Chapter 704: Just Get Used to It
In the crystal guide screen, the two hosts of "Dream Times" opened the chatterbox, and they could see obvious emotion and pride on their faces, talking eloquently. (3) ≠ eight (3) ≠ eight (3) ≠ reading (3) ≠ book, .↗.o●
"Dear people, our common home, the "Dream Country" is currently in a period of rapid development, and everyone in front of the screen should be well aware of this. ”
"I think you all remember the memories of more than four months ago very clearly, right? Back then, the land under our feet was still just a barren wasteland, the land resources were extremely scarce, the soil lacked vitality, the water source was difficult to find for thousands of miles, the vast majority of it was just a barren desert Gobi, and there were even terrifying sandstorms that could easily kill countless people at every turn! The rare oasis area was still a treacherous place full of dangerous beasts and man-eating plants. Moreover, there are invisible and strange forces in the environment that can confuse the mind, and it is easy for even the most seasoned traveler to get lost in such a place. ”
"More than four months ago, this land was nicknamed 'barren land' and 'devil's land' in the world, and no force was willing to send its people to live in this kind of ghost place, even the brutal bandits of the wilderness and the transcendents with great power basically did not want to approach this place......"
"As everyone knows, this treacherous land has existed for nearly a thousand years, and it is the legacy of a great war a thousand years ago. The wounds of the war on this land are so great that even after all these years, nature has not been able to heal it. Even the Dragon Empire, which owns this land, is helpless against it, and can only take care of this place itself, and this laissez-faire will last for thousands of years......"
"In the past, we didn't even know if this land would ever be reborn......! It's time for change!"
"More than four months ago, the great 'Dream Lord' was born, and after forming an alliance with the 'Dragon God', His Majesty the 'Dream Lord', who could have chosen other richer places to establish the earthly kingdom, took pity on the world, and incorporated this wasteland that even the empire did not want to deal with into his territory, and sprinkled his divine grace on this land full of despair, and finally, gave hope to this wasteland again!"
"We are all believers and people of the crown, and under the guidance of the crown, we have come to this wasteland to establish our dream kingdom. Originally, because of the treacherous conditions of this land, most of the other people in the world questioned the behavior of His Majesty and me, but now, they have to shut up!"
"Four months ago, no one would have imagined that there would be a country where all the low-level civilians in the country would be able to enjoy complete knowledge and education, the most thoughtful and comprehensive medical care, and the convenient transportation that would take them to another city dozens of kilometers away in less than half an hour...... The first group of compatriots who joined the kingdom must have a very clear idea of the standard of living before joining the kingdom, right? Compared with the life at that time, everything we enjoy in the kingdom at this moment is simply like being in the kingdom of God!"
"Oh, forgive me, I'm afraid it's not true, after all, our kingdom has the "Dream World" divine kingdom created under the crown of the 'Dream Lord', and compared to others, all imaginable beautiful experiences in the kingdom of God can be enjoyed by us only by paying a small amount of "credit". ”
"In short, we are able to enjoy all this thanks to the great crown and the grace bestowed by the kingdom, which is a fact that should be taken to heart......
When the guests in the café heard this, most of them smiled approvingly, nodded silently, and their eyes showed pride, gratitude, and reverence, and some of them held their hands silently and performed a prayer ceremony in their hearts for the crown of their reverence and faith.
Only the four people at a table in the corner of the window in the middle of nowhere, reacted markedly differently from most of the guests in the hall.
It was four young men about twenty to thirty years old, although they were sitting relaxed, but their waists were subconsciously standing as if they had tied a ruler, and there was a cold light in their eyes, and although the aura on their bodies was very calm, they could vaguely glimpse a trace of sharp and cold temperament.
Having this quality means that they are all highly trained figures, for example, elite soldiers and non-commissioned officers in the army.
“...... Not again. One of the young men looked at the display screen on the top of the café counter, and his face showed a little helplessness: "Although I have to admit that more than half of what they say is true, do you need to emphasize it in the program from time to time?
