Chapter 283: Feedback from the Signal Box
More than 360 visitors from 20 forces, on the last day of the Kingdom of Light, experienced the feeling of hovering in the air after a pair of six large turbines were launched on the Youxia Aerospace Aircraft Carrier, and their mouths opened wide in surprise.
"Your Majesty the God King, I don't want to go back, let me stay here, as long as some people go back." Many pleaded like this.
"Go back, all of you, and tell your chiefs and companions what you have seen, that if they all agree to be my people, press the red button on the signal box in your hand, and in seven days at the earliest, I will take you to your place in the Ark of Flight. When the time comes, you can pack up your things and get on my ark. β
"Your Majesty, don't you need our ship?"
"No, I'll build bigger ships to house you, and I'll be able to put them all on the same boats as those ships, no matter how many come."
Everyone looked in the direction of Tianming's finger, and after seeing the huge living boats lined up, they said, "Okay, I'll talk to my leader." β
β¦β¦
After these people went back, they made huge waves.
They describe what they have seen and heard in the most flowery rhetoric they can conceive in their minds, but they still seem to have a lack of vocabulary, and they may not be able to do the Cheng dΓΉ that earthlings add fuel and vinegar to, but they basically reflect the real situation.
Bay No. 7.
"Did you really eat the most delicious food in the world? Got on board the sturdiest ship? Slept in the most stable bed in the world? Got a flying ark? One of the people around him asked the man in the middle.
"Of course it's true, I ate a lot of stuff that day, that kind of plates, knives and forks, even the captain didn't have. And their ships, all made of metal, are not only very strong, but one is ten times bigger than us! And the Ark. There are two arks there, one is a wooden ark that can't fly, and the other is a flying ark, the flying ark is very big, bigger than our 100 ships combined, and there are many people living in it, that is, all the people in our place live in it, and there is no problem. The narrator gestured with his hands.
One person's eyes widened, "Wow! Such a big ark? Can it really fly? β
The narrator was even more excited, and stood up directly and said, "Of course you can fly!" I'm standing on it. I saw the ark fly with my own eyes, my feet were shaking, I couldn't hear anyone at a loud level, and then, I saw far below, I saw clouds in the sky, I saw a lot of things that I couldn't see before! β
"This, this ......" the people around him opened their mouths wide and tried to imagine the scene he described.
But their imagination is relatively lacking, and they will be stunned. Another went on to ask the narrator, "Then how can we go to that kingdom of God?" β
"They're going to pick us up, the kind of Ark of Flying will come over, and we'll just pack up our things and wait for them to come." The narrator pointed to the captain's boat and said, "If the chiefs agree." We can all go to that kingdom of God. β
In the cabin, several leaders looked at the signal box on the table and discussed it for a while.
"Leader Zero, is what you see real?" The older leader asked.
"It's true. As soon as we press this red thing, after 7 days, they will come and pick us up. β
"They really don't want our boats? Boats are a very precious thing. β
"It could be a trap. That god-king was so strange that he didn't even want a boat. One of the leaders voiced his concerns.
"Wooden ships are useless to the Light God King, the ships in his fleet are basically made of silver and steel metal, very strong, he said, as soon as we pass, we will give us better ships." Zero Duo explained.
"Then after we pass, can I still be my leader? Can I still lead my people? Another leader, voiced his real concern.
Power and status are the highest priorities of the superiors, and although it is the end of the world, the catastrophe is not yet imminent, and before that, they still enjoy the supreme power of the leader, ruling the life and death of thousands of people. It would be a very painful transition to let them lose that right and become an ordinary person.
Just like the emperors in ancient times, in order to keep their thrones, virtuous ministers and fierce generals, who can't be killed? No matter how much internal and external troubles are encountered, keeping one's throne is the first priority, and then ceding some territory to the outside world and compensating more than one billion taels of silver, it is not a matter, just levy more taxes on the small people.
The small people are very patient and will not rebel until they starve to death.
The same is true of these chiefs, who are now thinking most about their status.
"Someone asked this question to His Majesty the God King, and His Majesty the God King said that as long as the leaders agree to join him, when the time comes, he will give the leaders the status of nobility, as well as the salary of 20 gold dora per month, and when he returns to the mainland, he will give the nobles a large piece of land, and in the future, that land will be the permanent fief of the nobles." Zero Duo explained.
On the Continent of the God King, the system of territorial subdivision is implemented, and although the small people are nominally the children of the God King, the land where they are located is still under the jurisdiction of various lords, which gives rise to the concept of fiefdom.
"It's been many years since we got back on land, what do we do now? If there are no ships, no sailors and soldiers, they are lonely people without any security, what is the difference between them and those untouchables? β
"That's right, in the past, when many forces defected to the Sea God Kingdom, they could at least seal a general, and they could continue to lead his ships and soldiers to fight, can we continue to lead our soldiers after we have passed like this?"
Zero Duo has described the armed forces of the Kingdom of Light, which is a kind of warship that does not need sails and oars, and the soldiers on it are all professional sailor soldiers, which are technical troops, and ordinary sailors go up, and it takes a long time to cultivate.
Not only that, but if you want to be the captain of a warship, you must be loyal enough to His Majesty the God King, have strong individual force, and have a rope of faith connected to him, so as to facilitate the control of the fleet.
That is to say, when they have passed, they will definitely not be able to be generals with troops, but can only be ordinary nobles without soldiers and power.
