Chapter 1030: Conquer
"Let's talk about the situation in Aru Village first."
Under the night, Bai Qiyun and Candice stood up and walked side by side in the deserted alley.
The aftermath of the fight between the two had not spread far before Bai Qiyun extinguished it, so he was not afraid of others discovering their whereabouts.
"Yes, Your Majesty, Aru Village currently has a permanent population of 9,763 people and more than 5,000 houses."
After the confrontation just now, Candice was completely surrendered at this time, and respectfully explained the current situation of Aru Village to Bai Qiyun.
Hearing this, Bai Qiyun raised his eyebrows slightly.
It turns out that there are so few people in Aru Village. He thought that as the last core area of desert civilization, there must be tens of thousands of people at least.
This huge disparity in numbers really makes them unable to compete with the rainforest people in Sumeru.
"Why are there so few people?"
"this..."
This sentence stopped Candice from asking.
Facing this question, a rare look of hesitation appeared on her face.
"Actually, there were many people in Aru Village a long time ago."
"How long ago was it?"
"About a few hundred years ago?"
As Candice answered, there was a strange silence between the two.
Hundreds of years...that's too far away.
Bai Qiyun shook his head, suppressed his speechlessness, and continued to ask.
"I have met many desert people in the rainforest. Don't they have anything to do with Aru Village?"
"It's like this. Most of the people of Aru Village are active in the Kavanyi area in the form of mercenaries. If you have seen the desert people who settled here in the rain forest, those people must have gone to the rain forest in the past years.
The desert people should have nothing to do with the current Aru Village."
"I see."
Bai Qiyun nodded slightly when he heard this.
There are less than 10,000 people, which is indeed a very small number. It is not even comparable to the people in a large community in Liyue Port.
But precisely because of this, changing the living environment of these people was much easier than he had previously imagined.
After thinking for a moment, Bai Qiyun decided to tell the whole story about Disiya.
"Candice, I wonder if you know someone named Desiya."
As soon as these words came out, the look on Candice's face paused.
She didn't seem to expect that Bai Qiyun would mention this name.
But she reacted quickly and said quickly.
"I didn't know the Lord would mention this name."
"Oh? So you know me."
Looking at Candice's subconsciously tense face, Bai Qiyun suddenly felt that teasing this woman seemed quite interesting.
He chuckled.
"Okay, don't think too much. Disiya has a life-long relationship with me. She mentioned you to me."
Bai Qiyun patted Candice's shoulder, making her body relax again.
Hearing this, Candice breathed a sigh of relief, but then felt surprised.
It really surprised him that that blustering Disiya would be related to such a man.
But the actual situation may be more outrageous than she imagined.
After all, as a descendant of Bai Qiyun, Disiya is half a level higher than the divine attendant she was assigned to.
I don’t know what the expressions on their faces will be like when the two of them find out each other’s identities.
When he thought of this, Bai Qiyun couldn't help but want to watch the fun.
"Yes...really? Then please take good care of Disiya, Your Majesty. She looks carefree on weekdays. If there is any offense to Your Majesty, please forgive me."
"Ha, it's not an offense at all."
Bai Qiyun smiled and shook his head.
He will have plenty of places to offend these two girls in the future.
"By the way, are there any other Eye of God holders besides you among those divine servants?"
"That's not the case."
Hearing this, Bai Qiyun couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
It seems that even the so-called God Lord with great supernatural powers cannot find more holders of the Eyes of God.
But Candice alone is worth the price of a trip to Aru Village where he can change his itinerary.
Candice looked at Bai Qiyun who was silent and thought she had said something wrong, so she quickly added.
"My Lord, although the other divine servants do not have the Eye of God, they still contribute to the village..."
"Don't be nervous, I didn't say anything."
Bai Qiyun found that Candice seemed very insecure, and his casual questions could make her uneasy.
Although he is powerful, he is not a person who kills indiscriminately, and he cannot decide the life and death of such a group of people at will.
Bai Qiyun gently patted Candice's shoulder a few times to signal her not to be nervous.
"In this case, I don't have to contact the remaining people one by one. If you were leading them before, you will still be leading them next."
For him, Candice, the most valuable among the divine servants, is just in his hands.
Too much contact with other people would be detrimental to his next plan.
"Yes, my lord."
When Candice heard this, she bowed her head as if she had been granted amnesty.
The original peaceful temperament disappeared from her body at this moment.
Bai Qiyun still admires her for being calm and gentle in dealing with others.
After thinking for a moment, Bai Qiyun informed Candice of his decision to transform Aru Village.
Hearing this, the look on Candice's face instantly turned from worry to joy.
She opened her eyes wide and said in disbelief.
"Lord, is what you say true?"
So many things happened in just one day, Candice felt that her brain was not enough.
"Ah, I don't need to lie to you about this kind of thing, but there are only so many people in Aru Village, which relieves me a lot of pressure."
Bai Qiyun did not tell Candice that this was the result of her friend Disia selling herself, mainly because she did not want to damage his image in the other party's mind.
"You don't have to worry about resource scheduling, but if you want to transform the surrounding environment, you still need a lot of manpower. I hope you can mobilize these people to participate."
Candice did not hesitate and immediately agreed.
As a citizen of Aru Village, she knows very well how important this matter is to the local residents.
"Of course, we will dedicate all our strength to you."
Bai Qiyun did not reveal more details to Candice.
The two walked in the night for a while and then parted ways.
Returning to his temporary residence, Bai Qiyun opened the door and ran into Fa Lushan who had just finished washing.
Didn't this guy just take a shower at noon? He even took a shower once in half a day in such an extremely dry place.
Bai Qiyun's eyes passed over the pure water creatures lying on the side. He probably squeezed these little things and got a bucket of bath water out.
"Teacher, haven't you slept yet?"
Bai Qiyun walked to the bedroom with a sneer and looked at Fa Lushan who was wrapped in a bath towel again. He felt a little guilty for some reason.
Hearing his voice, Fa Lushan, who was focusing on the book in her hand, raised her head.
"Ah? Why did you just come back? It's not safe outside, and how could I lock the door if you don't come back? Do you want to sleep on the street?"
