Take Taobao with you to another world

"Thank you," Yun Shen said, "This job is not easy."

"I'm just saying what they already know. So much has been prepared before, another dog can do the same." Scar said, "On the contrary, you..."

He said sincerely, "You'd better live longer."

Yun Shen smiled and said, "I will try my best."

"Is 50 years enough for you?"

"Human life has an end." Yun Shen said, "Maybe before that, my career has failed."

"Just stepping into the battlefield and saying you failed?"

"The probability of failure is still very high." Yun Shen said, "According to some 'past experiences' I've heard, exploration results that skip too many 'natural stages' are generally not very good."

"But don't you still do it?"

"Yes, I still want to do this." Yun Shen said, "Because I chose this path, so before I saw my career was suspended and everything regressed back to the state where nothing changed, before those young people I won't admit I've failed until I say they've given up, until I close my eyes forever."

In the conference hall, the tribal leaders faced the pile of documents and forms left by Scar in distress, and the tea mug at the hands of the explainers surrounded by them had been filled with water several times; in the office, Scar put down his pen and moved about Walking over his shoulder to the window, he saw one of the persons in charge of the power plant, a bereaved man named Xuanhou, walk out of the administrative building with a strange smile on his face that might be called "long-cherished wish fulfilled"; People in iron-colored overalls passed him by, men and women, old and young, and when their eyes intersected, they and Xuanhou signaled to each other, they walked into the building and climbed up the steps; Lavia leaned against the railing, her silver hair fluttering in the wind, and she looked into the depths of the sky.

While waiting for the next batch of visitors, Yun Shen turned to a new page in his notebook. There was a knock on the door, and the administrative secretary opened the door, and then people filed in. Even though they looked clean, they still smelled of iron and oil. breath.The smell says something about their occupation.

Yun Shen asked them to sit on the sofa opposite.

"I invite everyone here today because I want to ask for your opinions on an important matter," he said.

The expression of people listening changed from respect to concentration.Outside the window, under the clear sky in autumn, the colorful fields roll with gentle waves, and the faint fragrance of the white rong flowers, which bloom almost all year round, seems to have soaked every inch of the land here. The thick shade reflects the clear lake water, and the rows of green trees Gray roads lead in all directions, connecting many scattered white buildings together.

A silver steel road meanders out of the hills again, connecting this quiet land with the industrial city half surrounded by huge factories.

Although the layout of the city is clearly defined, and there is a clear division between the living area, functional area and production area, from the window of the school office, one can only vaguely see the huge factory reflecting the sun in the distance, such as forest chimneys, huge Large and small tanks, large and small pipes and tracks form a behemoth entrenched on the ground. Its strong sense of presence is like the smell of soot diffused into the air due to the city's traffic system all the time.

Xiu Moore, who had just finished a traditional military class, turned his eyes back from the window.

"Seeing this city, seeing that piece of steel forest," he said with a smile, "How many people are still willing to stick to tradition and live a life that is not much different from wild animals? Everything is an excuse for bargaining. These tribal leaders also Not so stupid, at least they are not so stupid as to form an alliance to ask that person for a price, otherwise they are really finished. Although it is also possible that they really don't know? If they dare to do this, to the 'artist' To put it simply, it’s like when reclaiming a wasteland, you have to remove the stones on it first, and burn the miscellaneous trees and weeds...the trouble is to keep them well.”

"They procrastinate and are very annoying. Neither want nor dare." His temporary assistant, the young werewolf Mona complained, "Our patriarch will have to come forward in the end."

"This is what he should do. Otherwise, how can you show that a leader is necessary?" Hummer said, "I don't think there are many of you who are willing to deal with the magician directly. Speaking of which, I once thought he was just a saint. If the Rift War starts again, with him, there will definitely be some new legends." He said with a smile, "Obviously I guessed wrong."

"What did you guess wrong?"

"He said he was a sower," said Hugh Moore, "but what grows out of the ground is not only factories, schools, and food, but also the source of disaster. I also thought that he changed the order so drastically and promoted civilization. To prepare for the fissure demons in the future, but this is actually the cause of the opposite effect."

"His direction is, in fact, his purpose," he told Mona.

"...What?" Mona was confused, "Are you talking about a magician?"

