Two hundred and eighty-fifth meeting
This conference venue with great significance is not a gorgeous palace as imagined by the outside world. It would be fine to build a high platform directly, but there was still no seat on it. Except for the raised speech table in the middle, everything else was a flat ground with no seats.
This made the delegates who were used to meetings feel very uncomfortable, but no one raised any objections. They gathered here. It was for the division of interests, not for these nonsense treatments. Although they were not very adaptable, it didn't matter.
After Li Taixi came to the stage, the audience's eyes were focused on him. A person with such powerful combat power as the 83rd-level spiritual veins in the Development Department has been the target of close monitoring by almost all intelligence departments for two months.
Now, this legendary figure has truly appeared in public for the first time. Although this very ordinary face disappointed many people a little, it did not stop them from being curious about Li Taixi.
It doesn't matter if he is able to create a character from the Taishang Dao team, even if he is a hundred times worse than now. Although it is still very popular and has a good view of people's appearance, no one can deny it. Now strength is the king.
The man who relies on his face to make a living has begun to change accordingly. The great changes in the entire era, and the distorted values of the past have been completely destroyed, and even a little bit of scum is left.
Nowadays, there are many people who are eager to rely on music or other so-called literary and artistic activities to gain support from the public, but now people are not stupid and will not try their best to support you just by a few songs.
Even if there are a few bands with good reputations that become popular in the city with some songs, after stepping down, when facing the attacks of demons and monsters, no one will give any different treatments just because of a few songs.
After getting off the stage and taking off all their glorious and beautiful skin, they are just ordinary people. Only people with strong spiritual veins can get more respect. Strength is the only condition to maintain a life to survive in this world.
After a few minutes, the two pointers of the clock placed on the speech stage all came to the middle, and a dull bell rang from all directions. But in the distance, with the high platform in the middle as the center, almost at the same distance, there was a huge bronze bell placed at the points at the same distance.
In front of each bronze bell, two spiritual veins were carrying a huge copper-headed wooden stick, hitting the big bell at an extremely slow frequency. Every time it hit, it would make a huge sound, echoing the other three bells.
The bell, which is once every five seconds on average, hit twelve consecutively. When the last bell rang, a pointer on the clock on the high platform also jumped over a square. The bell stopped, and both on the high platform and the surrounding area were shrouded in a solemn atmosphere.
Hu Ke, who was in a high altitude, clearly saw that thousands of spiritual veins were closely guarding this venue in the surrounding area to prevent any spiritual veins or other creatures from invading. In the further place, where the vision could not reach, more spiritual veins were surging, blocking all life that wanted to enter this area.
Under the influence of this atmosphere, it seemed that even the sound of the wind had quieted down, and everyone tried their best to suppress their breathing, fearing that they would disturb something.
After a while of silence, Bai Yan, who was the host of the conference, slowly walked onto the platform in the middle.
A one-meter-high platform, even if there are nearly a thousand people gathered on this platform, it can ensure that everyone can see the people on the platform very clearly. Without any electronic equipment, this method is the most concise and effective.
The entire venue was extremely quiet, leaving only the dull sound of Bai Yan's footsteps stepping on the concrete floor. Bai Yan was not used to this feeling. The moment he walked onto the platform, it seemed as if he felt that the eyes of thousands of people here were all at the same time, staring at every movement and every expression change.
As the first executive of the six core teams of the Luoyang Alliance, before Li Taixi's Taishang Dao appeared, he was the overlord of Luoyang City. He had never seen the highly anticipated scene once or twice, but this time it was completely different.
The strength represented by everyone here, all the combined strength represents, is the power of most human society, and the power of more than tens of millions of people can be combined to burst out.
The spiral stairs on the platform just circled the entire platform. The clock placed here before had been moved down. Looking at the empty platform, Bai Yan suddenly began to hate his men, why did he design the steps of this platform so long?
But he couldn't walk too fast, so he could only walk slowly upward step by step. The burden in his heart slowly increased as the height of the platform rose. The eyes of thousands of people were like a mountain, pressing heavily on him.
Every step he took was to carry a huge burden, and every step he took would consume a lot of energy. Even the power he had just broken through the third-level spiritual vein could not withstand this invisible and terrifying pressure.
Until he accidentally saw Li Taixi standing in the crowd, not paying attention to his figure, and his presence was also very low-key, but Bai Yan saw him at first sight in the crowd.
