Chapter 447 Prospect

"Glorious citizens of Cecil, good afternoon, I am your lord."

The voice from Duke Cecil resounded solemnly and lowly in the square, and the whole square was silent.

Everyone opened their mouths and eyes widened, staring at the huge holographic image in the center of the square in astonishment and confusion, as if they were watching a miracle that fell from the sky.

Even the soldiers standing in the center of the square and beside the communicator had a hint of excitement on their faces: although they could only see a chaotic spot of light and a part of the clear image due to the viewing angle of the projection, It is very clear that the content of this image is what is happening at this moment. Their lord is standing in Cecil City at this moment, but he actually spread his figure and voice here.

Archon Daedalus also raised his head slightly excitedly and whispered to himself: "Sure enough... incredible..."

And the voice that echoed in the square continued after a brief pause:

"...Citizens, I am honored and proud to tell you that the Rock Fortress has been occupied by the brave and loyal Cecil Combat Corps, and the remnants of the rebellious nobles hiding in the fortress have also been captured...

"...This land is safe, at least for now.

"Citizens, this honor belongs to every Cecil - not only the Cecils on the banks of the White Water, but also those of you who are gathered in front of the holographic projection at this moment, including those who are unable to come to the party, but are still in your own Others who work diligently in their jobs, including everyone who lives in this land of the South, whether you are now farmers, mercenaries, merchants, knights, officials, serfs, or even slaves, wherever you have come from, and now , you will all share this glory, you are the cornerstone and pillar of the Principality of Cecil, and your diligence and wisdom will make this land more prosperous and great...

"But security is not eternal, there are still enemies who are eyeing us, trying to subvert the kingdom's rebellious eastern border, the second royal family that was put up in name only by the Duke Protector, Typhon outside the kingdom's borders, and evil spirits hidden in the shadows. Christians, even within our duchy... our enemies are always there.

"Let us remain vigilant and ready to meet these threats, and let us remain strong and never fear these challenges. . . .

"And until the challenge comes, before the peace is broken, citizens, build and enjoy this great age - what I promise you will still stand, the land will be given to the settlers, and the hardworking serfs will have Freedom and their own property, those who join the factory will be rewarded according to their hard work, and those who are active in giving birth, actively studying, signing up for the army, farming and doing business will also have their own rewards.

"And I will be proud of you."

The picture and sound ended, but the silence in the square continued for a long time, until after several minutes, it was not known who was the first to cheer in the crowd, followed by the second and third people. stand up.

So the whole square cheered.

However, in fact, more than half of the people are just cheering. They have not fully understood what is happening in front of them, and they have not fully understood the meaning of every word of the previous lord. They only know that this is a moment of excitement, and they are surrounded by people around them. The atmosphere is wrapped in a kind of blind enthusiasm for conformity, but what does it matter?

For the commoners who have almost no entertainment, and who have been able to see and have access to very little news in their lives, they saw an incredible magical miracle today, saw the lord appearing in the giant projection, and heard the lord's speech. Hearing the news of the victory on the front line, even I was greatly encouraged - this is certainly worth cheering!

So people cheered, whether they understood it or not, they all cheered, and in the cheers, there was a little sense of pride, although these people who once belonged to the Earl of Hossman had not come into contact with them. The complete concept of "glory of labor" and "hard work to build a new era", but the lord said it, to be proud of them... that is very honorable.

In the center of the square, where the administrative officials were standing, a young female administrative officer was moved after hearing the cheers resounding throughout the square and seeing the collective enthusiasm of so many people, she muttered to herself Get up: "This is what the lord said...the power of the people?"

"No, it's just blind people," said Daedalus, the mayor of Hossman City, the governor of the city, shaking his head. Thinking people', they are far from the truly awakened citizens who work passionately on their own consciousness, and that are the real 'Cecil citizens'."

"Blindly agitating..." The young female political officer was a little surprised, but she was obviously one of the apprentices who had been taught by Hetty, so she quickly nodded thoughtfully, "That's right... this side is still there. In its infancy..."

"It doesn't matter, even the people who are temporarily excited by enthusiasm are good, at least better than the dead water they looked like before," Daedalus said softly, "The lord once said another sentence, that is, 'Inefficient labor is better than Don't work'. A place like Hossman is different from the pioneering leader of Cecil at the beginning. The people here are much less stressed and have their own way of life, so to make them burst into the enthusiasm for construction, Sometimes you need some of this 'incentive'. We don't need it to work long-term -- just temporarily."

