The book generated by the Book Fruit already has its own space, and as Oran gradually completes the skill tree from top to bottom, the application of the Book Fruit is becoming more and more widespread.
Recently, Oran has been able to communicate with the spaces between the books. Within the same set of books, he can enter from the first volume and leave from the second volume, instead of being limited to one book.
However, there is currently a distance limit to this movement; it can only move short distances within the territory.
Oran's ability to send messages via flying letters also relies on beacon books, which are like stations to Oran.
If there are enough stations, he can lay a complete railway across the entire world. If there are beacon locations all over the world, given enough time, Oran can gradually transfer what he needs.
This thing is like the Protoss's crystal towers. You might not need it normally, but having a crystal tower readily available in a certain place would definitely be much more convenient.
Oran's goal is to plant his own "wards" all over the world. It may not have any practical significance in the short term, but it will come in handy sooner or later.
At the same time, this is also an intangible form of cultural export.
Knowledge is precious in this world, especially in less developed countries where ordinary people have no access to books.
This is an opportunity to subtly increase Piltover's global profile.
"This is a good thing. It's just a piece of idle land and a house that's not needed. All of you here are famous kings. Surely you wouldn't find even this kind of thing difficult?"
Alabasta agreed with King Oran's suggestion; wouldn't such a library also benefit the nation's development?
Cobra was the first to agree with Oran's idea, since it didn't seem harmful. No one present could imagine what a library, or more precisely, a particular book in a library, meant to Oran.
The more the king considered the lives of his people, the more he approved of Oran's ideas. Although they valued Oran's identity as king more, they did not forget his dual identity as a physician and scientist.
Books provided by such a renowned scholar must be of very high quality.
"Yes, Dressrosa seconds. Although our country is not very wealthy, we can still provide a house and some land. It's a good thing to give our citizens more opportunities to access knowledge."
"What's the point of making those ignorant people know so much? It would be better to just make them obediently submit to the rule."
They are all monarchies, but the differences between monarchies are significant. Some monarchies are based on the feudal imperial system, while others are similar to slavery, only outwardly opposing slavery.
But regardless of the system, the desire to keep the people ignorant is always implicit, since such people are easier to manage.
"Yes, does King Oran intend to repeat the events of Flevance and have them petition again? Your ambition is quite considerable."
The selection committee actually awarded you both the Peace Prize and the Medicine Prize this year—two awards in one person! That's quite a compliment, isn't it?
That happened after the Frivans incident. Oran won two awards that year. The Medicine Award was for his breakthrough in platinum lead disease, which saved countless patients.
He was awarded the Peace Prize for preventing a bloody massacre against Fryvanus, thus averting a deadly conflict in the North Sea, which has now become a reason for others to speak ill of him.
"You really have a lot to worry about, this king whose name I can't remember. But given your attitude of treating your people like slaves, their rebellion is only a matter of time, isn't it?"
As for petitions, those are the bitter fruit of the Fryvanes royal family's own actions. The people support you; why should you worry about such things?
Oran leaned back in his chair, looking rather languid. Hmm, he wasn't comfortable at all.
The chairs in this conference room are just hard boards prepared for meetings. Forget about ergonomics, there isn't even a slight curve in them. Apart from symbolizing a special status, they are worthless.
Many of Oran's suggestions concerned the redistribution of interests, and as a former beneficiary, he would naturally object, but he selectively ignored such sarcastic remarks.
"These are just some personal thoughts. If you disagree, do you think I'll force you to repair the library? I won't do something that's thankless. If you're interested, let's contact each other after the meeting. Let's leave this topic at that."
"."
Upon hearing this, some kings were taken aback, as they seemed to have misunderstood something.
At present, Oran simply wants to leave some teleportation points as an initial phase. One is enough within a certain range, and someone will take the initiative to help. Why bother arguing with those who oppose it?
However, some people in certain countries are wary of Piltover's current "hegemony." They thought that Oran meant that all countries had to accept this demand and could not refuse it, only to find out that they had been overthinking it.
This isn't impossible. You don't need anything else; Steel Oz just stands in front of someone's house, and whatever Oran says goes.
However, there's no need to do that; showing your fangs too early will only make others wary.
The seven-day meeting ended in arguments, bringing this world conference to a close. There was some progress on the issue of the merfolk, although they still did not have an advantage in the vote, some countries have begun to support it.
With some further changes over the next few years, this matter should be basically settled at the next meeting.
In recent days, some rather abstract things have even happened on social media. Piltover's international standing is rising, and it has become an ideal marriage partner in the eyes of many countries.
However, there was nothing that Piltover needed to exchange for marriage, so the desire for marriage became wishful thinking on the part of others, and among the royal family members, there were always some who were oblivious to the situation and thought themselves powerful.
"No wonder Sister Fran doesn't like coming to this place; these people are really annoying."
The boy in front of her, who kept talking and claimed to be a prince of some country, annoyed her greatly, like a leech that she couldn't shake off.
However, he didn't lay a hand on him, nor did he break any local rules, so the guards couldn't directly attack him.
To be precise, there was no need for guards; Perona could handle the situation herself. When she reached a corner, seeing that the other party hadn't given up, a small Negative Ghost flew out of her hand.
After that, a rumor circulated that a prince suddenly felt inferior at a world conference, and even frightened a princess from another country, thus losing his priority in choosing a spouse at this event.
