Chapter 1308: Expansion Tablet


"It turns out that the so-called 'nine-nine-six' working system has caused such great harm to ordinary people.

It is simply not a life for human beings!"

"The entire economic system operates on the basis of high welfare.

If drastic reforms are carried out rashly, it will indeed cause great turmoil in the lives of ordinary people.

On the economic statements, they are just rows of numbers that can weigh the pros and cons and make sacrifices at any time. , but in real life, they are real people, people with emotions and desires, who can complain and even resist!

" "Going to mine on the resource planet on the border of the Star Sea, you have to face endless darkness for many years, and the threat of a high mortality rate.

Every ton of crystals mined is stained with blood.

No wonder most Panlong people are frowning!

" "The Panlong Civilization has not developed much star sea navigation technology for thousands of years.

It is too difficult to build a star sea fleet from scratch!

Ordinary people may not be able to see the obvious results after ten or twenty years of frugal living.

The progress is like wandering in the dark night, never seeing the direction of dawn, no one can stand it!

" When Long Yunxin saw that the character she played had changed from a young, beautiful and energetic girl to a haggard, wrinkled face, and was overwhelmed by the burden of life, she couldn't help but feel extremely entangled in her heart. idea.

This girl was born in the "golden age" before resources were scarce.

She grew up in a honeypot.

She was innocent and carefree, taking all the happiness and joy in life for granted.

However, just three days after she got married to her equally innocent and kind-hearted husband, the government announced that Panlong Civilization had entered the "Glorious March" era, which would drastically cut benefits, extend working hours, force savings and purchase national bonds, and all citizens tightened their grip. belt, to support the construction of the Star Sea Fleet.

When Long Yunxin saw this, he felt quite guilty.

Because of the same policy, she had issued it several times when she was serving as the supreme governor.

At that time, she looked at the future of Panlong Civilization from a high-level position and had an overall overall attitude, but she never thought about what such a change would mean to ordinary people.

After entering the "Glory March" era, she played this ordinary woman with a dragon, and her exquisite glass house-like life was ruthlessly shattered.

The working hours have been greatly extended, but the salary has been reduced by half.

Even this pitiful half must be divided into another half and forced to be stored in a designated account of the "Xinghai Development Bank" for a period of ten years.

If you want to withdraw it within ten years, Not only will there be no interest, but the principal will be reduced by a large amount!

A large amount of resources have been invested in the construction of the Star Sea Fleet.

Prices in society have skyrocketed, currencies have depreciated, and people are panicking.

Inflation and economic crises would break out every two or three years, and in the end strict rationing had to be implemented to barely stabilize the situation.

The veil of tenderness between her and her husband was soon torn to pieces by the harsh reality.

Her husband, who had been drained of his blood and sweat in the factory during the day, became more and more silent, more and more sensitive, and more and more difficult to approach.

Their marriage and their family relationship are on the verge of collapse.

One day, bad news came from the outside world.

The latest mining starship, which cost a huge amount of money to build, once again declared a test failure.

The resources that tightened the belts of countless people and transported them out in the big explosion were all wasted!

People finally couldn't restrain their anger and took to the streets to protest, including Long Yunxin's "husband"!

Long Yunxin knew that the company her "husband" worked for was facing bankruptcy due to shortage of raw materials.

He was in a very bad mood these days.

Occasionally he would face the wall with his eyes straight and mutter to himself.

Long Yun was worried and took to the streets, calling her husband's name loudly in the crowded crowd.

Suddenly there was a hot air wave in front, and a thick black smoke steamed up!

Along with a burst of heart-rending exclamations, Long Yunxin heard the scream of crystal bombs tearing the air.

It was the last sound she heard in this game.

"ah!"

Long Yunxin suddenly woke up from the game.

At some point, he broke away from the mentality of a bystander and completely fell into it.

She seemed to have just escaped from a nightmare.

She gasped for nearly a minute before her heartbeat gradually calmed down.

However, as she filtered through the details of ordinary people's lives one by one, her breathing became rapid again.

Because she discovered that wasn't this exactly the story of when she played the second game, from suppression to massacre?

"I see, everything I am experiencing now as an ordinary person was all caused by me!"

Long Yun secretly pondered the true meaning of the game "Civilization".

She doesn't like business simulations and strategy battles, but she's not averse to role-playing.

Next, she played more than a dozen different characters in the Panlong Civilization, but they all had one thing in common: they were all little people and ordinary people who followed the crowd.

Among them is the union chairman who is working hard to win more rights for his members. and the rank-and-file soldiers of the army who participated in the repression and massacre.

There are also miners who went to the resource planets on the edge of the Star Sea to mine, but died tragically deep in the mines due to accidents, leaving no trace of their bodies.

There are also the closest relatives of these miners who died.

