Ultra: Dark Shadow Mage, Founding a Magic Empire

Chapter 5 United as one!

“Population is the most important thing.”

Norman thought about opening the system. The system panel was very simple, with only five data and a civilization development route.

……

[Civilization: Black Kingdom (name changeable)]

[Owner: Norman (King)]

[System Capability: Integration (the power of the members is equal to the total power of the entire civilization)]

[Population: 3 million (Note: The system only counts the population that sincerely belongs to civilization)]

[Civilization Ability: Son of the Night (Bloodline), Technology First, Country of Etiquette, Barbarian]

[Civilization Development Route: Fantasy Route (the probability of fantasy events and inventions in the civilization increases, the fantasy talents of the civilization population improve, and newborns have a higher probability of having different types of fantasy bloodlines and abilities)]

……

Click on the civilization ability to view the detailed introduction of the ability.

[Son of the Night: Bloodline ability, special vampire bloodline, able to use blood magic, strength, speed, and reaction ability increased a hundredfold, does not need oxygen, does not need and is not afraid of sunlight, can absorb planetary energy through special rituals! ]

[Technology First: The speed of technological development increases, and there is a certain probability of triggering a technological explosion, triggering special technology! (Note: Technology Victory!)]

[A nation of etiquette: When you first meet other civilizations or species, your friendship level will remain constant and your cultural development speed will increase! (Note: Although you can rule the country with technology, I chose cultural victory!)]

[Barbarian: Tribal type civilization friendship is constant at intimate, the army's combat effectiveness is enhanced, and it is immune to reputation attacks from declaring war! (Note: I am a barbarian!)]

……

The system's records are indeed real. The three civilization capabilities are the result of Norman's unremitting efforts over the past decade.

Of course, he didn't like the title of barbarian.

But there is no way, the many kingdoms in the south have always called them that.

Having said that, if nothing unexpected had happened, Norman should have been living in the royal palace of the Southern Kingdom with his army.

After all, he won the previous battle completely!
The core capability of the system, or the capability that Norman cares about, is “integration into one”.

As long as the population is large, his power will be strong!

And the stronger the people in the civilization are, the stronger he will be!

Just imagine that if everyone in the civilization is at the level of the Ultra Brothers, then his strength would be directly stacked up to the level of the Mysterious Four Ultras, or even surpass them!

So in the final analysis, we still need to develop the population.

Norman looked at the map. The system and social management within the Black Kingdom were perfect.

But even so, now that the incident has happened, there has been considerable chaos, with incidents of vandalism and smashing occurring one after another.

So let alone the situation in other countries, it is probably already in chaos, with people running around and fighting everywhere.

This is also the reason why Norman asked the army to be on alert and not let the refugees rush in directly.

But if you think about it from another perspective, they are all desperate and terrified now.

So if I come up with a solution now, using both kindness and severity, will I be able to accept them all directly?

"His Majesty."

Just as Norman was thinking, Caitlin walked in from outside.

Norman looked up at her and said, "Speak."

"The people inside and outside the capital have been divided into groups and are waiting for your speech at Victory Square. The other seven major cities are also being urgently evacuated to try to protect all the people in the main city."

"Well, we still have to go out and take a look. Let's go."

Norman stood up, walked out of the meeting room and came to the stands.

"Your Majesty! It's Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, may you win! Your Majesty, may you be mighty!"

When Norman appeared before the people, all the people gathered in the country knelt down like a tsunami and loudly praised Norman's achievements.

The first to kneel were the people standing in the venue, followed by those outside the venue, then those in the city, outside the city, and in the suburbs.

The end is as far as the eye can see.

However, these are only people from a few cities around the capital. The Black Kingdom has a population of 30 million, which is already comparable to the reign of Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing of the early Han Dynasty!

One city cannot hold everything, and they still need to be managed separately.

Looking at these people who were kneeling down to him sincerely, Norman felt a sense of pride in his heart.

In ten years, Norman conquered a large territory.

It borders the boundless sea to the east, grasslands and glaciers to the north, and plateau snow-capped mountains to the west.

That is, the vast and fertile land in the south was occupied by many countries, which made it impossible for the Black Kingdom, which occupied most of the relatively barren land, to advance quickly. But in terms of development, they were not behind at all.

