Chapter 900 - Announcement
Larefin wanted nothing more than to leave that place and head back to tell the Zasfins about what he learned. However, he knew that their negotiations weren't over yet. After all, the reason he came here was for the communication system, and that hasn't changed yet. "Alright, let's consider that your awakening plan can't be stopped anymore. You want both sides to exchange people to live in their midsts, right? What kind of people are we talking about?"
"Isn't that obvious?" Rean asked in response. "I'll send humans who have developed Soul Power. Also, your Formation Guild will be responsible for their safety. The initial integration will be very complicated. However, we have to start from somewhere. Do that, and the methodology for the communication system is yours to analyze."
Larefin narrowed his eyes after that. "However, you don't intend to give it to us straight away, right?"
"Of course!" Rean nodded. "However, I won't leave you empty-handed. After all, I could simply ignore this deal once I achieve my objective as well. The same way I couldn't trust you, you can't just trust me either. That being said, I'll give you a small introduction to the Circuitry Formations. It won't be enough for you to figure out how the communication system works. Nevertheless, it will improve your own view of the formation world by leaps and bounds."

"Hahaha!" Rean laughed out loud in response. "Don't worry. I'm absolutely sure you will follow this deal to the very bitter end when things can't be taken back anymore."
Larefin once again felt like Rean wasn't joking. "How?"
Rean then pointed at the antenna at the top of the Freedom Mountain Peak. "Once you understand what Circuitry Formations are and what they can do, there's no way your Formation Guild will ever try to call this deal off. They will do everything in their power to guarantee that they will receive the methods to create them."
The Zasfin Formation Masters were surprised by Rean's confidence. However, if Qia or any of the Formation Masters of the guild were here, they wouldn't find it surprising at all. Every single one of them was hooked to the world of Circuitry Formations, like moths flying into open flames. There was simply not enough will to resist its immense allure.
With that, Rean asked the crucial question, "So, are you going to accept my offer?"
Larefin shook his head, though. "I can't do that on my own. I have to head back to Palif Empire and talk with the higher-ups."
Rean was already expecting that. "That's fine. Here, all of you can take this." Right after, Rean threw several jade slips to the Formation Masters present. They were the introductions to a few simple runes of the Circuitry Formations. Rean was certain that it would be enough to make them hooked. "Try to study it a little once you guys are back at the Zasfin continent."
Suddenly, a disciple of the sect approached Rean to pass on some information, telling him, "Elder Rean, the broadcast to all the areas within the range of our communication system is ready. However, at least half of the Wringan countries won't be able to hear it since we haven't installed the antennas in their territories yet."
Rean shook his head in response as he replied, "That's not a problem. More than half of Wringan Continent means hundreds of millions of humans already. The rest of the humans in other areas will hear about it sooner or later."

The disciples of our sect will guide you outside. Make sure to keep the sect's badges close to you. Otherwise, don't blame me if the demon beasts protecting the continent aim your group on your way out."
It was then that Rean remembered something. "Oh, right! This broadcast will also reach the Zasfin cities that have obtained our antennas. I believe you guys already got your hands on a few of our Nokias, so you should be able to hear it as well. After all, I'm sending this message to all the display formations and Spiritual Smartphones that can be connected to our sect." After that, Rean left the building.
Larefin's group was then guided out of Freedom Sect before being released back in the city with their airship. However, they didn't leave straight away and waited for Rean's broadcast. They obviously wanted to stop it at any cost, but they knew it was simply impossible.
Around an hour later, the broadcast start. The Spiritual Smartphones were still quite crude. However, they received a few improvements which allowed voice to pass through. One must remember that it was only possible to send and receive Spiritual Sense Messages, so the addition of voice transmission was indeed a new perk. Naturally, Rean added it so that humans without cultivation could exchange information as well.
All over Wringan Continent, there were big megaphones installed close to the towers holding the Freedom Sect's antennas. Well, to be more specific, those were Spiritual Circuitry Formation Megaphones. They could use Spiritual Energy to increase their sound range to entire cities using just a single one. Cultivators often used Spiritual Energy to increase their voices, after all. The megaphones basically followed the same principle.
"Ahem! Hello, everyone. My name is Rean, and I'm one of the elders of the Freedom Sect. Some of you probably know about us as the strongest power in Wringan Continent. Others might know about us because of our business partners, like Freedom Healing SA or Freedom Communications LTD. Anyway, I'm here to announce that our customers who bought equipment from our Freedom Healing SA also got a hidden surprise. Congratulations, you have just acquired a piece of equipment capable of awakening Soul Power!"
Rean continued his speech as he explained the extra perk of his Healing Equipment. By the time Rean finished his words, the entire Wringan Continent had gone into an uproar.. Well, the half that heard his announcement, at least.