As he spoke, the young man turned his head and saw through the excellent quality transparent glass wall on the outside of the café that saw the large display screens hanging at the intersection of the street outside, which were several meters in size, and saw that the same "Dream Times" program was also playing on those large displays.
“...... This is supposed to be showing off, right? Obviously they can put it on their own "Dream World" platform, but they are released in the most conspicuous public places in the city every time, I wonder if this is a disturbance to the people? Or is this actually used to show off to outsiders like us?!"
Obviously, this is just a means used by the officials of the fantasy country to exert xǐ nǎo propaganda on the displaced people, to increase their reputation and attraction to foreign immigrants. The other young man pursed his lips and said something that sounded a little disdainful, but his voice was not loud, and he even deliberately lowered the volume.
The rest of the table was not surprised by this, because they were also not very loud.
After all, the guys who dared to make nonsense on such occasions in the past and openly contradict the Dream Country have already told the latecomers with their own personal experience that even if they are dissatisfied with the propaganda of the Dream Country at this time, it is more appropriate to be a spectator quietly.
Otherwise, it may cause public outrage.
In oral debate, they can't argue with the people of the fantasy country, and the loyalty of the people in this country to their country is unusually high, and the opponent can spray a mouthful of spit in the crowd so that they can't talk back.
The point is, they don't have the confidence to refute most of the arguments that the other side says.
You can't win with your mouth, and you can't even ask for benefits with your hands. Even high-level transcendents who have mastered the strength far beyond the common people do not dare to openly make trouble in the cities of the Dream Country. There have been several unlucky eggs who have become bloody lessons from the past.
"Let's shut down, anyway, we're just stopping by to see what new things have happened in this country recently, just in terms of collecting intelligence, this "Dream Times" program still has a lot of real ......" Another young man shook his head, but halfway through speaking, he couldn't help but become a little depressed: "Tsk, I heard that colleagues from the Ministry of Intelligence have planted it several times, and the monitoring and prevention of this country is inevitably too strong! If it weren't for the way, why would we sit here and watch their propaganda programs honestly!" ”
"Compared to these, I think this kind of public display that can play pictures and sounds is very valuable in itself, especially when used for public opinion propaganda, which is much easier to use than newspapers and bulletin paper. Since we are in an alliance with each other, the domestic technical bureaus and research institutes should purchase some instrument samples from them for study, right?"
"I don't need you to say this, I must have tried it, I know a friend in the technical bureau, but I know some news. ”
"Oh, so how did it turn out?"
"I heard no. The other party's display instrument needs to use that kind of core crystallization as the most critical core, which is used to transmit signals and quickly process image information...... It's okay to say in terms of image processing, but the signal transmission, anyway, the technical bureau can't do it on a large scale like this country for the time being. The results should be the same on the side of the major research institutes, otherwise the group of researchers would have jumped out and announced the collection of reputation news. ”
"Why can't it be copied? I've also been to the Technology Bureau, don't they already have a similar spiritual guide device?"
"Huh...... Do you think those iron lumps are easy to make? Aside from the technical cost, the cost of materials alone is a very high figure, and my friend said that one will cost at least nearly 1,000 gold coins! Do you think that such an expensive thing can now be popularized for civilian use?"
"Hey, that's nearly a thousand gold coins?!, that's worth the bonus for several of my missions...... Those guys from the Tech Bureau are really rich. ”
"Don't you think this country is richer? I don't know how they made it, but it's not cheaper, but the other party has installed this thing directly on the streets and intersections of all towns and public stores, and I have seen more than three or four hundred of them in this Chixuan City alone, and God knows how many of these things they have built in total!"
"It's certain that there is money, and don't forget what they sell...... Hemp, the most ordinary mortal-level elf adult, only charges credit coins equivalent to a few silver coins for the internal citizens, and I heard that those who have citizen authority can also reduce the price to at least six percent off...... But they dare to ask for at least a dozen gold coins! Why don't they grab it?"
