CHAPTER TEXT:
Reform!
The Dwarves made a significant move, and the news of their proposed reforms initially stunned countless information dealers from the All Races of the Universe who were waiting for updates.
Is it really the time for reform now? Shouldn't they be seeking revenge for the peak experts who have died in their clan?
Amidst the shock of many, the details of the Dwarven reforms began to emerge.
After reading through it, everyone realized that this reform seemed to be directly related to the Dwarves' recent foreign policy.
The Dwarves had increasingly involved themselves in the affairs of the All Races of the Universe, particularly after the chaos in Divine Artisan City, which allowed them to seize nearly one-third of the black market share. In the formal market, their trade volume also rose to six percent.
This is an exaggerated figure.
This number represents enormous income generated every moment.
The Dwarves were already quite wealthy, but now they have become even richer.
With wealth, they can do many things, making many people gravitate towards them and speak on their behalf.
This trend had been evident for a while.
Now, the core aspect of this reform was that the Tarros Red Dwarfs' system had transitioned to a clan leader concentration system.
Previously, like many other races in the universe, they implemented a political model that prioritized the clan leader while balancing the elders' power.
Centralized power can lead to severe drawbacks at times, but in certain moments, it can also make many processes more efficient.
The Dwarves implemented this system overnight, clearly paving the way for future developments.
It also indicated that Heiting Yanting, the Dwarven clan leader who had been in office for only a few years, had reached an unprecedented level of control over the race.
Think about it—a peak expert and a divine artisan, along with a wife who is also a peak expert and divine artisan, the inherent influence is already substantial.
The information dealers recognized at this point that when the Dwarves made decisions in the future, they might no longer hesitate and would become very decisive and efficient, with rapid response times.
Of course, this would also become very dangerous.
After all, many decisions lie within the whims of the clan leader.
Another part of the reform was the restructuring of the Dwarven military.
Previously, people knew about the Dwarven military system mainly through the mechanical legion and several armies formed by Dwarven clansmen.
But now, the Dwarves announced that their number of legions had suddenly increased to ten.
These included the first, second, third, and fourth special mechanical legions, composed of both foreign races and Dwarves, alongside the Bashan, Falling Hammer, Iron Cup, and Molybdenum legions formed by the Dwarven clansmen, as well as the divine artisan imperial guard.
Each of the five mechanical legions had around five hundred thousand members, while the four main Dwarven legions had approximately three hundred thousand each, and the divine artisan imperial guard had about one hundred thousand.
The entire Dwarven race now boasted ten legions, with nearly four million warriors!
This does not even include the large number of auxiliary and logistical troops, as well as a significant-sized reserve force.
After lying in wait for many years, the Dwarves finally revealed their fangs.
Four million pure warriors, an army scale exceeding ten million, and potentially even more that could be converted into formal troops at any time—this sudden display from the Dwarves shocked the entire universe.
While many super clans might have a similar number of four hundred thousand troops, the Dwarves were different.
They were inherently excellent warriors, combined with the various outstanding weapons and equipment manufactured by their own clan, which boosted their combat effectiveness well above the average level of other races' armies.
The mechanical legions formed by non-Dwarves were itself not weak, and the mechanical battle armor further enhanced their combat strength, making them formidable as well.
