The public affairs grade examination—commonly known as the passing examination—is about to be reformed, and the number of passers in each batch may no longer be based on the grid line, but released on a proportional basis. When the news reached Boss, he Ordering a newspaper with Mona on the third floor of the Riverside Activity Center.There is a reading corner at intervals in the activity room. The brochures on the bookshelves are updated every month, and the newspapers are replaced with new bound volumes every week. Although today is a rare holiday, but Boss has developed the habit of doing something in his spare time. Binding newspapers is not a laborious job at all, and looking back at the contents of the past week's newspapers in this way is also quite inspiring for him.

Mona was very interested in his method of inspiration, and Boss explained to him while working.Although Mona is still the youngest centurion within the Sacher werewolves, with the continuous development of the industrial city, words like "centurion" are less and less mentioned, "centurion" "The vacant positions of the "Centurions" in the military base are also being transferred one by one. Mona is now working in the internal affairs department, and there is an urgent need for all learning methods that are conducive to work.

While they were talking, there was a burst of footsteps coming up from the bottom, and then a young werewolf rushed up to the third floor, flushed and excited, grabbed the person closest to him and began to talk excitedly At the words, that person was surprised for a while, and after hearing what the person conveyed to them, the nearby werewolves also became excited.The text of the draft was circulated indoors, and more and more werewolves joined the discussion. The cheerful and lively atmosphere in the activity room was ignited, and many werewolves began to fight. , the huge floor was noisy for a while, and people completely forgot all the setbacks they had suffered in this exam, and began to imagine how to make a big splash after leaving the industrial city, making achievements not inferior to those pioneers, or immediately swinging their hands. The soldiers went to the north, invincible all the way, countless tribes worshiped the wind, and Lacerda collapsed at the touch of a touch... Everyone here is their own, is it wrong to think about it?

So Perth Coldshan, what does that look of pity on your face mean?

"What I mean is," Boss looked around at his fellow werewolves, "the magician decides to pass the exam, the exam papers are reviewed by the magician, and the current exam reform is also proposed by the magician..."

He said sympathetically: "When did the technician relax the requirements in terms of study and work?"

The joyful atmosphere froze for a moment.As we all know, although a magician looks like that, he is especially reluctant in these two aspects. Those who can quickly stand out in their studies and work feel that they are forced to be good, and others can also because of the various items he formulated It cannot be said that they did not get happiness in the process of gaining benefits from the training rules. In fact, the happiness they feel from studying and working is incomparable to other activities, but... the more people respect and love this black-haired human youth, The more they don't want him to care about their ugly grades, although the magician can "always" help them think of a solution to the problem.

"That's better than staying in the city." Some people said unconvinced, and others echoed. Of course, Industrial City is not bad. There is no city in the world that can compare to her, but it is because it is so good. It's too comfortable, and the blood they are proud of fighting is cooling down, which is not a good sign - the knowledge reserve is slightly behind, if they can't even fight, how can they face the expectations of the magician and the patriarch?

"That's not what you guys said last year," Mona said. "I can't remember who it was, but the guys said, 'Whoever wants to go to the shitty places, this is our city. , we won't leave her for a single step'...can't we stay any longer?"

Someone let out an awkward laugh.

"We produce so many things in Industrial City," someone said, "There must be a place for them to be used. We are the ones who produce them. How to use them and who to use them should be up to us."

"Don't you need to save it and pass it on for generations to come?" Mona asked.

"As long as the factory continues to produce like this, we will never run out of these materials. We use labor to create something out of nothing, just like spring water." Another werewolf said, "And why save it? We are working, our offspring Don't have to work? Are they going to sleep on our wealth?"

"Then are you willing to give the things produced by your hard work to those northerners?" Mona asked, "To be like Xinmaxi City, we have to pay back for many years."

"Their land will become ours, and their people will also become ours," another person said, "We just let them withdraw future rewards in advance, and this is not a loss-making business!"

"If you put this self-awareness on the exam..." Boss said, "maybe a few more people will pass this time."

