Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Chapter 3109: New Tests

When Li Yao heard this, he couldn't help but say "Wow” - he seemed to understand why too ancient a snail lived on Earth, no spiritual energy, only the original family of technology, finally managed the spiritual energy, scolded the star sea, dominated the universe.

“The march towards the meteorite rains sounds crazy and the success rate is close to zero, but the success rate of all the rest of the programs is not much higher than zero. It's a big bet of loneliness, so why not maximize betting and profitability? ”

The voice said, "The crystal has the ability to nourish everything, and the spiritual energy hidden in a few small meteorites is enough to revive the dying waste soil. If we had a whole planet of crystals at the origin of the meteorite rain, how rich the world would be, even if only a handful of survivors could reach it, there would be great possibilities to revive our civilization.

“After a full year of discussion and contention, all seemingly sound solutions proved impossible, and our civilization finally rejected all dissent, united, burned all wisdom and courage, made the greatest sacrifice, worked towards this goal - in just a hundred years, developed advanced enough star navigation and human hibernation technology, and created a starship capable of accommodating hundreds of millions of people to flee, no, a plan for the revival of the great universe!

“Well, hearing this, I'm sure you've got a general idea of where you're coming from, and then continuing with the test, you, in your capacity as the Earth Council's 'chairman', will take over the power of the entire planet, complete the goal of developing specific technologies in just over a hundred years, and create supermassive starships capable of accommodating the minimum operation of civilization, and sail far.

“Remember, each of your choices has the potential to determine the survival of the entire civilization and even permanently change the way our cosmic ocean will look over the next hundred million years, so don't let the so-called 'justice, goodness and mercy’ interfere with your judgment and make truly civilization-friendly choices! ”

“Ah?”

Li Yao didn't react for a moment, his mind turned, and he woke up, "Well, this is ridiculous, I'm just an adventurer, not a qualified politician at all and... Scientist, how could I be stronger than the billions of politicians and scientists of the Earth's era, and in a short time, make every right choice, which is too hard for a strong person? ”

“This is just a test, and all options are highly abstract and simplified, and certainly do not require you to be thorough, nor do you need to know all the details of technology. ”

The voice said, "We just want to make sure that you, a new race, with sharp technical insights and future perceptions, will not squander our heritage. Besides, you have three opportunities to make mistakes, so long as you follow our advice carefully, the test can go on. ”

“This...”

Li Yao still finds it absurd, “Are adventurers of past hundreds of civilizations being tested like this? No wonder they couldn't get through. It was a trick, even by instinct, by luck! ”

“As I have just said, perhaps‘ luck ’and‘ luck ’are the most critical elements for the birth and rise of a civilization. ”

The voice said, "It's not a mistake if you have to take this test as a test of your luck. ”

“But...”

Li Yao also wanted to argue, but there was already an astronomical digital flow of information, like the horrific volcanic eruption and great avalanche of a short time ago, crashing into his sea of knowledge, paving the ground, and pouring into the tsunami of Shanhu.

The new “level”, and the initial manipulation of an archaeal bacterium, a spore, evolved all the way to the peak of carbon-based intelligent life, only replaced the original direction of variation with countless “technologies” and “policies”, and each technology and policy checks and balances each other, influences each other, accelerates, unlocks or deters the implementation of new technologies and policies, the overall complexity of which is a hundred times higher than just now.

Within Li Yao's field of view, there is also a sparkling blood-red countdown in the upper left corner, which counts down as fast as a hundred years, each day being as short as a second.

In the upper right corner, on the other hand, is a schedule showing that he is currently completing 1 per cent of what he is doing, tens of thousands of years of navigating through the stars and seas, and lacking at least a few hundred pieces of critical technology.

Technologies, technologies, including the parameters of this tested version of the planet —— population, energy status, environmental pollution indexes, recent trends by major forces, popular responses to the “end of the world", and so on -- are presented in the form of the most confusing and violent data.

With endless options dripping like waterfalls, Li Yao doesn't even have time to curse.

“Hydraulic Fracture Mining Method”, "Reinforced Exoskeleton”, "NanoGrade Composite Armor”, “Ion Propellator”, “Outer Space Ecological Circulation System” …

Li Yao must set aside a series of resources, such as funding for research and development, personnel and facilities, and even completely reject some of these unnecessary technologies to determine the completion time of these technologies.

