Chapter 1457 When Outside, the Emperor’s Orders Will Not Be Obeyed
Shen Yulin’s expression became more and more ferocious as he spoke.
The volume of his voice gradually increased, and he became more and more like a hungry ferocious beast facing its prey. The sound of his squirming intestines came from the depths of his throat.
In the end, even he realized that he had lost his composure.
He took a deep breath and lowered his tone as much as possible before he came to a conclusion. “Of course, no one likes war. No one is willing to put the fate of the entire city on the unpredictable gambling table again after decades of bloodshed and turmoil.
“However, the fact is that Dragon City urgently needs a new war to stop the bursting of the bubble and reconcile its internal conflicts. It has to successfully transform from a world without spirit power, a technological civilization born and bred, to a new world with spirit power and extraordinary strength, an invincible ruler.
“The fact is that in the past decades, everything in Dragon City-economy, morality, law, order, occupation, and scientific research
— revolved around war and served the war. Victory was the highest and only purpose. “The profits of the nine mega corporations and the relevant departments involved in the military and war fields alone have exceeded 50% of the company’s total profits.
“Said 50% of profits are related to thousands of jobs, the livelihood and well-being of thousands of families, and, in turn, Dragon City’s entire consumption market and financial market.
“The fact is that the only survival skill that many citizens of Dragon City have mastered in the past twenty to thirty years is stabbing cold, s.h.i.+ny blades into a monster’s carotid artery of the monster, avoid its cervical vertebrae precisely, cut its throat cleanly, and harvest every bit of material on its body perfectly.
“As for the other residents of Dragon City, the only survival skills they have are crafting cold, glittering blades out of crystals and metals, or polis.h.i.+ng thousands of components by hand and a.s.sembling them into a railway gun that is useless except for destruction.
“In the past year, because of the advent of peace, the skills that the residents relied on to survive have all turned into the skills of slaying dragons.
“Our nine mega corporations can still hold on for a while.
“How are these poor citizens going to survive?
“Don’t say such stupid things like changing careers.
“You should know that these citizens have devoted their entire lives to the only skill they have mastered in order to become qualified warriors and bladesmiths.
“Plus, the battles over the past decades have also left an extremely deep imprint on their bodies. It’s impossible for them to start a brand-new life from scratch as they drag their broken limbs.
“Besides, there are only so many people in Dragon City, and the consumer market is only so big. How can there be so many new jobs for thousands of citizens to live an easy and decent life when they are unable to expand to the outside world?
“Therefore, you will find that there is a very strange phenomenon in Dragon City today. “On one hand, after inheriting the heritage from the monster civilization, all kinds of new technologies, new projects, and new plans are springing up like bamboo shoots after the rain. The financial market is booming, and the entire city is rus.h.i.+ng forward as if hundreds of rocket engines have been installed. It’s as if an incomparably beautiful future will arrive tomorrow.
“But on the other hand, as the war machine gradually dies down, an increasing number of ordinary citizens can’t find satisfactory jobs. Even many superhuman individuals have lost the purpose of training and the goal of fighting
are
“Superhuman individuals like you and me who are engaged in the exploration, mining, and smelting of crystals and have a family background are quite lucky.
“The monster hunters who majored in combat and hunting skills aren’t as lucky. In the past, they were all superheroes who rushed to the front line of the Monster War and enjoyed the most beautiful flowers, the loudest cheers, and the warmest hugs. Naturally, they were the first to get the biggest piece of the cake.
“But now, the ferocious monsters in the past have either become a pile of broken bones or become obedient under the shackles and suppression of human beings.
“Therefore, these monster hunters with unparalleled military strength, like many ordinary citizens who have lost their jobs, are lost in the ever-changing new era and have tasted loss.
“The problem is that monster hunters are different from ordinary citizens. They can’t bear the fate of being ignored for a long time. If we don’t give them the sharp sabers in their hands and find a target that they can fight to their heart’s content, something bad will definitely happen!
“All in all, Dragon City, a war machine that has been rumbling and operating at high speed for decades, cannot be stopped. Once it stops, the power that can destroy everything will backfire on us, tearing the entire Dragon City into pieces.
“A brand-new war, although not a panacea to solve all problems, can at least stimulate Dragon City’s sluggish consumption market and bring new hope to all the citizens. It will unite everyone, including the ordinary citizens and superhuman ones. Of course, there is also a high chance that it will help us seize more resources, including, but not limited to, the natives of the Other World, the crystal lodes, the wider and more fertile land, and so on. “When the territory of the Dragon City civilization is ten times or even a hundred times larger than it is today, you’ll find that many problems that you can’t solve today will be resolved and disappear! “In the end, perhaps the most important thing is both of our immediate interests.
