Chapter 897: Development and the Tide of the Times
Beep beep beep
A melodious whistle sounded in the sky, and between two thick white clouds, a mechanical-looking city was looming.
If you look closely, you can see that the thick white clouds are actually emitted from the factory chimneys around the Mechanical City.
“The Magic Machinery Factory is a high-tech factory without any pollution.
As you can see, the only waste gas emitted by the Magic Machinery Factory is pure water vapor clouds. "
A fairy wearing the city lord's uniform walked proudly in front of the team and introduced to the wizard behind him:
"In addition to the most critical feature of no pollution, the Magic Mechanical Factory does not need to consume wood or ore to produce secondary resources such as mercury and crystal!"
"Ah!" "This..." "No need? Is this true..."
"I have a question!" A wizard suddenly raised his hand.
"Hehe. Excuse me." The Fairy City Lord adjusted his tie.
"Hello, Fantasy City Lord.
I am a reporter for the lawful forces and [Science Today].
As far as I know, the energy and elements in the Yasa world are generally conserved.
Energy and elements do not create or appear out of thin air; they simply transform from one form to another.
Now the Yasa world does have very mature resource conversion technology, but it all requires wood and ore.
It is a consensus throughout the world that primary resources are needed as materials to produce secondary resources.
And the new type of factory you showed can synthesize level 2 resources without level 1 resources.
Is this the latest scientific research result of [Mechanical Casting City]? If so, can you tell me a little about the specific principle? "
"Of course." The Fairy City Lord said proudly:
“That’s what we were going to make public.
Ha ha ha ha.
You're not wrong, but you're only half right.
This new factory is the result of joint research between our [Mechanical Foundry City] and [Death Force]. "
The Fairy City Lord patted his chest and said loudly with great pride:
“Three years have passed since the establishment of the Mechanical Foundry City, Port City, and Fortress City!
During these three years, the main contradiction in our Yasha world has shifted from [the contradiction between the ever-expanding city construction needs of the entire world and the serious shortage of population] to [the contradiction between the ever-expanding city construction needs of the entire world and the serious shortage of the number and output of high-level resources].
To put it simply, three years ago there was a shortage of population, and now there is a shortage of resources!
Under the leadership of the God of Miracles, the population growth rate of the Yasha world has now completely kept up with the needs of the expansion of cities throughout the world. However, the resource output of the Yasha world is even lower.
According to the data released by the Church of Wealth, the annual resource output of the entire Yasha world has actually always been a fixed value that fluctuates up and down, and it has been like this since the birth of the Yasha world.
All naturally generated resources are transformed from [Yasha Energy] by [Resource Rune Slab].
In the past, the resources of the entire Asian Sand World were always in excess, and even if all the arms in the world were used together, they could not be used up. Every year, a large amount of surplus resources created in the world would be deposited into the bottom layer.
But now the population of the Asian World is growing exponentially, increasing tenfold a year and a hundredfold in two years, and the same is true for the number of cities in the Asian World.
Every time a city is successfully built, the residents of this city will spontaneously build the city.
Including but not limited to expanding the city's area, building more powerful buildings, upgrading the level of the city's sub-sa fire and so on.
Eventually, the Acropolis will develop into a county town, and the county town will develop into the main city.
This process is inevitable as the city's population increases.
It is [development] that orderly life will definitely pursue after solving [survival]!
And this process is bound to be accompanied by a large amount of resource consumption.
By now, the resources accumulated by the Yasa world over countless years have been exhausted.
All the new cities in the entire Yasa world, with a logistical population of nearly one trillion, are eagerly awaiting the birth of those new mineral veins.
Those cities with insufficient resources, especially the cities of our [Mechanical Casting Force], consume much more resources than cities of other forces, and are now even more stretched.
Some cities even have to withhold the advancement resources of their own troops in order to maintain their own development.
The problem of insufficient resources has led to some border frictions, conflicts between cities and within the cities. It has destroyed the harmonious atmosphere of unity and unity in the Asian Sand world to fight against chaos. "
The Fairy City Lord's words made the surrounding reporters nod their heads in agreement.
The Asian sand world has now entered an era of great leaps forward, changing with each passing day. The entire world is developing faster in one year than it has in the past decade or so.
Of course, this speed of development is based on the premise of extremely rapid consumption of resources.
