Chapter 481 The Situation and Yunshen's Efforts

All in all, when Scar returned to his residence, he didn't get angry because there was an extra woman in his room, because the pharmacist introduced to him that this was the new head nurse of the district hospital he had just developed.

Although inertial thinking makes countries' preferred way to strengthen the relationship with the industrial alliance is still very inclined to forge marriages, but after understanding the internal governance system of the industrial alliance, they are also very happy that they or their descendants can get what this system gives them. The power granted, even if they have to face competition with "inferior people" for this.Because when this military summit meeting was held, the first wave of beasts broke out as expected by the industrial city command center.

Two-thirds of the world's space passages have experienced large-scale biological invasions. According to the immediate report from the Sky Eye system, the alliance troops in the Western Continent's theaters basically completed the defense and cleanup of this wave of invading creatures within two days. The production and construction of the region have a visible impact.The situation of the Eastern Alliance is also completely controllable, and the situation of the Far Eastern Continent still needs further observation and analysis. Although the military alliances in the central and northeastern parts of Central Continent have also responded effectively to the beast tide, their organizational defects have already been seen. .

Under such circumstances, the Human Self-Defense Alliance's move to send the assassin's frozen body back to the Holy Alliance and issue a stern warning will have a significant impact, even if the Industrial Alliance has not shown signs of suspending trade with the central region. The news reports from all channels and fronts were still delivered on time, and the pope still had to write a sincere letter of apology to the "magician", expressing that he did not intend to cause disputes. Humanity must be united in front of the enemy. The Holy Alliance is willing to continue to cooperate with the Human Self-Defense Alliance Attitude.

The last time the Pope bowed his head to the secular rulers was in the late period of the First Rift War more than 200 years ago, so the shock caused by this letter to the Central Continent can be imagined.

However, no matter how many people feel unbelievable, the Industrial Alliance has indeed raised its status to the level of the Central Empire at its peak in just a few years, or even a few months-this statement is just for convenience To those who are still unfamiliar with it, the Industrial Alliance is profoundly changing the lives of the people of Middle-earth at a devastating speed, which the Central Empire has never done.

Due to the successive establishment of the four major alliances of the Human Self-Defense Alliance, the Eastern Alliance, the Holy Religious Alliance, and the Imperial Revival Alliance, and the emergence of various military and political alliances inside and outside the four major alliances, a clear division of regions appeared for the first time in the formerly scattered Central Continent. Regardless of the internal integration status of these alliances, due to the elimination or weakening of inter-regional barriers and the strong need of each alliance to enhance its military strength, the massive industrial products produced by industrial alliances operating all production lines can be called perfusion. dumped into these alliances.

A large amount of material wealth returned to the industrial alliance, which helped them further strengthen their control over the theaters and countries surrounding the theaters.In this unprecedented large-scale trade activity in the history of Central Continent, along with the promotion of the production technology that the Industrial Alliance selflessly shared with the world, the language, characters, and culture of the Industrial Alliance have been widely disseminated.The large gap in development level makes it difficult for people to agree with the preaching of the church and a few nobles when they use the steel armor and weapons imprinted by the alliance, take the medicine produced by the alliance, and obtain instant information from all over the world through newspapers, radios and other media , still regard the West as a barbaric world.

The church requires people to strictly abide by the precepts, and only accept the necessary trade to defeat the greater threat of alien invasion, and block the cultural invasion of the industrial alliance.However, regardless of the rampant internal smuggling caused by the "trade rules" of the Holy Alliance, the Industrial Alliance is not as humble as they are in the business field in the field of public opinion. rumours, and demanded that the insiders of countries prevent the relocation of residents near the point of arrival to punish them, their media used this as a spearhead to launch a storm of attacks on the Holy See in newspapers and on the radio, and put the political transactions that should have been passed through internally. The crisis that eliminated it has once again come to the fore.

The influence of the industrial alliance's media on Central Continent has been fully demonstrated through this wave of public opinion wars where one side has no power to fight back. It must be said that this is also the result of the risky assassination of the Western Continent Military Summit by extreme members of the Holy See. One of the reasons, but this failed assassination also quickly turned the crisis of the Holy See’s reputation into a power dilemma. China's grand plan, and finally chose to compromise with the industrial alliance.

But for the Industrial Alliance, after the Pope expressed his willingness to purge internal members instead of trial, the suspension of the attack on the Holy Alliance is not just for the sake of the overall situation, because the alliance's social transformation of the rear of each theater has initially achieved results, allowing the alliance The liberators saw a bright future for people to consciously overthrow the personal control of feudal rulers and the spiritual rule of religion.

