Who are these people?

Wei Gongzhan looked at these strangely featured people, his eyebrows slightly furrowed. He had never seen them before. How could they appear in Lyuzhou’s netherworld office?

The peculiar appearances of this group also attracted the attention of other citizens, and clearly, the group’s gazes held an odd curiosity. However, when facing the crowd, there was a sense of inexplicable arrogance and indifference in their eyes.

"Yo, Gongzhan, you’re here to join the excitement too?"

Wei Gongzhan shuddered upon hearing the voice and quickly turned around to bow in respect, "My lord..."

"Shh, keep your voice down..." Chen Qing smiled and made a shushing gesture, "Leading the two towards a more secluded spot."

"It’s not good to cause chaos with so many people..."

"Uh... it was my negligence." Wei Gongzhan quickly responded.

Looking at the flustered young man, Chen Qing smiled and then glanced at Little Mink, who was huffily looking at him.

These two have a good relationship...

Only, one wonders if it would still be so good if the truth were to be revealed one day?

The Reincarnators could only be born unto their own kind, which is why Zi Yue and Ali both felt a tinge of indifference towards the little one – they were very clear that the child... was not truly Ali’s in the fullest sense.

"My lord, who are these people?" Wei Gongzhan cautiously asked.

He was not usually one to ask too many questions, but seeing how Little Mink was quite uneasy about these people, he felt the need to inquire.

"Foreigners, no need to bother with them..." Chen Qing chuckled.

The Federation’s technology was more formidable than one could imagine. As soon as he had nodded in agreement, the other party could immediately send people from Jiangnan. Hundreds of spirit bodies, just dispatching them over like that.

And as expected, trying to enter in the form of spirit bodies, they would be directly intercepted by the netherworld office. The way of divine path... truly seemed tailor-made to restrict these Reincarnators. Choosing this path in the first place, he really didn’t make a wrong choice.

The sudden announcement of the Anti-Spirit Festival, apart from making the selection process of the netherworld office livelier, also served to help the so-called Federation understand more about his own side.

Indeed, as per the agreement, during this selection event, the time had come for the Federal Parliament to commence. Through the narratives of these Reincarnators, the Federation would decide whether to invest in the Huazhong project!

---------------------------

At this moment, in the Federation’s meeting room, representatives from various countries, each wearing distinctive headsets, were in contact with their own Reincarnators who had crossed over, evaluating the project’s value...

Representatives from the five major districts of the assembly had nearly all arrived, and the atmosphere turned quite somber because today they would vote on whether to support the Huazhong project in full force.

This time, Huazhong, unlike its previous secrecy, had directly transported people from the other four districts over, reportedly landing them safely within the territories of their collaborators.

"Rose, what’s the situation like?"

"Welsh, what’s the current situation? Is it safe?"

The communicators from each country were now wearing headsets, in touch with their most trusted agents.

"Oh, very good, better than imagined!"

As a female voice rang out, in the middle of the Federal Parliament’s hall, a huge image appeared. The image showed the bustling streets of Lyuzhou at that moment.

Everyone straightened up in surprise at this scene, while the communicative representatives dumbfoundedly set down their headsets.

Wu Xiaoli stood on the podium, smiling at the crowd: "This is our latest technology, which allows us to broadcast some live scenes with the cooperation of certain individuals inside."

Thanks to Chen Qing’s cooperation, who promised an absolutely safe domain, they were able to connect and broadcast the scenes. Of course, the main breakthrough came from the technical experts on the other side.

The main visual in the image was from a white-haired Western woman, undeniably of authentic Ance bloodline – blond hair, blue eyes, and facial features as sculpted as if by an artist’s hand, her gaze holding boundless curiosity as she looked around.

"Wow, this place is so beautiful..." The woman’s voice carried a note of amazement, "This ancient scenery, like a painting from the Huazhong District, and the sweet air—it feels like being enveloped in warm water, it’s just wonderful. If only there weren’t so many of the Yellow Race, it would be flawless. "

"Rose!!"

The color drained from the parliamentarian’s face as he immediately reprimanded, "Watch your words, everyone is looking at you!"

"Oh?" The woman was taken aback and coughed lightly, "Cough... what I mean is, there are too many NPCs... it’s a bit crowded..."

In the five districts, the only Yellow Race area is the Huazhong District, causing all the parliamentarians to frown, the MPs from the North European District looked over cautiously.

