If audio player doesn't work, press Reset or reload the page.

In this edition of the special feature, it tells of the time when Austin annexed a nearby Beastman Tribe and, instead of enslaving them, provided them with food, then organized and trained them, integrating them into the existing Dragon Nest Race.

Afterwards, they cleared fields, planted crops, and eliminated monsters. In the perilous wilderness forest, they led the Beastmen to create a stable and well-supplied utopia.

A series of events, if looked at in reality, might seem dull,

but when written in newspapers, they stir people's emotions.

When the Dragon Nest Tribe was weak and attacked by enemies, readers would worry; when food was scarce and they had to look for other sources of sustenance, readers would feel a sense of hope. And when the weak tribe repelled the enemy attacks, annexed their power, found more food sources, and the whole tribe became stronger, readers would be genuinely happy...

All of this not only showcased the initial Dragon Nest Tribe's perseverance in a harsh environment but also His Highness Austin's wisdom and compassion for the impoverished and marginalized groups.

This is worthy of the citizens' admiration for that great Blue Dragon Austin in the Blue Dragon Kingdom.

Like the halo he wears, wisdom, compassion, fairness... all the virtues in the world can be found in that great king.

Throughout the Blue Dragon Kingdom, maybe some people in some private organizations are indifferent to the predominantly Beastman government officials, and surely among many citizens, there are some racists who do not wish to see Beastmen dominate humans.

But even the most radical racists cannot find a single flaw in the great monarch who established all this, who conquered everyone living under his rule with his wisdom, compassion, and strength.

To rise from the perilous wilderness forest, to create all this from nothing, and establish a civilized nation upon the southern wilderness, no one can find even the slightest fault.

With years of continuous newspaper publicity, the citizens living on this land not only feel a sense of belonging to the Blue Dragon Kingdom but also a pride in saying, "I am a citizen of this kingdom."

Through the spread of newspapers, various scientific production techniques, civilization levels, and other concepts have been widely disseminated,

so that even the lowest-tier citizens of the kingdom know that their Blue Dragon Kingdom is much more advanced and civilized than those human kingdoms on the Central Earth Continent still in medieval feudal societies.

It is the combination of publicity and reality that gives every citizen of the kingdom a strong affinity for the great King Austin and the Blue Dragon Kingdom.

Perhaps due to interests, there is competition and different ideologies within the kingdom.

However, every person truly recognizes, from the heart, the symbol of this kingdom—Austin—and this nation.

"Great His Highness Austin, without you, there would be no great nation..."

On the sofa, old Siran, unaware of how his mindset has been influenced by such a novel concept as the newspaper, sighed profoundly.

Pondering this special feature for a moment, old Siran stretched his limbs.

Then he turned to the second page of the People's Daily,

"Chaos in the Central Earth Continent continues to escalate. The King of the Ireland Kingdom, one of the Seven Kingdoms, is gravely ill. Many princes are secretly mobilizing troops, and a storm is brewing in the Ireland Imperial Capital..."

Glancing at the opening, old Siran paused slightly, then read it carefully.

The news, using a third-party perspective, detailed the current situation in Ireland, one of the Seven Kingdoms. With the old king gravely ill, some princes are secretly colluding, some border armies are being recalled, and the imperial capital, full of intrigue and danger, is about to face major turmoil.

And due to power struggles at the top, the group of refugees caused by natural and man-made disasters is further expanding and spreading, plunging the entire kingdom into a precarious state.

This piece of news didn't take up much space; in just about ten minutes, old Siran had finished reading it.

"Alas, when will the Central Earth Continent ever find peace again!" 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

An aged voice couldn't help but sigh.

In other sections of the second page, news stories were describing the chaotic situation in Central Earth, where even the Seven Great Kingdoms are struggling to maintain their own, with two already engulfed in war, and the rest, like the Ireland Kingdom, facing various issues. Natural disasters continue to occur frequently, royal officials are embroiled in internal strife with no plans for relief, and famine is spreading ever more chaotically...

Various pieces of news describing the scorching hot turmoil across the Central Earth Continent filled the page.

Looking at these news stories, even old Siran couldn't help but feel a sense of relief in his heart amid his sighs.

Fortunately, he had come to this relatively peaceful land, otherwise, like a case described in the newspaper, some country fell into internal strife, the capital was besieged by troops, causing heavy civilian casualties, with reports of food prices reaching a gold coin for a spoonful of wheat.

No matter what, at least within the Blue Dragon Kingdom, they could still maintain a stable and peaceful life.

Food supplies on the market were also plentiful, with the substantial agricultural output ensuring the availability of food at a very low price.

They were free from the worry of food and clothing, and personal safety was not an issue.

Compared to those still struggling and wandering as refugees on the Central Earth Continent, their life was practically like living in paradise.

Once again, thank the great Blue Dragon Austin, thank him for creating such a great nation, for building such a warm and safe haven for them.

Old Siran didn't know that at that moment, he wasn't the only one in his heart thanking Austin.

Realizing the current plight of Central Earth through the newspapers, the readers of the People's Daily felt not only a shared disturbance but infinite gratitude towards the great His Highness Austin.

The sense of belonging to the Blue Dragon Kingdom had been further enhanced.

After sighing here and there, old Siran turned over to the second page and moved on to the third page.

On the third page of the People's Daily, it mainly covered some current policies of the Blue Dragon Kingdom, various events happening domestically, some popular cultivation knowledge, and included some stories and novels.

Anyway, apart from the first page dedicated to praising the great His Highness Austin, the second page mostly fixed on international current affairs, while there was nothing fixed on the third and fourth pages, just writing whatever is interesting.

Political news, local customs and practices, jokes and anecdotes, story collections, advertisements, and so on, everything was included.
