From the perspective of the functional positioning of the role it plays in society.

Marsala belongs to the lowest type, which is produced from raw materials.

In a way, this colony is like an old-fashioned coal mining town in the Earth Age, where all kinds of non-compliant mining is rampant, and dust pollution makes it impossible to plant the already not very fertile land (the land in the most mined areas is relatively poor), and once the mine is hollowed out, the mining town begins to enter the countdown to disintegration and abandonment.

One level higher than a resource star like Marsala is the production star, the super factory plus sweatworkers. It's basically OEM, and capital will find a way to create this cheap labor.

Then there is the service star, and tourism, farms, and various services are the main pillar industries of this planet. Rich people have farms, villas, horse farms, islands, and all kinds of entertainment venues. It's a great place to go on vacation.

The top is the financial star, the business street of the new era, the financial street, the headquarters of many large companies are here, in the landmark office buildings, white-collar workers, gold-collar workers work 9 to 5, remote control their factories in the production of stars, and serve the business of stars. It is the political, political, and financial center of the human kingdom, and the smell of power is in the air.

The hierarchy is clear and the order is orderly.

And from this point of view, Kane is a rule-breaker.

He brought the production technology to the resource star, and the social system at the small circulation level was also substituted into the resource star. And then make a deformed little society.

A population of 2 million, even in the age of the earth, is not much, and many second- and third-tier urban areas in the East have this number, not to mention those first-tier cities.

But after all, the times are different, and this is an era when you can build a building by one person as long as you master the operation technology that is not too difficult.

An SCV, using the relevant packaged parts, can create a workshop, a factory, or even a city like a figurine.

So the federal technology control is very strict. They would rather have backward technology and low production capacity than let them master advanced technology and gain greater autonomy.

Regulation, the federation believes that the long-term stability of society lies in regulation, the closer to the core, the more advanced the technology, and vice versa, which is well regulated, in the words of the founding family: "Even if they are all chaotic ministers and thieves, what can they be crazy?"

There is also a saying that goes like this: "Aren't you pursuing freedom, aren't you pursuing being close to nature? Go to the periphery of humanistic civilization, which is closest to nature and most conducive to your play of harmony between man and nature, and ecological harmony." And we call this kind of person the unfit who has been eliminated by modern society. ”

There are really many people who go to the outer planets to live, and there is an endless stream, just like in the age of the earth, there are always people who want to go to Qinghai-Tibet to seek the sublimation of the soul.

Of course, most people feel altitude sickness and sun exposure intensity.

These people have basically come back again. There are still a few people who can really live in poverty, and on the premise that there is no mental problem, those who have no experience cannot afford to pretend to be coarse tea and light meals, and spend most of the day on inefficient livelihoods.

So Marsala can't keep people, but whenever there is a help, people want to go to prosperous places. Except, of course, those who don't have much to look forward to the future.

On more than one occasion, Kane had heard someone say, "I've heard that you can earn more to eat in Tasanis than to work hard for a day in Marsala." ”

This reminded Kane of Qian Zhongshu's "The Siege". Asking for food in Tasanis is more than Marsala, but for the same piece of bread, Tasanis is 10 times the price of Marsala. Not to mention that there are many additional things.

Kane naturally doesn't talk to people about this, he can't say it.

He's just playing his game step by step.

He's like a clever pickpocket, and he has to squeeze some oil out of his hands.

Of course, he doesn't look down on ordinary finances, he squeezes people's creativity. This is how the great foundation and the myth of wealth come from.

Now his military factory produces weapons day and night, not only for self-sufficiency, but also for sale.

The CMC-550 power suit is the most advanced suit on the market.

It is equipped with advanced nuclear, biological and chemical three prevention systems, auditory reinforcement systems, and life emergency systems.

It is even possible to load a gravity generator, allowing the wearer to walk in gravity-free environments such as space platforms.

It is better than gravity boots in that the generator has an effect on the whole body, which can avoid the impact of weightlessness on human body functions.

As for the functions of infrared detection, terrain navigation, target alignment (with the ability to calculate the advance amount), and condition monitoring, they are integrated into the observation and sighting system.

There are also head-up displays, noise blockings, safety locks, voice-activated lighting systems, and other features on the latest models, as well as some external pendants.

These can be found in the CMC-550, and the Northern Democratic Federation is now mass-producing this, arming a marine battalion, it only takes 2 hours, and it can be faster if the physical data of the battalion personnel is submitted in advance.

This business is very popular with the Democratic League, and even the federal garrison comes to play with the old for the new.

At that time, the garrison mainly used CMC-400, and even some CMC-300 were in operation. This is, of course, caused by the misappropriation of equipment purchase costs by drinking the blood of soldiers.

And now they need real combat power, these people are anxious, crying to the top, in the name of the normal needs forced by the situation, asking for military spending, and then giving a part of the filial piety to the leaders at all levels, cleaning up their old equipment and warehouses, they can basically make up enough for all the staff to change their clothes, so that the deficit is also made up, the hard power has been improved, and the official hat has been kept, why not?

Therefore, when the inspection team of the Federal Military Department came to Marsala to check the morale of the army, thinking that they could grab some people's pigtails and take the opportunity to control them, they found that the garrison commanders here were as clean as white lotuses, and the armament situation was surprisingly good.

Later, after a secret visit, I learned that the problem turned out to be the Northern Democratic Federation.

Specifically, investigating the Democratic Alliance, the root cause is the Graybeard mercenary.

And Graybeard has made a lot of war money in recent months.