Racial discrimination has always been politically incorrect, let alone the current status of Huazhong.

While the North America District is nominally the lead district of the five, everyone knows that when it comes to hard power, Huazhong alone is almost a match for the combined might of three districts.

What’s more, this major project is largely dominated by Huazhong; if they made an issue of this, it could indeed be troublesome.

Fortunately, at this moment, although every MP from the Huazhong District had a deeply furrowed brow, they did not seem to be having a difficult time.

The project presentation did not suffer any setbacks due to the earlier inappropriate comment, as Wu Xiaoli continued to stand in the center, outlining the project’s details.

"Spirit reincarnation, that is the greatest feature of our new project!

" Wu Xiaoli stood in the center of the Parliament, pointing to the white-haired woman she had introduced earlier, "All who traverse this world do so by entering the cycle of reincarnation as spirits.

If, unfortunately, they meet with misfortune or die of old age in that world, they can still be reborn! "

"This means that even ordinary people, as long as the order of this world doesn’t collapse, can continue to reincarnate indefinitely, according to the current intelligence.

Without doing anything, they already have something akin to eternal life, and furthermore, they can perfectly counteract the digital version of Alzheimer’s! "

The entire assembly hall fell silent at this statement, and you could clearly hear the sound of everyone’s breath quickening.

Although they had this intelligence before, hearing it now, they were still extremely excited!

The best project in the West currently is the Wizard from the North America District, and the top wizards within can live up to a thousand years.

However, only a handful of individuals can reach this level, less than ten throughout the entire Western Camp, and most noble wizards typically reach their limit at four or five hundred years old.

And this project allows even an ordinary person to reincarnate indefinitely?

If this were publicized, it’s likely that the nobility would go mad with excitement!

"I have a question," a female MP from the North America District interjected.

"Please, go ahead," Wu Xiaoli said indifferently, looking at the woman. The questioner was named Averill Sari, a parliamentarian from a media background, and Wu Xiaoli had never really liked those Western media figures.

"Based on your information, originally players entering this game, reincarnation was uncontrollable, right? And now, the person you are specially working with... that’s Chen Qing, isn’t it? He has restricted everyone’s freedom to reincarnate?"

Wu Xiaoli frowned as she addressed her: "As we have also mentioned in the intelligence given to you, once players’ reincarnations are left uncontrolled, it is extremely likely to cause chaos.

The previous Huazhong players, without control, made this already dangerous world even more chaotic.

Now, the system provided by Chen Qing is more suitable for the Federation to control. .."

"But this restricts freedom, doesn’t it?" the other party interrupted Wu Xiaoli, "And the control is all in the hands of Chen Qing, whom you spoke of. How can you guarantee he won’t betray us? Or blackmail the Federation using this opportunity?"

"Chen Qing is subject to our disintegration program and is a very safe collaborator; this is something everyone can be assured of..."

"But we don’t have that..." the adversary pressed aggressively, "How does Huazhong assure us of our rights? Couldn’t you use this project to coerce us and finally realize Huazhong’s hegemony?"

"And according to our intelligence, in your system, reincarnation is completely controlled by this so-called Master of the Underworld, meaning that the benefits, family positioning, and resources upon reincarnation are all in your hands. If our people enter, won’t they be completely at your mercy?

To use one of your Huazhong sayings: like ’fish on the chopping block’! "

"Centralized management is better than chaos," Wu Xiaoli stated, looking back at her adversary. "Furthermore, anyone can vie for the position of Master of the Underworld. We have already reached an agreement with Chen Qing that as long as..."

"How do we know you won’t rig the outcome? After all, you..."

The woman interrupted again.

Wu Xiaoli stopped, staring directly at the other woman, who realized that something was off. Her previously unstoppable torrent of words gradually died down, and feeling the intensity of Wu Xiaoli’s gaze, she swallowed hard before asking, "Do you have any objections to my statements?"

"Miss Averill, if I’m not mistaken..." Wu Xiaoli’s voice was filled with icy reprimand, "I know those of you who come from Western journalism like to interrupt others, but in Huazhong, this is considered exceedingly impolite. I’ll say this only once; if you continue to be so disrespectful, you might as well leave now! "

Unintimidated by the words, Averill sneered back, "Are you implying that you want to drive away the North America side?"

"If your behavior is representative of the North America District..." Wu Xiaoli replied coldly, "Then yes, both you and the representatives of the North America District can leave now!"
