Chapter 333: Chapter 286: The Dean’s Trip and Blue Star Industrial Planning (Two in One)_3

The robust Dean of War Song followed up, saying, "If that’s the case, Sword Flower should send a few more envoys. If the scale of cooperation escalates, little Matissa won’t be able to handle it alone."

"Speaking of which, I myself am quite curious about Dawn District. It might as well be me who takes the trip, just using a Strange Implement to create a proxy avatar."

The strategic decision was made in just a few words.

It left the Dean of Sword slightly helpless. Was he to man Sword Flower alone?

Fortunately, the presences of Rose and War Song were there, so if anything came up, they could still be woken.

"That being so, the sooner we start preparing, the better."

...

...

Blue Star, Shui Ze base city.

Seeing Matissa getting ready to return to her lodgings for some rest, a certain instructor withdrew his gaze.

"Not bad. It looks like Matissa’s visit went smoothly, and she even persuaded the two deans to come."

No matter what the initial intentions of Dean Rose or Dean War Song were, once they got to Blue Star, they wouldn’t want to leave—cough cough—he meant to say, they would surely be reluctant to leave.

Xin Huo already had various special products that could attract attention even from the Six Senses Throne.

In addition, with gourmet food and clothing among an array of modern industries, the appeal was ample. Just like the City of Sword Flower, which values noble etiquette and pays particular attention to apparel and manners.

But the Sword Flower Oasis was only so big, with limited raw materials. Trading with other Great Oases wasn’t easy either, restricted by material and personnel constraints. In his view, the clothing from Sword Flower was just so-so.

The styles and design concepts from Blue Star could leave Sword Flower in the dust.

"Clothing and food might not generate as much revenue as high-grade mysterious artifacts, but if they could bring in steady income over time, Xin Huo would have a sustainable revenue stream, chiefly because the costs are low."

"Should the day come when Blue Star’s restaurants can be opened throughout all the oases, that would be a beautiful thing indeed."

"Besides that, there’s also livestock, specifically those bred for reproduction."

The powers of the oases were either seeds of civilization that fled from devoured worlds, or they were family powers that had split off from other oases... Of course, it is said that even deeper within the Ghastly Realm, there are native humans and other fantastical creatures.

For the seeds of civilization to cross the perilous Strange Realm District, any survivors would suffer heavy casualties, let alone livestock.

More likely, by the time the surviving elites had the capability to migrate, the world would have been almost entirely eroded. Survivors were rare, and animals even rarer.

At most, some plant seeds would be preserved.

"But Blue Star, we’ve always strived to stabilize order, saving as many species as possible before the Tide of Gray Mist arrived... Not all of them could be saved, but most of them were, including pigs, cows, sheep, which we have in abundance."

"We’ve managed to retain the diversity of species. Now the problem is the lack of enough breeding grounds."

In their Secret Realm, Xin Huo had constructed a series of special breeding farms.

They bred pigs, cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, geese, freshwater and saltwater fish, and also preserved various rare species. Inside one bamboo garden, several giant pandas lived a comfortable life, often fed and petted by passing Xin Huo members.

However, space within the Secret Realm was limited, and even more so in the only two base cities outside the Secret Realm.

Of course, other base cities under construction, as well as large-scale farms abroad, had also retained many animals. These places, however, didn’t lie under the protection of Dawn’s Light; Ghastly Beings often arose, and even with elite warriors stationed there, they couldn’t prevent the occasional massacre of a large number of animals.

Breeding farms, farms.

They were currently lacking.

"Livestock is also in high demand in the oases, but at the moment Blue Star itself is in need. The area of a single Dawn base city may be larger than a Great Oasis, but it also houses a population far greater than any Great Oasis."

"Currently, we’re relying on food storage from Blue Star’s past to sustain us."

"In the future, if we manage to construct a dozen or more gigantic base cities, along with the crop seeds improved by Liu Chang, we might still... still not have enough! The base cities themselves are packed with people, leaving too little space for farming."

If Ghastly Beings were edible, then perhaps they could meet their food needs through ’hunting’.

But that wasn’t the case.

They could only hope for Liu Chang to continually improve crop seeds to boost yields, and furthermore...

"If I’m not mistaken, once Blue Star’s defensive perimeter is completely built, we should have some areas where the Gray Mist can gradually disperse, bringing sunlight back to humanity."

"No, no need to wait for the defensive perimeter to be fully established. Maybe, once Dong Huang Country builds five base cities and sets up the core defense circle, we could start restoring some areas to ’low-risk zones.’

"At that point, research and acquisition of rituals that promote livestock breeding to expand the scale of breeding would enable animal husbandry to become a pillar industry of Blue Star."

The following day, the Blue Star World conference was held as scheduled.

During the meeting, the future direction of Blue Star was discussed.

The two main strategic plans at present were the ’Dawn Base City Project’ and the ’Doomsday Ark’ project, proposed by the leader of District 51.

But there were few takers.

There’s no helping it. The Dawn base city was a proven success, visible to all, while there wasn’t even a shell to see for the Doomsday Ark project.

The choice between the two was obvious.
