Chapter 463 Talent, meeting and decision

As the head of the region who will go further in the next congress, Fan Tianlan contacted Takla, the military head, not to discuss the conversation between Fatales and Yunshen. Back in Industry City, these topics can be fully discussed in the seminar.

Fan Tianlan asked directly: "Have you got all your periodic physical examination reports?"

Takla said, "Why are you asking this?"

Fan Tianlan read out a long list of nouns: "What range are the results of these projects?"

Takla's face was displeased, because Fan Tianlan really didn't hide the fact that he was remotely monitoring the industrial city in the north. is needed.So he still told the other party his inspection records during this period.

Fan Tianlan was quiet for a while, and Takla was not sure at first whether he was calculating or continuing to use the ability "Vision", until he felt that something seemed to change in the space around him, like ripples in the air, a strange The feeling is transmitted from his skin to his brain, and he feels a kind of "sight".Takla turned from the chair and faced the direction of the line of sight.

"What are you looking at?" he asked rudely.

"Look at the development of your second set of internal organs." Fan Tianlan also answered directly.

Takla was silent for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "When you look at people with this kind of vision, is the world full of skeletons or heat maps?"

Fan Tianlan was too lazy to answer this question, he checked the external situation of Takla with his extraordinary perception, and gave him a preliminary judgment that everything is still within the controllable range.

It is not quantitative data, but it is the guarantee that Takla wants most at present.At the moment when the Industrial Alliance was at a major turning point, he certainly didn't want this inexplicable awakening of talent to become an obstacle to his work.

"What about in the future?" Takla asked, "I will be like you too?"

"Think too much." Fan Tianlan said.

"It's not bad to be like you," Takla said.

If he could choose, Takla would of course want to have the ability like Fan Tianlan. It doesn't have to reach the same depth and breadth, as long as he can master the panoramic map anytime and anywhere. With his current detection data, it is not so much This is a wish rather than a fact that is gradually being realized.

In the early days of the alliance's development, his natural ability was not outstanding due to Fan Tianlan's astonishing progress, but it was precisely because of Fan Tianlan's case that the alliance established a relevant physical examination system very early on, and established a natural talent. Tracking files of those who are or are suspected to be gifted.On the chart made for Takla, one can see an upward curve that is more prominent than most people, prominent and stable, corresponding to his increasingly improving eyesight and strengthening physique Correspondingly, but this line has seen two steep rises in the near future. The first time was that his main organs, especially the heart, were found to have abnormalities in the angiography. After excluding all possible lesions and referring to the opinions of Meravi , It is tentatively believed that this is the secondary organ development caused by certain factors.The second time was after the airship formation crossed the country of fog and entered the spiritual domain of the city of the sky, his five senses were enhanced in a short period of time—or in his own words, stretched to a level beyond the limit , and his greatly enhanced physique due to organ mutations allowed him to withstand the impact of that moment. Even though he was far away from the spiritual realm, his forcibly expanded perception did not return to the original state, but stabilized day by day. down.

Although Takla has not yet shown any intuitive talent skills, but in other testing items, he is already extremely close to the top level of the new level system produced by the Master University.

This makes people quite confused about his true blood. Referring to the impression he and his people have of his parents, it is obvious that the root of this particularity lies more in the paternal line, but this is already an issue that is difficult to pursue.For the current Takla and the current Industrial Alliance, exploring the mysteries of strength and talent through tracing genealogy has never been an urgent issue that should be ranked first.

The real urgency is still the rift restart.

After the dialogue with Fatales, the Industrial City urgently held a special representative meeting. Realizing the key significance of this meeting, important representatives of various administrative regions and representatives of the United Kingdom in the alliance rushed to the center of the alliance through various means of transportation.Before this conference with astonishing specifications entered the official stage, the delegates saw the processed video of the conversation of the first generation King Fatales on the big screen. Even though they had known some relevant information before, many participants were still shocked A strong shock.

What shocked them most and made them unacceptable was not the fact that the rift was about to restart—the prophecy of Astaros and the Elf Queen had become an open secret in recent years, nor was it the fact that the enemy was far superior to the Industrial Alliance and was close to fantasy technology The level and unpredictable scale of attack - this is something that has been analyzed in the early days of knowing the existence of Sky City.Today, people have a more objective understanding of the true power of the industrial alliance. No matter the territory, population, social organization or productivity level, there is no match in this world. This means that they will be in the second Take on the primary responsibility when the Rift Wars begin.

