From Terra to Terra, the Star Emperor's Holiday

Nian swung her dragon tail, but Si Ye still completed the simulation. He stretched out his hand to block Nian's ferocious movements, while wrapping around her tail that she wanted to attack by surprise.

This was called playing, but in fact it was more like flirting and the two of them were almost used to it. Si Ye never concealed his desire for Nian's body. Nian had a carefree personality and Si Ye was grateful for solving the Sui family's problem, so Nian had no resistance. The only barrier between them was the woman's reserve and shyness.

"Everyone loves beauty. The Cricket Demon Fragments are not enough for me to eat."

Si Ye dodged Nian's claws, said something with a chuckle, and then became serious again.

"But it may take some time. Our original plan was to wait in Kazdel for the mercenaries to bring back news from Ursus before heading to Yan Country to deal with the Year Beast. But now we may need to add Casimir to our itinerary."

The Casimir Knight Competition is held every three years. If Si Ye misses this opportunity, he will have to wait another three years if he wants to intervene in Casimir through the excuse of the Knight Competition, so the opportunity must be seized.

"It's great that you're willing to help. We've waited for thousands of years, so another year or two won't make a difference."

Nian expressed her understanding. She had also seen the changes in Kazdel and the Sarkaz. If Si Ye wanted to rule the entire Terra continent, disputes would be inevitable. Although Nian was tired of war, if the final result was like the Sarkaz's current rule, which was visibly getting better, Nian would be the first to express her full support.

As for the problem of the Year Beast, it has been so many years. According to the giant beast's concept of time, a few years are just a blink of an eye.

"But Sister Shu's situation might be more pressing because she's involved with evil spirits. If she wants to take advantage of my sisters, you better be careful."

"Well, I heard you have a very beautiful sister..."

Nian's tail broke free from Si Ye's entanglement and hit him in the face.

"Hey, boss, you really are taking advantage of the situation."

Chapter 27 Margaret Linguang

The area of ​​mobile plots in Kazdel is limited. In order to accommodate more refugees, temporary settlements built around Kazdel are being built in full swing.

The shortage of manpower has also led to the fact that construction safety management can only exist in a "what-if" state. The things built with the building modules provided by Siye are of quality assurance, but the temporary platforms or scaffolding built by the Sarkaz to use these building modules are not necessarily of such quality.

CRACK!!!

There was a crisp sound of metal cracking, and the already fragile support suddenly collapsed to one side. The Sarkaz worker who was carrying materials under the support subconsciously covered his face with his hands.

call! ! !

The collapsed steel pipes and plates fell to the ground with clanging sounds. The Sarkaz worker who covered his face with his hands did not feel any of the damage and slowly withdrew his hands.

Lin Guang took a bow stance and raised her shield. The golden Originium technique spread on her shield, turning into a shield to block the collapsing building materials.

She wore a simple cloth patch to show her identity. The black cloth was dotted with stars and towers. This was the one that had recently been established and started to become active in Kazdel.

Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals.

"Bohan! Pay attention when you're working! Go take a break, you little brat! I'll do it!"

A rough voice came from the side, and the Sarkaz with pale beard but muscular body walked quickly towards the frightened young Sarkaz worker. His tone was stern, but more of it was concern.

"Also, thank you for your help, otherwise this brat would have to stay in bed for a few days."

The tall Sarkaz expressed his sincere gratitude, but the oppressive feeling and the smell of blood that he inadvertently revealed made Lin Guang's smile stiffen.

The other party was at least a battle-hardened mercenary, an elite among the elite in any country, but in Kazdel he was just a bricklayer.

Lin Guang tried to calm his breathing, which had been disordered by the other party's momentum. "No need to thank me, I just did what I could."

"Hey, that's not right. Kazdel is short of people right now. His Majesty the Demon King is merciful and has given everyone time to build their own houses. If that brat gets hurt, we, the roughnecks, can't understand those architectural blueprints. If we waste time, we'll all be left without a place to live."

Although he had a terrifying aura, this Sarkaz behaved more like an ordinary uncle, brushing off the dust on his body with some distress.

"You're an employee of Rhodes Island Pharmaceuticals, right? I heard that the mineral sickness inhibitor distributed in the city was developed by your company."

"Yes, that's right." Lin Guang glanced at the patch on his shoulder and nodded.

