MM Racing Chapter 22 Integration, Emperor Yan's Hibernation!
Chapter 22 Integration, Emperor Yan's Hibernation!
Just as the Dragon Kingdom's machinery was operating at full capacity, bringing one future "seed" after another under its control, and using Su Chen's "Heavenly Eye" to efficiently deal with the apocalyptic crisis.
Xiao Fan, who had escaped death, did not remain idle.
The battle at Kunlun Mountain left him severely wounded and, for the first time, instilled in him a deep sense of dread regarding the mysterious "ghost."
However, this misfortune turned into a blessing, allowing him to successfully absorb a portion of the core power of the "Emperor's Flame".
At this moment, his strength is far from returning to its peak in his previous life.
But compared to other reborn individuals who are still exploring their abilities, they are already more than one level stronger.
Deep inside an abandoned underground civil defense project in City A.
It was dark and damp, with a foul smell of rust and mold in the air.
But deep inside the project, in a huge, transformed space, the lights were on and people were bustling about.
Nearly a hundred reborn individuals gathered here; they were both men and women, each with a different expression.
The way everyone looked at the person in the main seat was filled with awe and fervor.
Xiao Fan sat on that simple "throne" made of cement.
He changed into a clean black combat uniform. Although his face was still a little pale, his golden eyes were like burning flames, full of majesty and oppression.
Just a few minutes ago, he used only one move in front of everyone.
With a single move, he reduced a burly man, who was also a reborn individual and had awakened a B-level superpower, to ashes as he attempted to challenge his position.
Not even a bone fragment was left.
That miraculous power completely terrified all the unruly reborn individuals present.
They were either survivors who narrowly escaped the Dragon Kingdom's "cleaner" operation, or ambitious individuals with a rebellious nature who refused to be bound by the Dragon Kingdom.
They were gathered here, but they were a disorganized bunch, and none of them were willing to submit to anyone else.
But now, Xiao Fan used the most direct and violent method to make them understand one thing—who is the boss here.
"Everyone!"
Xiao Fan stood up, his gaze sweeping across the entire room, his voice echoing in the empty underground space.
"I know that many of you harbor illusions about the Dragon Kingdom. You think that when the end of the world comes, as long as you behave, you will be protected."
"But look at how the Dragon Kingdom treats us!"
His voice was highly inflammatory.
"What did they take us for? Guinea pigs! Pawns they could capture and sacrifice at will!"
"That mysterious 'ghost' is like a high and mighty god, watching our every move! All our plans and all our opportunities have been ruthlessly taken away by him!"
"Wang Hu is dead! Zhang Wei has been arrested! Li Ming has also disappeared! Who will be next? You? Or you?"
He pointed at the crowd below the stage and launched into a series of questions, which brought out expressions of fear and anger on many people's faces.
"Going it alone will only lead to death!"
Xiao Fan's voice suddenly rose in pitch.
"We are the reborn! We are the chosen ones!"
"We are the people who should rule this era! Why should we be chased around like rats by the Dragon Kingdom?!"
"I refuse to accept this!"
He slammed his fist on the stone table next to him, and the stone table cracked with a crack!
"To all those who no longer wish to be lackeys of the Chinese nation, to all brothers and sisters who refuse to be manipulated by that 'ghost'!"
"From this day forward, join me! I, Emperor Yan Xiao Fan, will lead you to create a new order that belongs only to us on this wasteland!"
"Here, there is no oppression, no surveillance! Only power and glory!"
"I will lead you to reclaim everything that is rightfully ours! Opportunities! Resources! Women! Status!"
"I will lead you to overthrow the rule of the old world and become the gods of the new world!"
Xiao Fan's speech was full of passion and persuasiveness.
The reborn people in the audience were so excited by his words that their breathing became heavy.
Their fear, resentment, and ambition were completely ignited!
"Long live Emperor Yan!"
"We are willing to follow Emperor Yan!"
"Destroy the Dragon Kingdom! Find that damned 'ghost'!"
