Chapter 671 16.04 (Part 2) Mainstream Occupation ‘Hero’
In the northeast corner of Wanlun Continent, Wei Keng was lying on the bell tower of the town. The bell tower of the town is a social place for birds all year round, because birds feel that they can overlook human activities here.
Of course, after Wei Keng learned to climb the wall, he often fried bird meat and sprinkled cumin here with the help of sunlight, and this place became a place that birds avoided.
Wei Keng: Pick the fattest ones, aim with a slingshot, bleed, pluck the feathers, remove the internal organs, wrap them with leaves, apply mud, and control the heat. I have practiced this skill for three years.
Enma is thirteen years old. In the past two years, his height has risen rapidly and he has suddenly jumped to about 1.7 meters. This is already the state of an adult, with well-proportioned and lean body muscles.
With the agility of an elf, of course, if special rules are added, the attributes will change. For example, in the "martial energy state", Wei Keng can swing an air knife and split the half pork hanging at the butcher's door five meters in the air. Oh, it's opened along the gap between the ribs, and it can't break bones in the air.
According to the eight ancient factions, Wei Keng now belongs to the spell system.
Of course, directly penetrating the crystal wall of the world dominated by different gods, such a spell system level is strictly considered to be above level nine, and even legends can't do it. Only the demigods who have a connection with high-level gods have their own talents. But it can't be applied on such a large scale.
As for the reason why it can penetrate the "crystal wall" of each plane, it is still the "big cause and effect" technique released by Wei Keng that year. In the process of penetrating multiple planes, this cause and effect technique engulfed all the consciousness of Wei Keng's crossing.
So, the consciousness left by Wei Keng was originally an internal cause in each plane, so it can naturally penetrate all "planes of high-level beliefs".
In this day and age, without industry, it is impossible to maintain a population of several hundred million.
And without the communication of several hundred million people, it is not a valuable plane.
"Industry" is the top-level godhood.
But when "science, industry, and machinery" rose at the same time, why was "industry" missing?
This is the biggest "mystery", which is only known by the gods of "science", "industry", "machinery", "fate" and "knowledge".
The gods who have risen in the multiverse in the past two hundred years, according to the seniority of the traversers, are all the younger generations of Wei Keng, Mikaelena, and Oliot. So the gods are also very curious now! As the god of fate, Mika warned these younger generations to "ask less".
... Master Wei is also very low-key. When he came to the new multiverse, he never mentioned the past...
On all the major planes, the Wei Kengs are all self-reliant and bypass the gods to provide "assistance".
In the eyes of these gods, these Wei Kengs are in a competitive relationship with each other. They don't know which "Wei Keng" on these planes will eventually seize the godhood, but they are ready to cast a wider net. As long as they bribed a mortal Wei Keng, they would directly help him become a god.
These gods who were lower in "technology, industry, and machinery" also understood the principle of "holding the emperor hostage to command the princes". If they could assist the "industrial" godhood, they, as subordinate gods, could obtain huge benefits when they could determine the "right" industrial development route. This would not benefit one or two worlds, but a large "industrial timeline".
Of course, they made a wrong calculation. The mortal Wei Keng did have many minor mortal problems, such as being as a teenager with wild thoughts, showing off with a sword in private, and being stingy with money. However, when it came to the system of gods, they maintained a high degree of organization.
A thousand Wei Kengs entered the multidimensional plane, with a strict internal organization. No single unit communicated with the outside world.
The attitude of the mortal Wei Kengs on each plane towards the gods: I lack information. If there is anything, I will talk to Bai Linglu, and she can represent my opinion.
...However, most of the time, Wei Keng lay peacefully in his youth, and he did not even communicate with the agents of the gods. …
Ordinary life enhances one's spiritual power little by little, not seeking more, just seeking not to fall behind.
Within the age of thirteen, Wei Keng's spiritual power has grown more than forty times that of some scholars.
But this is still far from the same as the situation of the "mainstream" professionals in the current industrial age.
…The limit of the countryside is the workshop, while the city is full of industrial towers...
As we all know, there are two ways to conceal information. The first is to hide behind the scenes and cover it with mystery, and the second is to add "holy light" to make you unable to see clearly.
In the era of swords and magic, the objects favored by the gods are "holy warriors".
They act openly in front of the world, but their power system is watched by countless mortals, but under the light of the great power of the gods, no one can see clearly. Under the holy light is "secret".
