I Became the Progenitor Vampire

Chapter 233: Chapter 234: Done, Ready to Return to Earth for a Big Move (Three-in-One Enhanced)

After arranging everything, Lide waited until nightfall before he returned to Dawn City with the Dwarf and Beastman captives.

Although the crisis faced by Dwarf Valley was not completely resolved, after all, neither the Lion Tribe nor the departing Dwarf King would give up so easily.

Yet, there wouldn’t be any significant danger in the short term.

The Dwarfs wouldn’t be able to seek revenge anytime soon, as it would take a long time for these folks to gather sufficiently powerful reinforcements.

As for the Beastman of the Lion Tribe, with their king captured and their numbers greatly reduced, they would likely be mired in turmoil for a long time.

What they needed to deal with now was not revenge, but ensuring the survival of the Lion Tribe.

According to the rough estimates by the Holy Light Bloodline, out of the tens of thousands of Beastman troops last night, at most only three thousand had escaped.

The remaining seven thousand Beastmen were forever buried in this land.

An exceptional military achievement.

Even if the Beastmen could still muster a large army, the threat level had been reduced by countless degrees.

Moreover, with an 18th level Bone Dragon, a 16th level Bronze One-eyed Giant, and a 16th level Dawn Bat King, these three terrifying giants were enough to handle any major situation.

Dealing with a Beastman Tribe without a king was not too much of a pressure.

More than three hundred Magic Language Bats took flight from dusk and took four trips, transporting the Beastman captives and Dwarfs back to Dawn City by dawn the next day.

When the incessant flow of Beastman captives and Dwarfs arrived in Dawn City, the whole city burst into a frenzy.

The first batch of Beastman captives arrived at 9 PM, when many residents were still awake.

Seeing the Beastmen, dressed in tattered animal skins, strong and tall with menacing tusks, being securely tied and brought down from the Magic Language Bats, every resident wore a barely concealable smile on their face.

Because their great Kachar City Lord had achieved another victory in battle!!

This was a victory belonging to Dawn City and the Holy Light Bloodline and, of course, this divine glory also belonged to them.

Praise the Goddess! Praise the Kachar City Lord!

Beastmen were the quintessential Alien Race, with a vast difference in appearance from humans.

Their tall stature was oppressive, their muscles under the crude gray animal skin outfits were exceptionally strong, bulging prominently,

Four sharp tusks carried a dangerous air, their black eyes shone with ferocity, their faces had pale green skin, and their features were extremely ugly.

Many Beastmen, seeing humans around the square brazenly scrutinizing them, could not contain their anger and bared their teeth while roaring at the residents.

In their eyes, the weak humans had always been seen as food, and just the sight of a powerful Beastman would normally make them tremble with fear.

This had been proven countless times on the borders during battles.

However… when they bared their so-called fierce appearance, what they got in return was the most merciless mockery from the residents of Dawn City.

“Hahaha, is this a Beastman? So ugly!!”

“Do you see his sneer? Doesn’t it look just like the pigs in the breeding farms?”

“Despicable Beastmen, daring to oppose the Holy Light Bloodline, to oppose Dawn City, hmph, you are courting death!”

“These damned Beastmen should be taken to the mines to dig and to till our lands!!”

“Praise to our Excellency, praise the Goddess, victory will always belong to us—belong to the great Dawn City!!”

“….”

Afraid? Impossible, if this were the border, they might be fearful facing these damned Beastmen alone.

But where is this?

This is Dawn City, ruled by the Kachar City Lord, where every resident is blessed by the great Holy Light Bloodline.

As long as the Holy Light Bloodline persists, as long as the Kachar City Lord is here, they have nothing to fear.

Hearing the mocking laughter of the surrounding residents, those originally fierce-looking Beastman suddenly looked bewildered.

At the border, just seeing them, these powerless humans would act like lambs before a wolf, with no will to resist.

But now… even though they were captives, these humans shouldn’t react like this, why??

What these Beastmen didn’t realize was, to the residents, Beastmen were nothing; this city had Undead and One-eyed Giants, legendary creatures way more terrifying than any Beastman.

Having seen so many different creatures daily, and clearly more horrific than Beastmen, what would these worldly and experienced residents need to fear?

