Take Taobao with you to another world

For those kings and nobles who hurriedly moved their families to the Industrial Alliance immediately after the catastrophe, at least during the period when they first moved, they thought their decision was very wise and their life in the Alliance was very pleasant.

After overcoming a little mourning for their old life, they embraced their new life with a positive attitude.This is not difficult at all, for the Confederation of Industry is indeed a country that is easily fascinating. Although it is new and pagan, it is still more powerful and civilized. The former they have witnessed, and the latter is more powerful. In the process of settling in, I have a deep understanding.

The city they live in is so huge that the edge of the city can hardly be seen from the highest roof, only straight roads, forested houses, thin smoke blown by the wind, hundreds of thousands of People live here, it is like a small country by itself.It is conceivable how difficult it will be to manage such a large city, but even if you use the same eye to find faults to be critical, you can't help but admit that the municipal construction and production order of these cities are close to perfection.

From the quiet living area to the busy commercial area, no matter how remote the corner is, there is no defecation, except for fallen leaves and a few pieces of paper blown by the wind, there is no waste on the road, public rail transit and human-powered bicycles Almost completely replacing animal power, everything is extremely neat and orderly.Except for the occasional smell of soot, the air in these cities is as fresh as a green field, because the Alliance people have planted various trees and vegetation in any vacant corner, which has been passed down since the era when magicians led them to open up wasteland. under the tradition.There are a lot of plants, but few bugs. It was the season when they moved, and the living area was full of flowers. Although the Union people don't like gorgeous clothes, they know the mood of life very well in other places, and even the living area is full of greenery. , I think at least part of the reason is the close relationship between the "magician" and the elf queen.

From tall and neat buildings to well-groomed residents, the whole city gives people a strong sense of cleanliness. To maintain this kind of cleanliness, either a large number of qualified manpower is required, or a very complete infrastructure is required. The cities of the Alliance Both.They have a dedicated and capable team to keep the public areas clean, and they often mobilize residents to maintain the city's environment from time to time. What is commensurate with these qualified and conscious citizens is the city's developed water supply and power supply systems, as well as education facilities. The astonishing garbage classification and disposal system, for the kings and nobles, they did not know that a city can be so sophisticated and well-designed, and human beings can live in such a highly organized way in it. This gave them a great shock.

The more shocking it is, the more sharply it contrasts the poverty and backwardness of the motherland that they have just left behind.Although they are the rulers of the country and the region, in the past they could only live in strong but dark and cold castles. Life is inconvenient everywhere. There is no electric light, no running water, no toilet, no bathroom with hot water throughout the day, and no enjoyment now. No, but it will be connected to the heating of every household in winter.The more they feel the benefits of alliance life, the older and darker the life they remember, so that when they think of the past, they will think of the stench blowing from the city, the muddy and dirty territory, and the everywhere in the territory. Visible mean, ugly, rough peasants, and all the troubles they bring to themselves.

They left their own country and territory, so they also stayed away from the gloom, filth and ignorance. They live in the most powerful and civilized country in the world today. The city is like a garden, and the alliance people they see every day are all noble and noble. He is upright, elegant and very intelligent. He treats them with dignity and courtesy, neither humble nor overbearing, considerate and thoughtful.It's just that some details are not very meticulous, for example, sometimes they will politely reject the king's and nobles' instructions, and sometimes they will make arrangements for them independently, and at the same time, they are too polite to the servants-so polite that it sometimes makes people feel subtly It seems that the status of servants is not much different from that of nobles.

Obviously, the empire of the Industrial Alliance is rising too fast. Although it has fully demonstrated the atmosphere of a great country, it still needs more time to cultivate a noble temperament.

Only nobility cannot be achieved quickly, and the establishment of the industrial alliance will only take a baby to reach adulthood, so it is understandable that they do not understand the first step of nobility, which is to keep different appropriate distances from different classes.

Because the living facilities in these cities and towns are too perfect, those servants who were lucky enough to move with the king and nobles became idle, and various mechanical vehicles made them no longer have to take care of the nobleman's mounts, which had been sent to the suburbs. Raising on farms; lighting is all electricity, and they don’t have to keep candles anymore; in the big and bright bathroom, the toilet can flush automatically, and you only need to turn on the hot water tap to fill the bathtub; even the cook has lost her status here , because the public canteens of the industrial alliance have been developed for a long time and have formed a unique food culture. In these huge auditorium-like, clean and artistic dining places, the number of dishes is so large that even if the daily menu is not the same , it will take them several months to taste them all.