In today's Asian sand world, the problem of insufficient resource production capacity has seriously restricted world development.
"There have been many proposals to solve the resource problem. For example, capturing other worlds of order in the void like Chaos. Absorbing other worlds of order to obtain a large amount of resources at one time; squeezing rune slabs to increase the resource production area of the Yasha world by overloading, and so on.
But these solutions all have strong side effects.
And our great God of Miracles and pioneer of machinery had already anticipated today's situation.
We have already started research on our new resource factory on the day Hades was born.
The most important reason why the [New Resource Factory] can produce secondary resources without consumption is that it can import chaotic energy from the battlefield of the gods through the [Divine Power Channel].
We all know that whenever Chaos soldiers die in the Battlefield of the Gods, in addition to a small part that will be absorbed by the Yasa World, another large part will escape and be recovered by Chaos.
This is undoubtedly a huge waste of chaotic energy!
There is an upper limit to the rate at which the Battlefield of the Gods absorbs chaotic energy. To break this limit, one must join the power of the Yasa world.
And this power comes from the natural connection between [astronomy] and the divine power network!
As long as there is a hero who knows [Astronomy] in a city, he can build a divine power channel between the city and the divine power network.
Chaos energy naturally covets the Yasha world and has an extremely strong desire to attack the Yasha world.
After sensing the divine power channel, they will consciously separate a part of themselves to explore the situation behind the divine power channel.
This part of the chaotic energy that comes over to test will be captured by the capture device of our factory, and after a series of complex elemental changes and magical changes, it will become a valuable secondary resource.
Strictly speaking, our new resource factory is not a simple building, but a trap.
The prey we need to capture is the Chaos monsters that died on the Chaos battlefield."
As the Fairy City Lord spoke, he brought out a statue of the Seven Doves, the God of Miracles, and placed it near the factory's divine power channel.
With the appearance of the seven dove statues, the already violent chaotic energy became even more violent, and it desperately squeezed into the divine power channel.
"Ahem!" The Fairy City Lord shook his head and said:
“As you can see, the statue of the God of Miracles has a strong hatred-attracting effect on Chaos.
By using the statue of the God of Miracles as a valve, the flow of chaotic energy can be controlled.
If you place the statue of the God of Miracles close to the divine power channel, the flow of chaotic energy will be greater, otherwise it will be smaller."
Everyone: ...
"Ahem! The God of Miracles won't blame me for using the statue of the God of Miracles to do this, right?"
"No! No! The God of Miracles said that no matter whether the cat is black or white, as long as it can catch mice, it is a good cat.
As long as he can deal with Chaos, he won't care about these details."
God’s grace is great.
The reporter of Science Today was deeply moved and wrote:
“Even today when science and technology have become extremely advanced, the God of Miracles still plays a vital role in the latest scientific research successes.
This fully demonstrates the superiority, advancement and irreplaceability of the God of Miracles’ thoughts! ”
The reporter of Science Today asked while recording:
"I see! Bypassing the Chaos Mist and directly utilizing the free Chaos Energy.
This is truly an unprecedented idea. However, will directly utilizing chaotic energy in this way bring unpredictable risks?"
"Haha, of course.
The great mechanical pioneer, Lord Trosa, once said: "Any new technology will bring unpredictable risks. If you are afraid of risks and dare not try, then science will not progress."
Reasonably predict and avoid risks. When risks occur, take appropriate solutions.
This is also a vital ability for scientific researchers.”
Having said that, the goblin's mature face turned heavy.
He bowed solemnly towards the sky and said loudly:
"A total of 3,675 researchers sacrificed their lives to develop a new type of factory that could connect with astronomy.
Among them, some died due to the instability of order caused by the explosion of chaotic energy, some died due to the shock of rules caused by the construction of divine power channels, and some died due to the void disturbance caused by the instability of factories.
We will always remember their sacrifice.
Of course, we also believe that they must be relieved in the underworld because we finally succeeded. "
…
…
"No, it's still too far away." Qi Ge shook his head and looked at Trosa opposite him, with a bitter look on his face.
“ Even if new resources are deployed in all mechanical foundry cities, the factory can only barely satisfy the mechanical foundry forces. The demand for resources itself cannot fill the huge pit of the entire Yasha world.
This is no longer a problem of our technology or the number of factories, but rather that the Chaos Energy of the Battlefield of the Gods is not enough to meet the energy consumption demand generated by the rapid development of the entire Yasha world."
