Death… And Me Chapter 895 - Spreading

Chapter 895 - Spreading

Another event took place during this time as well. Freedom Sect had installed a few antennas in the cities in Tasman Country. Of course, there were a few more antennas installed between the Freedom Sect and the cities as well. After all, the antennas had to be in range of each other. Even if the signal could bend due to Spiritual Energy, the antennas still had a range limit on how far they could spread the signals.

Now that Freedom Sect was able to ma.s.s-produce Spiritual Smartphones, they gave a few thousand of them to the Zasfins. It wasn't even close to the amount being distributed in Wringan Continent. Nevertheless, that was a huge help for the Zasfins themselves. That's because those Spiritual Smartphones didn't need to be used to talk with the humans in Wringan only. The city lords and other elders in high positions in those Zasfin cities could talk to each other as well. They didn't need to use expensive Thoughts Transmission Talismans and could simply call the other side straight away.

Because of that, the cities that accepted to have antennas built in their territories began to gain an advantage in negotiations. Many things could be resolved very quickly with simple calls, instead of having to go all the way back to their cities and then return once more.

As one could imagine, the other half of the cities who wanted to simply see how those antennas would fare in the Zasfin territories immediately contacted the Freedom Sect. They simply couldn't wait anymore and asked for their cities to receive some antennas and Spiritual Smartphones.

However, it was then that Rean changed the terms, telling them, "You were the guys who didn't want it before. Now we have several times the number of cities in our Wringan Continent waiting in the queue. I'm sorry, but we won't be able to install the antennas in your cities anytime soon. Let me check here...we have a vacancy in our installation schedule three years and two months from now. Well, we're all cultivators, so such little time doesn't matter to us, right?"

"What?!" One elder of a clan from a city called Yistrik was taken aback after that. However, he didn't give up so easily. "Can't you do something about that? We can't wait that long at all!"

"Well..." Rean stopped for a moment before continuing, "We can put you ahead in the queue, but there will be a price." Sure enough, the key moment arrived.

The elder obviously didn't like the idea very much. However, the communication system of the Freedom Sect was just too important at the moment. "Depending on the price, we don't mind paying it. However, it can't be anything absurd. If the price is above the amount of income we would have during this time while waiting, then we won't accept it."

Rean laughed in response after that, saying, "Hahaha! But of course! In fact, I have an idea. How about having our Freedom Sect receive 10% of the city's income for the next three years? It'll be a very small value every month, and you will definitely benefit a lot more." Rean's idea was very obvious. Once the communication system was introduced in the elder's city, their income should increase quite a lot. 10% of the city's actual income was definitely not as much as it would be after they obtained the antennas and Spiritual Smartphones.

The elder obviously knew why Rean proposed that deal. "Alright, then we have a deal. Though, you have to do the installation within a month at most." Nevertheless, the elder could only accept the offer. He was afraid that if he tried to bargain, Rean would give up on the idea.

The same thing happened with many other cities in Tasman Country. In fact, it also happened in Wringan. For Freedom Communications LTD, that was extra income on top of the monthly income they were already getting for the use of their system.

Because of that, a certain type of profession began to appear in Freedom Sect, administration. The sect's businesses were expanding too fast, so they needed qualified people to take care of it. Suana, the one who was in charge of most administrative issues in the sect, obviously more than welcomed the addition of this new type of cla.s.s in the school.

Another good thing was that the sect's old disciples were mostly highly talented humans with Blue Color Talents and above. That also reflected their ability to learn complicated things, so many of them showed quite some promise. As for why so many got interested in it, that's because the sect was being very generous with Spirit Stones and Sect Points to those who took such positions in the sect's businesses.

Everything was going very well in the Freedom Sect until the tenth month after the war. However, it was around this time that the higher-ups of the Zasfin continents began to take notice of them.

"Communication System?"

"Long-distance communication with almost no cost? Is that possible?"

"How does it work?"

"Send someone to check those Spiritual Smartphones and antennas."

"We need to find out how they work."

"Send our best members. Our Formation Master Guild must get our hands on the method of how this system is created."

That was all for nothing, though. The Formation Master Guild even sent their Heaven High and Peak-level Formation Masters to check Rean's communication system. Unfortunately, they simply couldn't understand how the Circuitry Formations and their runes worked.

"I recognize quite a few of the formation runes being used. However, just how is this thing even working?"

"Why are you asking me? The problem is that there are runes we've never even seen before!"

"Runes? Hahaha! These things are completely different from what we have seen so far. Can you even tell whether they are runes or not? I definitely can't!"

"This isn't working. Even with the samples right in front of us, we can't understand anything without the methods used to build these...errr...antennas...and controlling formations."

Eventually, after much discussion and testing, the Formation Masters of the Formation Guild reached a conclusion. "Send someone to investigate.. We need to find the Formation Masters responsible for the creation of these things."