This is good news that is even more exciting than winning the first battle.

The first battle mentioned here naturally refers to the first encounter with the beast horde. From the perspective of the alliance's frontline combat troops who have already established a stable position, although the large number of wild animals and plants driven from other worlds are not without lethality, they are still very dangerous to them. The clearing and control of the war was not really a serious battle, but as if to echo their arrogance, a force within the Takla system in the eastern theater encountered a frenzied population of herbivores that had so far descended on Middle-earth. Although the largest creatures have rough skin and thick flesh, they need to use heavy weapons to effectively intercept them, but their good luck is in the back - what drives these herbivores crazy is the swarm of poisonous bees that follow.

Even though the front-line army exhausted all means to wipe out most of the bee colonies above the defense line, a group of poisonous bees still crossed the front line and entered the rear production area. The danger warning was sent back quickly, but it still inevitably caused some loss.

This lesson is worth remembering.Because this is undoubtedly just the beginning.

The second wave of animal swarms occurred after all regions of Central Continent were basically prepared. Not only was the scale of the biological invasion this time larger and more destructive, but what was even more serious was the third wave of animal swarms that followed, giving the Far East The defense lines in various parts of Central Continent outside the mainland have been severely tested.

At least it is an extremely severe test for the Holy Alliance and the Imperial Revival Alliance in the Middle East.

Even in the rear area, Takla could hear the distant thunder of cannons in the office.The alliance's war technology sometimes makes people feel unskilled, especially when they choose a position to fight, it seems that it is nothing more than selecting a position, building a position, arranging firepower, and then continuously transporting a large number of shells from the rear until the pile is full Warehouses, on the front line of the defense line, have more firepower reserves than food.

He glanced out the window. At this distance, it is difficult for ordinary people to directly observe the existence of the space channel with the naked eye, but Takla's senses have now been raised to an inhuman level. Here, he can not only see They, see, can see the curvature of the surrounding space caused by these passages. "Bending" will also cause subtle changes in some physical constants in the surrounding areas. Although the impact on human body and spirit has not yet appeared, the range and killing range of the thermal weapons relied on by the alliance have changed to varying degrees.At present, these changes will not cause major obstacles to combat. When the density of invaders is so high that they can be hit with eyes closed, the range should be longer or closer, and the killing radius should be larger or smaller. All members can adjust the ruler according to the situation in time to complete the combat mission.

These battles have once again verified the unshakable truth since the establishment of the Industrial Alliance: thermal weapons have an absolute advantage over human (beast) wave tactics. In the case of sparing no firepower, no matter whether these creatures from other worlds are from the air or from the ground, Whether launching an attack on the defense line from the ground, they were unable to break through the fiery metal storm and enter the inner line. They could only use irrational charges to turn the battlefield into a sea of ​​blood hell, causing considerable mental pressure on the alliance fighters.

For the Holy Alliance and the Empire Revival Alliance, the pressure that the Industrial Alliance has to face is simply insignificant.

He retracted his gaze, put away the Sky Eye regional subsystem on the table, and put his gaze on the map of Central Continent on the table. The Central Continent is divided into three parts with clear boundaries by these markings. The black lines of different thicknesses represent the defensive fronts of each area. The two gaps located in the middle and northeast of the Central Continent are particularly distinct. According to the Industrial City Master System According to the battle report, millions of alien creatures are rushing out of the gap in the defense line like an overflowing flood, pouring into the hinterland of the Holy Alliance and the Imperial Revival Alliance like a tide.Even the main system cannot fully monitor the entire continent, but it is still conceivable that if the Holy Alliance and the Revival Alliance did not organize the evacuation of the people in time and effectively guide the beast tide, the situation in those lost areas may be very bad now.

The Industrial Alliance has steadily notified Central Continent of the changes in various space passages every day, and effectively guaranteed the smooth flow of trade routes, fulfilling the obligations of non-allies.Takla knew that unless there was a fourth wave of beasts coming soon, just this level of mistakes would not be enough to hurt the Holy Alliance and the Revival Alliance.On the other hand, the Eastern Alliance, dominated by the United Kingdom, has also successfully resisted the impact of the beast horde, but the bloody battlefield has caused considerable mental damage to the elves.

Also, their tree elf, who has not yet grown up, seems to be a little unusual recently.

