Chapter Ninety-Eight: Personal Grudges
Joshua stared at the times.
With the opening of the Stargate connecting the Lost Galaxy and the Starting Galaxy, to the general public; With the space-time hub of the Ten Thousand Worlds Sacrifice Ground laid in various parts of the multi-galaxy; With the spread of transcendent knowledge, the national literacy rate has increased dramatically in the last 12 years, and more and more people have made up their minds to participate in the 'Star Expedition' and to participate in this fascinating era of exploration.
First of all, there are the numerous peasants. With the disappearance of the Central Black Forest, after the erosion brought by the Evil God of Abundance was eradicated, the fertile land that occupied nearly half of the entire Mycrof Continent appeared out of thin air, and all the plants and monsters in the Black Forest were wiped out in the great operation of the legendary powerhouses in the past to eradicate the Black Forest, turned into fertilizer, such a super-large farm, under the joint management and reclamation of the two legendary monsters and the assistants of the nature mentors, the outer monster 'Furry', turned into a super granary that is enough to supply tens of billions of people.
This has led to the extreme 'abundance' of basic resources in the world, and this overly prosperous agricultural development almost led to the 'decay' after that - a large number of peasants, accounting for more than half of the total population, can be said to be a direct cause, in the magic armor, large magic energy machinery brought about by the industrialization of agricultural magic energy, only one percent of the total population of the peasants can feed more than 10,000 times the population, so that ninety-nine percent of the peasants, more than one billion peasants have lost their vocation.
However, it is also because of the development of industrialization that the entire civilization machine is running at full power - under the technological leap brought about by the unified information base, countless factories and enterprises have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and they need not only highly educated employees, but also a large number of basic people to train workers. These may be the manufacture of consumer goods for light industry, the suppliers of raw materials for heavy industry, or the gigafactories for the manufacture of large ships such as the Void Battleship, all of which are in dire need of human resources, and these farmers who have lost their jobs have come at the right time.
An industrialized civilization will inevitably crush the small peasant system of the past, and the centralized and orderly agricultural management can feed as many people as possible with as few people as possible, and the surplus agricultural population of the past can become the initial cornerstone of industrialization.
In this process, there should have been countless stories of blood and tears, but the world where the transcendent is located, there is no need to make any sense at all, in the forced deployment of the legendary powerhouse, the placement arrangement of the priests directly under the seven gods, and even the direct arrival of the seven gods, coordinating every detail of this great evolution, almost at any cost, in the days when the expeditionary fleet galloped towards the multi-galactic river, the transformation of civilization was completed.
The current Mycrof continent is a huge industrial world composed of four coastal industrial circles and the central agricultural area, the Xishan region, which used to be quiet and serene, and is known for its ancient elegance, has completely become a heavy industrial area, under the auspices of the Roman, the dark world underground has also become an energy base for the use of magma energy, and the dark elves and gray dwarves who adapt to the high temperature and dim environment are the best workers.
The area where the Northern Empire was once located became the production base of warships and the largest military factory due to the existence of the Bant Plateau and the 'Void Babel Tower', while the Far South was the place where various light industries and processing industries were located. As for the Eastern Plains, there is a production base for parts and equipment, high-precision equipment, and the world's largest extraordinary laboratory, and the 'Garden of Truth' under the jurisdiction of the White Pagoda is located on the banks of the Serni River in the middle of the plain.
The whole world has almost completely changed from the sky, and the earth, which used to be invisible at night, is now full of lights that never go out.
This is the brilliance of civilization.
However, even a complete set of Void Civilization Industrial System cannot completely eat up all the surplus population, and the technology fueled by the integration of the big information base has greatly reduced the number of executive population required by each factory and enterprise, which is originally a good thing, but for Mrs. McCro, who cannot expand for the time being, it is a major event that has caused tens of millions of people to lose their jobs.
In this regard, the McCrof coalition government can only issue a 'pioneering order', open the stargate exchange, open the rights of small private void warships, open the colonization rights, naming rights, and development rights of the borderless world, and issue a complete tax exemption bill for five years for the transaction between the two worlds - a series of preferential policies that can only be said to be given away for nothing have arrived, which immediately attracted countless speculators...... Or maybe it's all about the adventurers.