After quarreling for a while, the werewolves finally stopped. Some werewolves formed a group and went to the reading area in the corner to discuss the exam. Others put the matter aside temporarily and continued their fun in the activity room. Keep rolling, cards keep flying, models keep building - Boss doesn't blame those werewolves for still being playful, holidays are meant to be relaxing, and weekdays are the way to test their true quality.

Returning to the state where the two were together again, Mona, who had been mocking everyone just now, seemed a little worried, and he sighed.

"Are you going to take the next exam?" he asked Burth.

"Yes." Boss said that although he had some degree of exemption from the test, he didn't have to use it.

"Okay," Mona said, "I'm going too."

Boss saw his conflicted look, "This is voluntary, you don't have to go."

Mona hesitated for a moment, "I just don't want to part with Lan Lan. She has done a good job and will be able to take care of herself soon. The magician will definitely arrange her where she is most needed, but I don't know what it will be right now. Where... I hope not to be too far away from her."

Boss hesitated to speak. After thinking about it, he rationally let go of some taken-for-granted suggestions from the single wolf to the family wolf, and just patted him on the shoulder.

"You can pass the exam first and then submit a report to the higher ups," he said.

Mona hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"I'm going up to the fifth floor to see, are you going?" Perth asked.

Mona immediately cheered up, "Go, go!"

So they put the bound volume on the bookshelf, stuffed the stapler and other tools into the drawer, left the activity room, and went up to the fifth floor together.The corridor was empty, and there was no one there. It was a floor away from the activity room, and the sounds of people’s activities on the first and second floors had become indistinct. Boss took out the key and opened the door in front of him. Bright light came from Through the wide windows, a leopard man stood up from a corner of the room and walked towards them. He was the guard guard here.Boss and Mona greeted him, the guards sat down again, and Boss and Mona squatted down in place, looking at the ground.

On the ground is a very, very huge combined sand table. Various materials form mountains, plains, rivers, hills, terraces and other complex landforms in the range of dozens of steps long and ten steps wide. Walk through it along the curved path , you can see the complete face of the orc empire condescendingly, although many areas only piled up a basic shape due to limited information, and did not even color it, only put some digital flags to refer to the number of tribes and the racial characteristics of the orcs, but as The territory of the industrial city continued to expand, and the erosion of the bordering areas gradually deepened. These areas would also be like the other two-thirds of the orc empire, with no secrets at a glance.

In this wide space that occupies half of the floor, not only this giant sand table is arranged, but also large tables are placed between the bookshelves against the wall. There are also large and small sand tables on the table, and corresponding maps are hung on the wall. At a glance, one can clearly distinguish what these sand tables and maps represent—Kanlar City, Orbis King’s Capital, New Mahy City, Ridan City...Anyone who has a little bit of military common sense comes to Here, they will first be shocked by the accuracy and completeness of these sand tables and maps, and then they will be horrified by the ambitions represented by these maps.

The meaning of the precise map has never been to keep people from getting lost when walking outside. These things that are a secret of a country in other places are placed in this glass house majestically, guarded only by a lock and a young guard. Well, it's not that they don't know how to keep secrets or want to show off. The sand table in this space is the same as the sand table in the industrial school. For example, people who have always been distrustful and ignorant of human beings and have been unable to enter the new order for a long time, but they still have certain influence in their ethnic groups.The original version hidden somewhere behind the mountains not only has better production and more information, but also covers a wider area. Those maps not only depict the countries and regions where all the pioneers have set foot, but also the territory of the Elven Kingdom and the Central Empire. They are all hung in the reference room.

Although almost everyone who has been to Industrial City knows that the Alliance will make very accurate maps, and everyone who has studied in industrial schools can see the huge initial world map waiting to be completed on the screen wall of the square, but the amazing thing is , the longer they lived in the city, the less sensitive they became to the intentions behind these images.Although their scientific knowledge is increasing day by day, their labor skills are getting richer day by day, their understanding of themselves and others is getting better and better, and their interest in the nature of this world is also increasing day by day, but precisely because of this, they More and more, everything created by this city and the social order established by the magicians are regarded as the only reasonable in this world.

