Chapter 47: What is epoch-making (tactical backwards)
Time is a magical thing, and its length is easily influenced by subjective consciousness, such as whether a person is in the toilet or outside the toilet.
The speed of the Metaverse's flight has greatly accelerated for inexplicable reasons, shortening the time it takes to collide with the Atlantic Realm by half, leaving this world with five years to prepare.
These are sensitive times, and the forces are taking the shockwaves that sweep across Atlanta extremely seriously.
After sending representatives to deliberate, the Gewukai made a precise calculation, assuming that the shock wave came from another world, and to this extent, it came to the conclusion that there were still 5-7 years before the collision time.
This data is very accurate, after all, they are not cassias, but the precise conclusion does not bring joy, but weighs on everyone's hearts like a big mountain.
According to the original plan, they should have twenty years to go, and the various legions and other combat forces are starting from the doll, but now it's too late, far too late.
The world is still running, there are high-level actions at the top, and combat units from the north and south have begun to enter the western continent in batches, familiarizing themselves with the battlefield terrain in order to achieve the best run-in between different races.
Ordinary people at the bottom also have the lives of ordinary people, who do not know that disaster is coming, and they do not even know that the legions of their own country have unknowingly left their homeland.
The atmosphere of life suddenly became tense, the taxes became more and more serious, and the grain alone, some fertile land areas of the Kaiya Empire had reached the point of handing over half of it.
As the leader of the faith of the Kaia Empire, the Church of Light has significantly increased the number of believers in churches around the country during this time, and people have pinned their unsatisfactory life on the gods.
At the same time, Alena's sacrificial ritual failed, and she didn't even see a shadow of what had once been the kingdom of God.
Where there is light, there is darkness, she became the god of light for thousands of years, and the dark side that was hidden in the depths of her heart was ready to move again, and the more crazy will began to quietly erode Alena's soul.
Cruelty, anger, extremism, emotions that should not be present in a god are beginning to show their heads.
Ever since the ritual failed, Alena had locked herself up, saying that she was inspired by the gods, but no one knew what she was actually doing in the chamber.
The Kaia Empire was huge, too many garrisons were transferred from the mainland, and the people's complaints could not be contained, and just when the king had a headache, Sost stepped forward.
With a lot of wealth, he took the initiative to ask for help, and cooperated with the Gewu Society to acquire some inventions that he usually did not have time to promote, such as flush toilets, such as better fountain pens, and more efficient production machines.
He built factories in various places, providing jobs for ordinary people who could not make ends meet, while also making their lives more convenient.
In addition to the ready-made inventions, Sost even said that some half-developed inventions would be taken out if Gewu was moved, such as the things unearthed from the ruins that Gewu would call the internal combustion engine, such as ...... Petroleum.
Of course, there are many reasons why the Gewu Society is willing to agree, such as the fact that Sost is now a nobleman and has the king's endorsement behind him, such as the fact that all the power of the Gewu Society is focused on the development of firearms and weapons, and there is no time to pay attention to other things.
In short, Sost, a man who was once wanted by the Gewu Society, is now a partner, and as for the trouble that caused Ivos in the first place, for the sake of them bringing the news of the disaster out of Scarborough in the first place, no one pursues it anymore.
It didn't take long for Sost to finally stop getting involved in the business as an individual, but instead set up a shop-like organization, which he called 'The Company'.
Corporation, a strange new term that even kings have never heard of, has reappeared in the Atlantic world.
......
Tria
In a luxurious manor, Sost came to the study alone and gently closed the door.
Yafanka of the bookshelf couldn't wait to jump out and circle around him.
"Looks like he's in good shape, Yafanka. Sost smiled, and lifted Yafanka's hand out of thin air, giving a gentlemanly kiss on the back of his hand.
Yafanka's face turned red, although she didn't feel it, but her heart was still in turmoil.
"Ahem, it's the reason for this thing, as long as I carry it, it becomes very mental, Sost, you're right, it's a magical thing. ”
Yafanka said, holding a fragment of black sun the size of a grain of rice from the gap in the book, gently holding it in her hand, feeling the infinite power in it.
"Then you have to take it, although Alena hasn't paid attention to it for a long time, she has to guard against it. ”
Sost smiled, he was very handsome in his beard when he was middle-aged, and picked up the ancient book that sealed Yafanka.
It took him a long time to learn the text, and he even went so far as to contact Ferrante to ask for the 'dictionary' that had been given to him by Kvass.
And the word 'company' is also derived from this ancient book.
Looking at Sost, who was sitting at the table and reading carefully, Yafanka lay aside boredly: "You seem to be very busy lately, and I don't see you coming back often." ”
"It's really busy, the company has just been founded, and in my mind, it's a very different thing, and if the world can survive this disaster, Yafanka, we're going to change the world. ”
"But what if we're all dead that day?"
Sost was stunned, then smiled nonchalantly: "If you're dead, you're dead, so I can really hug you." ”
Yafanka rolled her eyes and tilted her head to the side.
"Besides, if the world is destroyed tomorrow, should we give up our lives today? No, we should live today more seriously. ”
"This ......"
Sost waved his hand: "Ferrante also understands this truth, you have read his letter, it is all this time, he is still thinking about the future, if this disaster passes, this guy may continue to cause trouble...... Maybe a lot of people will die. ”
Yafanka was speechless for a moment, although the two of them had not been in touch for a long time, their relationship never seemed to have diminished, but she was a little scared, afraid that Sost would also be involved.
Looking at Yafanka's expression, Sost narrowed his eyes with a smile: "Actually, setting up a company is only the first step to changing the world, and there is one more reason why I am determined to do so." ”
As she spoke, Sost took a letter from her bosom and handed it to Yavanka, who opened it in confusion and recognized Ferrante's handwriting on it.
"Sost, who I haven't seen for a long time, when I write this letter, there is a storm on the sea not far away, I hope that so many years of aristocratic life have not filled your brain, so that I don't have to worry about your IQ. ”
"To make a long story short, I have one thing here that is not particularly important, but very important. ”
"Two months ago, my ghost island was driven into a thunderstorm, and the thick thunder broke down many trees, and Sophia said that it was the eyes of the sea god patrolling the sea. ”
"But like you, I'm not a standard believer, but when I wake up from the nightmare of killing, I wonder why can't humans try to control thunder and lightning?"
"That's right, while Sophia is away, I tried it, and one of the dwarves on the island is very interested in it, and I won't go into too much detail about the process, and I'll send it to you after we've sorted out the details. ”
"Anyway, we succeeded, we controlled a thunderbolt, no, it's not thunder now, it's not even visible to the naked eye. ”
"But it's there, and it's reacting to the outside world, South, it's something that the whole world hasn't touched. ”
"Isn't it a gift from the gods when man can control the use of it? Of course, I used this reason to convince Sophia. ”
"In short, wait for my news, this will change an era. ”
"Your old friend, Ferrante. ”
Yafanka looked at the text on the letter with some consternation, and was speechless for a while.
"Yafanka, thunder and lightning, this is an epoch-making discovery, a discovery that can change the world, if time can be slowed down, it can even help this disaster. ”
Sost got up and looked out the window and continued, "Of course, I also hope that Ferrante is not going to turn this discovery into a weapon. ”