All of a sudden, 'Plane Merchant', 'Galactic Trade Caravans', and 'Private Colonists' emerged one after another, and began to spread in the Jetrum Star Domain and various space-time hubs located in other galaxies.
Adventurers, speculators, colonists, Void merchants, and a large number of sub-service providers serving these large teams, the transit stations soon spread over a large number of star fields - of course, most people were reluctant to venture to the other world, but even a few decades ago, there were fewer adventurers, explorers and mercenaries in the world of Mycrof? Couldn't those caravans, caravans, and pioneers across the Black Forest just disappear like this?
Of course not, they changed their names and equipment, from the Earth-Walking Dragon Mount to a private exploration ship, from a simple gold-iron sword to a Cracking Ray Gun, from a thin cloth armor to an energy shield that could be activated by Dou Qi, magic power, and various transcendent powers.
The top-level productivity pulls the middle, the middle-level creates demand and pulls the lower-level, and the unreasonable transcendent world can change everything from top to bottom - of course, someone must lead the way.
Joshua could see that these traveling merchants, who thought that trade across the star field was not much more dangerous than trade across the Black Forest, were spreading towards the multi-star galaxy in the name of the Mycrof civilization, and they had advantages and disadvantages, whether they were fair trade, or they were taken by force, or they were courteous, or their heads were cut off...... Perhaps, for a big man like him who can subvert the galaxy, this is just an aftermath, but this is indeed a magnificent era.
So, what is their purpose for these adventurers?
Is it to open up the land that has long known the end?
Is it to climb into the sky where the border has long been known?
Is it to the void that belonged to the Glorious Age in the past?
No, it's not, it's not a process of Starfall Mycrof reclaiming the former territory and authority of Shining Mycrof, it's a new civilization, with the help of its predecessors, gradually forging its own path - this is an era of adventurers stepping into the unknown and embarking on new adventures.
And in this process, there must be countless outstanding people rising, there are countless strong people coming out frequently, Joshua believes that if such an era is in the past few decades, then there will definitely be a far greater number of legendary powerhouses than in the past, so that the Starfall Era will gradually reach the glorious era of the glorious era of the past.
Similarly, behind such a glorious era, there must be countless people behind the scenes to pay and lead.
Joshua turned her perspective to look at her relatives, friends, and disciples.
He could see that No. 3 was leading Hotaru, Rin, and Kuro, and Hikari, and the members of the Lord's Mansion were members of the 'World Renovation Engineering Team', teaching construction experience to many departments that had learned from experience, and hundreds of thousands of people had become apprentices to everyone, mastering the details of climate transformation and terrain transformation from the very beginning.
Joshua could see that in Jetrum's Void Laboratory, Karin, a former member of the first team, the daughter of the knight, was conducting research with countless colleagues on 'annihilation energy', which was a further 'annihilation energy' than 'annihilation weapons', under the leadership of the legendary powerhouse Faina, hundreds of core researchers, as well as tens of thousands of logistics personnel dedicated to serving this research institute are conducting experiments and research day and night, their purpose is to completely solve the world's energy problems.
Joshua could see that Nick, the dwarf who was once very interested in cooking, put his vision into all the materials of the multi-galaxy, he applied for research funds, and gathered a large number of colleagues from the former Wintercastle Academy, such as professional explorers such as Bell the Hunter, to start the research and numbering process of all the extraordinary materials of the multi-galaxy. This process is no less than the process of the sages of the past who tasted a hundred vegetables in the barbarian era, and found the truly useful herbs and extraordinary potions among countless poisons and weeds, and now, they have achieved a lot, and many potion materials that were once determined to be extinct have found new substitutes in the other world.
