Volume 2 The Age of Mountains and Seas Chapter 69 Tongtian
The country's name change will inevitably be discussed. This is big news in the area controlled by the Xuanyuan Empire. In tea shops and restaurants, it is a topic of interest to NPCs or players. In addition to being new, the empire's name change must be discussed.
In-depth analysis. Although Wu Qi and others said that it was a friendly alliance and merger in order to take care of the emotions of the Yan and Huang Emperors, as time went by and some people who participated in the Zhuolu War accidentally leaked, the whole process became more complicated.
It is inferred that they are almost inseparable. However, these are all things for later and will have no impact on the current situation. Youxiong and Hushi are not stingy people in the first place, and they laughed at it after hearing it.
Since there are no major powers nearby, the Xuanyuan Empire is now in a stable development period. The huge profits brought by the oil mining rights have given the Third Division more room for development. This incident also reminded Wang Tian to pay attention to other exploration empires.
Regarding mineral resources, a new Ministry of Resources was established to unite with companies in need to explore mineral resources within the areas controlled by the empire. As for those that have been discovered to be mined privately, of course, all of them must be declared national, and the results are not bad.
Currently, an iron mine has been discovered. Within the territory of the Xuanyuan Alliance, the existence of "Qingsi" has simplified the process of refining refined iron. There is a gold mine, a copper mine, and several coal mines, which have once again brought a large amount of resources to the alliance.
The profit has finally gone from being barely maintained to the current monthly income of nearly 300,000 gold coins... Wu Qi and others are so happy that they are laughing from ear to ear even in their dreams.
The imperial army that Pan Shi was in charge of also expanded on a large scale. The first and second divisions of the Heavenly Army expanded to a thousand players. The Earth Army was still divided into twelve divisions, and the troops merged with the Xuanyuan Alliance were integrated one by one.
Each division has an average of about five hundred people, and the original "divine beasts" have been merged into the spiritual division. There are more NPCs in this part, nearly three thousand, with a wide variety of types, and the total number of troops has reached an unprecedented eleven thousand.
With the support of strong military force, the occupation and expansion of the surrounding villages are also proceeding relatively smoothly. However, due to Wang Tian's request, the expansion should proceed at a slow and even pace. Otherwise, if the transformation cannot keep up, there will be great consequences.
The internal affairs that Wang Tian is responsible for are quite busy. He has to restructure the newly occupied villages, invest in construction, rectify the population, etc. Although he has recruited a large number of NPC talents, he is still very busy. Xiaobao's Tiangongyuan gradually enters
Although it has not made much progress yet, the organization is basically fully staffed, but it is just a money-burning department.
In addition to the profits brought by the tour group, it also had the side effect of publicity, so more and more players and NPCs of all types joined them. Coupled with the unintentional publicity in reality, many players and companies came to Xuanyuan.
Empire, and in the game, some surrounding villages even offered to join the empire after seeing the prosperity of the empire, saving Pan Shi and Li Qiang a lot of trouble.
In this virtual world where magic is everywhere, players do not have to spend all day fighting for levels and killing monsters as in the past. To improve their strength, they need to understand the "way of heaven" and absorb the energy between heaven and earth.
, to achieve the unity of nature and man, and these cannot be forced, and can only be taken slowly. After many players reach a certain state, it is difficult to progress. For example, players in the Yuanshen stage, which is passed down by word of mouth, have to break through this state.
It seems to be very difficult, and opportunities are rare. Especially the NPCs in the Xuanyuan Alliance have a unique set of cultivation techniques. On the contrary, some players turn to the NPCs to learn from them, because it is faster and more effective than trying to figure it out on their own. In general
Generally speaking, although most players still focus on improving their strength, they have a lot of time to develop their own hobbies.
At the same time, due to the entry of some real-life technologies, many mechanical age products have appeared in the Xuanyuan Empire, but they are all in a relatively primitive stage. They are somewhat different from the rumored "countries" in some areas that are fully developing technology. They are typical fairy tales. It is a country where technology is the mainstay and machinery is the supplement. I heard that some countries have entered the late stage of the electric age, but the Xuanyuan Empire is still at the junction of the steam age and the electric age. However, due to the discovery of oil, it is expected that it will soon completely cross over. It’s the age of electrical appliances.