They have been preparing for this war, but they have not been prepared to actively promote it.

The "Sky City" that Fatales brought into the world of Central Continent is the only key to restarting the rift, but Central Continent has no power that can really destroy it.The key to this key, that is, the main control system and city engine of the city's core power, are hidden in the heterotopic space, and only the masters who are truly recognized by the city can really touch it.It is useless to eliminate its current users or destroy its external facilities.

Even if they might use some external force to destroy the city, it would be impossible to really prevent the Rift from reopening.The world on the opposite side is going to perish. If they can really destroy this key, the ending will not be that the enemy will be destroyed silently in another space, but the world of Central Continent can still exist and develop stably.They're all going to be completely screwed.

In fact, everyone has enough reason to doubt whether the Rift Human Race, who have planned for thousands of years for this day, will pin all their hopes on a key, whether they have someone behind them, or the key itself It's blinding smoke—

But even the worst smoke was the only retreat that Fatales and others could choose at that time.

Since this city cannot be destroyed, it will definitely participate in the process of restarting the rift, so can it delay the signal transmission time as much as possible so that Middle Continent World can be better prepared?

The answer is of course you can.But this process has been delayed by 200 years.

Before Prince Rand discovered the true whereabouts of the King of Man from the clues of history, and thus successfully occupied the floating city, Fatales had been floating in the sky with it for 200 years.Before that, the real plan of the king, who has been completely disappointed in human nature, on how to use this city is to wait until the countdown is over, the crack will restart, and use the power of the connection between the two worlds to provide enough energy to turn the city, which only has the base The city moved over a livable land and sank down to the base of the rock, then dug this whole land out of the ground, away from the Second Rift War, and made it the last place of human existence.

Regardless of the various problems that may be caused by this negative choice, the abilities shown by Prince Rand and others in the process of finding the king and building the city of the sky are objectively quite outstanding in this era. Considering the crisis as a background, it is understandable and even correct for them to cruelly squeeze the country of fog.They still don’t know the meaning of this city’s existence, but judging from the fact that the city of the sky has the same ruling thinking shown by many intelligences, there are also enough reasons to doubt that even if they will lock the city of the sky for the benefit of humans in Central Continent At the last moment when the rift is restarted, the living conditions of the people of the country of mist will not be fundamentally improved.In the final analysis, it is the deep-rooted class consciousness of Prince Rand and his followers, at least in Fatales' view that it is impossible to reverse.

Only the "chosen ones" can ascend to the kingdom of heaven. The more crisis the world faces, the more irreplaceable the value of this city will be. Their mentality of being superior to others will only be strengthened, and "there is no reason to weaken it."

Only the industrial alliance that has produced long-distance aircraft can exert pressure on them, but pressure may not bring compromise.And this reluctance to compromise is two-way, not only because both have a strong mentality of "self-centered", but are extremely unequal in size, but also because of the gap in the fundamental concepts of the two parties - this point It is especially reflected in the attitude towards the resistance forces in the country of fog.

After integrating the information provided by various sources, they have almost grasped the situation of the country of mist: the upper class headed by Prince Rand squeezed the ground resources in a way that did not consider the long-term at all, although they have activated the Sky City's Part of the production function, but this did not bring about overall improvement. The people are still in an extremely painful living situation, and have accumulated deep and strong resistance.However, the repeated uprisings of the population on the ground failed to make them reflect on or improve their ruling methods. The nobles of Tiancheng denounced them as "ignorance of good and evil" and "insufficient greed", and repeatedly used the weapon system of Sky City to brutally suppress them, leading to today's The contradictions between the upper and lower worlds have accumulated to the point of irreconcilability.

The liberators of the Industrial Alliance cannot accept peace with a ruler of this nature in terms of emotion and position, but if they choose to support the rebels in the Mist Kingdom, it is tantamount to making an enemy of the other party, which will not only cause a second rift war The previous internal friction of human power may also cause the opponent to start the city engine in advance, causing the rift to restart early-the Central Continent world will be dragged into a hasty second rift war, which will be a disaster for all human beings.

If in order to delay the restart of the rift to the final deadline, the alliance must ignore the imminent humanitarian disaster-due to the irreparable gap in strength between the rebels and the floating city, the result of this long-standing large-scale struggle is completely It is foreseeable, but the rebels have already made up their minds to accept the worst sacrifice. Their goal is not to pursue victory, but to survive desperately, no matter what the price is.