"Of course I'm talking about him." Hummer said, "I think fate is really miraculous. It not only allows me to wake up 200 years later, but also allows me to witness the turning point of history again. Although we now think that magicians can give People who have brought about great changes in this world, but before the New Marsh City, all we could imagine were dynastic changes and the like, but even that New Marsh City, I don’t think it reached the level of a sorcerer. Half of the real wish... But you see, it's like a stone thrown into stagnant water, and it has made such waves!"

"Of course the magician is very powerful!" Mona said immediately.

"From the beginning of a trade team to firmly occupying an important stronghold, and then using this as a basis to shake a country's foundation, the time it takes is shorter than formally preparing for a war. As for the number of people dispatched... I am afraid it is very short It’s hard to find a more disparity than this, where less wins more.” Xiu Moore said in a daze, “The most important thing is that these few people who also won the battle supported the operation of a country, and this is the greatest miracle It is the magician who taught these people, so it can be considered that he single-handedly moved the entire western world. After driving the two wedges of Fusong Port and Xinmaxi City-they have been firmly established It is difficult to be destroyed, and it will take more than ten years to devour and digest the countries and regions where they are located, just like the spread of ink, and eventually they will merge with the orc kingdom integrated by him to form an unprecedented, huge and powerful empire. Looking down on the entire continent - that is a scene that even Samuel has never imagined, but for this human being, it may just be as natural as walking up the steps..."

Mona's mouth was slightly opened, and he was also fascinated by the sound.Young people are always fantasizing, not to mention that this is not a distant and difficult to achieve, but a career that he is participating in.

"Do you know what this means?" Xiu Moore looked at the young man and asked softly.

"It means we are the strongest!" Mona clenched his fists, "We will definitely be able to do it!"

Xiu Moore laughed and looked at him lovingly: "Fool. This means that he will be an enemy of the whole world. And you, the dependents in the eyes of others, may be more evil than the fissure demons."

"what?"

"Since mortals can't refuse the power and wealth he brings, naturally they can't refuse the war he brought. Silly boy, what do you think his pioneers established in the human realm, in the orc empire? Do you think those Is the leader so resistant to the transformation of the tribe because he is old and stupid and unable to learn new things? You are too young to know that for many people, what is more terrible than losing their life is losing their power. The new Every step of order expansion will bring war, because the result of war is not the old power replacement. In traditional wars, even if the king is changed, the nobles are still nobles. Even if you kill all the old nobles, the new The nobles will still appear like mushrooms after the rain. Except for the different surnames, what they will do is the same as the ones you killed. But look, are there any nobles in New Marsh City? Yes, but how different are they now from animals that are kept in captivity for human viewing? No matter what they say in the papers, it’s not going to change anything.”

"Of course, in an order like the New Marsh City, other things may be born, but the nobles must be eliminated. In order not to lose their land, wealth and status, they will definitely try their best, Use your strength to fight against the coming of your own doomsday. Your present victory does not mean eternal victory. After all, they are still very powerful. Although you mean the future, they still occupy almost the entire world. Notice you vicious bad boys," said Hummer, "but it's not a big problem. Can you realize that two social structures and two modes of production cannot coexist on the same land, and your technique The Master is probably more concerned with this. He should have known very well from the beginning what the consequences of these things he brought from the world he lived in would cause. But it is obvious that he never faltered for a moment. I thought his The plan that always seems too far ahead is to fight the Rift Demons, but in fact, whether they will appear when he is alive or not, the war that was born because of him will spread everywhere with your footsteps."

"Competition." Xiu Moore sighed, "How correct and the only correct direction! The war of blood and fire is competition, the spread of language and writing is war, and the exploration and change of nature is even more competition. The decision is made by Which group will rule the world and where is the future of mankind? This is a higher competition. Competition is the instinct of all life! Since he came, the war in this world will not only be changed in form, but also in nature. From now on, the outcome of a war will not only determine the ownership of land and population, but also determine the survival of civilization. Once defeated, not only the old rulers will be expelled, but everything they have created will also be thrown into history. Garbage dump. A lord or king encountering this fate may be just another reincarnation of the traditional order in their eyes, but when the same thing happens ten, hundred, or even a thousand times, they know that a monster that has to be eliminated born."

He looked meaningfully at Mona with bright eyes.

"But is it possible for you to escape from this war, or to go against him?"

"Of course not!" Mona exclaimed. "That's what we want! We...I like this!"

