Clash of Lords: Civilization Game Comes to Reality

Chapter 152 Neutralization, Deception, and Lai

(This chapter is actually 152 + original 153)

"Earthquake깊!"

I don’t know who shouted 깊 for the first time.

The sound of panic and fear came from behind, and the crowd quickly fled from shops and restaurants, as if they wanted to run out, but there were also many who just stood there, not knowing what to do, they had never experienced defense. During the disaster drill, I thought my own house was the safest place.

The panic caused by a small earthquake did not last long, and an investigation later found that the largest number of deaths actually caused a stampede.

The earthquake did not hit as they imagined. The ground stopped shaking after a slight but continuous shaking.

Everyone looked at the Leyline Tower in the distance, which began to gradually disintegrate in the flow of light. It was entering the process of self-destruction. There was no loud and shocking explosion, and a beam of light that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye connected the sky and the ground with the Leyline Tower as a transit. If you get very close, you can hear the sound of the building structure disintegrating bit by bit.

It fell apart until the entire towering Leyline Tower disintegrated and only the foundation remained.

Then, it seems that the energy in the sky has reached its limit and begins to flow back into the ground again, or that stones thrown upward will eventually fall back to the ground under the influence of heavy weight.

Invisible waves swept across the ground beneath their feet, and then returned to silence.

The end?

Ji Lin looked at Wang Qing and seemed to be wondering that the impact of the moderate earthquake was not related to the earthquake.

Wang Qing was even more shocked. Because the Leyline Tower is connected to the leyline, it is the strongest building here. It is a temporary carrier of leyline energy. The existence of the leyline will greatly strengthen the structural strength of the Leyline Tower.

The structural strength is so high that even a heavy crossbow cannot penetrate the Leyline Tower 놅늌 wall.

Now the town is safe after experiencing a round of minor earthquakes, but the strongest leyline tower explodes in this extremely shocking way...Wang Qing doesn't know whether self-destruction is appropriate to describe it. This is obviously self-disintegration, and it is not the same as self-destruction. The explosion had nothing to do with it.

Ji Lin looked at Wang Qing, as if he wanted to hear his explanation, while Wang Qing stared at Lin Sen, as if asking him what he was doing.

"I, I installed a neutralization device in this ley line tower, hoping to use the ley line tower as a transit node to offset the negative effects of earthquakes and natural disasters."

The latter lowered his head like a child who had made a mistake.

"Komori, you didn't make the neutralization device, did you?"

Ji Lin is a newcomer, so I don’t know. Wang Qing is fully aware that the child he brought with him is not skilled enough in mechanical skills to allow him to make any improvements to the Leyline Tower... There are mountains of technical information in the pile of old papers. Just looking at it makes my scalp tingle, and only senior craftsmen can piece together the complete structure diagram from it.

And to make improvements from it, only the extremely talented 놅그 can do it.

Lin Sen said, with a bit of panic in his voice.

"During maintenance, I discovered that the accumulation of chaos here has reached its peak. If the pressure is forcibly released... I remembered that the chief gave me this neutralization device made using the mechanism technique... but she said that this is not enough 냭Verified...let me not use it casually.”

Wang Qing watched the entire Leyline Tower evaporate in the distance, and nodded with some difficulty. As a neutralization carrier, the Leyline Tower and the core of the Leyline were evaporated cleanly.

Now that the technology has been verified, the neutralization device will temporarily counteract the natural disaster at the cost of an entire Leyline Tower.

After all, they don't have the luxury to use a Leyline Tower as a one-time experimental material. They just follow the builder's design drawings to maintain these towers that have been in operation for hundreds of years. Things like natural disasters and earthquakes may last ten years. Everyone must come once.

But times have changed.

Some are trying to be rescue teams.

Others are thinking about how to use the Leyline Tower to minimize these pressures since disaster is inevitable.

In the past, the Leyline Tower could suppress geological disasters in the entire area. It has been running stably for several years without the need for animal assistance. Now they can only treat it like a dead horse.

Both sides are using their own different methods to treat the symptoms.

