Chapter 28: A Plan to Protect the World
Of course, Dieter Rhodes knew, the former butler of the mansion, and after nearly ten years of work, his father borrowed him a sum of money to start a business. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info Anyone who has done his best at home has not made any big mistakes, and when he wants to leave, his parents will basically arrange a good way out, which makes many people want to come to work in their own homes.
The young man was ecstatic in his heart, but he still stood in the middle of the hall with his head bowed as if he had admitted his mistake, and secretly raised his eyes in anticipation to look at his sister who was sitting on the side, and Roy was looking at him helplessly.
"It's okay, it's safer. The mother seemed to have secretly exchanged a few words with the father, and after a while she made up her mind: "That's it, let the child go out with Dieter for a walk, satisfy his curiosity and settle down." Xiao Luo, what do you think?"
"Thank you, Mother!"
"Don't be complacent, one yard to one yard, for a month before Dieter's caravan departed, you still let me stay at home and think about it, and I am not allowed to go anywhere!" β
"Hmm!"
......
Raven watched the two children leave, turned her head to look at her husband: "What's the matter, what's the worsening situation?"
Faqin's expression changed from feigned anger to worry, and another problem he faced was much more serious than the big deal of his son fighting with people, and if he didn't handle it well, it would be a real disaster: "The magic resurgence events are happening more and more frequently, and the interval between the break-ins of otherworldly creatures is getting shorter and shorter, and I can't investigate them one by one. β
"Oh?" the woman's expression did not change much: "What is there to be surprised about, by consulting the history of literature, we have long known that we are neither the first nor the last outsiders to break into this world. We just happened to bump into it at its most stable and safe stage, and we were confused by appearances...... Now that things are coming, let's not take chances and prepare for this long and arduous guard. β
Faqin sighed: "That's all, I'm a little curious, since historical records record that every time magic returns, a large number of otherworldly creatures will enter, but why hasn't this world been destroyed yet?"
"When you get the news, you're going to deal with the most vicious and dangerous intruders, but not all visitors from the other world are. Even without our presence, those creatures that are too chaotic will eventually be killed by the powerhouses of this world, and it can only be the difference between slight and heavy losses whether you shoot or not. And a force like the Burning Legion dedicated to destroying the world, I'm afraid the whole universe can't find a few. Raven leaned back in her chair: "I have an idea - the species that advanced and created civilization will inevitably block the evolution of other life, and it doesn't make sense that all kinds of intelligent life in this world are native." Most likely, the ancestors of most of the world's intelligent life, and perhaps all of them, were not indigenous like we are. If we define 'destruction' as a drastic change in the ecological environment, this world may have been destroyed several times, and it was a visitor from another world who changed it to what it is now. Sooner or later it may be destroyed again, but since it is not yet, it is our duty to prevent it from happening and keep it in a fit state for our survival. β
Faqin nodded, showing a helpless look: "Am I not doing it, according to the laws recorded, it is only the early stage of the return of magic power, as the tide of magic power comes in turn, this world will become more and more unstable, more turbulent and chaotic, we must take measures." β
"Measures. Ruiwen glanced at him suspiciously, and said angrily: "What are you selling with me, just say what you have in mind." β
"Two ideas, one is: to establish a cellular early warning and teleportation circle all over the planet, and once the Burning Legion steps in, it will immediately send elite troops and mage regiments to block the door. The second is to establish a super-large-scale spatial stabilization and anti-teleportation magic facility in a place where the world septum is weak, seal the gap where the Burning Legion's large forces may enter, and solve the problem at the source. Which one do you think?"