If these residents knew what the Beastmen were thinking, they would certainly lift their heads high, scoffing at their ignorance and superficiality.

Compared to the Beastmen who were tied up tightly, the Dwarfs were treated much better.

The Dwarfs did not come as captives.

Of course, this was only on the surface, the only difference between them and the Beastman was the absence of shackles and ropes.

When the Dwarf arrived in the square, his astonishment far exceeded that of the simple-minded Beastman.

Is this really a Vampire city?

Constrained by the formidable military power of the Bloodline, Massi had no choice but to lead his clan to the legendary Vampire castle, and he had braced himself before arriving.

He had thought this place would definitely be a gloomy and terrifying place, but to his surprise, this city turned out to be magnificent, and it was populated with a large number of humans.

What struck him most was the incredibly unbelievable relationship between humans and Vampires.

Since when did humans and their natural enemy, Vampires, get along so harmoniously? By the Forge God, he must be seeing things.

Before Massi could ponder more, the prepared security team started their operation.

The Beastman were taken directly to Dawn Square and then detained in prison,

while the Dwarf, like humans, needed to register their information and receive identification before they could enter Dawn City.

Ten wooden tables had been set up early, and the Bloodline responsible for household registration had already prepared everything, guiding the Dwarves through the registration.

Raymond had become the person in charge of security this time. As a member of the security team loyal to Dawn City, having risen through the ranks by exposing the Lone Wolf gang,

Raymond, with his sharp mind, had now become a platoon leader in the patrol team, managing over a hundred people.

It is worth mentioning that with the approach of Frost Month, Lide had made extensive preparations to plunder more people.

One example being the patrol team, which had evolved into a rigid military organization known as King’s Blade.

King’s Blade would be the second regular army of Dawn City, behind the Bloodline,

Members of King’s Blade, aside from undergoing rigorous military training each day, also had to study cultural knowledge, combat skills, and could receive the most honorable salary—military pay.

King’s Blade was formed based on the patrol team and already had 600 soldiers.

Furthermore, during Lide’s elimination of the Dark Contract and hunting of Grot, the twenty or so Northern Warriors he had captured had been assigned to serve as instructors in King’s Blade.

These Northern Warriors had already begun the strictest training for the soldiers of King’s Blade.

Over these months, under the orders of Betty and Grot, these Northern Warriors had slowly become part of Dawn City; they were no longer the enemies of the past.

In Lide’s plan, the future army of Dawn City would consist of two parts.

The first, without a doubt, was the Bloodline. The Bloodline was the foundation, his core, and the priority for relentless development.

However, because of the Bloodline’s inherent talents, they couldn’t rapidly increase their numbers, only advancing through elites, so additional forces were necessary.

This situation led to the creation of the second military force—armies composed of various races, including One-eyed Giants, Dwarves, Humans, and even Beastmen in the future.

Each race played a different role and had a different impact.

He aimed to build a powerful composite army, though of course, this idea was still quite fanciful.

In this plan, humans played a significant role, not only responsible for maintaining internal security in the city but also accompanying the Bloodline in external combats.

Among these humans, the most outstanding ones would be absorbed by the Bloodline and become members.

His large-scale recruitment of Mage Apprentices within Dawn City was with this intention—to select talents, among which the most outstanding would become noble members of the Holy Light Bloodline.

King’s Blade’s direct leader was Lide, all vice leaders above ten-person squad leaders, these core forces had to swear allegiance to Lide and sign a Soul Contract.

This army was firmly under Lide’s control, with no possibility of betrayal.

The patrol team currently directly belonged to the Security Department, which was a subsidiary under King’s Blade.

Of course, all members of King’s Blade were currently from the patrol team; it was merely that Lide had set up the framework for King’s Blade.

To truly develop this army, it would have to wait until after Frost Month.

For now, this army could not replace the Bloodline; it could only serve to supplement the Bloodline’s forces.

“Every Dwarf line up, register your information truthfully.

After registering, you will be provided with housing and food, each Dwarf will be assigned a job within Dawn City…”

Raymond was loudly maintaining order.

Surrounded by hundreds of armored patrol members, they tightly controlled the area.

Although the Dwarves were somewhat resentful, they had no choice but to comply under the deterrence of several top combatants releasing a powerful aura.

