Chapter 1128: Chapter 319: Fang Ze Claims Territory and Divides Borders!
“So… whether it’s suppressing the rebellion or turning a blind eye to it, both are actually the wrong choices.”
When the military elder reached this point, he didn’t continue speaking, but the aning was unmistakably clear.
Upon hearing this, a few other elders first showed a look of realization, but soon they frowned again.
Fang Ze’s challenge is indeed very clever. Although they have their own private concerns, the Human Race is constantly at risk of extinction. They mostly have a selfless heart, theoretically they are truly willing to support Fang Ze.
However… they have had too little contact with Fang Ze and have no understanding of him as a person. Although Fang Ze currently seems very capable in combat, who knows what his abilities and character are really like?
If they support him simply because he is strong and has the potential to save the Human Race, directly putting the future of the entire race in his hands, what if they are wrong about him?
Fang Ze is of demigod blood and can ascend to demigod status. If domain wars fail by then, he can easily leave as a demigod, leaving billions of Humans to perish with the world.
So, for a mont, none of the elders knew how to respond.
At that mont, the well-dressed elder spoke again.
He stood up and slowly said, “Everyone, don’t rush to make a decision. Things aren’t as exaggerated or extre as we think.”
“Even if Fang Ze is arrogant and unruly, it’s impossible for him to control a Venerable and force us to abdicate.”
“Put simply, this test is only about whether we are attached to power, whether we’re willing to sacrifice everything for Human victory, and whether we possess a heart of tolerance.”
“Therefore, as long as we show our willingness to preserve the strength of humanity, accept his unreasonable conditions; agree to cooperate with him mainly, let him control the Eastern Administrative Region; and are willing to test him, with the intention of making him the supre of the Human Race, that’s enough.”
“Since he knows to test us, he also understands that we need ti to investigate him.”
“Doesn’t he just want the Eastern Administrative Region?” The well-dressed elder said boldly, “Then give it to him!”
“His strength hasn’t reached its peak yet, he needs the Power of Faith to ascend! Then help him gather it!”
“As long as he is genuinely willing to support the Human Race, to take up this banner! I’m also ready to hand over the Chairperson title to him!”
“Facing extinction, a prodigy finally erges who is willing and able to bear the banner, why are we hesitating?”
“Hesitation is death, but gambling might still give us hope. If he wants to wager, let’s see his ttle, and if it’s adequate, then we’ll gamble with him!”
…..
anwhile.
On the battlefield, in the Saints’ Forest, Tuoya Continent.
As Fang Ze helped Emperor Li to his feet, Emperor Li asked with a complex expression, “Fang Ze, are you really planning to break ties with the Federation?”
Hearing Emperor Li’s question, Fang Ze smiled and retorted, “Don’t say such things. I am a loyalist of the Federation.”
“I’m just thinking about the safety of the Eastern Administrative Region.”
Emperor Li: ….
Seeing Emperor Li’s expression of wanting to knock him out, Fang Ze quickly anded his words to prevent the old man from going to et Old Mr. Bai in a fit of excitent, “Of course… there is a tiny bit of self-interest.”
At this point, Fang Ze gestured with his index finger and thumb, proving that he indeed had only a minuscule bit of self-interest.
“I have already reached the Ascension stage. Old Mr. Bai told that to reach the Absolute Pinnacle, one needs to collect faith. To beco a Venerable, one also needs a basis of personal faith. So I need the support of the Eastern Administrative Region.”
“And now the power in the entire Eastern Administrative Region is scattered, the strong forces are almost decimated, and authority is in a vacuum state; I certainly can’t let go of this rare opportunity.”
Hearing Fang Ze’s words, Emperor Li looked at Fang Ze thoughtfully: Fang Ze, one must admit, was right.
Now, both Unity powerhouses of the Eastern Administrative Region are dead, nine out of eleven demigods are gone, and the remaining two are seriously injured. Of the seven military bases, so are destroyed and so severely damaged, leaving almost nothing usable.
The remaining forces, let alone countering Fang Ze, don’t even have a single demigod-level figure to check Fang Ze’s power.
In the entire Eastern Administrative Region, Fang Ze stands unmatched, with no one capable of opposing him. Therefore, even if he ascended the throne as king, no one would dare to object.
The most crucial elent for ascension to Absolute Pinnacle is the Power of Faith, which indeed presents a golden opportunity for Fang Ze.
Thus, Emperor Li thought for a mont, and if he were in Fang Ze’s shoes, he might be tempted too.
The only problem is whether the Federation would accept such an abrupt ergence of an “Eastern King” within their country…
At this thought, Emperor Li paused, suddenly feeling like he was overthinking: he’s just an injured demigod, what does it have to do with him whether the Federation accepts or not?
Also, the Chairperson who wasn’t on the battlefield recuperates at ho, so should he, the wounded Vice Chairperson.
As for the Eastern Administrative Region…
Thinking about this, Emperor Li couldn’t help but glance at Fang Ze.
This world already belongs to the young…
…
Later that night, several major events occurred in the entire Eastern Administrative Region.
The first was that Fang Ze, accompanied by Emperor Li, convened a council eting of the Eastern Administrative Region.
At the eting, Fang Ze, holding a docunt and video left by He Weidao, temporarily assud the position of Vice Chairperson of the Eastern Administrative Region.
At the sa eting, through remote video, the Federation’s Grand Chairperson, the well-dressed elder, also extended congratulations to Fang Ze for temporarily assuming the Vice Chairperson position.
Because prior to the eting, council heads from all continents and departnt heads had all received related war reports, and more importantly, guidance from high-level leaders of the Federation, the whole eting proceeded very smoothly.
The second event was that Fang Ze disbanded over a million soldiers who had participated in the war and witnessed his divine power from the three destroyed military bases, redistributing them across various cities in the states for replacents and assistance in reorganizing military bases, thereby restructuring the military strength of each state.
His awe-inspiring power in that battle would spread throughout the states, carried by the over one million soldiers.
The third event was that, in the capacity of Vice Chairperson, Fang Ze officially inford the public in the Eastern Administrative Region about so of the current predicants faced by the Human Race: creatures from the Outer Realm are continuously invading the Real World.
During this period, he took the opportunity to promote himself and other heroes who fought against the outer demigods through the internet, streaming dia, television, newspapers, etc.
This included Old Mr. Bai, a few demigods, as well as the over one million soldiers from the destroyed military bases.
This promotional campaign, in conjunction with the fall and subsequent recovery of the two states, quickly educated the people in the Eastern Administrative Region about this war.
Due to the intentional downplaying of the power gap between the Human Race and the Outer Realms in the promotion, combined with the Human Race’s victory in this war, the public not only didn’t feel any fear but instead developed a sense of responsibility, mission, and respect for the heroes.
During this period, the only aspect downplayed was He Weidao.
When asked how to define He Weidao, Fang Ze hesitated for a long ti before deciding not to publicize him.
But afterward, Fang Ze ticulously recorded all of He Weidao’s actions over the years in official archives. This included He Weidao’s various conspiracies and layouts over the past decade, as well as his ultimate sacrifice for the Human Race.
Fang Ze felt that as a contemporary, it was difficult for him to evaluate this complex individual objectively. It should be left to future generations and history to judge.
And after successfully taking control of the Eastern Administrative Region through this great battle, Fang Ze was not idle.
While the authority of the Eastern Administrative Region was tempting, what was even more alluring was Fang Ze’s most significant gain from this battle: Venerable Yuan Gu.
