Chapter 179: Developing the Otherworld
"Hooray!"
"Long live the Kosmos cult, long live the earth!"
City of Water.
Inside the city is a scorched earth and a world of ruins, but outside the city is a hell of blood and fire.
"Why...... How could we lose so badly? ”
One of the knights, whose legs were broken by bullets from his electromagnetic rifle, fell to the ground, watched as the steel monsters in front of him stretched out their iron pipes in fury, and then funnily mowed the grass to harvest his companions piece by piece in flames.
Even if he was lucky enough to rush over, he was unwilling to fall under the opponent's various long-range strike forces.
It was the first time they had encountered such a battle mode, as if the other party was all magicians, a war of tens of thousands of magicians, or a magician who didn't care about magic backlash at all, and didn't care about the magic consumption mode...... "This kind of war, it's not fair......" The knight muttered this sentence, and suddenly felt lighter, but he was lifted up by a masked man dressed in a steel luster.
The black soldier put the knight on the multi-purpose chariot and said, "I've only used up one magazine, and the war is over, oh my God, these guys, you can't do it a little harder." ”
The king shook his head, stepped on the blood on the ground, and looked at the wailing wounded soldiers of the Terran race, and a wave of pride welled up in his heart.
"If it weren't for the Kosmos Cult, maybe when we were invaded by alien creatures, we would be the ones who wailed." Wang thought.
"Boom~!"
Thunder and lightning fell, and heavy rain fell.
In the battle of Watertown, the force of the Earth United Army completely shocked those lords, nobles, and even merchants with different hearts.
With the large-scale entry of the major groups sent by the Earth side into the Otherworld under the protection of the Kosmos Cult and the military, the entire Otherworld has entered a hot reform and development.
Empress Nina issued a decree to include merchants in the group of knights and nobles for the first time, and even promoted several wealthy merchants to become officials in charge of Yanjing's economy.
These wealthy merchants soon colluded with the merchants from the earth and began to live a happy life of making a fortune together.
Patches of mining were explored, and then re-planned according to quality and stock, although the methods of the Kosmos were much more gentle than those of the otherworldly nobles, there was no doubt that the grassroots clerks preferred to use the power of local lords and nobles and even local tyrants to deal with specific problems.
For example, in the case of a new mining area, the consortium representing the earth will hand over the funds to the local nobles, who will then intervene to either coerce or induce the entire village to move out.
As for the disobedient, for the nobles, this is impossible, and in the other world, the commoners who oppose the nobles can only be the dead.
This is true for the mining area, and the same is true for the farmland.
At the behest of the Empress and the Cult of Kosmos, the nobles did not dare to disobey, forcibly annexed many villages, and even forced many peasants to abandon their farming tools and go to towns and even big cities to become laborers in the mines and even many new factories that were being built.
If we use the words of the earth, these farmers will become a different profession because of this: workers, and workers are one of the important forces to change an era!
"Your Highness, please look." Sitting on a flying ship raised by the Kosmos, looking down on the plains and mountains below, an official from Earth beside the Empress Nina smiled and introduced her achievements to the Empress.
"Soon, this plain will become several large farms, where the soil is good and water is not scarce, and we plan to grow a lot of Holy Light wheat here, which will solve the food problem of at least half of the population."
"If this plan succeeds, won't Althea no longer be threatened with starvation?" A new duke behind Empress Nina pushed down his gold-rimmed glasses and couldn't help but interject.
"Yes." The Earth official nodded confidently and said, "Not only is there no hunger, but there will be a lot of remaining farmland that can be vacant and converted into pastures, forest farms, and so on. ”
"Rest assured, Great Empress, Grand Duke, we and you are basked in the glory of the God of Order, and we will do our best to help you build a good nation."
"A country that is extremely wonderful for us......" the official added to himself.
