Chapter 136 Chaotic Management
The wanderers, including Colehan, were worried about the space-time activities that would stop at any time.
They vaguely realized that perhaps the life in the past was gone forever. In the future, the entire old land would undergo tremendous changes that they could not imagine. Although many people had this feeling in their hearts, no one said it out loud, and no one was willing to admit it.
For these wanderers, they don't want to see such a reality. That means they can't go back to their past life of risking their lives in the wilderness, and can only become vassals of major financial groups.
Just then, a hovercraft flew over their heads and flew towards Dawn City.
These wanderers were a little surprised. Now that space-time activities have not completely stopped, there is still a certain risk in traveling by hovercraft.
However, they did not think too much about it, thinking that it was just the head of a small department of Lishan Technology who followed Mr. Chen's orders to check out the situation in Liming City.
On the hovercraft, Chen She was looking down at this somewhat unfamiliar land through the window of the hovercraft.
The intense space-time activities have caused tremendous changes in the surrounding landforms. Not only is the ground covered with thick time snow, but it will not melt for a long time.
More importantly, in central locations where temporal activity is particularly intense , large amounts of temporal snow cause serious erosion of the surface.
The battlefield chosen by the Corporate Alliance was originally a high ground. They were stationed on the high ground and occupied a favorable terrain with the support of a floating fortress.
However, due to the intense space-time activities, the entire high ground seemed to have been flattened, and even a pit appeared on the battlefield at the foot of the mountain.
The Time Snow Floating Fortress was like a small hill. Although the war had just stopped for two days, under the corrosion of the Time Snow, it looked like a relic from several years ago.
Just by seeing the tragic situation at the scene, Chen She could roughly imagine how tragic it was.
The Space-Time Knights took advantage of the space-time storm to drive a large number of space-time creatures to attack, while the Corporate Alliance Army fought back with various heavy weapons. The two sides fought repeatedly in this area and ended up with both sides suffering losses.
Currently, the corporate coalition forces have retreated to rest, so this area has been temporarily vacated.
Space-time activities are still frequent, and one or two lone space-time creatures often appear in space-time rifts. This area is still a restricted area that no one dares to approach rashly.
However, soon these space-time substances will solidify into space-time crystals. At that time, this place will become a rich mining area and may even become a paradise for wanderers.
Of course, if there are a lot of time-space crystals, the corporate coalition will naturally not leave all these good things to the wanderers. They will organize people to collect them directly with large equipment, or simply build a few small refineries in this place.
Chen She saw the current base of the corporate coalition army from afar on the hovercraft. They had retreated to an area not far from Liming City. However, the main force of the corporate coalition army looked listless, and there were not many people active in the entire base.
On the one hand, this is because the previous war was too brutal and the soldiers needed to rest, and on the other hand, everyone was waiting for the end of the time and space event.
Just like those wanderers in the Lishan Technology Field Base.
For most people, they have become accustomed to this natural law. After the more intense space-time activities, there will inevitably be a longer period of stability. Therefore, when the space-time activities are still going on, there is no need to go to the wilderness or carry out large-scale operations. Just wait patiently until the space-time activities are over before starting the reconstruction work.
But Chen She was very clear that this time's space-time activities were different from previous ones, and they would probably not stop in the short term.
Because this time-space activity is a special time-space storm created in the time-space world after Epsilon was upgraded, it will not only affect the surrounding area of Dawn City, but the entire Old Land will be subtly affected.
Epsilon's ultimate goal is to turn the entire Old Land into a paradise for space-time creatures, so this time's space-time activities are definitely not as simple as everyone expected, and it is possible that they will not stop for several months or even a year or two.
Chen She felt that he could not wait any longer. He had to go to Liming City immediately to allow Lishan Technology's development to enter the next stage as soon as possible.
This time, he brought all kinds of detailed information, mainly relevant evidence proving that the Icefield Defense Group launched a despicable sneak attack on Lishan Technology during this time and space activity.
Under the protection of the "Enterprise Special Law", Chen She will use all resources to make Bingyuan and Yuan Defense Group pay the price they deserve.
Of course, this is a special period, and the entire Liming City Council is showing some signs of stagnation. So Chen She is not in a hurry to play all these cards. He wants to take a look at the current state of the Liming City Council and find a suitable time to act in order to gain the greatest benefits for Lishan Technology.
The previous war was actually just the beginning, and the reshuffle of various forces after the war was what Chen She was most concerned about.
…
The hovercraft flew over Dawn City and continued to move towards the inner city.