What the industrial alliance provides them is not only good living conditions, no matter the city, town, or village as big as a small town, they all have their own schools, libraries (rooms), theaters, theater troupes, no matter what they do For those who work, most of the alliance members have their own associations and regularly participate in recreational activities organized by the associations or the units they work for.Fresh newspapers are sent to the residences of kings and nobles every day. They can not only see the latest current events, grasp the changes that are happening around the world, but also have more ears and eyes than in the past territories. They can also see various performances, competitions and events. Event notice.

In order to do as the Romans do, the nobles also went to their reading clubs, watched plays performed by troupes in theaters, and tried to learn their popular games. Apart from reading books that would make them feel out of place, they soon became addicted to colorful plays and various fun games.

Such a comfortable and fulfilling life almost made the kings and nobles forget the shadow of war. Although newspapers and radios are reporting the situation of the outside world every day, since the industrial alliance wants to take the initiative to assume the responsibility of defending human beings, for the same purpose, they not only contribute Outside of your own territory and people, even if you are in a foreign land, you have actively sought the interests of your country in various meetings. You have a clear conscience and should not be criticized any more.

So, do they know nothing about the aristocratic class who have been eroding and transforming their own country and territory step by step by the Alliance people?

Although some kings and nobles seem not very smart due to reasons such as inbreeding, they often show keen intuition and make amazing decisions when it comes to their own interests.If there were still a few people fantasizing about becoming the leader of the war and the hero of the human race before the rift restarted and the world changed, after the three days that broke the heart and gallbladder, the hero's delusion turned into a wish to die.

Even if human beings lose to the alien invaders, the Industrial Alliance will definitely be the last to die.Therefore, when those who saw that the situation was tilting towards the Alliance people day by day, and those who worried about the country and the people sent the alarming letters to them through the postal system of airships and white ships, they might open them for people to read. , or put it away like this, and then continue to go to the theater, dance and gamble as usual.

Some people made a request to the alliance to open up an exclusive communication channel for them to remotely command the country. The industrial alliance rejected the reason that technical problems were difficult to achieve, but for the request of others who wanted to return to the country immediately, they gave Maximum convenience.Although there is no one in a hundred who really made up his mind to go back, the league did not hesitate to praise them in various public occasions.

So, after returning to their country and territory, can these one-of-a-kind people regain their power from the Alliance?

At least in Xia La's view, it might be very, very difficult.

The girl who struggled to get to Xinmaxi City with several children in a weak body, followed her own will and became a staff member of the farm. She studied while working and obtained an advanced degree from an agricultural college through hard work. Incomparably, she became a liberator when she became an adult. Her work achievements are obvious to all. Before her application to work in the war zone was approved, she was already a key member of the regional animal husbandry department, directly managing a large-scale breeding farm, and working for thousands of people every day. Tens of thousands of local residents provide a wealth of meat, egg and milk food.

Aware of the crisis facing mankind, she felt duty-bound like most liberators. When this young but mature enough cadre took the airship with his companions and carried the necessary supplies to the Eastern theater, they were accompanied by a group of A batch of nobles who have finally "settled" their families and can return to the country to lead the resistance front "without distractions".Since the cabin is very cramped by supplies, and in order to relieve the discomfort and anxiety caused by the turbulent airflow during the journey, the two sides naturally had a lot of communication during the journey.

At least before knowing the origins of these liberators, the two sides got along on an equal and friendly basis, especially when the liberators stated their positions, the king and other nobles responded with surprise and admiration, but asked Once the question of how they came to be the Liberators was answered, the atmosphere in the cabin became a little strange.

The sorcerer is the son of god who descended from the sky, but the alliance people were not born to follow his angels. The Far West was always considered a wild land in the past. Naturally, it is impossible to have any noble background, and they never hide it. Therefore, when this point that others always ignore intentionally or unintentionally is revealed face to face, it is only natural that the other party will feel unnatural and uncomfortable.

