Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Fortress City "Paradise"
(Darukus looks delicious!) It's a pity that you can't eat it! )
"Ah Zhe! What's going on? Verugin looked at Azhe in surprise. If it was just a few speedboats, they wouldn't have been so surprised. But that's not the case with a city of this size.
"Ahh Introduce yourself again! I am a visitor from another world. What you see is the city that I have built. Ah Zhe once again gave a gentlemanly salute to everyone. Ah Zhe, who wore a black trench coat and saluted, was not funny when he was on the beach at this time, but gave people a feeling that he couldn't touch and couldn't see clearly.
Later, Ah Zhe once again told the others where he came from and what he came to this world for. Of course, Ah Zhe didn't directly say that he was here for the dead, otherwise the soldiers of the Calamity Raven would immediately aim their guns at themselves and reward them with a shuttle of bullets.
After Ah Zhe finished telling his origins, everyone except Alicia and Artemisia seemed even more stunned. As for Artemisia and Alicia, they were because they had stayed in Azhe's origin, and now they are not surprised by Azhe's origin.
"That's it! I've said all that's all I need to tell you. Now I'm going to give you a tour of the city. After that, let's go to the conference room and summarize it well. After speaking, Ah Zhe took the lead and led everyone towards the interior of the city.
The park was renovated from a small island that had been hollowed out entirely. The total area is 14,000 square kilometers, and the total height is 6.8 million meters. Among them, the civilian residential area is 2,640 square kilometers, which can accommodate up to 6 million civilians. 2,800 square kilometers are natural ecological areas, 1,000 square kilometers are agricultural areas, and 700 square kilometers are spare blank areas, which are temporarily classified as natural ecological regions. The remaining area is a military area. On the outside is a special alloy skeleton, which is full of external automatic combat modules, but there is no gap in the whole. Modules that are damaged are drained from the walls and replaced with spare modules inside. Depending on the situation, different modules can also be selected. The city is divided into two floors, the lower floor is mainly the military-industrial area and the building module and the armed module. During combat, the building will be retracted from the lower level in place of the Vault effect, and the weapon module will be replaced for counterattack. There are five power systems throughout the city. One is the main power system, two backup power systems, and one emergency power system and solar energy system. There will be some surplus of power from the backup system to support all life-saving systems as well as military systems. The emergency system can only support the most basic armed capabilities in the city. The last solar power system is to collect the heat of sunlight to store electricity, mainly to support domestic electricity. At present, the power system is still being improved, in order to achieve the degree of uninterrupted power.
"That's the overall stats after the completion of the complete Paradise City." Ah Zhe gave a general introduction to the main functions of the entire Paradise City to the people who had been completely stunned. Of course, Ah Zhe also hid a lot, and reserved a lot of spare areas in the whole city. The most obvious is the role of the 700 square kilometers, in fact, the entire park can be transformed into a space city. The 700 square kilometers are reserved for future upgrades to space cities.
But the answer A-Zhe received was silence.
"Hey! I said it was time for you to go back to your souls! You've been in a daze since you entered the city. How long are you going to stay? Ah Zhe covered his face helplessly. Since watching the city, these people have deepened their daze again.
The crowd who was pulled back to their souls by Azhe just smiled awkwardly and didn't say anything.
"Huh! The city is simply amazing. "Artemisia's body is full of ecstasy. In his eyes, this kind of city is simply an ideal town that can never be attacked, and the fortresses around the world that are claimed to be never able to be conquered are simply children's things.
"Of course! We've basically put all the technology we know into the city. At present, we have only prioritized the construction of military installations, and now only a small part of the military zone and a large number of residential areas have not yet been completed, but there are enough for 130,000 civilians to live. Because the military zone and the residential area are separated, the residential area for the servicemen has been completely built. The city can accommodate fifteen million military personnel at its maximum. Because the city's main source of food comes from the crop cultivation building, a total of 17 million square kilometers of land can be transformed as needed. "Ah Zhe originally built the city as a military fortress, so the number of soldiers in the city far exceeded the number of civilians. At the beginning, Ah Zhe's idea was that all the people were soldiers, so the ratio of soldiers to civilians was not too exaggerated.
But Artemisia frowned, "Why is the proportion of military personnel so high?" There is also very little land in the farming area, what is that crop cultivation building? The others also looked at Ah Zhe suspiciously.
"The city was originally built as a fortress city, and the types of jobs that required civilians in the city were very scarce. Moreover, the military area occupies more than half of the entire park, and the city is divided into upper and lower levels. Fifteen million soldiers are only a standing force in the city, and in this case there are large areas that can only be defended by automatic defense systems. If it is full, it will have more than 30 million soldiers. "Azhe didn't intend to leave the city, it was built to kidnap all the Darukus. Otherwise, how could his 300 cubic kilometers of space fit such a large city. "As for the crop cultivation building, it is perfectly capable of providing food for 50 million people without sacrificing quality. The maximum yield is 2.8 times the normal yield, and of course the taste of the food will deteriorate considerably. ”
"Great! We, the Darukus, are saved! The soldiers of the Raven of Calamity embraced each other with tears streaming down their eyes. The long-held struggles and dreams are about to come true. Your own country, a safe place to live. Everything made them feel like they were in a dream.
"What price do we have to pay?" Da Artemisia, who was extremely surprised, calmed down. Years of life have taught him that there is no such thing as a free lunch. If you want to get something, you have to give something. The rules of equivalent exchange are followed by anyone with a bit of brains, no matter what the world.
