Chapter 1176 Extraordinary Population
Long Ying was slightly taken aback: "Really?"
“Of course it’s true.” Ye Ge’s lips curled into a knowing smile. “This is probably a trick your grandfather, the First Emperor, had when he ordered the construction of the Great Wall.”
Long Ying frowned slightly, her face full of confusion: "I, as the Empress of Qin, don't even know about this. How could you know?"
"..." Night Song thought to herself: 'Because I'm a player...'
"In short, we must hurry before the Guangli Formation completely collapses."
His slender fingers precisely pointed to several key nodes of the Great Wall on the holographic map: "Right here at the seven array eyes of the Great Wall, I plan to use the power of the Azure Dragon Seven Constellations to create a barrier that is even more stable than the Light Dawn Array."
“…Alright.” Long Ying pondered for a moment, then nodded decisively. “Then let’s do it your way. Whatever you need, I’ll notify the department to approve it for you and give you the green light.”
“That’s perfect,” Ye Ge said. “I need at least 300,000 magic-type extraordinary beings, whose level must be above the Heavenly Realm. I also need to gather magic-type extraordinary beings of the twelve attributes: metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, ice, sound, light, darkness, and void. There must be at least 5,000 of each attribute to help me build the barrier.”
Long Ying froze instantly, her beautiful face filled with disbelief and astonishment. "Three hundred thousand magic-based extraordinary beings? Above the Heavenly Realm? And they have to gather all twelve attributes?? How is this possible??"
Even if you turned the entire human race upside down, you probably still couldn't gather them all, right?
Moreover, it must also include the three rare attributes of light, darkness, and void...
These three categories make it impossible for the Sex Empire to find five thousand people...
Let alone five thousand.
This rare quality is so unique that you probably couldn't find one in a thousand across the entire country!
Long Ying couldn't believe it. What kind of formation was Ye Ge planning to create that would require so many people?
Ye Ge's smile remained unchanged, tinged with a hint of mischief: "Who said it's impossible?"
"Have you forgotten?" Long Ying sighed softly, "Our Great Qin Empire has a population of about seven or eight billion, but the awakening rate of superhumans is less than one in a thousand! That means that the entire human race has at most only a little over seven million superhuman warriors..."
"Of these seven million superhuman warriors, low-level superhumans make up about 70%..."
"So there are probably only about one million people who can meet your requirements."
Long Ying smiled wryly: "Among the human race's extraordinary individuals, martial artists are the majority. Out of these one million people, magic-based professions probably only account for about one hundred thousand, let alone gathering five thousand rare attributes..."
Ye Ge reached out and pinched Long Ying's little face: "My Majesty, how long has it been since the Empire conducted a census of the human race? This data is from so long ago!"
Long Ying was slightly taken aback.
"Have you forgotten?" Ye Ge smiled and said slowly, "Yu Li had already developed the Awakening Potion eight years ago."
“Oh yeah…” Long Ying thought for a moment, “But even so, I’m afraid we still can’t gather 500,000 magic users, right?”
Ye Ge didn't say anything, but simply raised her hand and brought up another holographic data panel: "Take a look for yourself."
When Long Ying saw the transparent data statistics panel in front of her, she immediately looked surprised and incredulous.
According to DeepBlue System statistics, the current total human population is 7,200,152,008 (72 billion).
【当前超凡者人口数量：633，613，376人（6亿3）】
[Percentage of extraordinary individuals in the population: 8.8%]
"8.8%!?!"
Long Ying exclaimed in astonishment: "Our population of extraordinary individuals has actually increased so much in just eight years?!"
This ratio is almost comparable to that of powerful races such as demons, dragons, fallen angels, and giants, which rank extremely high among all races!
"This is the power of inexpensive potions." Night Song's tone was calm yet contained power: "Although there are still more low-level extraordinary beings among these 600 million extraordinary beings, it shouldn't be a problem to gather 500,000 magic-type beings."
"...If that's the case, then it is true." Long Ying looked at the shocking numbers, her face a mixture of shock and complexity.
Although she had heard before that the number of superhumans in the human population had increased to a certain extent in recent years, and that the number of students enrolled in the various branches of the War Academy had increased every year.
But she didn't look at the specific numbers.
Upon closer inspection, it became clear that the situation had escalated to such a terrifying degree!
“I had no idea that my empire had such a large population of superhumans,” Long Ying sighed softly. “I am truly an incompetent empress.”
“It’s not your fault,” Ye Ge said.
After all, accurate population statistics are a rarity in this world.
“However, there is still one problem,” Long Ying said. “Setting up such a large-scale formation is extremely expensive. Given the vast size of the empire, it will probably require a very large amount of soul stones.”
Night Song: "Money is the least of our worries. Do you know how rich your husband is now?"
Long Ying shook her head blankly.
Night Song: "That's about enough to buy four or five of the current human empires."
Long Ying: "???"
Ye Ge smiled slightly.
Among all the transmigrators, he, as a player who has only been here for a little over a decade, may not be the strongest at present, but he is definitely the best at making money.
"Where...where did you get so much money?" Long Ying's eyes were filled with shock and confusion.
“You underestimate the money-making potential of the Deep Blue System,” Night Song said.
The Ultimate Supreme Membership version of the Deep Blue System costs 1000 million Myriad Races Gold Coins, while the Platinum Membership version costs 500 million Myriad Races Gold Coins...
But actually, the most profitable ones are not these two systems.
Instead, it's the most affordable civilian and standard versions of the system.
Because of its low price, even ordinary people could afford it, which led to the widespread adoption of the Deep Blue System across almost the entire continent.
The monthly internet fees, membership fees, entertainment fees, intermediary fees, and various other charges, along with various system loans, all amount to a staggering sum each month.
Currently, apart from the Fallen Angels, the Demi-humans, and a very small number of other races that have created their own systems based on Deep Blue, almost all other races still rely on the Deep Blue system.
Moreover, even if Ye Bing and her Fallen Angels were to replicate Deep Blue, it would be difficult to create a multi-race service platform as massive as Deep Blue's; the market would have already been completely monopolized by him.
Ye Ge continued, "Although Xue'er has been developing high-tech products such as gene weapons, extraordinary technology, the Star of Heaven, and the Eye of the Sky... all of these are extremely expensive projects, fortunately we have a lot of sponsors, which basically offsets this part of the expenses."
Long Ying asked in confusion, "Sponsors?"
Ye Ge said in a serious tone, "I have to thank the Fallen Angel Ye Bing, the Rat Spirit Rat Kui, the Celestial Tian Hao, the Dark Elf Liana, the Shadow Clan Ying Mie Ying Lan, and other kind people for their great support. They bought a lot of things from me, and they never haggled over the price. They are really generous."
Long Ying asked curiously, "What did you sell them? Aren't these people from gene companies? Why would they come to you to buy things?"
Night Song shrugged: "Because they don't know that I'm the one selling them their stuff."
Long Ying: "...Huh?"
