The Dodge Family mainly operated in transportation. Although it did business with the Federation military, not much of it was involved.

After all, it was not a military-industrial enterprise with deep roots and a proper pedigree. The Dodge Family's business still leaned more toward "civilian use," which was perhaps why it ranked only ninety-seventh in the Federation.

Saine's proposal made Jeremy raise a brow. Though it had caught him off guard, Jeremy did not refute it outright. Instead, he asked why Saine wanted to venture into military-industrial development.

"My father told me that within a few hundred years at the soonest, or a few thousand at the latest, great changes would inevitably occur around our civilization."

"It will be a catastrophe, but it may also be an opportunity. It all depends on whether we can seize it." Saine said to Jeremy.

"You mean... Wizard Civilization?" Jeremy asked with a frown.

"That's right!" Saine nodded.

The tense relationship between the Galente Federation and Wizard Civilization was no secret throughout the Federation. Even some well-informed ordinary people knew about it.

However, the overall atmosphere among the Federation's lower classes did not place much concern on the matter.

This might have been related to guidance of public opinion from the Federation's upper echelons, or perhaps this civilization's social climate was simply like this.

Ordinary people all felt that war was far away from them.

More than ninety percent of Federation humans had no idea that war was already bearing down on them.

And it was not only the Galente Federation. Was Wizard Civilization any different?

The only ones who truly knew that a Civilization War was about to begin were Knights and Magicians above Level 4.

As for Level-1 and Level-2 Creatures, such matters really were not something they should worry about.