But the situation is so critical that even a child like Lin Sen, who has completed formal training as a Star Pulse Master, has to start working. He can only undertake the most basic maintenance work.

Wang Qing sighed, thinking that some colleague gave him this experimental device to help him, so that he could try it out when he didn't have enough energy.

However, although the Leyline Tower self-destructed, this city of thousands of people survived. Only a few shops along the street were damaged due to jerry-built construction, and many more people were not even aware that the earthquake was happening.

One thing for one thing... in exchange for these ten thousand lives and the preservation of wealth, it is considered worthwhile.

It's just that there is no leyline tower, farming here...

When those extreme celestial phenomena come again, how can we solve them without relying on the Leyline Tower? The hard times have just begun, but the agency may be able to help them recover some losses.

Wang Qing was worried about the people, while Ji Lin stared into the distance. It was originally the Earthline Tower, but now there was nothing visible from him.

A fairly good plan was constructed while thinking.

"Don't you want the core?"

Wang Qing was attracted by his voice.

"Then come and act out a play with me."

He knew how to leave himself to escort the three earth cores.

————

"Everyone, you should also have seen the explosion of the Leyline Tower. Because of the changes in the Leyline, we found that the original road was no longer passable."

Ji Lin accordingly introduced the two Mohist disciples to them. On this point, he did not lie or deceive, either true or false.

"I am in the army, but this matter is indeed due to intention."

Ji Lin said to his subordinate rangers with an expressionless face.

"The road ahead has collapsed and accumulated water. The weight of the vehicle we are carrying is too heavy and it is difficult to pass. We may have to stay here for a while. I have sent a chief to lead a team to conduct reconnaissance on the specific situation."

It is always more credible to send someone to conduct reconnaissance than to make empty claims. Seeing the existence of the rotten land in person will continuously increase the credibility of the content. This is what Ji Lin used to increase the credibility of his statement. plan.

The plan is not complicated, it is essentially a double act.

He first pretended that he was surprised when these two Mohist disciples came to his door, and made an impression on the rangers who had just experienced the earthquake and saw the Leyline Tower disintegrating.

The road ahead is impassable, so they need to wait here.

Since they can't move forward, they will take advantage of the situation to raise their demands, and Ji Lin will reluctantly agree to their requests.

They artificially create bad areas that block the movement of heavy vehicles.

Ji Lin was familiar with the terrain. He used his own experience to guide Lin Sen on how to create a bad land on the land. The Star Vein Magician who left the earth veins had no fighting skills and did not rely on the power of the earth veins. Forcibly changing large areas of land, but still changing the terrain on a small scale.

Ji Lin repeatedly confirmed this small-scale terrain change, the number of times it was used, and the specific changes with Lin Sen.

They are not creating a bad land, they are creating a bad land that does not look passable.

Ji Lin used his experience to draw multiple marked locations on the map in his hand. This was his experience as an officer. An officer who has not studied the terrain will not be a good officer. All of them are key points on the road, and there are also a lot of bad areas for cover. Wang Qing took this fledgling Xingmai magician to change the terrain.

He went to Zhuji again to confirm.

Not long after, the commander on a fast horse led his team back from the exploration outside the city gate. He shook his head at everyone and saluted Ji Lin.

"Centurion, I have completed the exploration. The way forward...is indeed impassable."

Without Ji Lin's wink, Wang Qing took a step forward.

"What you are transporting is the core of the earth's veins?"

The rangers looked at each other, not knowing what Wang Qing was talking about, but a few soldiers with extensive knowledge and understanding began to lower their voices and talk in general terms.

"We have long-range detection methods to sense the core of the surrounding earth veins, which is the center of the earth vein tower..."

Wang Qing slowly introduced the riders.

When Lin Sen showed the small bagua mechanism box to the rangers, their last doubts were dispelled. No one understands the Leyline Tower better than the holders of these mechanism arts, these star pulse magicians. Everyone respects these... priest-like figures who can make the environment smooth.

This era has never gotten rid of ignorance, but the first batch of star pulse masters and holders of the mechanism skill adhered to their own thoughts and concepts and did not dare to claim that they were descendants of heaven and communicated with gods.