“As long as the nine corporations has control over it. More specifically, Dragon City has actually started a brand-new war and ushered in a glorious victory with advocacy from Universe Corporation and Sky Pillar Corporation. Without it, not only will there be no bubble in our valuation today, but we will also be in a once-in-a-lifetime depression. With it, there will be no problem for the stocks and options in our hands to rise ten times or even a hundred times.
“With your brains and skills, as well as the connections and opportunities provided by ‘us,’ won’t you have more than just wealth and freedom when the time comes?
“Owning an entire vein of crystals, together with hundreds and thousands of natives from the Other World as slaves who can be pa.s.sed on to future generations… That’s not wishful thinking, but a bottom line that can be easily obtained!”
Shen Yulin was lively.
Every muscle on his face was dancing.
He had a talent that could make the aroma of a large pancake a.s.sail one’s nostrils and make one’s appet.i.te soar.
It was a talent that could take out real gold and silver from the pockets of investors with just a few PowerPoint slides.
Meng Chao listened attentively, and his Adam’s apple moved.
It was as if he had really swallowed the large pancake that Shen Yulin had drawn.
“However, the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is about to slip through our fingers!” Shen Yulin changed the subject and gnashed his teeth. “There are a lot of short-sighted idiots in the Survival Committee who are about to destroy the Northbound Plan, destroy Dragon City’s future, and destroy the wealth and future that you and I are about to obtain.
“The vast and boundless valley of the Raging Tiger River is right before our eyes. Countless slaves that can be pa.s.sed on to our descendants are right before our eyes. The crystal veins are right before of our eyes. The glorious victory is right before our eyes. The hope of conquering the Other World and building a ‘New Earth’ to establish the foundation of the world is right before our eyes! “However, we are about to be bound by the idiotic order of the Survival Committee and be stuck from moving forward!
“I think that the ancient generals were advancing triumphantly. Just as they were about to attack the yellow dragon, they suddenly received twelve gold medals consecutively from the back. They could not have felt more helpless, frustrated, and indignant!
“However, we are not, nor should we be, the ancient generals who only know how to be foolish and loyal.
“Even the ancient generals on Earth know that ‘when the general is outside, the emperor’s orders will not be obeyed.’
“Outside Monster Mountain Range, with first-hand intelligence, we are shouldering the important mission of finding and creating hope for mankind. Of course, we are much clearer about where Dragon City’s sabers should be pointing than those naive, immature idiots who only know how to be moved.
“The Survival Committee’s order must be respected.
“However, isn’t it reasonable for the natives of the Other World to take the initiative to provoke us and sneak into the crystal mines to wreak havoc during the downpour, forcing us to defend and counterattack?
“It’s also reasonable that we, who have been tracking and searching for the orcs’ lair, lose our way due to the interference of the dense fog and the planet’s magnetic field, chased farther and farther away in the middle and lower reaches of the Raging Tiger River’s basin, isn’t it?
“In order to rescue our companions who’ve lost their way, we should send more troops to explore along the Raging Tiger River. It’s a reasonable decision that we should make. “When our main force finds and defeats the main force of the orcs, and we can even occupy a few large-scale orc lairs, the Survival Committee can only acquiesce and support our actions. Then, Dragon City will return to the right track, which leads to victory. “That’s all we have to do.
“After hearing all of this, you should understand that everything we do is not for our own selfish interests, but for Dragon City’s entire future.
“Once the situation really develops in this trajectory, the benefits your Sky Pillar Corporation can obtain from it will definitely not be half a copper coin less than Universe Corporation.
“After all, Sky Pillar Corporation also has a large number of armed personnel stationed outside Monster Mountain Range.
“Your Sky Pillar Corporation also has a lot of idle weapons and ammunition, as well as the production line of weapons and ammunition.
“The overall valuation of Sky Pillar Corporation is at an all-time high too. If you can’t extract an astronomical number of crystals from the mining area under your feet in the shortest amount of time to fulfill your promises to the investors, you’ll also be in an unprecedented crisis.
“Also, the Lu family has a lot of experienced monster hunters who are used to living on the edge of a knife. In times of peace, their income and status have plummeted. They are full of complaints, and they create trouble for nothing.
“Hence, there’s no reason for you to stop me, and there’s no reason for me to kill you. “We are tied to the same boat. Do we have a second choice besides sticking together?”