What surprised Chen She was that the situation in Liming City was better than he had imagined. Although everyone was panicking, at least the most basic order was maintained.
Even in some civilian areas, order was maintained better than before. Because the corporate coalition army entered on a large scale and cleared the streets, under this atmosphere of martial law, the hooligans who used to do evil no longer dared to go out on the streets.
At present, the city's martial law has been initially lifted, and some pedestrians can be seen on the streets. The areas near the Lishan Technology Experience Store are obviously the best recovered. These areas originally had a very stable order and did not seem to be affected by the turmoil.
On the contrary, the situation in the inner city is even worse.
A large area of the core area centered on the Dawn City Council was affected by the space-time activities. Although the space-time creatures in the inner city had been cleared, the fear in the hearts of the residents in the inner city was getting more and more intense.
Many people in the inner city still dare not go out, fearing that they will run into space-time creatures. But some people are frantically trying to escape from Dawn City, believing that the entire Dawn City is no longer safe.
This situation seemed to be particularly evident among the wealthy class in Liming City. Chen She saw many hovercrafts on the road, taking off from the residential areas of the rich and flying towards the large airport in Liming City.
Although the city of Dawn is still under martial law and no one is allowed to leave, there are always some people who can find a way to leave.
Before entering the inner city, Chen She decided to broadcast a communication request to his acquaintances first to avoid being stopped.
He thought about it and called Sheriff Violet first.
The communication was quickly connected. Sheriff Violet seemed to be injured, but it did not seem to be particularly serious. She was still wearing her combat uniform and directing the subsequent aftermath work.
"Is there anything I can help you with, Congressman?" Sheriff Violet sounded very tired.
Chen She said, "I just arrived in the inner city. I heard that the Liming City Council was attacked. I want to go and see the situation there. I don't know the current situation in Liming City, so I want to say hello to you, the police chief."
Sheriff Violet said quickly, "Mr. Congressman, the congressmen are not in the parliament right now. The parliament has been severely damaged. There is also space-time matter everywhere. It has not been cleaned up yet, so there is a certain degree of danger."
"As far as I know, the congressmen may be preparing for a special meeting at another location. If you have nothing else to do, you should leave as soon as possible."
Chen She nodded, "Okay."
After ending the call, Chen She thought about it and called Liu Zhilin of Mellon Bank Group.
The information provided by Sheriff Violet was still useful. At least it let Chen She know that these congressmen were holding a special meeting.
This is normal. After all, the Dawn City Council has been destroyed like this. Now that communications have been restored, the entire Dawn City must be in chaos.
Ordinary people no longer trust the safety of Dawn City. From the previous series of martial law actions, to the subsequent battles between the Corporate Alliance Army and the Knights of Time and Space in the wild, to the serious damage suffered by the Dawn City Council now, all give people a clear message: Dawn City is doomed.
Chen She was well aware of the situation and knew that the Spacetime Knights had come out in full force this time and had also suffered heavy losses. They would not launch a large-scale attack on Dawn City in the short term, but others did not know that.
Those ordinary people only saw that the Corporate Alliance Army was beaten to a pulp by the Space-Time Knights outside Dawn City, and that various space-time activities were abnormally frequent, and even the Dawn City Council was infiltrated by the Space-Time Knights.
The scene of various space-time substances rushing down from the parliament building like a black waterfall left a serious psychological trauma on many people. People who originally thought they were absolutely safe suddenly discovered that space-time creatures could come to them at any time. This kind of pressure is definitely not something that ordinary people can withstand.
Those wealthy people with connections have begun to prepare to flee to other cities, while ordinary people have no way to escape, but this panic and anxiety will continue to spread, bringing greater chaos to the entire Dawn City.
Under such circumstances, the powerful figures in the Dawn City Council whose words are heard must indeed make some response and clean up this mess as soon as possible.
Logically speaking, Chen She was just an ordinary second-level member of parliament. He had no right to speak in such occasions, let alone attend this special meeting.
But Chen She still decided to broadcast a communication request to Liu Zhilin to test the waters. If he could get the nod of these congressmen to enter this special meeting, it would be very important for both Chen She himself and Lishan Technology.
After Chen She sent out the communication request, Liu Zhilin did not answer it immediately. Chen She was not in a hurry and waited patiently.
It was more than ten seconds later that Liu Zhilin accepted the communication request.
"Mr. Chen, I already know what happened to Lishan Technology. Let me send you an address. Come over now. We can have a good chat about some issues concerning Liming City."