Joshua can also see that the former hunter siblings have taken different paths in the past few years, and the elder brother Ivan has become the founder of the empire's third intelligent alchemy puppet laboratory, and is now working under the Imperial External Exploration Department and the Strategic Development Department, that is to say, it directly belongs to the department led by Joshua and No. 3, and Ivan's job is to be responsible for researching and manufacturing various giant engineering equipment of the surface transformation level, and ninety percent of the transformation equipment in the previous saucer world was developed by the team he led. And her sister Amira is worthy of the name of genius, she has now broken through the soul of the extreme, and is now following Nostradamus, with this master of time and space through the world, experience the customs of countless civilizations, and build the most solid foundation for the future legendary road.
The dragon girl Lisa, the adventure group composed of the former Fire Demon Syndicate and the First Trumpet, has long sailed into the distance, at the invitation of the ambassador of the Lund civilization, Guevas, they went directly to the Lund civilization, and visited the ruins of the original warriors to subdue the stellar void beasts, and they were invited to visit one huge star after another - the Lund people are a highly adaptable race, even around the magnetar, they also build an observatory, which rotates with an infinite magnetic field, The release of a giant magnetic field in astronomical units undoubtedly had a great trigger for Lisa and the Syndicate, even the first number of steel elements had some understanding, so in this otherworldly civilization far away from their homeland, the two of them stepped through the window paper that was only one layer together, stepped through the threshold of the middle level of extreme intention, and officially entered the level of the strong.
And finally, one of Joshua's most special disciples, the former Seventh Prince of the Empire and the current Prince of the Empire, Alva, was the only one who did not go to the Plurality Galaxy, but returned to the Mycrof Continent and returned to the imperial capital of the Hurgamos Empire.
Joshua could see that in the depths of the Imperial Capital Morlai Palace, the former Second Prince, the current Emperor, the former Seventh Prince, and the current Prince, two men who were secretly hostile to each other and hated each other were confronting each other, holding each other, one sitting on the throne and the other standing in front of the main hall.
"How's it going, brother, how does it feel to be an emperor?"
"It's really terrible, brother, I can understand how my father felt back then."
The Emperor, Dimore Delmond, answered his brother's question with his eyes narrowed and his tone was flat, even with a hint of self-deprecation: "No revenge, no whims, no fight, no chance of a strike—the throne, the mediocre want to enjoy it, but the strong are bound by it." ”
Saying this, the handsome young man in the past, now this middle-aged man with a beard and the calm and majestic of an emperor slowly stood up from the throne, he looked down at his younger brother, and said slowly: "Father has been sitting in this position for decades? I finally understood why he felt like he was in a hurry to become a god, to throw the throne to me—the old guy who had abandoned his duties. ”
"My father didn't abandon his duties—he just jumped from one throne to a bigger god, and the people he needed to protect changed from an empire to a civilization, and his responsibilities only became heavier, heavier, and more breathless."
From the immature boy of the past, to the resolute adult of the past, Alva's body slowly floated, and he looked at his brother on an equal footing on the high platform, looking down on him, and he said calmly: "And you can do whatever you want—you are the emperor, and you have the right to do so." ”
But this sentence was greeted only by sneering.
"Huh."
Dimore looked at Alva indifferently, and he sneered, "Who do you think I am?" Am I a tyrant? Alva, I'm a human being at the end of the day, and I know what it means to be a hero and a guardian - don't think that you've learned what it means to be a hero and keep a promise, I've vowed to protect the Empire, just like my father, and I'll never break my promise. ”
Alva raised his eyebrows, and Dimore slowly descended from the high platform where the throne was located, causing him to slowly lower his height, and in the process, the current Emperor said as if talking to himself: "Many people say that the most important thing for a hero is to be responsible, responsible, and never go beyond the norm." Many people say that the most important thing for a wise man is to be wise and knowledgeable, not to interfere in national affairs with selfish desires, and never to violate the regulations set by himself. ”
"But I'm going to say, it's all fucking bullshit."
"Because the former is the foundation of being a good person, and the latter is also the foundation of being an emperor - they can't even do this, let alone heroes and Ming Jun, they can't even be considered the most basic 'good people'."
