The conference room slowly fell silent, and the sound of the radio became clearer and clearer. This silence spread from indoors to outdoors, from the school to the street, and almost the entire city was listening.Not only in this city, but inside and outside the Orc Empire, in many corners of the world, there are the same many people who are listening intently. In this way, for the first time, they finally understand positively and completely How this "variable" and these "heterogeneous" are established and strengthened.

It is absurd to say the word "history" for an organization that has been established for less than five years and has existed for less than ten years, but perhaps it has crossed too many stages of development in too short a period of time, making it difficult to participate in or observe its development. Evolved people have a hard time evaluating it in the usual way, and people aren't even sure that it should be considered a nascent country now?Or is it a coalition of interests that preserves the autonomy of its members, as is customary?Or is it a complex of missionaries and trade missions across the territory?

People know it looks like nothing, but people need to face this monster in a familiar way.This brand-new organization is powerful and full of mysteries, not only because of its speed of development, but also because its founders have never publicized their ideas to others. The industrial alliance is not without external ambitions, but the manifestations of this ambition are also abnormal.

Perhaps understanding the emergence and growth process of this "spoiler" and listening to the organization's summary evaluation of itself will help people resolve some doubts.

Many facts are already known, and many facts have never been heard. Unlike the familiar way of recording history, this lecture does not show when and how the "magician" conquered his opponents. They, the process of gaining power.In this report, which was released to the public for the first time, his personal influence was weakened and hidden behind the production facilities that appeared, developed, and expanded in sequence. Blurred impressions replaced.Even if there is a simultaneous translation of the common language, many people who hear this speech do not understand the significance of some factories and their products to the operation of the alliance, but anyone can hear and understand that in order to "survive and develop", the industrial alliance must The fact that it produces sky-high amounts of grain and steel.

This not only shocked the audience, but also demonstrated the solid foundation of the industrial alliance.

No matter how high personal force in this world can reach, food and steel are still the foundation of a country.Due to the barriers of geography and other factors, few people have seen the monster-like coal-iron complex and the large fields occupying the plain with their own eyes. People outside the industrial alliance have enough reasons to doubt the authenticity of these figures. But what happened in Xinmaxi City and Orbis King's Capital is what many people are experiencing. The transformation of any city by the pioneers is beyond the limit that ordinary countries can support, not to mention, in the construction of these two At the same time as the city, the industrial alliance is simultaneously transforming the orc tribes in the territory.At least the orcs have reason to believe that the reason for the gentle and slow transformation of the tribe by the Industrial Alliance is not the lack of supplies.

Although to achieve this horrific achievement - even if it is only half, it is not enough to have the land and the technology of production.The land needs to be cultivated by people, and the machinery needs to be operated by people. The speed at which industrial alliances, or industrial cities, can produce talents has also broken the limit of common sense.Although the orcs who have received the same educational resources have not yet left their country, the actions of those pioneers have made people aware of an unacceptable possibility: these people who have become powerful managers at an extremely fast speed , is educated for the purpose of becoming a ruler.Of course, as far as people know the reality, the power of ruling is not obtained by personal knowledge and ability, so in addition to systematic knowledge and the ability to manage themselves and others, the pioneers also have almost infinite wealth and unfathomable military support.

As if echoing people's thoughts, the speech began to talk about the war capabilities of the Industrial Alliance, perhaps to facilitate the audience's understanding and to properly hide some information. The speech did not list too many figures, but described it in a summarized tone: The alliance has built an arsenal capable of stably producing various types of weapons; anti-city weapons with an attack distance exceeding the visual distance of the human eye and a large killing range have been equipped at important nodes inside and outside the industrial alliance; Soldiers are equipped with multiple bursting weapons, and have different numbers of movable long-distance and high-power attack weapons; in conventional warfare where the proportion of talented people is less than 20%, the industrial alliance has a certain degree of confidence, and it can fight in three directions Simultaneously carry out self-defense operations on a scale of [-] people.

With the foreshadowing of previous grain and steel production, this statement is not an exaggeration considering the past record of the industrial city.Even so, people sitting around radios from one end of the world to the other fell into a stunned silence over the report.Especially to those dark-haired listeners in the southern bunkers of the Central Empire, for whom the distant voice seemed to speak of a dream.

