Chapter 712: Chapter 418: Against the Tide of Time, Candela Empire!_3

Hence, there are numerous orphanages in the Empire, but the ’Sunlight’ Orphanage where Fang You resides is quite special—it is a cultivation orphanage!

To call it an orphanage isn’t wrong, as it takes in underage orphans.

But Fang You feels it’s more like a school, accepting boys and girls of a certain age who have been detected with cultivation talents from other basic orphanages.

And cultivating these youngsters until they turn 18 and officially enter society is the duty of the director—his own job.

"Hmm, it can be understood as a middle school for commoners."

"However, although it’s a school for commoners, the welfare treatment is quite high: unlimited supply of basic Tempering Body Liquid and Spirit Nourishing Liquid, a complete system of high-tier liquids, matching cultivation methods, fitting Awakening Ceremony formations... and so on."

Some of the effects of the liquids seem to be stronger than those mass-produced by their operation.

Now, these sets of amenities are considered the lowest tier in the Candela Empire. However, it’s evident that the Candela Empire places great importance on nurturing the younger generation.

"That’s also true, after all, Candela has spent a fortune constructing one trial ground after another."

"If the orphanage is like a middle school, then the trial grounds are like universities... only, there’s no information related to the trial grounds among the ones I’ve received."

The information he has received mostly details the duties of the director.

Although he’s called a director, in reality, he’s just a worker, combining ’teaching,’ ’management,’ ’supervision,’ and so on in a multifaceted role.

There aren’t many genuine living staff in the whole orphanage!

After all, the higher positions in the orphanage are undesirable to high-class talents, and as for the common workers... the orphanage doesn’t even consider them.

Even without a single living staff member, the orphanage operates as usual.

Because there are instructor puppets, doctor puppets, chef puppets, security puppets, etc., and the only living workers truly necessary are the high-level instructors.

Hmm, after pondering for a while, Fang You realized that all other workers are part-time, only working during set hours, and at most, three days a week. Only he, as the director, is full-time, with his entire life rooted here.

"However, I have nowhere else to go, and this is quite nice."

He did have thoughts about going outside to see the Candela Empire of this era with his own eyes, and to sneak a visit to the trial grounds by the way.

Yet, as expected, it’s not possible.

Just like the first ’Birth of a Fire Seed’ instance, his activity area is limited, only within the scope of the orphanage—an orphanage with grounds comparable to a university campus.

Upon returning to the director’s office, Fang You looked at the device on the table, which resembled a globe.

"This seems to be a device for receiving information? Just like a smartphone in modern society."

Only, it needs to be driven by Spirit force.

He diffused his Spirit force gently and reached in.

Instantly, with a "clank," a phantom interface appeared in front of him.

’Heavenly Pillar No. 4, Steel Pillar, has announced the official release of the God-Demon Grade Puppet Guardian Dragon v1.0. This puppet will take on numerous important security tasks.’

’The governor of Yunxia Province has announced that welfare benefits for orphanages will be increased to attract more High-Tier Awakeners to work there.’

’Six-star celebrity Feng Nan is set to hold a concert in Glowing City, and tickets are highly sought after.’

’The most beautiful idol group has officially debuted, each member appearing as if a fairy has descended.’

After examining for a while, Fang You could only conclude that it was ’not bad.’

What he meant was, the news itself was not bad, but it lacked the information he wanted to know. It seemed like the Candela Empire was calm and peaceful? However, the news wasn’t plentiful, and most of it was related to the local area of Glowing City. News involving regions outside Yunxia Province was few and far between.

The technology was advanced, but not as overwhelmingly so with information overload as before the mysterious arrival at Blue Star.

"And besides, this news is clearly aimed at the general public. If there was any real fuss, it wouldn’t be casually broadcast here... but, this device seems to have a hidden feature?"

No, it’s an advanced mode.

By switching the activated Spirit force with Divine Thought, one can access a network beyond the reach of ordinary people, a place like... uh, a mythical forum."

He felt like quibbling, but after a glance, his expression tightened, and his gaze locked onto it.

’Last month, two kingdoms were destroyed, related to the spread of darkness.’

’What is there to fear? Our Candela Empire is a symbol of light. We live under the protection of light; mere darkness and filth will be purified in the face of true light. Remember how those dark deities once aimed for Candela and what happened to them, heh.’

’It seems that a true god has fallen.’

’Those faith-based gods? They fall from grace or even perish if they lose their supply of faith, it’s normal. We’ve been saying that the way of faith isn’t effective.’

’No, it was an Ancient God, the grand and supreme ’God of Three Aspects’ has fallen. The reason is still unclear.’

’I’ve heard a rumor that the guardian deity of the westernmost ancient nation, Silver Moon, the ’Silver Moon Goddess,’ has also perished, and apparently not due to the Ancient God Wars.’

’We in the Candela Empire don’t need gods; whether they live or die doesn’t matter to us.’

The speaker was clearly deity-like, possessing knowledge of many secrets.

Unfortunately, with only text and no pictures or videos, the credibility of these words is questionable.

Well, time will tell. He’ll slowly find out.

For now, he needs to become familiar with the orphanage. Losing the job there would probably mean losing the anchor and being forced to exit the instance.

That won’t do at all.

The forlorn Director Fang sighed.

At that moment, the sound of "ding ding ding" signaled an alert, and a stern-faced woman pushed the door open:

"Director, we have a new batch of children."
