Chapter 799: Against the Current

Nearly 75% of the population fled the metropolitan area.

At this point, the social system has actually collapsed.

Major functional departments are either severely staffed or simply shut down.

Enterprises and companies are basically in a state of amplification, and there is no way to say when they will resume work.

The few industries that are still in operation are mainly retail trade, such as convenience stores, which mainly sell means of subsistence, and service industries, such as bars and fast food restaurants.

In this context, Kane had to send personnel to some functional facilities, such as power plants and water plants, which are closely related to basic needs.

Originally, it involved 200,000 square kilometers and more than 100 cities, and this kind of chores alone was enough to make Kane anxious, but the Castle Spirit of Mystic Castle is common to computer AI, and has a supercomputing system, as long as enough information and data are provided, then Castle Spirit can represent the decision-making level and manage affairs in an orderly manner.

So Kane only needs to act as an information hub, and the information feedback from the war bugs and the processing plan from the mysterious castle interact through him, although it also consumes brain power, but it is not distracted, it just occupies the information processing flow of some gods, and does not delay him from doing his own thing.

It is precisely because of this that the feeling given to the people of the fire prison is that every war insect is like an encyclopedia, no matter what kind of problem, it is difficult for them, there are doubts, needs, you can find them, basically can help solve them, where the responsibility is, there will be no prevarication, and there will be no vague and foolish people, no matter how big or small the problem is, one cannot be done, and no matter which one is asked.

In order to stabilize the people's hearts, Kane once again gave a public speech, bluntly stating the general situation of each region, and drew another pie for the people, that is, the central city and the citizenship system.

According to him, the cities that exist now will become peripheral cities in a month's time.

At that time, in the small city of Bolun, an ultra-modern magic city will rise, which will be the political, economic, and cultural center of the entire Fire Prison Territory, and the landmark building will be the Domain Force Field Magic Array Monument.

In order to match this round of boasting, Kane also deliberately gave some footage of construction. The huge and repeated magic array, the magic model is like a computer drawing, the outline of the light, the warp and weft are distinct, and the magic building materials that have been modulated are like concrete and cement pouring, rushing and flowing within the outline.

After the material is injected, the corresponding functions of the magic array are activated, the material begins to solidify, and mysterious symbols and magic patterns are added one by one, and finally a dense texture like a tree is formed on the surface.

Complete this step, the flesh and bones are there, the rest is on behalf of the skin of the external decoration, on behalf of the veins of various internal plumbing facilities, the exclusive space has long been set aside, the use of pipes is also resin-like flexible and anti-corrosion new materials, the use of extraordinary means, these pipes are like a live python, their own wandering, combined or disconnected, deployment efficiency is just right.

Ordinary workers need to do odd jobs, such as installing switches, faucets, toilets, and so on.

If there's anything that's criticized, it's the pattern and pattern of the new building, which is a bit petty, in some people's words, like an ultra-luxury version of the building.

The area of each household, at least more than 100 square meters, 200 square meters are ordinary, but the pattern is not good, from the overall point of view, it is really like a tube building, and it is a pile of super super tube building, three regular triangles, forming a whole, overlooking from the sky, like a nuclear bomb symbol.

If you look closely, you will find that this regular triangle is actually a hexagonal, and the three sharp corners have been cut off, that is, three long sides, and three short sides, which are roughly a regular triangle.

This kind of super tube building is very magnificent, with a height of more than 1,800 meters and a side length of kilometers, which is a spectacle in itself, using a lot of technology and materials beyond this era.

But even so, it can't hide the fact that it has a castle-like cage-like interior layout, but because it is large enough, and uses a lot of lighting and magic walls to simulate the outside scene, it will not make people feel oppressive, just like the feeling of shopping in a shopping and entertainment complex shopping mall.

The construction of the super building really reflects the reality that Kane is not bad for technology and money, but only for a short time to build a high-rise building.

Many people who intend to migrate, or have already started to migrate, even decide to wait a little longer.

And not just because the future blueprint of the central city is attractive enough. It is also because they feel something interesting from the architectural pattern of the central city.

Why build such a centralized, fortress-like spectacle-level building?

Just to pretend to be than, because you can, so you have to be extravagant?

You must know that such a construction is still very expensive. The main costs are magic wall curtains, lighting systems, ventilation systems, and security systems.

Small cottages with lawns in front of the door and gardens behind the houses, which are commonly used by modern federal people, would be more efficient and less expensive if built with extraordinary technology, but Kane chose to build this more expensive super tube building.

You must know that according to Kane's promise, the citizens of the Fire Prison will not have to spend a penny to obtain this kind of housing. Obviously, this is a benefit, and a very important one in the eyes of the lord.

People with a little bit of associative ability can feel the harshness of the external environment in the future through it.

After all, not long ago, the landing of the giant sea monster and the bombardment of the Judgment Light of the Dark Ark have already sounded the alarm for people.

