Chapter 34 Awakening of Consciousness: Class Struggle in Blackrock City

The first issue is housing and resource allocation.

Due to the explosive growth in population and the dramatic increase in population density, the inner city of Blackrock City was no longer sufficient to accommodate everyone, and people began to gradually migrate to the outer city.

However, the outer city is a newly expanded area. Whether it's military camps, weapons depots, miscellaneous storage areas, garbage disposal areas, etc., they are all located in the outer city, and the environment is much worse than that of the inner city.

Moreover, the allocation of high-level resources has always been controlled by the highest class in Blackrock City—the Council of Elders, originally founded by the "Dragon," which consists of the elders of the Guiba tribe and the first witnesses of Blackrock City.

Relying on their long-standing seniority in following the "dragon" and their high prestige within the tribe, they unscrupulously enjoyed the preferential treatment of resources.

However, as the overall strength of the tribe has increased, more and more young people have gained great strength, and some have even broken through to become second-tier beings. They are increasingly dissatisfied with the current allocation of resources.

Why should I?!

Why is it that the Flaming Fruit and Marrow Cleansing Pill, which they have to cultivate diligently and spend a lot of time and energy to earn merit, are readily available to those elders and their nephews?

Why should the spiritual fruits and plants that they risked their lives to obtain from a world full of poisonous miasma be given priority to those elders who chat and have fun all day long?

Just because they used to follow Lord 'Dragon'?

Just because of the word "rules" they keep talking about?

With the boosts from the "Civilization Acceleration" and "Survival of Wisdom" attributes, the culture of the Guiba tribe seems to have been put on fast-forward.

Most people in the tribe have realized that the days when everyone was united and there was no distinction between "you" and "me" are over.

When facing the gods, everyone is a collective, a subject of 100% loyalty. But in Blackrock City, they represent different classes, different families, and communities of interest, competing for limited resources.

"Awakening of consciousness? So fast?" Lu Sheng sipped his refined milk, watching the scene with great interest.

As the supreme deity, he naturally wouldn't plan every detail of the small world. He only needs to specify a general direction, and the people of the divine realm will automatically gravitate towards that direction.

As long as the direction is correct, the resource allocation within the small world will develop in the most reasonable way, just like in the real world. Talented people will naturally be able to obtain better resources, climb up step by step, and become true gods who master the laws.

Those with poor talent, or even those who fail to awaken their divine kingdom, will naturally become the eliminated members of society, becoming subordinate gods to others, or becoming logistics gods, having to obediently hand over the resources they have painstakingly harvested at the lowest price.

This is an immutable law of nature!

Therefore, as long as the internal strife among his subjects does not affect the very foundation of the divine kingdom, Lu Sheng will absolutely not intervene.

Thus began the first internal war within the Guiba tribe!

Within the small world.

"What are you doing? This is the council of elders!" A ruddy-faced, richly dressed old man roared in front of the vermilion gate, angrily rebuking the intruder for his rudeness.

"Go to hell with the elders!" A man dressed in coarse linen clothes but with a strong build, his face full of anger, threw a punch and knocked the old man who was speaking to the ground.

Then, with a powerful stomp, he leaped onto the roof in front of hundreds of Blackstone City residents and shattered the neatly arranged plaque on the door with a single kick.

Several elders shouted from below, "Do you know what you're doing? Are you trying to ruin Lord Dragon's legacy?"

"The Council of Elders was founded by Lord Long. Your blasphemy against our ancestors is a crime deserving of death!"

"Disrespectful and ignorant of etiquette! When Lord Yu returns, I will definitely report you and have your legs broken!"

However, the accusations and insults from the elders did not frighten the burly man, and his expression did not even change.

The burly man stomped hard, and the solid wood mansion gate creaked and groaned, with several cracks spreading rapidly like a spider web on the door panel.

"Today, I, Chen Guang, am not doing this for anything else, I just want one thing!"

"Fair! Fair! It's fucking fair!"

Chen Guang raised his arms and shouted, unleashing the aura of a second-tier martial master, which transformed into a thick wave of blood and qi, causing the elders below who were still angrily rebuking him to retreat repeatedly, their faces turning pale.