Reality puts difficult choices before everyone in the Industrial Alliance.

Due to time constraints, some figures closely related to the industrial alliance listened to the live broadcast of the meeting through a specific channel.From the Principality of Ridan, which is undergoing the process of merging into the alliance, to the independent port city that connects the east and west sides of the Central Continent, and even many important figures in the United Kingdom of Eastern Central Continent, they all learned about the first generation of King Fata through this live broadcast. Reis is still alive, a city in the sky in the west of Central Continent is the restart of the rift and other important information. After experiencing the same degree of shock as the participants at the beginning, they came back to their senses through this meeting itself. The attitude of the land of fog and rift restart.

At least they recognize that if the industry federation — or the artisans — were really at a loss as to what to choose, the conference wouldn't be taking place in this format at this moment.

"The meeting itself meant a decision," said the Elven Queen. "Whether it was for the Alliance's own good or for those who were suffering, their choice was obvious."

Still, the less politically sensitive don't know why: "When did they make a decision and what did they decide?"

"My friend, have you never read their copy of the Program?" asked someone beside him.

"Of course I've seen the dogmas of the Arabian Nights...Are they really going to follow the rules on such an important matter?"

"Since they have been acting according to those dogmas before, this matter is no exception." Someone said at the conference table, "They are able to go against the common sense and continue to create miracles, not only relying on the heretical knowledge of the magician, they believe their Doing the right thing is the most important thing.”

"Since this is the case, shouldn't the correct approach be to form an alliance with the Mist Kingdom and help them suppress those rebel forces?" Another archmage spoke.

As soon as this remark came out, many people's eyes focused on it.

Forming an alliance, this is a proposal that is unexpected at first, but it seems to be a very reasonable proposal after careful consideration.Since the Industrial Alliance is named after this, and has entered into various forms of contracts with different objects many times during the process of its rise, linking up with the Mist Country should not be a big problem.Now that the other party has felt the threat of the industrial alliance, as long as they can let go of their hostility towards each other, the sufficient manpower of the industrial alliance and the strongest production capacity in the world can just make up for the various shortcomings of Sky City. After all, they have already built on the ground. Many amazing cities, presumably will work harder to build human sanctuaries.

Moreover, forming an alliance can not only ensure the stability of the kingdom of mist, keep the city in the sky fixed in place, but also share the benefits brought by that city through the alliance. If the second rift war makes life on the ground dangerous, industrial The high-level figures of the alliance moved to the city of the sky, not only their own safety and security, but also to obtain higher powers - after all, that city, as His Majesty Fatales said, is the last hope of mankind in the desperate situation, so who Who owns it is the king of the future, isn't this a natural thing?

More importantly, it is a floating city that can be manipulated and can open its internal secrets to them according to the construction progress!Yearning for the sky is a human instinct. The airship project of the Industrial Alliance can attract the backbone of the Master University to help across the continent. Therefore, it is completely understandable why Prince Rand has been able to silently gather an astonishing number of talented people for more than ten years. It's just that they are focused on deciphering the mysteries of this city and lack of communication with alien civilizations like the Industrial Alliance, so it seems that they have made little progress.

At least in the eyes of some people, as long as the city in the sky is not a trap or a smoke that proves meaningless in the end, the alliance between the Industrial Alliance and Prince Rand is in the overall interest of Middle-earth World, because Prince Rand still has a return The Central Empire's goal of "clearing order" can also indirectly solve the orthodox problem that the Central Empire, which has lost half of its territory, is turmoil-

Having said that, the proposer glanced at the elf queen at the top with a slightly resentful look.

Although it was a counterattack to some rumors spreading from the imperial capital, it is true that the announcement of the fact that the reigning emperor is not of royal blood as a weapon was approved by His Majesty... It has made the mages from the imperial capital quite embarrassing recently.

All in all, the industrial alliance doesn't need to worry about how to intervene in the internal war of the country of fog. They can completely establish a relationship with the upper class of the country of fog in the name of assisting in suppressing the rebel forces.Once the powerful alliance is achieved, the United Kingdom will also have the right to enter the Sky City to explore its mysteries together.Such an approach would be beneficial to either party, and it is strange that no one mentioned it in this meeting.