Since Wu Qi had Emperors Yan and Huang take charge of the affairs he had previously handled, he is now very leisurely. He often patrols his capital to see what is new. As for the reality, it is no longer very attractive, because every time Wu Qi After getting up from the game and walking around on the street twice, I found that there were fewer and fewer people on the street every time. This time I walked to the street for more than ten minutes without meeting anyone recently. More and more people have moved to In the game world, the price of survival capsules is getting cheaper and cheaper. In real life, the daily needs of human survival are provided by the fully automated factories of the "Taishi Alliance". They are equipped according to the level, and the consumption in reality is extremely streamlined. If you want to enjoy it, the food, clothing, housing, transportation, food, drinks and entertainment in the game are more exciting than in reality, and it is also convenient and straightforward. In reality, if you want to find a place to have fun, you have to worry about this and that problem, but in the game, there is no such thing This is a concern. But because of this, the most serious problem in society is that traditional family ethics are almost on the verge of collapse... But for a single man like Wu Qi, this is obviously not a problem that needs to be worried.
According to the plan announced by the "Taishi Alliance", it seems that guidance will be greatly strengthened to allow more, or even all, people to survive in the game. It is said that plans are being made to build a huge "Babel Tower" to store life-saving capsules. Wu Qi also I have seen the model of the "Tower of Babel". It is a huge conical building with countless transparent small squares on it. It should be the place where the life-support capsule is placed. This plan also announced that it will completely solve the conflict between man and nature by letting Each person only has a small room, which greatly reduces the area of human cities. It is said that such a "Tower of Babel" is 3,000 meters high above the ground and 2,000 meters deep underground, providing simple living needs for 100 million people. Only a very few VIPs with a very high level in reality are allowed to have private residences independent of the "Tower of Babel".
Although this plan is unbelievable, unexpectedly I didn’t hear any objections. Maybe people who have played the game feel that real life is not as fun as the game world. Wu Qi also felt a little awkward when he heard it. Do you think If a person only has such a small space of a few square meters, it seems too cramped. But then I think about it, since I started playing games, I have never used other parts of the room. Square meters of space, it didn't take long for me to feel relieved...
The political landscape on Earth is also quietly changing. I don’t know what’s going on. In just a few months, there seem to be more and more rumors of world unification. I wonder what the “Taishi Alliance” is doing. , or what kind of ultra-modern technology he has mastered, which can actually make the other major forces start to confront each other, then soften now, and tend to merge. However, for someone like Wu Qi who can just muddle along, these things are not worth delving into. , all I can think about now is to rush into the game and continue my glorious dominance.
A huge team of scientists has gathered in a huge secret underground base of the Taishi Alliance. A rather tall conical building stands impressively in the wide space of the base. Countless crystal coffins can be seen densely packed in a circular and diagonal shape.
The ground is arranged above, and the figure lying in the life-sustaining fluid can be vaguely seen in the crystal coffin.
In the suspended crystal hall of the base, the only five remaining giants in the world are holding a round table meeting, all with solemn expressions. This meeting has been held in secret for three days, during which various data and simulations were demonstrated. The result is
Shocking.
"According to the information and technology we have, and through calculations by our country's scientists, we have come to this conclusion, and everyone has seen it in the past few days. Everyone knows what the result will be, and the Tongtian Project must be carried out as soon as possible." The silver-haired man
A, the giant of the Taishi Alliance, said with a solemn expression as he kept tapping the sandalwood table with his knuckles: "Well, in fact, we have been doing this for quite some time, and all the top scientists in our country have been transferred here.
, participate in the Sumeru Realm, hoping to resolve the crisis in this world through concerted efforts."
