Chapter 231 The Tumultuous Times in the Capital (7)

Big Rat: "Yes, boss!"

"Is this a rat?"

Liu Lang couldn't reconcile the "research mouse" in front of him with the mouse that was larger than other fish species before, and he couldn't believe that it was the same mouse.

"It doesn't look like it at all."

Rat Big gave Liu Lang a very human-like look, and then said, "If I'm not Rat Big, then who is? You little ones, come out here."

As soon as Rat Big finished speaking, the members of the Rat Squad appeared in front of him and stood in neat rows.

Looking at the scene before him, Liu Lang felt a sense of déjà vu.

Previously, because this was inside the Chengehu Cave Heaven space, he hadn't used his mental power to carefully observe the existence of the surrounding rat team.

He was still a little unaccustomed to seeing them all suddenly appear in front of him.

He had previously thought that An Qingyu was the only person here.

Big Mouse: "Rat Squad, all assembled."

Liu Lang looked at Rat Da, whose black-rimmed glasses and white coat seemed out of place with his current demeanor, and said, "He's starting to look somewhat like him now..."

"What do you mean by similar? It is exactly like that."

Liu Lang looked at An Qingyu and asked, "Was Rat like this before, or did it become like this after its intelligence was enhanced?"

An Qingyu shrugged. "As you can see."

"Hmm...very unique, I like it."

"I'm glad you like it. All the 'forbidden stones' you asked me for before are ready. Rat will take you there later. There will be more than you need."

Forbidden Stone.

It was prepared by Liu Lang for those who cultivated using the forbidden artifacts developed by An Qingyu.

Those who cultivate using forbidden artifacts developed by An Qingyu can cultivate much faster than those born with forbidden artifacts, depending on their compatibility with the artifacts.

However, compared to those who are born with forbidden realms, breaking through to higher realms is not as easy.

Breaking through to a higher realm is almost three times more difficult than for someone born with forbidden realms.

The forbidden item was something that An Qingyu had specially extracted from the mysterious corpse that Liu Lang had brought him, in order to reduce the difficulty of their breakthrough.

Furthermore, it can also improve the progress of their cultivation of spiritual power, given that their cultivation speed is already very fast.

It cannot be called a panacea.

The effect is somewhat similar to the "spirit stones" in the cultivation novels Liu Lang read in his previous life.

So they named it the "Forbidden Stone".

......

Jingtao Building, the control room of "Hot-Blooded Fighting Arena".

Lei, dressed in an office lady outfit, looked at the large screen in front of him, where various data related to "Hot-Blooded Fighting Arena" were being gathered from all over the Great Xia.

She exudes a capable and efficient aura, even stronger than a white-collar worker who has been in the workplace for over ten years.

"How much buzz has there been about the Hot-Blooded Fighting Arena since it was announced?" Lei Yingdian asked calmly, his face expressionless.

Nasita, as the overall commander of this project and the mastermind behind numerous experts in computers and journalism, summarized everything in her mind after reviewing all the data.

He then said, "President Lei, as of now, trending topics and news about our Jingtao Building have covered the entire country of China."

Furthermore, offline promotions, combined with endorsements from major companies, have been thoroughly rolled out, and related promotions and outreach have also been implemented in rural areas and some economically underdeveloped cities.

We've ensured that everyone in the Great Xia, regardless of age or gender, knows about our upcoming unrestricted fighting game, "Hot-Blooded Fighting Arena."

“Okay.” Lei Yingdian nodded. “Now that we’ve built up enough anticipation, the next step is to convince everyone in the Great Xia that the prize money for this variety show will actually be awarded… How’s the credibility building going?”

"The credibility is backed by major enterprises in Daxia. Although not everyone believes it, at least 70% of those who know about this news believe it. Moreover, most of those with the ability have chosen to sign up. Among the sign-ups are students, veterans, security guards, fitness instructors, and even some Taoist priests registered with the Daxia Taoist Association."

"What we want is for more people to know about this and want to participate in it, so that the whole country knows about it." Lei Yingdian said while instructing, "The regional competitions in each region should start preparing now. In a week, I want all the regional competitions across the country to start the preliminary rounds simultaneously. The regional competitions will be conducted in a no-holds-barred format, and the specific requirements will follow the normal competition rules."

“Isn’t a week a bit too fast?” commented a news expert next to Nasita.

"Even with this kind of massive publicity campaign, given the normal speed of news dissemination, we still can't make everyone in the country know about our news, believe it's true, and ultimately compress the registration period to just one week!"

"At this rate, let alone the conversion rate from casual visitors, we probably won't even reach our initial target threshold..."

Nasida glanced at the expert. "The conventional theory certainly won't work, but what if we keep throwing money at it?"

"This..." The expert hesitated for a moment, "Although it is possible to do so, the credibility gained by throwing money at it is sufficient, but if this number is placed on a national scale, it would probably be an astronomical figure."

"I don't care how much it costs, can you do it?" Lei asked decisively. "Money is not a problem. Our group lacks everything except money."

Nasita nodded. "No problem."

The expert nodded blankly as well, "The team leader is right."

"Then we'll do it this way. One week. You only have one week, understand?"

"Know!"