"This ...... This one. Zero Duo also fell into hesitation. He only saw the hope of survival and the picture cake that the God King of Light had painted for him, and he didn't think about the rest so much.
Ling Duo pursed his lips, and then made up his mind, and said to several leaders: "I'm tired of fighting and killing at sea, since His Majesty the God King promised us such good conditions, what does it matter if you are an ordinary nobleman?" The end has come, and being alive is already the best gift. If you still have to hesitate, then I will press that red thing myself, and His Majesty the God King of Light will come and take me away. β
After speaking. Zero Duo stretched out his hand and pressed the red button on the signal box suddenly.
"Zero, you?" The leaders next to him couldn't stop him, and when he pressed the button, they could only look at him helplessly.

The signal box is a simple pulse signal transmitting device, which emits a narrow range of signals but is very strong, and can be received by nanosatellites more than 600 kilometers above the ground. After receiving the signal, the nanosatellite will transmit the signal to the command center of the Transocean, and then a red bright spot will appear on the electronic map. It symbolizes that this force has been subdued.
After seeing the red dot lit up, the signalman excitedly called the commander-in-chief of the "Youxia" aerospace aircraft carrier and told everyone the news that a force had been successfully subdued.
"The news came from Bay 7. The reply was pretty fast. β
"Bay 7 is the smallest of the 20 forces, estimated to have just over 100,000 people. But this is a good start, and the other forces should make a decision soon. β
"Tell Commander SΓΉ about this, he's busy building a ship."
β¦β¦
Bay 21, the area where the Tree Ship Country is located.
There are more than 800 tree boats in the bay, each of which looks like an origami paper boat, with a towering center and a flat concave circumference, with lush foliage and dense underwater roots, which looks very vibrant.
The internal cabins of the tree ship are all according to the will of the priests, and the tree ship grows spontaneously, and each tree ship has several closed cabins.
In addition, tree holes and tree houses grew in the trunks and branches of the tree boat, and many people could live in these tree holes and tree houses. Taken together, a tree ship can accommodate more crew than a real wooden ship.
In the middle of the tree ship fleet, a huge tree ship with a length of nearly 300 meters, in a large cabin of this ship, the lights are brightly lit, and many captains and elders are in a meeting.
The white-bearded elder said, "The Tree Boat is a sacred tree that has allowed us to continue for hundreds of years, and we will never give up the Tree Boat, even if it is death!" β
The Fire Ancestor stood up anxiously: "Elder Duoqiu, the last round of the storm has already caused the Tree Kingdom to suffer huge losses, if we don't find a way to join a Divine Kingdom, we may not even be able to save a ship, can you bear to watch the rest of the people die in the sea?" Huo Zu said to the noble man sitting at the top: "Your Majesty, please say something." β
The Tree Ship Country is a huge sea country, forming a kind of kingdom similar to the sea kingdom, but the king is not the same as the god king of the kingdom of God, he is not the object of worship of the people, but just another name for the supreme chief.
"Does he have enough ships to house more than 20 million people in the Tree Boat Country?" The king asked.
"Yes, the Light-King is a powerful god who can build many metal ships. He said that no matter how many people there are, they can be settled. β
"Can he take all his ships to the north?"
"Yes, his Flying Ark can carry many people at a time, and it can fly far away. The god-king also said that he would take the ship to the north in a special way, and promised to bring it all to the north. β
"What about the tree boat, can he take the tree boat with him?"
"This, this, he said we can only have one faith."
"If he's willing to help us get the tree boat away, we're willing to trust him, including me." King's Road.
β¦β¦
Bay 17, where thousands of large ships are moored.
The shells of 200 of these ships are wrapped in a thin layer of black iron, which is hard and strong, and because of the corrosion-resistant properties of black iron, the wood parts of these ships are not soaked in water, so they are not easy to rot.
In the center of the fleet, there were two silver-shining flagships, the surface of which was covered with silver steel that only alchemists could smelt, although it was only a thin layer of silver steel, but it was far harder than those iron ships.
Inside the flagship, a person is walking back and forth with his hands behind his back, in a state of contemplation.
One of his subordinates next to him kept talking to him like a chatterbox.
"Lord Luo Bo, with your ability, you will definitely be reused by the Light God King!"
"Lord Luo Bo, the Light God King said that as long as you are willing to join him, you will be a priest at the level of a red-robed elder in the Light God Kingdom in the future."
"Lord Luo Bo, you have already rejected the invitation of the five god kings, this time, you must seize the opportunity!"
The leader, dressed in a white robe, continued to muttered to himself: "How did you make that kind of ark that could fly in the sky? β
"As long as you join the Light God King, don't you know how the flying ark was made?" The subordinate who was a little hoarse and smoking, after hearing the content of the leader's own words, replied casually.
The white-robed leader's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly: "Yes, as long as I join him, will I soon know how the Flying Ark was built?" Yes, join him! He turned to his men and said, "Flowing bones, what can I do to join him?" β
"Lord Luo Bo, have you agreed to join the God King of Light?" The man asked, surprised.
"Why don't you join? My iron boat can't stop the waves so high, and sooner or later I will have to join a kingdom of God. β
"That's, that's great, Lord Luo Bo, this is the box that the God King of Light gave me, you just need to press the red lid on the box, and he will come and pick us up in seven days at the earliest." Flowbone pointed to a box on the table.
The leader held the box in his hand and observed it for a while, it was a little heavy and looked strange, but he didn't think much of it, and pressed his hand down on the red button...... (To be continued......)
