thirteen Great Human Empires are actually snatching a mere champion singer. How disgusting, really disgusting!

"I think this is a good thing," Olmedo said.

"Good news?" "Originally, only those who are interested would watch the game, but now that the Or Empire is personally participating, it will definitely attract a lot of attention. They will watch the Empire's program as well as ours."

"understood."

After all, the continent of Allen is very large, large enough to accommodate several forces that select champions. Your Or Empire finally decided the champion, and my Liberty City also decided the champion.

However, it was not the Empire that kept Olmedo busy until late at night, but the aliens who had fled to Liberty City.

Because of different cognitions, concepts, and habits, they had many conflicts with the people of Liberty City.

Annan's "light forgiveness the first time, normal the second time" only stabilized for a while.

The eldest sister should have been in charge of the city affairs, but Itilia was busier, so Olmedo helped share some of the burden.

Annan thought for a moment and said, "Or, have you heard the story of Pavlov and the dog?"

"Annan, what are you looking at?"

Olmedo made a sound of disgust.

"What?" Annan was stunned.

"what?"

Olmedo was also stunned, and then guessed that what he was thinking was probably not the same as what Annan was thinking: "What is the story of Pavlov and the dog?"

Annan didn't answer, but looked at Olmedo strangely.

"I never thought you were like this, Olmedo."

"Say it!"

Olmedo feigned impatience.

"There was an alchemist named Pavlov who did an experiment on conditioned reflex. He would ring a bell every time before feeding a dog. At first, the dog didn't know the relationship between food and the bell. After repeated training, as long as the bell rang, the dog knew there was food."

"We can also use this method to condition the alien race."

Olmedo asked curiously, "Where did you read this kind of book?"

"I studied hard, okay?"

He just became lazy after becoming the lord.

"What I'm thinking of is updating the Liberty City Code and drafting a new chapter on aliens," Olmedo said.

Although the aliens in Liberty City account for less than one percent of the total population, there will be more and more of them in the future, and it is only a matter of time before additional laws are introduced.

"That's a good idea. We can gather everyone to discuss it after the game."

"Ah."

Olmedo looked at Annan, who wasted several minutes instead of being able to help. He asked, "You came here so late just to bring coffee?"

"I almost forgot. I have good news for you. The virgin fruit and ancient oak seeds have sprouted."

"Good news indeed."

Liberty City’s biggest weakness – the lack of professionals – can be solved.

Annan picked up the top layer of official documents and opened it.

"On the Relationship between the Economy of the Gem Gulf and Maritime Transport"...

Annan tried hard to look inside, but the more he tried, the sleepier he became.

"I am such an unqualified lord."

How could a lord want to sleep when he sees official business...

Seeing Annan's discouragement, Olmedo comforted him in return: "You don't know your greatness."

"Great, me?" Annan pointed at himself.

"What are the lords outside like?" Olmedo recalled. "They treat their subjects as lambs to pay taxes, ignoring their lives, squeezing and demanding, just to squeeze out the last bit of profit, never taking responsibility for their subjects, yet claiming to be their masters."

"But you are different. You treat your people as human beings, guide them to grow, and make the territory cohesive as a whole."

"So I'm so awesome?"

"Otherwise, why would everyone be willing to gather around you, why would people be willing to be loyal to you?" Olmedo chuckled.

"Is it really just because you are a warlock?"

After being flattered by Olmedo for a while, Annan felt at ease to put down his official duties, returned to the tree of the other world, and fell into a deep sleep under the moonlight, the sparkling bay, the quiet city and the lighted windows on the second floor.