A month later...... "Brothers, hurry up and finish this section of the road, as long as this railway is repaired, the metal ore from Moore Province will be transported to Yanjing in a continuous stream, and your life will be better at that time." ”
The person in charge of supervising the work was a middle-aged Chinese man from Earth, and he was entrusted with this important task by virtue of his strict work, responsible for supervising the construction of this section of the railway by these workers from other worlds.
"Lord Lin, after the repair, can our wages increase?" A yellow-haired young man smiled and asked, "I have 5 silver coins for a month now, can I have 10 silver coins by then?" ”
"Haha, you kid!" Supervisor Lin showed a smile-looking smile and said, "10 silver coins? I tell you, once the railroad is repaired, a large number of merchants will be willing to come to your side to develop the mines, so that you can go to any miner for a miner's salary, at least one gold coin! ”
"One gold coin!" Many workers took a breath in unison and showed a burst of yearning: "How much meat can you buy, my lord, you didn't lie to us." ”
"Of course not!" The forest supervisor said: "Hurry up and work!" ”
"Yes, sir." When these people heard this, they hurriedly responded.
"Hey, Lao Lin, how are you doing over there." A voice came from Overseer Lin's headset.
"Captain, these guys are not qualified workers, alas, tired, but fortunately they are cheap enough."
"Hehe, but have you heard, the railway connecting Essia Yanjing to Ross Port has been built."
"What!" Lao Lin flipped through the map, carefully observed it, and said in a low voice: "I heard me right, this is a full 1,500 kilometers away, and it was less than 10 days before they proposed this plan, and it was actually built!" ”
"Hey, who made the Fox Consortium good luck that day! They actually explored high-quality magic crystal ore veins from the small island near Ross Harbor, and also found precious energy crystal ore, this discovery can be said to have immediately attracted the attention of the high-level of the Kosmos God Cult, don't you know, at that time, those interstellar battle cruisers, hundreds of them appeared at once, and even the sky was obscured. ”
"You're bragging again." Lao Lin said: "But I understand that those two ores are the most valuable resources of the other world, and it is no wonder that the Church of the God of Order chose to prioritize the development side." ”
"After repairing the railway, as long as it is transported to Ross Harbor by ship, it can be transported directly to Yanjing by the railway train and go back to Earth through the portal."
"Anyway, what's going on on this group of earth, Captain, you'll only go back once a month."
"Lao Lin, don't worry, the earth is good, that is, some young people on the other side of the fog capital are just a little dissatisfied with the habit of venting their surnames when they see the job opportunities being assigned to the more efficient Huaxia, but they don't want to think about it, the Kosmos Sect, how can their political axe be able to speak?"
"Moreover, I see that those Chosen ones are not very loyal to the political axe, and I doubt that the political axe still has the courage to question the distribution of the high-level of the Kosmos God Cult."
"Those who have the power live in it, this is the law of the Divine Cult." Lao Lin read some propaganda materials about the Kosmos Cult and said: "They won't let others starve to death and freeze to death, but they will never allow riots and disturb social order to happen, and at the same time, they want to get a better life?" Either strive to join the Divine Cult and work hard, or work harder and get rewards for your efforts under the order. ”
"This kind of world doesn't sound bad, but there are always people who want to get something for nothing, right?" The captain said.
"Yes." Lao Lin nodded but was helpless about it, and he didn't know, after the power of the Kosmos Cult really swelled to completely control the world, how would they solve the mess left over from this world?
"Hey, don't think about it, it's only right that we do what we need in front of us, and if we can't open next week, we're still going to go back."
"After all, the construction machine borrowed from the Kosmos Cult is not cheap at all."
"Well, well......" Suddenly, Lao Lin heard that the captain over there seemed to answer someone's call, and then, he heard the captain's serious tone: "Lao Lin, I just received an alarm, someone on our side is dissatisfied with our development of this world, and is trying to assassinate us humans from another world to them, you better be careful, don't leave the gun!" ”
"Assassination?" Lao Lin didn't expect that he would encounter such a problem, and involuntarily touched his waist.