Massi silently watched all this, his expression incredibly strange.

Arriving in the Vampire’s city, the most direct impression it gave him was that it was not the bloodthirsty, brutal Vampire castle of legend, but more like a genuine Human city.

Everything was so discordant, no matter how he looked at it.

Line up, register.

The process was somewhat cumbersome, but Massi still patiently followed the vampire’s instructions.

Because the powerful aura emitted by Grotto, Betty, Emi, and Stanley, all over 15 level in combat strength, forced him to obediently comply.

It felt like a giant dragon was watching him from behind, which was truly terrifying.

After a day and night of laborious work, the dwarves were no longer as spirited, with exhaustion evident in everyone’s eyes. They all wanted to get these matters settled quickly and without causing any trouble.

“Next…”

Watching the dwarf in front of him finish the registration and leave, Massi quietly breathed a sigh of relief, finally it was his turn.

“I am a registry officer of the Holy Light Bloodline. To ensure you answer honestly, I will use the Truth Telling Skill during this procedure.

According to the Dawn City registry management regulations, all newcomers must be recorded in detail. This is for your benefit, as we will match jobs to your abilities.

If your answers are truthful, you will receive free food and accommodations, but if you conceal anything, your treatment will be reduced to the minimum….

There are several regulations in Dawn City that must be adhered to, listen carefully…”

Massi had been to human cities, where he knew people were insatiably greedy.

He initially thought this creature revealing its vampire nature would demand Gold Pucks or other benefits, but surprisingly, the other party didn’t mention such things at all.

Instead, they just asked him a series of tedious questions, as detailed as how his surname was pronounced—whether it was ‘Barbaric Hammer’ or ‘Full Hammer’.

After this episode, his impression of the vampire-ruled city immediately changed.

Although the vampire’s image was terrifying,

their actions were completely by the book, without any of the extortion or blackmail he had imagined.

This rather improved Massi’s view of these vampires.

This city was really different.

After completing the registration, Massi received his own identity proof and housing registration number. They just needed to wait for a group of 30 dwarves to be assembled, and then someone would lead them to their designated dwellings.

The whole procedure felt professional to Massi.

It seemed they had done this countless times before; every step was perfect. They knew exactly what to do and how to do it; they just needed to follow the staff’s directions.

This was completely unlike the cumbersome process in human cities.

And no one was making things difficult for them during this process.

It was incredible. Was this really a vampire’s stronghold??

Massi looked around in bewilderment at the humans discussing fervently, his strange mood shared not just by him, but by all the dwarves.

“Massi?!”

Just after Massi had completed his registration, a voice filled with surprise called out from the crowd.

Massi’s body jolted, he whirled around, his eyes filled with indisguisable joy, “Master Valen!”

The two dwarves, under everyone’s gaze, fiercely embraced each other in a bear hug.

There’s nothing more joyful than meeting an old acquaintance in a foreign land.

“Massi, where is Chief Rabiao?”

After they separated, Valen’s smile faded slightly as he looked around, not seeing the familiar figure, his expression grew a bit strained.

His heart, initially jubilant, instantly grew heavy, a bad feeling arising.

“Why didn’t Chief Rabiao come back with you??”

Massi shook his head, slightly lowering his voice,

“Master Valen, Chief Rabiao is fine. He left Dwarf Valley through the abandoned mine before the vampires arrived.

Now, he might already be on his way to find the Copper Hammer Tribe…”

Hearing this, Valen heaved a huge sigh of relief.

Thank goodness their king was safe; otherwise, the Dwarf Tribe really would’ve declined.

Regaining his composure, he immediately inquired further.

“Was there much damage among our people? And what about those damned beastmen?”

When this topic arose, Massi shook his head, his expression quite subtle.

“Most of our people are okay, and not many warriors have died.

Those beastmen…”

Massi turned his head and glanced at Betty not far away, leaning on a giant sword and chatting with the residents in the square like a girl next door, his tone very peculiar.

“Those damn Beastmen, they were crushed by the Vampires, at least half of them were wiped out!”

Valen’s body shuddered, staring at Massi in disbelief.

“Wiped out by half?? The Lion Tribe possesses tens of thousands of Beastman warriors!!

