With the AI Brain controlling entities like the Fei and fiber bodies, Red Bay Town was quickly brought under Qi Suian's violent rule.
It wasn't that no one resisted. After all, having been controlled once before, they naturally understood how precious freedom was. It's just that those who resisted ended up dead.

A whole series of projects—the World Core, his SSS-grade virus talent, the Wind King's Scale, Windwalkers, and more—were all proceeding simultaneously.
Of course, all these projects could technically be categorized under the World Core project, as they were all part of the preparatory work for it.
The process was relatively smooth, without any major bottlenecks.
This was mainly because the projects were complementary in many ways. As long as one of them made progress, the others wouldn't pose much of a problem.
