It can be said that it is everyone’s nature to embrace the future.
Whether it is the application of cutting-edge technology or the implementation of technology that improves the quality of life, it shows that progress can bring advantages.
At this point, the same is true for the evolution of ethnic groups.
At this time, it was in a colony within a certain empire.
What is the first impression? It must be full of futuristic technology.
The cold urban style makes people truly feel what interstellar civilization is.
Oaks stayed in the command post, looking at the empire's growth data with great satisfaction.
As the ruler of an empire, it is not easy to achieve such results.
An access message came from the communication, which was a request from the Empire's Commander-in-Chief Star Governor.
Don’t think too much, this communication is just to report the research situation.
"Agree to access."
A picture of the Governor Star Governor appeared in front of Oaks. He was a very cold-looking man.
"I have met His Majesty."
The brief greeting came, the voice was neither humble nor arrogant, just like reporting to the boss after working overtime.
Oakes looked at him and nodded in response.
The General Star Governor didn't waste any time and immediately presented the information: "Through our efforts, the implantation rate of prosthetic bodies among our citizens has now reached more than 25%. It can be said that the basis of the evolutionary strategy has been basically completed."
"Among them, implanting prosthetics has increased the empire's operating efficiency by 57%, which has increased our various incomes a lot, and the overall development is good."
The empire controlled by Oaks has already tried the new human development route.
And according to intelligence, empires like theirs that planned prosthetic body implants in advance are extremely rare, and they obviously seized the opportunity.
Oakes raised his right hand, which was an arm that had been transformed into a mechanical body and tended to cover the entire torso.
That's right, as the ruler, he is turning into a prosthetic body at this time!
It is a well-known fact that the existence of a ruler is essentially impossible to change.
Only the growth of national power can enable rulers to increase their physical fitness.
And part of the ruler's enhancements will be passed on to the citizens, increasing their lifespan.
However, conversely, changes in the citizens can also affect the shape of the rulers.
The higher the proportion of citizens' prosthetic implants, the rulers will gradually transform into prosthetic humans.
This is a fact that Oakes only learned some time ago.
However, he didn't feel anything at all.
As the saying goes, flesh and blood are weak, so embracing evolution is a good choice.
"The human body is still too weak. In order for the Empire to take the lead in the battle for hegemony in the galaxy, necessary evolution is necessary!"
After Oakes said these words, he resolutely asked the Star Governor to promulgate the policy of prosthetic body implantation.
No matter who it is, a certain amount of prosthetics must be implanted to ensure the popularity of the prostheses.
And the implantation of prosthetics has indeed allowed many people to gain many abilities.
Physical fitness has been greatly improved, learning ability has also increased a lot, and the number of experts has quickly increased.
This is the main reason why the empire's data is growing rapidly.
Of course, it’s okay if you don’t want to be implanted, but it depends on how much the rich and powerful are willing to pay.
In addition, the implantation of prosthetics is not completely harmless, and problems also arise.
After Oaks stared at his prosthetic right hand for a moment, he asked, "Has the highest prosthetic endurance been improved?"
"With our current level of technology, we can cover up to 45% of prosthetic implants in people. Any more, and they will become mentally ill without consciousness."
Too many prosthetic implants will cause cyberpsychosis, which is their exclusive research result.
Although I heard that other empires are also researching prosthetics, there are probably not many that have gone this far.
"Cyber psychosis..." Oakes muttered to himself.
() He also pays attention to the research report of the Academy of Sciences.
In the final analysis, prosthetic people use conveniently replaceable prosthetic equipment to increase human attributes.
But the problem is that if too many prosthetics are implanted, the implanted subject will inexplicably enter a certain consciousness space.
There are very complex circuit scenarios that are difficult for humans to adapt to.
It's okay if you can recover, but if you can't, you'll become a cybermaniac.
Therefore, there are two paths before Oakes.
The first is the problem of stabilizing prosthetic implantation, increasing coverage while ensuring that people will not become madmen. By then, they will still be human beings, but the entire society will have changed into other forms.
The second is to take a step forward directly, and simply conduct in-depth research, so that everyone can completely move towards the direction of mechanical creatures and complete true evolution.
The answer to this question doesn't require much thought for Oakes.
He likes the security of being in control.
He didn't want to experience the empire's previous weak state again.
Even if he becomes the gravedigger of the human race, he doesn't care at all!
In order to win this long StarCraft, many people made decisions similar to Oaks.
In the fifth star sector of the second star field, there was a power empire that also established their development direction at this time.
The Xisi Empire is a small force that relies on a certain powerful country for its survival.
In their research institute, the ruler and a group of scientists were discussing something around an engine.
"This is the latest energy reactor we built based on the data obtained from the ruins."
The chief scientist, Eru Elfo said so.
He looks young, but he already has white hair. He seems to be worried about the research direction of the entire empire.
"Ah, is this the new energy reactor you're talking about? Why is it so small?"
The ruler of the Xisi Empire is a girl with short red hair named Shleta.
It is undeniable that she "contributed a lot" to the decline of the Xisi Empire to what it is today.
But no one said they should blame her. After all, ruling an interstellar empire is really not an easy task.
Eluelf did not despise Shleta's ignorance. On the contrary, he was very grateful for the opportunity given by the other party, so he believed that he had an obligation to let the empire truly develop.
"Indeed, this energy reactor is much smaller than ordinary reactors."
Eruelfo showed Shreta the design drawing of the reactor and added: "However, the energy level it can produce is almost the same as the antimatter reactors on the market. We are already ahead of the market!"
Shleta looked at the data comparison with some confusion and found that the size of this reactor was five times smaller than the antimatter reactor. The energy produced could even drive a battleship, which was undoubtedly an excellent technology.
"Great, in this case, we should be able to solve the tax problem of the suzerain country." She said with some joy.
Unexpectedly, Eluel shook his head: "But unfortunately, this reactor has a serious flaw."
The information on the new reactor was excavated on a certain ruined planet.
After investigation and testing by sociologists, it was learned that this reactor uses certain particles as its main driving energy.
After repeated verification, it was named Minovsky particle.
The energy produced by Minovsky particles is not only high, but also much smaller.
The drawback is that when this energy source is activated, all surrounding detection equipment will be severely interfered and the radar will completely fail.
"Ah...then how wide is its range of influence?" Shreta did not expect that this particle had such disadvantages.
"In terms of ship distance units, its coverage is about 20 points, which is beyond the level of the ghost, a space creature with the longest attack range." Eluelfo replied.
"Doesn't this mean it can't be used at all?" Shleta was a little disappointed. She thought this reactor would make the Kesith Empire make a lot of money.
How far is 20 o'clock? It's almost 1 AU (astronomical unit) long.
Alfo could see Shleta's disappointment, and he nodded: "Yes, the Minovsky particle reactor cannot be used as a general reactor."
"But!" He changed the topic, "The applications of Minovsky particles are far more than this. If you support it, we can develop new weapons of war."
"By then, we may have changed the way the interstellar fights are fought!"
