As the first child of a silver civilian...or rather, the first child of a silver species after the chain plan, the importance he received was unparalleled. It could be said that he itself carried great political significance.
The top brass of the Silver clan looked at the child in silence. After the birth of the child was confirmed, more than 20% of the ships were confirmed to have the possibility of breaking away from the underlying program.
Because of the lack of strong artificial intelligence or even super artificial intelligence technology, if the normal population of a civilized race is sufficient, it will naturally be similar to what is done on human ships now. A ship has enough crew members and soldiers, Of course, this doesn't matter much. Although there is no strong artificial intelligence or super artificial intelligence, the intelligent program and the allocation of a sufficient number of personnel will not cause much loss in the ship's function.
But the silver civilization is different. As civilization stagnates or even regresses, members of the ethnic group other than the top leaders are degraded and idiotic, and the population drops significantly. This makes it impossible for the silver species to be as luxurious as humans. A ship is controlled almost entirely by normal personnel, and what they do is make their people into strong-like artificial intelligence to consume.
According to the views of Lu Yuanming and other humans, this is actually similar to creations such as servitors in a certain science fiction world called Warhammer.
Now with the birth of this child, more than 20% of these warships have obvious underlying program violations. If one goes wrong... the Silver fleet group is likely to undergo civil strife, split, or even total destruction.
Fortunately, the revised draft of the serial plan signed by Lu Yuanming was quickly released, and the fertility rewards involved were announced immediately. At the same time, the information that the human government strongly rejected and reprimanded all senior silver species was also transmitted to these ships.
In the following time, any inspection, maintenance, operation, and orders of these ships will be directly taken over by humans. In particular, protective measures were taken for the pregnant gunboat, including allowing it to enter the dock of the mother ship. and a medical team composed of human members to examine and design surgical plans for it. On the one hand, it is to see whether its body can be restored, and on the other hand, it is to allow it to give birth smoothly.
All these measures were carried out openly, without any concealment or cover-up. As time passed, the tension slowly eased, and more than 20% of the ships regained control, as if everything before was just an illusion, but no one You know, some kind of change has already happened in these silver species.
"...This is unstoppable change!"
Lu Yuanming looked at the hundreds of senior officials of more than thirty silver civilizations in front of him, and he said frankly: "I did not want to kill you all, nor did I want to betray your trust. This is why I came to you today. I want to have a frank talk with you.”
These senior executives were obviously very uneasy, but because of the different races and the fact that some of the senior executives had replaced some metal parts, Lu Yuanming could not see their expressions and demeanor. At this time, as a member of the senior executives, Papaya trembled and took the lead in kneeling down and holding out a hand: "Dear Determinator, with your wisdom as vast as the stars, you can definitely understand that the birth of this child means that the bell of our end is ringing. This is There is no doubt about it... from human attitudes and your decisions, we have been effectively abandoned."
"Of course, even if we are abandoned, we can't complain. After all, we ourselves are the trophies of mankind. But, Dear Decision Maker, please look at the fact that we have been doing our best to provide suggestions and help for mankind these days... ...Please let us stay far away, give us a few ships, supplies, and weapons, so that we can stay away from this inevitable death knell."
Papaya trembled and knelt down after speaking, and the rest of the senior executives all knelt down as well.
They all know that this action means prayer in human civilization, and it means the humble praying for forgiveness from the superior.
Lu Yuanming didn't say anything, just looked at them silently, and then saw that when he raised his hand, all the kneeling silver executives stood up again.
He looked at these senior officials and said: "I repeat, I do not want to use you as a sacrifice. This is my truth. It is still what I said at the beginning. Changes have come, or do you think... In the golden age, there will be high-level people like you, right!?"
All the senior officials present looked at Lu Yuanming in astonishment. Papaya trembled several times and tried to speak, but in the end he was unable to speak.
Lu Yuanming also ignored him and continued: "In your minds, what kind of era is the Golden Age? Of course you can use countless words of praise for your race to describe it, glory, greatness, glory, eternal life... and then Imagine a paradise you think of, where you can enjoy all the beauty, right?"
"Stop joking! This universe itself is the most cruel trial ground and purgatory!"
