Chapter 348: The Three Musketeers of the New Era
Frank and Alva founded the Freedom and Mutual Aid Society in the city of Bictor, the Kingdom of Holima, which was originally a secret society that brought together all the ordinary people in the city who were exploited and could not survive, and helped each other find a way out.
Ordinary workers, paupers, craftsmen, petty traders, everyone in the Free Mutual Society, and later even some like-minded transcendents, most of them were wizard apprentices, supernatural blood knights, and even undead and lichs who were forced to survive by the major churches.
Frank became a wizard, and after his super high consciousness began to extract essentia from the magic net, his spiritual power grew rapidly, and even directly expanded to the third level within a few years, and then it took more than ten years to directly rush into the fourth level.
In addition to Alva, there is also a half-orc Wilbert who has accepted a transcendent bloodline knight, most of the transcendent bloodline knights are descendants of bloodline wizards, but even if they can't practice witchcraft, they can also advance the bloodline to gain powerful power, and some of the transcendent bloodline knights with a strong bloodline have combat effectiveness far beyond the same level.
The three of them became the leaders of the Freedom and Mutual Aid Society, and they began to try various ways to change the status quo, the first way they thought of was to take control of a city, and then implement their systems and ideals within that city.
They spent nearly a decade, little by little, through the Free Mutual Aid Association, slowly taking control of a remote mountain country in the Ekeri region, and implementing their policies according to their ideas, a mini-country with only one city and a few towns, not in the mountains bordering the exotic land and the Black Forest.
They expelled the few clergy in the original city, and began to try to let ordinary people build a perfect society, but then their ideals were shattered, this is not a problem of the system, relying solely on ordinary people, the city they built will only be a backward ancient city, completely out of touch with this era of steam and machinery.
Trade, economy, agriculture, urban construction, and civilization have all regressed wildly, and cities have turned into darkness at night, with no steam locomotives, no airships, and even ordinary handicraft workshops and workshops closing their doors.
Even because there was no garrison mage tower and the sacrifice of the goddess of harvest to help them cultivate crops, the originally crazy swelling population made them unable to rely on the small territory and arable land of Ekri to feed themselves, and their life was even more miserable than the exploitation of the transcendents, and many people began to flee and leave.
And once a large number of clergy and transcendents are integrated into it, regardless of whether the clergy and transcendents maintain good intentions towards ordinary people, ordinary people will gradually become their vassals, because everything they depend on the transcendents, they are dispensable to the transcendents, and they need the power of the transcendents.
Whether it is agriculture, travel, life, or the system of extraordinary power, it has penetrated into all aspects of this world, and without extraordinary power, it is impossible to integrate into this world.
"Ordinary people rely on the transcendent system to survive, they can't generate value, with manual power alone, they can't compare with the transcendental, the form of the alchemy industry workshop, the machine has even gradually replaced most of the labor, agriculture is also developing rapidly, I heard that the mage kingdom, as long as you have a mage tower, you can control the agricultural harvest within a radius of dozens of miles." Frank took his glasses off and threw them on the table.
Alva's face looked a little solemn: "Not only that, but the military strength of all countries also depends on all transcendentals, and the force of ordinary people has become dispensable, and there are ......"
Frank nodded: "Needless to say, I know it all!" ”
"This is not a civilization that belongs to human beings, but a civilization that belongs to gods and transcendentals, ordinary people can't integrate into it at all, if the system of this world is a huge machine, ordinary humans are now a little reluctant to even become a gear, the gear of this era is the apprentice of the transcendental, and with the advancement of the times, ordinary humans will be gradually abandoned."
Frank took a deep breath, as if seeing a futuristic scene of this world: "What a terrible future this is. ”
Sitting in the secret conference room of the Ekri Freedom and Mutual Aid Society, the three of them looked depressed, and in the meeting just now, several more people announced their withdrawal from their Free Mutual Aid Association, and the failure of the experiment in the Ekri Society made them suffer a blow and see the truth of this world more clearly.
At this time, the half-orc Wilbert raised his head and said, some short and fat pleasing figures had a serious expression, which seemed particularly incongruous: "If we can, let ordinary people also be able to use alchemy props, be able to use alchemy props, and do all kinds of things that only transcendent apprentices can do at present, then, they will be able to integrate into this era." ”
"Moreover, think about it, if the ordinary people who occupy 99% of the population of this continent are allowed to become the cogs of this transcendent era, pushing the world forward, and incorporating all their wisdom and strength into this transcendent era, then what kind of powerful impetus will be generated to promote the development of civilization in this world."
Wilbert's words instantly made Frank and Alva raise their heads suddenly, and Alva immediately said: "How is this possible, let ordinary people use alchemy props, and they don't have spiritual power." ”
In addition to those ordinary alchemy products, for alchemy props, every transcendent person is like a battery, which needs the power of their spiritual power to urge alchemy props to exert extraordinary power, this world is as large as steam locomotives, airships, airships, wizard towers, and as small as various small magic newspapers, printing presses, witchcraft pistols, and various wizards' daily utensils, all of which require spiritual power to be able to urge.
That's why it is said that the bottom and most basic cogs of this transcendent civilization are every transcendent apprentice, not ordinary human beings.
Frank stood up all of a sudden at this moment, his eyes shining: "It's possible, as long as we are willing to do it and work hard, there will be nothing that can't be done." ”

"These three musketeers haven't changed at all!"
Lu Zhiyu is sitting in the floating city at the moment, and the original Eva's "TV" is now occupied by Lu Zhiyu, and what is playing on the screen is the scene of Frank's meeting with the three.
Eva occasionally walked behind Lu Zhiyu, constantly walking around, making noises, Lu Zhiyu knew Eva's careful thoughts, and stood up with a smile: "Okay, let it be given to you, don't occupy your afternoon leisure time." ”
Eva looked at the three people on the screen: "Is there anything worth paying attention to these three people?" A third-level alchemist, a fourth-level wizard, and a transcendent knight, it doesn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary, there are very few people who pay such attention to you, even if it is some gods, you don't pay attention to them, and these three people, I feel ....... ”
Lu Zhiyu looked at Eva and reminded, "Look at the appearance of the three of them, do they feel a little familiar?" ”
Eva took a closer look and immediately picked up some of the sights from her memory, although there were some differences, but Eva immediately recognized them and covered her mouth.
"Is that them?"
"The three of them, no matter what era they are placed in, will be the ones who shine the most."
