1228: Chapter 15 Employment.
[Triple Release 3/3] 1228: Chapter 15 Employment.
[Triple Release 3/3] Jia Yan sighed inwardly, feeling that he still lacked calmness, a grave shortcoming for one of the Strong Ones!
However, he harbored no regret for rescuing the family of Auster people.
Even though his purpose in coming here was to confront the Auster Empire, he never intended for the empireâs civilians to perish.
Especially because this family reminded him of his own, and the perseverance shown by the young boy was vaguely familiar, prompting him to intervene.
âLord, thank you for your intervention,â the young boy, aware of Jia Yanâs formidable power that must have scared off a gang of robbers, quickly approached to express his gratitude.
âItâs nothing.
How is your family doing?
Have you checked on them?â Jia Yan waved his hand dismissively, considering the incident a minor episode that didnât even require him to expend any power.
âMy family is alright, though my sister was terrified.â
The boy turned around to see his three family members slowly regaining consciousness while his sister cried loudly.
âAlright, you should go and look after your family,â Jia Yan signaled the boy to leave.
With Jia Yanâs permission, the boy hurriedly went to tend to his family, clearly a child who valued familial bonds deeply.
Jia Yan started to walk around the living area.
His actions were only observed by the young boy, so the surrounding Auster people still thought he was an ordinary resident.
âYoung man over there, yes you!
Everyone is suffering, wonât you come over and help!â An elderly woman called out to Jia Yan.
âUh.â Jia Yan paused, then smiled and walked over to the woman.
It turned out that a group of people were trying to rescue a man buried under a collapsed building.
With the uncertainty of whether large machinery could still function and not knowing the extent of the manâs injuries from the attackers, they needed to act quickly or he might die.
Jia Yan approached and saw that everyone in the crowd was genuinely trying to help, not holding anything back.
However, the strongest among the group barely touched the margin of Earth Level strength; their combined efforts barely lifted the heavy debris a little.
When Jia Yan stepped forward, his arm on the debris,
âLetâs lift!
Everyone, put in more effort!â a man shouted excitedly.
Then, a massive chunk of the building wreckage was lifted by the crowd.
Of course, Jia Yan exerted the most strength discreetly, unnoticed by anyone.
âThank you all.â The man who was rescued appeared to be less injured than expected, and, being of Earth Level existence, he quickly joined in another rescue effort.
Jia Yan looked around in amazement at the residents he was among; it was evident they truly wished to help others.
âAlright, hereâs the list of deceased.
Even though the enemy retreated quickly, the casualties were still severe.â
After a tense rescue, a group of Auster people gathered.
A few individuals at the peak of Earth Level existence, forming a leadership group, convened a meeting.
Jia Yan was also among the crowd, calculating the numbers and discovered there were about ten thousand Auster people present, not counting those who died.
âAlright, although many of us have died, we must proceed as initially planned.
We need to send people to Management Star and report that this living space is viable; fifteen thousand of us have lived here for ten years without any abnormalities, and this project must receive central support!â
Jia Yan understood the situation from the discussions.
It turns out this so-called living area was an idea concocted by a group of scientists.
They constructed this massive living space which, although forgotten, proved viable over ten years.
When they tried applying for a larger population migration plan and more extensive project support, the interstellar star thieves attacked!
âWe must go and apply for this project as a large-scale pilot.
If successful, it could potentially spread the entire Auster Civilization throughout the stars, like sowing seeds in all directions.
What a wonderful idea, so no matter what, we must ensure this project is approved!â
âLast time our applications were all denied, and even if we go this time, it wonât be approved.
Moreover, we no longer have a candidate to go to Management Star; the journey requires passing through an asteroid field, fraught with danger and inhabited by some powerful Foreign Races and even our own interstellar wanderers and star thieves.
Recently, our living areaâs strongest Heaven-level existence, Lord Rukong, was killed in battle; who do we have strong enough to get through?â
The residents of the living area, all somewhat distressed.
In reality, they werenât just residents but the scientists of the entire living area, and only they had managed to live here for so many years without major incidents.
âLadies and gentlemen, I know a Lord whose power is formidable.â Just when all the residents seemed to be at a loss, a youthful voice rang out.
The crowd turned to look and saw the young boy who had fought bravely earlier stepping forward.
