Chapter 832: Defined Summoning Card

Translator:?ryangohsff?Editor:?Nora

Gaia 4th year, 3rd month, 18th day, Nanjiang Governor-General House.

The three evaluators arrived at the main hall, and the first request they made was to release the merchant group. Ouyang Shuo naturally could not agree to that, “I am sorry, but they broke the Shanhai City territory law system. Even me as a Lord cannot interfere.”

The three of them were anxious, “One of them is an evaluator. At least release him?”

Ouyang Shuo shook his head once more.

“Without him, we cannot complete the evaluation.” The three of them started to use the evaluation to threaten him.

Ouyang Shuo smiled; he had discussed this matter with Wei Yang beforehand, “Due to special circumstances, based on the special terms of the law system, we can allow that mister to engage in monitored activities. When the evaluation ends, he will return to the jail.”

“…”

The three of them were stunned.

Ouyang Shuo continued, “Do not worry; he will not be treated unfairly in the jail. After he serves his time, I will personally return him to Dali.”

“Well then.”

Although the three of them were given power, they could not openly threaten Ouyang Shuo, this Lord.

After arriving at a consensus, the three of them introduced themselves. Including the man who was serving his sentence, the four of them came from the ministry of rites, ministry of appointments, ministry of revenue, and ministry of war.

The one leading them was from the ministry of rites Langzhong (official title) Mister He.

After a short while, Mister Li, who was the ministry of revenue Langzhong, was brought into the main hall. For the following evaluation, he would be followed by the bailiffs 24/7.

Mister Li seemed like he already knew the results of the discussion from both sides, so he had a dejected expression. How would he have known that he would be locked up just because of an evaluation? He would not have the face to return to Dali after this.

The leading Mister He said, “Governor-General, we have evaluated the culture, commerce, people sentiments, and construction of Shanhai City. Now, all that remains is the military and technology development departments.”

Ouyang Shuo’s eyes froze; they were going to take this chance to peek at the core secrets of Shanhai City.

“Sure.” Ouyang Shuo had no choice.

He wanted to see what these few civil servants could do.

As he spoke, Ouyang Shuo invited Du Ruhui and introduced him, “Sirs, this is the Director of Military Affairs and he will accompany you in your evaluation. Anything you want to ask or base you want to go to, Mister Du will arrange it for you.”

Mister He nodded his head in satisfaction, “That’s great.”

Du Ruhui led the four toward the Guards Legion Corps camp before bringing them to areas such as the military workshop, shipyard, steelmaking factories, as well as cannon making base.

This part of the evaluation took another day.

On the morning of the 19th day, the four of them did a final evaluation in a side palace that Ouyang Shuo arranged for them.

Based on the report by Du Ruhui, they were honest in their evaluation and did not purposely seek out any problems. Ouyang Shuo was still feeling really nervous, and he was afraid that he missed out something.

After all, these people did not come here with good intentions.

3 PM, it was time for the results to be announced.

Within the main hall, apart from the convicted mister Li, the rest of them look normal. Mister He did a final description of the evaluation, “Governor-General, the four of us were ordered to performed an all-round evaluation of Shanhai City. Through our discussion, we have all agreed that Shanhai City has passed. Congratulations.

At basically the same time, a System Notification sounded out by Ouyang Shuo’s ear.

“System Notification: Congratulations Qiyue Wuyi, Capital City upgrade quest 1, politics, culture, technology, military, and economy have all reached good levels, quest complete!”

These people were truly stringent.

The mock evaluation by Jiang Shang found that all five indexes were exceptional while they said it was only good. If it were not for Shanhai City not having any weaknesses, they might have actually failed him.

“Finally passed!”

Two days ago, the 3rd quest, new soldier type, had already been completed.

Out of the three Capital City upgrade quests, only the 2nd quest was left. During this period of time, the various Prefectures and counties all checked their people, and they even went to the villages.

Regretfully, even in Minnan, they failed to find any fortune tellers.

This mysterious lady had become the biggest obstacle for Shanhai City.

‘I have no choice. I have to use my last killing move.’ Ouyang Shuo thought to himself.

Ouyang Shuo raised his head and smiled gently, “Thank you all.”