But since the voice that can span thousands of miles rang in their ears, then this dream happened in reality.

--how did you do that?

In the huge auditorium conference hall, some people were also thinking about this question in silence.Although there were thousands of people in the auditorium, none of the participants made a sound. In this moment of waiting for the dust to settle, they quietly listened to the report on the stage, while weighing their own gains and losses in their hearts.

The main body of these participants were tribal leaders and ethnic group representatives, as well as the heads of the main departments of the industrial city, some instructors and outstanding students of the training camp. Among the crowd with the right to observe but not to vote, there were two businessmen , they came from the distant Principality of Ridan, and it was the first time they stepped into the hinterland of the industrial city.

If there is anyone here who feels more about this report than those sitting in front of the radio, it may be that these two people, although they know that the reason for the permission is the relationship between the Industrial Federation and the Grand Duke, they are still unavoidable. Caravan leader.They do not lack courage and wisdom who travel through the northern land all the year round, but most of them are active in the city of Kanlar, witnessing the process of the city's emergence and prosperity from nothing, and thus have a great influence on the reshaping of this city. The industrial city of this city is in awe. Every time they return from the principality, they have to revise their understanding of the industrial alliance led by the magician. With the two channels of newspapers and radio, they think they can control the industry. The strength of the alliance is estimated.

But their greatly relaxed upper limit still has not reached the true level of the league, and common sense shackles their imagination.

So, can the members of the industrial federation, those who are part of the system, understand?If the tribal leaders in the venue were asked to speak their minds truthfully, their reactions when faced with these numbers for the first time were not much different from those of the two businessmen, but they were more panicked than frightened.

Scar Nightmare's brutal urging to them made them have to face the fact that they had been escaping, and these tangible construction results are the best proof of Scar's warning to them: Warlocks do not rely on their support, orcs have fallen behind to human beings who compete fairly with them.The urgency that something must be changed weighed upon their hearts.

But taking that step is still difficult and daunting.It's not just a matter of honoring a human being as the master.

The report continued on among the people's thousands of thoughts.

The following content is mainly about three aspects: culture, education and health, which is a relatively novel angle for many audiences to understand the industrial alliance.Anyone who knows something about the alliance feels that this organization is all-encompassing. People's life, birth, old age, illness, and death are all under their strong control. Regardless of religion or national customs, they must bow their heads for them. The people in Xinmaxi City may feel the most deeply.But because of the special situation of New Mahy City itself, there are not many people who are dissatisfied with it. Facing the needs of survival and powerful forces, there is almost nothing that cannot be compromised, not to mention that people really feel that they have benefited.

But the industrial federations did not do this because their power was nowhere to be found.

Everything has a purpose because everything is one, production sustains the population and the need for self-defense, and education and healthcare provide the system with the knowledgeable and powerful producers it needs.In this unified whole, the common language, fair education and similarly transformed life put different people on a relatively equal position that has never been done before. What's more wonderful is that this organization The real leader, he's a dark-haired talent.

He is an outlier in any group.But only the truly heterogeneous can overcome many obstacles and organize people together.

So, what does this outlier want to do now?

Is reading such a report intended to highlight his achievements and existence to everyone?Although the Alliance of Industry has had an extraordinary impact in many places, the Warlock's title still does not match his achievements.Among those who can think between the reports, there are not many people who think that the magician should continue to hide. Even if the Orc Empire is not a small country, it is almost unable to accommodate a behemoth like the Industrial Alliance. The pioneers His deeds have already shown that his purpose is by no means just a corner.

So, facing this world, how will he introduce himself; what title does he want to get; strength and power are always equal, what kind of footprint will he leave in history?

This long and weighty report is coming to an end, and a soft and solemn female voice reads the conclusion: "...the above are our achievements in the last five-year plan. There is no doubt that we can say loudly that this is A feat to be proud of. But our footsteps will not stop here. The third phase of the coal-iron complex is underway, and our industrial city will continue to develop and improve. Not only the industrial city, but also the industrial alliance Other cities and regions will also be properly developed, and we will have more productive, educated, and productive people. We have completed some of the foundations of development through work, and we can expect to build on even more ambitious goals. "

"We are about to formulate a new development plan. To this end, three days ago, we held the tribal assembly of the industrial alliance. 820 nine tribal leaders and their representatives attended the meeting, and all the registered tribal departments of the alliance were present. At this meeting, Tribal leaders and representatives had important discussions about the future of the Tribe, making some significant decisions that were voted on democratically this morning."