A deafening roar of shouts echoed through the underground space.
Looking at the enthusiastic faces below the stage, Xiao Fan's lips curled into a satisfied smile.
He knew that his first step had been successful.
Relying on his past life's management skills and his unique personal charisma, he quickly transformed this disorganized group into a formidable underground force.
Although this force is still very weak.
But a single spark can start a prairie fire.
What he needs to do is go underground and accumulate strength.
Then, by continuously absorbing those reborn individuals who were dissatisfied with the Dragon Kingdom, his power grew larger and larger like a snowball.
When the time is right, he will launch a fatal attack from this dark underground towards the behemoth on the surface!
……
"Project Fire" command center.
Su Chen leaned back leisurely in his chair, sipping tea and watching Xiao Fan's impassioned "founding the nation" speech in the live chat.
[Long live Emperor Yan! Well said!]
[Damn, this is getting heated! I've been wanting to get back at those people from China for ages!]
[City A's underground shelter, Block B-7, right? I'm heading there to join the boss right away!]
Brothers, from now on we are members of the 'Emperor Yan's Palace'! We'll share the good times and the bad!
Seeing these enthusiastic comments, Su Chen was not angry at all; instead, he smiled.
"Let him gather, the more the better."
He casually remarked to Elder Long, who stood beside him with a worried expression.
Old Master Long was puzzled: "Little Su, are we just going to let him grow and expand like this? This is a ticking time bomb!"
"I know." Su Chen put down his teacup, his eyes gleaming with wisdom.
"But they're a disorganized bunch, so they're hard to manage and control."
"Now, he has taken the initiative to unite these unstable factors into a cohesive force. This is a good thing for us."
Su Chen pulled up a map showing the distribution of strange beasts across the country, which was densely covered with red dots.
He pointed to the areas surrounding City A, those darkest areas, which represented the most frequent activity of the strange beasts.
"Elder Long, you see. Our current forces are capable of defending major cities, but they are already struggling to cope with the vast suburbs and wilderness."
"And what does Xiao Fan need if he wants to expand and grow stronger, and recruit more soldiers?"
"Resources! A large number of alien beast cores to enhance the strength of his subordinates."
"Therefore, his next step will inevitably be to take the initiative to wipe out these alien beast lairs that are entrenched around City A."
When Elder Long looked at Su Chen, his eyes lit up, and he instantly understood.
"You mean...we'll have him help us with the work?"
"That's right." Su Chen smiled, a smile like that of a cunning fox:
"Doesn't he want to be a savior, to create his own order? Then let him create it."
"Let him fight to the death with the most ferocious beasts, let him gnaw on the hardest bones."
"In this way, we can not only greatly reduce the pressure on our front lines and decrease the casualties of our soldiers, but also use the alien beasts to continuously deplete their power."
"We just need to observe him from the shadows and occasionally give him some 'surprises' to prevent him from developing too fast and getting out of control."
"Once he has cleared out most of the 'monsters' around him and is severely weakened, we will strike and wipe them all out in one fell swoop."
Su Chen's plan was simple, yet extremely vicious.
This is Yang Conspiracy.
He wanted to make Xiao Fan the most useful, yet unpaid, "free weapon" for the Dragon Kingdom in this apocalyptic war!
After hearing Su Chen's plan, Elder Long remained silent for a long time.
Looking at the young man in front of him, who was only twenty-one years old, he felt a surge of emotion and satisfaction.
Strategic planning leads to victory from afar.
To manipulate the enemy at will.
The nation is fortunate to have such a son of a unicorn!
"Little Su..." Elder Long's voice carried a hint of barely perceptible emotion: "You've thought too much about this Dragon Kingdom."
Su Chen smiled and picked up his teacup again.
"I was just thinking about how to reduce the number of our people who have to sacrifice."
Outside the window, the lights of the underground city shone as brightly as ever.
A brand new game revolving around Xiao Fan, a "working class" worker, has quietly begun.
