As a senior immortal cultivator, Hei Yeming once thought that he had seen the most cruel and evil things in the universe.
His Taoist heart had long been tempered to be extremely cold, and he would not have any mercy towards inferior races like "original people".
Heart.
But after hearing Lu Qingchen's arrangements for the original people, a certain area in the deepest part of the old immortal cultivator's heart could not help but tremble slightly: "Virtual partners, virtual offspring, virtual life, for these...
Isn't there anything real about 'human beings'?"
"It's their choice."
Lu Qingchen said, "You can't have your cake and eat it too.
When you choose a more relaxed and easy life, you always have to pay a small price.
"Since they will never find out that the world they are in is virtual, what difference does it make between real and fake?
“If they have the ability to discover the falseness and weirdness of the world, and pass numerous tests to prove that they are qualified to live in the real world, then they will naturally get a real partner, real offspring, and a real life.
"This is free choice, this is fair trade, this is a question of whether you choose fish or bear's paw, don't be so greedy, Mingshuai.
"Of course, it is indeed very cruel to cut off a person's bloodline abruptly.
What's more, the mysteries of genes are endless.
Even if the bloodline looks like garbage, who knows if it contains some interesting evolutionary possibilities?
So we will Try to keep every human seed as much as possible and carefully preserve it.
When resources are extremely abundant, these seeds will be artificially bred as new members of the spiritual world.
"In this way, the survival flexibility of human civilization will be greatly improved.
In an era of harsh environment and scarce resources, we can close most of the spiritual world and reduce computing power and resource consumption by more than 90%, leaving only the huge 'human beings' The Seed Vault' and some elites continue to fight in the real world.
"When we discover a new world full of spiritual energy, or master new energy utilization methods, and enter an era of abundant resources, we can quickly expand hundreds or thousands of spiritual worlds and hatch out all the people in the 'seed bank' , starting a new round of screening and evolution.
"Think about it, has this human civilization become stronger in its ability to resist crises?"
Hei Yeming pondered for a moment: "But these newly hatched children have no father and mother.
Their parents were all 'closed' by you during the last period of resource depletion!"
"Small problem, easy to solve."
Lu Qingchen laughed, "Since offspring can be virtual, parents can also be virtual.
We will retain the database and action patterns of their parents, slightly optimize the algorithm, and become more perfect caregivers to ensure a new generation of human beings." , generally developing in a positive, optimistic, and perseverant direction, accelerating the evolution of the entire civilization!”
This solution once again made Hei Yeming stunned for a long time, and continued to ask: "How to solve the resource problem in the real world?
Although the original people are humble, stupid, greedy and lazy, under the careful adjustment of the empire, they can still do most things Heavy work, such as construction, mining, herding, and even front-line combat, all require a large number of original people.
"If human civilization is a big ship sailing in the sea of stars, riding the wind and waves, and moving forward bravely, the immortal cultivators are the captain, helmsman and sailor of the ship, and the original people are the burning raw materials in the power cabin.
Although the captain and sailors are important, they are not Fuel is also out of the question.
"However, in your 'perfect country', you have exiled all the original people into the virtual world, so who should complete the basic work in the real world?
Is it difficult to let the meticulous Are the elected elites going to mine and serve as cannon fodder?”
"Use fully automated machinery."
Lu Qingchen said, "The 'machines' I am talking about are not just metal and crystal products such as psychic puppets, mining spiders, and Taixu warriors, but also include various highly controllable monsters, as well as other Based on human flesh and blood, biochemical humans are transformed after activating various prehistoric cells and strengthening genes.
"Whether they are psychic puppets or cyborgs, they are stronger, smarter, and more loyal.
They are always diligent and hardworking, and they will never be passive or hesitant to move forward.
"The most important thing is that there is no issue of ethics or moral judgment involved here.
No matter how they are squeezed and ravaged, it cannot be said to be half evil, because even though their appearance is similar to that of humans, what is hidden in their brains is not real Souls are just artificial intelligences we call 'foreign spirits', just like artificial intelligences that serve inferior bloodlines in the virtual world."
"This is impossible!"
Hei Yeming blurted out, "It is impossible for artificial intelligence to be developed to this extent.
It is just an auxiliary, and the cost is too high, so we have to use so many damn original people!"
"That's just the empire's view, because you took a detour from the beginning."
