Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Chapter 2865: A Million Years of Interim Strategy

That's the reason!

Li Yao couldn't help but think of a story.

It was a story told to him by the master of floating cicadas in the ancient sacred world.

When the ancient holy realm was unwisely opened and the master of bitter cicadas traveled in the clouds, reason was often embedded in a commonly understood little story, told to the people of Lebanon, thus inspiring the people's mind.

Master Bitter Cicada told Li Yao that a long time ago, there was a very timid nobleman at the beginning of humanity in the ancient holy world, in a time of turmoil that had not even been established by the Empire of Yunqin.

This nobleman was so timid that when he heard the thunderous roar of heaven, he had to hide under the table case to the extent that Cesar was shaking. In an era of famous chaos of martial arts, he naturally became the laughingstock between the noblemen.

However, on one occasion, when it was heard that his monarch was in need of rescue, the timid nobleman, though afraid, did not hesitate to come forward and rehabilitate the horse and go to rescue the monarch.

The family dissuaded him, saying that he could not even hold the sword and the chariot could not stand, how could he go to war.

Other aristocrats laughed at him more. A cowardly man like him was afraid to reach the battlefield. If he heard the drums of both armies, he had soft legs, he couldn't move, and someone else had to rescue him. Why was he so grumpy?

The nobleman responded positively: "Weakness is my nature, it is my private matter, but saving the king is a national matter, it is a matter of the public, can not be a 'private man'? ”

Thus, the cowardly nobleman finally refused to listen to the advice of his family and other nobles and persisted in the fight to kill him. As a result, the horse lost his forefoot and fell from the chariot, and he was actually scared to death alive.

At that time, Master Bitter Cicada and Li Yao, as well as the "Top 10 Ancient Saints”, told the story in the context of their discussions on whether they should go to aid the Xingyao Federation, and with an ancient sacred community in their district, could they fight the Black Wind fleet even if they joined the chaos?

The story doesn't end well, and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with "courage” in the usual sense.

Even then, Li Yao could not quite understand the protagonist of this story. Whether this cowardly nobleman was brave or cowardly, he should not go to war and die like this absurdly.

But at this moment, when he heard the choice of the best of civilizations hundreds of thousands of years ago, he suddenly understood the choice that "cannot be abandoned by private men”.

As individuals, those who are the best of Pankonian civilization have every reason to feel confused, fearful, desperate, chilled and even mentally broken in the face of more powerful billions of times more powerful.

However, in addition to their private identities, they are commanders, commanders and elite warriors of the Pangu Expeditionary Army. They must still guard the strongest barriers of the entire civilization, or Pangu civilization has amassed 100,000 years and resources, refined the sharpest knife of war, and remains the greatest and only hope for billions of compatriots!

They have no room for confusion, no reason to fear, and no power to despair!

Even if the love of loved ones is removed, even if the perception of beauty is shielded, if one castrates one's emotional fluctuations and aspirations for hope, and alienates oneself from a flesh and blood person to a ruthless, numb, mechanically executed tool, they all have a mission to accomplish, and they have to continue fighting, even if the enemy is the maker of the dark screen or the flood tide, they have to bite their teeth and persist.

What spirit is this?

Li Yao is deeply saddened that any civilization capable of rushing out into the mother universe is destined to be great, brilliant and noble. Such a civilization will never lack the hodges and chivalrous men willing to do everything for it and make strong sacrifices.

“Don't fool around, squeeze the moisture out of your mouth. ”

The Bloody Heart Demon calmed down a little more than Li Yao, reminding him, "Even if, as a temporary strategy, ‘Sealed Emotions' had some effect on the remnants of the Pangu Expeditionary Army, this temporary strategy could be suspended at most until they brought ‘Hung Chao Legion Wreckage’ and ‘Dark Screen Technology' back to their homes?

“Why, instead of being discontinued, does it continue to expand, from a small part of the elite who went to the outside world to all individuals of the entire civilization, deprived of their emotions and castrated their will?

“As you can see, Volkswagen must have hidden a lot of details, and those details are his plot, pay attention to discernment, and don't believe them entirely. ”

“I understand. ”

"It's not too soon to tell," said Li Yao. "When it's finished, the smartest lies are all false. It wants to deceive Lu Qingdu, a well-thought-out smart man, who will surely throw a lot of real bait! ”

Surely, there was also a glimmer of emotion between the souls of Lu Light Dust, but soon regained calm and sharpness, inaction: “Then what? ”

“After sealing all emotions, the remnants of the Pangu Expeditionary Army finally regained their ability to work normally, day and night, devoting themselves wholeheartedly to the analysis of the 'dark screen technique' and the 'Hung Chao Legion’, and hundreds of years later returned home with much fruit. ”

Voodoo, “and my predecessor, the Voodoo System, was given a vital ‘supreme task', which is to exhaust my computational power to think, how to save civilization, how to preserve our civilization for a long time, and, at the most appropriate time, to rush out of the dark screen and into the outside world in the most perfect form. ”

“Oh?”

