Chapter 491: Zelandia's Next Fifty-Year Development Plan
In front of Levi was a star floating silently in the void, like a silent world of the dead.
It is the world engine of the space necrons of another world.
The World Engine itself is a man-made tomb planet driven by the star god sealed in a four-dimensional labyrinth, and any planet-level weapon on it can turn all life on the star into ashes.
In the history of Terra's civilization, a world engine that woke up in advance was discovered, which was besieged by the Terra Imperial Navy and fifteen Space Marine warbands, sacrificing millions of combat power, and even the most superficial shield could not be broken.
In the final moment of despair, it was the Astral Knights who drove their flagship and brazenly crashed into the world engine, and forcibly opened the shield in this jade-like way, and then deployed all the remaining Star Marines to rush into the world engine and overload the energy core, which finally paralyzed the world engine, and finally ended the tragic battle at the cost of the sacrifice of the entire Astral Knights.
What kind of concept is this, if you put those space marines who have served in that cruel world for centuries in the world of Corell, it is basically at the level of legends to demigods per capita!
With such an exaggerated combat power, it was necessary to defeat the world engine in such a heroic way, which was almost already the realm of 'gods'.
Because the energy core it uses is itself a fragment of a god, a star god.
With the star god as the core of the world engine, its energy is theoretically endless.
'Could it be that Kaka meant to have his family develop a creation like the World Engine to 'seal' the fragments of the star god in the depths of Zeelandia, the Fraudster Moffett Lan?'
Thinking of this, the corners of Levi's mouth twitched, and he withered like a puffer fish that had been poked and leaked.
How can it be so easy...
Even if he had obtained the full tech tree of the Dreadnosaur civilization, he would not have dared to say that he would be able to build such a in his lifetime in a completely different world like Correll.
What's more, the Death-Dreaded Library given by Kaka is bleak, and even the more basic Gauss weapon data is incomplete, let alone the World Engine, which is located at one of the apex of the tech tree.
Because of its core technology, the four-dimensional labyrinth that can block all the fragments of the star god is not scientific at all, right?
That's already the realm of metaphysics.
If he remembered correctly, it was supposed to be a technique developed by the Ancient Saints that was originally intended to be used against the Star Gods.
But just as Levi was about to veto this possibility, the scene of the fraudster who had fled in his longest dream was shot through the labyrinth of space suddenly came to mind...
The spear full of the style of the ancient saint creation!
Levi closed his eyes in a dark dream.
In the deepest part of Zeelandia, on a load-bearing beam where the ore body mountain layer had been hollowed out, a patrolling 'Silencer' slime suddenly stopped and slowly raised his eyes that became vivid.
I saw that the iron giant, covered in metal armor, had a spear full of sacred religious style stuck in his chest.
It is white throughout, like two slender star tracks twisted and closed at one-seventh of the end and divided into forks, as if symbolizing the highest form of the world's material and spiritual union.
'And so it was...'
Levi breathed a sigh of relief.
It turns out that the most brilliant jewel in the crown of the top technology in that world has come to this world with the fraudster fragment.
At the same time, I finally understood why he would be so 'honest' with the ability of a fraudster.
Compared with the other party's 'gorgeous' record in the universe next door, such a sneaky method as 'sneaking into dreams with the wind' is already a drop in the bucket.
And even that kind of inconspicuous means almost killed him in his dream.
Levi couldn't imagine what a dismal fate he would face if he fell in the other party's way at that time.
This thing is so dangerous...
It was so dangerous that with Levi's strength at this moment, he didn't even dare to take the initiative to wake it up, let alone use the holy spear that imprisoned his spirit in the four-dimensional labyrinth.
Since the other party has been able to infiltrate a wisp of his consciousness, it is enough to show that this holy spear cannot perfectly seal it.
It's also, after all, the original intention of the holy spear was developed, maybe... It's just a bullet fired at the star.
How much can you expect from a 'bullet'.