“We were only following orders.” Mister He smiled too, “Governor-General, the evaluation is already over, so can you release Mister Li? Do not worry, we will tell his majesty to punish him when we return, how about that?”

When Mister Li heard these words, a hopeful expression appeared on his face.

Ouyang Shuo smiled and shook his head, “I said that I have no ability to interfere, and I really have no power to do so.”

“….”

Mister He’s face also turned black, “Then that’s goodbye!”

“Wait!”

“What does Governor-General want?” Mister He asked coldly.

Ouyang Shuo smiled, “Mister He, when you go back, please help me greet Duan Prince. Tell him that I’ll remember what happened to Qingfeng Pavilion.”

“You!”

Mister He’s voice started to tremble.

When Ouyang Shuo saw this reaction, he felt even more assured of his conjecture. The Prince Duan he mentioned was not an NPC but a player like Caesar who joined the royal family when he entered the game.

It was said that his family were the descendants of the Dali Duan family, so it was no wonder that he had access to such an opportunity.

In the last life, although he could not be compared to the one in Jingdu, he was really famous in the wilderness. The time, he would truly gain fame when the Dali Duan family moved into the imperial city.

The Dali royal family started from 937 A.D. and ended in 1254 A.D., spanning 24 emperors and 318 years. It was present during the five generation ten countries period as well as the Song and Yuan dynasties.

The Dali family in Demi-gods and Semi-devils referred to this imperial family. Of course, Duan Zhengcheng and Duan Heyu were not as exaggerated as written in the novel.

Both father and son had taken the throne, and Duan Heyu was also the longest serving emperor.

However, as a result of the fight for the throne between his few sons, he relinquished his position and became a monk out of annoyance.

It was because these two were too famous that Gaia choose Duan Zhengcheng to be the Dali emperor and for Duan Heyu to be the prince.

The little prince was known as Duan Hong; he was an extremely ambitious person. He had been planning on how to obtain the position of Emperor and take control of Dali imperial city since the start of the game.

After Duan Heyu appeared, the two of them fought a battle over the position of prince. Because their infighting was so serious, it let the name of Duan Hong spread across the wilderness, to the point where even all the normal peoples learned of it.

Hence, when Qingfeng Pavilion was targeted, Ouyang Shuo immediately thought about him. It was probably under his instructions that these four Langzhongs spied on Shanhai City’s secrets.

Ouyang Shuo was naturally going to take revenge for this.

Mister He stared at Ouyang Shuo, cupping his fists and taking his leave, leaving Mister Li standing there alone. … 3rd month, 20th day, Shanhai City.

In the quiet reading room, Ouyang Shuo held a really special card.

Defined Summoning Card (King Rank): After use, player can summon a chosen type of character. Friendly Reminder: can only summon character of King Rank and below.

This special card was given to him when Gong Chengshi visited last time.

Gong Chengshi had obtained this and wanted to summon a general. However, after he learned that Ouyang Shuo was facing problems, he especially passed this card to him.

Deep down, it also meant he wanted to pledge his loyalty.

With this card, Ouyang Shuo could use the Recruitment Hall’s monthly special talent recruitment to choose to summon a fortune teller and complete the last mission.

However, to use such a precious card to summon such a useless person was a waste of a treasure. Hence, if he was not forced to do so, Ouyang Shuo would not have chosen to use it in such a manner.

Along with the completion of the other two quests, Ouyang Shuo could not let matters drag on any longer.

“Forget it, let’s just waste it!”

Thinking about this, Ouyang Shuo left the reading room and arrived at the Recruitment Hall.

“System Notification: Discovered that player has a chance to recruit a special talent, will you use it?”

Ouyang Shuo did not reply and just took out the defined summoning card.

“System Notification: Detected special item, can change chance to recruit special talent into choosing a specific occupation special talent, will you use it?”

“Yes!”

“System Notification: Item used, please define the occupation.”

“Fortune Teller!”

“System Notification: Occupation selected, would you like to summon?”

“Summon!”

A white light shone across and a fortune teller walked out.

When Ouyang Shuo saw that, he heaved a sigh of relief. Meanwhile, a System Notification sounded out by his ear.

“System Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi, Capital City upgrade quest 2 36 industries have been completed!”