Lu Qingchen said, "Precisely because you look down on ordinary people from the beginning and regard more than 99% of the total population as 'original people', you seem to have endless cheap human resources that you can exploit at will.
Naturally, you can't We will vigorously develop technologies in the fields of artificial intelligence and mechanical automation.
“This is a vicious cycle.
The less you pay attention to the development of artificial intelligence and automation technology, the higher the cost of using psychic puppets and biochemical people, and the more you are forced to brutally exploit the ‘original people’.

“After a large amount of resources were invested in how to exploit the original people and formed a set of social customs, business models, laws and systems, no one bothered to study artificial intelligence and automation technology.
"Thousands of years of hard work can't be undone by relying solely on the power within the empire.
Taixu warriors are your limit.
You have no need to develop more advanced artificial intelligence.
“But the Starry Star Federation is different.
We don’t have that many original people here to oppress, and we have crystal brain technology that is on par with the Empire, so from the beginning, we have followed the path of artificial intelligence and automation.
"According to our deduction, as long as all the resources of the entire civilization are invested in research in this field, in a thousand years at most, no matter mining or fighting, no matter grazing or building, no matter transforming the planet or maintaining waterways, most of them will have Standard operating procedures and highly repetitive basic tasks can all be completed by psychic puppets and biochemical humans.
The very few that cannot be completed can also be completed through remote control with spiritual thoughts!"
Hei Yeming watched helplessly as the black jellyfish swallowed his chest and throat, slowly crawled up to his head, and involuntarily whispered: "What kind of world is that!"
"A perfect world!"
Lu Qingchen's voice became more and more provocative, "The vast majority of mediocre, ordinary, cowardly and lazy people can live and die in the virtual world, enjoy life to the fullest, and treat life as a game.
The 'novice mode' and ' In Goldfinger's game, no one will trample and exploit them.
They can be unenterprising or even do whatever they want!
"Those who are motivated, have a strong mind, believe in free will, and desire to 'really live' will practice crazily, continuously improve, and prove themselves on the cruel 'test battlefield'.
In the end, they will be awarded a Or a few of the most powerful bodies, as the 'shell' for them to descend into the real world!
“These elites of human civilization, the ‘real living people’, will engage in the most cutting-edge research, the most creative artistic work, the most arduous battles, and the most mysterious voyages!
"At the same time, a large number of biochemical humans, controllable monsters and psychic puppets are scattered in every corner of the vast territory of human civilization, completing heavy and dangerous basic work.
As Ming Shuai said, they are for the betterment of human civilization.
Take big strides and provide enough 'fuel'!"
"Look, in a world like this, the efficient use of resources by cultivators and the humanitarianism of cultivators are perfectly combined.
This is the future!"
Hei Yeming gasped heavily and made a final struggle: "I, I still don't believe it!
I don't believe in the existence of perpetual motion machines, and I also don't believe that this so-called future will really be so perfect!
"Don't think I don't know.
The virtual world also has costs.
Creating a virtual world and maintaining a huge database requires countless ultra-large-scale crystal brains.
Don't the refining, maintenance and upgrading of these crystal brains consume resources?
What?
"According to what you said, if you want to create a virtual world that is large enough to accommodate most of the human race, the scale of the crystal brain is simply unimaginable!
Regardless of how it is technically achieved, let's say that every second The cost of running the clock is astronomical!
"Consuming astronomical amounts of resources just to keep a bunch of wastes drunk?
How can there be such a good thing!"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a moment of silence in the deep sea before Lu Qingchen's laughter came again.
"The commander-in-chief's words make sense.
Maybe I should apologize to them for my arbitrariness just now.
Fundamentally speaking, there is no waste or garbage.
Even the most despicable human beings have extremely powerful power deep in their souls.
That's him. emotions.
"Humanity's seven emotions and six desires have been suppressed for too long, and we have gradually lost its power.
However, as long as the seal deep in the soul is completely broken, everyone can spurt out the most abundant energy!
"This energy can not only support the operation of their brains and reproductive systems, but can also be continuously supplied to the crystal brain and spiritual network to maintain the operation and upgrade of the entire huge system.
There is even excess for the elites of the real world to absorb.
Make them stronger!"
Hei Yeming's eyes widened: "The power of emotion?
Breaking the seal of the seven emotions and six desires?

I finally understand, what kind of immortal cultivator are you?
You are an extraterrestrial demon who feeds on human emotions. , Black Wind Fleet and Xingyao Federation were all fooled!”