To perfectly block it and use it, it has to rely on the existence of the World Engine.
It's like an endless loop that is hard to unravel.
'What should I do?'
Ah, let's hold it off for now.
Levi decided to put his plan against the fraudster back for now.
This is also a kind of 'respect' for this world-destroying evil god.
And just when Levi came back to his senses, the two mung bean-like eyes suddenly stopped.
Because I don't know when the eyes of the Iron Giant have been shining...
I'm looking at him!
It's like I'm looking at the world-famous painting - the smile of the Mona Lisa...
But that 'smile' fell in Levi's eyes, but it was terrifying.
Levi immediately controlled his instinctive reaction and did not make any drastic moves, but some unknown language still sounded like an idiot from all directions:
"Le Mont Rischi... Dresti..."
"Le Mont Rischi... Dresti..."
At the same time, Levi only felt that his mind was beginning to brew with manic, terrifying, nervous, and radical emotions, and all kinds of visions were overgrown like weeds.
I saw those slimes on patrol as if they had grown bare wings and hideous barbs, swallowing the wind of the sun, and walking in the air.
Seeing the mushrooms on the rock wall expanding at a rate visible to the naked eye, spreading a mist of plague and poison through the holes that would make a dense phobia die violently, with an expression of kindness that would not discriminate in the face of death.
Seeing that the metal giant in the center of the stone mountain seemed to have finally broken free from the shackles of the armor, an angelic bright aura appeared above his head, and it slowly rose into the air without wind, opening his hands to him, as if to embrace him in his arms.
Just when the body fluids of the slime that Levi 'descended' seemed to be boiling and bursting, and the blood vessels of his own body were about to explode, all the figures and illusions disappeared together, and only the other party's pair of eyes like a void were left in his eyes, and at the same time, a kind elder-like vicissitudes of life sounded in his ears:
"Void friend, fate will eventually make us one...
"This is extinction, but also rebirth.
"You and I... In, calamity, disaster, escape..."
Levi's possessed slime was silent for a full three seconds, then showed a look of bewilderment that didn't understand what you were saying, and finally let out a whisper that also made no sense:
"Uh~"
Then, like an ordinary slime with no emotion, pursuit, and intelligence, it slowly advanced into the complex rock formations of the beehive like a caterpillar.
The Iron Giant lost its slime in front of him, and his expression was as silent as it had been for countless thousands of years.
It's like nothing has ever happened.
Levi immediately retracted his consciousness as soon as he broke away from the other party.
"Whew..."
On the highest throne in the Council Chamber of the Seventh City of Minastilis, Levi opened his eyes and gasped violently, only to find that his scales were all standing up like a fried cat, and the blazing heat was spewing out of his mouth, ears, and nostrils, so that many of the metal components in the council chamber melted away.
"Boss/Master/Lord!" Calvin and the others all showed nervous and solemn expressions.
It was the first time they had seen their lord lose his temper like this.
"It's fine, no need to worry. Levi, who had calmed down, raised his paw and said.
He looked at the bright and bustling world outside the main hall, and knew that he had almost walked on the brink of a life-and-death crisis before.
The gap between himself and the star god is still too big, so big that it seems that just getting closer, or a look, can lose oneself.
Levi took a deep breath, as if alerting himself, and as if comforting his dependents:
"It's just... It's just a nightmare..."
Cenarian and the others were all relieved, Levi's reaction just now fell in their eyes, it was really a little terrifying...
It's like... Suddenly it became like a chaotic and hideous dragon.
But it is much more terrifying and terrifying than those so-called evil dragons!
Only Calvin, who had heard Levi mention a few words, looked at him thoughtfully, his eyes full of worry, but he didn't know what he could do.
After a short silence, Levi smiled and looked around at everyone:
"However, there is also a gain. ”
Then he said to the gnolls guard:
"Inform all councillors of the Free City-State of Zeellandia to convene a meeting. ”
"Follow your will. ”
The other dependents looked at each other in surprise.
