Chapter 1962 - 1962 Double Win Luck
1962 Double Win Luck
The ever-calm Luo Lan could not help but scream like a deer seconds away from being hunted, “I want to! I even dream of it!”
After letting out her true thoughts, Luo Lan immediately realized she had lost control of herself.
At that moment, the calm voice said again, “Of course you want to. Before you came here, you had already decided to give up everything in order to fulfill this wish! Now, you can make the choice. Are you going to continue floating down the Ice Wave River until you eventually become the next meal of some aquatic beast and allow it to be fed, unlike your subjects who are starving, or are you going to form a contract with the seat behind you to become a member of the Astronomical Parliament so I can help you return to the imperial court?”
Luo Lan had calmed down, and Lin Yuan’s words put her in a contemplative state.
!!
A wish made in the midst of despair and another made in a calm state were completely different.
As the first princess of the Iron Hammer Federation, Luo Lan was well aware that once she gave up everything and accepted the deliverance of the figure before her, she would no longer be herself but a chess piece belonging to this figure. By extension, the Iron Hammer Federation would also become just another piece on the figure’s chessboard that he would be able to control as he wished. Even if she did become queen of the Iron Hammer Federation, she would be helpless to defy him.
Her sense of responsibility overwhelmed her hatred and desire to survive.
She narrowed her eyes at Lin Yuan and said with a dry yet resolute voice, “I can become one of your chess pieces, free for you to place as you please, but I want you to promise me something. Once I return to the imperial court, you cannot interfere with my allocation of food and rations.”
Previously, Lin Yuan only saw as an idealistic princess on the lam.
What Luo Lan said caused Lin Yuan to look at her in a different light.
When she did not receive a response after a pregnant silence, Luo Lan sunk deeper into depression.
Just as she was about to hit rock bottom, the figure seated on the Leo throne finally said, “First, I want to remind you that you won’t become one of my chess pieces by joining the Astronomical Parliament. Instead, you’ll be my companion. Additionally, I will not only leave your allocation of food and rations alone, but I can also help you to eliminate the issue of hunger in the Iron Hammer Federation. Everyone’s bellies will be full, even during winter.”
In an instant, excitement and elation filled Luo Lan’s eyes.
She seemed to fear that Lin Yuan would go back on his words and immediately used her soul to form a contract with the north-south constellation seat behind her.
Lin Yuan’s promise to Luo Lan was not an empty one.
When he decided to take control of the Startling Lines Continent and turn it into the back garden of Sky City, he also made the decision to solve the Iron Hammer Federation’s hunger issue.
It was easy to solve this issue, and there were many ways to go about it.
The first way, and the most convenient way given the circumstances, was to deepen his relationship with the middleman that was the Great Lush Federation and carry out more trades to speed up the circulation of resources.
However, the Truth Association that supported the Great Lush Federation wanted to stir up trouble for the Iron Hammer Federation. Thus, this first way was not feasible.
The second option was to get rid of the Great Lush Federation that was causing trouble in the middle stage and try to change the relationship between the Divine Wood Federation from one of enmity to an alliance.
There was always an oversupply of fruits in the Divine Wood Federation, resulting in some fruits rotting in the corner. There were also piles of rations that often had to be burned to clear them away. These could be used to fill the bellies of the people from the Divine Wood Federation.
Before the Divine Wood Federation and Iron Hammer Federation became allies, Lin Yuan could give some of Sky Creation’s store of resources to the Iron Hammer Federation.

The marsh world had already become an incubator for Lin Yuan’s combat resources.
With Sentient Being Protective Dragon and Place in the World, various edible harvests could be collected every month.
This, something that stumped the entire Iron Hammer Federation, would be easy for Lin Yuan.
Although the Iron Hammer Federation was in a desolate environment, it had a substantial store of resources.
There was likely a mineral mine every few kilometers in the Iron Hammer Federation.
Alas, it was difficult for the tribal residents of the Iron Hammer Federation to develop the mineral mines.
However, Lin Yuan had the Land Imps. The mineral mines that were difficult for regular people to develop would be extremely easy for Heavy Mountain. It was also very competent at harvesting.
Heavy Mountain’s power would increase quickly as it developed mineral mines.
A large number of precious fire-type spiritual ingredients were always produced in areas of high temperature. The same went for places of low temperature, except ice-type spiritual ingredients were produced instead.
Ice-type spiritual ingredients were useless in the Iron Hammer Federation during winter. The Divine Wood Federation also did not have a great need for ice-type spiritual ingredients.
But the opposite went for the Radiance Federation.
The 36 major cities were currently building mirror cities in the Class 6 abyss dimensional rift. All of the spirit qi professionals and city guards had to endure unbearable temperatures of above 50 degrees.
The temperature in the abyssal world was much higher than that of the abyss dimensional rift.
In such an environment, low-rank spirit qi professionals needed the help of ice-type feys to lower the temperature even if they continuously replenished their fluids.
Transferring the unused water- and ice-type feys from the Iron Hammer Federation to the Radiance Federation’s efforts in the abyssal world would be able to immediately solve the Radiance Federation’s issue.
Both Luo Lan and the Iron Hammer Federation were lucky that she had been called into the Astronomical Parliament.
Lin Yuan and the Radiance Federation were also lucky.
When Luo Lan heard what Lin Yuan said, her soul started to quiver with excitement. She was so overwhelmed that she even temporarily lost the ability to speak.
Lin Yuan calling her a companion instead of a chess piece utterly warmed her heart.
When a person was in a state of utter despondency, it was almost impossible to be seen as a companion.
Luo Lan did not have to worry about being deceived by the figure in front of her because she had nothing to lose.
At that moment, Luo Lan stepped out from the mire of despair and found hope in this gathering of stars.
Regardless of what the ending turned out to be, the people in the Iron Hammer Federation would be saved from starvation during winter.
Once Luo Lan settled her buzzing soul, she fixed her eyes seriously in Lin Yuan and Wen Yu’s direction as she bowed to them.
All the gratitude she felt was conveyed in the gaze of her silent bow.
After Wen Yu told Luo Lan to take her seat, she went on with selecting the 10th member of the Astronomical Parliament.
