When Ben left the underground laboratory, it was already the morning of the second day. It was said to be morning, but in the belly of the mountain it was impossible to tell. However, when an ordinary old car drove out from the garage next to a house in the outskirts of the city, there was a faint golden sunlight that shone onto the car, causing it to leave a long shadow on the ground.

There was no sun in the middle of the mountain. Even in the wilderness, the sky that was shrouded in radiation clouds all year round would not be able to see even the slightest bit of sunlight. Now, the sky and the sun above Asgard are derived from holographic projection plates that cover the entire mountainside. They were pieced together without a gap, controlled by the central intelligence system, and simulated into the four seasons of the year, spring, summer, autumn, winter, and night.

Undoubtedly, in the new era of the world, this is a very wasteful facility. Thousands of holographic projections and the energy consumed by Marquis of All Sky's work were a waste of resources. If he was in Eternal Night City, which was ruled by the Dark Council, he wouldn't be able to see such a scene. Yongye City had seven nuclear power stations, and it worked all day long as well. However, the electricity it produced was used to supply the military development and biochemical research needs of Yongye City.

However, as he watched the sun rise above the horizon, he thought to himself, What I did was right!

With a huge amount of energy and resources, Asgard created a magnificent dream for the people who lived in it. It was originally unable to reconstruct an old era, but was able to let a portion of people live in beautiful dreams, making them temporarily forget the cruelty of the wilderness. Though he could have imagined that his old friend, Oglock, would have scorned the idea. As for Yours Truly, he was well aware that in this era, such an action was an extremely wasteful one.

However, the whole of life is not just for survival. Sometimes, people also need to have dreams. Asgard was the dream of all those who lived in this city, and in order to protect it in its new age, they would exert a cohesive force beyond the imagination of the Dark Council.

So all along, Ben had never felt like he had done anything wrong!

The car pulled out of the camouflaged exit from the underground base. There were at least a thousand such exits at the edge of the city. Through the control of the central intelligence system, the outlet can move within a certain distance under the motion of the hydraulic machine to achieve the purpose of concealment. This time it could be a garage, and the next exit might be in the factory dormitory. Changes were randomly assigned by the intellectual brain. There were over ten thousand combinations, and they were all different every day. It was not an easy thing to see through this layer of concealment.

Along the outskirts of the city, cars were speeding at forty kilometers an hour. It was not fast enough for Ben to leisurely gaze at the scenery outside the car. The driver, who had followed Ben for many years, naturally knew his habits.

Through the window, Ben could see slaves and workers working. Their work in Asgaritri was no easier than in other cities in the wilderness, but here, even the lowest slaves had room for advancement. As long as he worked hard, he would get something out of it. This was Ben's starting point in developing the Asgard regime. Asgard is not just a dreamy city. It is a city where hope can be found.

After passing through most of the suburbs, they drove along the main road towards the center of the city. At seven in the morning, pedestrians began to appear on the streets. As more and more people rushed out onto the streets, the entire city seemed to wake up from its slumber and became more and more lively.

By the time Ben returned to his office at the highest level of the Twelve Sovereigns' Hall, it was already 7: 30. This was the time when Ben started his office, as he did every day, and the time he got to the office was no more than five seconds. Over the years, this precise habit had become a terrible thing.

At 8: 03, Ben received a message. It was a message from the Ministry of Finance that it had paid four million dollars, and when Ben saw it, he gave a knowing smile.

The loan of four million dollars was to be made to zero out of Ben's own private funds, not from Asgard's budget. For this purpose, zero barely had to pay any extra interest, which was a little bit of Ben's favor.

At this moment, the phone beside the table rang. After Ben answered, his secretary, Julie, said in a magnetic voice, ”Sir, your son, Mr. Tyre, requests to meet with you.”

”Let him in.” Ben said without thinking.

The War God Tyre, along with Valkyrie and the other brothers, were orphans Ben had found in the wilderness with great potential. They were not related by blood, but the hard times had bound them together. Ben didn't know what their original names had been. They didn't even have names. But that didn't matter. When they came to Asgard, Ben had named them after the gods, hoping that they would prop up the sky of Asgard like the legendary gods.

Needless to say, these five children hadn't disappointed him. Of all these, Tyre and Loki were Ben's favorite.