But the biggest anomaly occurs on the Far Eastern continent.

There is no doubt about Astaros' non-human identity. Judging from the corps guarding the outside of the various space passages, he should not fully welcome the other world, but the same biological invasion occurred in the Far East. These corps did not take active blocking actions, but only made basic defenses against the beast hordes that rushed in front of them.It is still not quite sure whether it is the tactics of these corps, or the species of animals and plants are different, or the Far Eastern monarch has already made arrangements-the research department found that these areas seem to have subtle light deviations by analyzing the images obtained by the sky eye system.Under various factors, the swarms of beasts scattered in all directions did not appear as aggressive as those encountered in the Central Continent. Their actions were close to normal migration, and the Sky Eye had already observed many settled populations.

Judging from the past experience of the ice pole expedition team being rescued and then sent out of the Far East Continent, and the various records of the Sky Eye, the population of the Far East Continent may have been concentrated in cities and towns, and the large area of ​​land thus vacated can bear these large-scale biological invasion.Although alien species will cause a devastating blow to native species, this is not necessarily the purpose of decision makers—these indulged alien species will reconstruct the food chain in this world and supply the survival needs of the subsequent migrating alien races.

However, if it is said that what Astaros did was to manage a large enough land to wait for the arrival of the same race, the arrangement of his corps was to ensure that he had the right to dominate at all times, and the facts known so far seem to be very supportive This conclusion, but for many people in the Central Continent who believe in their intuition more than the so-called facts, it is difficult for them to believe that the centuries-old plan of the Far East monarch is for this purpose—or only for this purpose.

Just as people don't really believe that the purpose of the "artists" of the industrial alliance to establish the human self-defense alliance is only for the survival and continuation of human beings themselves.

But whether they believe it or not, it is now an irrefutable fact that half a continent must rely on industrial alliances for their unity.

Takla reviewed the current overall situation of the Central Continent alone, while thinking about the results of the meeting just now.As the commander-in-chief of a combat direction, he is not only responsible for military command and mobilization, but also responsible for the internal ideological life of the army and other matters.The quality of all aspects of the alliance soldiers is undoubtedly reliable and outstanding, but even the industrial alliance has been able to recruit and train a large number of military personnel in a short period of time due to the fully intensive industrial and agricultural production , the defense industry alliance is very sufficient, but scattered on the map of Central Continent, as the main force of the front lines of each channel, it appears to be very weak.

Therefore, not only the allied countries have to send officers to the industrial alliance to receive military training on new weapons, but the allied armies that have arrived in various theaters must also organize various self-defense forces and militias in the local area. Together, the system lays the foundation for a civil war.

Under the instructions from the industrial city, they have completed the task of building mutual trust among the people in the same area and organizing them according to the local conditions.The local people also accepted the management and leadership of the liberators, which was completely different from the old-style rulers, and also accepted the production methods and cultural life transplanted by the new rulers from other places, and these processes were all approved and witnessed by the original rulers. happened next.And the alliance's excellent performance in resisting the beast horde on the front line directly pushed the progress of mobilization into the army a step forward-although this also led to the shift of the focus of the ideological lessons of recruit training from how to overcome the fear of unknown enemies to guarding against arrogance Above the restlessness, the instructor must repeatedly warn these excited recruits not to think that mastering new weapons will definitely win victory. The alien race has not yet appeared, and the second contact war cannot be regarded as having begun. The real war must be extremely difficult. Cruel.

The established authority of Union soldiers guaranteed that such education would be effective, but the effect was limited, and the greatest problem was that even the most experienced Union soldiers had never experienced an enemy equal or stronger than the Union. fighting.

This is likely to be the source of their frustration, and it cannot be easily resolved by stepping up training.

Takla looked out of the window again. In the eyes of ordinary people, these passages are like hollow columns, but in his eyes, they are more like cracks separated by sharp blades.That is the so-called "crack".

Then, at the other end of these rifts, when will the "demon race" in the other world, which has the same origin as the Central Continent race, really come to this world, to unravel the fog of history one after another, to make all the long-ago arrangements take effect, and to let Where do they see the world going in the end?

In the central city of the Industrial Alliance, the extremely beautiful silver-haired dragon is also looking out the window, and he is facing the direction of the floating city that has been fixed on the sea.That's a pretty roomy, solid platform for anything to happen on.