His kick shattered not only a plaque, but also the authority of the elders' council.

Those who were afraid because of the prestige of the Elders' Council and those who had suffered unfair treatment stood up to support Chen Guang. Among them were many second-level martial artists, and the situation became one-sided.

Only then did they realize that fairness doesn't come from nothing, but is earned little by little with their own hands!

Once the conflict erupted, it spread like a plague throughout Blackrock City. Members of the Elder Council were identified one by one, their residences were seized, their resources were plundered, and they were driven out of the inner city, forced to live only in the outer city.

Many die-hards even died as a result.

In Blackrock City, the Council of Elders was abolished, and a new power was established called the "World Council"!

They still revered Lord Yuzou of Blackrock City, but wanted to redistribute all resources, rewarding those who worked hard and placing those who were capable in the best positions.

Soon after, the expeditionary force returned.

Yu Zou was naturally aware of the situation and immediately stepped forward to negotiate with Chen Guang. In the end, no unexpected events occurred. From now on, strength will be the priority, and the strong will be respected. Only those who are more useful to the development of the clan will be entitled to better resources.

Without Lu Sheng having to intervene, the internal conflicts were resolved by themselves.

But he still turned on his smartwatch and started searching for products tagged with "decomposer" and "junk cleaner".

Although he did not participate in the internal struggles of the Guiba tribe, some problems in Blackrock City had to be addressed, and the enormous waste resulting from the population increase had to be dealt with.

Shortly afterward, a building was locked onto an electronic light screen.

Class C Building - Waste Conversion Pool

Description: Household waste, industrial waste, etc., can be automatically converted into usable bio-fertilizer.

Price: 10 million Faith Points

This amount of money was a drop in the ocean for Lu Sheng at the moment, so he bought ten of them and put them all into Blackstone City.

Fortunately, because it started developing agriculture early on, coupled with the increase in various terms and the subsequent development of animal husbandry, the small world still has a sufficient amount of food even though the population has exceeded 20.

Then, Lu Sheng looked towards the Gray Stone Tribe in the northern part of the world.

Since we can't increase the efficiency of each graystone goblin in crafting weapons, we should focus on increasing the quantity.

Lu Sheng spent 30 million Faith Points to buy 3,000 Graystone Goblins. The [Hundred Crafts Workshop] has enough space to accommodate them even if the number increases three or four times.

As for the stone man's family?

Lu Sheng didn't mind having too many, so he bought 10,000 of them and sent them all to mine and build city walls.

However, the situation is relatively good in terms of weapons, since there is an E-grade refined iron ore vein, but the situation regarding elixirs is much more difficult.

With 200,000 subjects, more than 10,000 of them are sent to the world of poisonous miasma each time. "Rejuvenation Pill" and "Grain-Clearing Pill" are basically necessities, and a lot are consumed each time. In addition, other pills such as "Marrow Cleansing Pill" also need to be refined. Even with Yao Yan and his hundreds of alchemy apprentices, the supply is completely insufficient.

The reason lies in the scarcity of people with spiritual roots.

Without a fire-attribute spiritual root, one cannot generate alchemical fire, naturally resulting in poor talent in alchemy, an inability to quickly master the basics, and an inability to control the details of pill making, leading to an absurdly low success rate.

Since the start of the training program in the Poisonous Miasma World, Lu Sheng has had to spend about ten million faith points every day to maintain the army's consumption of pills.

That's 300 million a month.

If it weren't for the abundant resources in the poisonous miasma world, he would have really lost money.

"Sigh." After thinking for a long time, Lu Sheng couldn't come up with any solution, so he turned on his smartwatch and opened a group chat.

Group name: Temple of the Gods.

This was the group chat that Zhao Mingjian created when he asked them to explore the Poisonous Miasma World together. After the exploration was completed, it was not disbanded and became their own private chat group.

Lu Sheng was about to ask Lin He, since the people were also human and followed the same path of cultivation, he should also encounter similar problems.

There might be a solution.