"The second option is obviously safer, I've broken into the Burning Legion stronghold, and I've seen the tip of the iceberg of their strength. If there is a war of attrition, a hundred such worlds will not be able to fight the endless demons in the void. The enemy's living force is endless, while the population and reproduction rate of this world are limited. The woman didn't need much thought to come to her conclusion, and asked with concern: "Have you calculated how much work and resources are required for each of the two options?" β
"In the former plan, it is difficult to say the number of teleportation arrays needed, if it is for insurance, the more the better, the more the number, the wider the distribution, the faster the world's defense forces will be put into the battlefield, and it is conservatively estimated that thousands of them will be needed. The latter method of sealing the source only needs one to stabilize the space within a radius of hundreds or thousands of miles - and the Burning Legion will inevitably invade a place where the space is weak and the energy is dense and abundant enough, and there are not many places that meet these conditions, and only a few hundred or even fewer such facilities can ensure the safety of this world. The man paused for a moment and said with a little uneasiness: "Although the number is very small, the workload of a single project is hundreds of times larger, and the resources required are more and more expensive, especially the places that meet the conditions are all sparsely populated and unlivable. β
"I guess demons living in the void don't like water, think about land first, but land alone is already so exaggerated...... It seems that protecting the world is really much more troublesome than saving the world. The woman frowned, most of her mind was on family chores and children, and rarely thought about them, and the data that her husband told her far exceeded her mental expectations: "Tell me the result, is the manpower and resources of this world enough to accomplish any of the plans you say?" β
"It sounds scary, but if you communicate well with the real power of the various intelligent races, there is enough manpower, and you can't take out so many resources at once, but after all, there are still a lot to be mined, just increase the production, it's just ...... I don't know if the time will come in time. The Duke said slowly: "I am inclined to the latter option, instead of fighting with the demons for thousands of years and then shedding the last drop of blood and then admitting defeat, it is better not to fight this war from the beginning, this planet is much smaller than Azeroth, and there are no planetary spirits and many strong people who are comparable to us, and we cannot blindly learn from their ways of coping." β
"Well, since you have a plan, then implement it. What do you want me to do, settle accounts for you? I'm a liberal arts student, but I'm not good at this. β
"Stabilizing the space, in principle, is close to the reverse operation of teleportation magic, and the start of facility construction will cause great disturbance to the space, and it is difficult to get on the right track safely and stably without a strong enough mage to sit and watch. The slightest carelessness opens the door for the Burning Legion...... And the most powerful mage in this world is none other than you, and it's a pity that I can't let you accompany your child on a trip...... At this time, why are you still letting him out and running around?"
"What do you want to do and insist that children can help? Although they have extraordinary genes, they can't replicate their experiences, and they are not destined to become as strong as you and me. Raven looked at the door of the house in a daze, and said with some melancholy: "Maybe one day, Rod and Roy will be able to take on the responsibility of protecting the world with us, this burden is so heavy - Faqin, what were you doing when you were fifteen or sixteen years old?"
The Duke was a little surprised, but replied truthfully: "When I was fifteen or sixteen years old, I was in high school, I went to class every day, went home to play on my mobile phone and watched TV, and secretly went to play games on the Internet with my friends on weekends...... I have a pretty good brain, and it didn't take much effort to keep up with the grades of those good kids. β
"And boasting. As for me, my parents are considered to be the elite of society, so my extracurricular activities are more 'high', but they still give me a lot of space...... I didn't bother to explain in detail, but I just wanted to say - you and I are both comfortable at our age, why do our children have to carry such a burden when they are born, and is it reasonable for them to protect a world that they don't even know about?" Although the body does not age, the young heart will only have one time, and the good times that have been lived up to are difficult to recover, and I don't want them to leave regrets. β???
"You're here again, all this sensational, stuff...... Sometimes, I really suspect that Rod's naΓ―ve thoughts are inherited from you. Faqin disagreed, shrugging: "But what can I do, I have to complain, and then respect my wife's idea." After all, you 'born a child born by ability', you can spoil as much as you want. β
Hearing her husband tease herself with the angry things she had said, Raven glanced at him with some shame and made arrangements: "Then don't talk about it, I'll deal with Rod's affairs as soon as possible, and you start doing it immediately...... Life is so smooth after our adventure that it's time to experience what it's like to be a parent and work hard to create an environment for our children. β
"Hey, you've got it all right. A slight smile appeared on the man's face: "Okay, I'll go and meet the major powerful people in this world in the afternoon, so that they can prepare for relevant cooperation." β