Their king, that damn Lion-man Warrior, even won a one-on-one combat against Chief Rabiao!!

Such a powerful Beastman King leading the Beastmen, and they were exterminated by the Bloodline??”

At that moment, the image of Lide with a faint smile appeared in Valen’s mind, and right now, he felt that handsome face becoming even more mysterious.

It seemed as if a thick fog enveloped him.

How strong was this Vampire? What kind of power was hidden in this city?!

Valen felt a profound sense of powerlessness at this moment.

Were the Dwarves being targeted by such a powerful entity a good thing or a bad thing?

His eyes were filled with deep confusion; although Lide hadn’t harmed the Dwarves, he couldn’t be sure what the true intentions of this Vampire City Lord were toward the Dwarves.

The Dwarves no longer had the strength to resist such a powerful, mysterious entity.

“Massi, what did the Kachar City Lord tell you when he brought the Dwarves to Dawn City?”

“The Kachar City Lord? Are you referring to that Vampire king?” As Massi looked at Valen and nodded, a hint of unease flashed in his eyes.

“That Vampire said, if he were me, he wouldn’t directly resist the Bloodline but would accumulate strength and wait for Chief Rabiao’s rescue.

Or look for the Bloodline’s weak points within Dawn City rather than risking strangulation by resisting under the watchful eye of the Bone Dragon…”

The Bone Dragon??

This Vampire has enslaved the Bone Dragon??

A complex expression, hard to articulate, crossed Valen’s eyes; he wasn’t particularly surprised by this statement. Given the intelligence of the city’s master, such words were not unexpected.

But the existence of the Bone Dragon in this city was beyond his wildest imagination.

“I understand, Massi, don’t be impulsive inside this city… The Kachar City Lord is far more insightful than we can imagine.

And simultaneously, much harder to deal with…”

Massi, looking at Valen, the most respected member in the Barbarian Hammer Tribe, opened his mouth to say something but eventually closed it defeatedly.

Chief Rabiao, perhaps only you can save the Barbarian Hammer Tribe now.

After all the captured Beastmen and Dwarves had arrived in Dawn City,

the first trace of light appeared in the sky.

Dawn arrived.

Hoo hoo~

As many residents stayed up all night watching excitedly, a figure riding a Magic Language Bat slowly descended.

“Kachar City Lord is back!!”

A single phrase instantly woke the somewhat sleepy residents, and everyone’s eyes heatedly fixed on the figure landing at the center of the square.

It really was the Kachar City Lord!

Castro had been left by Lide in Dwarf Valley to guard the Secret Silver Vein.

He returned with the last batch of war spoils carried by the Magic Language Bat.

As he dismounted the Magic Language Bat, his figure appeared before everyone.

His flawless face impeccably handsome, a mage’s robe adorned with dark patterns accentuated his already tall stature, his every movement as graceful as a noble of a royal lineage enduring for thousands of years.

The master of this city, had returned.

Every move Lide made tugged at everyone’s heart.

Tap tap~

Tap, tap~

Leather boots made a slight sound on the bluestone floor.

When they saw Lide’s face clearly, the residents, who had been heatedly discussing, immediately ceased their noise.

Everyone looked at the owner of the city, the great ruler—the Kachar City Lord, with an indescribable fervor.

“Long live the Kachar City Lord!!”

It was unknown who in the crowd shouted first, after which the whole city erupted in commotion.

“Long live the Kachar City Lord!!”

“Long live the Kachar City Lord!!”

“Long live the Kachar…”

The noise, the cheers, boiled over in the city at the break of dawn’s first light.

The residents, having stayed up all night, showed no signs of fatigue; everyone was immersed in the joy of their wartime victory.

This was a victory for Dawn City, a victory for every resident!!

This was what it meant to win the hearts of the people.

With the dual identities as the Lord of Dawn and the head of the Dawn Sect, Lide was the undisputed master of the city.

His reputation had maxed out in the hearts of the residents.

The surrounding Dwarves looked on with expressions full of awe.

Massi took a deep breath, the huge cheers from the surrounding crowd causing his ears to ring, he turned to look at the silent Valen, his mouth bitter.

“Master Valen, why does this vampire hold such great esteem in this predominantly human city?

