Chapter 1227 Helplessness (first update)

Soon the two came to the ruins area of ​​the Dusk Base.

Su Mo looked at the crowded and bustling area in front of him and was amazed, so he asked Lin Ming.

"Is this really the Dark Twilight Base?"

"Yeah?"

Lin Ming responded doubtfully.

"I remember wasn't this place abandoned by the City of Stars? Why is it so lively?"

"That was before, but now it's because there are mining areas, and there are profits to be made. Naturally, this place has become prosperous again. Now this is a paradise for adventurers. There is a saying that if you just pick up a piece of ore here and bring it back, you can live a lifetime of food and clothing. ”

Lin Ming explained briefly to Su Mo.

"It's a bit exaggerated, but many people must have become rich here."

Su Mo said with some emotion.

"That's about it. Come on, let me go in. The Federation has occupied an area inside and transformed it into an office area."

"Okay."

Soon after, Su Mo and Lin Ming returned to the office area.

Lin Ming ordered the people below to get some food and a few bottles of beer.

He opened a bottle of beer and handed it to Su Mo. "Drink some low-intensity wine to relieve stress. Don't drink high-intensity wine. After all, it's not very safe here. People should always stay awake."


"Well, that's good. By the way, do you often conflict with the Machine Empire?"

Su Mo picked it up and chatted.

"Not often. Although we are newcomers, we are not stupid. We know what kind of existence the Machinery Empire is. Those who can give in will definitely give in, but they do not give in every time. How can such a high-level mining area give in? Although Ceres There are resources everywhere, but There are not many areas that can be mined, because sometimes it is not expensive to mine low-level areas, and high-level mining areas are either within the range of natural disasters or occupied by high-level monsters, so every mining point is very important.”

Lin Ming said with some emotion.

Su Mo also sighed when he heard this, and he said to Lin Ming: "Actually, I did my best on this matter today, and I also want to kill that guy. But I can't just be happy for a while, otherwise there will be endless troubles. Say something. Realistically speaking, the Machinery Empire is indeed stronger than us. It is very realistic that they have the capital to clamor like this. After all, they have been hanging out with the Star Ring City for so many years longer than us.”


"You don't need to say it. I already know all this. Is there something wrong with Su Moqian coming here? Do you need my help?"

Lin Ming sighed, changed the subject and asked.

"No, it's just a small matter. I can handle it myself."

Su Mo waved his hand and replied.

"That's fine."

Lin Ming originally wanted to tell Su Mo to pay attention to his safety. But then he thought of his pet and swallowed the words that came to his lips.

Su Mo raised the bottle and touched it with Lin Ming. After taking a few sips of wine, he continued chatting with Lin Ming.

"Brother Lin Ming, have you had any contact with your family recently? How are your parents?"

"Yes, I contacted them once not long ago. My parents are doing very well, nothing happened, it's just"

Lin Ming was hesitant when he said this.

"Just what?"

"Hey, it's just that the situation within the Federation has been a bit unstable recently, and there have been large-scale protests. Now the Parliament is very worried about this, and I heard that there have been several conflicts. Now my father is busy with this matter every day."

"What's going on?"

Su Mo was also puzzled.

"What else can happen? It's mainly about class and wealth. Let me give you an analogy. In fact, our current civilization is developing at an extremely fast speed. It's not an exaggeration to encourage growth. Even we sometimes feel that we are too fast. They can’t keep up with the times, let alone those at the bottom. In fact, the situation at the bottom is very bad. Their labor force is worthless and they are always struggling to survive.”

Lin Ming explained to Su Mo.

Su Mo frowned when he heard this. He suddenly remembered the post he saw on the forum before, and he said to Lin Ming.

"Where is the parliament? Didn't the speaker of the parliament give a solution?"

"The Parliament has been arguing over this matter. For this reason, the Speaker of the Arles Council proposed a plan called the Warm Winter Plan, which allows the Federation to withdraw a large amount of Star Coins to subsidize the lower classes. At the same time, it will create various jobs for them. Unfortunately, this plan was rejected by the Parliament. Three times.”

When Lin Ming said this, he picked up the wine bottle and took a sip, and said in a deep voice.

"Why? The Federation's current finances should be very good, right?"

Su Mo was also slightly startled.

"The finances are good, but there are many places to spend money. Many members of the Federal Parliament are unwilling to implement this warm winter plan. There are two reasons they gave. One is that large-scale subsidies will create inertia and the atmosphere will be Not very good.”

"Isn't this nonsense? This is the first subsidy."

"You are right. In fact, this reason is easy to refute, but the next reason is very troublesome. A large number of congressmen believe that the federation is now in a state of rapid development. If funds are now diverted to improve the bottom layer, then the federation will take off. It will be left behind in the big trend and will miss the golden development period and be weaker than other countries. Degree, this is not only related to future status, but also related to the life and death of the entire federation. Moreover, they also pointed out that this class fault phenomenon is not only present in the federation, but also in all countries. It is even more serious in the imperial army. If we don’t do that, wouldn’t we be binding our own feet?”

Lin Ming probably explained it to Su Mo.

After Su Mo heard this, his head hurt a little. The second reason was really hard to refute.

"Hey"

"Forget it, let's eat."

Lin Ming also had a headache the more he thought about it.

A few hours later, Su Mo said goodbye to Lin Ming after eating and left the Dark Mu Base.

He returned to the area where the Light of the Sin Abyss rested.

From a distance, he saw Domac lying next to the mecha, taking a good look at the mecha.

Su Mo looked at this scene and suddenly felt that this guy was quite easy to control.

Then Su Mo walked over.

When Domac saw Su Mo coming, he quickly got up and screamed at Su Mo.

Su Mo nodded to it and climbed onto the mecha.

"Let's go!"

More than ten days later, in an area of ​​rugged land.

Su Mo stopped while driving the Light of Sin Abyss.

The sky in the distance is filled with dark clouds, and the internal clouds are constantly rotating like a whirlpool, with lightning and thunder, as if the end is coming.

Domac kept chirping in the distance, seeming a little uneasy.

"Hey! Did we go the wrong way, Xiaoqi? According to the map drawn by Tiram, there should be continuous giant mountains here. Let alone the mountains now, we didn't even see the shadow of a mountain. And good Either way, a huge storm is coming. ”

Su Mo sighed slightly. (End of chapter)
