Three days later, Lin En officially became the city lord.
The succession ceremony was kept simple according to his order.
He just changed the information on the identity plate and broadcast it on the lighthouse.
But when he sat in the city lord's hall and took the position of city lord, the first order he gave was:
It made the entire city lord hall go silent!
"From now on, the three major laws of life will be abolished!"
"There is no longer a distinction between upper-level citizens and lower-level citizens in the lighthouse. All job positions, except ministerial level, will be filled through competition!"
Lin En ignored the horrified looks below and announced the decision!
"Lord City Lord, why are you doing this?"
Jeff, the newly appointed hunter commander, took a step forward and asked anxiously,
"Will this cause a big mess?"
Hearing what he said, the city defense army commander Senger came back to his senses and hurriedly choked out:
"What are you worrying about! Since the Lord of the City has made such a decision, it must have deep meaning. We will just carry out the order!"
After saying that, he smiled flatteringly at Lin En, as if I would do whatever the adults say!
He knew very well in his heart that since the city lord specifically left the power of appointment and removal at the ministerial level, he would be absolutely safe!
Linn ignored him...
The city defense troops do not need to have much talent, they just need to be obedient.
Moreover, he did not make this decision on a whim, but after careful consideration.
The three major laws of life forcefully divide people into two classes according to their genes at birth.
The better ones have everything since childhood, free education, good medical care, clean food and shelter, and well-paying jobs when they grow up.
What about the lower class?
Nothing! Not even a name!
Living in the same lighthouse, we can only watch this injustice every day, but nothing can be changed.
If things go on like this for a long time, trouble will really happen!
The reason why Lynn wants to abolish it now is because the impact of abolishing it now will be the least and the cost will be the least.
After the three major laws are abolished and there is no distinction between upper-level citizens and ordinary people, all positions will be openly recruited and filled through competition.
But the ordinary people have not been trained and studied by the Shangmin at all. How can they possibly compete with the Shangmin now?
The status quo will not change much in a short period of time, or even within a few years, so that the basic order can be maintained.
The original Shangmin is still doing his previous job and gaining higher contribution points.
But if ordinary people want to get jobs with high contribution points, they need to study.
Although learning does not require contribution points, it does require a lot of time.
During this period, only the reserved contribution points can be consumed, and they can only study and work hard at the same time.
It seems that there is no change, but in fact it is very different.
They have hope!
Lynn gave them the choice.
Their destiny is no longer destined to remain unchanged, and they can achieve a better life as long as they work hard.
The same is true for Shangmin. Although their lives will not change at this stage, they have competitors after all.
If you want to keep your job, you need to continue studying and working hard.
In this way, the lighthouse will enter a virtuous cycle.
Of course there will be a price, but it must be paid!
…
In addition to this reason, Lynn also has a deeper reason.
“The lighthouse cannot float in the sky forever!!!”
This is a result that many people are well aware of but dare not think about.
Such a huge thing floating in the sky requires huge supplies every day.
Although food is no longer the most urgent consumable, what about energy? What about machine maintenance?
The lighthouse cannot produce energy. The solar panels on the top alone are not enough to maintain operation. It still needs to be collected from the ground.
However, there are fewer and fewer places on the ground where energy can be searched. Even if it is found, the source energy stored inside is being consumed little by little over time, and it is destined to return empty-handed one day.
What to do then?
Moreover, the lighthouse has been floating in Tiansheng for fifty years.
It is a behemoth composed of countless precision machines.
Since machines always break down, the lighthouse people have carefully maintained them for countless years, but there are limits.
The oxidation of steel, the wear and tear of machines, and the damage of parts. Without the support of countless high-tech departments and factories on the ground, how many years can we survive just by picking up some garbage and repairing it?
One day in the future, the lighthouse will eventually crash.
This vision is inevitable!
Want to avoid this outcome,
The lighthouse must go down to the ground!
Hide on the lighthouse and try to survive? Or find another way out and risk your life on the ground?
This was not an option for Lynn.
Besides, there are already ready-made examples!
Since Bai Yuekui's underground city can exist, so can the lighthouse people.
Lynn already has a preliminary plan.
An underground base can be rebuilt not too far away from Bai Yuekui.
First send a small group of people down to build the base while experimenting with integrating into the Mana ecosystem. Under the leadership of experienced people, this is not impossible.
When the underground base begins to take shape and more and more people are integrated into Mana, the number of people underground can be increased and Bai Yuekui's city can take care of each other.
The two are in one place, and they can not only communicate with each other in various materials, manpower, and technology, but also support each other when they are attacked.
If a place is facing a disaster, there can be a way out.
Lin En believed that Bai Yuekui had no reason to object to this kind of thing.
If so, Linn can also provide any technology owned by the lighthouse in exchange for integrating them into Mana's technology.
Didn't they say last time that they wanted a bio-generator for making flour? They can also exchange it.
It's a win-win!
To achieve all this, we must first loosen the lighthouse people,
The three laws of life must never be brought to the surface.
so,
In the main hall of the city,
Lin En said astonishingly:
"During my last mission in an ecologically dense area, I actually encountered humans on the ground!"
Next,
Lin En briefly told these senior officials about the last time he met humans on the ground.
"Humanity on the surface has built an underground city and it's running well."
You can hear a needle drop in the hall...
Everyone's faces were full of disbelief, especially when they heard that humans on the surface had built an underground city.
If anyone else had told me this, they would have scoffed.
But Lin En is the city lord now, and with his prestige and past performance, he will never talk nonsense!
That is to say,
"Can the ground... really survive?" Ran Bing asked tremblingly.
Linn nodded, "I saw it with my own eyes and chatted with them for a while."
"They have mastered a technique of being invisible in the Devouring Beast, and more importantly, this technique can be learned!"
"As long as we master this technology, move underground and build our own underground city, it will be just around the corner!"
