Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

"Sir and Madam, according to the latest regulations, you have failed to complete the production of goods more than three times this month, resulting in a lack of some goods in the block. Please make up for it immediately within today. If you cannot make up, we will have to arrest you. "

Several PLCs knocked on the door of a house. The couple in the house looked horrified, and the husband immediately shouted.

"Last month the output was not at this level, but this month why was it increased for no reason?"

"Didn't I already say that? All communities will change according to the daily demand of the number of people in the community. This month, many people have moved into the community, and the demand has increased."

Suddenly my husband became even more angry.

“It’s unreasonable to allocate such a large amount to us when demand increases.”

A PLC laughed.

"Everyone is like this, sir and madam. I hope you can replenish the missing goods to the community supply stores as soon as possible."

Faced with PLC's ruthlessness, the husband grabbed PLC's clothes.

"You can't do this? We already work more than 4 hours a day now. Together, our husband and wife work maybe 10 hours a day. If we continue to increase production, our workload will become larger. And why not let the new people participate? ?”

The PLC who was grabbed pushed her husband away and then laughed.

"New residents have not been included in the statistics for the time being. They will be adjusted soon. Please keep working hard. It will only take up to six or seven hours a day."

Nowadays, production capacity has been increased for no reason in most parts of the country. Many people have complained, but to no avail.

Nowadays, many people have moved to spacious and comfortable neighborhoods. Because the price of houses is now affordable to everyone, some communities have been emptied out. Those old communities have become increasingly deserted.

As the people who move there need to slowly adapt to the calculation of production capacity, they cannot be included in the community planning until the production capacity is calculated.

There are now widespread complaints, and many people have reached the limit of their patience with their current joyless life. Some people even started to protest and gather, but they were soon arrested.

Those who are unwilling to do it will be gathered together and forced to produce materials. If they still don't do it, they will be escorted underground to forced labor. Many people feel terrible because some people are really sent underground.

Many people have no idea what Tommy is going to do. Many words on the Internet cannot even be published now. Some media companies have almost completely closed down. Many people are now realizing that things are far beyond their imagination.

It’s not that there is anything wrong with this era, but it is too boring because there are fewer and fewer things for human beings to entertain themselves.

The shops on the street are empty. Although there are some entertainment facilities, these facilities cannot provide much pleasure to humans, because humans need to repeat the same work every day, and it must be completed.

There will be a rest day when the work is completed. If it is not completed, there will never be a rest day. People are completely tired of such mechanical work.

"Why is this? We don't have any time to enjoy life anymore. We have to worry about today's production capacity every day. We are not robots."

Near a community, a large number of PLCs maintain order in the community. People in the entire community are opposed to such manufacturing every day and ask to reduce their production capacity, but it is obviously of no use.

"The rules are the rules. This is already a very small amount. If you still can't complete it, we can only arrest everyone."

This community has not produced any goods for three days. The shelves in several stores in the community are all empty. Many people are even hungry and seem to want to protest to the end.

The PLC had no choice but to make a choice. As conflicts broke out, many people began to be arrested.

There were no reporters at the scene, and many people passing by took pictures with their equipment. However, they found that they could not upload it at all. Even as soon as they were uploaded, the videos and photos on their mobile phones were inexplicably destroyed.

This kind of thing seems extremely terrifying to many people, because now they have completely lost their freedom and can only become a screw.

President Tommy will give some speeches every now and then, mostly talking about the construction of underground shelters and some things about the Steka soldiers.

Tommy no longer talks about what happened. Many people feel that the country is now at a standstill, and the news is even becoming more and more closed.

No one knows what this means, but one thing is for sure: a sense of fear is spreading throughout the country.

12:30 noon.

Tommy put down the crystal screen in his hand, then stood up and said.

"This speed is still too slow. The storage capacity of underground materials must be increased to provide more for everyone in every community."

At this time Susan stood up and said.

"Mr. President, most people are now working five or six hours a day at their limit. If we continue to increase the production capacity of supplies, it will only overwhelm many people."

Tommy looked at Susan and then said.

"Minister Susan, I don't want to hear this. I just want to see production capacity increased. Please cooperate with other departments."

Everyone in the conference room was in a depressed mood. They felt extremely depressed. The entire country was now overwhelmed.

"I know you think my approach is not very humane, but when the war comes, you will know why we have to stock up on supplies so quickly."

After Tommy finished speaking, the ministers stood up one after another. They could only do as Tommy said, and Tommy turned and left the office.

"Isn't it enough?"

Justin stood at the door with solemn eyes. He listened to the whole meeting and felt his scalp numb. Now Tommy is completely different from before. This system that seems to be good for many people is now extremely painful. .

"Director Justin, if you don't want to do this, please resign early. We don't need too many upper-level managers anymore."

After Tommy finished speaking, he walked into the office, where Ash was already waiting.

"Get all the Stekas underground. We need to finish it as soon as possible."

Ash said with serious eyes.

"Currently, there are also voices of opposition among Steka's ethnic group. They feel that they have completely become slaves to humans."

Tommy sighed and sat down.

"There's nothing we can do about it. You know it. We have to make all preparations as soon as possible. Otherwise, when war comes, we won't have any time and opportunity to prepare everything."

Ash sighed helplessly.