Why would humans respect a vampire so greatly??”

This question troubled him like a nightmare; he couldn’t understand it—how could such a thing happen between two races that were sworn enemies??

Vampires coexisting harmoniously with humans seemed like the most fantastical thing he had ever heard.

You are vampires, vampires!!

Valen at that moment looked at Massi’s expression and shook his head with deep sentiment.

“I have also thought about this question.

But I had no answer… but now, having seen this scene, perhaps there is no need to say more.

They have an exceptional king, a king who can easily defeat tens of thousands of Beastmen.”

Massi turned his head to look at the handsome figure surrounded and cheered by thousands of residents, his expression extremely subtle.

He remembered what Lide had told him, if I were you, I would choose to remain lurking, waiting for the opportunity.

This vampire… Massi took a deep breath, his eyes full of complexity… too terrifying.

Lide, with his eyes sparkling, looked at the surrounding residents and smiled slightly at their hopeful looks.

He turned and stepped up to the important platform in Dawn Square.

The speech after the battle was just as crucial as whether the war was won or not.

“My people, I am your City Lord, Kachar.”

The same phrase, heard once compared to a hundred times, felt completely different.

Especially after winning the war.

This simple opening even caused many believers of the Dawn Sect to tear up, their eyes filled with excited and adoring gazes as they looked at that heroic figure.

“As you can see, with the support of all the residents, with your efforts, we, once again, have won the war…”

A single sentence ignited the passions of the residents below.

Cheering and shouting once again filled the city skies, even shattering the thick clouds of the morning.

Lide watched this scene with a smiling face.

Propaganda was the most powerful weapon of thought; on Earth, where there was no magic, no constraints of soul contracts, yet the majority of soldiers’ loyalty to their respective forces and countries was as solid as iron.

This was the power of propaganda.

Lide utilized this tool of propaganda to its extreme in this ideologically and opinionally backward world.

Before each war, the propaganda department would promote the necessity of the war, what gains could be achieved through victory, what losses could be expected in defeat, and what the consequences would be if no action was taken.

The inevitable conclusion was that they had to fight.

After the victory, the propaganda department would select some heroes who performed outstandingly to promote them as national idols.

They would also heavily describe the spoils of war obtained and use some of the less valuable and insignificant ones as welfare for the residents.

At the same time, the propaganda department did not hide the hardships of war at all, solemnly mourning the warriors who were killed or injured, letting everyone know of the Holy Light Bloodline’s struggles and that the armies of Dawn City were fighting for their sake.

After several rounds of such measures, Lide had firmly captivated the hearts of the entire city’s residents.

Even in the future, if anyone dared to slander the Bloodline for waging wars abroad, these residents would be the most steadfast rebutters.

The power of the people is unlimited; they would drown the enemy in a vast ocean of people.

“My people, the Holy Light Bloodline protects you; they are the guardians of Dawn City, and every war we initiate is for the future of Dawn City.

It’s for the future of every resident.

Weakness is the original sin!

If we do not seize more resources to become stronger, then when others invade Dawn City someday, it will be our residents who will suffer.

Do you want to see Dawn City taken over by other forces, our land seized, our wives and children abused, our houses invaded, and our wealth dominated?!”

Lide spoke with a powerful provocative tone.

Instantly, the already enthusiastic atmosphere soared even higher.

“No!!”

“No!!”

“…”

All that they possessed was given by Dawn City; no one wanted to lose it all, so Lide’s words carried an irresistible force.

It went straight to the heart.

“My people, everything the Holy Light Bloodline does is for a better Dawn City.

It’s all to make our lives better.

In the future, I will grant you a safer, better life.

Everything, for Dawn City!!”

The brief speech got the citizens, who had been up all night, boiling again.

With Lide’s reputation, he no longer needed to make a long speech. Stirring the emotions of the residents was enough.

After stepping down from the podium, Lide quietly opened his attribute panel, seeing the Believer section rapidly increasing, a thick smile hung on his lips.

This wave was worthwhile.

——————

——————

——————

The patrol team, in coordination with the various departments of the City Hall, began making arrangements for the dwarfs.

