《Rise of the White Dragon 》Chapter 189: Ingrid's Idea
Advertisement
March 5, 2010, Monday, 5:30 am.
'Things are not exactly going as I expected. The dimensional cracks are opening faster and faster and at the speed that this is happening, it will not take more than 1 month... I still have several preparations to consider and also...'
Luan, who had created a high-range drone, was monitoring an island. The island was called 'Ilha Grande'. Despite the name being like this, it wasn't exactly a big island. It was because beside this island, there was a smaller island less than half the size of the first island.
'I think that with the preparations I made I should be able to buy this island.'
Truth be told, Luan was not completely sure about buying this island, since the changes had already proved that it would not be exactly as in his previous life, and even though things were capable of what he expected to happen, somehow they did not happen.
Luan shook his head and thought, 'Things are very unlikely to be different, but I don't deny the chances of this being wrong, however, it is still worth the risk.'
On this island, one of the towers would appear. Before, it was monopolized by foreigners who invaded the land, but this time, he wouldn't let that repeat itself.
Towers was nothing more than this: a great store, so to speak. You exchange your luck, that is, winning luck that is scored and manage to buy a lot in the tower. It was precisely because of the towers that Luan had achieved several different techniques, but they didn't necessarily come out perfect; most were imperfect techniques that were later perfected by him.
While he was lost in his thoughts, there was a small stir in the bed. With only the blanket covering her private parts, Ingrid sat on the bed and let the blanket fall with the front exposed.
Ingrid's sleepy, pleasant voice came out as she hugged him, "Good morning, my love."

"Good Morning." Luan came out of his thoughts, and smiled at her.
Getting up from the bed, Ingrid went to the bathroom, not caring about the nude show she gave Luan, intending to take a shower.
'Mhm? Strange, he didn't even want to come along... Well, whatever~' Ingrid hummed as she turned on the shower.
After she finished doing her daily necessities, Ingrid came out of the bathroom with a towel around her head and with a towel wrapped around her curved body. Looking towards the bed, she saw that Luan was typing something on the laptop.
Ingrid sat on her side, quiet and cute.
"I finished." Luan kissed her face and stood up, heading towards the bathroom.
'Ah yes!' Ingrid seemed to have remembered something and took out her laptop.
At a considerably fast speed she started typing on the keyboard. It was a tournament setup - or to be more precise, a proposal for a new tournament. But unlike what will happen in Online Survival, she wanted to do it in real life. This included having the participants be only the top 100 players in Online Survival.

"Mom, I want to buy and move to this island. Of course, preferably, you all would come together with me," Luan said.
Maira put her coffee cup down. She saw that he was serious, and said, "Why?"
"Dense concentrations of Qi," Luan said, "I have already studied this island and I know that the probability of a tower appearing on this island is high. Even if it doesn't, it's still not a disadvantage. This island is only two kilometers away from the mainland, surrounded by the sea and three directions with easy access to the mainland. In addition, because we have a high concentration of Qi and are isolated, we can be more unrestrained on this island, and I can start training you more effectively."
"But what about work?" Ingrid asked.

"No problem," Luan replied, "This island is in Palhoça, not far from the workplace. We will only need a speedboat to go to solid ground every day and get a car afterwards. In fact, there is a mansion for sale not far from the island. I intend to buy and use it to store the cars and leave boats and speedboats there."
"I see that you already have everything planned out," Maira said, "Okay, I agree. If it is to improve our state of life and prepare for what is to come, it is not a bad idea."
"I also agree, however, I don't want to live totally isolated. Are you going to be able to make this island have access to the internet and cellular network, Luan?" Catharina looked at him and asked.
"That's easy. Before we'll have moved to this island," Luan said, "I will have finished building the satellite. With that, the internet and cellular network will be one of the least of our problems."
"So, yes, then." Catharina went back to eating breakfast.
"Will I be able to invite my friend to visit?" Cristina asked quietly.
"I do not see a problem," Luan told her.
"Oh... good!" Cristina smiled adorably.
'It will also be better for Elias and the rest to train,' Luan thought.