"Now, the results of the vote have been counted."

"Please ask the chief representative of the tribe, the current patriarch of the Sasheer tribe, Scar Nightmare to announce the results of the vote."

People looked towards the front of the venue, those who quietly waited with them for the result.

Scar grabbed the paper at hand and dragged the microphone to his face.

Glancing at the people in front of him, without any extra words, he said:

"Article 810, all tribes that have joined the alliance regard the alliance as the only and unchangeable highest form of community. [-] votes in favor, nine votes against, and ten abstentions."

"Article 790, the tribe unconditionally accepts the leadership of the alliance. All tribal territory is the territory of the alliance. All tribal members are citizens of the alliance. They enjoy the same rights as all members of the alliance and undertake corresponding obligations. Seven votes in favor of [-], thirteen votes against , nineteen abstentions."

"Article 760, the tribe as a whole, as a part of the alliance, must cooperate with the alliance's production, construction, and business plans, and accept the alliance's modern transformation of the tribe on the premise of voluntary. 43 three votes in favor, 23 votes against, and [-] abstentions."

"Article 820, the tribe elects 'Yunshen' as the chairman of the alliance executive committee, and Scar Nightmare as the vice chairman. When the alliance representative assembly is not established or held, the alliance executive committee is responsible for the main management affairs of the alliance. [-] eight votes in favor, One abstention."

"Article [-], the tribe participates in the election of the Alliance Congress, and unconditionally implements all decisions of the Alliance Assembly. Eight hundred and one votes were in favor, [-] votes were against, and [-] votes were abstentions."

After reading these few articles, he paused, raised his eyes to look at the venue, his eyes were calm, "The voting is open, and the voting results were counted in front of 32 people. I admit this result. Who has any objections?"

There was no sound in the venue.

Scar lowered his eyes and said to the speech: "Then, as the general representative of the tribe, I announce that the nine tribes present at 820 agree with the voting result, and it will be valid for all tribes in the alliance from the next day. The specific details will be agreed in the subsequent meeting. Before the establishment of the Alliance Congress, tribes that cannot accept any of the resolutions still have the right to back out and withdraw from the alliance."

He looked at the venue again.

"The executive will give you seven days." His flat voice spread throughout the venue through the microphone, and also reached the ears of the people in front of the radio.

"Who is he?" some whispered.

"A leader of the orcs."

"What did he mean by all this?"

"Either the Orc Empire will cease to exist." Someone replied, "The Industrial Alliance will absorb all the tribes."

"Didn't they join before?"

"No, I didn't really join. The alliance just signed a contract with them to use land and population. This contract is neither fair nor long-term. It must be abandoned." The man said, "Now, abandon Its time has come."

"So this is the important news they are solemnly announcing?" said the interlocutor. "Isn't it natural? Does it mean something else?"

The current Grand Duke of Ridan and the former leader of the chamber of commerce Kolson laughed, and he said to his wife and other people in the living room: "Of course this news is important, and it may be very important to everyone, because it Far from being natural. The transformation of these orc tribes means that the Alliance of Warlocks has been truly established since then. Whatever people once thought it was, from this day onwards, it officially has its own territory, people and leaders. As for the army, they already existed, all that was missing was a name."

"But..." She was still confused, and asked the question for the others, "does this make a country?"

It’s not that the Industrial Alliance isn’t qualified enough, that it doesn’t have strength, or that its magicians aren’t famous enough. In terms of all necessary conditions, the Industrial Alliance has already surpassed most countries in the world. Still hasty and sloppy, and not just because the ceremony was indecorous or lacked a signature event.

"Jianguo?" Grand Duke Colson laughed again, "No, of course not. This is just the first step."

But this is a crucial step.

"The decision of the Orc tribe is an example for the newcomers, for those people and regions who take the initiative or are forced to join this alliance." The Elf Queen said to the elves in the meeting hall, "The Industrial Alliance will not start from Orbis. The kingdom and the new Mahi City withdrew, they needed both so much land and so many people, they had to completely digest these areas to support the emergence of the second and third industrial cities."

