There was no big discrepancy between how things went and Sui Xiong’s estimation.
The rulers of the main planes were very dissatisfied with this document issued by the Void Mask, but they were only “dissatisfied”.
In fact, no one condemned that.
Not even one, including the Church of the God of Aristocracy.
It was probably the credit of Javier, Sui Xiong thought.
The guy, Javier, had been likely to tell others the words he had said at that time with some additional trimmings. Then the hearers exaggerated them a bit more, and spread out.
At that time, Sui Xiong had already said the words with murderous expressions. After being exaggerated for several times, the words, as assumed, might had been processed like this. “Somewhere there was a person named Dragon. – Somewhere there was a dragon. – Somewhere there was an evil dragon, very dangerous. – Somewhere there was an evil dragon, burning, killing and pillaging, committing all kinds of evil crimes. – Somewhere there was an evil dragon that had just kidnapped a princess recently, and had killed the knights who had tried to fight against it.”
Anyway, Sui Xiong believed that the kings and the big aristocrats would not have such guts to stand out and spoke up when facing such danger.
As for the God of Aristocracy, Sui Xiong felt a little confused. This God was supposed to issue a declaration, criticizing his own practice as a reverse action, a reversal of the history and a self-denial to the people… Blah, blah, blah. For this, Sui Xiong had been ready to debate with him. In this period of time, he had tried to list all kinds of debate methods and sociological materials read on the Internet in his previous life, regardless of whether they were useful or not. Then he had examined and studied them carefully to prepare for this battle.
In the end, everything he had done became idle work. The God performed nothing.
It made Sui Xiong feel like punching with his full strength but hit nothing. It was really uncomfortable.
However, in any case, the less trouble, the better. It was absolutely a good thing that the God of Aristocracy didn’t bother him.
Compared with the calmness in the top class, Sui Xiong’s documents created an uproar in the grassroots class. Many adventurers who had been persecuted by the aristocracy set out for the Four Towns in the Northwest. Most of them were wealthy enough to live a peaceful life in any place. However, because of their bitter experience in the past, they had an innate feeling of insecurity about living under the aristocratic rule. They naturally thought of moving at this moment when they heard that a country which was not ruled by aristocrats had been built.
Most of them just came and had a check of the situations first. A few of them, who were bachelors, simply sold their belongings and moved there directly with a bag of luggage. Anyway, once they were fed, no one in their families would be hungry.
This situation was not beyond the expectations of the Church of the Void Mask, so those apartment buildings that had been empty for a long time were finally put into use.
When the Kingdom of Eagle had been in those hard days, Sui Xiong and Leon had thought that they might need to relocate the refugees, which had been on a large scale. Therefore, Sui Xiong had taken the time to build a lot of apartment buildings in the outer side of the Void Mask Land, which had been prepared for the refugees to live. However, how the things had gone was beyond everyone’s estimation. After a fierce battle, the Kingdom of Eagle had lived through it successfully. The estimated refugee flood hadn’t happened, so the apartment buildings had been empty there. Although some people had moved in gradually over the past few years, the occupancy rate was still very low on the whole. If the real estate was on the earth and the occupancy rate after the construction was as low as this, most investors would climb to the roof and jumped down…
Fortunately, relying on magic and sufficient personnel, Sui Xiong didn’t need to take loans from the bank for the construction of these buildings, or worry about the maintenance costs. Therefore, although these buildings had been empty for so many years, he was not under pressure at all.
In fact, these buildings had never been totally empty. Over the years, the Land had put a lot of furniture into them. The apartments refined a lot, gradually from the original “roughcast ones” which could only be used to shelter, into “almost fully furnished ones” which people could move in directly with luggage.
As for the person who created these styles and the decoration designs which were completely different from the designs of this world, the chief designer waved his tentacles, declaring that he knew nothing about that, and his fingers just got itchy occasionally…
“This house is really strange… But after a closer look, it seems to be very suitable for living as well… What is the price?”
“(A certain number)”.
“That’s not expensive! I thought that the house here would be very expensive! ”
“We are implementing a household registration system here. Only when you register and live permanently can you buy a house.”
