Chapter 158: Ten Years
"Currently, only the archaeological excavations in the Mond Snow Mountain area and the Xumi Desert are progressing smoothly , but you also know the specific situation in Xumi..."
"The pit that old devil Bona dug for us..." A participant was full of resentment. He spent a lot of manpower and resources on Xumi, but the gains were very little. Fortunately, they also secretly carried out some archaeological activities that the people of Xumi did not know about.
"So the most important thing now is to restart archaeological excavations in various places and obtain enough and powerful ancient technologies."
"Our latest mass-produced mechas can adapt well to the underground archaeological environment, and we can also use the giant snake for archaeological research. It is said that there is a huge relic under the Stratum Chasm. Perhaps we can..."
"There are many places under the Xumi rainforest and desert..."
"There are a lot of underground spaces in Inazuma, but it's a bit troublesome to go there. Currently, the entire Inazuma is very hostile to us, damn Ren Lian Lingyi."
"And how is the research on the dragon beast series going?" asked a senior executive.
"We have almost completed the research. As long as we break through some technical barriers, we can start mass production."
"I heard that the giant monster that Rhinedot accidentally discovered can now move normally?"
The meeting room fell into silence, and after a while, the discussion resumed.
"That girl bewitched the royal family. Let's not mention her anymore. The only way for Kanriya to become stronger is through machinery."
"May the machines last forever."
"May the machines last forever!"
…
Ten years passed in the blink of an eye, and Inazuma has undergone earth-shaking changes during these ten years.
The agricultural income levels in various places have barely reached the average level of Teyvat, and some better-developed areas have even reached the level of the Sumeru rainforest area.
This is mainly due to soil improvement, crop improvement and the use of fertilizers. Inazuma's fiscal revenue is now 3.5 times what it was ten years ago.
After Inazuma became powerful, it gradually rejected aid from other countries except Liyue, Mondstadt and Xumi.
One reason is that other countries are not much richer than Inazuma, another is that Inazuma still cannot do without Liyue's ore supply, and another is that Mondstadt's food and Xumi's meat are really cheap.
The progress in military power is also significant. The shogunate is now full of strong men and skilled craftsmen. Under the effect of [One System of Divine Machines], the entire Inazuma has gained countless ordinary talents.
Now, all the members of the shogunate must have a life energy level of LV25+, and any team leader has a life energy level of LV30+.
In the past, LV30+ could be awarded the rank of flag officer, but after the military ranks were revised this year, although the salaries of this group of people did not decrease, their positions were all downgraded to Yili. Many of the former Yili were demoted to Tongxin after being evaluated.
At the same time, Ren Lian Lingyi developed a secret medicine a few years ago that can break through the human limit (LV50+) with less damage to the body.
In this revision of military ranks, all those with life energy level below LV50 were demoted to hatamoto.
Currently, humans can only become generals if they reach LV50+.
However, even if the position is raised, the number of generals with such strength among the Tenryo Bugyo of the entire shogunate has exceeded one hundred, and among the Okujishu, the number of those with the strength of generals has exceeded fifty.
Ren Lian Lingyi separated the Aojie clan from the others during the re-adjustment of military ranks and positions.
Among the Okuji people, there are three major categories: the palace guards, the shadow guards, and the ceremonial guards, and the titles are sergeant, hatamoto, and general.
Among them, the most common ones are the guards of the Lei Dian General. They practice the orthodox system and usually appear as the personal guards of the Lei Dian General. They are responsible for protecting the Lei Dian General, escorting documents, etc.
The Shadow Guards are the personal guards of the Shadow Warriors, who are also the incarnation of General Raiden's martial arts. They are responsible for acting in secret, usually cooperating with the Final Fantasy or the [Iwakage Raikou no Yasuo] to attack, and are responsible for clearing out various threats from Inazuma in secret, most of which are evil spirits and Kanreya spies.
The ceremonial guards are the honor guard, which are composed of the most majestic and heroic warriors. They usually appear in the team of the Mingshen Festival. The selection criteria for ceremonial guards are quite stringent. Not only are there requirements on appearance, but also on life energy level. Only those with LV45+ and above can enter.
Currently, most of the Aojie people, except for some logistics personnel, have life energy levels of LV40+. In the past, no one paid attention to this, resulting in the weak life energy levels of the Aojie people, who are all thunder-attributed original gods (LV30+). Now that attention has been paid, the life energy levels have been immediately raised. In the final analysis, they are worthy of being original gods, and are much stronger than ordinary people.
This is because there are many new people and many old people have retired.
Of course, Inazuma's current military strength is naturally not just what is on the surface. With the application of a series of Wanzhong Shenji, the quality of private soldiers and death squads recruited by each family has also increased dramatically.
Although there were a lot of problems, they were not too big because it was an overall improvement.
After all, nowadays, even ordinary farmers' life energy levels are around LV7+, and everyone can use a hoe well, which is much stronger than when Ren Lian Lingyi first came.
After all, at that time, the life energy levels of ordinary people were generally LV1-LV5. Only those who had undergone general training would reach LV10. Only those from rural families or those who participated in the conscription organized by the Tenryo could become elite soldiers after going through untold hardships and make their life energy levels break through to LV15.
At that time, the lower-level warriors (countrymen and fellow warriors) only needed a life energy level of LV20. After all, it was still somewhat difficult to transform the life energy level once.
Although the life energy level standard for lower-level samurai has not changed, if you walk down the street, you will find that the life energy level of any ronin is now LV20+.
After all, with abundant supplies , even ronin can have their fill. Once the nutrition is rich, the life energy level will naturally be raised. Then, by fighting with monsters in the wild, they can easily break the limit.
In the past ten years, not only has Inazuma changed a lot, but the Sumi scholars who came to Inazuma have also changed a lot.
After studying Kaigi Island for several years, scholars of the Life Theory School were still unable to solve the problem of land life loss on Kaigi Island. However, they did offer a suggestion that was not really a suggestion, which was to buy fertilizers. This was indeed quite effective, at least preventing the rumors of people starving to death on Kaigi Island in recent years.
They were indeed elite scholars. After leaving Haigi Island, they expanded the fertilizer market and, with Ren Lian Lingyi's advice, they actually succeeded in developing a rudimentary technology for soilless cultivation.
What is quite regrettable to Lord Narukami is that this technology is not suitable for Kaigi Island, because both the nutrient solution and other instruments are very expensive, and Kaigi Island cannot afford them. The current soilless cultivation technology is only a laboratory technology, and it is unknown how long it will take for it to be successfully applied in practice.
However, even so, those scholars were able to publish more than a dozen high-quality papers, which made everyone happy.