The elves were amazed.

"Second and third industrial cities?"

"Just one industrial city... If there are two more cities like this, does that magician want to completely rule the Western Continent?"

"So Orbis King's Capital and Xinmaxi City are the places he chose?"

"This is their new construction plan?"

"They might be able to, but..."

"But this ambition still seems huge, doesn't it?" said the Queen, "If the Warlock just wants to rule the Western Continent, we will only think that this is a goal that will take some time and is not too difficult for him. But to build more industrial cities in other parts of the world, based on our limited knowledge of industrial alliances, this is undoubtedly a very difficult and extremely ambitious project, but since the first industrial city already exists, then these Engineering is also achievable. And as long as two or more industrial cities are put into operation, the impact on the world order will be no less than that of a magician who initiates a war to unify the continent."

The eyes of the elves flickered.

"Indeed... more terrifying than war."

"The unimaginable prospect . . . will truly 'turn the world upside down'."

"However, the sorcerer has yet to truly unify the orc empire. Once he completes the integration..."

All kinds of unsatisfactory words were passed among the people, but the elves spoke scary and amazing words, but the atmosphere in the hall was not gloomy and tense, and cognition and emotion were strangely separated here.

"As far as you are concerned, Your Majesty." The Elf Elder said, "So the rectification of the Orc Empire is the first step of his grand plan. Not only the Orbis Empire, but he will also completely change the Orbis King's Capital and the New Marci City. All the ruling orders on the Buber Plain, transforming all the people who obeyed his rule like he transformed those pioneers, we know this is inevitable, but how long does it take for this process? What ensures that his will can be carried out Everywhere in the alliance, what power will he use to gather the human beings who are essentially scattered like sand into one?"

"A very good question." The Queen said, "This is what we must pay attention to. Compared with purely driving manpower to build some miracle projects, ensuring the orderly and complete migration of the first industrial city is the real difficulty of this project. Mechanical energy can be forged into completely identical devices in molds, but people's personalities and morals have thousands of changes. Changes are their vitality, but they can also become the source of disaster. Especially when the purpose of the magician is contrary to the habits of ordinary people .”

"Once his followers lose their restraint, the disaster caused will be immeasurable."

"We can't do nothing."

The live broadcast of the meeting on the radio was over, but the people in front of the radio did not disperse, because the broadcasting department immediately began to explain to the audience the status quo of the tribe in the alliance, and the impact of these resolutions on them and the alliance-this approach is very It's unexpected to some people.At the same time, the meeting in the auditorium is also not over.

Scar was also explaining the meaning of these decisions to the participants. His speech was written by himself and polished by the pharmacist and the magician. The content was concise and the tone was straightforward. From then on, the tribe was integrated with the inside and outside of the alliance and completely gave up its independence. , the fact that he formally joined the production system of the Industrial Federation was clearly recognized, and he did not say too much about the benefits that these decisions would bring, but clearly informed all the tribal leaders present what they would lose, and repeatedly Remind them that there is a path of repentance and withdrawal.

He also said this several times at the previous tribal conference, and his attitude was much worse than now.Maybe some people have really been moved by his instigation, but the emotional wavering is just an instinctive resistance of the free-spirited tribal people to being restrained. This tribal meeting has been paved for a long time. They all know what decisions they should make.Despite the tense agenda, the people reached a consensus of thought and action without much trouble.

Now that the dust has settled, almost everyone is relieved. The sense of rebirth that is about to enter a new era is replacing the previous restlessness. Recalling the summary report on the construction history and achievements of the industrial city before the voting results came out, Scar’s speech is very important. They can no longer cause any sway, including those who voted against in the vote-when the result cannot be changed, they just express an attitude through negative votes, without any real intention to change anything.And Scar knew what they were thinking.

"I'm done with what I'm going to say." He said, "Next, the last item of the conference, the Chairman of the Standing Committee, 'Master' Yun Shen, will give a speech."

Almost everyone can feel that after these words, the atmosphere of the venue has changed.

Scar's qualities as a leader and co-leader of the tribe are obvious to all, and no one is more convincing than him in that position, but the warlock is—he is...

What is he?
