Chapter 2970 The Bloodians' Death Toll!

The Thunder-Descending Shadow's current functionality completely met Lin Yuan's expectations, and he was very satisfied with it.
Su Yiren and Luo Lan Lin Yuan had finished observing the Thunder-Descending Shadow and asked, "Young Master, do you need to specially nurture this Thunder-Descending Shadow in the future? If these Thunder-Descending Shadows require special training, why don't I look for Di Wanmi and ask her to formulate a follow-up training route according to your request?"
Sky City really did not have any Creators to use now. Di Wanmi could be said to be moved wherever she was needed.
However, Sky City's situation would soon be rewritten.
"The Thunder-Descending Shadow has grown well. The other Thunder-Descending Shadows can grow according to the standards of this one. There's no need to interfere more with the Thunder-Descending Shadows.
"There should be no lack of resources to nurture them. If you lack resources, just ask me. If I'm not around, go look for Master. She will provide you with resources!"
Apart from Lin Yuan who could mobilize resources at will, the Moon Empress was the only person in Sky City who could do so.
Lin Yuan trusted Liu Jie, Wen Yu, Su Yiren, and the others enough. However, if there were no restrictions on the use of resources, overuse of resources would inevitably lead to waste in the long run.
Moreover, Lin Yuan could not possibly give Sky City's core members the authority to allocate resources.
However, this would inevitably cause those who did not have the authority to dispatch resources to overthink.
Apart from himself, Lin Yuan had made the Moon Empress the only person who had the right to dispatch resources. Not only could she guarantee that Sky City would be provided with resources when Lin Yuan was not there, but she could also convince everyone.
"Young Master, rest assured. We've been diligent in nurturing these Thunder-Descending Shadows. However, their sheer numbers pose a challenge. Each Thunder-Descending Shadow requires individual attention, limiting the number of caretakers available. It may take five to six years to fully nurture all of them.
"Though we've only recently arrived in the Sky Beyond the Clouds, five to six years is a short span in the development of our faith country. By then, the faith country will likely achieve stability. In addition to generating ample faith, it will also foster talents to reinforce Sky City."
Lin Yuan nodded in agreement with Su Yiren.
It was evident that Lin Yuan had been supplying the faith country with resources. However, once the faith country was nurtured, it would undoubtedly yield significant benefits for Sky City.
If his sole aim was to garner faith, there would be no need for Lin Yuan to invest such effort in its development.
Recalling what Listen had reported a few days ago, Lin Yuan addressed Luo Lan and Su Yiren, stating, "Listen has already established trade channels for the densely populated 83rd and 144th districts in the north. These districts will serve as experimental grounds to assess the efficacy of the trade network. Any shortcomings identified will be swiftly addressed."
Su Yiren and Luo Lan received this news with delight, both deeply invested in the faith country's progress. With the two most prosperous regions now connected through trade, the residents could anticipate a markedly improved quality of life, transcending mere subsistence.
Coincidentally, Su Yiren and Luo Lan were keen to observe the resultant increase in faith power from these districts as trade commenced.
"Young Master, we are fully committed to facilitating the opening of trade channels in the 83rd and 144th districts," they affirmed. "We will soon meet with Listen to coordinate our efforts and arrange for additional security measures, including deploying two more batches of demon insects to safeguard these areas."
Lin Yuan smiled and nodded. After chatting with them for a while, he returned to the Spirit Lock spatial zone and used his body composition to support the Realm Abyss Red Lotus in refining the Continent Vein Core of the King Blood Jackals' territory.
North of the Lonely River was very peaceful. At the same time, it had entered a period of rapid development.
…
The first thing Season Cycle did after becoming a higher faerie was to help Emerald Lady and Gray Pool nurture the Soldier Ration Radishes through the Cleansing Breath Soil in their bodies. This allowed the Soldier Ration Radishes to grow rapidly.
The Soldier Ration Radishes that originally needed a long time to be distributed could now be distributed in large quantities!
Season Cycle still existed in her original form. She proposed to Lin Yuan that the Titan Rhinoceros Elephants should inhabit her territory. This arrangement ensured that the Titan Rhinoceros Elephants could still thrive on the Cleansing Breath Soil and also have access to the Soldier Ration Radishes, which were growing rapidly.
Lin Yuan did not reject Season Cycle's opinion.
Indeed, Season Cycle was the best place for the Titan Rhinoceros Elephants to survive.
Firstly, she could solve the cost of manpower and transportation. Secondly, even if the Titan Rhinoceros Elephants had sufficient food, they still needed space to move around.
The Titan Rhinoceros Elephants had thought that they would be hungry for a long time, but in the end, all their problems were solved in just a few days.
Lin Yuan had provided a better living environment for this species. The Titan Rhinoceros Elephants had never thought that their species would one day be able to live on a higher faerie!
…
Unlike the peace in North of the Lonely River, the mermaids and Bloodians in the Blue Shark Sea far away from Lin Yuan were engaged in an intense battle.
The mermaids had already received word that the Bloodians planned to attack them in the Blue Shark Sea and had secured several allies in anticipation.
However, not all sea creatures were willing to engage in conflict with the Bloodians, known for their relentless pursuit of enemies.
Despite the mermaids' preparations, the ensuing conflict inflicted significant losses on both sides, driving them to fight to the death.
Over ten empress-class mermaids fell victim to the Bloodians, an intolerable blow for the mermaid community.
The Bloodians held inherent strength over the mermaids, and their motives for initiating the war were driven by a desire for sustenance rather than mere conquest—other sea species also risked becoming their prey.
