In the base hastily constructed beside the portal, Su Han sat in an office, signing some tedious documents.
After signing these papers, Su Han quickly grew weary.
"This is so bothersome. I'll have Chu Shi come tomorrow. Or perhaps someone adept at handling these files."
With that thought, Su Han added the plan to his schedule.
"Knock, knock, knock."
Suddenly, the phone on Su Han's desk rang. Su Han picked it up.
"Hello, who is this?"
A voice responded.
"Deputy Minister Su Han, hello. We've just apprehended a cultivator. This cultivator is an elder from the Clear Water Sect, with a Foundation Establishment cultivation. During interrogation, we learned that the Clear Water Sect intends to destroy our Clear Wind Sect and has relayed this information to the White Crane Gate."
Su Han mulled this over, then said, "The White Crane Gate? Ah, I recall. They're the leaders of the White Crane Alliance, which both the Clear Wind Sect and Clear Water Sect are part of. Continue interrogating that Clear Water Sect elder. Ask if they have any further intelligence. Also, prevent the Clear Water Sect from tipping off the White Crane Gate. Deploy drones to install cameras and monitor the Clear Water Sect."
"Yes!"
The Dragon Country soldiers, having received their orders, continued interrogating Elder Hu. Further questioning yielded more intelligence, including the location and strength of the Clear Water Sect.
Upon learning the location, the Dragon Country soldiers immediately set out to monitor the Clear Water Sect.
Su Han continued to wait, and another day passed.
Finally, Chu Shi arrived from the Dinosaur World, bringing a large contingent of people with him.
The group numbered several hundred. Each of them was dressed in attire typical of the inhabitants of World 4 and had their hair tied back, appearing just like the natives of this world.
Su Han inquired, "Chu Shi, who are these people you've brought?"
Chu Shi replied, "Deputy Minister Su Han, these individuals will be exploring this world. Through their explorations, we will learn much about World 4. They will venture into this world, and some will attempt to join cultivation sects within World 4, just as you proposed. These are all individuals of exceptional character."
Su Han surveyed the group and said, "Yes, this is a sound method. This world is so vast; how will you deploy these people across it? Will you transport them by hovercar?"
Chu Shi nodded. "Yes, that's correct. We will use hovercars to transport them to various locations in the cultivation world of World 4. As you said, Deputy Minister Su Han, this world is immense, which is why hovercars are necessary to take them to different parts of this planet. Next, they will spend a few days in Ji Lake County, assisting the local populace in rebuilding it. That will suffice for now."
Following this, the hundreds of people stood in a neat, orderly line.
Su Han asked, puzzled, "What are they doing here? Why are they lined up?"
Chu Shi explained, "Well, as per protocol, it's customary for Deputy Minister Su Han to address them."
"Huh? There's such a thing?"
Su Han was quite perplexed. He wondered why his Otherworld Development Department was adopting such practices. However, he conceded that it wouldn't hurt to motivate them before their departure.
Su Han said, "Alright, then I shall address them properly."
Although Su Han hadn't prepared a speech, speaking on the spot was simple enough.
Su Han walked to the front of the several hundred people and picked up the microphone to begin speaking.
Su Han started with common vernacular, as it was necessary for communication in World 4.
"Everyone, this world possesses vast lands. Within this world, you can join a sect to cultivate, or you can travel through its cities. In this world, the primary strength lies in individual power. Indeed, this is the difference between a cultivation world and a technological one. A technological world is about collective strength, while a cultivation world is about individual might. If even one of you achieves immortality, our Dragon Country will instantly become the most formidable power in this cultivation universe. One more thing: you don't necessarily have to join a sect to cultivate. There are also rogue cultivators in this world. You can achieve cultivation by apprenticing with a rogue cultivator as well."
"However, you must not join the demonic path. Even if you do, you must absolutely not harm our Dragon Country's interests, harm our Dragon Country's people, or violate our Dragon Country's laws. You must not arbitrarily slaughter the common people of this world. Once you begin slaughtering the common people of this world, you will be consumed by karmic fire and stained by karma. Karma and karmic fire will ultimately destroy you. The more karma and karmic fire you accumulate, the more perilous the heavenly tribulations you will face. Remember this."
Su Han's earnest teachings might not be fully understood by them now, but when they later experience karmic fire and karma, they will realize the correctness of Su Han's words.
After speaking, Su Han departed.
Following this, various hoverbuses arrived and transported everyone to Ji Lake County.
Ji Lake County was currently undergoing reconstruction. The previous battle had destroyed one-third of the county.
At the construction site of Ji Lake County, residents were bustling about, carrying various items. Some laborers were meticulously laying bricks and building walls.
As they worked diligently, over a dozen hovercars flew in from a distance.
Upon seeing these hovercars, the residents of Ji Lake County cried out in alarm.
"Oh no, those magical treasures have appeared again."
"Is another battle about to begin? Quick, we need to find cover!"
"That's right, let's hide quickly."
The residents of Ji Lake County scattered in all directions.
The hovercars immediately began broadcasting.
"Dear uncles and brothers, there's no need to be afraid. We are here to help you."
"..."
The loudspeakers on the hovercars continued their broadcast, but the residents of Ji Lake County, still bearing the scars of past trauma, remained fearful.
As the dozen hovercars landed, people began to disembark. These individuals then proceeded to the construction site to begin building houses.
On the first day, the residents of Ji Lake County did not believe them. Nor did they on the second day. It wasn't until the third day that some residents of Ji Lake County gradually began to join in. By the later days, more and more residents of Ji Lake County participated.