The new gods do not need to rely on offerings, but rely on the common sense that mortals firmly believe in to gain faith. The new gods have a stronger influence than the old gods.
In the era of swords and magic, you can avoid temple rituals and even hide in the forest to practice other professions.
Nowadays, you can’t live without industrial products! Food, clothing, housing and transportation are all produced in factories, and as long as they come out of factories, they must have an "industrial" flavor.
Soap, kitchen knives, and wheelbarrows are all processed in urban factories. After these industrial products spread out, they also spread the relevant "common sense". And these spread "common sense" are superstitious to a large number of people, and this force of faith is fed back to the industrial manufacturing center.
So this is different from the earth. All manufacturing centers are like the "temples" in the era of swords and magic, absorbing the power of faith from all directions.
And these powers of faith will provide various "effects" to assist industrial manufacturing. These manufactured industrial products will be put on the market, which will accelerate the indoctrination of common sense.
For example, when a huge mechanical vehicle in the village lifted dozens of tons of concrete to install a bridge, the villagers began to praise the "trademark" on the facility while refreshing their three views. Wei Keng later realized that this was not a trademark, but a divine emblem.
After the indoctrination of common sense was completed, the power of faith returned to the center to accelerate manufacturing, which belongs to the "coal and iron economy positive cycle" model
Being close to the center, there will naturally be innate authority, and then industrial power groups will be formed in major cities.
Those upper classes in the city, their spiritual power is connected to various industrial furnaces, and from weapon parts to daily necessities, they have control over production authority.
Now the factory owners in the city are not "sacrifices", but in fact they play a sacrificial effect.
Therefore, Wei Keng now has a clear understanding that "mystics" are completely inferior to those who control the state machinery in today's era of omnipresent industry.
No matter how powerful one's personal cultivation is, spiritual power is only personal power, and the controller of the industrial furnace can use the superstition of hundreds of thousands of people on the product as fuel to crush you in this multiverse where information is respected.
Narrator: Imagine that Apple fans and Tesla fans in the 21st century will understand this way of collecting faith.
In the village, Wei Keng and many children played together and gained everyone's admiration.
However, Wei Keng looked up: a huge mountain was pressing on his head.
... Another half a year has passed...
In the town, the school days are over. Because there will be war on the continent in the next few years, the town is filled with the atmosphere of conscription.
The Sky Empire only provides six years of primary compulsory education. Therefore, the childhood of teenagers is very short. All men will be effectively used by the empire after the age of fourteen.
After the black fuel vehicles drove into the town, the representatives from the school and workshop had to receive these well-dressed bigwigs in the city.
…Enma stood in the queue of children, watching the social skills of these adults…
Wei Keng is now in the class of ordinary people in the town. Under normal circumstances, he will never be able to touch the power of the upper professionals in this industrial age.
Wei Keng: "I came here with a hook", the fierce Wei Keng began to seriously think about the rebellion route.
The six major empires in the world such as Wanlun Continent have been fighting until now. Food collection and famine are often present. Why is there no resistance from the bottom up! Because the suppression force in the big cities is too strong.
The core stage of this world belongs to the potential people who were born in "high-level families" and have spiritual connections with various industrial furnaces. They are working towards "hero units".
Oh, "hero units" are the names of the main world. According to mortals, they are "leaders", "industrial lords", "scientific lords", and "mechanical lords". They exist as generals and city lords. One person can add morale and maintain a whole team of war machines by throwing mechanical holy oil.
They are equivalent to contemporary "holy warriors". Of course, their beliefs are not as ignorant as those of ancient holy warriors. Their beliefs are often linked to their industrial capital.
To a certain extent, this "capital belief" is more indestructible than the "fanaticism" of ancient holy warriors.
The first to ninth ring arcane levels are no longer applicable. Instead, there are heroes of level one to ten.
Heroes often have four skills, and it is very rare to have five skills.
Except for the ultimate skill, the other three skills are from level one to level three. The upgrade rule is not that one skill is directly upgraded to level three. At least two skills must be clicked before one skill can be majored in to level three.
For example, the famous hero of the Western Federation, Okan, as a seventh-level hero, has a famous skill, Light Prism Splash. Within his influence range, the beams fired by the "Fierce Light Cannon" of a chariot team (eight heavy chariots) are all "intelligently programmed". When these "intelligent" lights hit a target, they will automatically adjust the angle to splash three heavy armored targets within a range of 200 meters, five air targets within a range of 1,000 meters, and infantry light armored targets within a range of 500 meters.
