Chapter 275: Hope (II)
"In the future, there will be bright sunshine in the sky again. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Cloudy, not forever. ”
The old scholar left the balcony and turned back to the house.
He also has a young grandson to take care of, the child's mother died in childbirth, and the child's father, a pilot, will go out with the troops this time to bomb the lair of the invaders on the south bank of the Yellow River, and strive to clear the obstacles as much as possible, so that the north and south sides of the battle line can be united again, relieve the victims, unite the rebels in the occupied areas, and jointly regain the lost territory!
This will be a protracted war, and the old scholars are fortunate to see that for the first time since mankind passively accepted the war, it has taken the initiative to fight back!
And that's the hope of victory!
The hope is very slim, because countless experts have long analyzed that the combat power of the human race itself, after being armed with various modern weapons, plus the group of supernatural beings, is still insignificant compared to the group of invaders.
The environment on Earth has changed, and this is something that ordinary people can feel. The geography has become wider, and the inherent cognition has been broken little by little. Modern weapons are becoming more and more powerless, and abilities are gradually replacing technology. This is not a step backwards of the times, because after the completion of this gradual change, the adaptability of human beings to the environment, and even productivity, has increased significantly.
The evolution of life should not be tricked, even if it is a scientific and technological civilization, it should not give up the development of the human body's potential, and human beings once went into a misunderstanding.
Fortunately, it has now been corrected, even at a very high cost.
Any civilization has its superiority, and scientific and technological civilization is the same, it is a double-edged sword, if used well, the benefits are self-evident, and if it is not used well, it will hinder the evolution and development of life.
When the old technological civilization is no longer suitable for the new world, it does not mean that it will be completely abandoned.
Since the invaders began to invade in a grand manner, the city of steel has also begun to provide various new technologies to adapt to the new environment for all countries free of charge, and the scientific and technological civilization that human beings rely on has thus recovered.
Unfortunately, this recovery is still too late, and the development of both technology and the growth of the Alien is still too slow and too slow.
Look at the scorched earth, look at the devastation, and don't ask, you can see that the rising human race is still on the weak side. It's even much weaker than the invaders, much weaker, not because humans are too weak, but because the invaders are too strong and terrifying!
Magical civilization, god and demon civilization, fairy civilization!
How many civilizations, how many races are invading the earth? a hundred, two hundred, a thousand?
If it weren't for the technical support of the Iron City, if it weren't for the very few invaders who were willing to cooperate with humanity and fight against other invaders, would humanity still be where it is today?
Hopefully, it's very slim, but at least it's still there!
The North Pole, a land covered in ice and snow, has increased the total area of the earth tenfold or hundredfold, and this once dead Jedi has also made the people facing it even more powerless.
If you want to cross the Ice Continent and reach the Steel City, don't say that ordinary people, even second- and third-order abilities, it is difficult to do it!
But even so, there are still countless people who want to go to the City of Steel every year, including even some real ordinary people.
Most of these people had heard about the freedom and power of the Iron City and had come to take refuge. They don't expect to be powerful, they just want not to have to face a terrifying invader.
Of course, not all outsiders who try to find the City of Steel are refugees. There are also a few who come to "ask for help".
Such people often have different origins, backgrounds, come from different countries, and represent different regimes.
Its average strength is also much stronger than those who flee, and there is no shortage of third- and fourth-order powerhouses who have a great hope of crossing the ice field. This is also because the ice field is full of countless terrible dangers dedicated to the strong, if it is only the environment and the ice and snow beasts, these people across the frozen soil to find the city of steel is completely sure.
The powerful foreign envoy who has traveled thousands of miles to the Arctic to adventure is to hope that the transcendent holy land standing on the ice field can give more support to mankind, whether it is tangible or invisible!
Unfortunately, these people tend to come back disappointed. Even most of them, who had seen the city of miracles, were all blocked out of the door, unable to even enter, worse than those pilgrims and refugees.
At least, if it is a coincidence, even if it is a refugee, even if it has fallen on the ice and snow one moment ago, when it wakes up, maybe the next second it will be found that he has been lucky to enter the Steel City!
The Steel City is still so big from the outside, and it has not expanded the surrounding area in any way, but the folding space inside it has been expanded thousands of times more than it was at the earliest, which needs to be replenished by the population.