But the alliance people were not born to make them feel comfortable. They saw the changes in the attitudes of the nobles, and they remained polite, but they did not deliberately avoid taboos. His Majesty the King and the princes and ministers wanted to get rid of the situation that was increasingly controlled by the alliance people. It is impossible for the regions to regain power - or to get the benefits that naturally arise from the various projects they organize and build, without the cooperation of the alliance people.

It is strange to say that while the nobles easily accept all kinds of criticisms against the industrial alliance produced in the middle of Central Continent, on the other hand, they always believe that as long as they bring out the "tradition", "rules" and "reasons" at the moment of decision, The alliance members will be forced to return everything including the principal and interest in the name of righteousness.So after realizing that not only the Liberators of the Alliance who were traveling with them were of inferior origin, but even those Alliance people who had laid their foundations in their country and land did not have a trace of noble blood, they did not take much effort to accept that After acknowledging this unpleasant fact, they adjusted their attitudes, trying to make the allies who confessed their origins feel the difference in their identities, and then "wisely" obey and cooperate with them, the "true" masters of the country.

However, some of their luck is not very good.After the rift was restarted, the space channel connecting the other world with this world through the space membrane was not stable for a while. Although it expanded at an alarming rate every day, no living creature appeared from it. This gave the world of Central Continent another A little more breathing time, but almost everyone knows that this time will not be too long.

No one can predict when and in which channel the first invasive species from another world will appear. When the group finished their journey and just got off the airship, they heard that the alliance army stationed on the front line captured a group of people from the channel. The outsider creatures that came out, after being inspected by front-line detection instruments, research institutes, military doctors, and talented people, sent some of them that were relatively harmless or had already been harmed to the rear to be transported back to the alliance.

So they faced these "monsters" from other worlds.

Beasts with bristling hair, skin and flesh, and large reptiles with broken spines and scarred scales were kept in tempered glass cabinets, and they looked weak. To add another layer of insurance, they were fed before entering the cage. A certain amount of narcotic drugs.The front line has confirmed that these animals can eat local animals and plants without obvious poisoning reaction, and anesthetics can also affect them. As for their attack power and aggressiveness, the front line reports that the attack power is "normal" and the aggressiveness is " Stronger”, it has not been found that they will produce pathological reactions that will lead to alienation under the influence of external factors—such as air, food, and people’s confinement.

More understanding still needs to be further explored by relevant research institutions. Shara and her partners watched these alien creatures from a safe distance for a while, and discussed with each other in low voices:

"Is it just an ordinary animal?"

"It looks ordinary."

"It's a bit big."

"It should be big. The oxygen content in the detected world over there is higher than ours, so it will naturally grow bigger."

"Then their race may be taller than ours, right? They were injured during the roundup?"

"No, the report said it fell."

"Wow, did they fall directly? Could it be that their physique is so strong that they can't even fall to death?"

"There is a repulsive force inside. It depends on the quality. They fell from a height of about two floors, right?"

"Is the environment inside the channel already detectable?"

"The instruments sent in are still easy to break, but our researchers can use indirect methods..."

"...Eh, what about people? What about that 'Your Majesty' and all the 'Adults', weren't they here just now? Why did they run there so quickly? Didn't they say that mere monsters from other worlds are not to be feared? Are they one sword at a time?"

The day after Shara arrived in the Seventh Zone of the Eastern Theater, the Alliance informed Central Continent World through newspapers and broadcasts that alien species began to appear in various places. There were a total of 54 space passages from the Industrial Alliance to the Far East Empire, 37 Invasive species appeared near the passages, only seven passages had no visible changes, and the remaining ten passages had carnivorous plants, a large amount of liquid with unknown composition, and falling rocks inside.The animals and plants that come to the world of Central Continent through these passages have an obvious commonality. They are often large in size and powerful in attack. Defensive front with great warning.

The Industrial Alliance has already learned through some credible channels that although the world on the other side of the passage is geologically unstable and has frequent extreme climates, it is extremely rich in species. Therefore, the possibility of a beast tide impacting before the official arrival of the human race from the other world cannot be ruled out at all— —Actually, in the eyes of many people, the occurrence of this situation is almost inevitable.

According to the screen analysis collected from the Sky Eye system, there are still parts of the Central Continent that are still not fully prepared for the beast tide or other invasion wars, and many work reports from various places show that even those who have already In areas where order has been stabilized by the backbone of the alliance and projects have been launched, most people have not yet psychologically prepared for war.