Now a large number of Stekas have gone underground, and they are constantly working underground. Many jobs in human society have disappeared, so the Stekas can only work underground.

The underground facilities have been completely connected because of the Stikas. All that needs to be done now is to build the underground facilities.

"I will go back today to find a way to get as many Steka underground as possible."

Tommy nodded.

"If some people are unwilling to continue producing materials on the ground, then let them go underground. It is also good to familiarize themselves with the conditions underground earlier."

Ash asked.

"Is this going to spark a bigger conflict?"

Tommy said.

"We are going to march in a few months. Do you think we need to consider this?"

Ash shook his head.

"It is true that we have no time. The relationship between Brilliant City and Asgard has deteriorated, and they are very likely to break off diplomatic relations. Now we must race against time to make all preparations before Asgard starts to launch a war. "

Tommy nodded.

"According to the current technological level of Bright City, if they want to attack us, they will only need a day or two to reach our coastline. The underground facilities have been operating for hundreds of years, and the nuclear energy has been exhausted. We do not have the ability to produce large-scale Destructive weapons are coming, so once we are attacked, I am afraid we will be defeated step by step."

He asked as Ash nodded.

"Can't we build some nuclear bombs?"

Tommy shook his head.

"Although there are still some materials that can be made, this weapon is meaningless in this era. Not only can it not cause large-scale damage to the enemy, but it will affect ourselves and consume energy."

Ash watched Tommy pull up the files. From the files, it was clear that their current production capacity was far from enough to support the war, because humans now only work three or four hours a day, or even less.

"They will have the motivation only when war officially comes."

“What if there is a civil unrest?”

Ash asked and Tommy said.

"I will deal with the person who caused the riot in an instant without any hesitation. Do you still have any doubts, Ash?"

Ash thought for a moment and asked.

"If the gods attack us directly after the war starts, are we really capable of dealing with it?"

This is the biggest doubt in Ashe's mind right now, because Ashe knows the power of the gods, Tommy said with a smile.

"Please rest assured, I have a foolproof way to deal with them. No matter how powerful the power of God is, it is not unlimited. As long as they do not have unlimited power, then I can deal with them and even hold them back."

Ai Xi nodded. Everything Tommy considered was extremely safe and there was nothing wrong with it. Now he just needed to accumulate strength step by step.

Tommy said and began to issue a presidential order. Soon a phone call came and Tommy picked up the phone. After a pause, he laughed.

"Three states refused to accept my order!"

Ashe's face was solemn, Tommy took off his coat, and then turned around. Fan particles dispersed in the air, and in an instant Tommy was standing in a conference room.

"Such an order simply makes people's lives worse than death. We have to do it"

Bang bang bang.

Tommy clapped his hands and laughed. For a moment, everyone in the conference room looked at Tommy and Tommy in astonishment. They are national workers in this state.

"Everyone, since you have rejected my order, from today onwards you are no longer state workers."

Immediately everyone's mobile phones received the news of their dismissal, and everyone was stunned for a while.

"You will be sent underground to start working underground until the war is over."

For a moment, a bunch of people in the conference room became angry, and someone shouted.

"You are a dictator, you are letting this country gradually die. You will definitely be punished for your wanton behavior."

There was a moment of disapproval, and Tommy closed his eyes, then glanced at everyone.

"Since everyone is against me, then everyone is a destabilizing factor in this society."

Pink particles immediately enveloped everyone, and before anyone had time to react, they had already arrived on the dark sea.

"Guys, this is how I deal with instability."

There was a popping sound, and a person fell into the dark sea. Suddenly, screams rang out, and Tommy disappeared without even looking at these people.

After a while there was no sound on the sea, and only floating bodies remained.

At 1 o'clock in the afternoon, Tommy returned to the conference room. Ashe's face was solemn. Tommy had already issued a list of leaders of new national staff in three states.

"Such a simple approach is indeed a bit too cruel."

Ash muttered and Tommy shook his head.

"These people who have already raised objections cannot turn back. Instead, they will gather together and become a minority. Most people are not dissatisfied with the current system because most people's living conditions have been improved. Very big improvement, only a small minority of people are dissatisfied, that's the status quo."

After Tommy finished speaking, he looked at Ash, and he walked over and said.

"I'll take you there."

Ash shook his head.

"I can just fly back by myself. After all, I have to think about something."

"Our confidence cannot be shaken. Once it is shaken, there will be changes in the future."

Ash nodded and he shook his head.

"I don't think my confidence will be shaken. After all, the future world belongs to you, and you are the one who will bear everything in the end. I can't stand this."

Tommy smiled and nodded, and after Ash left, Tommy returned home.

"Honey, things seem very bad right now."

His wife Selina came over, and Tommy hugged her comfortingly.

"Sorry, dear, we must accumulate enough strength for this war now, otherwise if we lose the war, our entire country will cease to exist."

Selina leaned quietly in Tommy's arms. She knew that Tommy had done a lot of things in private, but she still chose to believe Tommy unconditionally.

"Don't worry. When the war is over, everything will return to the way it was before. I promise, it's only temporary now because we need a lot of war materials."

Tommy looked at the busy people coming and going outside the window and smiled happily, because the next stage would be tougher, and Tommy had to do this for a constant supply of weapons and ammunition.

"My dear, after the war is over, will it really change back?"

"I promise!"