Lu Yuanming roared: "Let's not talk about these man-made disasters. The universe itself is full of endless dangers, various cosmic disasters, various star explosions, and various horrors hidden in the dark. Life is an important factor for the entire universe. So insignificant, many times, life cannot survive in this universe without sacrifice, and the glory of the so-called golden age is achieved and obtained by the unity of the most humble and insignificant beings and their courage to sacrifice! "
"Don't tell me that your race has not experienced such a golden age of united efforts and no fear of sacrifice from top to bottom many, many years ago. It belongs to your race's golden age!!"
These senior officials remained silent, but Lu Yuanming knew that they were not protesting silently, but that they could not justify it.
These races also have histories, and after they become human captives, personnel on the human side can naturally receive all kinds of information about their races, from existing ships, high-level personnel, political structures, scientific data, as well as various information about the past of their races. cultural history.
These silver civilizations usually receive the so-called gifts from gods after they are intellectually born, and then they are forced to grow from the primitive society era to the modern civilization or even the interstellar civilization level in a few hundred years. As a result, almost all silver civilizations lacked foundation, lacked the characteristics and imprints of their own civilized race, and at the same time, the technology tree was also incomplete, so there were various deficiencies in the future.
But even so, these silver civilizations still have their own golden age.
In that era, the national unity within the race, the people were happy and inspired, looking forward to a better tomorrow. They looked up at the stars, united as one, and filled with words such as sacrifice, courage, future and so on from top to bottom. It was a short but full of life. An era of hope.
This is an era that every silver species that can reach the level of the third-level cosmic civilization must have. If not, then they would have been wiped out in the second-level cosmic civilization period, and there will never be any exceptions.
"That's the golden age, that's the germination of the golden species!"
Lu Yuanming looked at these senior executives and said: "So what have you been hoping for from the beginning to the end? Since you still guarantee the privileges and enjoyment of your silver senior executives? Using the people of your own race as fuel and food, you also want to use Such a posture is called the golden species? Entering the golden age? How is it possible?"
"Barbarians who lead beasts and eat humans can never be called great!!"
The scene was still silent, with only Lu Yuanming's voice echoing. Suddenly, Glo clapped his hands, and he made a rattling sound with a mechanical synthesized sound. This was the laughter of a race of birds and beasts like the Canyu tribe.
"That's right! Decider, you are right!"
Glo laughed and clapped his hands and said: "Admit it, everyone, we are the scum of the times, we are the Gu kings produced by our race in the struggle between trapped beasts, we are the most despicable, darkest, and most brutal among our race. Dictator, this is not the golden species, nor is it something from the golden age, we are just stubborn stones belonging to the silver species!"
Lu Yuanming still ignored him. He waited for dozens of seconds before continuing: "But I am still willing to give you a chance... Class reconciliation is difficult, but it can be done..."
"This child is the light of change, both for us humans and for you senior Silver Seeds. His birth means that the Silver Seed people who have been destroyed and squeezed to the limit by you still have the last hope. Your race still has hope of being redeemed and waking up from the silver nightmare, so that it can grow up properly. This is the first one, and it will never be the last one."
"I bring this light of hope. This change will never stop. This child will become these children. As the older generations of your Silver people die, new children are born and they will accept In our human education, they will understand the meaning of these words, sacrifice, glory, and hope. They will remember the misery you have brought to your race, but they will not sink into this misery. They will step out of this misery and look forward. Go, just like us humans..."
"And you must protect them before their numbers are large enough and their spirits are strong enough. Isn't it ironic? Protect your guillotine... But this is your fate. Do you think that the evil things you have done are not necessary? repay?"
"Don't worry, you still have time. Before this power grows enough to judge you, there will be at least hundreds to thousands of years for you to atone for your sins, seek their forgiveness, and then achieve your class reconciliation. This is what you can do The key to entering the golden age. Instead of thinking that you can enter the golden palace by following us humans, we humans can only enter with these lights of change, not you who are stained with blood and sin. Residue!”
Lu Yuanming turned around and left his last words at the same time.
"I will watch you, and at the same time...this is also the hope and greatest mercy I leave you!"