Xiu Moore laughed and sighed a little, "Yes, young people like this, and he must know it too. Compared with saving the world and liberating others, you are more willing to fight for such a goal."

In order to win, to prove individual, racial, and civilized superiority, they will transform themselves, and thus the world, with great enthusiasm.Because before he came, young people's minds were almost blank, they took it for granted that powerful and complex new things, and believed that the order that could create all these things was naturally correct and reasonable.

Hummer didn't think the magician was too arrogant to distort reality, because the industrial city was not an illusion.And, if there is no such arrogance and the will to distort reality, how can you become the co-lord of all races!

Those young men who believe in him will spread his truth like a flame...

So, will he put the reins on them?

If so, what iron law will he mold for them?

On the edge of the city like a checkerboard, under the shining glass curtain wall, a big river flows, a steel bridge spans the two sides, the train rumbles past the bridge deck, the whistling siren echoes between the sky and the earth, and the steel track keeps moving forward Extending, in the new residence No. [-] surrounded by golden fields, Ella the leopard finally decided to visit the working group of the residence. If these new residences are like fruitful fruits on the railway line, then the largest one at the end of the railway line Although it has been supported by it, it has not been able to really connect with this surging artery so far, but the moment of blood connection is not far away. The crowd is like a colony of ants, and the machine is roaring with hookah on the construction site. shape is clearly identifiable.

Passing through those straight streets, crossing the re-planned and well-structured urban area and the bustling crowd in the market, leaving this prosperous city of Kanlar, against the wind from the plateau, going deep into the kingdom of orcs, the relationship between man and nature is in the The other half of the country has returned to its original shape.Among the dense vegetation, the winding ancient road has deep ruts, the light convoy from Kanlar meets the huge convoy driving livestock in the north; tribes, large and small, are scattered in the wilderness, human footprints and wild beasts Staggered, wild beasts hunted for survival in the deep forest and dense grass, and were hunted or expelled by people holding spears and bows and arrows. They carefully recovered the shining metal spearheads and arrows from their prey; The waiting women and old people walked out of the thatched huts, happily greeted the prey brought back by the warriors, and wedged sharp knives into the tough flesh; they continued to walk north, and the wind brought more bloody breath, and the road was sparsely populated. The herbivores in the field became more vigilant than usual. The orc army divided into two camps faced each other across the battlefield. Outside the continuous tents, soldiers walked around the camp, with knife marks on their armor and murderous eyes.

The war between the Horde Alliance and the Orc King's Court was temporarily suspended, but the hatred was still raging.The emissary team from the industrial city had left the main tent of the chiefs and was heading towards the royal city.When they finish their mission and head home, the new wind direction will determine the final outcome of this war.

The envoys looked at the huge platform that appeared behind the highland. The towering rock mountain was like an endless wall. Looking to the left and right, there was almost no end in sight. The royal city was at the top of this magnificent rock. Looking at it from this distance When I went there, I could only vaguely see some shadows that might be city walls in the clouds and mist.

"I remember... this stone doesn't seem to be so short, and that city is not so small," said a werewolf in the team, "Maybe I remembered wrongly."

"Someone is coming," said the black-haired captain.

They walked down the hill to the team that had come out of the royal city to meet them.

The march to the court of the orcs will blow the wind.

When the mature autumn wind blew across the Orc Empire, the air in the Principality of Ridan already brought the coolness from the end of the world. The high antenna was bathed in the autumn sun, and the autumn wind carried the fallen leaves to the windowsill, and the thick glass windows separated There was a sound of the wind, a suitcase-like radio was placed under the window, and the current Grand Duke of Zidan was sitting on a bench, leaning over to look at him, the living room was almost full of people, no one spoke, only the sound came from the black speaker. The sound shook the air.

After a while, the broadcast ended. In the soft melody before the start of the next program, the current Grand Duke said softly: "The Industrial Alliance is about to announce a major decision... This is really an unprecedented forecast. Is the magician going to move?"

As invisible electric waves spread in the air, the same message vibrates the sound unit through thousands of semiconductors, whether it is an orc under a mud roof, a businessman in the cold wind of the north, a laborer on the seashore or on the river bank, Workers who are resting, or nobles who are cursing, or in that far away place, in the Shenguang Forest of the Central Empire, sitting in a tree house, swinging the antenna of the radio to the elves on the tower, or in the humid and hot south of the Empire In the mud fortress, the bereaved youths who almost had their ears glued to the radio heard the same prediction.

