Chapter 848 – Golden Stage

As expected, the moment the System Notification finished, a World Notification was announced.

“World Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi for successfully establishing the Great Xia Dynasty, reign title Shenwu, becoming the first king in the world. Awarded 150 thousand merit points, 300 thousand reputation points, hidden building Golden Stage, and one mysterious gift!”

Even though they were prepared, when the players heard the world notification, they still took in a deep cold breath. Gaia not only gave him a hidden building, but there was also a mysteries gift.

This was the first time ‘mysterious gift’ appeared in the notification, making everyone interested.

Unfortunately, they were not fated to see it.

The moment the notification ended, a System Notification sounded out in Ouyang Shuo’s ear.

“System Notification: Congratulations Qiyue Wuyi for obtaining a special reward, will you take it now?”

“Yes!”

He had obtained a special reward when he reached the Capital City level, so Ouyang Shuo was not too shocked.

“System Notification: Starting to receive the special reward…”

“System Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi for receiving an equipment award; obtained God Rank Set Dragon Battle Cape – Purple Dragon Pattern Cape, congratulations player!”

Ouyang Shuo smiled; this reward was what he wanted. Having a deep luck stat was different. Since getting the Dragon Battle Set till now, he had only gathered two pieces of the set.

Now, he had finally obtained the third piece.

Name: Purple Dragon Pattern Cape (God Rank)

Type: Cape

Toughness: 92

Specialty: Quick Movement (raises movement speed by 50%)

Note: Purple Dragon Pattern Cape is a part of the Dragon Battle Set, if one collect the whole set, a set specialty can be activated. Current set total: 3/5

After checking the stats of the cape, Ouyang Shuo shook his head. The name of the cape was so powerful but it was just used to escape.

Luckily, the cape looked mighty and fit with Ouyang Shuo’s current status.

“System Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi for obtaining a mysterious gift, will you collect it?”

“Yes!”

Ouyang Shuo suppressed his emotions. Obviously, he was really curious about the gift.

“System Notification: Starting to obtain a mysterious gift…”

“System Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi for obtaining special item; obtained Planet Hope Basic Information Atlas, congratulations!”

When Ouyang Shuo heard that, his eyes lit up.

A white light shone across and a thick book appeared in Ouyang Shuo’s hand. It was like an encyclopedia in real life, and there was a mysterious planet on the cover. It seemed like an image of Planet Hope.

On the left top corner of the book were the words top secret. Below the words ‘top secret’ was a serial number 0015, which showed that even in the federation, only 14 people could come into contact with this information.

The use of the code was also to prevent information from being released.

Ouyang Shuo dared to be certain that his book was different from the others.

If he revealed the secrets contained inside, someone would definitely know.

Ouyang Shuo took in a deep breath and flipped open the book, only to see the book split into geography, biology, and confidential sections. Each one was filled with pictures and brimmed with life.

The most magical part was that some of the pictures were animated.

Ouyang Shuo browsed through before he hurriedly closed the book.

Such a confidential document had greater meaning to Ouyang Shuo than any God Weapon. Even if someone took two God Rank tokens to exchange for it, Ouyang Shuo would not do it.

Especially to Ouyang Shuo, this information was really precious. Compared to the academic faction and Silver Hand, being unable to get information about Planet Hope had been worrying Ouyang Shuo.

As expected, this was a mysterious gift.

Ouyang Shuo had reason to doubt that Gaia was just using this chance to pass the info to him.

The random draw was just a joke.

Thinking back to what he had spoken with Zhan Lang about, Ouyang Shuo’s eyes lit up. No one knew what he was thinking and what he was planning.

Putting the book into his storage bag, Ouyang Shuo took in a deep breath, and his heart burned with unprecedented ambition.

“The road in front is still a long one.” Ouyang Shuo muttered.

After collecting the two presents, Ouyang Shuo took a look at the stats of the Golden Stage.

As he often read historical records, Ouyang Shuo was not unfamiliar with the Golden Stage. The Golden Stage was also the recruitment stage built during the Warring States Period.

In history, King Yan Zhao ascended in 311 BC and his reign lasted 33 years till 279 BC. When he was appointed, he was in a fervent quest for talents. He used the Golden Stage to recruit scholars and talents, and the people he recruited included famous generals like Yue Yi and Zhou Yan.

The backwards Yan state instantly became filled with talent. It changed from a place that was chaotic internally into a rich and prosperous state.

The Golden Stage designed by Gaia came from such a backstory.

Name: Golden Stage

Type: Hidden Building

Function: Each year, player can use one million gold to recruit a historical talent

Specialty: raises attraction of talents by 20%, raises fame of territory by 5%

As expected from the Golden Stage, recruiting one historical talent would use up one million gold; this was the most expensive hidden building in Shanhai City.

Luckily, it was already the 4th year of Gaia and the great Xia Dynasty was extremely rich.

If it was during the 1st year of Gaia and Gaia rewarded Shanhai City with this instead of the Recruitment Hall, Ouyang Shuo would probably cry.

Coincidentally, Gaia had rewarded him with five million gold. Without any hesitation, Ouyang Shuo activated the Golden Stage.

“System Notification: Congratulations player Qiyue Wuyi for activating the Golden Stage, first time activation, automatically obtaining a chance to recruit a historical talent, would you use the chance?”

“Yes!”

“System Notification: Recruitment confirmed, automatically deducting one million gold!”

When Ouyang Shuo heard that, his face twitched a little. It really was spending money like water. Now, he wished to receive a decent talent. If not, this one million gold would have gone to waste.

A white light shone across and a thin and cold middle-aged man appeared. Before he even spoke, one could feel a righteous and sharp aura.

“I am Wei Zheng, greetings king!”

When Ouyang Shuo saw this person, his expression was a little complicated. He did not think that he would actually summon such an official.

Speaking of Wei Zheng, one would think of the Saint Lord and good minister duo of Wei Zheng and Li Shimin. The two of them molded one another, the Lord becoming a powerful one and the minister becoming a righteous one.

The two of them had a rare bond and tales of their friendship were spread for thousands of years and were the example for people to follow.

Wei Zheng was a really righteous person who did not care who he was speaking to as long as he was right. He was loyal to his moral code and would not give in.

He lost his parents when he was young and lived a harsh childhood. However, he really loved to read and understood many different types of books and different fields of studies. He once became a priest and had also joined the army under Li Mi before.

After surrendering to the Tang Dynasty, Wei Zheng convinced Xu Shiji to surrender to Tang.

After the Xuanwu Gate Coup, Li Shimin recognized Wei Zheng’s bold ability. Not only did he not blame Wei Zheng, but he even let Wei Zheng become an official and question administrative matters. Wei Zheng focused on his task.

Ironically, since ancient times, a frank minister would not receive a happy ending, and Wei Zheng was no exception. Not Long after Wei Zheng’s death, the Tang emperor ordered people to destroy Wei Zheng’s stele and the legacy that he had created.

Name: Wei Zheng (Emperor Rank)

Dynasty: Sui Tang Dynasty

Identity: Great Xia Dynasty Civil Servant

Occupation: Civil Servant

Loyalty: 75

Command: 55

Force: 35

Intelligence: 85

Politics: 88

Specialty: Frank Minister (raises the territory honesty by 50%, raises people’s sentiment by 15%, raises territory transparency by 25%)

Evaluation: Wei Zheng was ambitious. He did not like all the small details and loved books; he was a really direct and straightforward person. He diligently served by the king’s side and placed the king above himself. He is ranked 4th in the Lingyan Pavilion for contributing ministers.
