Some people were surprised by the voice that suddenly appeared in their minds, while others were accustomed to it. The latter were people who were accustomed to using Atlantis equipment. This method of communicating directly in the spirit was not What a novelty.
"The first stage of transformation mission is to promote the respective civilizations to enter the Bronze Age." As the voice fell, everyone found that they had the feeling of the body, and they came to a world where it was difficult to distinguish between true and false. Here, they were born into a tribe of the same race as them. Everything around them seemed like their race was in a state of ignorance. Everyone used simple stone tools. Of course, different races also had different tools in the primitive era. , the mission of most races is to push civilization to the Bronze Age, but some races are born on planets that may not have copper mined on the surface at all. The mission they receive is to enter their primitive civilization, which is equivalent to bronze. era of era.
Before participating in the selection, no one knows what tasks they face. Those who participate in each round of selection must sign a confidentiality agreement. After being unsuccessful, most of the memories of the selection process will even be deleted.
Therefore, many people are at a loss when facing the task at hand. Of course, there are also some advanced civilizations. After participating in the selection in front of them, they were even more amazed by the powerful technology of Atlantis. They carefully observed the bonfires in the tribe and could see the beating of the flames. Above the flames, the airflow of different temperatures causes distortions during the flow. At least with their current bodies, they cannot tell whether what they see in front of them is reality or illusion.
Promoting the advancement and development of civilization step by step, for the participants, it is not only a test of their perseverance, but also a familiarity with how intelligent creatures survive in a cruel natural environment.
Those who participate in the selection will use their actions to experience what kind of social form they can best survive in the cruel nature.
Tony used his actions to stage a set of classic negative teaching materials for himself. As the most famous inventor on earth in this era, Tony was confident that given enough time after he came to the primitive era, he could build a steel suit in the cave, let alone the Bronze Age. Among them, the Ark Reactor and Mark Generation were built.
As for the group of primitive people with worrying IQs around him, he simply left them aside. As a young man in the tribe, Tony should have participated in the beast hunting, but he chose to go out alone.
Find the ore you need. Then there was nothing more. Tony was bitten to death by a wild beast when he went out alone, and everything started from scratch.
Tony: "..."
"Too bad luck. It seems that we have to make some primitive weapons first." The second time he tried to make primitive bows and arrows, but when he tried to make them, he discovered that in this environment with nothing, even if he made them Bows and arrows are also quite difficult, and it takes him half a day to even twist out a rope.
The bow he finally made could only be used to hunt rabbits and could not deal with wild beasts at all, so on the third day he chose to change the material to make a stronger bow.
However, because he did not participate in the hunt for three consecutive days, Tony was kicked out of the tribe on the third day and lost his food source. Tony, who only had a broken bow in his hand, was once again bitten to death by a wild beast.
After dying several times in the tribe, Tony finally realized that the group of guys with worrying IQs around him were actually the basis for ensuring his survival in the primitive world. Without them, he would not be able to survive on his own. It is possible to survive in the primitive world.
Tony, who has always believed that technology is omnipotent, now deeply realizes that the reason why he can focus on technology on earth is because more people have created such conditions for him, so that he does not need to worry about anything other than scientific research. Without such conditions, it would be impossible for him to build his own steel suit from scratch, even if it took him a lifetime.
...Although Tony made a very classic mistake, at least his side performed well. Not every participant can tolerate failure again and again.
After the contestants spent their subjective time for a week, more than 30% of the participants had already chosen to withdraw.
Although less than five minutes may have passed in the real world, they can no longer stand the life in the primitive world. There is a lack of entertainment, poor living conditions, and they need to face various dangers, whether it is cold or hot. Or the itching caused by mosquitoes, these will be faithfully reflected in the minds of the participants, and not everyone can tolerate these.
And those who can't even endure these are obviously absolutely unqualified and will be the first to be eliminated.
Lan Nuo is silently observing all the participants, and Evolution Space is also observing Lan Nuo. Evolution Space can be said to be quite satisfied with what they have done. You are already mature to the fourth level. Naturally Need to learn to train new people.
Under a system like the evolutionary space, people who grow up and reach this level will naturally embark on the same path. He did not take the initiative to guide Lan Nuo, but they have now begun to travel through countless worlds. between
"Space systems" developed. Developing to the Bronze Age is only the first step in the selection of all participants in the Transformation Space. According to the estimates of Lanno, those who have the patience and perseverance to achieve this step will only occupy 10% at most. As for the subsequent development, it will After filtering out more and more people, there may only be one or two, or even fewer, who can finally qualify as elucidators.
Steve Rogers' performance during the selection process was quite good as the Lannos had expected. Although he did not have as much knowledge or as wild ideas as Tony, he still had opportunities to try again and again. He has enough patience to promote the development of civilization step by step.
At first, he also made some mistakes and applied some modern ideas directly to these ancient people. In front of primitive people, so-called freedom was meaningless at all.
Steve tried to let them survive freely, but the result was that the times did not advance at all. The items he invented that transcended the times were occupied by the stronger people in the tribe, and eventually developed into what he hated most. Poisonous vegetables rule, and in front of the most powerful primitive man, the rest of the people are like slaves.