Because every meeting convened by the lord is of extraordinary significance, and almost dominates the direction and development of the city-state in the coming decades.
Soon, the second meeting of the Free City-State of Zeelandia, temporarily initiated by Levi, was officially convened in the council chamber.
In this meeting, Levi, as the lord of the city, proposed a strategy for the development of Zeelandia for the next 50 years, and formulated the main objectives and historical missions of the Northland United Development Bank, namely:
With Minas Stirris as the core and radiating to the surrounding areas, the intercity expressway connecting Jishui City, Minas Stirris, and Silver Moon City will be built as the iron triangle, and the small and medium-sized towns such as Hongsong Town, Sanzhudi, Yata, Chang'an Town, and Nemyss will be built along the way.
Completely end the dilemma that the traffic in the north from winter to late spring is almost sluggish.
Finally, the integration strategy of the Northland will be realized.
The proposal of this article is expected by everyone, after all, Levi's phalanx strategy in the past has been following this path, but it is not so straightforward, and it will also face problems such as authority and political power after the merger of the city-state.
However, after the resurgence of the evil on the island of Moonshadow and the theft of the Tablet of Destiny, Levi, Erastro Kelburn, and the Silvermoon Dragon Mother have realized that an unprecedented chaos and crisis may be brewing in the dark.
At this juncture, it is naturally better to warm up in a group, and everything else is secondary and negotiable.
But the next topic is a little foggy for everyone.
Among them, there is a 'Great Eastern Development Strategy', in which Levi proposes to rebuild a new city directly on the border of the Silvermoon Federation, on the former land of Netherrell and the border of the present-day Enook Desert, and start a reforestation program to the eastern desert with Eskow as the center.
In this regard, it is possible to hire druids from Lunaris Island on a large scale to work in the Northland to earn labor fees to support the construction of Lunaris Island's hometown.
It wasn't until Levi, in the name of Zeellandia's Magic Institute, announced that he had cracked the Stone of Connor, from the Nether era, that the entire conference hall caused an uproar.
Obviously, the spellcasters in Zeellandia still know the significance of mass-loading Connor's Stone, something that has not been possible in the Nether era.
Its raw material, the Cheldalin gemstone, has only been found in the mountains of the Enoch Desert.
After the meeting, Levi left Iggy, Calvin, Fischer, Anthony, Blasca and other spellcasters, and personally handed over the library that Kaka had sorted out.
Although it weighed only one engram, it was like a thousand pounds when it fell into Iggy's hands.
"Iggy, this is the glory and brilliance of Netheriel's gone, the crown of the wisdom of the Great Arcanes, don't let it continue to be dusty. ”
Iggy took a deep look at the five cornerstones of Nether, and solemnly saluted Levi as a courtier of Zelandia, and said:
"Bear witness to my life and the rationality of the Arcanist. ”
Levi nodded and joked:
"Go, it's up to you whether or not I can see Zelandia ascend to heaven in my lifetime. ”
Fischer scratched her bald and shiny head, and replied with a smile:
"Boss, you underestimate us too much, in your lifetime, maybe we will all ascend you to the sky. ”
As a result, he found that not only did no one respond to him, but even Levi looked at him with a peculiar look, and suddenly the sweat in his head rushed out, and he quickly explained:
"Well, I mean, with your talent, boss, maybe..."
"Don't be nervous. ”
Levi smiled and said, "However, I don't have the idea of becoming a god for the time being, it's too far away. ”
What he didn't say in his heart was that maybe before that, he might have to deal with a god first.
Levi didn't limit the scope of Iggy's R&D, but only gave him a few expected directions.
Because they, the elite spellcasters of the native Corell, must know better than themselves which 'technologies' are more suitable for this land and water.
After Iggy and the group left, Levi inexplicably felt a deep sense of tiredness sweeping over him, and he almost 'died' on the spot.
But Levi forcibly resisted the sudden sleepiness.