Li Taixi looked calm, without any emotional fluctuations. The ancient well was in his eyes, and he looked straight at Bai Yan with everyone's eyes. Bai Yan didn't see anything in his eyes, but he felt that while he was touching these calm eyes, the invisible power on his body also disappeared without a trace.
So what about the representatives of the eight major forces? The person standing behind me is Li Taixi, the Taishang Dao, who is not inferior to that of the strong! Every time I take a step, I feel that the heavy pressure on my body disappears a little. Until I climbed the last step, Bai Yan once again regained his usual feeling of being light and light. Everything here is like a storm. There are always times when gathering and dispersing, so why bother to care too much?
He looked up slightly and looked up at the faint clouds in the sky. After waiting for a while, Bai Yan's face was already calm, and he could not see the average emotional fluctuations, at least he could not see it on his face.
He lowered his head and coughed lightly. At this moment, Bai Yan clearly saw Li Taixi in the crowd nodding slightly to him, as if he had received great power and when he raised his head again, his eyes were full of determination. His hands were placed flat on a rock table in front of him, slowly and forcefully opening the curtain of the meeting.
Today, we gather here, putting aside the national righteousness, we do not need any glory to cover it. Today, this meeting representing more than 70% of spiritual veins in China has only one issue. Look behind us, this land was the most prosperous area in Luoyang a week ago, but now it has become the appearance in front of you. At this moment, where we stand at our feet is built with collapsed buildings and blood-stained bricks and stones.
The venue was silent, and everyone deliberately suppressed their breathing, for fear of disturbing this solemn atmosphere.
All of this is not a natural disaster or a man-made disaster. Since the change, it has been a whole year and seven months since it was today. In these more than 500 days and nights, like you, I live almost every day in the shadow of demons and monsters. When I fall asleep every day, I have to worry about whether the city can still exist when I wake up tomorrow morning and whether the sunshine of tomorrow can still cover this earth.
Bai Yan paused and looked at Li Taixi again, as if he wanted to get some instructions, appreciation, or dissatisfaction from him, but he was disappointed, and Li Taixi's face remained calm, without any emotion, and it seemed that he had not heard his words at all.
If there is no reaction, it is the best reaction. At least it can be confirmed that you have not violated his wishes. The world of the past has collapsed, and those stable days are gone forever. The dawn of the new era has arrived. We need to rely on the power in our hands to establish order in the new era and safeguard the interests of the people you represent.
Perhaps the destruction of the world by the demon will continue for a long time, and perhaps, this place will be destroyed again tomorrow by the demon, but as long as we still exist and as long as there is still a trace of spiritual vein power, human beings will never perish. As long as we have not perished, our resistance to the demon will never disappear!
Gather all our strengths, let us jointly establish a new society in this chaotic era, let us jointly resist the rampant devils, eliminate all devils who dare to invade our territory, and let us return to the peak of the world once again!
The audience was silent, without applause or discussion. Bai Yan seemed to have not felt this solemn atmosphere, turned around and walked down the platform gently according to the pace frequency when he came up. This time, his whole body was filled with indescribable ease, and the huge pressure that had previously shrouded him disappeared without a trace.
It was not until after he stepped down that a slight discussion gradually sounded in the crowd, but there was no violent response.
Hu carved on the clouds and looked at the farce below boredly. His spiritual sense gathered everything about Bai Yan under his nose, including his small actions when he came on stage and when he started his speech.
At the opening of this conference, he only saw a puppet being pushed down on the stage, making a meaningless speech, and doing useless work that was completely useless to a group of people who were full of people who came for the interests of the group they represented.
All these people who represent the major groups behind them can be sent to this venue. None of them is a fool, and no one will be moved by Bai Yan's words without any substance.
The only purpose of their coming here is to be able to better divide interests. They are indifferent to everything else. The first few words made them excited a little, thinking that they wanted to put aside those boring disguises and go directly to the topic of division of interests.
Although some of them came here to join in the fun when they were bored, just like Hu Ke and others, more people focused on the interests that followed. The only thing that could impress them was the naked interest relationship.
The benefits contained in the issue of life and death are already great enough, but most people have the confidence to persevere in the dangers they need to face. They have been here for more than a year. Now many people believe that the suppression of human beings by alien life such as demons has begun to slow down from here.
The next time is the feast for survivors to establish a new era, and a new social framework will return to this broken land.
Chapter completed!