Compared to Shining's superb medical skills, Lin Guang only knew a little bit of first aid techniques for external injuries, so Si Ye arranged Lin Guang to the Rhodes Island Defense Department.

Because Rhodes Island was docked in Kazdel, the Royal Guard took on 90% of the defense work, which left Lin Guang with nothing to do. For some unknown reason, he began to wander around Kazdel and help others.

The vitality displayed by Kazdel now exceeded Lin Guang's imagination. Even in the most difficult and tiring mine, Lin Guang could see some smiles on the faces of those Sarkaz. Oh, those criminals with shackles and charges of embezzlement of assets looked like Sima.

Lin Guang had also come into contact with the infected people of Casimir and had seen the workers in the wild mines, but most of those people had expressions of hatred and pain on their faces, but no smiles.

This overly strong contrast made Lin Guang fall into deep thought.

Is it because of working hours?

Although they had only been in Kazdel for a short time, the Sarkaz worked from day to night without fail, a full 12 hours a day, which was similar to the working hours of some group employees in the Chamber of Commerce.

Is that because of the reward?

It is said that food is now provided free of charge in Kazdel. As long as the Sarkaz who have completed their identity registration work, they can get enough food. The reward for work is a contribution that can be used to exchange for houses and mineral disease medicine.

This is indeed far beyond the factories and companies in Casimir. Those factories and companies will only try their best to deduct workers' overtime pay or subsidies. Even those glamorous competitive knights will have a large amount of income deducted for violating some sponsorship agreements.

Even Lin Guang herself was framed as an infected person and expelled and forced to leave Casimir because she refused to go along with the Commercial Federation and participated in the knight competition as an independent knight to win the championship.

So, the problem actually lies with the trade unions?

The more Lin Guang thought about it, the more solemn her expression became. She always felt that she seemed to have found the reason why Casimir was becoming more and more abnormal.

"It's good that you can think of the problems of the Chamber of Commerce within your limited knowledge."

The sudden voice pulled Lin Guang out of her thoughts. Si Ye appeared beside her at some point, staring at her with eyes filled with purple light, as if he could see directly into her heart.

"Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to read your emotions. It was just a subconscious reaction to seeing Miss Lin Guang standing here alone and the emotions surging in her."

"Lord Si Ye."

Lin Guang came back to his senses and quickly bowed.

As for having his emotions read by Si Ye, Terra had a wide variety of Originium skills, including some that involved mind-reading. Although Lin Guang felt offended, Si Ye had already expressed his apology, so he couldn't say anything.

Pointing to the bustling settlement construction site before him, Si Ye inquired about Lin Guang's feelings: "No need to use the word 'adult', just call me Si Ye, just like I call you Margaret. How do you feel about Kazdel now?"

"Um, very energetic. I've never seen such kind Sarkaz. The infected and non-infected working together in harmony. It looks beautiful."

Although it was unclear what role Si Ye played in the changes in Kazdel, Margaret could not bring herself to flatter him and could only speak the truth.

"Do you think the residents of Casimir could also enjoy this kind of treatment?"

Margaret opened her mouth, then shook her head. "No, the Commercial Federation wouldn't give workers this kind of treatment. Infected people are discriminated against in Casimir."

"What else?" Si Ye asked.

"..."

Margaret's upright golden eyes revealed a hint of confusion. She only thought about the changes and disadvantages that the Chamber of Commerce had brought to Casimir, as well as the difficult situation of the infected in Casimir, but other than that, she had no other ideas.

This is actually a matter of the darkest part being the darkest. Just like in the original plot, even though Margaret was expelled by Casimir, Casimir's people still did not deprive her of her identity as a knight of glory. This was firstly because of her own personal charm, and another reason was because of the influence held by the Linguang family itself.

The predecessor of the Commercial Federation was to handle the miscellaneous attendants for the noble knights of the knight families. However, in history, Casimir was first pinned to the ground and kicked by the Nightmare Khan, which led to the decline of the Pegasus royal family. Later, he was pinned down and hammered by Ursus. Although there were heroic units like Lin Guang's grandfather Cyril who turned the tide, the overall decline of the knights was still inevitable.

The retainers who once managed the knights' industrial affairs rose to prominence and brought the wind of capitalism to Casimir. When the knights found that the retainers were out of control, they chose to use their family influence to stand up for the Commercial Association to easily gain more benefits.

