Chapter 568: Chapter 294: Duorong Division, The Military Patriarch_2
Fang Yu: ???
What the hell… Why does this feel so much like the LGBT community on Blue Star?
Kong Huaao coughed lightly and continued:
“The South Island Continent advocates heavy industry, agriculture, and commerce, leaning more towards the civilian class.”
Fang Yu nodded slightly.
Since entering this world, he had descended at Qiyun Port on the South Island Continent. During the process of delivering goods, he often encountered people renting a small island for planting or breeding. The commercial atmosphere was also very strong, along with industrial representatives such as military factories and the Alchemist Association.
Kong Huaao’s words were exactly what Fang Yu had seen and felt.
“As for the Central Continent, it is…” Kong Huaao took a deep breath and said in a low voice, “the elite class!”
“The elite class?”
Fang Yu raised an eyebrow and murmured.
“Yes, or rather… a bloodline theory, surname theory!”
“In the Central Continent, the distribution of resources is not based on labor, nor on exploration, but purely tilted towards higher status surnames. There is a lineage considered the most noble, called the Deep Sea Bloodline.”
“Those with the Deep Sea Bloodline are naturally water-type Transcendents, able to easily harness oceanic forces.”
“So in the Central Continent, it’s all about elite theory. The taxes for the lower-class people can be as high as 40%, and if a particular resource is acquired, they have to hand over 80% as a rare resource tax.”
“Meanwhile, those of high bloodlines are exempt from taxes and even receive subsidies for training and learning… For instance, reaching the Warship Level Captain can earn a subsidy of thousands of Gold Coins.”
“Thousands of Gold Coins?!”
Fang Yu was dumbfounded.
When I became a Warship Level Captain, I barely managed to earn that amount with outstanding Extraordinary Ship strength. What is this?
People naturally breaking through receive these subsidies.
Fang Yu’s eyes suddenly turned red.
He felt envious and wanted to rob the rich to give to the poor!
“With such an unfair distribution model, doesn’t anyone have objections?”
Fang Yu couldn’t help but frown and asked.
“There are, but it’s useless because…”
“Every president of the Duorong Federation has come from the Deep Sea Bloodline family. This bloodline’s extreme compatibility with the Sea Ship System makes it…”
“Even more prone to producing peak Captains!”
Kong Huaao sighed lightly and spoke softly.
“A continuous stream of top talents emerges from this bloodline family, so there’s an expression in the Central Continent.”
“The same resources given to ordinary people can only create a Warship Level Captain, but given to a member of the bloodline family, it can create a Warship Level Captain.”
“Ordinary people consuming resources is a waste, a crime.”
“Only when the elite consume resources, is it the most efficient use of resources.”
Fang Yu was stunned: “Isn’t this just brainwashing ordinary people?”
“Brainwashing? What’s that?”
Kong Huaao was puzzled.
“Oh, nothing. Mr. Kong, please continue. I understand the general structure, so which faction does the guy behind us belong to?”
“Being able to cultivate you and me without a bloodline, the gentleman behind us naturally supports heavy industry, agriculture, and commerce, standing on the side of the civilian class.”
“Moreover…”
Kong Huaao smiled slightly and said mysteriously in a low voice: “Think about it, the Ocean Scripture is only three hundred pages, held by the Ocean Court and various Sea Countries. The ability to use it as a reward suggests that the gentleman’s status and identity can’t be simple?”
“Come on, Mr. Kong, are you still keeping secrets? Just tell me who the old man is!”
“Mr. Kong? How many times have I told you, you must call me Mr. Kong! I am your superior!”
“Fine, Mr. Kong! Can you tell me now?”
Kong Huaao glanced at Fang Yu, then slowly spoke: “I won’t say the gentleman’s name, but you just need to know that the gentleman is the top figure in the military forces of the South Island Continent, wielding significant influence even in politics.”
“The top figure?”
Fang Yu gasped and looked at Kong Huaao with some surprise.