"To be honest, there's nothing to blame for this, the market price of the adult mortal-level elves outside was even higher than this number before. ”
"I've heard that the elven markets of other countries are about to be crushed by the merchants of this country. ”
"There's no way, they have a unique way to tame wild elves very easily, and of course they dare to sell them cheaper at a low cost, so as to be more competitive in the market...... In other words, this country is so profitable, and it dares to run the peer market so recklessly, if it weren't for its strong strength, it would have been destroyed by others a long time ago. ”
The three young men exchanged ideas with each other, and the topic gradually deviated from the original theme.
"That's enough, on this occasion, it's not for you to talk about this kind of thing, be quiet. The last of the four, a man of about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, who looked older, spoke in a cold tone, and his face was very calm as he stared at the program on the display screen at the counter, his eyes deep and dark like a blade hidden in a sheath.
"Major, do we really want to ask for help from the Dream Realm on this mission?"
"No way, according to the information provided by the Ministry of Intelligence, the target is lurking in this city. This place does not allow outsiders to use force in the city without authorization, and you must all know how closely their official forces supervise it. In order to ensure that the operation goes smoothly, it is necessary for us to enlist their cooperation. That's why I'm asking you all to be more restrained, I don't want to have to fight with the diplomats of the Dream Realm again. Greer glanced at the subordinate who asked him, explained coldly, and then said no more.
Hearing this, the other three opened their mouths, but none of them could refute Major Greer's words.
After all, they also knew that their own patriarch's words were very reasonable, but the unwillingness in their hearts was difficult to calm.
Once upon a time, as the overlord of the Western Continent and members of the special institutions under the command of the Dragon Empire, although they could not be called unscrupulous when they went outside to carry out tasks, other national forces basically had to sell them some face.
However, in just a few months, such neighbors as Dream Country have emerged.
The emerging power of the Dream Country, if you look at the territory or population resources, is less than one-tenth of the empire's small country.
As warriors of the Empire, Greer and his men had previously been faced with duty assignments, and when they visited a small country of this size, they basically had a sense of psychological superiority that originated from a large country.
However, this set of superior psychology does not apply to the dream country. Although the territory and population of the people are small, but in terms of strength, they can not be evaluated in the name of 'small countries' at all, and the terrifying number of elven beast legions at the disposal of the kingdom and the military power directly built by the transcendent ones that are increasing rapidly every moment are enough for the empire to pay attention to as well.
Not to mention that behind the scenes of this realm, there is the support of the mysterious 'Dream Lord' who even the dragon clan specially sent envoys to take the initiative to establish cooperation, and there are also several legendary realm masters under his command who are responsible for the mainstay position.
However, when they thought of those legendary realm masters in the Dream Realm, Greer's three subordinates couldn't help but be a little angry—many of those guys were originally members of the empire, but they were dug up by outsiders and betrayed!
This is very infuriating, although they also admit that the conditions given by the Dream Nation are indeed very impressive, but each of those betrayed guys would have been in a high position in the Empire.
Although the Emperor of the Empire issued a deportation of these betrayers, Greer's three subordinates felt that His Majesty the Emperor was really lenient. Otherwise, those traitors should have already been sanctioned by the masters of the Sect Elder's Court.
And the official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Dream Country that they are going to meet next is the one who defected at the beginning, and the two sides have met in the past because of their positions. As long as they think of the scene of meeting again after the transformation of this relationship, several people feel very uncomfortable.
While Greer was talking, the two hosts on the public crystallized display finally got to the point where they cared.
"According to the latest news, the Ministry of Technology Development under the command of the state has a new achievement a while ago, which can greatly strengthen the ...... of the civilian economy"
Sure enough, here it is again...... Several people listened to the host's words, and their hearts fluctuated slightly, but they quickly regained their calm.
The technology development department of Dream Country is very famous even in the outside world, not because of anything else, just because this department should be an important confidential organization, but it likes to make a big news every once in a while, and since the establishment of "Dream Times", it has repeatedly brushed its presence on the program.
Every time it is mentioned, there is basically a significant new technological achievement announced, and most of them are things that are of great benefit to the civilian industry.
For example, it has now become the first choice for the inhabitants of the country, and it is a public automated vehicle called "Cruise Car" that can run on the ground and fly for a short time when necessary.
The public is almost accustomed to hearing the existence of the Technology Development Department from every issue of "Dream Times".