Big B: "In fact, our alliance is also aware of the seriousness of this matter, so it has basically decided to join forces with the Taishi Alliance. Today, I hope to discuss the important decision of forming the Earth Alliance with the remaining three gentlemen. I think
, the struggle for power, the domination of the world are not important, what’s the point of the world belonging to you if there are only one hundred and fifty years left. At present, the only way is to form the Earth Alliance, devote all your intelligence to the Sumeru Realm, and complete the journey to heaven.
Plan, otherwise..." The implication is that if you don't do this, the consequences will be serious.
"Scientists from our federation have also reported the results of their first phase of experiments, which are indeed very worrying. I think you are right." Big C sighed: "In the past few days, I have been discussing with the Supreme Council of the federation
Through constant communication, we have basically reached a consensus that the way to solve the crisis is to unite."
Big D closed his eyes slightly and rubbed his head with both hands: "The Tongtian Plan, haha, allows all human beings to enter the game. It is incredible to think about it! Alas, I never dreamed that playing games can save the world."
"Union, only alliance is the last word!" Big D waved his hands and stood up, still full of energy. He has obviously been tested by politics for a long time and always maintains a strong fighting spirit: "The National Crisis Leading Group of our alliance has unanimously decided,
joint."
Giant A pointed at the huge Babel Tower in the base through the crystal peeling and said: "This is the Xumi Realm parallel to the game system. It was originally for civilian use, but because of the automation of the national economy and people's livelihood in the alliance's reality, coupled with the influence of the game
, the Sumeru Realm was eventually abolished because no one used it. However, because of the extreme reproducibility of reality in the Sumeru Realm, the time ratio was adjusted to 24:1, so it is perfect for scientific research.
Already."
"The function of the Tower of Babel is not only to store life-saving capsules, but the key is to absorb the micro-spiritual power generated by human beings in deep dormancy as the energy source for the Babel Project. But everyone's micro-spiritual power is extremely weak, and only everyone in the world can
Only by entering the Tower of Babel can we hope to collect enough subtle spiritual power. This is why we urgently want to abandon all different concepts and hope to form an earth alliance. Only in this way can we gather all the power and promote all human beings.
Only by entering the Babel Tower can we completely implement the Babel Plan." Big A smiled: "Otherwise, the princes, generals, and prime ministers will all be in vain in the end."
Three days later, the five giants on the earth jointly announced a declaration to abandon all prejudices and form the "Earth Alliance". Except for the citizens of the Taishi Alliance, the whole world was in an uproar and discussed. Most people in the Taishi Alliance were
After entering the life support cabin, even if you were concerned about this kind of thing, it would be several days in the game before you received this news.
The game "" was also announced to be open to people all over the world at the same time. The "Earth Alliance" will provide life-saving capsules to every citizen free of charge. This news once again caused an uproar around the world. On the one hand, this game has become famous.
The game that has been played for a long time can finally be played. On the one hand, I am surprised that the "Earth Alliance" is such a big deal, allocating the original very expensive life-saving capsules for free. Due to the original deep attention to this game, people from the other four factions have already
I really want to experience a new life in this game, and this time I can finally get my wish. In contrast, the news that the five major forces announced the formation of the "Earth Alliance" is not so attention-grabbing. After all, everyone has selfish motives.
The first thing to consider is your own interests. If you use the life-sustaining capsule, you can not only greatly extend your life in the game and experience a rich and colorful life, but according to official reports, living in the life-sustaining capsule for a long time can
Reduce damage to the human body and extend human life by three to four times. In other words, if it does not come out, the human body can survive for nearly five hundred years...
"Five hundred years?" Big A murmured with a wry smile as he looked at the report: "If you can indeed live for five hundred years, you have to be able to exist in this world for five hundred years!"
At this point, the "" game is truly fully open. People in the original four major spheres of influence even queued up to grab the life-saving capsules, just to experience the fantasy world as soon as possible. Politics? That is not a matter of concern. From the very beginning of TV
The news frantically reported news about world unification, news about the opening of the game, news about receiving free life-sustaining cabins, overwhelming numbers of senior people were invited to TV stations for special interviews, and then there was less and less news, and in the end even countless companies
was forced to close down because employees resigned one after another and went home to play games. Not many people were willing to waste time in reality. Because the "Earth Alliance" later announced that it would provide daily necessary necessities to people who entered the game free of charge, and also
It was announced that the construction of the Babel Tower would start. After the Babel Tower is completed, even daily necessities will no longer be needed, because the life-sustaining fluid can be connected at any time just like tap water, and there is no need to come out to buy and replace it yourself.