At this time, Master Valen Barbaric Hammer, the dwarf forging master who had half of his restrictions lifted due to his contributions to forging Cortso and Castro weapons, stopped Lide, who was preparing to leave the square, with a somewhat complex sentiment.

However, Valen was stopped by the Bloodline before he could get close.

Lide didn’t mind and waved for the dwarf to come over.

Valen’s equipment and weapons had already been confiscated; they were Level 14, so he couldn’t pose any threat.

Valen’s expression was grave as he looked at the calm Lide standing before him.

Although he had a premonition that this mysterious and powerful being might soon accomplish all he had said,

he hadn’t expected it to happen so quickly; he couldn’t even react.

Most importantly, the incredibly powerful Beastmen, who could suffocate the dwarfs, were directly defeated by the Vampires.

It was beyond imagination.

Lide’s power put a great pressure on Valen when facing him again.

He had long since abandoned his original stoic attitude toward life and death.

Now, Lide held not just his life but the life and death of most of the Dwarf Clan in a mere thought.

Furthermore, the Secret Silver Vein had been discovered by the enemy, and he had no more cards in his hand.

“Respected Kachar City Lord, Valen pays his respects to you.”

Valen, hand on chest, spoke with respectful tone.

Lide keenly sensed the change in Valen’s attitude and said with interest,

“Valen, do you need something from me?”

He had quite a fondness for this dwarf with excellent forging skills.

The City of Dawn was in need of such advanced talents, and Valen’s arrival significantly filled the gap in the city’s need for top-tier weapon forging.

“Lord of Kachar City, I wish to ask, how do you plan to treat the dwarfs?”

After saying this, his gaze firmly fixed on Lide, his expression extremely tense.

For before him stood a mighty being who held the fate of the entire dwarf tribe in his hands, a single word from him could bury all dwarfs.

Lide gave a slight smile, “You tell me, how should I treat you?

Or rather, what value do dwarfs have in the City of Dawn?”

What value do dwarfs have? Beyond combat, of course, it’s mining and forging weapons.

Is there any better craftsman in the world than the dwarfs?

No!

Besides the dwarfs, no one dares proclaim that their weapon and armor crafting skills are the finest in Glory.

A flicker in Valen’s eyes, “Lord of Kachar City, could you possibly allocate a separate area for the dwarfs to live?

We are willing to forge all the weapons and armor you need for the City of Dawn.

Dwarfs working together would be more beneficial for forging, I…”

Lide looked at Valen with a half-smile, directly interrupting him.

“Valen, obviously you have not persuaded me, do not use these ridiculous tricks in front of me.

You once refused to ally with the Bloodline, now, you and the dwarfs no longer have any choice…”

Hearing this, a bitter taste filled Valen’s mouth, and at this moment, he deeply regretted his past decision.

After Lide finished speaking, he patted his shoulder, his tone deep.

“If the dwarf king you follow can one day break through the gates of the City of Dawn, I will allow the dwarfs to leave.”

“But if he cannot, then the dwarfs can only belong to the City of Dawn, not the Barbarian Hammer Tribe.”

“Valen, you are a smart man, I know you understand my meaning.

What I want to tell you additionally is,

this is the City of Dawn, dwarfs will not suffer unfair treatment here.

What I need is a group of dwarf craftsmen who can bring out their value.

If you have the capability to lead a dwarf rebellion, then go ahead, I look forward to seeing the day you leave the City of Dawn.”

Valen, looking into Lide’s profound and wise eyes, shuddered inwardly, and forced himself to speak despite his inner unrest,

“Lord of Kachar City, you will not gain the dwarfs’ loyalty this way!”

Lide gave him a curious look.

“What do I need your loyalty for? I have no interest in subjugating dwarfs.”

After saying this, he waved his hand and turned to leave, leaving Valen standing there with a baffled expression, not knowing how to react.

What do I need your loyalty for?

Why don’t you need our loyalty? Didn’t you bring the dwarfs to the City of Dawn to subjugate them?

At this moment, Valen felt his intelligence was insufficient.

Lide did not care at all, he only needed a group of craftsmen who could help him forge weapons.

Whether the dwarfs are loyal or not was completely irrelevant to him, dwarfs are not human, the Bloodline couldn’t thrive without humans so they devised a sustainable development strategy.

