Naturally, he didn't know that the reason why the empire did not eliminate people was because cold machines could not produce the power of order. The meaning of the existence of the people of the empire was to operate completely in accordance with the order of the empire. As long as the power of order was maintained in accordance with the order of the empire,
It was born. This is also the greatest value for the people of the empire after the empire achieves industrial closure.
However, even if Zhao Chenggong knows this, it actually doesn't make sense.
Therefore, Zhao Cheng's thoughts quickly jumped from social structure to the miracle of empire building.
The empire has always been building wonders, building them every day, year after year, never stopping.
The textbook says that the spectacle represents the majesty of the empire and the majesty of the emperor.
The book says so, everyone says so, and it becomes the truth.
But when the dream existed, Zhao Cheng felt something was wrong.
Zhao Cheng didn't know whether there was something wrong with the empire or the world he dreamed of.
Finally, after an unknown amount of time, the wasteland shook, accompanied by severe pain in the wrist. The alarm clock rang. The bracelet on Zhao Cheng's hand released a strong current at this moment, forcibly awakening the person.
The short-term joy ended like this, and a new day began.
Zhao Cheng washed up numbly, walked out of the dormitory numbly, and came to his work station numbly. There was no pause or communication, not just him, but everyone.
All the education and information that everyone has received from their birth to the present has constantly told them that a qualified citizen of the empire should be like this.
As for the doubters, they had already been eliminated by the empire during the long training and rounds of screening, as soon as they showed some signs of success.
Then.
boom!
At noon, an accident occurred. The huge furnace suddenly exploded, and high-temperature molten iron splashed everywhere.
Some people have no way to hide and are roasted in an instant.
The silent atmosphere finally ushered in a short period of noise, but after the noise, it was quickly silenced again.
Zhao Cheng happened to be far away at the time, so he escaped. After that, the incident was forgotten.
Except for a few data changes in the empire's database, other than that, there was no big splash.
During the short period of time when they were unable to start work, Zhao Cheng and others could not be idle. They all wore special instruments to provide emotional power for the empire.
Only during this week, in those short few hours where he could dream, Zhao Cheng fell into deeper confusion and deeper thinking.
"Zhao Cheng, the world shouldn't be like this, and neither should you."
"That's the hero destined to save the world."
"We have traveled a long way, crossed infinite space, and passed through deep darkness before finally arriving here. This wrong world will surely be corrected."
"In the future, the whole world will shout the same name..."
In the wasteland dream, Zhao Cheng heard a sound here for the first time.
It was a very nice voice, with a somewhat childish tone, like that of a child, but it was pretending to be impassioned and seemed a bit nondescript.
Zhao Cheng, who was sitting on the ground, raised his head buried in his thighs and looked at the unexpected visitor in front of him.
It was a girl who looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old, wearing a very gorgeous dress, with silver-white hair, big eyes, and a delicate face. She was so beautiful that it seemed unreal.
Not to mention that in reality, even in the dream with a young man named Zhao Cheng as the protagonist, he had never seen such a good-looking person, not even on TV.
"You can call me Xiaoguang. As for our identity, we are partners, but you obviously have a bad memory and have forgotten it."
"However, these problems are not problems."
"Because I'm here!"
The King of Light put his hands on his hips, as if he was sure to mess with me.
When a normal person encounters something like this, his first reaction will definitely be that this strange person in front of him is talking nonsense.
But Zhao Cheng is not a normal person. As for his current condition, if anyone knew about it, he would definitely be classified as mentally ill.
Therefore, Zhao Cheng asked: "Although it is a bit strange to say saving the world, but what should we do?!"
"Well, let me think about it."
The King of Light was lost in thought at this moment, and his whole performance was very unprofessional and unreliable.
"First we need knowledge, knowledge can bring power."
"Then we'll find a few more companions."
"Finally, stimulate your potential and beat the emperor to death, that's all."
"Beat the emperor to death?!"
"You actually have such thoughts!"
"This is too crazy!"
…
Zhao Cheng woke up, woke up in reality. Since he mastered the technique of segmenting memories, he has not woken up in reality for a long time. He only wakes up in dreams when he is dreaming.
The Lord of Light used a little trick to briefly separate him from reality. Everyone, even the surveillance cameras, would ignore him.
Zhao Cheng only felt that he was probably crazy for actually listening to a strange girl he had just met and planning to save the world.
Three days later, Zhao Cheng arrived. He was not qualified to enter the Imperial Library. The knowledge he needed existed here.
According to the King of Light, it is some forbidden knowledge, which contains inspiration, gestures, rituals... and other kinds of knowledge that the empire is unwilling to spread but cannot destroy.
Because for civilization, the knowledge in the library is also part of the thickness of civilization. It can be hidden, but it cannot be eliminated.
"Xiaoguang, do you know where to put the things we are looking for?!"
Zhao Cheng looked at the vast collection of books and asked this most critical question.
"I'm not an encyclopedia, how can I know this kind of thing?!"
The King of Light asked back.
"Then what should we do?!"
The two people looked at each other with big eyes at this moment.
In the past few days, Zhao Cheng has deviated from his original trajectory. After embracing freedom, his entire mental state has completely changed.
He also knew that if he was discovered by the empire, he would definitely be canned and life would be worse than death. However, he was not afraid. As for why, he probably just wasn't afraid. He didn't need a reason.
"Maybe we can find someone we know to help."
The King of Light thought for a long time and finally had an idea.
Ten days later, in the Imperial Library, Belvia looked at the two animals in front of her, one large and one small, and said unhurriedly: "What is it that gives you the illusion that I, a stranger, will help you?"
?!"
"It is already a huge stain for someone without qualifications to come to the library. Prying into forbidden knowledge is even more of a stain among stains. If you leave now, I can consider not informing the Imperial Knights later."