Qi Ge said with a sad face:
"To put it bluntly, there are just too few Chaos Lords. The Chaos Tentacles they brought with them have been squeezed too hard by us and there is no more oil left.
If a person is about to be strangled to death, it is useless to press his stomach, give him artificial respiration, or encourage him to hold on.
The first thing to do is to let go.”
"It's too fast, really too fast." Trosa said with emotion: "In just a few years, half of the territory of the entire Yasha world has cities.
Before the Underworld Farm Project began, over tens of thousands of years in the Yasa world, the combined area of all the order creatures' cities was less than 10% of the Yasa world.
In just a few years, we accomplished what would normally take tens of thousands of years to accomplish.
Lord City Lord, your strategic vision is truly remarkable."
"It's not that I'm amazing, but the creatures in the Yasha world are amazing, especially those low-level soldiers."
Qi Ge said with emotion:
“I just removed some of the restrictions and shackles on them, and they burst out with a fighting power far beyond my expectations.
We guarantee their survival and call on them to have children, and they really do have children, without any ambiguity.
As long as the survival of the population is guaranteed, and the population size is reached, everything will happen naturally.
Orderly creatures are the creators of all material civilization, spiritual civilization and world history. All stories come into being only because of orderly creatures.
The productivity of the Yasa world, in the final analysis, is the labor force of orderly creatures.
The increase in population naturally leads to an increase in the total productivity of the Asian world.
Because there is a sufficient population base, there will naturally be enough geniuses born.
Genius will promote the development of science and technology, magic, society, etc., which will eventually lead to increased production efficiency. Increased production efficiency will lead to continued increase in productivity.
Whenever productivity reaches a certain level, it will trigger a round of social change.
In each round of social change, countless trendsetters who keep up with the times will rise up and become new geniuses, thus forming a new virtuous circle. "
Seven Pigeons smiled and said to Trosa:
"Of course, your mechanical race has also made great contributions. Without them and the undead who have been working tirelessly to undertake the most basic, yet most important, repetitive tasks in society, the civilization transformation of the Yasha world would not have been so rapid.
When social development stagnates, many problems that have been covered up due to development will be exposed.
But as long as the mechanical race and the undead race are here, all problems are minor and will not harm the foundation of the Yasa world."
The fire in Trosa's chest turned, and thunder gushed out from his head.
"Hahaha, it's all thanks to your good leadership.
Lord City Lord, I wonder if you have heard of this good news.
In addition to our mechanical race and the undead race, a new race that is good at basic work has emerged.
I wonder if you have ever heard of garden fairies? In the city of Mored in Bracada, due to some historical reasons, fairies could not be born before El Zeus was deified.
So the wizard there tamed a level 1 creature called a garden goblin as a substitute for the goblin.
Of course, in the era of great change, this domestication system, which was highly similar to slavery, was abolished.
However, garden elves are hardworking and never complain, never make demands, and are lively, cute, diligent and capable. They can be fed with just a bite of food, making them more useful than halflings who require gold coins to hire.
The local wizards had long been accustomed to life with the help of garden fairies, and had always found it difficult to accept the liberation of the garden fairies.
Of course, they did not dare to risk the world's condemnation and continue to enslave the garden fairies.
So, they wanted to develop a substitute for the garden fairies that was similar to mechanical soldiers.
You know what, they actually did it.
Those wizards used garden elves and fierce-fanged beasts to develop a kind of [artificial flesh and blood puppet creature] - [Gremlins].
This is a half-living, half-mechanical type of soldier that is highly similar to living creatures. It is a brand-new type of soldier that combines four systems: magic, sorcery, machinery, and abnormal flesh and blood.
Gremlins are smarter and more docile than garden elves, and have a natural sensitivity to machinery, making them well suited for controlling war machines and mechanical soldiers.
This is simply an incredible miracle.
However, the inventors of [Gremlins] are just a group of ordinary heroes who tried their best to be lazy. Even their leader has not reached the level of a master! "
“Haha, this is luck, but also their unremitting efforts.
Miracles are about deeds, not about the heart."
Qi Ge smiled and said:
“The power of the masses is great, isn’t it?”
"Of course!" Trosa said with relief: "History has already proved that you are right. My God of Miracles."