The game has been taken over by the "Earth Alliance". After this news was announced, the shock caused was much smaller, but it is inspiring to a certain extent. How promising and secure do you think a game taken over by a country is?
Although some people complained that people from the original Taishi Alliance were the first to enter the game and already had a high "level", and they complained everywhere. However, according to the explanation of the "Earth Alliance", people who entered the game later did not need to worry about this problem, because
They will not be born on the "Longhua Continent", but on another continent. Each country will form its own different continent according to local myths and legends, and within the first few hundred years of the game, it is impossible for there to be people who can travel between different continents.
Players, because there will be a very strong barrier between each continent.
In fact, this is also true. After entering the game, the other four forces discovered that the continent they were on was not the same as the continent of the Taishi Alliance that they knew from the reports. For example, after entering the game, the European, Australian and American countries discovered that they had arrived in
It is a world of swords and magic. Greece and other places are the golden age of gods. After entering, players from Southeast Asia find that they are a world of witchcraft... and the races are also different. Players like Taishi Alliance are basically yellow.
Human race, and the continent of Sword and Magic is dominated by white people. Of course, there are also other races, because in reality they all live together.
Although the players on Longhua Continent have become very interested in other continents in the game, many people (demon) have formed countless expedition teams, trying to invade them while they are still in their early stages, but all have failed.
These places can't be found at all, which proves the Earth Alliance's statement that it will probably be impossible to invade within hundreds of years.
Earth-shaking changes have occurred rapidly in just a few months, but these have had little impact on the players who were already in the game. For Wu Qi and others, it is almost negligible. In addition to admiration, discussion
After a few days, it had nothing to do with me anymore.
The development of the Xuanyuan Empire is the most important. As for other continents... forget it. Anyway, 124 districts have been discovered in Longhua Continent, and the end has not been found yet. I am too busy caring about District 6, so why not?
I have time to think about other things.
"Tower of Babel? It's really interesting, but according to our level in the alliance, we will probably be driven to the Tower of Babel." Xiaobao muttered, his face was red, and he was obviously a little dissatisfied.
"It should be said that we are an alliance. Are we going to be driven out of the house?" Wang Tian was obviously not very satisfied with the news.
"Rumors say there is this trend, and it's very bad. In reality, no matter how much money you make, you won't be able to enjoy it!" Pan Shi looked a little frustrated.
Wu Qi, on the other hand, looked indifferent: "Go ahead. Anyway, I am enjoying myself so much in the game now. In reality, I can hardly spend the money. But speaking of it, because I have more money, my level is now level 51.
I heard that the alliance will be ranked based on the money earned in the game, the wealth created, and the strength, so as to evaluate the level in reality. If the level is within level 20, you are allowed to have your own villa in reality...
…”
"Forget it, a villa is not a villa. Besides, the latest delivery of the life-saving cabin is said to have removed the seventy-two-hour offline rest limit, and you can stay in the game unlimitedly. I still enjoy the fairy-like feeling in the game
Life...I don’t care about the rest." Xiaobao shook his head, and the brothers were immediately relieved.
Regarding such rumors, not everyone can be as quick to ignore such rumors as Wu Qi and others. Many older people are not able to accept them for the time being, and there are some protests from time to time. But having said that, at present
I haven't seen any mandatory regulations from the alliance, but most people believe that these are not rumors, but news deliberately released by the alliance to test the public's reaction. I'm afraid it will be implemented sooner or later.
.
In fact, the alliance is indeed this idea. After all, it is almost an impossible task to reconstruct the real society that has existed for thousands of years in just a few months, and it will inevitably cause a huge backlash. But then
As the game progresses, after a year or two, people will be deeply immersed in the game. By then, if the mandatory "Tower of Babel" migration plan is implemented, there should be no trouble.