But dwarfs are merely tools, tools to help him forge weapons.

What does it matter to me whether you are loyal or not, just don’t rebel.

As long as the dwarfs continue living and working in the City of Dawn, they are creating wealth for him, and he doesn’t care about these dwarfs’ thoughts.

Valen sought a settlement area for the dwarfs clearly wanting to gather the Barbarian Hammer Tribe together, maintaining the cohesion of the dwarf tribe.

If this request was granted, then he wouldn’t be Lide.

What to do with the dwarfs next, how to mine the secret silver veins, and how to handle the Beastman prisoners, these trifles no longer required Lide’s personal attention.

Dawn City’s City Hall had set up a relatively complete political system, and before he set off with his troops, Harrison had already made contingency plans and strategies for it.

Naturally, the officials of the City Hall would handle these matters.

The dwarves would be completely disbanded and spread out among the residents of Dawn City, taking up jobs in mines, blacksmith shops, and construction departments, among others.

As for the beastmen, these strong, bulky figures would become the best labor force for mining and brick-moving.

The city, which he had personally established, now had enough capacity to deal with these trivial matters, no longer needing him to watch over it like looking after children.

After getting rid of Valen, Harrison, who had already been waiting outside the square, immediately stepped forward.

“Good morning, Clan Leader.”

“Harrison, I’m leaving the following matters in your charge.

The dwarves and beastmen are both significant labor forces; manage them well.

Over the next few days, Stanley, Emi, Groot, and Betty will all be in Dawn City; let them solve any issues that arise.”

Lide gazed at Harrison standing before him, his eyes deep, “The strategy towards the dwarves is different from that towards humans; the dwarves had enjoyed a good life before they became enslaved.

Unlike humans, who live day by day.

In this, wanting the dwarves to quickly integrate into Dawn City, the most crucial aspect will be to focus on the scoring policy.

Make full use of the advantage of the scoring system to integrate the dwarves swiftly into Dawn City.

In this process, one must not allow them to gather on a large scale; the activities of dwarf leaders like Valen, Anakin, and Massi must be restricted.

Dividing and conquering is a crucial step.

Dwarves without a leader are not difficult to deal with, as long as proper methods are found.

During this time, I will be in seclusion to handle some very important matters and will not have time to deal with these issues in the short term.”

Hearing Lide’s words, Harrison nodded and responded.

“As you wish.”

Lide didn’t continue after speaking, and was about to leave immediately when the stunningly beautiful figures of sisters Nilo and Nicole appeared before him.

“Your Highness~”

“Kachar City Lord~”

Lide shook his head with a slightly amused smile; these fellows – like nesting dolls, one after another.

“I will be in seclusion for a while; you all assist Harrison well.

Nilo, although the dwarves and beastmen each have their own Divine to worship, you can try to preach. The strongest power of the Dawn Sect is its inclusivity; be sure to make good use of our advantage.

Nicole, dealing with the dwarves and beastmen is quite challenging; stay close to Harrison to learn and ponder more.”

“Yes, Your Highness,” Nilo nodded, her stunningly beautiful face breaking into a soft smile.

Those pale golden eyes, filled with dignity, gave this girl, dressed in a pure white priest robe, an unspeakably holy aura.

And Nicole blinked her big, lively eyes, a slightly mischievous expression on her intelligent face. “Understood~ Kachar City Lord, I’ll help my sister,

and those little dwarves are actually quite easy to handle; don’t worry~”

Lide looked at the eager expression of the little girl and smiled broadly, ruffling her small head.

“If you do well with this matter, I will reward you when you return,”

“Really?” Nicole’s delicate face lit up with surprise.

“Of course, you can have whatever you want, provided that you satisfy me,”

The little girl patted her yet-to-develop chest, brimming with confidence.

“Just you wait and see; Nicole won’t disappoint you.”

Lide smiled faintly, said no more, and after giving a few more instructions to Nilo, he turned and returned to his manor.

He logged off.

He might stay on Earth for a while this time.

Stanley had reported to him, wanting to use the Undead from the Otherworld to establish a branch of the Dark Contract in the Lost World.

An NPC wanting to establish its own power on Earth.

This wildly imaginative idea had given Lide much inspiration.

Perhaps…