And the empire where Enma is now, the generals that Wei Keng saw in the newspaper.
Well, it may be a hero at the level of colonel. The most common skill is "Industrial Lubrication". Specify a large war vehicle, the energy loss of this land cruiser will be reduced by 30%, and then the attack speed will increase by 10% or 20%, and the movement speed will soar to 30%, which will last for about ten minutes.
… Wei Keng: Damn, the times have changed. …
Wei Keng couldn't help but think of the last time he came to the arcane plane, those mechanical priests! Oh, time has changed, and now it has developed to this level.
When the gods of the industrial series are present, the mainstream professionals who are linked to the industry have completely thrown off all the mystical systems. Heroes can unilaterally exempt other mystics from any curse!
When the mystics usually issue a curse, it will inevitably affect the "industrial furnace" behind the professionals, which is the existence that burns the faith of hundreds of thousands of people all the time.
As mentioned earlier, it is impossible for contemporary people to live independently without modern industrial products. If the mystics at the bottom of society dare to curse the controller of the "faith power aggregation" industrial furnace, it is like a child spitting at a hot steel furnace.
The amount of information that traditional mystics can leverage is far less than one thousandth of that of these "heroic units". Oh, Wei Keng can now match them, that's because Wei Keng is an outlier.
The differences in social status, financial resources, and information channels are the differences between hero units and mystics.
Just like in the middle of the 21st century, the fully mechanized, informationized, and unmanned regular army left behind the local militia with earthen guns and donkeys.
...In the industrial age of the multiverse, the class differences are even greater than in the sword and magic age...
In big cities, these heroes in high-rise buildings are the pillars of national cities, and the rest of the mystics can only survive.
Because they are on the edge of industrialization, you can refer to the fate of the "Gypsies" in Europe.
Now the gods related to various industries do not need temples, these heroes are living high priests.
They lead mortals and allocate industrial products for mortals to live and fight, which conceptually supports industrial beliefs.
Wei Keng commented on the "heroes" in the newspaper who were based on magnificent machinery: "But in essence, you (these 'hero units') are still on the mysterious side. The upper and lower information curtains are deliberately maintained so that the parameters in the 'industrial furnace' can be affected at will."
In the eyes of Wei Keng, the existence that created the "industrial godhood", various industrial parameters must be strictly controlled within the standard value. This standard value is like the law! It is best not to change it, so that everyone can generally adapt.
Behind these skills are the "idealistic" influences of various industrial gods and human beliefs on physical phenomena. Isn't this "supernatural"?
Wei Keng: "Although I am not suitable to be called the 'technological side', you are completely unworthy."
…A starlight seemed to flash in the sky, as if to agree with this statement. …
When saying this, Wei Keng was completing a piece of gallium nitride crystal on the town clock tower.
And completed a set of "water fusion" facilities on the lower level, activated multiple plane reflection projections, and radiated beams to scan the surroundings.
Oh, Wei Keng saw through such a set of long-distance observation facilities, hundreds of kilometers away, a cluster of airships floating in the sky, and a large number of ruts left by the muddy roads crushed by armored tracks, which were burned by the war outside this village.
Of course, before Wei Keng could give orders, a letter from home dragged him back to the mortal world.
A thirteen-year-old male has become a candidate for conscription. Although Wei Keng has obtained the qualification for exemption from the examination, he must return and report to the village headman, otherwise he will be treated as a "deserter". And the residents who escaped from the service will face another round of heavy taxes.
In today's industrial age, no matter how bad it is, the ruling power is still incomparable to the feudal era.
In the feudal era, there was no such large-scale "sustainable way of conscription".
Wei Keng reported his identity as a "technical student" and filled in this column for himself when filling out the form at the conscription office. Go to take the local examination, as long as you pass the exam, you don't have to take a gun to fill in the line, and Wei Keng's own grades have always been excellent.
The next day, Wei Keng got on a mechanical truck, carrying a lot of gifts. In particular, the chief said: There is a radio missing in the town meeting room. (This is a bribe to Wei Keng. The large appliances in the meeting room will eventually be delivered to his home every few days)
Enma nodded quickly, saying that he would take care of it. Although he has obtained the authority to be exempted from the front line,
but he still needs to deal with the social etiquette in the town.
Don't wait at night, it will be updated normally tomorrow.
In addition, this world is purely fictional. Any similarities are purely coincidental. Do not bring it into reality.
