I Have Awakened The Deduction System

As she narrated, He Chuan gradually understood what Lin Ya meant by the three strategies.

The first two were easy to understand. While the awakened were in charge of the attack, they would also develop magic cannons as defensive tools to assist in the fight against the beast tide.

The last one was a little more complicated. To put it simply, the beast tide didn't come all at once. Instead, it was divided into many waves. The timing was uncertain, and the quantity was uncertain.

Since it was such an invasion pattern, they could accumulate resources in the battle as the defenders.

For example, they could sell beast meat to Freedom City in exchange for gold coins, and then buy military supplies and even defensive weapons!

As long as they could do that, it would become easier and easier to defend in the future.

However, the beginning was always the hardest. Putting aside how to deal with the first batch of strange beasts, the city didn't have any awakened ones needed for the first step.

That's right, not a single one!

If it were any other city, an awakened one wouldn't be a particularly rare existence.

After all, the recovery of spiritual energy had been going on for dozens of years. Although the cultivation technique wasn't complete, there were quite a few people who had successfully awakened.

Otherwise, the strange beasts would have long occupied the territory where humans lived.

However, the current situation in Glory City was the awakened ones weren't willing to come to this place that was considered a dead city to die.

This also made the first step very difficult to carry out.

Without the awakened ones, there was no way to form a vanguard force that could threaten the beast tide.

If the beast tide rushed directly to the city, even if magic cannons were developed, the shells wouldn't be able to cover it.

Lin Ya made a suggestion.

Near Glory City, there was a dojo that operated in a gray area.

They used a medicine called "Hanshi Powder" to stimulate the human body's potential. Together with the guidance technique, they could cultivate in a state similar to awakening.

Such people were called pseudo-awakened.

The difference between awakened and pseudo-awakened was that the awakened had innate special abilities. They could either control fire or create frost, but the latter didn't.

Even so, the pseudo-awakened possessed extremely powerful physical combat strength and could fight head-on with strange beasts.

As long as they bought the Hanshi Powder and obtained the guidance technique from the dojo, a large batch of pseudo-awakened would appear in the city to strengthen its defenses.

However, Hanshi Powder was considered a prohibited drug in the country. Not only was it prohibited from being sold, but it was also challenging to obtain.

The price had always been high in the black market. The current state of the city's treasury was simply unable to afford it.

Lin Ya had no other choice at this point.

These problems were not things that she could handle. She could only hand them to He Chuan, the City Lord, to handle.

He Chuan thought for a while but was not in a hurry to solve these strategic difficulties.

Instead, he pulled Lin Ya and asked her some more questions about martial artists.

To him, these were even more crucial.

Perhaps he could find clues to perfect the Tyrannical True Cultivation Manual.

Unfortunately, he was disappointed.

Lin Ya knew very little about this.

She only combined some of the information she had heard from Lin Cheng with the knowledge she had obtained from the braille book and came up with a hypothesis.

She didn't know precisely what the awakened system in this world was like.

Lin Cheng did not know either.

He was not awakened and had never left Glory City. His knowledge of the outside world was limited and he could not help He Chuan.

He Chuan had no choice but to deal with the current matter first.

He was short of money...

He did not know how the people who went to Freedom City were doing...

Where would the rebate come from if they did not bring back the money?

He Chuan shook his head.

This matter couldn't be rushed.

He could only wait slowly.

Wait for the opportunity to come one day and make him rich in one go!

This was the only way to continue the plan.

Thus, two days later, the day was still going on smoothly.

However, the strange beasts outside Glory City roared more frequently. It seemed that the food in the mountain forest was harder to find. As a result, those dangerous existences began to stir and had the idea of hunting the creatures in the city.

The beast tide might arrive soon.

The militia went out more cautiously.

Everyone was very nervous.

They were afraid that the battle horn would sound at the next moment.

It was also at this time that the hunters who went to Freedom City to trade returned!

Chief of Staff, Xu Ke, came to report at the first moment.

The wealthy merchants in Freedom City were very generous, and when they heard that the merchant team was assigned by He Chuan, they directly used their connections to increase the price of the military supplies and sold them to the two neighboring countries that were at war.

The profits were extremely bountiful. However, because the merchants had taken 20% and they suffered losses on the way, they only got a little more than 60%.

Even so, they still filled up the treasury that was lacking money at the moment.

With such a large sum of money, the original plan could be started.

Immediately, Lin Cheng ordered his troops to prepare to look for the dojo in the gray area.

"I don't know if this counts as a rebate. If it doesn't count, then there should be more profits in the future."

Before he left, He Chuan suddenly thought of this problem.

The loss on the road and the merchant's share should count as his loss. Logically speaking, he should be able to trigger a rebate.

However, by selling it to a neighboring country, it was already a huge profit. The transaction price far exceeded the market price, and it was even more than the rebate from before!

It didn't make sense!

He might as well ignore it.

Perhaps he would gain something from this trip?

What he needed to consider now was the expedition.

p It was very likely that it would attract the attention of the strange beasts.

However, according to Lin Cheng, it would be fine after they walked out of this forest.

Further away was a natural gobi desert. The environment was extreme, even strange beasts rarely set foot there.

As long as they reached there, they could basically march freely without any worries.

Hence, under He Chuan's orders.

The army was split into dozens of batches and dispersed out of the city. At that time, they would gather at the designated location.
