Chapter 2688 Empire Spring
The spring of empire has come.
But in the underground world of Tianji Star, the spring that has never come for tens of thousands of years comes earlier than the surface.
Xu Zhicheng, the best mining worker in the former big iron factory, Xu Zhicheng, the guardian of Wuyou teaching, stood in front of the familiar yet unfamiliar big iron factory, and couldn't believe that the place where he was born and raised would become what it is today... like a mirage, a beautiful wheel Beautiful paradise!
The originally hot and stuffy factory area has undergone a brand-new transformation, adding countless automated production lines and psionic puppets, and turning it into the most advanced unmanned mining, smelting and even finishing one-stop equipment, which is second to none in the entire empire. More than 85% of the manpower has avoided wasting precious lives in the most dangerous positions.
The manpower saved was not wasted, but they became new construction workers after simple training. With the big iron factory as the center, they continued to open up the surrounding rock formations, excavated new living spaces one after another, and built a series of construction workers. The beautiful towns and industrial parks that look like gardens have turned the gloomy slave factories of the past into today's "model dungeons" that are enough to shine on the entire empire.
Even though Xu Zhicheng personally participated in the construction of bricks and tiles and watched all the wonderful changes happen, today, the brand new "Optoelectronics Information Industrial Park" was completed in the southern area of the Iron Works, and the entire underground city was decorated with lights and festoons. When celebrating Liantian, he was still full of emotions and couldn't believe his eyes.
This is really like a dream, a dream that has been posted for half a year and will continue to be posted!
Originally, when Li Yao, Long Yangjun, Li Jialing, Xiao Ming, and Wen Wen left, these underground people were already prepared to fight hard for ten, twenty, or even fifty or a hundred years—their The ancestors have been lingering in the dark for tens of thousands of years, so why not wait another hundred or two hundred years?
Unexpectedly, the victory came so quickly. After only holding on for half a year, they heard that Li Yao and the others had won a big victory on the ground, captured the entire Celestial Star, and even won the entire empire!
At first, the underground people were a little skeptical.
No way, fate really brought them too much torture and bad news. All the resistance in the past has turned into destruction, and all hope has turned into despair. They really dare not expect too much good news.
But soon, the precious materials transported from the ground container by container gave them a real taste of victory.
When groups of steel-framed, gleaming psychic puppets came to the underground town, they also panicked for a moment, thinking that these ruthless machines were here to execute the killing order.
However, what the psychic puppet is holding tightly is not a sword, but a pickaxe and a shovel. It is not here to make a killing, but to help them repair the shelter, expand the dungeon, and open up the traffic arteries between the various dungeons. Even expand the connection between the underground and the ground!
From that day on, the lives of the underground people got better and better.
Especially the Wuyou believers headed by Xu Zhicheng, as Li Yao's old acquaintance and Long Yangjun's confidant, naturally had the duty to become the core force to reform the underground world, and bore the brunt of the benefits brought by the reform.
Li Yao first recruited a large number of underground elites through Xu Zhicheng, and filled them into the "Golden Crystal Tower Guard"—because the Golden Crystal Tower is a "demilitarized zone", neither the Thunder Fleet nor the Arsonist United Fleet directly sent troops to station. People become the best guards.
Li Yao's emphasis is not only on guarding work, but through this guarding work, the most outstanding young people in the underground can receive more education and see a wider world. It won't take long for them to return to the deeper underground, to work of greater importance, to bring more light to their fellow men.
As for the other worry-free believers, they returned to the big iron factory and devoted themselves to the reconstruction and expansion. According to the plan, they will work with Xiaoming and Wenwen's puppet construction engineering team to build the big iron factory into a place full of high-spirited people. With sophisticated technology and beautiful environment, it is a garden-like "future industrial complex", a city that represents the future!
This is not only an innovative experiment, but also a powerful weapon for propaganda.
The whole process of their transformation and expansion of the big iron factory was made into various promotional videos, which were secretly put into the spiritual nets of the areas controlled by the four major families, so that the primitive people who are still under the terrorist rule of the four major families It can be seen that this is what the future empire will look like, and they can live a good life!
Now, some Wuyou believers are participating in the construction of the "Future City", while another part of the Wuyou believers are bringing their excavation skills to continuously open up more traffic between shelters and dungeons, and then shoulder the responsibility of the government's census and data. The job of the statistician is to bring more underground people who were ignored like weeds and ants into the effective rule of the empire, give them sufficient supplies, continuously improve their lives, and let more and more underground people join To their ranks, at an exponential rate, expand in all directions, in all rock formations and crevices.
In terms of materials, there is no shortage for the time being.
The four major families have left a large number of properties in the entire Extreme Heaven Realm and Tianji Star, and the four major families' ace fleets also brought a lot of resources when they invaded the imperial capital. These things are all the trophies of the reformers.
The trade channel between the imperial capital and the Seven Seas Star Region has been opened again, and a steady stream of supplies have been transported to support the post-disaster reconstruction of Tianji Star, which is not a problem.
