"Is it worth launching such a massive project just for a mere guess?"
Gu Ran felt a little hesitant.
Ah|356. Activate Dragon Gate City! Bait! Eliminate Jun Sheng Martial Arts Hall! 4k Not:
Longmen City is a mobile city built by the first president of Lanxin University using the keel of an ark.
The core of the city is the "Ark Core," which was initially designed to accommodate only a few hundred thousand people.
In fact, Longmen City should be considered a product of the experiment of the first president of Lanxin University. The purpose of building mobile cities was to expand the living space of mankind and enable mankind to live in areas prone to natural disasters.
However, the experiment was abandoned halfway through because of his "disappearance," and Longmen City was hidden underground in advance, the location of which was only known to each successive president of Lanxin University.
A tiny "Ark Core" flew out of Gu Ran's pocket and headed towards the center of Longmen City.
That place is the core control hub of Lungmen City, and also the location where the "Ark Core" is housed.
The foundation of Lungmen City was originally the skeleton of the Ark. Only after the "Ark Core" was placed was Lungmen City considered to have become complete.
The once silent Dragon Gate City seemed to awaken like a sleeping giant, and the entire mobile city came to life.
That's right, it's "movement".
All the lighting fixtures were turned on, and the entire Longmen City instantly became dazzling and colorful.
Many devices suddenly emerged from beneath the city's base, and huge axles began to spin with a loud clang.
What's most eye-catching is the dazzling beam of light in the center of the city, which is impossible to look away from.
"This mobile city has been dormant for so long, yet it still functions so smoothly; perhaps..."
Gu Ran looked thoughtful.
“I can use this mobile city to do other things... A mobile city that represents a new direction for human development should be able to influence many aspects.”
Because of his connection with the "Ark Core," Gu Ran could clearly sense his level of control over Longmen City.
From the switch of every streetlamp to the main power engine of the entire city, everything, big or small, that needs to be connected to energy is completely under his control.
Returning to the "core of the Ark," it also reveals a different kind of brilliance.
In order to power Dragon Gate City, the "Ark Core" frantically absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy.
The massive amount of spiritual energy was transformed into energy that could power various devices in Azure Dragon City through the "Ark Core".
"The 'Ark Technology' of the previous civilization was truly incredible. With the current concentration of spiritual energy in the world, each 'Ark Core' represents a city that will never lack energy."
Gu Ran suddenly became curious about the upper limit of this "Ark Core" and how many people it could support.
Upon returning to Canglong City, Gu Ran immediately summoned Guan Chaoyang for questioning.
He used his telekinetic powers to investigate and found that Jun Sheng Martial Arts Academy was still intact and had not been shut down.
"Why hasn't the Jun Sheng Martial Arts Academy been dealt with yet?" Gu Ran stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the masses of Canglong City.
Guan Chao bowed his head respectfully and quickly replied after hearing Gu Ran's question: "Our people have investigated almost everything. Jun Sheng Martial Arts Academy is indeed trafficking people from the slums. They are not doing it in a secretive way, but there are a few suspicious points about their trading partners."
"Our initial findings indicated that the Jun Sheng Martial Arts Academy sold talented children from the slums to New Testament City as slaves, but we did not find any slave traders from New Testament City."
"That's one of the suspicious points. Another strange thing is that there seems to be a very hidden place inside the Jun Sheng Martial Arts Hall where children kidnapped from the slums are being held. Logically speaking, this is not an important matter that would warrant too much attention, but our people have been unable to find this place for a long time."
Unlike other major cities, Canglong City nominally grants the people in the slums the right to a peaceful life, and since slavery is prohibited, selling people to other major cities as slaves is definitely a violation of the ban.
However, even if this ban is violated, there is no guarantee that punishment will be imposed.
First, we need to determine who violated the ban.
If it's just an "ordinary person" with limited strength who happens to encounter a "big shot" who likes to "meddle," then the offender will certainly be severely punished.
However, if the person who violates the ban is a martial arts dojo with two martial arts masters, and no "big shot" wants to "meddle," then those in the know will generally turn a blind eye.
No one wants to provoke such an enemy, and even if they wanted to carry it out seriously, who would do it was another problem.
Who can punish a martial arts dojo that has two martial arts grandmasters?
Unless the ruling center intervenes, but in the past, the ruling center would never have bothered with such "trivial matters".
So in the end, a situation arose where many people knew that Jun Sheng Martial Arts Academy was violating the ban, but no one dared to do anything about it, no one could do anything about it, and no one bothered to do anything about it.
In other words, Gu Ran decided to change the current situation in the slums, and happened to run into the people from Jun Sheng Martial Arts Academy, so he targeted Jun Sheng Martial Arts Academy.
“My patience is limited, and I don’t want to waste too much time on this kind of thing.”
Gu Ran's voice was calm and unhurried, seemingly without any emotion, but Guan Chaoyang was drenched in sweat.
In his experience, Gu Ran was a very cunning and ruthless man. Even if he spoke in a seemingly innocuous way, if he revealed even the slightest dissatisfaction with him, he might already be considering whether to kill him.
