Chapter 752: Final Verdict, Second Population Census

Kui Zi sneered:

"I know you're all afraid!"

"You're afraid you can't bear the cost. What if someone dies because of our arrangements, someone who could have survived otherwise?"

"But have you considered that this would actually let more people survive?"

"Carrying the burden of conscience?"

"No one in power is afraid of that!"

The principle that compassion has no place in command was thoroughly implemented by Kui Zi.

"I think you've gone mad. Taking on a Machinist Sequence, did it actually turn you into a machine?" Senior Sister Red Butterfly fired off.

She hated being controlled by anyone, and Kui Zi's approach instinctively disgusted her.

Kui Zi's brow twitched: "You fool who operates on pure instinct, what do you even understand?"

"I want you dead!" Senior Sister Red Butterfly flew into a rage, clawing and baring her teeth.

Tong Qi hurriedly hugged Senior Sister Red Butterfly, and immediately felt like she was hugging springy jelly. No wonder Lang Ge loved making her the Main DPS.

"Regarding this matter, I think it's better to push it back for now. The Building Wars just ended, it's not suitable for any big moves!" Sherry took a step back.

"The storm has passed, and this is exactly the opportunity for reform!" Kui Zi wouldn't yield an inch.

"I support Miss Kui Zi!" Mary pushed up her glasses, unexpectedly joining the discussion too.

Everyone seemed to have their own points of conviction and persistence on this matter, and they couldn't reach a unified opinion.

Just then, Xu Lang, who had remained silent the whole time, spoke up.

He cast his gaze toward Kui Zi and said seriously: "Kui Zi, this control you're talking about, to what degree exactly?"

"Full control, of course. Preferably organizing the raw material quantities of every single person, making it all clear." Kui Zi's eyes blazed: "With your authority in the Mad King Building, you can absolutely accomplish this. Don't worry, I can handle all the calculations!"

"So from now on we'll all just rely on you, huh!" Senior Sister Red Butterfly gnashed her teeth.

"We could also create an original computer, calculate the optimal solution for Defensive Battle." Kui Zi replied.

It wasn't that she wanted to acknowledge Senior Sister Red Butterfly, but she knew this was a concern others, including Xu Lang, would have too.

"What if the computer breaks down?" Zhen Lu couldn't help asking.

Kui Zi confidently said: "That's just a matter of preparing a couple of backup contingency plans... Xu Lang, what's your take?"

As she finished speaking, she stared eagerly at Xu Lang, wanting an answer.

Everyone fell silent, watching Xu Lang tap his thigh lightly with his index finger, thinking quietly.

After a long while, Xu Lang shook his head and said: "I don't think it'll work. You should understand a principle: the more elaborate the plan, the more prone to failure it becomes."

One sample, two samples, Kui Zi could calculate to perfection.

But the Mad King Building was massive, with data variables from thousands upon thousands of individuals. Kui Zi absolutely could not calculate it with complete accuracy.

After all, she didn't have the Simulation ability of the Nightmare Lord.

Kui Zi had made the same mistake as when she first came to the Mad King Building, which was thinking too highly of herself.

Even he himself wasn't confident in carrying out this kind of thorough, complete rule. Otherwise, he would have already had Faceless replace all the players.

Tong Qi, Sherry, Zhen Lu, and other opposition members all showed joy on their faces upon hearing this.

Kui Zi immediately grew anxious: "Xu Lang, you shouldn't be this stubbornly conservative..."

"I'm not conservative, but you seem a bit impatient. Let me finish speaking first."

Her words cut off, Kui Zi immediately knew there was a turning point. She took a deep breath and calmed herself.

Xu Lang continued:

"Extending governance and management capabilities down to every household is indeed very necessary!"

"This benefits the Mad King Building's long-term development. Madness and Chaos are indeed the embodiment of the Mad King Building's creativity, but Order is also crucial!"

"The future dormitory layout, and turret placements, must be established unilaterally by the Demon King Castle!"

Hearing this domineering statement, Wang Yazhi felt it was inappropriate: "This way the players will definitely be dissatisfied, and we'll also interfere with too much cause and effect."

Xu Lang smiled lightly: "Forced control, everyone will definitely be unhappy. But what if it's framed as rewards?"

"Rewards?" Cao Yaxuan didn't understand what he meant.

Xu Lang explained: "If in our plan, the first floor needs two development-type dormitories and three heavy turrets, then we just directly issue a mission. Whoever completes our objective first, we issue bonus rewards."

Cao Yaxuan swallowed.

You could even do that?

Thinking carefully, it really did seem feasible!

Gu Ya cast an admiring gaze toward Xu Lang, offering Rainbow Farts: "My husband's wisdom has truly surpassed the great Sages, blazing and vast like the sun!"

Sherry asked: "What about those specific dormitories? Like Dormitory Number 1, we must have five heavy turrets to lay the foundation, but what if the Dorm Owner doesn't agree?"

"Smash them with money." Xu Lang laughed: "Teacher Sherry, do you know what demolition compensation is?"

Sherry had stayed in the East for many years and knew the concept of demolition compensation. She immediately asked: "What if you run into a holdout?"

Xu Lang said unexpectedly: "A holdout?"

"Yes, there are always some people who have their own ideas." Sherry nodded.

She was still nodding on her end, while the others had already stifled their laughter.

"What are you laughing at?" Sherry didn't understand.

"If such people really exist, just send Yaxuan to have a nice talk with them." Zhen Lu couldn't hold back and explained.

Black glove on the left, white glove on the right. If the other party still didn't agree, then you'd just make an example out of them.

Maliciously disrupting the Mad King Building's Order, who else would you expect to die?

Han Zhixiu actually didn't quite understand at first either, but after hearing the explanation, she silently drew a sharp breath.

No wonder the Mad King Building wanted to get rid of Xu Lang. This power usurpation was far too ruthless!

The Mission Hall issues missions, and Xu Lang also issues missions!

Players want free will, and leadership visits them directly at their door!

Both flags of centralization and democracy were firmly gripped in Xu Lang's hands. What difference was there between the Mad King Building being hollowed out and Xu Lang owning it? The Mad King Building could already change its name!

"Before that, we should still conduct a round of player census first, and conveniently all the players are at home right now." Xu Lang temporarily felt that upgrading the dormitory wasn't important anymore. Doing a major investigation seemed more urgent.

As the Acting Dorm Owner, he could actually look up the total population, the number of non-empty dormitory rooms, and player information.

But combining all this information was very troublesome, and each major dormitory's combat and development styles also required on-site understanding. Otherwise it would be detrimental to the subsequent facility deployment.

This time, he would put in some effort too, and see exactly how many hidden talents were inside the Mad King Building.
