Chapter 323: Samsung, Song Gongming?

Chapter 323: Samsung, Song Gongming?

“It’s not like that. Li Kui has indeed stayed with Song Jiang.

“But Wu Yong and Hua Rong are in a different settlement.”

Those words surprised Ji Ye.

“Which province does Song Jiang’s settlement belong to? Not us Southwest Province, I presume?”

Ji Ye was confused, but he still asked the important question first.

Because the Twin Dragon Island had run into the Land of Radiation and the Musical House, which were related to An Quan and Chu Yin respectively.

In this round, settlements from Earth could very likely encounter one another.

It was obvious that the more closely related the two settlements were, the higher the possibility that they would meet.

The settlement Song Jiang was in should also be a Water Margin settlement like the Twin Dragon Mount, and that would be their connection.

If the two settlements belonged to the same province, it probably wouldn’t be too long before they run into each other.

If Song Jiang really had the talent that Ji Ye had speculated, it went without saying that he would pose a great risk to the Twin Dragon Island, which mainly consisted of heroes from the Water Margin.

“No, it’s not one of ours. It doesn’t even belong to Chidragon...”

Director Zhou shook his head; the look on his face was rather strange.

“It’s a settlement of the country of Samsung known as the Breeze Mountain...”

“What? A Samsung settlement?”

Ji Ye frowned.

Hearing Director Zhou’s explanation that followed, he realized what had happened.

It was the same situation as when Ren Hamlet showed up in Ameagle. The Breeze Mountain, which was of the Water Margin background, showed up in the corresponding settlement of Samsung beta testers.

And unlike what happened in the Ren Hamlet, the beta tester arriving at this settlement was a native Samsung.

He just happened to like Chidragon classical literature.

It didn’t cause much attention at first.

Because according to the statistics of the confederate government, in a globalized time like this, especially when the confederate government had been promoting cultural communication, around 20% of the settlements in each country wouldn’t be from its own history and culture.

Not to mention that Samsung had once been heavily influenced by Chidragon culture.

All four classic masterpieces were relatively well-known in Samsung.

Therefore, when the Water Margin settlement appeared in Samsung, it didn’t attract much attention like when a settlement with a Chidragon background appeared in Ameagle.

Moreover, the initial heroes of the Breeze Mountain were three rather insignificant Earthly Spirits. They were Wang Ying “the Stumpy Tiger”, Yan Shun “the Multicoloured Tiger”, and Zheng Tianshou “the Fair Skinned Gentleman”. Ninth Uncle of the Ren Hamlet alone was more popular than the three of them combined.

It was safe to assume that this settlement used to be one of the weakest Water Margin settlements out there.

However, later in a battle against the alien race, the settlement obtained a Superior offering.

With it, it summoned the Heavenly Spirit Li Kui, the Black Whirlwind.

In terms of his absolute strength, Li Kui wasn’t among the top Liangshan heroes. One could even claim that he wasn’t good enough to be a Heavenly Spirit.

But there was no doubt that he was very famous. Because of that, with his additional talent, he was an excellent warrior in taking out common soldiers, just like his nickname suggested.

In the end, not only did the settlement manage to emerge victoriously in the Ten-Species Competition, for the A Hundred Vying Barges, it had even summoned over a dozen Earthly Spirits.

Having killed hundreds of alien race creatures, Li Kui had become a leader-level figure.

However, Song Jiang arrived about seven or eight days before.

After that, Li Kui gave his position as the leader of the settlement to his “Brother Gongming” without batting an eyelash.

“So, it’s very likely that Song Jiang has such a talent!”

Ji Ye narrowed his eyes.

“By the way, after Song Jiang’s arrival and his ‘crowning’, he performed a sacrificial ritual and summoned two Heavenly Spirit heroes.

“He has also changed the name of the Breeze Mountain settlement to ‘Water Margin’. Moreover, that beta tester has applied to the confederate government for the ‘Liangshan’ licensed trademark through Samsung.

“In fact, Samsung has done a good job in keeping this settlement a secret. We were only able to get some detailed information because it had to be released for the application of the trademark.”

Director Zhou frowned.

In fact, the Breeze Mountain settlement had been able to complete the Ten-Species Competition and gone this far in the A Hundred Vying Barges largely because Samsung knew the popularity and influence of the Water Margin and had given the settlement a lot of support.

Otherwise, it would never have gone this far depending on Li Kui alone, since he knew next to nothing apart from killing people.

It was obvious that, after Song Jiang arrived, they had worked together on an even higher level.

So much so that they had applied for the “Liangshan” trademark to the Confederation Office.

“Because no real Liangshan settlement had shown up so far, and Song Jiang is with them, they may succeed this time.”

Director Zhou seemed distressed and even a little angry.

Being robbed of a settlement with the country’s own cultural background wasn’t such a big deal.

After all, it was inevitable, and in a sense, it also reflected the cultural influence of a country.

But after changing the name of the settlement, they had also applied for a trademark using the other country’s culture. That was what disgusted Director Zhou.

“It really runs in the Samsung people’s blood, doesn’t it?” Ji Ye didn’t seem much affected and only said in a mocking tone.

But he had also kept something back.

If Song Jiang had been summoned by a Chidragon settlement and they ran into each other one day, things would get quite tricky.

But now that he had gone to a Samsung settlement and was suspected to have the ability to become the “big brother”, when they met, the Twin Dragon Island would have to think of a way to send the Leader Star back to where he came.

By now, Ji Ye had pretty much figured something out.

That was why despite all the sacrificial rituals the Twin Dragon Island had held and with all the Superior and Perfect offerings they used, Song Jiang still didn’t choose to come to the Twin Dragon Island.

Because the leader of the Twin Dragon Island wasn’t a Liangshan hero. Rather, it was Ji Ye.

Therefore, although he could influence the Heavenly Spirit heroes, they wouldn’t follow his command unconditionally.

For instance, people like Wu Song and Lu Zhishen had been against the amnesty all along and refused to take the official posts after they did what the emperor ordered them to do.

Under such circumstances, even if Song Jiang chose to come to the Twin Dragon Island, it wasn’t very likely that he could replace Ji Ye as the leader.

Moreover, with Ji Ye’s personality, he might even find a way to send the man back right away.