The person who looked favorably upon him turned out to be the top figure in the military of the South Island Continent?
No wonder Kong Huaao was so confident, believing that unless Lanyun Sea Country wanted to tear the face, they would never take action against the two of them.
It also explains why they could directly present him with the Ocean Scripture.
“Why is the gentleman…training us?”
Fang Yu paused, then asked the question that had been on his mind.
Already the top military figure, they could directly select senior officers for succession. Why choose to cultivate talent from the lower ranks?
Honestly, although he and Kong Huaao had significant potential, to someone of the gentleman’s level, they probably were just average.
After hearing Fang Yu’s words, Kong Huaao showed a hint of sorrow on his face, sighed, and said softly:
“Because the gentleman doesn’t have much time left…”
“He’s very old now.”
“Currently, in the Duorong Federation, many are keeping an eye on him, waiting for the day he passes away.”
“His influence was just too great back in the day. As long as the gentleman lives, some people can’t achieve their goals.”
Kong Huaao sneered, his eyes filled with cold intent.
“Goals? What goals?”
Fang Yu was puzzled.
“Different people, different goals.”
Kong Huaao glanced at Fang Yu, then shook his head and said: “The Central Continent wants to promote the bloodline system, holding bloodline as supreme, even turning the federation into a nation.”
“West Cyan Continent wants to break away from the Duorong Federation and form its own Alien nation.”
“And even other Sea Countries, some are watching the gentleman, preparing to settle some matters with his successors.”
“The gentleman realized that after his death, there might be great turmoil, so he made some preparations in advance.”
“For instance, in the Central Continent, the gentleman’s aim is to break the superstition about bloodlines and establish a society of equality.”
“So, he made an agreement with the Central Continent to bring the non-bloodline beings he cultivated to the Central Continent to defeat bloodline beings of the same level in front of everyone!”
Upon hearing this, Fang Yu couldn’t help but interject: “Wait, this non-bloodline being wouldn’t be…”
“Yes, it’s us…”
Fang Yu was stunned, realizing the purpose behind his cultivation was like this.
“Of course, it’s not just this purpose. Even within the South Island Continent, there are people keeping an eye on the gentleman, with some within his own ranks ready to act…including the person who suddenly appointed Meng Biao as Commander, hiding within our internal factions.”
Kong Huaao said in a low voice.
After hearing Kong Huaao’s words, Fang Yu’s expression shifted slightly, then he nodded gently.
Indeed… the sudden appointment of Meng Biao felt strange. When Kong Huaao followed the clues, the trail was severed.
This incident made Kong Huaao suspicious of the Duorong military and Lanyun Sea Country, suspecting elements of the Peacekeeping Council quietly hiding within.
Now, hearing Kong Huaao’s explanation, Fang Yu understood much more about the inner workings of the Duorong Federation.
“Fang Yu!”
At that moment, Kong Huaao’s expression turned serious as he looked at Fang Yu with an unusually solemn gaze:
“Actually, you were recommended to the gentleman by me.”
Fang Yu was surprised, then he heard Kong Huaao say: “Because I felt you were different from other Outer Realm Captains.”
“Other Outer Realm Captains only treat this world as some kind of experience and have never truly integrated into this world.”
“I would never trust such people in the slightest.”
“But I feel like you’ve already considered yourself a part of this world, so I recommended you to the gentleman.”
“In the future…”
Kong Huaao slowly said: “If there comes a day when the gentleman needs someone to act for him, I won’t force you to do so, but…I need you to remember the gentleman’s kindness and not be ungrateful.”
“Otherwise, even if it costs me my life, I will see you eradicated!”
Kong Huaao’s eyes were as sharp as swords, staring intensely at Fang Yu.
Upon hearing this, Fang Yu was momentarily stunned, then he smiled, shook his head, and was about to speak.
But just at that moment, footsteps sounded from outside the door, interrupting what Fang Yu was about to say.
After a moment, the door was pushed open, and a figure in Lanyun military attire walked in from outside…
