Chapter 176 The insider reveals himself, prepare in advance
After returning to Chenyue City, Luo Chen soon received the second batch of orders from the official.
The sales of ordinary people's spots to become mages were extremely hot, even far exceeding Luo Chen and the official's expectations.
Originally, they expected that only those children from aristocratic families who did not have magical talent would choose to buy it.
However, the fact is that it is not just the untalented children of wealthy families who want to buy it. It is especially popular among the business community.
Merchants are often the most insecure group, especially in a world like this with magic.
In this world, the class of ordinary people and the class of magicians are two completely parallel classes.
Even the worst beginner magician, as long as he is willing to do hard labor, will definitely earn much more than most ordinary people.
Similarly, it is difficult for an ordinary person to truly integrate into the magician's circle even if he is very close to the magician.
Ordinary people may not feel this very deeply, but businessmen’s feelings about this circle are often the most obvious.
Merchants with magic and merchants without magic basically do not exist in the same circle.
But now, it only costs tens of millions for one spot, and one can transform from an ordinary person into a mage and cross the circle.
How could businessmen not pursue it fanatically?
Many businessmen would even borrow money from other businessmen just to buy a spot to become a mage.
Therefore, even if the official price was doubled or even tripled, the places were still snapped up within a day.
Not only did the government not lose money, it even made a lot of money from this business.
As a result, Chenyue City on Luo Chen's side naturally became busy and began to receive various guests.
Many guests could not help but marvel after entering Chenyue City and seeing this city run by puppets.
There were even people who wanted to invest in buying land, but they were all rejected by Luo Chen.
As people gradually poured in and out, the name of Chenyue City gradually unveiled a mysterious veil before the eyes of the world...
At the same time, the official second batch of orders was also issued quickly, and the number of places in the second batch was three times that of the first batch.
The number of places available is as high as 3000.
Obviously, the official has tasted the sweetness and started to place orders boldly...
Various resources also began to pour into this emerging city.
After Mu Ningxue returned to Chenyue City, Luo Chen handed over the responsibility of handling tasks as the city lord to Ningxue and simply became a hands-off boss.
However, facts have proved that Luo Chen's choice was not wrong. Mu Ningxue is indeed a perfect management talent.
Under Mu Ningxue's management, Chenyue City's development has become increasingly prosperous!
With Mu Ningxue's help, Luo Chen was freed from government affairs and began to devote himself to researching the last generation of perfect self-cultivation furnace.
Of course, in addition to devoting himself to the work, Luo Chen also did not forget to run back and forth between the Magic City and Chenyue City, trying his best not to neglect any of the beauties.
...............................
Just when Luo Chen filled his schedule again, a phone call suddenly disrupted Luo Chen's plans.
After Luo Chen saw the call from Greece, he guessed that it was from Asharuya, and then he picked up the call.
"If I don't call you, will you forget about me?"
Asharuya on the other end said with some resentment.
"How could that be possible? I'm just a little busy lately. Don't worry, I'll come over to see you after I'm done with this."
"That's pretty much it..."
Asharuya on the other end said with a smile.
"I called you this time to report to you about the Temple Mother. She has followed your plan and wiped out dozens of Black Church branches step by step, with heavy casualties.
Many cardinals have already started internal investigations into who the traitors are, and the results are remarkable!
And she asked me to tell you that Leng Jue is probably going to take action in the Northern Frontier, and this time he is preparing to summon Khufu, the god of the underworld.
...I have sent you the specific plan and personnel list."
"Very good, she did a good job."
"Do you need help with the Parthenon? After all, that is an emperor."
Asharuya hesitated for a while, and finally spoke.
With the support of the Temple Mother and the Temple Master, as a saint, she naturally has complete control over everything in the Parthenon.
If Luo Chen needs it, the Parthenon can also become a help to him.
"No, the emperor is indeed an emperor! If it was another emperor, I might still have to worry about it!
But, unfortunately, He is just an emperor of the undead.
An undead emperor, no matter how powerful he is, is nothing more than a puppet in my hands!"
"Really? I believe you. Remember to be careful. I'll be waiting for you at the Parthenon..."
........................
After chatting with Asharuya for a few words, Luo Chen received detailed information about the Cold Lord faction of the Black Church from Asharuya.
Luo Chen flipped through it casually and nodded affirmatively.
The information was prepared in great detail, including a list of all the Black Church members who participated in the operation and their public identities.
"As expected of the Pope of the Black Church, the information he has is quite detailed."
Luo Chen couldn't help but smile and said.
Next, according to the development of the plot, Luo Chen has to face another Hades - Khufu.
If it were any other emperor, even just a small emperor like the Black Dragon Emperor, Luo Chen would have a headache.
However, if he were facing the Undead Emperor, Khufu, then Luo Chen would be almost certain to win.
What Luo Chen said just now was not exaggeration.
Even the remnant soul of the ancient king had no ability to resist Luo Chen's ability to summon spirits and generals.
Khufu, who was at the same level, naturally had no ability to resist!
He didn't even need to prepare anything. He just had to wait for Leng Jue to lure Khufu to China and then start the war directly.
If Khufu invaded China, there would basically be only one outcome, which was to turn the war of aggression into a war to defend the capital...
Moreover, it was like throwing a meat bun at a dog, the kind that would never come back. Therefore, the larger and stronger Khufu's army became, the more excited Luo Chen became.
However, Luo Chen was not prepared to do nothing.
After all, there are still many people living outside the northern border.
Since Luo Chen already knew the exact time and location of Leng Jue's action, it was impossible for him to be as rampant as in the original novel...
Thinking of this, Luo Chen took out his mobile phone again, then dialed a number and made a call.
After a ring, a deep voice came from the phone.
"Oh, Lord Luo, is there something you want to talk to me about?"
"Grand Speaker, I have some information about the activities of the Black Church. Are you interested?"