Under such a monster, and that level of destruction, the conventional protection of the world is almost vulnerable.

There are no anti-nuclear fortifications in this world, and even if there are, it is useless, and the light of judgment is like a giant chisel of the gods, which has melted a gully dozens of meters deep on the earth, and has achieved the effect of burning glass.

The Fire Prison Collar created this kind of fortress-like construction, apparently to deal with this kind of situation.

It also includes evil creatures such as mutant demons and parasitic demons. Because the security of the super building is good enough, and the inside is protected by a special transcendent system, it is like a domain, and it is impossible to open the space-time passage without authorization, and it is very difficult to invade from the outside.

Although Kane did not elaborate on these Kanes during his speech, he opened the relevant introductions afterwards.

This is also the reason why it is said to be a cage, the monitoring is too tight, each citizen has his own unique identification code, and the invisible binding force is really high.

This makes many people feel uncomfortable just looking at it and thinking about it.

But when you think about it, most people can still think of both sides of the problem.

Why such a highly restrictive management system?

You must know that even if everyone is running out, the fire prison collar has not forbidden people to migrate, and it has always been persuasion as the only way to stay, and it is still the rhetoric of not coming back if you leave, which seems very arrogant. Where does this self-confidence come from?

The answer is that the Fire Prison Collar is very optimistic about the future environment, and is very confident in the future protection of the people.

This answer also vaguely echoes what Kane said in his first public address. If it was just for himself, he really didn't need to work so hard.

The recent war with the Catholic Church is also an indirect proof that although the Catholic Church has achieved certain results, its own losses are also very large, and more than 65% of the combat power invested has been destroyed.

The highest ratio of investment and survival is the airborne holy warriors, 1,500 inputs, and the final withdrawal is 486, that is, these 486 holy warriors, which compares the overall ratio, because each of them is worth 87 million just by equipment.

In addition, the overall ratio is the Dark Ark, two of which successfully escaped, both of which are high-value units.

The rest were annihilated.

From a secular military point of view, the war was fought in such a way that the Catholic side lost the war with only a pair of pants.

Kane blowers, just make a big fuss about this topic.

It must be said that the same rice raises a hundred kinds of people, some people don't like it, some people like it, although Kane's entry into the fire prison is unpopular for a series of reasons, but there are also supporters, and a considerable number of them have turned into iron fans after the war.

They spontaneously joined forces, actively responding to a series of decrees issued by Kane, and at the same time, they also won the hearts of Kane through speeches and leaflets.

One of Kane's latest blows is what would happen if the Catholic invasion took place in other regions?

It has been proven that Catholicism does not care about the lives of mortals, and even forces Kane to react by attacking the crowd like a real terrorist.

Kane said that it was only a matter of time before such a frenzied transcendent organization would expose its true nature and tear through the veil of hypocrisy, and once it happened, would there be another transcendent force willing to stand up and stand firm against it for the sake of ordinary people?

Kane blowers use this as a point to draw some arguments.

For example, those who choose to leave Central California at this time are basically not on the line.

For example, if you don't share hardship, you are not qualified to share prosperity, and if you choose to flee at this time, you will naturally not be sheltered in the future. So it's not a question of whether Kane is stingy or not, it's a matter of responsibility and rights in the simplest way.

After Kane sketched out the future blueprint of the central city, Kane had more hard words.

Kane watched them have a good time and provided them with some informational help.

For example, Cairn's Magic modified a Gulfstream business jet to hover and vertical take-off and landing, and the Cairns used it as a public vehicle to go to Quebec and Newfoundland for expeditions.

They brought back a lot of detailed documentary information, plus Kane's providence, to produce a pseudo-documentary, which is called a pseudo-documentary because it contains too much speculative content.

According to Kane's speculation, the future world environment is dominated by the Enchanted Black Forest, with poisonous gases, harmful radiation, evil objects, monsters, and spirits...... For ordinary people, this environment is very unfriendly, and survival will once again become the most urgent issue of human civilization.

They pointed out that it is not completely estimated that if there is no enough extraordinary protection, the world will lose 40% of the population in 1 year, that is, 2.8 billion+, and will also fall into a state of continuous blood loss, because in that volatile environment, the fertility rate will be low, rather than direct casualties, will remain high.

The extremists in Kane's blow are very unfriendly and openly insult those who have fled the metropolis: "God has given you the opportunity, you give it up easily, and even humiliate it, then in the future, we will sit in the castle and watch you die in the endless calamity!"

On the other hand, the dovish Kane blowers called on the world to start preparing for war and famine, and quoted fables such as the cold trumpet bird to illustrate the inevitability of great changes in the natural climate.

In fact, today, the natural climate anomaly has reached a point where it is almost impossible to hide it.

After all, the spread of nightmares is not only affected within the scope, but also outside the scope.