"These masters of the other world are as beyond the imagination of ordinary people as the Chosen One, I ...... I'm afraid to comfort myself. Lao Lin muttered.
"I shouldn't be so unlucky, God of Order forbid, don't look for me for those assassins."
"Whoa......
In the jungle, several black shadows interspersed and quickly approached the old forest.
"Jump!" A black shadow shot blood light in his eyes, approached Lao Lin, and then drew the short sword in his hand, about to stab the earthling.
Lao Lin instinctively sensed the danger, but he was too far away from the invading enemy, he looked back and saw the enemy, but he didn't have time to make other moves, just when Lao Lin closed his eyes and thought he was dead.
The cold blade hadn't approached his throat for a long time, which made Lao Lin couldn't help but open his eyes.
"Baa ......"
There was no assassin in front of him, only a pure white sheep remained, squatting on the ground of the old forest aggrievedly, calling softly.
"Transfiguration!" The other two assassins in the jungle looked at each other: "Withdraw!" Transfiguration, it's a stunt that only a great magician can perform! We are no rivals. ”
"Want to run?" A girl in a red robe landed from the sky and unleashed a sluggish spell that slowed the assassin on his left.
The assassin on the right saw the enemy coming, but he had no will to fight, and only wanted to escape, but he didn't know that he had just jumped in the air when he was stopped by a swordsman who suddenly appeared out of the air, and the male swordsman cut off one of the assassin's arms with just a sword.
"Smack." The swordsman stepped on the ground and smiled at Lao Lin: "Fortunately, I finally caught up, otherwise the evaluation of this mission would have to be lowered." ”
"Hurry up and tie them up and take them away, Miss Ben is very short on time!" The red-robed magician knocked on the ground with his staff: "Alas, it's really unlucky, I will team up with you, this mission is completed, Miss Ben must be right away!" Get out of the team now! ”
The swordsman smiled, but he didn't mind the magician's complaints: "You've said this many times, but every time I'm the only one willing to team up with you to take on these thankless tasks." ”
"Isn't it, my tsundere cousin!"
"You ......" The magician snorted, glanced at Lao Lin with disdain, and turned to leave first.
The swordsman easily tied up the three assassins and took them away, but when he passed by Lao Lin, he said: "During this time, it is not very peaceful here, it is best for you to gather together and move, and it is best to follow the patrol schedule, it will be much safer." ”
"Thank you." Lao Lin came back from his fright and nodded in thanks.
The swordsman smiled, hit the ground in one step, and flew out.
Watching the pair of Chosen ones leave, Lao Lin sighed: "It seems that I have to support my son to play that online game, if that kid is not lucky to be drawn, no matter how you look at it, only playing that thing can have a better chance of being selected as the Chosen One." ”
"The future belongs to the Chosen One, and now, how can it not already belong to them?"
Lao Lin sighed at the same time.
In the face of the troubles of the other world, Bai Yunfei also formulated plans one by one, and issued relevant tasks in the Cult of Kosmos, so that the Chosen ones could start to take action to settle these troubles one by one.
And this pair of Chosen One is one of the Chosen One who carries out these plans.
"Master, according to intelligence analysis, this indigenous counterattack is mainly supported by those barbarian tyrants located in the mountains, who are worried that our development will affect their rule over their subordinates, so they collude with the remnants of the rebels defeated by us to harass us together."
After speaking, Shabel looked at Bai Yunfei and waited for Bai Yunfei's order.
"I see, you go down." Bai Yunfei said.
"Master, don't I have to act? According to the analysis, if I take the action, I can save at least 50% of the time of the owner. Sabel asked, puzzled.
"No need." Bai Yunfei leaned back in his chair, looked at the holographic map on the wall in the distance, and said softly: "The director of our Divine Purity Institute has turned into the goddess of revenge and gone to purify those heretics who disrupt the order. ”
"We just have to wait for the results." Bai Yunfei said in a low voice.