Once people who have adapted to life in the industrial city leave, they will be alienated from the outside world, and the conflicts between them and others cannot be bridged through mutual understanding in morality. People who have left the industrial city cannot live in the old world, and they They must go out again—as long as there are people who need them in this world.So they only have one way to solve these problems.

Persia and Mona stepped into the sand table path, a gray track protruded from the starting point, and they walked to the end of it, and a step away, a square city on the plain unfolded in front of them.

This is Kanlar City.

The former city wall was demolished, and the limbs of the city stretched around. The blocks representing the residential area have greatly surpassed the remains of the city wall. The urban functions have become more and more perfect, water treatment facilities have been established, and each urban area has its own garbage. At the processing point, the handicraft workshops are concentrated on one side of the city, and the other side is centered on the trade market. Today, the resident population of Kanlar has exceeded 3, and more than [-]% of the population of the neighboring tribes is concentrated. They are transported to the northern region through this place. , including tens of thousands of goods per month in many nearby human living areas, no matter who looks at it, Kanlar City can no longer be considered a small city.And in terms of trade ability, Kanlar City may be stronger than Industrial City.

This inevitably contributes to the complacency of some people, but still the same sentence, if there is no New Mahy City... the builders of Kanlar City should indeed be proud, the investment of the Industrial City here will be rewarded and prosperous. The large amount of trade has concentrated a large number of people and wealth here, and many small and medium-sized tribes are eager to have a place in this city. Its roots have grown firmly on this important land, and have produced a great impact on the other half of the Orc Empire. huge impact.The construction of Kanlar City is very good. However, in the evaluation criteria of the value of the industrial city, the trade volume is not the first. If the industrial city intends to carry out any actions in the northern region, at present, the city can only be used as a Pedal, not as a backing.

It's not just a matter of supplies.

Boss used the pointer to point out several possible directions for the military forces of Industrial City to enter the northern region. Assuming he was the commander of the battle, what weapons would they use, what tactics would they adopt, how would they ensure logistics, and how should they deal with it? Prisoners, before they knew it, the guards guarding the map room squatted beside them.

Then the young Leopard couldn't help but ask, "Why doesn't Industrial City want the help of those tribes?"

"Why do we need their help?" Mona asked.

The leopard man looked at Mona and made sure he wasn't blaming himself with rhetorical questions, and then said: "We fight the war, but they can sit back and enjoy the benefits. It's not fair."

"We're at a disadvantage by letting them join the war," Mona said.

"why?"

"Because our good compatriots have one part of the credit, they will want ten parts of the benefits." Mona said, "After all, the Industrial City already has everything, and there are many more, so they will say why be stingy and give them more How about a little? They are also working hard."

The Leopard man whispered: "Industrial City already has everything. Most of the tribes are very poor."

"Because we can't make this kind of human life transaction. If you just want to show your loyalty to the Industrial Alliance, they have many other ways not to hold us back." Boss said, "Lacerda's false king is cruel and ruthless , there is no faith, any orc should oppose his rule, just like those orc nobles parasitic on the empire, but many tribes are only against the false king, not the empire... If it is not for the benefits given to them by our industrial alliance Too many have taken the lead, and they may want to kill us more than the false king of Lacerda."

"How come?" The young leopard man couldn't help but screamed, but his expression changed the next moment - he seemed to have remembered something.

"Why not?" Mona said, "Is there any city richer than the industrial city in this world? If we exchange it for gold and silver at the trade price, what we produce in a month can be exchanged for the wealth of a country But the Industrial Alliance guards the spring of Industrial City, and is only willing to share a few drops to moisten the tribe. These drops will be exchanged with slaves and tribe children, and those children only need to stay in Industrial City for a few months , they will become completely unlike tribal people, not only start to say some things they don’t understand, but they are not even willing to fight for the honor of the tribe..."

He stopped and looked at the young leopard man, who was already flushing.

He seems to have hit something... It's not surprising that it hit the mark. This Leopard young man came from a small tribe in a barren mountain range. He was able to enter the industrial city because of the apportionment quota, and now he can become the guard of the map room. , may not be so smart, but it must be reliable.

In the industrial city and the tribe, you will definitely choose the reliability of the industrial city.

