Ning An's Wild Wish System

Li Jianye and the Russian Representative exchanged a knowing smile.

This move was naturally within their expectations.

After all, if Yingjiang wanted to stabilize the situation in an instant, they had to find a scapegoat.

Williams was the perfect sacrificial lamb.

Although this move could barely confuse public opinion and extricate Yingjiang, people are unpredictable.

As long as it could shake Yingjiang’s international reputation, even just a crack, it was a victory worth celebrating.

The Russian Representative spoke up: ”So you mean to say that even your Yingjiang military is also a victim in this matter?”

Davis said solemnly, ”Naturally so.”

”But rest assured, despite our Yingjiang military also being a victim, we will certainly honor the previous contract.”

”We will fully compensate for the losses you have incurred according to the contract!”

Andre also stepped forward, his face stern: ”To demonstrate our sincerity, we are willing to pay an additional five percent over the original contract amount for your losses.”

”I’m sorry, I apologize to you.”

Upon seeing this, the netizens from Dragon Country, who were originally invincible in online debates, let loose.

”Come on, take a look, this is the suzerain country you are so proud of.”

”It’s so satisfying! After putting up with this indignity for so many days, today feels like the clouds have parted, truly comforting!”

”Good, good, good, who would’ve thought Yingjiang would apologize someday, it’s killing me with laughter.”

”My mom is truly the number one in stealth, you thought you were at the highest level, but my mom is in the atmosphere. What do you say to that?”

Even usually neutral third-country netizens couldn’t stop praising.

”If it weren’t for this livestream, I wouldn’t have known that the once backward Eastern great power is now so fierce that Yingjiang has to steal their technology.”

”Ha, you’re behind, it’s not just the aircraft carrier arresting gear; Dragon Country is far ahead in many areas. Not to speak of anything else, the Wukong quantum computer, tsk tsk tsk.”

”The ancient empire has awakened once more, from now on, Yingjiang may not be able to sleep well, lifting the cover at night will mean facing the aircraft carrier arresting gear.”

This drama unfolded exactly as per the original script.

Just as Li Jianye and the Russian Representative were satisfied with this encirclement strategy, a stiff Chinese voice emerged.

”Dragon Country representative, I heard that your country could produce the aircraft carrier arresting gear because a scientist went to seek incense offerings, is that true?”

The gathered reporters from various countries, who were about to leave satisfied, paused and began looking around in confusion, not quite getting it.

”What? What nonsense is this now, do cultists become reporters too?”

”No idea, we reporters present facts and evidence. Even my grandma knows reporters talk science, not theology.”

”Which country’s reporter is this, lacking basic professionalism?”

Soon, the area around the reporter who spoke up emptied, his four-nation flag motif very conspicuous.

Li Jianye, who was initially puzzled as well, became enlightened upon seeing it was a reporter from Korea.

If anyone knows you best, it’s not your parents or friends, not even your partner, but your enemy.

Plus, with Han Xiuxian as Korea’s spiritual figure, the entire country was focused on Changchun Temple from top to bottom.

Thus, he knew it was not surprising Elder Lin went there to offer incense and make a wish.

”Ahem.”

Seeing the crowd whispering, Li Jianye lightly cleared his throat, drawing their attention, then smiled and said: ”I think this Korean friend’s question is very humorous.”

”As we all know, theological beliefs have always existed, but what has driven us humans to discover up to now is science, through countless pioneers who toiled and even sacrificed for it.”

Hearing this, the gathered reporters nodded in agreement.

”May I ask the Korean reporter, when your crops ripen, is it your family that picks them under the blazing sun, sweating profusely, or do you burn incense at home inviting the gods to show up and help?”

This tea-scented comment caused everyone to burst into laughter.

The Korean reporter flushed red but insisted, ”But can you say the aircraft carrier arresting gear has nothing at all to do with the incense offerings at Changchun Temple?”

Seeing the offbeat Korean reporter, netizens in the live stream were perplexed.

”What is Changchun Temple?”

”It should be a Daoist temple in Dragon Country, equivalent to going to a Christian church to pray to God.”

”Huh? Is he out of his mind? Faith is faith, science is science; how are they mixed?”

Dragon Country netizens, seeing the situation, were eager to educate, sharing classic high-moment videos of Changchun Temple.

They even added subtitles in various languages for netizens from other countries to better understand.

”Look, here is our Changchun Temple in Dragon Country, the incense offerings may be bizarre, but they are extraordinarily effective.”

”See here, the Daoist Master’s first livestream, someone came to pray for peace, turned around and got sent to jail by an immortal.”

”Check this, an online celebrity hoping his head doesn’t ache for two more days as soon as possible, what do you think happened? Shot the next day!”

”And that’s not the half of it, see here! Aluf, the world’s most extraordinary person; his fulfilled wish was truly thrilling, oh wow.”

...

Netizens from various countries watched the videos, more and more shocked as they went on.

”Oh my God! This...this isn’t an ordinary Daoist temple, right?”

”I get a feeling it’s the Evil God.”

No matter how turbulent the online discussion, Li Jianye chuckled twice, warmly saying: ”I think if you join your country’s variety show, you’d undoubtedly be a brilliant comedian, being a reporter is a waste of your talent.”

The Korean reporter’s face turned scarlet, being humiliated on the spot, anyone would tolerate it.

He stiffened his neck, ready to question again, but was interrupted by Li Jianye who gestured his hand down.

”I admit, some in our Dragon Country did pray for the aircraft carrier arresting gear, and it was indeed a few days ago.”

Upon hearing this, there was an even greater uproar from the reporters present, looking at Li Jianye with more surprise and disbelief.

Viewers in the live stream were also extremely astonished.

”What the heck? What’s going on with Dragon Country, in this scientific world, that Changchun Temple video seemed odd, but it could be explained, right?”

”It’s a bit absurd, things are moving in an interesting direction.”

”Could it really be like Dragon Country novels, the Spiritual Qi Revival has begun?”

”We’re done for, Dragon Country has cultivators, what will we do, which generation is Spider-Man mutated to, can he withstand it?”

Even the reporters present couldn’t contain themselves, one standing up.

”Mr. Li, you don’t seem to contradict this journalist friend’s words?”

Li Jianye maintained the same tipsy expression, casually saying: ”What’s there to contradict, indeed we prayed for it, nothing wrong with admitting that.”

Wow!

The reporters on site couldn’t hold it in anymore.

Teasing, sarcasm, doubts, all sorts of voices clashed, making a commotion.

Gazing at the varied expressions below the stage, Li Jianye wickedly smiled:

”So, you think our Dragon Country can produce the aircraft carrier arresting gear because of incense offerings?”

”May I ask everyone, Gao Family Factory’s production of the aircraft carrier arresting gear, surely can’t be done in just a few days, right?”