To put it simply, the global climate is a game of chess, and the ice in Greenland or Antarctica melts too much, which will affect the global temperature, ocean water level, including hot and cold air currents, ocean currents, and then trigger abnormal hurricanes and tsunamis.

The nightmare external influence is similar, it profoundly changes the regional environment, and then forms ripples of climate alienation, constantly radiating outward, so that the global climate is abnormal, such as frost, May snow, tornadoes......

Anyone who pays a little attention to the climate can feel that this year's climate anomaly is very obvious.

From a national point of view, it is actually very helpless to face this kind of problem, and it is very good to be able to do our best to prevent it, treat headaches and treat headaches. And on the macro level, it is natural to hide something.

After all, if the country is most afraid of declining and the people are panicking, there will be a chain reaction, and the economic losses caused are likely to be much greater than the losses directly caused by the disaster.

Therefore, it is the right thing for the state to control the mouthpiece of the media, to report good news but not bad news, or to play with words and play on words, and to regulate people's perception of disasters in non-affected areas.

Maintaining stability represents the guarantee of order, and as long as there is order, then the energy will continue to make up for the losses through the production of wealth, including the rigid needs of the disaster area.

But there are still smart people, or people with mild victim paranoia, who are sensitive to what the truth is.

Although the channels through which they get information are often not atmospheric, and much of the content is distorted in the process of delivery, the 'believe what you want to believe' characteristic still allows them to grasp some important points.

As a result, when the second migration tide was carried out in the later stages, the fire prison collar unexpectedly had a 'countercurrent'.

True, the same migrants, but these are the migrants from other regions to the Flame Prison Territory. They were citizens of the Union, and they looked like they were in the dust, many of them armed with rifles, like militia or guerrillas, forming small groups and coming in waves towards the fire guards.

Obviously, they had a lot of trouble on the road, which is why they were so tense.

Like the United States of America, which is known as a country on wheels, the Federation has a very high rate of vehicle ownership, and the culture related to automobiles is also very developed.

So it's not hard to imagine that these retrograde people are almost at odds with the ideas of the refugees in Central California, and friction between the two sides will inevitably occur on the periphery of Central California.

Even if you are no longer on the road, you may be at a gas station, a motel, a fast food restaurant, a highway lounge...... These are the most common places for people who travel long distances to rest, and those who travel to Central California in reverse are really eye-catching, especially those who obviously carry furniture and luggage.

It must be said that these people who made it to Central California were lucky.

Because at this time, Kane did not set too many restrictions on the population, even if he only had the ability to serve as a coolie on the construction site, he would not be driven away.

Kane does need a qualified industrial population to ensure that the current level of technology in this world can be utilized, and the connection with the magic technology he has mastered can be completed quickly.

But on the other hand, Kane also needs adequate population technology. He has even been ready to enter the era of free basic security in advance.

To put it simply, if you don't do anything and never starve, the paste will provide enough protein, carbohydrates, vitamins and trace elements to even solve the problem of satiety. It's all free, but if you want to live a good life, if you want to satisfy your appetite and live a luxurious life, you have to put in enough effort.

As for how to solve jobs in a high-tech environment, Kane's idea is to use a virtual system.

This system is more complex than a network system because it incorporates a belief system.

One of the experiments that Kane wants to do is the industrialization of faith, even if he believes in himself, money, and risk, he can form a transaction model through the virtual system.

To go into further detail, it is to use faith to directly exchange for the results you want, such as equipment, such as strength improvement, and virtual currency that can be exchanged with real-world currency, or even simply unified into one currency, called credits.

In this way, even the most ordinary people can provide value to the fire prison collar, and their indulging in the virtual world is not a waste, and under the deliberate guidance, they can completely improve their literacy and become professionals.

It can even be a little rougher, directly instilling knowledge, and then practicing and digesting in the virtual world, so as to achieve the unity of knowledge and action.

Then ten years at most, even if the external situation collapses, the mortal human civilization under his rule will be enough to enter the cosmic era. After all, he has completed the connection of science and technology, and the core related technologies of the near future, such as nuclear fusion reactors, supercomputing, space materials, space planting, etc., are all ready-made, and what is needed is nothing more than adaptive fine-tuning, as well as branching and branching out.

So now the appetite of the fire prison collar is very good, regardless of meat and vegetables, but Kane himself is very uninterested in the customs, culture, and community atmosphere of blacks and Mexicans. To put it bluntly, the comprehensive literacy is too low.

He also knows that objectively speaking, the main reason is not in the people, but the cost of cultivating them to become qualified talents (mainly time-consuming) is high, and it is also an indisputable fact.

The first wave of 'countercurrents' is basically federal citizens, and it belongs to the first month near the water.

And it didn't take long for a new 'counter-current' to appear, this time, from all over the world, and the number of them was beyond Kane's expectations......