The barbarian king Shanyue, with 100,000 people, is known as being able to make all the people soldiers, living deep in the mountains, in the strongest period of the Esian Empire, their clan became the barbarian king, although the barbarian king did not obey the imperial decrees, and often connived at the mountain people to rob the merchants, but considering the cost of the road requisition, the empire has always pursued the idea of turning big things into small things to deal with.
This boosted the courage of the barbarian king, but fortunately, each generation of barbarian kings also has the knowledge of the outside world, knowing that relying on their own people, walking out of the mountains is the fate of being besieged, and angering such a behemoth as the empire, it will not be able to get cheap, so each generation has not overdone it, attracting a large army to conquest.
However, in this generation, it is impossible for the Shanyue Barbarian King to be indifferent no matter what.
Even he had heard of the prestige of the Kosmos Cult from the merchants, and the strength of the Earth Army.
However, the reforms and developments carried out in the land of Essia made the barbarian king Shanyue tremble when he saw it.
"This is development? This is simply to cut off the lives of our princes! The barbarian king would not allow his power over his tribe to be altered by the intervention of outsiders, so he thought of destroying those projects and carried them out.
But he didn't expect that this little action was not a secret at all for the Cult of Order with a tight intelligence network, and the speed of the Cult's revenge was far beyond his imagination!
When the barbarian king Shanyue learned the news of the assassin's disappearance in his stone palace, he was not too surprised, but shouted a little upset: "Go, find me 20 most beautiful virgins, I will vent tonight." ”
"Yes." The eunuch nodded and walked out with a straight face.
Although the conditions here are harsh, the people are much easier to rule, and these people have long regarded obedience to the barbarian king's orders as a matter of course, and do not feel that there is anything wrong with the barbarian king's violence against them.
Lifting the curtain and pushing open the stone door, the eunuch with more than a dozen guards suddenly opened his mouth in shock.
"Oh my God! What's going on? ”
The screams of the eunuchs made the barbarian king inside rush out in a panic with a sledgehammer and his subordinates: "What's the matter, is it the people of the Divine Sect who came to take revenge?" ”
"This!" When the barbarian king looked at it, he couldn't help but be shocked all of a sudden.
In front of them, the shacks that had belonged to the tribesmen had all been turned into ice sculptures, and the entire castle was covered with a thick layer of frost on all sides.
The entire barbarian region, under this midsummer, has actually ~ turned into a world of ice and snow!
The Ice and Snow Empress, with her long silver hair and pure white armor, looked at the Barbarian King with a chuckle: "Leader of the Barbarian Clan, when you were an enemy of our Divine Sect, did you ever think that this price would be the extinction of your Clan?" ”
"No...... No way! The barbarian king's legs trembled: "I...... My 100,000 people, how can I ...... How could it be all ...... by you?"
"Alas, all of a sudden there is no confidence in resistance, and such a person is worthy of calling himself king?" The Ice and Snow Empress snorted lightly, moved out in one step, and arrived in front of the Barbarian King, her body suddenly burst out with a cold and icy aura, and in just an instant, she turned this Barbarian King into a huge iceberg along with the entire castle!
"I am the Ice Empress! Servants of the God of Order, will you become my believers, or will you merge with your King with the snow and ice? ”
The Ice Empress turned around and absorbed all the ice power of the residential area, so that the frozen tribesmen woke up again, these tribesmen, feeling the divine power of the Ice Empress, and then seeing that the king who was in awe and fear was so stupidly frozen in the towering iceberg, one by one involuntarily knelt on the ground, just begging, the great Ice Empress, can forgive them!
"These people generally have low IQs, and the people's wisdom is not open! Indeed, they are all good sources of becoming believers! The Ice Empress looked at the kneeling crowd, but she was also secretly satisfied.