Many sea creatures who came to the aid of the mermaids were slaughtered, prompting others to reconsider their involvement and retreat.
The Bloodians made clear their unwavering intent to target the mermaids, deploying a potent poison that not only harmed the mermaids but also affected other sea species.
Following the departure of the first wave of sea allies, some chose to submit to the Bloodians.
The prospect of depleting their species' elite combatants in this conflict posed a grave threat to their survival in the sea, a price the mermaids could still afford.
Should one species withdraw, others would likely join the fight.
The mermaids struggled to maintain their defenses as the leaders of the Bloodian clans convened for a crucial meeting.
Qin Yu sat on one of the seven gem-encrusted seats. Previously, Qin Yu did not have the right to sit in such a seat. Qin Yu had already become a true leader of the Bloodians.
Qin Yu was even more grateful to Lin Yuan.
A tall female Bloodian sitting on the throne with a mole on the tip of her nose spoke. "Should we keep attacking these mermaids? They're no longer providing any benefits.
"Our clans have captured numerous mermaids already. These captives could serve as a temporary food source for us!
"Not only do we risk losing strength by continuing to fight, but the Bloodians, especially those with royal bloodlines, have already suffered significant losses, with some clans having less than 30% of their population remaining."
As the tall Bloodian Queen with a mole on the tip of her nose spoke, she revealed a sympathetic expression.
Those who did not know better would definitely think that this Bloodian Queen might seem inherently kind-hearted.
However, those familiar with the circumstances understood the truth: she continually deployed king clans to the front lines in the ongoing conflict against the mermaids and sea clans.
This marked her first presence at such a gathering.
Though Qin Yu harbored her own thoughts, she refrained from speaking impulsively. Any words she uttered now held the potential to sway the interests of the Elisa clan.
In this meeting, only a queen possessed the authority to address such a high-level internal Bloodian assembly. Others could only stand below, listening in silence.
Luxury mattered greatly to the Bloodians, a fact underscored by the ease with which they acquired chairs. The presence of Bloodian leaders who had the bloodline of kings served primarily to showcase the elevated status of the seven Bloodian Queens.
The oldest Bloodian Queen spoke in a pleasant tone. "What's so difficult about that? Whether it's the mermaids or other sea species, they're just food to us.
"We've already acquired what we want, so why linger on this sustenance? Must we eradicate all of them? How can we ensure our reproduction if we exterminate these delicacies?
"They won't continue to provide sustenance in the future! It's regrettable that many Bloodians with king bloodlines have perished. Throughout the years, under the current queens' protection, Bloodian clans with king bloodlines have absorbed numerous dependent species. Select exceptional beings from these dependents and convert them into Bloodians. They can compensate for the population loss quickly.
"The Bloodian lineage primarily relies on blood. clan members don't necessarily need to be pure-blooded newborns from childbirth."
The Bloodian Queen's words made the faces of the Bloodian leaders with king bloodlines turn extremely ugly. However, no one dared to retort publicly.
That was indeed true, but the main way for Bloodians to reproduce was still to rely on pure-blooded Bloodians to reproduce, not to forcefully transform other species through blood essence. Such a transformation method did not involve any so-called emotions.
These people who were chosen from their dependent species did not have any sense of belonging to the Bloodians. It was very likely that doing so would raise the status of the members of a few dependent species and affect the balance between the dependent species.
Qin Yu remained silent. She was even more grateful to Lin Yuan in her heart.
This operation had caused such heavy losses to the Bloodians, far exceeding Qin Yu's expectations.
If she had not become a new Bloodian Queen, the Elisa clan would still be a clan with a queen bloodline but without a queen to preside over them. The members of the Elisa clan would have definitely rushed to the battlefield.
The members of the Bloodian clans who had queen bloodlines had indeed lost a lot less, but it was not as if they had not lost more than 20% of their elite population.
At present, everything between her and the Elisa clan was bestowed by Lin Yuan. Qin Yu knew that Lin Yuan's goal was to control the Scarlet Territory.
Qin Yu would constantly strengthen herself and raise her status among the Bloodians to achieve this goal.
Seeing that Qin Yu had not opened her mouth, the tall Bloodian Queen with a mole on the tip of her nose said with a smile, "Sister Qin Yu, you've only just taken up this position. Are you still a little nervous?
"Since everyone is still in the middle of deciding whether or not to continue fighting against the sea species, it's up to us to decide. Why don't we let Sister Qin Yu decide on this matter?"
Previously, Qin Yu was a male Bloodian when she was a Bloodian king. Although she had changed her gender when she was promoted to a queen, she was still a little unaccustomed to being called 'Sister' in public.
However, all the Bloodian Queens there were much more experienced than her. It was understandable for them to call her sister.
Since she was called, it was not appropriate for Qin Yu to not speak even if she did not want to be in the limelight.
Qin Yu had already achieved her goal. There was no need for her to stay here any longer. Escaping now was the best choice.
When she returned, she would have a reason to contact Lin Yuan and explain the specific situation of this operation to him. Then, she would trade the mermaid captives she had captured to Lin Yuan.
"If everyone is interested in my opinion, I see no reason to kill these mermaids. What's the urgency regarding food? If the need arises later on, we can always reconsider targeting the mermaids.
"I've recently assumed the role of a Bloodian Queen, and there's much I have yet to learn. If anyone disagrees with my viewpoint, please feel free to express your thoughts. You're not obligated to abide by my decision!
"However, I want to clarify one thing: The Elisa clan will no longer partake in future operations against the mermaids, nor will we share any resources acquired from such endeavors."