The difficulty is how to transport the materials on the ground to the ground with the highest efficiency, and accurately distribute them to everyone in need.
In this regard, the two information beings, Xiao Ming and Wen Wen, have made great contributions. In other words, they are stretching the tentacles of their lives to the fullest, building a brand new and incredible information world underground.
On the surface, the rule of the immortal cultivators is very mature, and there are too many bottles and jars, it is impossible to smash them all and rebuild them. The growth of Xiao Ming and Wen Wen is subject to many constraints, so they must be careful at all times.
But the underground people are poor and white, even basic survival is a problem. Naturally, they don't care about such problems as "the crystal brain has life and in turn rules mankind". Anyone can do anything!
In the face of unprecedented new technologies, on the contrary, backward areas are more able to put aside all prejudices, absorb and apply them at all costs, and in turn surpass the originally more advanced areas and achieve "overtaking on curves". This is the history of the development of human civilization. A common phenomenon.
The same is true for people living in the ground of Tianji Star, skipping the very mature era of magic weapon industry, and directly entering a new era of super information technology!
In a short period of time, they got used to Xiaoming and Wenwen's ubiquity, and they also got used to working with the copper-headed and iron-brained psychic puppets. Even every babbling child was accompanied by a few psychic puppets. The puppet war beast of the net, Runwu silently learns simple manipulation and setting skills.
Seeing the innocent children playing with the sparkling silver psychic pets in the picturesque factory garden and laughing like silver bells, Xu Zhicheng felt his heart was about to melt into this intoxicating atmosphere. in the spring breeze.
He seemed to be dozens of years younger all of a sudden, and returned to the beautiful days when he was young, with his wife and children around.
The underground people are not fools, especially Xu Zhicheng, the great protector of the Wuyou Sect, naturally knows the worries of the ground people about the highly developed crystal brain and spirit net technology.
Even the underground people, when faced with ruthless psychic puppets and those steel and iron killing machines in the past, didn't they tremble with fear and grit their teeth with hatred, wishing to smash these iron heads one by one?
But no matter how bad the psionic puppets were, how could they be worse than those who oppressed them?
Even if one day, they are really ruled by crystal brains and spiritual nets, so what? Will it be any different from the darkness they have sunk in the past 10,000 years?
"The new generation of underground people, who have been exposed to spirit nets and crystal brains since they were born, and who have always been accompanied by psychic puppets during their growth, will definitely undergo unexpected changes when they grow up, and will become harmonious. Those people on the ground are different now."
Xu Zhicheng thought to himself, "But, so what? We underground people have always been different from surface people. Since immortal cultivators despise us and don't even regard us as the same kind, then we will be with crystal brains, spirit nets and psionic puppets , why not treat these cold machines as our compatriots? Anyway, in the eyes of immortal cultivators, we are just machines with a little warmth!"
"Uncle Xu, Uncle Xu!"
While Xu Zhicheng was pondering, he suddenly saw a slender figure riding on a red lizard, bouncing towards him.
Xu Zhicheng recognized it as a child named "Bing Bing". He was originally a resident of Vault 10084 deep underground, but now he is the liaison officer between various underground towns and the underground and the surface. something to send.
"Bing Bing."
Xu Zhicheng grinned, and waved his hand to stop the Bingbing red lizard, "What good things did you bring for uncle again?"
"It's a gift card, a permit to watch the enthronement ceremony!"
Bingbing was so excited that her face was red and her ears were flushed, she almost danced and said out of breath, "We are going to the imperial city, Uncle Xu, did you hear that, we are going to the imperial city!"
"Is the new king about to ascend the throne?"
Xu Zhicheng muttered a few words, but he wasn't as excited as the girl. He wasn't very interested in who would be the leader of the cultivators.
It's just that they didn't expect that even "original people" like them who don't see the light of day are eligible to watch the new emperor ascend the throne today. The world has really changed.
"Yeah yeah!"
Bingbing nodded again and again, eyes shining brightly and said, "Does Uncle Xu know who the new king is?"
"how could I know?"
Xu Zhicheng couldn't help laughing, "We are just underground savages, how can we have the right to speculate on the identity of the new king?"
"No, it has already been announced to the world. I believe it will not take long before it will spread on the Lingnet, but I am holding the private invitation card of the Black Wind King, so I am one step faster!"
Bingbing almost jumped up, "The new king is brother Jialing, Li Jialing who once fought with us underground! Oh, Li Jialing is his fake name, so it turns out that his real name is 'Wu Yingling', he is His Majesty the Emperor Shenwu. My thirteenth son, the most beloved and valued inheritor, the purest royal blood, just wanted to guard against the pursuit of the four major families and the erosion of the demons from outside the territory, so he went undercover and even lived among the people, and met us!"
"What!"
Xu Zhicheng was dumbfounded and went into a daze for a while.
