Chapter 1938: Star Ring Era
While Lu Ping'an and his group were still fighting hard in the evolving world, the Earth itself was also not idle.
Those who return to their planet probably already have a feeling that they have taken the wrong path when they first look at their home planet.
“Is this still Earth?”
"What's that outer ring? Have housing prices risen to the point where we need to build houses in outer space?"
"Don't talk nonsense. There are gods living here. You can't afford the house prices here."
The technology of the sky elevator and satellite ring is originally quite advanced, but with the help of mechanical creatures flying in the sky, divine angels, rule-level powerhouses, and the Ship of God, there is actually no technical barrier.
Even if you have extraordinary strength, you can still force your way over it.
"What? You said that the sky environment glue is unreliable. Use the concept of 'link' to put it together."
"The metal is not strong enough. Try 'Fantasy Metal of the Void'. We have several gods who are good at smelting."
"Is it difficult to get the materials into the air without a rocket? Just find a righteous god, use the kingdom of God to teleport, and ask the messenger of God to help deliver the goods."
So, during the half year that Lu Ping'an was fighting in a foreign land, two intersecting space metal rings and at least thirty space elevators had been built around the earth.
A large amount of supplies and guard forces were sent up to the starry sky, and even several alien special zones were established on the star ring, and the entry inspections were no longer on the surface.
And in the sky, between the surface and the sky belt, there are aerospace planes, angels, and flying monsters constantly coming and going, and there are prosperous transportation and construction scenes everywhere.
The times seem completely different.
".The last battle between gods and gods scared everyone. It was a war that almost destroyed the planet and the race."
The traces of plane wars are not so easy to eliminate. Even if the gods above gods are successfully expelled and the wounds of foreign invasions are filled one by one, the fear and anxiety left in the depths of people's hearts cannot be reconciled.
"The world was almost destroyed."
“Several countries in East Asia have completely disappeared.”
"Australia is still a magical land, or in other words, a foreign land with nothing in it."
Disaster is in front of everyone, and those who finally have some free time receive only bad news.
An area has been cleared, a friend has died in battle, an ethnic group has been wiped out, and certain industries have become history.
It is very bad, extremely bad. The economic and social situation is so bad that it has caused a large number of secondary disasters.
If it weren't for the existence of gods who could greatly interfere with the real world, for example, the life system brought a huge amount of food, the food and energy crisis alone would be able to reduce the population by another 30%.
After the war, many things naturally came to the negotiating table.
This included the so-called Earth Government. Originally intended as a framework and an ideal, it was quickly implemented a year later.
Although it is still a long way from being a real physical political system, it has undergone a qualitative change from the original so-called liaison and coordination organization where "everyone argued around the same table."
In a sense, it is a bit like the United Nations in another timeline. At least, transnational organizations that integrate resources and formulate norms have begun to be established. Multinational coordination or at least multinational communication has inevitably increased. The most important thing is that the military agencies have begun to integrate to a certain extent.
During the time when Lu Ping'an was away, the two biggest news were the globalization of the "righteous God system".
Although it's a bit far-fetched, before, it was true that only the East Country of Earth had registered authentic gods. This means that divine power is under sovereignty and must be used and adjusted within the scope of management. This means that if the official says you are a god, then you are a god, otherwise you are an evil monster who confuses the public with lies.
Why is it being promoted globally? It’s actually just a simple report.
"In this world-destroying crisis, the escape rate of the Eastern Gods is the lowest among the first-tier gods. At the same time, they also made the greatest contribution to the war."
This is the reality. On the one hand, they are highly bound, and on the other hand, they are restricted and even controlled in all aspects, forcing the righteous gods to fight for the survival of the East Country and even the planet.
Today, there are more than 700 true gods and 2,900 registered first-level gods on this planet.
Obviously, taking advantage of the lull after the war, humans integrated and controlled their own high-level combat forces. In this process, secondary and tertiary deserters were inevitable, but overall, the amount of god-level combat forces that could be mobilized at least doubled.
The second piece of news is about the global popularization of transcendence. One thing we have to mention is the trading place left by Lu. It has always been effective. Among the seven currently confirmed methods of becoming a 100% professional, it is the most cost-effective and most suitable for the "poor".
Every day, people travel thousands of miles to the trading place in the East Country, exchanging their lives for the opportunity to become a professional without risking their lives.
The desperate survivors after the war longed for power, or at least, were unwilling to endure the purgatory of waiting for doomsday in the dark.
Yes, it is one of the seven sure ways to become a professional. Lu Ping'an is not the only special person in this world. The power systems such as "making a wish", "magic potion" and "eternity" may all make it possible to cross that level.
In fact, all countries have been conducting research. After all, making everyone extraordinary is equivalent to using all human resources, which is a huge temptation that cannot be refused.
However, previous attempts were either too costly or too difficult to control, and were not considered high-quality. Lu Ping'an's "trading place" was not even the earliest. It was just the earliest one that was controlled by someone in some country in a relatively specific area.
Now, when the trading grounds have started to produce large numbers of extraordinary people at a relatively "cheap" price, there is no need to hide even the "unique secret manuals".
Some require a lot of resources, some require huge amounts of money, some even require the dedication of others, and some ritual processes are comparable to large-scale pyramid schemes. The trading place on Lu Ping An's side is the most cost-effective and fair. After all, everyone has a lifespan.
In the days when Lu Ping'an was not around, the times were also rushing forward.
It can be said that the people on Earth are afraid, or it can be said that they are preparing for the next plane war.
After surviving this disaster, there is indeed a rare period of development, which can often last for decades or even hundreds of years. But the reality is not a game. No one can guarantee that the next test will not come suddenly, and no one can bear the possibility of experiencing a second full-scale plane war without any preparation.
"is that useful?"
"Maybe"
So, when Lu and his companions returned after a month's journey, what they saw was this massive star ring.
This is the planet's defense system. Whether it is the standardization of the righteous gods or the popularization of the extraordinary, it is a tendency for the entire planet to begin to prepare for a plane war.
But in the eyes of Lu Ping'an and others, this kind of star ring is quite subtle.
"This level of planetary defense can defend against the enemy, and it will not cause any harm to the ground. For an enemy that can cause a world crisis, this kind of defense will only create some space junk. The biggest effect is probably to make the people on Earth feel that they are protected."
Lu Ping'an's slightly sarcastic words received silent nods from his companions. It was not surprising that people who had truly experienced top-level wars between gods would have such collective cognition.
"Yes, the main purpose of the Star Ring is to make people feel protected."
The local representative who came to pick us up at the airport also said the same thing, which was very subtle.