Therefore, because Margaret herself was in the knight class, she only saw the Commercial Federation that was pushed to the surface, and naturally ignored the large and small knight families in Casimir.

Dangdang~

Si Ye knocked on the shield in Lin Guang's hand. The emblem of the Lin Guang family on it had become blurred due to long-term lack of maintenance.

“Not every family is Lin Guang.”

Si Ye's words were like a bolt of thunder in Lin Guang's heart. The Lin Guang family could stick to its original intentions in the tide of the gradual commercialization of knight competition, but what about other families?

It goes without saying that if all the knight families could really stick to their original intentions, the so-called knight competition would never have become the sensational variety show it is today. The influence of the knight families combined with the financial resources of the Business Federation have gradually created the deformed knight competition today, which is like the creation of idols.

Margaret had thought about change. She wanted to gain a say and became a competitive knight, but the greedy knight family and the business association would not allow a troublemaker to interfere with their business, so she was slandered as an infected person and was expelled.

In fact, with the influence of the Linguang family, it is possible to stop this persecution and expulsion, but Grandfather Cyril just chose to remain silent. Now think about it, maybe it was because she wanted to touch the cake of too many people, and being expelled became a kind of protection.

"grandfather…"

Lin Guang, who had figured out many things, looked at Si Ye who was giving candies to the Sarkaz children and quickly walked aside.

Chapter 28: Casimir Strategy

"You told me this, what do you want to do?"

Margaret only needed Si Ye's few words to figure out the crux of the whole Casimir situation, and she also naturally understood that Si Ye was definitely not telling her these things just for casual chatting.

"Here, it's all given to you, go and have fun."

Si Ye threw all the candies in his hand to the children around him, waved his hand to disperse them, turned his head to look at Margaret who had a serious expression, and smiled.

"Don't be so serious. I just want to ask you, the eldest daughter of the Linguang family, if you want to make Casimir a better person."

Si Ye spread his arms, and the midday sun shone on him, giving him a golden hue.

"I am a kind-hearted person and cannot bear to see anyone suffering on this land. Therefore, I intend to bring everyone under my wing and let them live a good life. The price is nothing more than their insignificant loyalty to me."

This land has produced powerful monarchs before. In the distant past, there were the Calendar King Luke Sargus and the Nightmare Khan. In the recent past, there was the ambitious Witch King Herhunzoren. But no one had ever been like Si Ye, who said he wanted to conquer the entire Terra continent.

"...You're so humorous... I'm just an infected person expelled by Casimir. There's no point in you telling me this."

From Si Ye's words, she could feel that he was serious, which made Margaret a little overwhelmed. After all, he started discussing with her about changing Casimir's world, which made her feel absurd as if she had been chosen by some reality show prank.

"Let me put it another way. I heard that the Knight Tournament in Casimir is about to begin again. I'm planning to join in the fun and need a tour guide."

Si Ye changed his words.

Margaret's expression was so wonderful. Si Ye's perfunctory treatment, like coaxing a child, made her a little angry, but considering that they were still in Si Ye's territory and her companions also needed Si Ye's protection, Margaret still tried hard to control her emotions.

"Thank you for sheltering us. If it's just a tour guide, I'm still willing to serve as one."

Although Margaret's tone was still as clear and beautiful, Si Ye could clearly hear the alienation and coldness in her words. She might be planning to repay Si Ye for his kindness in protecting them and then decisively leave Rhode Island Pharmaceuticals.

"It's time to change shifts. Please allow me to take my leave first."

Margaret obviously had no intention of continuing to communicate with Si Ye and quickly left the settlement.

"Your solicitation was too straightforward and appears to have failed."

The Sarkaz who was moving bricks not far away suddenly stopped what he was doing. His body surged a few times like flowing liquid, and the Transformer Lord appeared next to Si Ye.

"No, as long as she is willing to accompany me to Casimir, I have already won."

Si Ye shook his head. It would be strange if an upright knight like Margaret could be convinced by Si Ye in just a few words. Even when he talked about these things with Theresa before, it was because the other party could sense Si Ye's emotions, and with the doctor's testimony, he was barely convinced.

Therefore, Si Ye did not expect Margaret to be persuaded by him here from the beginning. On the contrary, as long as he returned to Casimir and witnessed Kazdel's current vitality, any flaw in Casimir would become a sharp weapon to persuade Margaret. This is the most effective way to deal with such an upright person.