Guan Chaoyang, without even wiping the sweat from his temples, immediately said, "Yes, Your Excellency, I will immediately organize manpower to eliminate the Jun Sheng Martial Arts Hall."
“I need to document the process so I can see the whole picture, not just hear the result of ‘removing’.”
Gu Ran had actually used his mental power to investigate the external information about Jun Sheng Martial Arts Academy quite thoroughly, which was similar to the information reported by Guan Chaoyang. What he was missing now was the information about the secrets.
"Yes, Your Excellency, I'll take care of it right away!"
When he saw that Gu Ran neither objected nor spoke again, Guan Chaoyang knew it was time for him to step down.
Gu Ran actually knew that Jun Sheng Martial Arts Hall was not so easy for Guan Chaoyang to deal with, because Guan Chaoyang himself was only an A-level ability user and his strength was not strong. In the past, the only people he could command were those below this level.
Even though he has been entrusted with important responsibilities, his strength has not improved, and he will still be looked down upon by martial arts masters and S-class superhumans.
Therefore, this can be considered a test for Guan Chaoyang by Gu Ran, to see how he would deal with Jun Sheng Martial Arts Hall, which has two martial arts grandmasters, under such circumstances.
Although he could easily destroy the Jun Sheng Martial Arts Academy with a flick of his finger if he were to do it himself, that would be too easy and unnecessary. It would be better to use that opportunity to test his newly recruited subordinates.
He will not be able to handle similar matters personally in the future, so it is essential to train subordinates who can handle such matters.
Moreover, there is another very important point.
It's impossible for him to become the ruler of Canglong City without anyone opposing him.
The reason there haven't been any opponents yet is simply because of his past achievements and reputation, and also because there hasn't been enough time to organize a coalition.
What he's doing now is waiting for those influential people who oppose him to come forward on their own.
Junsheng Martial Arts Academy might be a good bait.
Those who play politics love to use the tactic of "pulling up a radish and bringing out the mud," starting with a small person or a minor event, then expanding it to implicate their enemies and bring them down.
Although Gu Ran had never been a politician before, he was very familiar with similar methods and easily learned to apply them.
After handing the task over to Guan Chaoyang, Gu Ran used her telekinesis to keep an eye on him.
Guan Chaoyang was indeed very capable. Perhaps knowing his own weakness, he did not organize the manpower himself, but went to Lie Fen first.
As the head of the martial arts department, Lie Fen has far more resources than Guan Chaoyang. The powerful individuals who infiltrated the Junsheng Martial Arts Hall to investigate were also invited by Lie Fen.
Guan Chaoyang made full use of his power to allocate space props to show that he was more trusted by Gu Ran, while Lie Fen, as a "person awaiting punishment" who dared to oppose the ruling official (before being caught by Gu Ran) (a label put on him by Guan Chaoyang, which Gu Ran did not care about at all), should actively redeem himself.
Otherwise, if the great ruler finds out that you not only opposed him before, but still oppose him now, and that you dare to go easy on the ruler's goals, you're doomed!
After this series of attacks, Lie Fen was not completely subservient to Guan Chaoyang, but he was indeed frightened and felt that he should make a good impression. Therefore, he not only fully agreed to Guan Chaoyang's request to send strong people, but also prepared to personally lead a team to handle this matter.
He was confident he could handle the Jun Sheng Martial Arts Academy.
He was raised by two martial arts masters who condensed their martial arts golden cores by consuming pure star stones; he could handle them all by himself.
However, just to be on the safe side, he invited his old friend to go to Junsheng Martial Arts Hall with him.
Jun Sheng Martial Arts Academy seemed to know that its situation was not good, so it kept its doors tightly closed and did not communicate with the outside world.
The entire martial arts hall was quiet.
"That's a bit strange."
Guan Chaoyang said.
Lie Fen said casually, "They must have discovered our infiltration of the martial arts hall before, which made them wary. But in the face of absolute strength, no amount of caution or preparation is of any use."
He felt a pang of sympathy after saying this.
He himself is a living example.
Faced with Gu Ran's absolute strength, he could only kneel down and submit; any preparations were utterly useless.
However, what he experienced could soon be applied to others.
Thinking of this, Lie Fen smiled.
It's incredibly interesting to make others feel the same pain as you do.
boom!
The door to Junsheng Martial Arts Hall was kicked open by Lie Fen.
Since Gu Ran has already ordered the destruction of Jun Sheng Martial Arts Hall, this martial arts hall is definitely not going to last long, so he doesn't need to be polite anymore.
In the past, he would have had to be very polite to Jun Sheng Martial Arts Academy.
Although he is stronger than the two martial arts masters of Jun Sheng Martial Arts Academy, he has to show the other martial arts a thing or two.
If others knew that Lie Fen was someone who disrespected other martial arts schools, then he certainly wouldn't last long as the head of the martial arts department.
But that's no longer necessary.
Gu Ran became the ruler of Canglong City, and he relied on Gu Ran to continue serving as the Minister of Martial Arts, so all he needed to do from now on was to please Gu Ran.