After several consecutive failures, he gradually concluded the rule. When primitive society emerges from the Bronze Age, it will indeed enter slavery first. This is not something that can be reversed by his will, but is determined by the productivity itself. If you want to It was very difficult to prevent the birth of slavery. He had no way to convince his tribe to join as equals after defeating other tribes, and he had no way other than war to make other tribes recognize his leadership position. .
When the cost of raising a slave was less than its output, the birth of slavery seemed inevitable. Steve successfully pushed the era to the Bronze Age, but was not satisfied with it.
Without even waiting for the release of the next task, he continued to push the times forward. The kind part of his character made him unable to accept the existence of a slave.
Therefore, he hopes to push society to a higher level to get rid of this last resort system.
Few people have the motivation to actively promote the development and progress of the times. As expected, 90% of the people were stuck in the first mission, or lost patience, or could not stand the harsh natural environment, and chose to quit voluntarily, while those who successfully entered the second round of missions , and only a very few have the will to actively push the times forward.
Some of them even began to enjoy the slave age and the feeling of being able to kill and take other people's lives. Even now, there are a large number of slaves in the universe.
For example, a collector actually has a lot of collections of intelligent creatures, which are races that are about to become extinct. In order to preserve the last seeds of these races, he will collect them as collections, but to him, these people, In fact, it is equivalent to being a slave.
Therefore, there are many races in the universe that accept and even enjoy the feeling of being a slave master. But Steve was unwilling. In the process of promoting the development of the times, what he was happiest about was actually the experience of fighting with the tribesmen in the wilderness and confronting nature. At that time, everyone was closely united. Together, only in this way can we survive in the harsh natural environment and maximize everyone's abilities.
But after he became rich, the originally equal world became unequal, which made him doubt what he had learned.
The following era will make him feel more deeply in this regard. Even if he emphasizes that all people are created equal in the following era, if he still insists on the so-called inviolability of private property, let the invisible hand of the market control everything. , nominally created equal, will soon become unequal.
In the Iron Age, which was slightly more advanced than the Bronze Age, the family unit could already support itself. Under his influence, slaves gradually regained their freedom, but it did not take long as the land was allowed to be bought and sold freely. , land annexation occurred quickly, and new people became destitute. Inequality once again appeared between them and those who owned a large amount of land, although this time the contradiction was not as sharp as between slaves and slave owners. , but it’s still not what Steve wants to see.
In order to change all this, he has lost count of how many times he has died, and the number of people who continue to push the times forward with him has become less and less. Although it is said that he died, it does not mean that he has to start from scratch. Every time he completes a After the advancement of the era, there will be an archive, and you can start developing after the advancement of the previous era, but this is still very torture. The most important thing is that when society develops to a certain height, you suddenly find that you did what you did in the primitive era. A certain choice has had such a huge impact that the current era cannot continue, so the current archive must be deleted, return to the original era, and start all over again.
Many people were dissuaded by this step. In the primitive era, no one could guarantee that they would not make mistakes. It was probably because of some of their actions that they left some unchangeable traditions to future generations. , causing the former self to become an obstacle to the times.
There are too few people who have always been motivated to promote the development of the times like Steve. After witnessing the tragic experiences of slaves, sharecroppers, and even factory workers again and again, the new era he wanted to build , also gradually changed from the original appearance of the country of hope.
The reason why human beings can come out of the wilderness is precisely because people are united together. In the new era in the future, if we give up this unity, we will choose to stagnate and lose the driving force for the advancement of race and civilization. , consumed in the internal friction between people.
Steve has lost count of how many times he has reopened, even going back to the source of his history, starting from the primitive people in the tribe.
At the beginning, he was self-righteous in the primitive era and left behind too many ideas, and those ideas gradually sprouted and eventually became an obstacle to the development of the times, making it impossible to realize the era he wanted to build in which everyone's dreams are not suppressed. , and every time he looks back, he will make various mistakes. In this way, he changes again and again, allowing himself to promote the development of the times closer to his ideal appearance.
Gradually, I have forgotten that what I participated in is actually just a selection, and I regard this as a world that really needs to be changed and promoted by myself.
But looking back at this moment, there were only a handful of people still walking on the same track as him.
Their social systems may be slightly different, but their ultimate goal is to shape the core of civilization through the institutional culture they have built, so that every individual in their civilization has the opportunity to achieve success through their own courage and perseverance. own dreams.
Steve finally pushed the era to the era of entering the starry sky, which has surpassed the human civilization on land where he is now. Although it has not yet reached his ideal state, the current situation of mankind is much better than that on land.
Just when he wanted to take another step into the starry sky, the world around him quietly stopped, and a familiar yet unfamiliar voice came to his ears: "Congratulations, in a long time, you have completed your study of civilization. He has also completed his own transformation. There are only four people like you who have reached this point. You are already qualified to take over the title of elucidator."... When Steve returned to the real world Sometimes, he couldn't help but feel like he was in another world, and when he recalled what kind of world he lived in, he subconsciously wanted to go back three hundred years ago, when this country was just founded, and redirect his history. .