Dimas Corporation headquarters, meeting room - 2:00 pm
"Was that really Secretary Ingrid's idea?" One of the executives couldn't help feeling surprised and even doubted whether the proposal was real or not.
The idea that Ingrid presented in the meeting room was well thought out. Not only would it bring a lot of profit to Dimas Corporation, but it would also make people more and more aware of Dimas Corporation.
In fact, the game Online Survival was not quite a part of the company's profit. From the beginning, Luan had depended very little on the company when creating this game; the profit margin for the company was only in marketing and also in the host. Of course, the attention that the game drew by itself had already made the company's shares rise by more than 150% in a very short time. If this continued, it would not be a dream to have Dimas Corporation not only be among the top corporations in Brazil, it may even be among the top worldwide! Just thinking about it, left some of the shareholders with a silly smile.
"Yes, I came up with it," Ingrid said and added, "But, CEO Luan helped me a little - although, it was only in the formation of the structure of the tournament, while the idea was mine."
"Very good," one of the shareholders said with a flattering smile, "Secretary Ingrid is really very smart. I totally agree with that."
The other shareholders and executives also approved. Of course, even if they did not approve, it made no difference. Luan could do everything on his own, as he had enough money to pay for the entire tournament.
"We are going to wrap up for today," Luan said, "Once all the plans have been drawn up and approved, we will start working on it as soon as possible. Mainly anticipating UnimedHall's accommodation."
"Yeah!" They were more serious than ever. Now that he had little time to prepare everything to promote a great fight show in real life, many preparations were needed in advance.
Luan also had other jobs to do, mainly to talk to other countries and see which ones would want to do the same thing that was going to be done in Brazil. But of course, he would charge 10% of the profit, while still making the same prizes available.
If everything went as expected, Luan would win big.

Tur Briste
A Druid cultivation novel. Borrows concepts from Wuxia and Xianxia but using Druid myth and lore. More on this at the bottom. Crow is son of Maddox, a Druid with an ancient bloodline and a people with a story spanning toward the beginning of time. Cursed, unfated, and a heap of bad luck have brought him only pain and suffering, but nothing will stop him. Nothing can stop him. A son of Maddox doesn’t bow his head. A son of Maddox understands that only a man with roots, with something to lose, will fight until the last drop of blood leaves his body. The Draoidh were once a proud people. They were both respected and hated for their form of righteousness. Power wasn’t something they gained through the might of their arms, but through intelligence. Their fall was all the more disheartening for the weaker cultivators. The tens of thousands of years that followed… chaos reigned. They forced Draoidh until most fled to the lower realms, nearly wiped out and exhausted. They went into hiding and became known as the Druids of the Oak. The Druid Order wasn’t the powerhouse it had been, and only nine of the major clans survived the calamity. Their bloodline weakened, as well as their prestige. Even the remaining clans fought amongst each other. Already on the decline and near extinguished, the Maddox clan can only struggle for survival, but their foundation wasn’t a joke. Weakened, but not weak. The other clans will understand this difference soon enough. Tur Briste, the Shattered Tower, awaits Crow’s ascension. Reaching the upper realms is only the first step in reestablishing the Draoidh. The Druids of the Oak remembered every betrayal and grievance, and they’ll return to power and reclaim what once belonged to them. The upper realms may have forgotten, but the Druid Order has not. Please Note:1) This is harem story. There are only a few chapters with sex, and it’s not a focus of the story. I’ll only add graphic sex if I feel the story needs it, so not gratuitously. Either way, Crow has several women. This is in line with Druid/Celtic history, and harems/reverse harems were an accepted part of their culture. Further, they had open marriages, meaning the man or woman could end their marriage at any time. While it was still a patriarchy, women had almost equal power. They were a very progressive culture. 2) There is a period of a 30-50 chapters where Crow loses the ability to cultivate like a Druid so he adopts an eastern body cultivation method for a while. This is temporary, but some people feel it’s misleading, so I am pointing it out ahead of time. I promise, the Druid stuff comes back, and 90% of the lore/myths/creatures/gods are all related to Druid/Celt/Irish/Scottish history. 3) I use many original names, most of which are in Gaelic or Irish. In the story, I refer to this language as Ancient. I enjoy all kinds of folklore and myths, so I encourage you to google those original names as they arrive. I give some background on them at the end of the chapter in my author’s note. 4) I use Ogham runes a lot, these are like the Druid alphabet, and they based each rune on a sacred tree so they also have symbolism associated with them. Again, feel free to google that too. It’s pretty neat stuff. Quick Translations:Draoidh = DruidTur Briste = Shattered Tower or Broken Tower Release Schedule:As of Oct 1, 2021- 3 chapters released every Sunday (May have up to two bonus chapters)- Side character chapters… this might be bonus chapters I release through the week. So they won’t count toward the 3 chapters on Sunday.- Please understand I work full time, have two kids, and can’t spare as much time as I’d like toward my writing. Maybe in the future I can switch to doing this full time, but for now 3 chapters is a comfortable pace for me. Lastly… I very much appreciate all my readers and thank you for allowing me to entertain you!