The situation in areas outside the Human Self-Defense Alliance and the Eastern Alliance is beyond their control. In the War Alliance, not to mention that the food production of the Industrial Alliance this year will hit a new high. Psychologically, there is great fear of invaders from other worlds, and most areas still fully or partially resume orderly production and life.

Order is what matters.Both the workers of the alliance and the people in these areas are very aware of this, and those kings and nobles who mustered up the courage to return to their country obviously cannot but agree with this.This has caused great difficulties for them to regain power.

Just like if it is in an area where the king and nobles still firmly hold power, the organization of the alliance will be quite difficult. Although the returned king and his vassal ministers showed a positive attitude towards war and construction, but There are not many places where they can be useful.The alliance people showed an attitude of welcoming them back, calling them titles and saluting when they met, allowing them to assume extremely high positions, but giving them little real power.At least not giving them the real power they want.

Kings and nobles cannot intervene in the dispatch of materials, because they are provided by the industrial alliance; they cannot decide on the appointment and dismissal of personnel, because the administrative systems in these areas are established by the alliance people, with themselves as the backbone; let alone direct command Any army—whether it is the Union army stationed on the defensive front, or the militia and self-defense army trained by them, according to the provisions of the covenant, these military forces organized by private soldiers and peasants after obtaining the consent of the original ruler Organizations, since their supplies, weapons and training are entirely under the responsibility of the industrial alliance, according to the purpose of their birth and the direction of their operations, they are already the armed forces of the Human Self-Defense League.Even the "original masters" of these private soldiers and farmers can only issue orders to them with the authorization of the alliance.

No matter how noble and great their positions sound, the essence is that the king and other nobles have lost the foundation of their power, and even the land—the most important land—is left in name only.Because the farmers have been concentrated from the villages to various settlements by the Alliance people, most of them have become coolies for building roads, bridges, camps, reservoirs, etc. In terms of farming, it turned out to be a cooperative production team with women and the elderly as the main body.

In the name of the covenant, the Confederates erased the boundary between public land and private land and turned them into a large stretch of land. They invested a lot of animal power on these lands and promoted the fine iron farm tools that were suitable for them. The seedlings have only been planted not long ago, but they have already firmly won the hearts of the people through the steady payment of the present and the promise of the future. When the king and nobles inspect these plots, the peasants will still show their clothes. He showed a sincere and fearful attitude, but the humble words seemed to attribute everything to the alliance members, and expected a part of the land income as his own.

Internally wounded kings and nobles returned to their high but lonely castles, looked down on the hillsides, and saw that their cities and villages had lost what they had been in just two or three months: the outer walls of the capital It was demolished, the slums disappeared, and the new living camps for the large number of laborers gathered here surrounded the old urban area, making it even more outdated and cramped; the roads were also re-planned, and the widened roads were filled with traffic and traffic. Like weaving, it connects the huge construction sites that have already been built. On the other vast land, the new seedlings that are growing have covered the earth with a new layer of green. It is almost impossible to think of them taking the airship. When leaving, see those dilapidated and chaotic scenes from the transparent porthole.

Even the appearance of the people has undergone great changes. Even if the huge beam of light connecting the two worlds stands behind the undulating hills, it is difficult to escape. However, those laborers covered in sweat and dust, and women holding the reins of farm animals with bare feet , those wrinkled old men and their monkey-like children still had smiles on their faces.Not the instinctive twitching of a muscle in the face of kings and nobles, but a very real emotion.

What made the kings and nobles even more pissed was that when the alliance people walked into these crowds, their people not only did not realize their ecstasy, but they did not shrink back. Others kept an "appropriate distance", but greeted them very naturally, chatted with them, and asked them questions. Before they knew it, they drowned the Alliance members of different uniforms in the crowd.

If it were the kings and nobles who chose to live in the alliance cities, they would say that the king and his subjects should not have come back to humiliate themselves, and the latter did regret it more than once and wanted to return. to a union of light, abundance, and carelessness, and they will have no hindrance to their return except self-respect.

But they stayed on, perhaps out of self-esteem.

Under the shed of the simple farm, Shala looked at the young women standing in a row in front of her, clapped her hands, and in the echo of the applause, she said loudly:

"Very good! Girls, very good! Look at us and hold your heads up!"
