Chapter 603: Witness the Speed of Our Infrastructure Madness
All the officials present nodded in agreement. They spent very little time in the game, and most of them only had a basic understanding of the starting village. Many hadn't even heard of "Forest City."
Seeing everyone's interest, Chairman Hu nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I'll give you a detailed introduction."
Forest City is the second-largest city in the Golden Sparrow Empire. In the first expansion, Empress Ailijie, along with the legendary peak power Xifan, led a massive battle here against the rebel faction, nearly destroying the entire city.
Chairman Hu then provided a detailed account of Forest City's current situation.
After the great battle, Forest City rapidly declined. Not only did nearly half the population die, but the elemental disturbances and energy residues caused by the high-level powers took years to clear. This rendered the city unsuitable for ordinary residents, leading to a massive exodus of people.
A year ago, the population of Forest City hit its lowest point, dropping to less than one-twentieth of its pre-battle population.
However, things improved last year. The energy residues were completely cleared, and the population gradually returned.
But there's still a significant gap compared to before the battle, with a lot of empty houses and idle land in the city.
Chairman Hu concluded, "I just entered the game and formally signed an agreement with Empress Ailijie to transform Forest City into a player hub city.
Forest City was once the second-largest city in the Golden Sparrow Empire, with unparalleled geographical and transportation advantages. Most importantly, there's a lot of vacant land.
So, I think we should set our headquarters here. What do you think?"
After hearing Chairman Hu's explanation, the officials unanimously agreed that Forest City was indeed an excellent choice.
Currently, the four most prosperous cities in the Golden Sparrow Empire are Golden Sparrow City, Aurelian City, Pearl City, and Su Yu's territory, Apex City.
If these four cities were connected with Forest City, they would easily form the shape of a person, with Forest City being the central intersection point.
Without a doubt, this city will enter a fast development track, making it very suitable to establish our headquarters here.
"Since I've explained everything, let's vote," Chairman Hu said seriously. "Those who agree with Forest City, please raise your hands. Those who disagree or abstain don't need to raise their hands. If you have other opinions, you can feedback to Xue Wenli after the meeting."
Brush, brush, brush.
Over 90% of the officials raised their hands in agreement. The remaining 10% had changing expressions, seemingly with other thoughts.
Seeing the majority in agreement, Chairman Hu smiled and said, "It's settled, then. We'll show the game's original residents the speed of our infrastructure madness!"
"Ha ha!" The officials all chuckled in agreement.
China was already renowned for its rapid and efficient infrastructure construction, and now they could finally apply this talent in the game.
At this moment, Commissar Zhang reminded, "Chairman Hu, besides our real-world department's relocation, we need to ensure the proper settlement of our top scientists in the game. After all, they need more time than us."
The top scientists of the United Government were among the hardest-working people in the world.
The technology of the Skrull planet was several centuries ahead of Earth, with a complex psychic operation system intertwined. Coupled with the completely incomprehensible Skrull language, this placed a significant learning burden on the scientists.
Here is the rewritten chapter with non-English characters replaced with their English equivalents or transliterations:
Over the past four months, scientists have been working around the clock, dedicating all their energy to advancing technology, except for eating and sleeping.
However, they still haven't fully grasped controlled nuclear fusion, antigravity technology, and battery load technology.
By entering the game, scientists gain 12 times the normal time, allowing them to bring real-world problems into the game for contemplation and then return with solutions.
This change in time flow is highly advantageous for the scientists, and it must be utilized effectively.
Hearing Zachary Chang's words, Olivia Wong immediately responded, "Rest assured, Comrade Zachary. I've already sent people to contact the scientists and will settle them in the Newbie Village to continue their research, providing them with all necessary logistical support."
"That's good," Zachary Chang felt reassured.
"Then let's conclude the meeting here," Julia Jiang, the council leader, concluded, "After we return, we will immediately start our work. By tonight, everyone except those who haven't left the Newbie Village must report to Forest City!"
"Understood!"
"Good, Council Leader!"
The officials below responded in unison.
But someone suddenly thought of something—right now, they were all dressed in suits or military uniforms.
Once they entered the game, they would all be "honestly dressed," either in tattered leather armor or rags like beggars.
The scene would be quite amusing!
The scene shifted back to Su Yu inside the game.
After the game time successfully reversed, Bella used the excuse of being "tired," and the three of them and the cat were kicked out of the Newbie Village without even a dinner.
However, Su Yu and the others didn't mind.
Alyssa and Tina, one on each side, hugged Su Yu, beaming with joy.
With the time flow reversed, Su Yu now had plenty of time to stay with them, instead of not seeing anyone all day long.
Su Yu was looking at a sky-blue magic book, feeling delighted.
This sky-blue magic book was given to him by Bella before he left. It contained the water and time magic spells passed down by Bella and was one of the rewards from the last mission.
With this magic book, Su Yu could delve deeper into water magic and explore the space magic he had never studied before.
Now that he had more game time, he could dedicate more time to researching these spells and enhancing his combat abilities, rather than spending all his time on advancing his realm.
Back in the palace, it was already 10 AM on the second day of game time. The kings and dukes of the Western Continent had been waiting in the grand hall for a day.
However, Alyssa didn't care about them.
Standing in the air above the Golden Finch Palace, Alyssa held Su Yu's arm and softly asked, "Ke, what are you planning to do next?"
Tina also cast a concerned glance.
Su Yu thought for a moment and quickly answered, "I still have 132 hours left for today, which is about 5 and a half days. I'll stay in the palace with you for these 5 days."
"That's great!" Alyssa was very pleased, pulling him down to the main hall. "Now, let's go and deal with these people below! I'll introduce the kings and dukes of the Western Continent to you, but you should already know them, right?"
"Of course, I already know them; they're all old acquaintances," Su Yu smiled and rubbed his nose.
