Forty Millenniums of Cultivation
Chapter 1667: Flowers for Old Brothers and Sisters
“Panlong, Pharmacopoeia, Wuying and Sarbane...”
Li Yao was in a bit of a trance, as if he had returned more than a hundred years ago, on the ruins of Kunlun, when Su Chang Hair, the immortal, “brainwashed” him for the first time.
To this day, he still remembers the pharmacokinetic civilization that was weakened by excessive medical treatment and eventually destroyed by the outbreak of the virus; the Panlong civilization, which lost its heart of progress because of the abundance of resources on the home planet; and the Wu English civilization, which, without identification and indoctrination, was suddenly embraced by the Sabayans, led the wolves into the room and took its own demise.
He remembered the pharmacopoeia that pervaded the land after the outbreak of the virus; remembered the empty star harbour of the Panlong civilization, full of sores, rust spots, and the wreckage of a starship that could never be broken through; and remembered how the last Wuying practitioner - the young man who later became 'Black Star Emperor Wuyingqi’ - was tormented by being thrown into volcanic lava.
Can all of this… really change?
Ling Xiaole gave Li Yao a state-of-the-art "Civilization" dedicated companion brain.
This miniature crystal computer connects directly to the Game Hall database, making it easy to gather most of the open world's game record, a different “civilization” history of ups and downs.
Tap the icon on the light screen to see the new paths of the three civilizations "Panlong, Pharmacopoeia and Wuying” in the virtual world from scratch.
The time scale is highly concentrated, and every second in reality represents a month in the virtual world, with all sorts of information streams slipping like waterfalls, representing every big thing that happens in the game.
Li Yao held his breath and saw three completely different paths from the brainwashing illusions of more than a hundred years ago.
He saw that some drug forkers had realized in advance the defects of their civilization, deliberately created and lived in different “dirty chambers” of the “sterile world" outside, and maintained a certain immunity. After the outbreak of the ultimate plague, they were united, struggling to survive, invented all kinds of new divinity, cultivated the body from scratch, strengthened the flesh, awakened a string of powerful genes that had been asleep for a long time, eventually defeated the virus and plague, and on a land full of sores, sprouted with roots and blossoming results.
He saw that the rulers of the Panlong world, over and over again, had fought against the short-sightedness and inertia inherent in mankind, marching to the star sea at all costs, biting their teeth at all costs, and finally, before the resources of the mother planet were completely depleted, had completed the construction of a deep space fleet across the great thousand worlds, giving the Panlong people the ability to sail far and ride the star sea.
He saw that Wu Ying civilization, in a small social experiment, realized the danger of opening doors, completely abandoned the goodness and unprepared naiveté without a mind, first entered the dominant Sha Sha Sha Shan realm with his powerful civilization, after assimilating the vast majority of the Sha Sha Shan people in centuries of domination and indoctrination, then slowly introduced a new generation of Sha Sha Shan people into Wu Ying.
“This is the most ‘finished' video of the three highest levels of difficulty, but it is by no means the only mode, and today there are countless players who have come up with ways to save these civilizations, many of them strange or even disobedient, but at least a little bit —— everyone has kept the bottom line of the practitioner, the bottom line of humanity. ”
Ling Xiaole said, "Unlike Li Yao's brainwashing more than a hundred years ago, in the highest difficulty, every detail is real, every problem exists objectively, even more serious than the crisis facing the real 'drug fork, panlong and Wuying' civilization.
“99% of the players failed, but after millions of failures, someone finally succeeded in moving these three civilizations forward for over a thousand years! This proves - however complex, difficult and dangerous, the road to light still exists! ”
Li Yao ignored her and immersed herself in a whole new world of three civilizations.
He slowed down the passage of the timeline, magnified the scene on the light screen and observed a vibrant and prosperous city of drug forks, pan dragons and Wu Ying civilized people, looking at a smiling face of drug forkers, pan dragons, Wu Ying and Sha Barbarians.
Even though he knew that these were virtual crystal brains, he was extremely comforted and satisfied.
Even if there is a teenager named "Xiaoqi" in this “Wuying Realm”, he must be fighting for a better future at this moment, he will never become "Black Star Emperor Wuyinqi”?
Ling Xiaole watched Li Yao's reaction next to her, suddenly his little hand shook, and the crystal brain emitted a bright light. Between her fingers, she clustered into a delicate stream of flowers and passed them to Li Yao.
“Although the Panlong civilization, the Pharmaceutical Fork civilization and the Wu Ying civilization have long since been destroyed, I think people who have lived in these civilizations would be glad to see their world so beautiful if there were spirits in the sky?
“Do you want to give them a bouquet of flowers to commemorate these civilizations scattered all over the stars and seas that have long faded away for a thousand years, our unmasked brothers and sisters… ”
Li Yao took a deep breath and nodded. He took this bunch of non-existent virtual flowers from Ling Xiaole's hand.