âXiao Heng, who are you talking about?
We know everyone in our living area.
Where did such a Strong One come from?â The residents were fond of the child, teasing him a bit.
âThis Lordâs strength must be sufficient; letâs hire him.â
The boy turned out to be the one Jia Yan had just saved, and at that moment, he pointed directly at Jia Yan.
It turned out that the child had been observing Jia Yan, the Strong One, in secret.
Although he knew that Jia Yan would be aware of it, he also believed that the Strong One wouldnât do anything to him.
Otherwise, why would he save these ten thousand and more people?
What he didnât know was that Jia Yanâs rescue was just a spontaneous act.
If something really crossed his desires, he wouldnât have any psychological burden in killing these ten thousand people, as they were merely from the Auster people after all.
Jia Yan was indeed in the crowd, and he did not expect that the boy would directly expose him.
He frowned slightly at this moment.
âHey, how come I have never seen this person before?
Although I canât remember all of the ten thousand people, I have absolutely no recollection of him.
Could he be a remainder of those star thieves?!â
The crowd, still frightened like birds startled by the mere twang of a bowstring at the mention of star thieves, suddenly paled and stepped back when they heard that Jia Yan could potentially be one.
Some even drew their weapons.
Jia, however, remained unfazed.
Of course, at his Realm, if ordinary firearms could still harm him, his long devotion to growing stronger would have been in vain.
âEveryone, donât worry, this Strong One is not a bad person.
The departure of the interstellar star thieves just now might have been helped by this Strong One,â the boy quickly jumped out.
It seemed the boy held some status among the residents of the living area, and at his words, they all calmed down and didnât make a move against Jia Yan.
Seeing that Jia Yan showed no signs of anger, the boy quickly explained to the residents nearby.
âSo you are such a formidable Strong One, thank you for rescuing our people in the living area.â
The people of the living area, although not very powerful themselves, were like scientists and had seen much of the world.
Listening to the boyâs description, they understood immediately and really believed that it might have been Jia Yan who had helped them.
âItâs nothing, I just acted on a whim.â Jia Yan looked around at the Auster people, his reason for still remaining here was just to see if the relationships here were genuine.
But seeing now, the people living here cared for one another, which slightly improved Jia Yanâs opinion of them.
Humans always yearn for beautiful things, and seeing a place with good interpersonal relationships makes one want to watch for a little longer.
But he did not expect that after a consultation among the leading figures of the living area, they came straight to Jia Yan with a direct request.
âLord, we request to employ you as a Guard.
Lead a team to the Management Star for us.
Once there, weâll allocate half of next yearâs budget to you!â
âManagement Star?â Jia Yan did not immediately refuse, nor was he surprised.
Since their discussion was hidden away, no word could escape Jia Yanâs ears.
âThatâs right, Management Star.
In our Auster Empire, every Starfield has a Management Star controlling and passing all the administrative matters.
Our living areaâs technological construction needs a larger budget from the Management Star to quickly become a project benefiting our Auster Empire.
We hope, Lord, that you can help us.â
At this point, it seemed the surrounding people considered Jia Yan as one of the Auster people and continuously pleaded with him.
âBy the way, Iâve heard that something recently happened on the Management Star.
They warned us to beware of a supposed Earth messenger from the Ru Lan Empire, claiming to be a Heaven-level existence.
Additionally, theyâve set up a dreadful weapon on the Management Star in our Starfield, supposedly to counter that Strong One.
If you donât help us, itâs possible that when that Strong One appears, he will kill us all.
Save us completely, please help us!â
A figure who seemed like a top official of the entire living area kept making appeals to Jia Yan.
Although he couldnât see how powerful Jia Yan was, the aura of a Strong One was recognizable.
He hadnât noticed Jia Yanâs strong aura before, but after the boy mentioned Jia Yanâs strength, he began to perceive it more and more, realizing Jia Yanâs immense power.
Now he used the big hat of protecting the future of the Auster Empire to press for Jia Yanâs agreement to protect him.
Of course, this high official was mistaken; Jia Yan was not one of the Auster people.
But Jia Yan was momentarily taken aback by the high officialâs words.
âA special weapon to counter the âEarth messengerâ?
InterestingâŠâ A glint flashed in his eyes.
âAlright, I accept your request!â