"Is the Industrial Alliance deciding to wage war on the Orc King's Court?"

"Is Scar Nightmare the one who decides to be king?"

"Is it that humans want to break with the orcs?"

"Is the industrial alliance finally going to step out of the orc empire and build an industrial empire centered on magicians?"

Different speculations from different positions circulate among the crowd, and the huge, one-way information network connects people to the common anchor point of the Industrial Alliance, but this channel does not reduce the mystery of the Industrial Alliance-Industrial City-Artist. No matter what the radio broadcasts say day and night, people are still confused about many issues, and they are no less confused than the poor sacrifices with whom they are blindly hostile.Not only those who come into direct and indirect contact with the Industrial Union have a hard time understanding the sudden new thing, even its members, even those who have laid a solid foundation for it and set up its banner in foreign countries. The builders are also not sure where the next step of this community of steel bones, steam blood, and people from another world at its heart will go.

Though some of them have felt signs, they have seen, they have touched, they have read books, they have heard words spoken by someone, The way to approach it was practiced, but they were still not sure when it would come.

In New Mahic City, the slightly tired Bishop Seris said to the members of the working group in the meeting room: "Very good, I must thank everyone here, I can't think of a better preparation than this."

"Since this plan has been approved by you," said the team leader, "then we will set off in three days."

"Material preparations will be in place soon," the deputy team leader said. "Before then, Bishop Selis, please rest well."

"Okay, I will, thank you very much for your work." Bishop Selis said, he hesitated for a moment.

"Is there anything else you need?" a female team member asked.

"No, it's not what I need." Bishop Selis said, "I've heard that... your central city is about to announce a big event, and this event is very likely to affect everyone in this city. Important influence, I have heard some discussions, could it be... Or, New Mahy City will be outside of this?"

"Of course the new Marsh City is also in this reform." The team leader said, "But there is nothing to worry about, we are ready. It will not affect the reconstruction plan of Orson County."

The group members stood up one after another, the meeting was over, and the group leader invited Bishop Seles: "The time for the announcement is coming soon, and you can listen to it in your own room, but we think you must be sure after listening to it." There will be some problems, why not come with us tomorrow?"

"Of course, yes, yes."

Bishop Selis let himself have a good sleep, which was a bit difficult for an old man with many worries, but he took a long walk after dinner, almost halfway around the city, and After listening to a class in night school, when he returned to the hostel where he lived, the students on duty in the duty room were already discussing how to find him.He drank half a glass of wine before finally laying down in bed.

When I woke up from a deep sleep, the sky was already bright.Bishop Selis looked at the clock in the room to make sure he didn't miss anything, including breakfast.

After breakfast, he left for the place he had agreed with the working group. Before leaving the guest house, he saw that the radio in the duty room had been turned on. Today's duty student had cleaned up the table and put paper and pens at hand.As he walked on the road, the number of people around him quickly changed from small to large. He was like a drop of water flowing into a river, surrounded by waves of people with some expectation, some tension and excitement, from the small road to the main road , and branched from the main road, people walked to different assembly points, among the workshops and schools they were familiar with.

It's a weekday, but with no work scheduled this morning, most of the city's work is on hold for that big decision that's about to be announced.Bishop Selis walked into the school, and he saw that every classroom was full of people, and the students were only a part of them. More people registered their names and walked in from the gate, and they walked towards the opposite side of the classroom in groups Auditorium and meeting rooms.

The old bishop soon saw the members of the working group who were waiting for him. They walked into a conference room, where many people were already seated. After they sat down, a man came in from the outside with a radio and put Put it on the podium.They connected the cable and the two attached square boxes to this machine, which was still miraculous in the eyes of the old bishop. They tinkered with it for a while, and then it "woke up".

In the familiar subtle noises, human voices and musical sounds gradually emerged clearly, like a blurry mirror being polished, the sound of the machine has been adjusted to the highest level, and an external speaker is connected, making the people in the last row of the conference room I can hear you clearly.

It's not yet the time for the preview, but it's past the morning news time. A female voice that people are most familiar with is chanting something in a serious tone, "What are you talking about now?" Someone asked.

The voices of the people who were still talking were quieted down. They looked at the big box, and after a while, someone replied: "...they are talking about the history of the Industrial City and the Industrial Alliance."
