The world is chaotic enough, and the cake is so big, the distributable benefits have basically been divided, and whichever force wants more benefits can only lift the bloody butcher's knife and snatch it from the hands of others.

The Northern Expedition is the best example of this, and whatever its true purpose, at least one thing is certain, the Radiance of the Republic needs food, and the production centers of the North, or it will lead to a slow death.

What should I do if I don't have enough food? Then you can only kill, you can only rob, you can only start a war to go north, and take down the territory belonging to the northern rebels.

In such a situation, the forces of all parties will never want to see the emergence of a regional hegemon again, let alone that this hidden hegemon has a strategic force capable of subverting the world.

Manipulating the beast, a term used in the Age of Honkai, is enough to crush any known weapon.

At this moment, the central theme of the Far North talks changed, and no one cared about the rebels in the North and the Glory of the Republic anymore, and no longer limited their attention to the differences between the North and the South, and all attention was turned to one place, that is, the method of manipulating the beast.

Under the gaze of the scorching gaze, Jiang Zong stood still, and said indifferently before someone took the lead in speaking: "We have such a device, called the Keystone, which can prevent the fierce beast from attacking the soldiers, civilians, and the city, and can also manipulate the fierce beast to a certain extent. ”

Although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, when the sect confessed, there were still a lot of waves on the scene, and the one whose face changed the most was Agronso.

Agroso had also closely followed the Northern Expedition and learned from secret reports that the rebel cities in the north did not have a wall of life.

Agronso was already a little puzzled, although the Wall of Life policy was a way he came up with to contain the radiance of the Republic, but in fact it was also a strategy to deal with the onslaught of the beast, he imprisoned the people of the Republic and preserved their most basic right to live.

But the Northern rebels didn't get the aid of the Wall of Life project, and they didn't build similar high wall defenses, so why weren't their cities destroyed by beasts?

Now it seems that there is an answer to this question.

Instead of looking at the general, Agroso said in a condescending tone, "For the sake of the fate of all mankind, you should make this method public. ”

"I refuse." In the face of Agronso's commanding tone, Jiang Zong was not afraid at all, and said very simply, "This is the foundation of our life, since it is for all mankind, why doesn't the commander-in-chief announce the Valkyrie troops, the monarch-class main battle tank, the Titan series of tanks, and the manufacturing method of the Wall of Life?" ”

Seeing a trace of anger flashing in Agrono's eyes, he exerted his strength as a representative of the Inquisition Council: "Since it is mentioned to settle down, now, on behalf of the Inquisition Council, I invite the Federal Heavy Industry Corps to promise you that as long as you are willing to submit the method of manipulating the beast, we will permanently protect the Northern Revolutionary Army, including but not limited to sending Apocalypse-level Inquisitors led by Ophelia to station." ”

In the face of such a huge temptation, the desire for profit is already ready to move, and it is not even hidden.

Leng Kite naturally would not be silent at this juncture, she said meaningfully: "Jiangzong, unifying the republic is your dream for the rest of your life, and the glory of the republic and you may have differences in beliefs, but after all, blood is thicker than water, and you should know very well who this kind of thing should be shared with." ”

Nero, who warned of silence, said, "The Lord will thank you if the world will be transcended by your good intentions." ”

"Yes! Father! With so many suffering compatriots waiting for us to be rescued, how can we use the 'keystone' for our own use? The eldest husband was born in troubled times, and he should have the world in his heart, how can he be a selfish villain? Chu Linfeng grabbed Jiang Zong's shoulder tightly, and said with a burning look in his eyes, "There may be wars and differences in today's world, but in the end, the enemies are all fierce beasts, and our goals are the same, to eliminate evil and help the right, and to save the people!" We don't have to tell the secret of the Keystone to a certain person or organization, but to make it known to the whole world for everyone to share! In this way, peace and prosperity are just around the corner! ”

"Shut up! Hugh wants to discuss again! Jiang Zong was a little angry very rarely, his eyes clouded by the vicissitudes of time swept over everyone present, and said in a low voice, "History has proven several times that leaps are often accompanied by destruction, and the current world cannot withstand another reshuffle!" We haven't completely cracked the Keystone, and humanity isn't ready to accept its secrets! At least among you, I don't see a reason to hand over the Keystone! ”

Jiang Zong said this for nothing else, because he had already seen that whether it was Leng Kite or Agronso, they wanted this tool called "Keystone", which could manipulate the beast, for a very simple reason, that is, to take it for their own use!

These people don't care about the fate of the whole of humanity at all, in fact, no politician will care about the fate of mankind, that is all a matter for scientists, politicians have only one purpose, that is, to maximize their own national interests.

If the Keystone is really handed over to a certain force, the winner will never use it for the cause of the rise of mankind, but use it as a strategic deterrent, become a world hegemon, and crush the weak, just like the nuclear weapons of the old era.

It is even more undesirable to publish it directly to the world, not to mention that the keystone is unique, only one party can get it, even if it can be copied, even if everyone in the world has a piece, can it really destroy the fierce beast and restore the peaceful and prosperous world?

Impossible, if all forces really have a way to manipulate the beast, it is just a different form of war, from a war with humans as the main body to a war with the manipulation of the beast as the main body, and the world is still bleeding.

Jiang Zong has more than 100 years, the world is hot and cold, and human nature is cold and warm, these have long been seen through, and he knows that as long as it is not the last moment of life and death, the internal struggle of human beings will never stop.

This is also what the Shozong said before the time comes, if the keystone is handed over now, not only will it not bring peace, but it will lead to more killing.

Only when humanity faces a crisis that is enough to destroy at some point in the future, and then coalesces into one, is it the time when humanity is truly qualified to control the Keystone.

It can bring salvation or destruction.

Of course, Jiang Zong thinks so, and the leaders of other forces don't think so, and now that they have learned that the northern rebels have such a thing as a keystone, it is equivalent to a hungry wolf smelling the smell of meat, and no one will stop until they eat the meat.

The atmosphere also became more and more tense at this moment, Huo Anlisen quietly came to Nero's side, put his arm on her shoulder, and whenever there was any movement, he would use his body to protect the Pope.

The psychological change turned his cold gaze on Jiang Zong and Chu Linfeng, and unabashedly raised his chin, as long as he gave an order, he would capture these two people.

The same is true of Luo Wei, this young man who doesn't like to twist is even more direct, he didn't even pretend, and stood straight on the departure passage, blocking the escape path of Jiang Zong and Chu Linfeng.

At this moment, the two who are isolated and helpless are like prey in the wilderness targeted by hungry wolves, and there is no escape...