The two government officials ended their conversation, and the cheers and drum noises in the square gradually subsided. Daedalus stepped forward, and with the aid of amplification magic, his voice resounded through the square:

"Citizens of Hosman City, what you have just seen is the images and pictures transmitted by the large magic net communicator. In the next month, we will set up the same public broadcasting devices in three other places in the city. ...

"In addition, the 'civil communication point' for ordinary people will also be opened in the near future. Regarding the use of magic web communicators, you can wait for the soldiers to explain, read out, or read the relevant content on the bulletin board and newspapers by yourself.

"Let us thank everyone who has worked diligently on the Leynet communication project, its inventors and builders."

...

Cecil City, in the temporary "broadcast hall" built in the Magic Technology Research Institute.

The first broadcast of the era of magic net communication is over, but to be honest, at the beginning of its birth, Gawain never thought that the content of its first broadcast would be his own "speech".

Frankly, what he said was not what he wanted to say the most.

But he knew better that what he was speaking about was most effective during this period.

Propaganda should consider the audience, consider the audience's world view, and also consider their comprehension ability and thinking mode. In this semi-test semi-formal broadcast, the coverage of the magic net communication is the Hosman area in the west and the Rock-Karl in the north. The Lore-Kant line extends eastward to the Glen Landing. Although the coverage is still far from the entire southern border, it is still quite a large area. Within this range, 90% of the audience is Just became a Cecil resident.

Unlike the people in Cecil City, these "new citizens" have not received modern general education, have not been exposed to the magic industry society, and even know few words. What they can understand is still old. The order under the rule of the nobles at that time, if you tell them something too advanced and too advanced, they will not only not understand, but may even begin to question the new lord.

Therefore, it is better to encourage and encourage, at least let these "new citizens" have a little motivation to build a new life.

Gawain left the platform on which he was speaking, and Rebecca, who was watching a large number of rune boards not far away to monitor the situation, immediately greeted him: "Master Ancestor! You were really imposing just now. !"

Gawain rubbed Rebecca's hair casually: "How is the signal situation everywhere?"

"The feedback has come back. Only the signal quality near the rock fortress is very poor. It is suspected that the relay tower temporarily set up during the war was not effective, or that the magic turbulence generated after the collapse of the rock fortress' large magic shield is still affecting the local magic field. , I have informed the Vald Knights in the fortress, and asked him to send a group of magic technicians to collect the data of the nearby magic field, and I will study it when I come back. The signals in other places are very good. "

"Okay," Gawain nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Carmel, who was floating not far away, "Kamel, you've worked hard this time."

Thanks to the ancient arcane master who worked overtime to adjust the entire magic net communication network, and led a group of technicians in the Magic Technology Research Institute to work out a primitive "broadcasting hall", Gawain and Rebecca returned. Only after arriving in the territory can this broadcast, which is very time-sensitive, be carried out for the first time.

"This is my duty," Carmel bent down slightly, then looked at the magic communication terminal in the center of the hall, his tone was full of emotion, "Signal broadcasting... I really didn't expect that I would see it again in this era. it……"

"Not only can you see it, but in the near future, you can see it everywhere." Gao Wen laughed, he was not satisfied with turning such a useful magic net communication system into a simple "Lord's Speech Amplification" Since the idea of ​​"universal broadcasting" has been confirmed through experiments, he will use this set of things to realize many good things that he has come into contact with in his previous life.

Although the current communication devices are still very primitive, and the traditional audio-visual recording spells have not yet been mass-produced by the magic industry, perhaps he can already consider building a "radio (magic) video network" in some areas of the southern border...

Of course, this idea may be a little too early. After all, even the Magic Web Communication Bureau in the Government Affairs Office has only just established a framework. The administrators who have newly taken over this project are still studying the various aspects of this brand-new thing. Due to this characteristic, there is simply no extra manpower and energy to carry out the next step, but since the material technology has been realized, Gawain believes that it is only a matter of time before normalized and practical information broadcasting within the territory is realized.

While Gawain, Rebecca, and Carmel gathered in the Magic Technology Research Institute to study the communicator with great interest, Nicholas Egg finally completed a new work in the Mechanical Research Institute located in the east of the city.

A cylinder with a smooth surface and a large number of runes engraved on its side floated in front of him.

"Mom... it's done..." There was a pleasant buzzing sound inside the Iron Ball star, "The new alloy material is not so difficult to handle..."
