LORD OF THE SKY CITY

Chapter 543: Chapter 506 This Is Not Appropriate Chapter 543: Chapter 506 This Is Not Appropriate The turbulence in the outside world had little to do with Rocky; it wasn’t that he didn’t care about the changes, but rather he was less concerned about his own affairs.

Thus, after leaving the Mairente Family, he quickly led his team back to Backhill Village and began a series of handovers with the Sky Alliance.

Having recovered so much compensation from the Mairente Family, it was natural to hand these over to the Sky Alliance upon his return. Needless to say, Aileen took care of all these matters.

Upon receiving this task, Aileen promptly handed over a well-organized list to Bodin and others, but what she handed over were two lists; one list’s contents completely matched the compensation they had received, but the other list’s contents were roughly the same as the initial demands set by the Mairente Family. Particularly in terms of goods, there were some discrepancies between the contents of the list and the actual compensation received. As for which list Bodin and his group handed over to the Alliance, that was their concern, as Rocky had done all he could on his part.

With this, the task assigned to Rocky by the Alliance was considered satisfactorily completed, and soon after, Bodin and the others bid him farewell and returned to Nut God City Airspace.

After their departure, Rocky once again became busy.

This trip to the Mairente Family had brought him an immensely huge gain, namely Mairente City.

Mairente City, a medium-sized Sky City with a population of over thirty thousand!

With this city, Rocky’s status was immediately transformed; though still a City Lord, he was now the lord of a medium-sized Sky City.

What did this equate to?

Remember Karlo, the lord of Wild Horse City? He was the lord of a medium-sized Sky City, and now Rocky was at the same level as him. No, Rocky’s status was even higher now because Karlo only had Wild Horse City whereas Rocky not only owned Mairente City but also Thunderhawk City; he ruled over two Sky Cities!

By this account, Rocky was truly a farmer who had turned his fortunes around. Just a month ago, he was merely the lord of a small town, but now he owned both Thunderhawk City and Mairente City, not only placing him among the ranks of medium-sized city lords but elevating him even higher than them. After all, he also had Thunderhawk City!

In this situation, Rocky naturally had more matters to attend to. He had more responsibilities to manage and deal with than before, and what he urgently needed to address was how to handle Mairente City.

Though Mairente City was now under Rocky’s ownership, he perceived this ownership as merely legal. The city’s people, from officials to common citizens, did not feel a sense of allegiance towards him, a fact that was apparent during the previous duel. The citizens of Mairente City certainly did not regard Rocky as their City Lord.

This was an utterly pressing matter for Rocky, and he needed to handle it swiftly.

Therefore, upon returning to Backhill Village, he immediately dispatched people to compile a series of statistics, thoroughly documenting everything that could be accounted for in Mairente City. Once he obtained this information, he convened a meeting at the first opportunity to discuss how to handle the situation.

In the City Lord’s Hall of Thunderhawk City, not only did everyone gather, but there was also an additional person—Athena.

Upon returning to Backhill Village, Rocky made his way back to Thunderhawk City much as Athena had predicted. Athena naturally came to Thunderhawk City as well, but unlike her time in Glory City, upon arriving in Thunderhawk City, she made a request to Rocky, hoping he would provide her with a position.

This request quite startled Rocky; he had never thought that Athena would want to serve him.

However, since Athena had already stated her thoughts, and Rocky, unable to decipher her motives, agreed, the group gathered in the City Lord’s Hall now included Liliya to Rocky’s left and an additional person to his right, Athena, in the role of Rocky’s staff officer.

Seated on the City Lord’s Throne in the hall, Rocky was looking down, nodding continually as he reviewed the freshly prepared statistics.

A medium-sized Sky City is truly extraordinary!

According to the statistics, the population of Mairente City had reached around thirty-five thousand, not only meeting but far surpassing the standard of a medium-sized Sky City.

Beyond the population, the city boasted one hundred twenty-eight industrial sites, encompassing manufacturing, retail, trade, and even the financial sector. Though the city was only of medium size, its foundation in labor force, productivity, and industrial capacity was very strong.

Frankly speaking, even if Rocky dedicated himself to development, Thunderhawk City would take years to reach a comparable level, and even longer to achieve the same scale.

After reviewing the data, Rocky looked around and asked,

“Everyone, how do you think we should handle Carltos City?”

Mairente City was originally named Carltos City; it was renamed after being deceitfully taken by the family, and now that the city had returned to Rocky’s control, his first decision was to change the city’s name back to Carltos City, signifying complete ownership.

“Lord, I think you should personally take charge,”

After Rocky posed this question, Old Jack stepped forward and said, “Lord, now that Carltos City has just returned, the city is unsettled, and your presence is necessary to stabilize the citizens’ minds.”

After Old Jack finished speaking, Aileen and Monte among others could not help but nod in agreement.

The people of Carltos City were indeed anxious, as their allegiance had changed; they were now under Rocky’s jurisdiction. What was Rocky like? What were his governance policies? How would he treat them? These were the worries of the city’s citizens.

Moreover, it was clear to anyone that Rocky’s strength was not match for the Mairente family. Hence, under his rule, the people of Carltos City couldn’t help but worry, a concern that if not addressed promptly, might become a potential threat in the future.

Such a Sky City, with excellent fundamentals, was crucial for Rocky’s development. Thus, it could not afford any mishaps, and the only way to prevent these mishaps was for Rocky to take upon himself to address them.

Only if Rocky personally took charge of Carltos City and implemented a series of policies could the people’s minds be calmed, and only then could the city return to its past operation.

Additionally, in every respect, Carltos City was much stronger than Thunderhawk City, and such a Sky City was more suitable to become the center of Rocky’s development. Therefore, taking all these into account, Old Jack made such a proposal.

But as he finished making his proposal, and the others expressed their agreement, Athena on Rocky’s right spoke up.

Standing slightly by Rocky’s side and bowing slightly, Athena slowly said, “Lord, I think this is unwise.”
