391 Autonomous Zone! (2/2)
That increment satisfied him, making him feel as if his talent was beyond describable. If that wasn't the case, he wouldn't have already reached late-stage Foundation Establishment realm while others in the same batch as him were still in the mid-stage Foundation Establishment realm at most…
I cannot be arrogant! A glow flashed across Wang Baole's eyes as he hurriedly reminded himself. With that self-reminder, he couldn't help but grow even more satisfied with himself.
Just like that, days passed. When Wang Baole finished a few cycles of his cultivation, he realized that the three appointed mayors had still not arrived. He didn't need to monitor the construction of the city either. At the same time, the donkey seemed to have gone missing during this period, its whereabouts unknown.
Based on Wang Baole's sense, he felt that the donkey seemed to be very healthy, and therefore, didn't care much about it. Instead, he used the time to continually upgrade his Dharmic Artifacts.
He had many Dharmic Artifacts, which made the upgrading process extremely long. It was also in this process of refinement that Wang Baole grew more familiar and gained a deeper understanding of his Dharmic Artifacts.
In his free time, he also began to play out the Dark Corpse Face Art in his head. In this manner, days passed, and soon, half a month had gone by.
By this time, Chen Mu and the other two had still not arrived. That made Wang Baole frown, and he thought about calling Lin Tianhao to ask about it after he emerged from seclusion.
Listening to Wang Baole's tone, which indicated his displeasure, Lin Tianhao laughed bitterly and hesitated for a moment before deciding to tell the truth.
”City Lord, according to the information I have received from Martian City, Chen Mu and the other two people have long arrived on Mars. However, after their arrival, they remained in the Martian City, paying visits to the Governor, Deputy Governor, as well as the people in charge of the different departments… I heard that they are still not done with their visits even now…” Lin Tianhao looked at Wang Baole and spoke softly.
Hearing those words, Wang Baole slowly narrowed his eyes. He was extremely annoyed, thinking that the three fellas were trying to send an obvious and clear message for purposely not visiting him after visiting so many others.
However, they aren't foolish people. Why are they making it so obvious… This was something that Wang Baole couldn't understand. After Lin Tianhao left, he was still pondering this question.
However, without having to think for too long, Wang Baole immediately got the answer he was looking for on the second day as the voice transmission notice from the Martian Colony Governor arrived.
”City Lord Wang, Chen Mu, Wen Huai, and Fang Jing will report for duty at Divine Armament New City in the next few days. It has already been approved by the Federation that the three zones that they will be stationed at will be overseen by the Federation directly, and be approved as an autonomous zone!”
”Huh?” After receiving the voice transmission, a cold glow flashed across Wang Baole's eyes. He looked increasingly solemn and serious as he lowered his head to look at the voice transmission ring.
”Governor, the Federation has gone overboard with the handling of this matter, don't you think? This is my city, and they are still going autonomous in my territory?”
”Even though it's autonomous, it is, after all, still under your charge.” The Governor was unhappy about this matter, but it was a decision made by the Federation, and she didn't want to participate in the battle between the factions.
Wang Baole's breathing quickened slightly. He knew very well that he would just be a figurehead. He wanted to fight for his rights, but the Martian Colony Governor sighed once again, emphasizing that these were the orders of the Federation.
However, she eventually told Wang Baole that she would definitely not let matters rest if the three of them acted out of order!
Once they break the rules, everything will be too late. After all, they aren't Li Yi… Wang Baole thought about this but didn't verbalize it. After calming down and accepting the news, a look of ruthlessness appeared on his face as the Martian Colony Governor hung up the voice transmission.
Those three rascals. You're so capable, huh? I've silently agreed for you to have a piece of the pie, and you're still not satisfied? Now you want autonomy too?
Sure, just you wait! A cold look flashed across Wang Baole's eyes.
