Level Up in Earth Evolution

"Miss Irene, it won\'t get you anything even if you stare at me like this," Li Wei stated with a stern face, not falling for her tricks.

It was only for a little while he took his eyes off her, and she caused so much mess like a kid. It was a good thing he didn\'t give her too much snow, or who knows if she would\'ve installed more powerful equipment to blow the whole mountain.

As he thought of this, he sighed inwardly wondering what kinds of trouble she will cause in future.

Just as he worried about this, Irene, who heard him, became anxious with fear.

"Li Wei, I already apologized to you, then... then why are you doing this? It is not fair at all. Why are you bullying a weak girl like me?" she complained, her eyes starting to mist up, forming tear drops, while her lips trembled in anger.

Watching her like this, Li Wei became dumbfounded, realizing she wasn\'t acting and was about to cry for real.

\'Damn! When did I bully you? Also, stop calling yourself weak,\' Li Wei cursed in his mind as he replied.

"Miss Irene, I can give you snow; however, you have to agree to my conditions first," he stated, looking into her teary eyes that were suddenly filled with happiness and doubt after hearing him.

"Li Wei, what conditions do you want? As long as you don\'t ask for my body or private things, I will try to comply with what you say," Irene replied hurriedly, with a serious look, making Li Wei speechless.

He really wanted to tease her now, but he was afraid she might cry, so he decided against it.

"Miss Irene, my conditions are simple. The first is to stop teasing me, the second is you are not allowed to use any golem equipment and create trouble like this, and the last one is you have to spar with me," Li Wei asserted, making Irene pout at him.

"Li Wei, I can agree to the third condition but not the first and second," Irene replied firmly, as if she wasn\'t going to back down.

But after watching Li Wei stare at her without saying anything, her firmness faltered.

"Uh, Li Wei, I will agree to the third and second, but not the first. This is all I could do. If you still don\'t accept it, then... then I will cry," she threatened, tears forming in her eyes again.

\'Fuck! What a dirty play, exploiting my weakness like this,\' Li Wei cursed internally after hearing her as he replied.

"Okay, I will accept this, but you have to make sure not to cause any trouble again, or there will be no snow for you," he stated with a strict look.

In response, Irene nodded obediently like a child but with an unwilling expression.

"Okay, I won\'t create trouble again," she muttered with a sad tone as she hugged her knees tightly, resembling a girl who has been bullied too badly.

Watching her like this, Li Wei\'s mouth twitched with irritation.

"Miss Irene, please stop acting like that. No one has bullied you," he remarked with a tired tone, making Irene look at him with a pout.

But she didn\'t say anything and started to play with leaves and some ants that were around her, while wearing a sulky expression that left Li Wei speechless.

\'Ugh, it\'s really hard to babysit her. I hope Lily and Olivia don\'t become like this,\' Li Wei prayed in his mind as he used his Frost Nova skill to make snow for Irene, while observing Li Xin and the others who were battling monsters.

Everything seemed normal except for Olivia\'s expression, which was filled with various emotions from happiness to sadness.

Observing this, Li Wei sighed as he knew the reason.

\'I should fast forward my plans, or everyone might also start to feel the same as her,\' he thought, turning towards Irene, who was still busy playing with leaves and some ants on the ground, while sneaking glances at the snow beside him.

It was still a little, so she wasn\'t taking any yet and was waiting calmly to see more, seemingly having forgotten about the fact that she was bullied.

Li Wei once again became speechless at this, but he didn\'t care and asked the most important question about his plan.

"Miss Irene, is there a way to purchase land and create a city?" he inquired, making Irene stunned at his sudden question.

"Li Wei, don\'t tell me you are serious about building a city," she asked with wide eyes.

In response, Li Wei nodded.

"Yes, I am serious about this. So, can you tell me if there is a way?" he inquired again.

Hearing this, Irene gave him a deep look before explaining.

"There are a lot of ways to do it, but I don\'t think you will be willing for any of them, as that will require sacrificing a lot, sometimes even marrying into a noble family and giving your life to the kingdom."

"Also, from your looks, I don\'t think you want your city to be under any power, right?" she asked with a curious look.

"Yes, I don\'t want it to be under any kingdom or powers. It will be just an independent city of mine," Li Wei replied with a firm nod, making Irene shake her head at him.

"Li Wei, it\'s impossible to create a city like that because all the resources you will need for city building, not to mention all the high-level areas are taken by the kingdoms. They will only be willing to sell the low-level troublesome areas."

"So, it\'s no use to buy them unless you are planning to house low-level people from Earth who will not use too many resources," Irene replied as she looked at Li Wei with a deep expression.

In response, Li Wei chuckled.

"It seems you are not that dumb," he muttered, feeling amused by her sudden smartness.

"Humph, Li Wei, don\'t take me as dumb. I just like to play a lot. It doesn\'t mean I am not smart," Irene stated with a snort before continuing.

"Also, the same goes for you, who can think so far ahead. But are you sure it will work?" she asked with a pout, contemplating the situation.

The Earth was going through evolution, changing rapidly with high-level areas appearing faster and faster.

These areas would undoubtedly attract the attention of the four worlds, as it was difficult to find high-level monsters, and once such an area appeared, a fight would ensue between them.

As for the people of Earth, it would be impossible for them to fight back against the armies of the four worlds. With no choice, they would have to retreat somewhere, and here lies the problem.

There was no good person test on Earth, meaning people could be forced to do anything even if they took refuge other Earth cities. The same applied to the people from the four worlds if they decided to stay on Earth permanently, they would ignore the test.

Not to mention there was also an evil faction that would find Earth to their liking and create chaos, making it unsafe.

Finally, the low-level people would decide to live safely in other worlds, where it would depend on Li Wei how to attract them to his city. It would be easy for him if he revealed his strength while making the city stronger and safer.

The people from Earth would definitely trust him more, considering the four worlds were the reason they had escaped here.

It was a simple plan, but people from the other worlds weren\'t idiots. They would definitely see him taking advantage of it and would do something to stop him. After all, who wouldn\'t want some free workers if they could get them?

Li Wei also knew the problems he would face, but he wasn\'t afraid.

"Miss Irene, there is only one way to make it successful, and it is to stand up against challenges. It will definitely be hard, but isn\'t something impossible," Li Wei replied with confidence.

There was still a lot of time for this situation to happen, and it was sufficient for him to get strong enough to ignore the threats of this world.

As he thought of this, Irene who heard him became stunned, as she didn\'t know about his bug and ten times bonus.

\'Mhm, he must be hiding many things from me,\' she thought with a pout and looked at him with a cute look.

"Brother Wei, are you hiding something from your cute wife? That\'s unfair. You have to tell me all your secrets. As a wife, I have a responsibility to know everything," she stated, poking Li Wei\'s shoulders with her slim finger and a sulky look.

However, Li Wei pretended he didn\'t hear her and resumed the conversation before it could end up somewhere else.

"Miss Irene, jokes aside, can you tell me how I can buy a land separate from the kingdom and how much will it cost? Also, what kinds of problems will I face when buying it?" Li Wei inquired with a serious expression.