Dimore came to the bottom of the platform, and Alva stood on the earth again, the emperor stretched out his hand, and a long sword condensed with fighting spirit appeared in his hand, and the prince also exhaled, his palm covered with layers of translucent air armor.
"The most important thing for a hero is to have the strength to be a hero - and the most important thing for an emperor is the heart to lead the country forward."
It can be seen that at this time, Dimore's eyes seemed to be burning with fire, and he said in a deep voice: "What my father can do, I can also do, and what I can do in the future will definitely be better than the bad old man who has become a god!" ”
The invisible aura spread from Di Moore's body, and Alva's body also appeared powerful energy fluctuations, and the aura of the two collided, causing a violent wind in the entire palace inner hall, but this wind was only limited to the body, not only did it not trigger the alarm, but even one of the maids who was cleaning around did not alarm.
"Radical guy, I haven't changed you for more than ten years."
Sensing that his brother was still stronger than his own strength, the corners of Alva's mouth curled, I don't know whether it was to ridicule his arrogant brother's sneer, or the pure strong man encountered the joy of the strong, he just clenched his fists, and then said in a low voice: "So, it's going to start?" ”
"It's over."
Demoore said, then raised his sword.
The fire ignited, burning the curtain, rippling and distorting the light.
This court farce, which lasted for more than ten years and lasted for two generations, is about to usher in its final end-no matter who wins or loses, the two will abandon their past grievances and move towards the future era.
Joshua watched the scene—the battle between the new emperor and his brother, the strife that originated in the royal court struggle of the previous generation, the strife, the old empire cutting off the last traces of the past, Joshua could see that in the void, the descendants of Israel also flew in all directions, and there were political defeats, and they had to go to the other world, choosing to open up a new world; There are also those who travel around the galaxy with their younger brother with four goblins; There are also those who are worshipping as goddesses in the Garden of Truth by a large group of male technicians...... Everyone has their own destiny, whether it is a prince or a princess, or an ordinary adventurer and traveling merchant, everyone has their own journey.
Finally, Joshua cast his eyes on the seemingly endless multifaceted galaxy.
There, there seems to be endless civilizations, and endless worlds are surging.
Knowledge receivers are still wandering, searching for legacies that need to be safeguarded; The galaxy of bloody war fell silent, but it was probably only the quiet night before the storm; And on the far side, there are many civilizations that are fighting fiercely, they take each other, they hate each other, the evil group that swallows the sky sweeps the stars, and the peacekeeping group that fights violence with violence never compromises.
For intelligent civilizations and intelligent life, war probably occupies the vast majority of history, even if they have come to the void with almost endless resources, this cycle of abomination that induces evil gods will not stop, hatred is chaining, resentment is piling up, in the silent ruins that no one knows, there is chaos accumulating, waiting for the birth of the next day.
- The heavens and the stars, each in his own way.
The sound of darkness that will end all things is looming.
The Great Demon Tide has long been set off, the gears of the epoch have long been running, and in this sudden, but seemingly predetermined era, the power of fate pushes the giant wheel of history forward. The stars swirled and swirled, streaking bright lights through the void, and time faithfully recorded the trajectory of all this.
“…… These are the worst of times. ”
As if smelling the rich blood, smelling the smell of war and gunsmoke, the warriors who glanced at the multiple galaxies showed a calm smile from the heart: "It's also the best era." ”
He could see that the final strife was coming, the war that would end the war, the destruction that would eliminate the destruction.
He could see that the bottomless darkness had been lit up by his presence.
He can see that he is part of the stars of the heavens.
And very bright.
Deserved.
- Joshua never considered himself a savior.
Warriors never fight to save.
But Joshua never denied that he was just looking at the darkness, and he just wanted to light a little bright fire on the dark multiverse haze.
It's not justice, it's not salvation, it's not some messy guard, it's a human being, an intelligent life, a man born to fight, and the mastermind behind the scenes who tries to control everything, the personal vendetta.
"It's about the same time."
Joshua said to himself, connecting to the prayers and thoughts from the starry world far away.
"It's time to go."
