Reincarnated as a boss tyrant in the game

For the farmers who had long toiled on the land with little to show for it, this was undoubtedly a huge temptation and a beacon of hope.

They seemed to see a new dawn in their lives, and thus, they were full of enthusiasm, throwing themselves into the arduous work of land reclamation.

However, the implementation of this policy was not smooth sailing.

When Soran first proposed this idea, he was met with collective opposition from the entire noble circle of the Northwest.

In the long-standing traditional concepts of the Empire, it was unprecedented for farmers to own land.

The nobles worried that once the farmers owned land, it would weaken their privileges and economic interests, disrupting the existing balance of the social hierarchy.

Those nobles gathered together to express their dissatisfaction and concerns to Soran, arguing vehemently that this move would trigger social instability and even potentially shake the foundations of the Empire's rule.

But Soran was not easily deterred by these opposing voices, as he deeply understood the long-term significance of this policy for the development of the Northwest.

Although the opposition from the nobles brought him enormous pressure, he firmly believed that only by allowing farmers to truly benefit from the land could their enthusiasm be mobilized, promoting the prosperity and stability of the Northwest.

Therefore, he began a series of difficult negotiations and maneuvers with the nobles, trying to protect the interests of the farmers while also alleviating the concerns of the nobles as much as possible, seeking a balance that both sides could accept, to ensure the smooth implementation of the land reclamation policy and lay a solid foundation for the future development of the Northwest.

In the process of implementing the land reclamation policy, there were naturally constant twists and turns, and several rather intense bloody conflicts occurred during the period.

Those opposing nobles were unwilling to see their interests damaged and even attempted to obstruct the implementation of the policy by force.

They secretly organized manpower and clashed with the people who supported land reclamation, as well as the teams sent by Soran to maintain order.

For a time, the land was filled with the glint of swords and the shadows of sabers, shouts of killing shook the sky, and blood dyed the still somewhat barren land of the Northwest red.

However, Soran was no longer the Crown Prince who needed to consider balance everywhere.

He was now a completely different person, possessing powerful strength enough to shock all parties.

On the surface, in addition to the elusive and extraordinarily strong Shadow Watch guarding his side, there was also Mentas, the veteran from the Royal Knights, a renowned Saint-level expert with rich combat experience and unwavering loyalty to the royal family.

With these two personally protecting him, it was as if Soran had built a solid defense line, and ordinary people could hardly get close.

And in the dark, there was also a force that could not be underestimated.

Earthshadow, with his unique stealth skills and superb skills, could always perceive everything in the dark, ready to respond to emergencies at any time.

There was also the Holy Knight Buffett, whose strength was unfathomable and could always play an unexpected role at critical moments.

Even more astonishing was that Soran also controlled three Saint-level undead puppets.

These puppets were tireless, unafraid of life and death, and only obeyed Soran's orders.

Each of them possessed the powerful strength to destroy the heavens and the earth.

Even if those rebellious nobles and ferocious beastmen joined forces and sent Saint-level experts to assassinate Soran, they would surely be doomed and return with broken feathers in the face of such a powerful defense force.

However, all of the above were only the existing forces at Soran's disposal, and the number of Saint-level experts he had accumulated in secret was even more astonishing.

Thanks to his series of carefully planned training strategies and the investment of various generous resources, an average of one demigod was able to break through to the Saint-level every week.

Such an efficient breakthrough speed meant that in just three months, the number of Saint-level experts in the Imperial Capital had approached twenty.

This force, when gathered together, was like a dormant dragon, and once awakened, it would surely set off a shocking wave in this turbulent situation, making all those with ulterior motives tremble with fear, daring not to have any more extravagant thoughts about Soran and the policies he was promoting.

With these powerful forces, Soran quickly and decisively suppressed those bloody conflicts one by one, allowing the land of the Northwest to regain its peace, and the land reclamation policy continued to be steadily promoted.

The development of the Northwest also moved forward step by step in this seemingly turbulent but tightly controlled situation.

As Soran embarked on his journey back to the Imperial Capital, the central provinces were already in turmoil, and a fierce battle for the interests surrounding the underground labyrinths was unfolding.

Originally, those intricate and mysterious underground labyrinths had now been cleared for the most part, and the process was full of swords, shadows, open strife, and veiled struggles.

As a result of this operation, both he and Serena made a lot of money, reaping a considerable number of magic crystals and various rare treasures, which can be described as a great harvest.

However, seven of the underground labyrinths were more special, belonging to the affiliated forces of the Psionic Society, and Serena, for various reasons, had no way to seize control of them.

But how could Soran easily let go of this "fat meat" at his mouth?

He turned his mind and came up with a way to directly circle these seven labyrinths, and then, with a tough attitude, forcibly collect their protection fees, requiring these managers' families to hand over half of the magic crystals they earned each month.

Soran's series of actions undoubtedly touched the fundamental interests of the seven underground labyrinth managers' families, making them greatly dissatisfied, and the anger in their hearts accumulated more and more like an erupting volcano.

These families had always had the final say in the operation of the underground labyrinths on weekdays, so when had they ever suffered such grievances?

How could they be willing to hand over half of their hard-earned income?

Therefore, after careful consideration, they decided not to endure any longer and to join forces to resist Soran's domineering behavior.

Each family sent out their own Saint-level experts to the other unexplored underground labyrinths.

After all, as managers who had been operating underground labyrinths for a long time, they had a special way of contacting and exploring, making it easy to determine whether a labyrinth was an advanced labyrinth.

This was a secret method that Soran did not know.

Through this unique way of contact, they were able to quickly gather strength and coordinate their actions, trying to find other managers' families in those labyrinths that had not yet been touched by Soran, accumulating strength in order to have a fierce confrontation with Soran and regain their lost interests and dignity.
