Seizing the BOSS Template at the Start

Chapter 391 - 211: At Your Command, Victory Will Be Ours!

The immense public opinion was growing more intense.

Each major City Lord had voiced their opinions, nearly all following the public opposition, while those who remained silent might either support or be neutral.

This was not important.

The Transcendents, small families, water armies, and especially the railroad family led by Fatty Luo, who built more than half of the Federation railway, had begun to request the Federation to capture Baiyi and abolish this terrifying law.

After all, the reason train fares could be kept to about 50 Copper Coins per station, affordable for everyone, was due to the extremely cheap labor.

If the law were to be fully implemented, train fares would have to rise, and significantly so.

As soon as prices increase, the trains, which were already on the brink of collapse, would completely fall. After all, with teleportation arrays now in existence, the trains’ target market was only the common folk.

If prices increase... the common people won’t be willing to spend.

They did not know if this was Dongwu City’s intention or the council’s decision.

Now, the council’s and the Law Enforcement Hall’s silence was causing unease among these individuals.

A mobile phone costs 3 to 5 Gold Coins, representing that the common people could not access the internet.

But although common people and Transcendents are entirely two different classes, as long as a Transcendent is not alone, they would share this matter with their family.

And their family would always have some friends, like a spark in the prairie, the common people’s shock and cheers instantly echoed throughout the entire Federation.

After all, they couldn’t tell whether it was a policy of Dongwu City or their own city.

They were just hoping to wake up tomorrow to witness the scene of their dreams.

"That’s the way it is."

The Guard Brigade laughed and said, "Brothers, we’re familiar with this, the important thing is, a reading completion rate of 10 Copper Coins, though there aren’t many Transcendents in the Dawn Federation with internet access, just think about it, one hundred million views is ten thousand Gold Coins, that’s three hundred thousand!"

"I know, I know, the Federation’s total online users are just 150 million, but even a million views is a hundred Gold Coins, that’s three thousand bucks! Just look at other players’ posts, is a million a lot?"

"Now there’s such high attention on this matter, it’s just like penning short essays! Although there’s a great disparity between Transcendents and common people, most Transcendents rose through the ranks with the help of their common parents and grandparents, I just don’t believe they have no conscience whatsoever."

"Alright, not to delay everyone from making money, there’s one more thing, Dongwu City is about to start a war, and it’s expected to be the grandest one, brothers who want to return should hurry up."

After finishing, the Guard Brigade turned off the live stream.

He’s not the only one like this, some other streamers he knows, like Demacia or Xiahou Fuxing who finally wrapped up filming after a few months, are similar.

Light appeared in the Guard Brigade’s eyes, he immediately posted his composed short essay online.

Instantly, a flood of short essays surged forth, players who did not participate in the war bit the bullet and bought phones, forming a vast and professional water army at once.

The overwhelming public opinion was instantly blocked, the players’ short essays easily resonated, and even some players’ staged short videos went viral on the Dawn network immediately.

The multitude of opinions kept Sunu, who had long been prepared, extremely busy, though he had already upgraded the network.

Now he must find a way to upgrade again...

Council.

"Do you know what this represents?" Patriarch Luo Wa calmly asked Diane, "This is not a place for young people to fall in love, without massive financial backing for this decision, many people will die."

"And once that era arrives, without pressure, many common people might think it’s good to just live peacefully for a lifetime. And among these ideas might be a top potential genius."

"They would sink into peace."

Patriarch Luo Wa glanced around, his tone was a sure statement, "Not only that, in the world you envisioned, adventurers and soldiers would decrease, and without such a massive base of adventurers, the various materials in the Federation would drastically reduce, and the monetary system would also be impacted."

"Have you thought about all these?"

Diane nodded, "Of course I have, why must adventurers be those Low-tier Transcendents?"

A smile appeared on her face, "Not to mention whether the adventurers would decrease, even if they do, then clusters of Hunting Teams like military merit systems across Border Cities would be a significant economic income for those cities."

"And these revenues could improve city development, perhaps you haven’t seen what Dongwu City looks like now."

Diane raised her hand, and in the dark mist behind her, the futuristic Inner City District of Dongwu City appeared.

The electronic screens standard in shops, the various lights, the logos occasionally appearing on the ground, and even traffic signals and holographic displayed products.

Everything looked sci-fi and beautiful, and even the Outer City District, built partly, was admirable.

"I wonder if you remember what Dongwu City looked like two years ago." Diane first apologized with a smile to Eric’s projection, then waved her hand.

The image from two years ago of Dongwu City she remembered appeared, dramatically contrasting the two scenes.

Seeing it, Eric felt a pang in his heart, perhaps he really is not suited for city development...

"Though Dongwu Finance Officer is quite criticized, there’s no denying the financial power significantly strengthens a city."
