I can find treasures in my dreams.

Aulong Administrative District.

Inside the main hall of the Ocean Blue Heart Center.

Facing the gazes of tens of thousands of people, Yang Fan continued to speak eloquently: "Ms. Zhao Xiaoying not only advanced to the rank of Knight, but also recently successfully advanced to the middle rank in her first superpower."

"This is a very important matter for the Azure Civilization, as it means that the civilization has mastered a method for training knights."

The Azure people in the auditorium didn't react much to these words.

However, a group of foreign guests from other civilizations suddenly became quite agitated.

Because the theory of "knight training method" does exist, mastering a knight training method means that knights can be trained in large numbers.

This is not something that can be mastered casually.

For example, the Ironfist Civilization, an "old friend" of the Azure Civilization, has been around for many years and has trained five knights, but still has not mastered this method and can only rely on individual abilities.

Not only the Iron Fist Civilization, but nearly 60% of the civilized world is unable to master the knight training method.

For a civilized world, the knight training method represents a significant step forward in the civilization's foundation.

Given enough time, we can eventually join the ranks of "powerful civilizations".

The Azure Civilization has only been around for less than twenty years, yet it has mastered the method of training knights. How could the many foreign guests not be surprised?
Yang Fan then announced a major personnel change: "The second chief of the SUPP, Ge Jingtang, will retire soon, and Ms. Zhao Xiaoying will take over the position of second chief and be responsible for more SUPP affairs."

Ha Xiaolin immediately knew that this must be Mr. Lingya laying the groundwork for "Commander Zhao to become the next chief".

When Mr. Lingya steps down in the future, it will be only natural for the Second Chief to take over as Chief.

The girl turned to her friend and asked a gossipy question via telepathy: "Wan Yu, why did the second commander suddenly retire?"

As far as she knew, the second-in-command was a high-ranking official of the Great Xia Dynasty before the era of natural disasters. He was over 80 years old this year. Nowadays, the average life expectancy in the Great Xia Dynasty is over 110 years old. This age is not considered old. He could easily serve for another ten years.

Ha Xiaolin knew that most people wouldn't know the inside story, but her friend was the daughter of the richest man in the People's Federation, so she must know it very well.

Yang Wanyu did not hide anything: "Actually, Ge Jingtang himself is not a big problem, but he has too many disciples and old friends. A few people have done a lot of bad things under Ge Jingtang's name, so Mr. Lingya simply made Ge Jingtang step down."

Ha Xiaolin said "Oh," and then said, "I see."

She understood that Ge Jingtang was naturally unwilling to step down, after all, the Second Chief of the People's Alliance held enormous power. However, Mr. Lingya's prestige was unparalleled, and no one dared to disobey his every word.

Yang Fan's voice continued: "To celebrate the Azure Civilization's successful survival of the Thunderstorm Disaster and Ms. Zhao Xiaoying's promotion to Knight, I hereby announce that the Human Alliance will have two days off."

Ha Xiaolin sighed upon hearing this.

Including "Ms. Zhao Xiaoying's promotion to Knight" as a reason for the leave is undoubtedly paving the way for Zhao Xiaoying to take over, which also means that Mr. Lingya is eager to step down and then do something more important.

The commotion in the auditorium grew more pronounced, and it was clear that many people had come to this realization.

Ha Xiaolin remembered something and decided to use her smart glasses to check the stock market.

As expected, the stocks of Tianxing Group and its numerous subsidiaries, as well as related holding companies, all began to rise, demonstrating the capital market's consistently sharp reaction.

The girl looked at her friend and laughed, then whispered, "Wan Yu, your family has struck it rich."

Even if so many stocks only rise by 10%, it would still be an astronomical sum of wealth.

Yang Wanyu rolled her eyes: "Boring!"

On the podium.

Yang Fan made another "press down" gesture, and the central auditorium instantly returned to silence.

He looked around and changed the subject: "As you all know, an unusual phenomenon suddenly appeared in the sky above Hope City today, which disappeared after a very short time."

Many people nodded. Yang Fan then dropped a bombshell: "I can tell you all very clearly that this is a very bad omen."

"Based on my personal observations and the results of exchanges with other civilizations, the primordial world is entering a historical period in which natural disasters are becoming more frequent."

"For a considerable period of time in the future, perhaps decades, or even hundreds of years, the primordial world will experience more intense natural disasters."

"For any civilized world, this will be an extremely severe test, and the people of Canglan must be prepared to meet the challenge."

An uproar erupted in the auditorium.

Ha Xiaolin couldn't help but mutter, "No wonder Mr. Lingya is in such a hurry to find a successor."

Yang Wanyu glanced at her friend and revealed a piece of information that most people wouldn't know: "My father said that the root cause of the changes in the primordial world lies in the abnormal leakage of deep laws."

Ha Xiaolin blinked: "What do you mean by 'abnormal leakage of deep laws'?"

Yang Wanyu shook her head and said, "I don't understand either."

On stage.

Yang Fan raised his voice: "In order to deal with the enormous crisis threatening the Canglan civilization and all Canglan people, I, in the name of the Chief Commander of the Human Alliance, announce that the Human Alliance will carry out a comprehensive expansion of its military."

"Currently, the UN has a total of 3.5 million members in the Blue Sky Defense Force, and in the next year, the defense force will be gradually expanded to 7 million members."

There is a saying in Daxia: "When the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact." I encourage eligible people in all administrative regions to join the army. This is not only to realize their own life value, but also to protect their homeland.

Yang Fan concluded his speech with the last sentence: "Alright, that's all I wanted to say. Please don't leave, there will be a buffet dinner later. Have a pleasant evening."

Since he became the chief of the People’s League, a buffet has been a tradition at every event.

"Wow~"

A round of enthusiastic applause erupted.

Although many people were clapping enthusiastically, their expressions were quite serious.

Everyone knows that Mr. Lingya's speech marks the arrival of a new era.

For the people of Canglan, this will be an even more difficult era.

Ha Xiaolin whispered, "We witnessed history today."

The words just finished.

A message suddenly popped up on the girl's smart glasses interface.

She paused for a moment, then blurted out, "My dad is planning to enlist in the army."

Because the UN chief's speech was broadcast live worldwide, and most people around the world watched it, her father also learned about the full-scale military expansion.

Ha Xiaolin wanted to stop her father, but after hesitating for a moment, she finally gave up the idea of ​​dissuading him.

Because Mr. Lingya is right, when the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact. This is a disaster that all mankind faces. My father is not yet forty years old and is of military age.

Knowing her friend's worries, Yang Wanyu smiled and comforted her, "I estimate there will be many applicants, and your father may not be selected."

She paused for a moment, then said softly, "I'm also planning to enlist in the army."

Ha Xiaolin was taken aback: "You haven't graduated yet."

Yang Wanyu said in a nonchalant tone, "After I joined the army, I can complete my studies in my spare time, so it has no impact at all."

She understood perfectly well that as the eldest daughter of the richest man in the Human Federation, she had to set an example in the face of this crisis concerning all of humanity. (End of Chapter)