Therefore, even the helpless refugees do have a chance to become the new residents of the Steel City, although the rights they have are definitely far inferior to those who joined the Steel City before the catastrophe!
The City of Steel is transcendent, how much support it is willing to give to other countries, how many refugees it is willing to take, all without external forces!
It does not accept any oppression or prayer, and it is not disturbed by any external forces!
Because of detachment, there is a kind of superiority!
If you are casually moved by others, affected, and stuck in the quagmire, is that still called detachment?
The only shortcut to enter the Iron City is to become a believer in the Iron God, but the requirements of the Iron God for believers are also notoriously strict, only fanatical believers can feel the call of the Iron God, false believers and shallow believers, and God will not treat them any favorably.
Shortcuts, too, are paid.
In the midst of the cataclysm, some may think that the Iron City has every obligation to help humanity fight the invaders.
For example, the residents of the Iron City obviously have very strong power and can obtain many things from the outside world that the outside world dreams of, but few of them are willing to help outsiders, which is undoubtedly very incomprehensible and even despised.
Could it be that if you have obtained the power of transcendence, you can have a transcendent mentality, and you can forget your roots?
The stronger the ability, the greater the responsibility, and the strong should protect the weak, which is a truth recognized by all the weak and the suffering.
But how many of the truly powerful, such as the inhabitants of Steel City, who are qualified to fight in this war, agree with this view?
Why help others for no reason. If you help others, who will help you and help the people you care about. In peacetime, this is just a slogan, and in the midst of disasters, it is a joke.
It is only in the face of true despair that the brilliance of humanity begins to shine.
The reason why that flickering glow is so dazzling is precisely because there is ugliness and evil all around!
I am always moved, but the reality is that I refuse to move.
The sages of the ancients, such a high consciousness, do not encourage brainless dedication.
Of course, there are a hundred interpretations of a sentence, and it is okay to generalize it and take it out of context.
To put it bluntly, whether it is those who promote slogans, those who try to make others pay, or those who are unwilling to promote slogans, who are unwilling to sacrifice themselves until death, will not mind others paying. Whether they are willing to give or not, everyone will not mind letting others bear the obligations and costs that should belong to them. What's more, there are always people who want to make decisions for others and decide their fate and future. This is actually a kind of selfishness, wishful thinking.
Steel City, Region 1, Space 0058.
Yue Pengju looked indifferently at the man in front of him who was begging for him.
This man is his youngest grandson, Yue Chong, who now holds the position of chief council member of the East Asian allies.
However, when facing him, Yue Pengju didn't feel the slightest warmth in his heart, only a faint boredom and indifference.
If it weren't for him, how could this person have today's status, and what difference would he have from those sentient beings who fell under the butcher's knife of the invaders?
However, now, he is trying to oppress himself in the name of righteousness, allowing himself to exchange his precious contribution points for expensive war props and contribute to the organization behind him for free!
Ridiculous, ridiculous.
Perhaps that kind of thought is not ridiculous in itself, if this man is not his grandson, he is not generous to others, he uses his own efforts to fulfill irrelevant people, sacrifices his life for righteousness, and can even be called great.
However, now he wants to use this greatness to persecute his relatives, his grandfather, what is this?
Everyone can pay for their own ideas, even if this idea is just a skin, there is still a dirty desire for power hidden in the bones, and others are not qualified to say strange things when they do their own things.
But if this kind of thing becomes a targeted weapon, a butcher's knife aimed at one's own people, then when more vested interests applaud, when the beneficiary groups try to prove that it is correct with a large amount of evidence, how can the minority under the tip of the knife not be afraid to resist!
"Get out! Get out of here! From now on, don't let me see you again!"
Yue Pengju, who still looked just middle-aged, only used one sentence to make him old enough to be his brother's grandson, and stopped talking.
"Grandpa, grandpa, what did you just say?!"
The politician in the suit couldn't believe it, and there was even a kind of anger hidden under his shocked appearance.
Yue Pengju felt his anger, only to feel disheartened, and shook his head helplessly.
Relatives and grandchildren, why bother to make such a fuss. He is a great person, is he really a ruthless person?