"It's easy!" Ah Zhe sat down on a chair in the conference room and put his feet on the table, "I need you to be my strength. Become my strength in conquering other worlds. ”
"What?" XN。 At this moment, not only the Calamity Crow was surprised, but also Virujin and the others looked at Ah Zhe in surprise. The experience in the past few months made them feel that they still knew Ah Zhe somewhat. Whether it is Ah Zhe's behavior or public opinion, he has always shown an incomparable hatred of war, why does he want to start a war in other worlds now?
"You don't think this is the only world that's going on at war, do you?" Ah Zhe looked at the stunned crowd and said with some amusement.
"You mean," Verugin and Artemisia thought as they lowered their heads after hearing Azhe's words. They don't know what the rest of the world is like, but where there are people, there is always strife. Well, since there is strife, war is not an impossible thing.
"Everything I have comes from the dead. Then the fastest way to die is war. But I have no intention of provoking a war. In that case, then the only way to go is to go to those planes that have already started the war. Our goal is to put an end to this war. And in the period of ending the war, those who died were my harvest! As he said this, Ah Zhe lowered his feet and lowered his head and sighed, "Although it will make you think that I am hypocritical to say this, this is how I do it. You should think of it as a kind of self-psychological comfort. Ah~ What a hypocrite! ”
After listening to Ah Zhe's words, everyone lowered their heads and didn't know what they were thinking. Only Alicia silently walked up to Azhe's side and hugged him gently.
"It's okay! Ah Zhe is so kind. Although there will still be sacrifices for such things, many more will be saved because of it. Ah Zhe would go to the orphanage every time he was resting to donate, every time someone was injured, Ah Zhe would help each other very carefully, help civilians when they were threatened by war, and give their own supplies to each other when refugees had no food and clothing. So ~ please stop being hypocritical or anything. Azhe, who was hugged by Alicia, didn't say anything, just lowered his head so that no one could see his expression.
After hearing Alicia's words, the others were also silent. It is true that the other side did nothing wrong, did not cause a war, did not act as an arms dealer to support the war. Even to a certain extent, the expansion of the war was prevented and civilians were protected. Now such a huge city has been built to rescue the Darukus.
"Puff~Puff haha~" Under such a touching atmosphere, a discordant voice drilled out. Just when everyone was dissatisfied with the search for this kind of voice, they found that this voice came from Ah Zhe.
"Ha~haha! I'm laughing to death! How can I be so great! Ah Zhe laughed and slapped the table, "Yes! I'm not that great. Because I have a purpose, because I can do better. I could save more people, but that means more lives will die. How ironic it sounds to save with death. Ah Zhe smiled and began to gasp. But the others did not detach themselves from the atmosphere just now.
"Ahem~ha~ha~I'll tell you~a story~!" Ah Zhe raised a finger, but he didn't speak immediately, but eased his breath and continued, "There is a very wealthy traveler. During one of his trips, he met robbers who robbed him of all his money and food. The traveler walks towards the city in order not to starve to death in the wilderness, and when he is dying of starvation, he finally enters the city and meets a rich man. When the rich man saw each other, he casually threw down a few gold coins and left. The travelers thanked each other very much and returned to their homes after eating and drinking enough in the city. When he returned home, he took out a small part of his property and returned it to the rich man, who was very happy about it. The traveler was robbed on another trip, and in the same situation he met a poor man in the city. The poor man, seeing that he was dying, hesitated, and after a moment gave the traveler what little ration he had earned today, and took the traveler back to his home. And he was hungry all night. When the traveler returned home, he did not repay the poor. Do you know why? Ah Zhe carefully observed the expressions of the crowd. Most people are very upset with the traveler's behavior, and only a few are thinking carefully about why.
After waiting for a few seconds, Ah Zhe continued to tell the following story: "It didn't take long for the traveler to revisit the old place. He went to the rich man's city first. In the city, travelers hear that the rich have failed in their business and are completely bankrupt. Tomorrow I have to sell my house to make ends meet. The traveler, after thinking about it for a while, bought the rich man's house the next day and returned the house to the rich man. The rich are very grateful to the travelers, but the travelers ask the rich to do business work for themselves. The wealthy, who had no other source of livelihood, had no choice but to agree. Then the traveler came to the city where the poor were. But he saw that the poor man was about to be sentenced to death for stealing the food of a ** nobleman. Frightened, the traveler hurriedly found the nobleman, hoping to buy back the lives of the poor with money. But the cunning aristocracy said an astronomical amount that a large amount of money would almost bankrupt the traveler, but the traveler did not hesitate to buy back the lives of the poor with his own money. After the poor man was rescued, the traveler apologized to the poor man with great self-reproach, saying: "I thought your kindness could not be measured by money, but it almost cost you your life. But the poor man said, "I just gave you a little food, it's not a big deal." You saved my life today. The traveler said nothing. Then the traveler and the poor man went together, and both men regarded each other as their best brothers until their deaths. ”
After hearing this story, those who had not been angry with the traveler's behavior before were stunned. They didn't expect such an outcome.
"Because the poor give their best! And the rich are just casual? Dahao and Verugin said at the same time. After hearing each other's words, the two looked at each other in surprise.
"That's right! And I~ am the rich man. Ah Zhe leaned back in his chair and said softly.
After hearing Ah Zhe's words, everyone fell silent