They are a school of thought, and what they practice are only techniques spread within the school.

He also recruits talented people from all over the world, and his skills in mechanical skills and earth-line skills are advancing rapidly.

When these two Mohist disciples were really sure that what the rangers were escorting was the core of the Earth Line, they could only agree with this. They were just well-trained, at most two 놚s higher than ordinary soldiers, and could not compete with the orthodox disciples of the Mohist Family. compared to.

However, the Rangers also learned from Wang Qing's words, and naturally thought that such a precious thing must be transported anonymously.

When Wang Qing saw the Rangers responding and told them his true purpose, he clenched his hands and felt a little excited.

"The Leyline Tower here has collapsed. If the Leyline Tower is not rebuilt in time, it will cause the climate in this area to collapse. We are already contacting senior star line magicians to rebuild a Leyline Tower here. During this period, we need the help of a Leyline Tower. The core forms a stable structure to maintain the stability of the ground in this area.”

Climate collapse is a lie. Some people within their school have already pointed out that the real cause of climate collapse is that they are too subject to the government's dispatch and excessively regulate the weather in certain areas. They excessively change the climate of the region, causing the climate to be unstable. The more unstable the climate, the more Star Vein Magicians are needed to adjust it.

It’s not that they don’t adjust, nor that they don’t pay attention to natural cycles... Human beings can’t understand the full picture of nature. Every time they make a little mistake, they will eventually accumulate into mountains.

In program terms, the program composed of this mountain of shit code was finally overwhelmed by the constant small bugs and was on the verge of collapse.

This year, the newly appointed county magistrate in a certain place needs to increase the production of the towns he governs. In a few years, he feels that the rainfall in a certain place is not enough. In a few years, he even wants to build a new landscape river. This kind of thing is very important to them. The temptation is so great that after using it once, it’s hard to stop.

A vicious cycle begins.

The natural environment is supposed to reach a balance in its operation, but their arbitrary control of the weather will one day cause the entire local system to become unbalanced and out of control.

However, this is used to intimidate soldiers who do not understand the internal theories of their school. Wang Qingzhang has been talking nonsense for a long time.

The rangers looked at Ji Lin, and he nodded gently, indicating that he had discussed with the two of them. The matter was urgent, and the Star Vein Master was also a huge force in this world, so this matter was settled.

Confirming that there was no problem with this matter, he brought the two in from outside just now because they informed him that a natural disaster would occur here.

Now the natural disaster has come true, but since the other party mentioned the core of the earth vein to them, they must have something to ask of them, and they would not do anything without reason.

He brought the two Mohist disciples here to tell the rangers this.

In this way, a complete logical chain was formed. If Ji Lin did not gain the temporary trust of these rangers, he would not be able to take away these military secrets anyway. There was a limit to the force. If they were suspicious, the whole thing would become quite troublesome.

Now even if outsiders come, they will find that their reasons are within everyone's acceptable range, and everyone has found a reasonable "motive".

Hearing this, the rangers had more respect for the officer who was willing to disclose the information they discussed... They had heard too many cases of officers being arbitrary and arbitrary, and officers' tyranny leading to the tragic death of their soldiers was not an isolated case. They rarely saw an unusually significant sense of responsibility from the officer in front of them.

In addition, for the rangers, this officer was airborne, which meant that he was very concerned about him. How could such a person help others for his own benefit? Isn't this just turning his arm outward?

Ji Lin really turned his arm outward. He had no sense of identity with the army here. What responsibility, what inheritance, did not exist.

He would help whoever was right and who had the power to change the world.

His goal was never to be a small officer in the mission world.

When he determined his direction, his thinking direction would be inclined accordingly... Since he didn't know what the future would look like, he would take it one step at a time.

"Everyone, I will bear the losses caused by the delay in the use of the earth vein core here, so you don't have to worry."

Ji Lin smiled at Wang Qing, then turned to the soldiers and said.

"These two gentlemen will need our help in the next few days."

Wang Qing immediately understood.

"Don't worry, we will never let your efforts to help stabilize the local earth veins go to waste. We will definitely nominate one or two for you. I hope you can encourage each other."