Ling Xiaole smiled slightly and continued: “A lot of people came to the games hall. The first thing was to send flowers to these lost civilizations. Each bunch of virtual flowers consumed one star coin, and when players bought a bunch of flowers, more than 120 groups and sects with which Civilization had a strategic agreement, they would send another star coin to a special foundation.
“The purpose of this foundation is to continuously launch a variety of unmanned exploration ships around the star sea, especially around the edge of the star sea, in search of more human civilizations that have been scattered for 10,000 years since the collapse of the Star Sea Empire, outside the sphere of influence of the Empire and the Alliance.
“Panlong, Pharmacopoeia and Wu Ying civilizations have been destroyed, but we believe that there must be more civilizations of the same type around the starry sea, still in darkness, isolated, struggling and in need of help.
“While our quest has been fruitless for decades, as long as the Federation remains, it will never cease, and we will find them, tell them about the existence of the Federation, tell them… a brighter future exists! ”
In that regard, Li Yao paid a sobering tribute to the new Federation, which designed the system.
Ling Xiaole laughed more and more happily, her teeth as white as jade sparkled with light: "This flower is my personal gift, because there is also a saying that if you send a bouquet of flowers to these brotherly civilizations that perish in the depths of the stars and seas, you will have much better luck playing games, like worshipping Lord Li Yiu - you don't think that's superstition, do you? ”
Li Yao couldn't help laughing.
This time, he did not refuse Ling Xiaole's kindness, lifting virtual flowers toward three civilizations still thriving in the star sea and making great strides.
The colorful flowers split into pieces, transformed into film color butterflies, divided into three strands, and flew into three large clusters of light, as if they landed on the shoulders of a dragon man, a medicine fork man, Wu Ying and a Savage man.
“May you rest in peace. ”
Ling Xiaole put her hands together next to her and muttered, "Please bless us too, bless Xingyao Federation, good luck all the time! ”
After completing the "folk culture” of flowers to the civilization of the past, Li Yao and Night Lan were led to a VIP room.
As Speaker's Special Envoy, in order to gain an in-depth understanding of the new Federation, Li Yao is naturally unlikely to be completely obsessed with a game like a regular player.
Ling Xiaole has selected more than a hundred highly representative information films for Li Yao, covering all aspects of the new Federation over the centuries, without necessarily having to play.
If you have enjoyed classic performances from the top game players, you will have a profound and detailed understanding of the century-old wind and cloud of the new Federation.
However, the first two worlds presented by Ling Xiaole were a dark, gloomy, almost dead silence.
“A series of virtual courses must be completed before the ritual of majority of all federalists, that is, before they are allowed into the true world of" civilization ", in which they are shown a ‘world of failure’ destroyed by wrong decisions, to remind them how much a civilization can move forward like a thin ice, fearful, somewhat careless, irreversible! ”
Ling Xiaole showed Li Yao two worlds adapted based on the true history of the new Federation.
In both virtual worlds, decision-makers have made the exact opposite choice from the real world.
The “key decision point” of the first failed world was seventy years ago, when only the three realms of celestial, planetary and bloodthirsty starry federations met for the first time, and all sorts of resources were extremely scarce, and only the crystalline boundaries of the sole crystal ore veins were available.
In the real world, both sides exercised great restraint, in particular the repression of the main warring factions within the Federation, which, after lengthy negotiations, achieved considerable compromise and merger.
And in this failed virtual world, the main warriors within the Federation prevail.
“The desert barbarians have nothing, they can't even build a starship, but they occupy so many crystal ore veins for nothing. Why? Now or never, for the sake of the development of the Federation, and in order to defend against the attack of the Real Human Empire, we must annex the Crystal Realm as soon as possible! ”
Such voices are mainstreamed in Parliament and the military.
The Federation in the virtual world has waged a war of conquest against the crystal world.
The war is progressing very well, indeed, as these main warriors have said, there is an abject lack of metallic resources, a crystalline civilization that does not even possess starship refining technology and is totally powerless to resist federal attacks, and the surface of the stars will soon be completely occupied by the Federation.
But the harsh desert environment of the crystal world and the ghostly guerrillas in the desert have consumed the occupying forces, mining coalitions and resource monopolies.
Even crystal men who are afraid to join the guerrillas dare at least destroy all the caves by various means, causing the highly unstable crystal mineral veins to explode.
The destruction of mining bases, the persistent high cost of mining, the war that cost so much money, became an unremunerated buying and selling of compensation, seriously delayed the pace of development of the Federation's mainland, and the plans to confront the Empire presented at the “Yuan Baby Congress” centuries ago were all dragged down.