"These passages have entered a stable stage." Meravia said with her face propped up, "They will not come slowly. They have prepared this plan for a long time. Although it is not perfect, once it starts, even dragons cannot prevent the process."

"But at least you are not completely unprepared." He added, "According to your war theory, the Central Continent people may not be defeated, even if you are inexperienced, but you have a lot of people. And your opponent is very arrogant even in the eyes of Long Yes, arrogance means stupidity, and in war stupidity costs lives, and they keep their populations too small."

"Of course, even if they are very arrogant and very stupid, they are still much stronger than you."

Melavia turned back from the window, and he said to Yun Shen: "This will be a cruel war for you."

"Yes." Yun Shen said.

Meravia said: "You are one of the leaders of this war. But when those human races officially descend, the time I have been waiting for will come. That child will return to that world. Even so, you Or is he going to be so deeply involved in this war?"

"People don't particularly care about this kind of thing. I am also a different kind from another world." Yun Shen said, "It is a collective decision that he can take up the current job."

"But your will can determine their decision. As long as you tell them the truth, let them know that this child is a alien from another world, and cut him off from this world, people will not trust him." Meravia said, "This unprecedented spiritual control covering tens of millions of people is based on the trust of human beings in you and him, and the real starting point is you."

"But you didn't make any attempt to stop it," Meravia said. "Is it because you don't want to give up such a convenient means of control, or because you don't want him to leave?"

Meravia tilted her head.

"I don't think so." He said, "You are very much like my elder brother, both smart and sensitive. For example, some of the things I have told you, you believe, and some you don't believe at all. For example, I will be good for this child. Grow up, feed yourself to him, you knew it was a complete lie from the first day you knew me, right?"

Yun Shen didn't answer.He didn't need to answer either.

Meravia looked at him and laughed.

"I'm not lying," he said. "For me, it's the same whether I ate him or he ate me."

"Then I have a different opinion from yours." Yun Shen said, "Actually, when the rift is really 'opened', you can use your body to go back, right?"

"Yes," said Meravia.

"Your body is not complete anymore, but it's not because you came to this world, but before. However, the world of Central Continent has suppressed your essence even more, and with the help of the forbidden demon physique of the survivors, the body sent from you Therefore, spirituality was born in that crystal." Yun Shen said, "Although you are all self-generated life consciousness from the highest concentration of original power crystals in Central Continent, the environment of birth is different, the experience of growth and the guide are different. There are also obvious differences in the nature of your life. This difference makes it possible for your life form to be further improved."

Yun Shen's tone was as rational as when he was giving a report, and Melavia looked at him with eyes full of admiration.

"So you don't think it's cruel for you to devour each other." Yun Shen said, "As the stronger party, you undoubtedly have a greater advantage in the process of devouring, and even make your own consciousness in the newborn fourth generation It is not impossible to fully recover in the Dragon Lord... Is my perception wrong?"

Meravia smiled and said, "You're right."

"The characteristic of the 'Dragon Lord' is higher than that of the same race, that is, they can turn all tangible and intangible things into their own power. This is our instinct. The stronger we are, the stronger this instinct is. The reason why I can live in peace with you is because I have stripped a part of myself... This process is really a bit painful, although I think it is completely worth it. But obviously, my lifespan and my strength have been affected by it. big impact."

"The moment you establish a connection with the essence of life with him, you have become the human being who understands us best. And with the deepening of this connection, you have discovered through your own observations that the essence of the deep connection between you is to allow him to You grow for the matrix without having to bear the backlash of the group consciousness he has absorbed, and you use your extremely resilient soul to isolate him from all negative feedback, making him safer than the crystallization when he was still indestructible. He said to Yun Shen, "And the price you need to pay for this is that you become more like a tool day by day, and gradually lose your rich emotions as an individual. It sounds like you were trapped and parasitized by that child, becoming Became his exclusive nurturer, but..."

He looked at Yun Shen and said in an admiring tone: "However, you never lost yourself. Instead, you used this relationship to closely connect that child's growth with the changes in this world driven by you. He completely believes in you For the direction he chose, the more united the human race in Central Continent is, the more they admire and practice the philosophy you promote, the more adequate the supplies he will get, so even the second rift war has become a good opportunity for him to grow, It won't take long for him to transform naturally and step into a new stage of life."

"It's kind of unimaginable," Meravia said, "that you made such a decision when almost no one was aware of it, and made such an unbelievable vision a reality in front of you."

"You have done a lot of respectable work," he asked softly, "but what if it all comes down to oblivion?"