When the archmage, who had just been qualified for the joint meeting not long ago, finished his speech, the expressions on the faces of everyone present were simply wonderful.

When the great mage consciously said some good words, looked around, and waited for praise, people began to whisper and whisper.

He was a little confused, and then looked at Leah, who had a half-smile on his face, and nodded to him: "It is indeed... a wise choice."

"Is this the real reason why that human king wandered in the sky for 200 years?" Li Yunce, the bereaved family beside Liard, whispered.

"Who knows?" Liard said softly, "but at least one thing, he doesn't like his offspring very much. He doesn't like any of them."

Even though the voice transmitted through the communication equipment was quite distorted, almost everyone could hear the weariness in His Majesty's speech.This boredom is not only due to his too long and heavy life, but also due to his lack of expectation for the future.

"Prince Rand's actions obviously disappointed him very much," Liard said.

"But if there is no industrial alliance, Prince Rand is almost the best choice. He has a legacy, is young, smart, ambitious, and ruthless enough. This kind of person is usually the victor in history." He said, "If there is no The words of the industrial alliance. The magicians have broken their common sense and rules."

"That city should not be a symbol of hope," said the Elven Queen.

"A way out," whispered the Elf Prince. "A way to live."

"This is not our choice." Li Yunce said.

"I think the Federation of Industry thinks so too," Liard said.

As the core figure of the United Kingdom, everyone here has already known about the existence of Sky City before this meeting, but at first no one knew that it was a retreat specially prepared for the Central Continent humans. They just felt a great threat and did not Since then, the connection and cooperation with the industrial alliance has been further strengthened.Although the two parties have not yet signed a formal contract, they have long understood that each other's interests are inseparable, and the Industrial Alliance is undoubtedly the leader of this cross-continent alliance group.

Once the second rift war occurs, the Industrial Alliance will also become the leader of the resistance force in the Middle Continent world, which is also beyond doubt.

And Prince Rand's ambition has long been revealed. With such a city in the sky, he wants to become the master of the world.Once the rift is opened, his delusions may become real.

A city that can accommodate at least one million people is enough to accommodate all the nobles and their families and servants in the Middle Continent world. If, as the king of the people said, the restart of the rift will replenish energy for it, and open up more powerful energy in the folding space, so that Its defense and counterattack capabilities are not inferior to those of other rift floating cities—because its past owner was the best among the rift nobles, and the rich heritage that the brave Marquis bestowed on the Central Continent people will protect them until the new era of the world Order is established.And as long as the population does not grow excessively, it can even form a self-sufficient internal cycle without relying on any material supplements on the ground, without fear of wind, frost, rain and snow, and stay away from disputes forever, becoming a real paradise...

Even if the rift has not yet restarted, this future is already moving enough.Because people not only yearn for the sky, but also yearn to always be above others.

Unity is just like a flower, and the struggle between people is eternal.There is no exception in the sky and the world.

Fatales opened his eyes, and the head maid said softly that Prince Rand asked to see him.

This was the first time they met after the Airship Invasion Incident of the Industrial Alliance. Prince Rand entered the observation room. Under his gesture, everyone retreated silently and sat down on a high-backed chair. He did not speak, Fatale Si would not take the initiative to speak, and the stone room was silent.

After an unknown amount of time, Rand said, "Your Majesty... If you could do it all over again, would you choose me, or that alliance country established by visitors from another world?"

"Why think about futile things?" Fatales said, "There is never an if, and time will never turn back."

Prince Rand smiled, due to his prestige, it seemed that even his smile was lingering with blood. "I see, Your Majesty."

"I know that you don't want to be awakened and answer this painful world again. I don't want anyone to take the initiative to start the second rift war. I just want to delay the time until the last moment." He said softly, "Even if you never It never occurred to me to give this city to human hands, because anyone who got it would do the same thing as me."

"Until not long ago, you didn't realize that maybe someone could be different." Prince Rand asked, "Do you regret it?"

Fatales looked at him for a moment, "How much do you already know?"

Prince Rand smiled again, "I know more than you think I should. For example, the origin and mission of this city... Also, you have established a private connection with the family member of the surface world, yes ?"

Fatales' expression didn't change at all: "And then?"

"Your Majesty." Prince Rand said, "Perhaps childhood has determined a person's life. Since childhood, no matter how difficult it is, I can always get what I want, and no one can take it away."