“Geocentric mining”, “Self-regulating robots”, “Hyperlogical computers”...

He must also choose the most critical of a range of advanced technologies to break through.

“Armoured torpedoes”, "Nuclear fusion missiles”, “Pulse guns” …

The research and development of these sophisticated weapons seems unnecessary, but who knows if ancient astral heterogeneity will be encountered in the course of tens of thousands or even millions of years of stellar ocean wandering? He cannot abandon altogether scientific and technological advances in weapons research and development.

Even though Li Yao was a brilliant refiner master in the 40,000 years of repair, it does not mean that he can master the right direction of scientific and technological advancement in a world without powers - those meteorite fragments bring too few crystals, applied to the entire civilized escape, basically a water truck salary, the vast majority of the fleet's starships and hibernation equipment, still depend on conventional technological means to solve it, Li Yao is not an expert in this area at all, as the voice says, many times can only use “intuition” and “luck” to collide directly.

On the other hand, unlike the spore evolutionary link just now, while he is in command of the entire planet as a civilized leader, it does not mean that everyone will obey his orders.

As the tests deepened, more and more of the hidden parameters of the Earth were known to Li Yao at that time, which gave him a deep understanding of the complex variability and creepy speculation of the Earth's landscape before the end.

Although the Earth Council became the nominal governing body of the entire civilization, the residual power of the old nations and peoples did not disappear instantly, they moved underground and remained active in the form of fundamentalism and extremist ideologies, such as viruses.

“None of our kind must have a different heart. Only we, a people, are the representatives of the whole civilization, and only we are entitled to survive in the Great Universe! ”

Such rhetoric pervaded the planet at the time.

Even as starship manufacturing and human hibernation techniques have just begun, eight words have not been spared, and ambitious people from different ethnic groups have argued and even created new frictions in order to eventually be able to board the starship in proportion to the population.

Beyond that, while the Battle of the Spirit is over, not all the radicals and modifiers who had lived on the ground have been extinct - the powerful and powerful ones with so many “superpowers”, the best workers and fighters, who can help considerably with the whole civilization's plan to march into the great universe, but who, at the same time, are also full of anger and hatred towards the underground or those in power, treating the Earth Council as their greatest enemy, even as if it were to be destroyed with the underground, and who are willing to destroy the Earth Council's starship manufacturing programme.

“You bastards, making the planet look like a mess, trying to slap your asses and walk away and leave us here to die? Let's all die together! ”

This was the cry of the radiators and the transfigurers.

How to deal with extremist nationalists and radiation races and modifiers hidden in the darkness becomes a headache for the highest authorities of the Earth Council - especially the latter, where a hundred psychics are easily crushed by a hundred heavy tanks on the front battlefield, but where a hundred psychics are turned to zero, dressed in costumes, sneaking into shelters and military bases, the damage they can do is not stopped and repaired by 10,000 tanks.

Though the Psychic War was over, the superpowers who had managed to escape found the right way to use intelligence.

They are like deadly viruses, eroding precarious escape plans.

Politically, Li Yao has always admired a democratic republican system that is bright and bright, believing that power must not be concentrated on one person, but placed under the supervision of the whole people.

He has also foiled, on numerous occasions with his sword, a plot by an ambitious family called "Save Civilization”.

However, in the face of the apocalyptic crisis of the post-apocalyptic era, his heart was also unwittingly overshadowed, and he had to admit that democracy could not save the planet from such sores and deformities. Only an iron-blooded man could bring a new life to the entire civilization.

“Perhaps Boss Bai, Li Jialing, Longyang Jun and even Dingbell are better suited to take such tests than I am. ”

Li Yao thought ridiculously.

There is one more person, perhaps more suited than everyone else, for this kind of test —— the already dead Golden Slaughter.

If Kim Tu was the Earth's leader at the time, how would he manage such a mess?

Li Yao recalled everything in his mind about the Golden Slaughter, pulling every fragment of the Golden Slaughter from the depths of the sea of knowledge, using superb computing power to gather together.

He simulates his logic thinking to look like a golden slaughter, and uses a golden slaughter to solve the immediate problem.