The ultimate people-oriented strategy has put Norman at the forefront of the times.

The people live and work in peace and contentment, and they submit to and respect him from the bottom of their hearts!
Otherwise, even if there is a system, it is impossible to obtain such powerful power all at once.

After all, according to the system's judgment, only those with full loyalty or those who truly believe that they belong to this civilization can be bound and locked by the system to provide power for Norman.

But when it comes to development,

Although the Normans tried their best to develop agriculture and animal husbandry, in ten years they only managed to integrate the various tribes and kingdoms, and the population was only 30 million.

But on this planet, this is considered to be on the lower side.

There's no way, this is a different world. Although it has a medieval atmosphere, the crops and plants here are really productive.

The countries in the plains of the south have vast land areas and populations of over 50 million!
This is also one of the reasons why Norman wanted to go south. After all, there are better places to farm, so why not go?

Although he was holding the script of "Reborn as a Northern Barbarian" at the time, as a descendant of a country of etiquette, wouldn't it be easy for him to practice etiquette?

At this point in time, it is land and food that restrict the Normans.

In terms of technology, culture and other aspects, Norman is far ahead!
If the sun hadn’t suddenly gone out and monsters hadn’t appeared, Norman would have won a cultural victory!

"Get up."

Norman's voice came out.

The people in the front stood up first, and then those behind followed.

Norman's voice was not loud, but it could be heard by everyone.

"Is that your Majesty's voice? Strange, we can hear it even outside the city?"

"Is it my imagination?"

"Did you hear that too?"

"Your Majesty has really received the revelation!?"

The people exclaimed and knelt down before Norman again.

After discovering that their king could project sounds directly into their minds, their faith in Norman deepened!

The people of the Black Kingdom have all been enlightened and they also know some common sense.

But this incredible ability is precisely the heaviest blow to those who have common sense and have broken away from feudal superstitions.

Either break their beliefs or become their beliefs!
"Sons of the Night, we have truly awakened! Your Majesty did not lie to us!"

"Really! My memory has also been awakened!"

"Long live your Majesty!"

As Norman's voice reached everyone's ears, the seven-day deadline had arrived.

In the entire Black Kingdom, all residents who recognized their own identities from the bottom of their hearts had their blood awakened and were completely bound by the system, becoming citizens recognized by the system!

"I believe you can all hear my voice, and the generals have informed you of the apocalypse."

Norman continued, “We will become the children of the night, and continue to multiply in the long darkness. From now on, until an unknown time in the future, our world will be filled with only darkness, coldness, and death.

But please don’t give up hope. Please believe that one day, we will make the sun shine again, so that our children and grandchildren can see the light again and live under the sun again! "

"Before that, we must prepare ourselves, plan for the future, and fight this long dark night together. Do you have the confidence?"

Norman's voice echoed in everyone's mind.

His voice was soft and his words were simple, but everyone's blood boiled after hearing them.

Because this matter is not just Norman's business, but it concerns everyone, it concerns them, their children, and their descendants!
"We are willing to be your sword and your warhorse, to charge into battle for you, to kill all the enemies for you, and to let your glory shine everywhere!"

The soldiers knelt down immediately and swore an oath to Norman.

Then, three different oaths and praises were uttered simultaneously among the people.

"You are the wind of the grassland, the master of the horses, the god of the wolves, the heavenly father, and the water and grass we follow... We will fight for you and give everything. Your will will be our direction!"

"The eagles of the plateau are your warriors, the yaks of the Tianshan Mountains are your apostles, you are the child of the mountain, you are the offspring of the snow... Following the ancient covenant, we will fight for you until death!"

"Lord of the hundred thousand miles of rivers, your will is our direction, your thoughts are our nectar, we will follow you to the end of the world, forever!"

Ancient medieval-style ballads began to be sung by people from all directions, from the Mesopotamian River Basin, the snowy mountains, the grasslands and deserts.

In their native language, they expressed their loyalty to Norman!
The moment they made their oath, they were not only willing to fight for Norman from the bottom of their hearts, but also to fight for this new country and this new civilization!

Norman clenched his fists and smiled.

"People's hearts can be used! Darkness cannot trap us!"