"But, it's something given to us by the Industrial Alliance," the Leopard man argued, "it's impossible for the beast king in the north to give it to us! They don't have an industrial city!"

"Industrial City was built on the basis of the Sacher tribe, but if there were only Sachel, the Industrial City would not appear in another 1000 years." Boss said, "The establishment of this city requires many machines and many smart people. , and most importantly, a unique magician is needed."

He looked at the leopard man, "Half a month ago, in the city of Kanlar, someone wanted half the empire as a reward, and wanted the werewolf in Kanlar to sneak into the industrial city, find the magician, tie him up and send him to the north .”

The leopard man exclaimed: "What?!"

"There are more than one or two orcs who have infiltrated into the industrial city and were killed by us instead of trying to do so." Mona said, "Even in our tribe, there are a lot of people who regret it to death, and think that they should have been killed by the magician just now." When we came to Sasheer, we caught him and locked him up, and let him become our thing, so what about human beings and your tribes?"

"How can you think so?" The leopard man was startled and angry, "Aren't you afraid of offending the magician?"

Mona coughed, "Hey, that's a thing of the past."

In fact, no, there are still people who think so, but so what?What can they do now?

"We shouldn't be unfavorable to the magician, as long as the magician is there, the industrial alliance will exist." The leopard youth whispered, "Even your Scar Nightmare can't be admired by everyone like the magician Yes. And he's too powerful."

"Lacerda and the northern tribes will not be his opponents." The young Leopard tribe said in awe, "As long as he wants, he can rule the entire empire, which is something that no one else can do .”

They looked at the sand table again, and Lacerda was at their feet. The capital city was located on a platform surrounded by mountains.

Mona asked the Panther: "Have you ever been to Lacerda?"

The young leopard man shook his head.

"Looking at this royal city like this, how do you feel?" Mona asked again.

"It seems... very small," said the Leopard Man. "It just sits under my feet. It looks easy to destroy."

"I haven't been to Lacerda either, but I feel the same way," Mona said. "Sometimes I wonder if we are too proud and underestimate our opponents, but sometimes I feel, We are not proud enough to treat them as opponents."

They should treat every enemy with caution, and they should keep some enemies alive so that they can clear their minds and not be dazzled by the achievements in front of them.But now they can't wait.

Why did they have to keep such a stupid opponent?Their real enemy should always be themselves. If it weren't for the rapid development of New Mahy City, those who were the first to receive the teachings of the magician might not realize that they have fallen into the trap of being vigilant but actually comfortable. The orcs in Zelda thought it was the tastiest morsel on the plate and wanted to save it for last.But it's just a big stick bone.

There is not much meat, but it takes up a lot of space.

When the pioneers walked out of the industrial city and began to explore the outside world, including the pioneers themselves, they never thought that they would be able to achieve what they are today, and many people even did not think that they would intentionally become enemies with others.But there are some roads that once you set foot on, you will not turn back, and you will not want to turn back.

A few days later, the map room was full of people, tall or short, fat or thin, old or young, with tattoos all over their skin. Nearly a hundred tribal chiefs stood in the map room, with the sand table in front of them. Unfolding, the tall figure of Scar Nightmare is at the forefront, everyone is silent, only Scar is talking, he said: "Slow. It's really too slow."

He walked forward, not along the sand table path, but strode directly across the sand table, leaving footprints on the weak materials, and in front of the city of Kanlar, he stopped briefly and kicked kicked it.

"Humph."

He went on, crossing mountains and rivers, and stepped onto the plateau.

"The orcs want to compete with humans." He stepped into Lacerda, and the city walls crumbled to powder under his feet. "We prove that we are not an inferior race by competition. But before that, we must compete with our fellow humans. Orcs The empire—its glory ended 200 years ago, and now it exists in name only.” The frost condensed, and with a slight creaking sound, the blue ice climbed up and covered the entire city, Scar turned to look at the silent tribal leaders.

"Before he speaks, I want you to make a choice," Scar said, his words as sharp as his eyes, and he sneered, "Tell me now, idiots, you're going to be his, Or his enemy?"

The blue ice turned into a puff of smoke, Lacerda on the sand table collapsed, and the tribal leaders were in an uproar.