He wasn't sure if he, who had just met the fraudster, would fall into that eternal darkness again, as he had done last time.
And this time, I may not be as lucky as last time to 'know that I am dreaming'...
Just as Levi was pondering the question of whether to sleep or not, another being was called a Xiang.
......
Everything seemed to be shrouded in eternal night, but it was not a lonely darkness, but a pleasant summer night for dogs, full of twinkling stars and silver moonlight.
Dog's head emerged from the gap in the space, looking greedily at the colorful scene in front of him, and in the distance were countless fortresses and palaces like sand dune toys, filled with the fragrance of food.
Its lower jaw was soaked in the gentle lapping of the shallow waves on the seashore, like a traveler who had walked in the Void Desert for countless years, and even the waters full of holy power were as sweet as milk in the memory of its taste, but there was a hint of taste missing at the moment.
Probably another dream.
The big dog thought so.
However, in the most inhabited place of the outer plane, the Crazy Tunnel, it is the most enjoyable place in the dream, and in addition, it is the same loneliness and madness as him.
Only in a peaceful dream, in the endless gluttony and destruction, it seems that a moment of peace can be obtained.
So the giant dog that emerged from the crack in the shore trampled the frightened warner to death, and then swallowed it like a snack.
The soul of the one who prays... Sure enough, luscious.
The warning of the figure soon attracted more, and the silver sea rushed out two glowing balls, and kept sprinkling a slight tingling light in the warm ocean towards him.
It completely ignores those external stimuli and indulges in its own enjoyment.
Soon more small people and even small lizards rose on the seven-story mountain, among which the seven large lizards were the most conspicuous, but unfortunately they were not very good at catching.
Surrounded by seven large lizards, a lizard about its size flew out of the shiny white palace.
This delighted it, and it rushed up to the cold Mirror Lake against the spitting saliva of the lizards, and had fun in the endless green fields.
In the lower river, there are many short men with small hammers, of course, in its eyes, these figures are not much different from the previous ones, even if they are half a half shorter than before, they are just chewier and more comfortable when giving themselves pedicures.
And when he ran up to the more dazzling layer of light, many winged birdmen began to appear in the sky, and at the same time, there were also beings like the large lizard that could make him feel pain.
But even the pain doesn't stop it from eating.
On the contrary, this alternative stimulation gives it a sense of being alive.
But this is a dream after all, and even if it is painful, it seems to be separated by an invisible crystal wall, making it more uncomfortable and crazy.
Finally, the little people tore open a rift that led to the dark void, like a big mouth, slowly opening towards it.
"No... I don't want to go back... There is nothing there. ”
"I need to eat, I need companionship, I... Need more!"
"Woohoo woohoo!"
Just as it was about to be banished back into the void like a vague memory, the whole world suddenly froze, and everything came to a standstill.
Then a giant covered in metal tore open its front and stepped into its dream, staring at it.
Kozv's tail immediately drooped, and he was straight, and he looked at each other with bared teeth.
For the first time, it felt threatened.
The other party has an aura similar to it.
"Void friend, fate will eventually make us one...
"This is extinction, but also rebirth.
"You and I... In, calamity, disaster, escape..."
The dog was silent for a full three seconds, then showed a bewildered look that didn't understand what you were saying, and finally let out a bark that also didn't make any sense:
"Woohoo woohoo!"
Then he turned his head and continued to roll in the mirror lake and the green fields, biting the little people and the big lizards that had come back to life, as if the figure like an evil god did not exist.
As everything in front of me ripples and blurs like water.
Kozf found his dog's head stuck in the door of the new world, and everything in front of him was filled with a fragrance called hope.
Is that... The fragrance of the food.
The dog feasts.
Endless dreams, cycles.
Just like food in an infinite world.
Life and death, reincarnation continues.
We live, they die!
Only the eyes that hang high in the night sky are always the same.
Like a loving Father, or...
Trying to raise dogs and then have a dog meat feast...
Dog cook.
