Chapter 346

~8 min read 1,440 words

The vole's face beside him was about to twist out of shape.

As the first person to follow Lin An, he knew the little girl before him was deeply "favored" by Lin An.

Even when walking, he had to hold her!

This relationship is definitely not ordinary!

Seeing the chance to leave a good impression being snatched by Kosman, he felt anger welling up from all sides.

Who knows if, upon seeing Lin An, Mo Ling will mention Kosman saying 'You are Your Majesty'?

Then Kosman would rely on this alertness to successfully leave a good impression in Lin An's heart?

A thousand-mile dike is destroyed by an ant hole!

Although using it is not appropriate, it is nevertheless a true portrayal of the vole's inner feelings.

After all, Kosman is a genuine high-level figure of the Bolaka Safe Zone.

To control the Safe Zone, his assistance is indispensable.

And I am merely a driver...

Like vying for favor, the vole waved his hand, signaling the arriving troops to clear the area, to prevent the news from leaking out now.

Hundreds of Kosman's elite warriors rushed out, lifting her onto a stretcher in Anna's stunned gaze.

"Miss Anna, Your Highness Mo Ling."

The vole's eyes darted around, and he repeatedly urged:

"His Majesty Lin An is waiting for you inside the palace; please come with me!"

The two little lolis who had just awakened in the room were also surrounded.

In the midst of fearful gazes, Kosman's thoughts raced, signaling to send them together.

Tied up, a loli, and you still like having so many people together?

Could this be His Majesty Lin An's hobby?

As if he had thought of something.

Before escorting Mo Ling and the others into the vehicle, Kosman pulled aside his confidant and whispered a few words carefully.

Afterward, he followed the vole into the vehicle with an excited expression.

It's just a loli, isn't it!

Yes! There are plenty!

I'll mobilize the whole city to find them! I don't believe we can't find what His Majesty Lin An likes!

Just thinking that perhaps his meticulous discovery would earn His Majesty Lin An's praise, Kosman's heart pounded with excitement, unable to restrain himself.

Charging forward!

To curry favor with those above, what is most important!?

Figure out the preferences of those above!

Strangely, Lin An probably never imagined that he would be seen as a loli-con.

In the luxurious stretch car, Mo Ling spoke without expression:

"Has Lin An taken care of it?"

Sitting in the front, clearing the way, Kosman pricked up his ears, his mind racing.

All that could be heard was the travel mouse nodding and laughing from the heart as he said:

"Your Highness, Emperor Lin An has already ruled over all of Bolaka."

"He is currently discussing matters with his ministers."

Mo Ling heard this, wrinkled their nose, not excited at all, but rather somewhat complained:

"How can it be so slow?"

"Didn't you say it would take an hour?"

"I'm so hungry my stomach feels flat."

After hearing this, the travel mouse gave an embarrassed laugh and dared not reply.

He couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead.

Goodness.

"Taking down Bolaka in less than six hours, and you still call that slow!?"

Especially during these six hours, five of them were spent waiting.

The actual time spent in action was less than ten minutes...

For a moment, the travel mouse felt a surge of absurdity welling up in his heart.

Just what background do these people have...

"Taking a Safe Zone and ruling over a million people is said as easily as me going out to dig up an ant nest."

Costman and the driver sitting in the front row exchanged a terrified glance, feeling cold sweat cover their bodies.

"The original plan was one hour!?"

Just thinking of Lin An's unbelievable strength made him feel it wasn't strange at all.

That speed was so fast that bullets couldn't hit him, and with a raise of his hand he instantly killed nearly a thousand soldiers.

Perhaps if he truly went all out, maybe in the time it takes me to use the restroom, Emperor Lin An could have slaughtered the entire imperial palace.

He could tell from Mo Ling's tone that there was no pretense, as if they genuinely had a little disdain for Lin An's efficiency.

"Good heavens, could it be that Emperor Lin An is still hiding his strength!?"

Suddenly, Costman felt that everything was so surreal.

"As for the travel mouse's saying that Emperor Lin An was discussing matters with his ministers?"

Eh, if anyone dares to talk back and gets their head blown off, that also counts as a discussion, right?

Beside the spacious rear seat, Anna blinked her eyes wide with astonishment, the shock in her heart indescribable.

What's going on?

After I fainted out of the blue, did Bolaka's situation change?

Am I dreaming?

Isn't Bolaka the ruler of this Safe Zone? How did it become Lin An?

Not knowing Lin An's name, Anna gazed at the crowd along the way, her heart pounding with fear.

Everything remains as before; no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a war happened.

If Bolaka really staged a coup, there should be some traces, right?

Under the drug's effect and her coma, she only vaguely remembered that before passing out she seemed to have seen a very handsome man.

As for what she did, she can't remember.

On the rear leather seat, Lin Ruolan was also brought along in the car.

Last night, she had already changed clothes and taken a shower.

With a little grooming, aside from her poor skin, her features made her a refined urban beauty.

Unlike Anna and the two little girls, who were terrified out of ignorance, she only felt as if she were dreaming.

Who is Lin An? How could she not know?

Although she had witnessed Lin An's strange moves, that kind of ability was completely beyond comprehension.

But under habitual thinking, she had never considered what Lin An actually wanted to do.

Lin Ruolan glanced blankly out the window, feeling that this world was so unfamiliar.

No matter who told her that upon waking, the man she had met a day earlier had become a regional leader, and only a few hours later.

Nobody could believe it.

The brief two-day experience left her somewhat dazed.

The shock of it was no less than that of the day of the catastrophe...

Upon the throne, Lin An tapped the armrest with his fingertips, lost in thought.

Below, a sea of heads lay bowed on the ground, none daring to lift them.

The reason was simple: Zhang Tie had just choked a few senior officers to death.

"Lin Dui, the city-wide information has been roughly tallied."

"The next issue is how to control this Safe Zone and plan the subsequent strategy."

Gao Tian brought a few high-ranking officials forward with an urgently compiled report, then patiently awaited Lin An's reply.

His heart felt somewhat stirred.

Although it was a dungeon world, this was still the first time he had stood so 'high'.

After a quick glance, he digested the information from the Awakened Ones' transcendent memory in no time.

"Is this their suggestion?"

His voice showed no emotional fluctuation; Lin An calmly gazed at Gao Tian.

After hearing Lin An's question, Gao Tian hesitated a moment, then nodded and added:

"Lin Dui, they gave three options; I skimmed them and they seem decent."

"First, keep the existing government; all of Bolaka's high-ranking officials will serve us, allowing us to deploy troops against other forces shortly."

"Second, purge Bolaka's diehard loyalists; this will take some time."

"Third, conceal the coup news, pretend Bolaka remains the ruler in name, to prevent troops stationed abroad from the Bolaka Safe Zone from rebelling..."

"The relationship between nobles and slaveholders inside the city is tangled; to consolidate power we must rely on their help."

No sooner had he spoken than Gao Tian noticed a flicker of disappointment in Lin An's eyes.

"Lin Dui..."

"What's wrong with these proposals?"

Gao Tian's heart tightened; he thought the first and third options were actually the best.

Fewest deaths, highest efficiency, convenient...

Rule.

But for some reason, he kept feeling as if he had done something wrong.

In the silence, Lin An slowly rose to his feet, his gaze turning toward the outside of the palace.

"Gao Tian, do you still remember what you told me that day?"

"This world is utterly rotten."

"Therefore."

"Kill them all."

"I don't need to rule them."