The more he came into contact with the bottom and corners of Panlong Civilization's society, the more tangled and complicated Long Yunxin's mentality became.

"The resources on a planet are limited.

If you want civilization to continue to thrive, you must jump out of the planet!"

"However, jumping out of the planet is not easy.

It is very likely to waste decades of time, consume astronomical amounts of resources, and stage tragedies in countless families, but in the end it will be nothing!"

"If a civilization wants to develop, it is too difficult, not even talking about development, just to survive in the sea of ​​stars, too difficult, too difficult!"

Long Yunxin was filled with emotion.

She originally wanted to choose more civilizations and try the life of ordinary people in the Yaoxia world, the Wuying world, and even the Shaman world.

However, a line of small golden words appeared at the bottom of the main interface, attracting her attention.

It seems that during the game just now, she met some specific trigger conditions and opened a new module of the game.

This module is an expansion pack for the Civilization game called "Rise of Empires".

Above these five large characters made of steel and faintly smelling of gunpowder smoke, there is also a black lightning battle flag that blocks out the sky and the sun.

Under the battle flag, is a black silhouette of a helmet and armor.

In recent years, some rumors about the True Human Empire have spread in the streets and alleys of the Three Realms.

Including the rise of the Black Star Emperor, there are dozens of versions of the story flying all over the sky.

Long Yunxin immediately guessed that this expansion film should tell the story of Wu Yingqi's rise step by step after coming to the Star Sea Republic, stealing the highest power, and finally ascending to the throne and proclaiming himself emperor, establishing the true human empire.

Sure enough, the introduction to the expansion pack mentioned that "Rise of the Empire" is a brand new world derived from the huge database and computing power of "Civilization".

The main map is concentrated in the Star Sea Republic, the most prosperous area in the human world.

Players can freely choose the role they play.

They can be members of the Parliament of the Star Sea Republic, the leader of a large sect with a long history, a general of the Central Army guarding the capital, an indigenous leader of a semi-independent world on the border... in different identities. , to accelerate, delay, support or prevent the emergence of a true human empire.

Of course, if you are willing, you can also directly play Wu Yingqi himself and experience the black rise from the perspective of the "Black Star Emperor".

But now, most of the functional modules are still being improved, and all the above identities have not yet been implemented.

There are only a few roles that testers can play.

Long Yunxin randomly selected one from a list of unremarkable names, and the light and shadow flashed before his eyes, as if he had appeared in a whole new world.

A large amount of information flowed into the depths of her brain.

She is an ordinary citizen of the Star Sea Republic, and her husband is a senior mine tunnel structure expert.

Ten years ago, she followed her husband to settle down on this small resource planet.

She worked in the primary school attached to the mining area and gave birth to two very cute babies, a son and a daughter.

Her life was warm and peaceful, as if It would be nice to stay like this forever.

The war shattered their peaceful lives.

The resource planet was occupied by the menacing enemy.

Our own headquarters that was originally set up here hurriedly evacuated, but civilians like them were left here.

They did not give up their resistance, and many young and middle-aged soldiers and civilians got into the intricate mine tunnels and persisted in fighting, defending the dignity of the Star Sea Republic in vain.

Although her husband did not directly join the underground resistance forces, he provided help to the resistance forces with his professional knowledge and risked his life by using their home as a secret meeting place for the resistance forces.

The game invested a lot of computing power and rendering special effects in this unknown little character's story, creating a world where it is difficult to distinguish between true and false, which gave Long Yun a sense of both fantasy and reality.

She seemed to "see" herself holding her daughter and holding her son, pretending to take a walk in front of her home, but she was actually looking out for members of the resistance organization at home.

She could even clearly feel her own mixed feelings of tension, worry, anger, and hatred, which could not be described in words.

"Will the enemy discover the existence of the resistance organization?

If they are discovered, how will they retaliate against us?"

"Will our army come back?"

"It doesn't matter to me, but can my son and daughter return to the embrace of the motherland and grow up safely and healthily?"

Long Yunxin completely put himself into the game character, thinking worriedly.

At this moment, she suddenly felt the earth tremble slightly, and then smelled a strong burnt smell.

Hundreds of blue arcs shot out on the horizon, like ten thousand electric arcs filled with electricity.

Thunderous volcanoes erupted at the same time!

She saw countless enemy starships taking off hastily, and before they could break through the gravitational circle, they were overtaken, torn and shattered by arcs of electricity!

But before she had time to cheer, the thunder and lightning turned into an overwhelming wave that swept across the entire planet, engulfing all enemies, resistance fighters, and civilians including her and her two children without discrimination!

Long Yunxin struggled out of the game again.

His whole body was as cold as a dead person, except for the sharp collision of his teeth, which made a "click" sound.

She knew who she was playing.

He was one of the eight million civilians who were "sacrificed" by the Black Star Emperor in the "Battle of Kallan".
