205: Outrageous? That makes sense!

The video of the press conference spread widely on the domestic internet, its popularity not much lower than the video of the Undead Blood Knight instantly killing the S-Class Secret Realm Dungeon boss; they were neck and neck.

【Damn Eagle Faction, like a bandit, always coveting other people's things!】

【Who says it isn't? It's fortunate that our Star Alliance's overall combat strength is now comparable to the entire Hunter Alliance. Otherwise, it wouldn't just be talk at a press conference; they'd probably come directly with aircraft carriers and fleets to snatch people!】

【Isn't the Great Xia official going to make a statement? What if the Undead Monarch is really attracted by the words 'national power' and joins the Eagle Faction? Don't forget, some people in the comments section, before the apocalypse, how many elites cultivated by the state were lured away by the Eagle Faction with sugar-coated bullets!】

【Hehe, do you think those elites still want to stay in the Eagle Faction and keep his green card? Besides, what kind of elite can be lured away by sugar-coated bullets? Just trash! The real elites are silently building this country; you just can't see it, or it hasn't been pushed to your short video homepage.】

【Sugar-coated bullets? Are you overestimating the Eagle Faction's strength? As long as the Undead Monarch wants to, is there any country in this world that can stop him? Why share power with others?】

【Thanks to the Undead Monarch, our Great Xia has finally raised its head high in front of the whole world!】

...

Chen Ming's prestige was unconsciously elevated higher and higher.

He himself didn't pay much attention to this.

At this moment, he was enjoying five-star gourmet food with Qin Hongyue, which had been stored in the endless storage space beforehand for permanent preservation.

Ever since Qin Hongyue tasted the food from Blue Star once, she had been thinking about it.

Chen Ming came out of the bathroom and saw her waiting at the door.

Although she was an Empress, she couldn't hide her thoughts in front of him, or rather, she never thought of hiding them at all.

Chen Ming saw through it but didn't say anything, taking the initiative to invite her to dinner.

Qin Hongyue was also not at all polite and readily agreed.

"How is it? Does it suit your taste?" Chen Ming asked.

"Hmm! As delicious as ever." Qin Hongyue nodded heavily, experiencing the charm of industrial-grade.

Although profound mystical arts could also extract the essence of cooking ingredients for use, most people with such ability would usually choose to use it for alchemy.

The return from refining a single pill was far, far greater than that of seasonings; describing it as crushing is not an exaggeration.

Chen Ming smiled faintly, no longer disturbing Qin Hongyue's enjoyment of the food. He reached out and picked up the remote control on the table, turned on the TV, and wanted to see if there was any news.

As soon as the TV screen lit up, he heard the words "Eagle Faction."

"According to the footage exposed by private drones in Salt Lake City, we can see that currently, over ten thousand citizens have gathered in the main street area of Salt Lake City to protest, demanding that the military release refugees, return all the rewards fished out, and guarantee human rights..."

The host reported articulately, broadcasting the video materials that were bravely transmitted and exposed by residents living in Salt Lake City, Eagle Faction.

Despite a night passing, the Eagle Faction official still hasn't come forward regarding the Salt Lake City incident to make any statement sufficient to quell public anger.

The Salt Lake City official even resorted to violent suppression. Although no guns were fired at the protesting citizens, riot batons were used liberally.

The unprepared citizens were quickly dispersed when faced with tear gas and the suppression of a large number of riot personnel.

Among the crowd, there were not a few people with guns, but they were very clear that once they opened fire, the other side would not sit idly by, and a large-scale gun battle would inevitably erupt.

How could the weapons and equipment of ordinary people be compared with those of the Special Ops Soldiers?

They were not stupid.

And this farce finally ended with the sudden intrusion of a corpse tide.

There is a conspiracy theory that the Salt Lake City official deliberately lured the corpse tide to make the citizens evacuate and reduce trouble and conflict.

However, it has always been just word-of-mouth and no actual evidence has been exposed.

"These people are really ugly enough," Chen Ming shook his head and sighed.

It's common for the strong to wield knives at the weak, and the weak to wield knives at the even weaker.

What must be admitted is that the Salt Lake City official's practice of plundering refugees' fishing rights has indeed greatly enhanced the overall combat strength of the Salt Lake City Special Ops Soldiers when facing corpse tides and various monsters.

Otherwise, those more than ten thousand people would not have had the courage to run to the streets to protest and demonstrate.

In contrast, a circle of cities around Salt Lake City, not a few have fallen. There is strength, but it cannot be twisted into a single rope and is extremely scattered.

Looking back at the Eagle Faction's past peculiar and absurd operations, one after another, wholesale.

Chen Ming always felt that the Salt Lake City official's approach would soon spread and be imitated by various cities and states.

When more people imitate it, the largest official force will acquiesce, or even directly legally recognize the legality and compliance of this behavior through explicit laws.

If this kind of thing happens in the Eagle Faction, Chen Ming not only doesn't find it exaggerated, but rather quite reasonable.

It would be surprising if they didn't do that.

After eating and drinking, he put down his bowls and chopsticks.

With a wave of his hand, Chen Ming put the kitchen waste into a separately allocated space specifically for storing garbage.

"Master, if there's nothing else, Red Moon will retire first." Qin Hongyue stood up, deciding to continue cultivating on the rooftop, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

The feeling of being able to occupy the global spiritual energy alone made her enjoy it.

"Wait," Chen Ming called out to Qin Hongyue.

"Master, what are your instructions?" Qin Hongyue stopped and asked.

Chen Ming didn't rush to answer. He opened his system backpack and found the divine-level cultivation technique he had fished out earlier, which he hadn't carefully studied and confirmed, and whose name he didn't even know.

Like weapons, armor, and magic treasures, the levels of cultivation techniques, from low to high, are also divided into several major levels: Yellow, Profound, Earth, Heaven, Saint, and Saint.

Each major level is further divided into four types: Low-grade, Mid-grade, High-grade, and Top-grade.

And the one Chen Ming chose at this moment and took out from his system backpack, a cultivation technique named 'Heavenly Demon Overlord Body Art', was a Top-grade Divine level!

Chen Ming thought, 'Even as an Emperor-level powerhouse, a Human Empress, it's a max-level cultivation technique after all. She shouldn't be completely unfazed and have no inner fluctuations, right?'

But on second thought, maybe this is good too?

The less Qin Hongyue feels, doesn't it prove that she is knowledgeable and has deep reserves?

As her Master, he can enjoy more protection instead.

The main point is that he will never lose, either he gains, or he gains a lot.

Chen Ming likes this kind of life very much and is 100% satisfied.

For others, it is the apocalypse, but for him, it is undoubtedly a prosperous age, a truly prosperous age!

"I have a cultivation technique here, you take it and cultivate." Chen Ming took out the Heavenly Demon Overlord Body Art, acting as if he didn't care, and threw it to Qin Hongyue.

Qin Hongyue caught it steadily with both hands.

"Thank you, Master..."

Her words stopped abruptly after seeing the name and grade of the cultivation technique in her hands.