But what they mean is to make money in a good way, earn money and invest in civil technology, and then make money in technology. What's even worse is that they replace official functions, make money that only the government can earn, and they are also very black!

It's a very set, even so, those untouchables still obediently pay the bill!

The military's eyes were red. Especially after a small calculation, the profits that can be generated by the productivity of the Northern Democratic Federation are enough to feed a medium-sized space fleet.

Then the strip flew.

"Where did you get these technologies? This is all forbidden to be sold, or even forbidden to be used by the people, accept the investigation honestly, and if you don't explain the problem clearly, you won't be confused. ”

Where would Kane take this kind of bluffing in his eyes, he didn't talk to the negotiator, thinking that the other party was just a microphone and couldn't make decisions, and he was tired. He made a direct video call with the other party's power figures.

"Seeing fat is like biting, do you have that good mouth? If you really had that ability, you would have leveled the dead in Hong Kong a long time ago. I'm from the port of the dead, and I can't be defeated by my mouth, so you have to use a sword. But I have to warn you, don't say it's losing, it's a big loss, at this juncture, you have to blame the class!

It's true that he can't afford to make a wave, Graybeard is not the kind of person who pretends to be strong, shouts louder, and will obediently tie his hands and arrest him, or he is lucky, thinking that if he obeys, he will have a way to live. These people are not like the people, who have an instinctive fear of the government, these people are outlaws who can be ruthless even if they are concerned. Fight with them and you'll find yourself forever porcelain and they're crockpots.

However, if you don't weigh it, this one can't get off.

What's more, the uncles from the Capital Star are also some unbelieving characters, and they think that the red and blue confrontations they usually watch are also very good, very professional and tough.

These stinky fish and shrimp, after a few battles, feel that they are professional, and we can tell them with practical actions that they are still too far behind in terms of tactical level. ”

So a tactical team, in a midnight raid, used an external jet device to cross the outer protective net of Fort Sanctuary, and then encountered the special forces of the Northern Democratic League, the butcher company, whose power armor was true red and used the iconic weapon - the chainsaw sword.

This is the standard Astarte monk or space marines in Warhammer 40k, and it is full of fierceness and cruelty.

And the creatures with the green-skinned gene are very fond of this weapon, and this enthusiasm makes them almost self-taught in the use of the chainsaw sword.

When the military subjects from Tasanis meet the wild blood butchers, their fate is already doomed.

The mutilated bodies of all the members of the tactical team were returned early in the morning with the message: "Don't send next time, they scream like!"

Rumors that Graybeard is a muscular guy are now rampant.

Mike Liberty paid special attention to this, and it is true that the members of Graybeard are all super muscular tough guys.

They themselves are not shy about admitting that they have been using drugs in conjunction with the so-called hierarchical development. The second time, the third time, the fourth time!

In the eyes of these guys, every time it means more awesome.

From a certain point of view, this is not wrong, because before using the drug, you must absorb all the previous drug components, otherwise you will die of an overdose.

And the only way to absorb the drug is to exercise like crazy, in their own vivid words: every new cell takes away a piece of medicine, so accelerating metabolism and accelerating muscle growth is the right way.

As far as Mike Liberty knows, this was not the case with Greybeard in the past.

Anyway, mercenaries actually have no upward motivation, and even if they do, they are distorted, such as the pursuit of more money and the pursuit of excitement.

The lives of mercenaries are often hovering between life and death and erosion, killing and, and then adding abuse, which is their portrayal.

But the current Greybeard is not like this, giving people the feeling that they have a very sacred and noble goal, so that they temper themselves like ascetics in addition to fighting.

And when asked, they will bared their teeth and say, "Don't you think that the greatest blessing in life is to die in a battle that allows you to play to your heart's content?"

Anyone who knows the world of Warhammer will exclaim, "Isn't this aaagh!?"

Liberty obviously didn't know, and it was impossible for any of the indigenous creatures of the SC universe to understand, but that didn't prevent him from shuddering, not for the cruel ideals of these guys, but for their sincerity.

Liberty knew that they were real, and felt from the bottom of his heart that dying in a battle that could be used to his full strength was the highest honor and pursuit.

"This is even more terrifying than the resocialization of the nerve center, which has completely violated the instinct of living creatures, but lives for death. What made them such terrifying beings?"

Once doubts are born, they will be like a feather that is constantly itching, urging people to explore and seek knowledge.

Gradually, Liberty discovered that all graybeard people were abnormal, and this abnormality had a certain similarity with the brain-dead optimism caused by the socialization and reconstruction of the nerve center, but the specific manifestations were different.

Graybeard's people are not brain-dead optimism, but blind progress.

They don't seem to know that there is such a thing as discouragement in this world, they are always full of motivation and confidence, and they often say, "Our boss said." ”

Their boss, who is their God, says everything right and never wrong, and they do what they say.

In his later memoirs, Liberty wrote: "From that moment on, I told myself that I had found a devil. Then I thought of what that Samael had said, saying that he had left a goodie bag in the Koplu Star Zone. Many people naturally thought that this gift bag was left after Samael's public speech, but if you think about it, it is entirely possible that it was left beforehand. I think Kane Zhao, that's the package. ”

During the years that Liberty and Kane spent in Marsala, perhaps because of the relationship of 'only being in this mountain', he did not think much about Kane's possible evil side.

Liberty's main idea at this time was: don't listen to what he says, watch what he does.

From this point of view, Kane and the Greybeard he led were Marsala's well-deserved leaders of the people.
