After turning on the communication equipment, Nebula’s face immediately appeared. There was a worried expression on his face at first, but after seeing Fang Yun, that expression immediately disappeared.
“Master Ouroboros.”
Nebula exclaimed loudly. He then took a deep breath, converging his excitement, and said,
“Master Ouroboros, I just wanted to greet you.”
“Just talk about it, what do you want from me this time?”
Fang Yun was unwilling to engage in these small talks, so he asked Nebula straightforwardly.
Hearing that, Nebula paused then said
“My lord, it’s not a big deal. Like I just said…You’ve been away for a while, I just wanted to contact you.”
Hearing this, Fang Yun was a little speechless. It turned out to be for this reason. He thought something had happened.
He also knew why Nebula was so affectionate. There is the factor of emotional entanglement, but the most important reason is that his existence can allow the nine heavens/Metaverse to survive in this compet.i.tive and dangerous universe.
“How about the people who have entered the Gray Mist organization?”
Fang Yun thought they have already connected, so he might as well ask about the situation of the geniuses who headed to the gray mist organization.
This plan was originally proposed by him, and it’s critical for the growth of the Metaverse, so he is quite concerned about it.
“My Excellency, the people who went to the Gray Mist Organization’ are doing well. We have also sent more people there, so the number of our people in the Gray Mist organization is about 300 now.”
“Huh?” Fang Yun was shocked by Nebula’s words. He did not expect them to send so many people to the “Gray Mist Organization”. This is a risky endeavor.
Originally, he thought that Nebula and the others would be satisfied with the number of people that have already joined the organization. He didn’t expect them to make such a risky move.
“My lord, a complete official academy system has been established. We have also produced many domain masters. We can now afford to send so many people to the Gray Mist organization.”
As if seeing Fang Yun’s doubts, Nebula immediately explained it to him.
After a moment of silence, Fang Yun nodded and said,
“You did a good job. By the way, what did these geniuses achieve after entering the Gray Mist organization?”
Hearing Fang Yun talking about business, Nebula’s face straightened up. He pondered for a moment, then seriously replied.
“After they entered the Gray Mist Organization’, they basically worked for the high-level people inside.”
“The Grey Mist Organization’ will issue a large number of tasks from time to time. Members are free to choose whether to accept these tasks or not. However, there are corresponding task quotas every month. If the members can’t reach those quotas, they must pay some remuneration. If they can’t reach the quotas many times in a row, they might get kicked out of the organization.”
“How about the casualties over there now?” Fang Yun asked randomly.
Hearing this, Nebula had a solemn expression on his face.
“That casualty rate is still very high. About 15% to 20%”
Speaking of this, Nebula’s face looked much darker. All of the people that he sent to the Gray Mist organization are young and vigorous geniuses. Unfortunately, they died due to his orders.
“Yeah.” Fang Yun responded indifferently,
“How is your overall strength now? Has Luo Feng made a breakthrough?”
Knowing that Fang Yun still had Luo Feng in his mind, Nebula was surprised and delighted. The relationship between the two is extraordinary, like father and son, so the fact that Fang Yun was concerned about Luo Feng delighted him.
“My lord, Luo Feng’s strength is now stronger than ever. The overall strength of our league has been greatly improved.”
Nebula replied with a smile.
“The only problem is that the friction between us and the small nearby countries has become more and more frequent recently. I am afraid that it will not take long before another war begins.”
Nebula’s expression was a little dignified. In his opinion, the Metaverse should focus more on cultivating and growing, so he is fine with peace. As long as those empires don’t take the initiative to attack, he is fine with the small skirmishes at the borders.
However, the friction is getting bigger and bigger recently. He suspects that there is something behind this mess. Unfortunately, they haven’t found any suspect for the moment.
“Well, I got it.”
Fang Yun wasn’t worried. Since Nebula said that it’s not a big problem, then it shouldn’t be a big problem. Anyway, even if they go to war, he can’t help them for now.
“You all be careful. I plan to travel outside for a while. When the time is ripe, I will come back.”
Fang Yun promised Nebula that he would definitely go back because there is a turbulent s.p.a.ce gate there. That is the only path back home that he found, naturally he will go back to it.