Lu Qingdust slightly smiled, "Hasn't Pangu civilization given up its plans to enter the outside world? ”

“Of course not. ”

"Although emotionally no one can resist the horrors of the outside world and the despair brought about by their own insignificance, at this time all fears are sealed and removed.

“Thinking in an 'absolute reason' model, there is never a future for turtles in their homes, the dark screen is tighter, there is also a day when they are found and torn apart, around is the prolongation of asthma and waiting to die, 10,000 years and 100 million years, is there a difference?

“So, when civilization reaches its extremes, it is the only option, even if it ends in destruction, to march outside the realm and explore the multiverse.

“The only problem is the right time and perfect form.

“We must choose the most appropriate point of time, preferably the furthest away from our dark-screened universe from the 'Hung Chao' and the 'Hung Chao Legion', and our civilization must reach its limits, combining all the resources and information in the dark to exploit the extreme and no longer squeeze even a drop of extra energy, when the chances of survival are greatest.

“Along these two paths, I began to think for a long time about the question of 'ultimate salvation' and, together with the remnants of the returning Expeditionary Army, carried out 'social surgery' on the entire Pangu civilization, gradually sealing a great deal of unnecessary technology, as well as the emotions of… people. ”

“Humph, the fox's tail is finally leaking! ”

Lu Qingdu grinned, “Even if you were right, the remnants of the Pangu Expeditionary Army had to seal their emotions in order to erase fear and complete their mission, why seal the emotions of the entire population? ”

“You do not understand the social form of Pangu civilization and the spiritual needs of the people, which is the result of precise calculations of the 'Volkswagen system'. ”

Fu explained, "After hundreds of thousands of years of development of Pangu civilization, the civilization has reached its peak, the people are not like humans can still be haunted by diesel oil salt, attracted by sound dogs and horses, no, these very low levels of things are far from satisfying the ordinary people of Pangu civilization.

“For a hundred thousand years, Pankonian civilization existed for the purpose of ‘marching into a pluralistic universe', and all the people were free from low-level fun, thinking about philosophical questions such as' the development of civilization, the truth about the universe, the meaning of existence ', and the Expeditionary Army was their only hope, their only pleasure, their only answer.

“Everyone expects the Expeditionary Army to bring back the news of a pluralistic universe and to tell them how to leap civilizations. If the Expeditionary Army brings back such bad news at this time, all individuals of the entire civilization will collapse, at least calm down and become uninteresting.

“Our mission is so difficult that it would have required every individual to remain dedicated, dedicated and burning for 100,000 years or even millions of years in order to see a glimmer of life.

“And after decades of sophisticated computational and logical reasoning on the return journey of the Volkswagen system, I found that once the truth was told to these unprepared people, there was a risk of disintegration or even sudden collapse of the entire Pankonian civilization, and that people could do anything sadistic after extreme despair.

“Famine, riot, civil war.

“Bloody, violent, mutually destructive.

“In one of the most optimistic futures, people will also lose the courage to 'march into a pluralistic universe' altogether because of fear and despair, re-indulge in low-level entertainment such as sounding dogs and horses, eating and drinking games, entertainment and so on. After millions of years of nightmares, they will eventually die without disease and disappear, just as there have been countless civilizations that have emerged between ‘dark screen makers' and ‘pan ancient civilizations'.

“This future, and my ‘metalogic’, is in great conflict, and I will not allow it to happen in the interest of ‘ultimate salvation'.

“I therefore awakened some commanders of the Expeditionary Army who were hibernating, showed them the many futures that I had presented - civil war, collapse and endlessness - and pointed out to them that 'sealing emotions' was the only way to keep the whole civilization working efficiently, allowing everyone to continue to struggle hard, to contribute silently, to sacrifice a hundred or even a thousand or 10,000 generations, and ultimately to save the whole civilization.

“No, at that time, I didn't want to castrate the emotions of all individuals throughout civilization forever, which was still a temporary strategy, but only 'temporary’ scaled up to hundreds of thousands or even millions of years.

“Millions of years later, when the flood tide receded, and our civilization had the ability to travel through the multiverse, it naturally released the sealed emotions a little bit more. ”
