Section 672 Countermeasures

There is only the wreckage of "Explorer One" here. To use the perspective on the earth, it is actually a big garbage pile.

However, garbage also has its own meaning. At least, these wreckages are Yeying's most reliable and stable food source at present. The spacecraft explosion threw a lot of things out, forming a vast piece of debris around it. Corpse fragments move in the air at every moment. The reason why Yeying wanted to make small ejectors was to obtain more flesh and blood from the wreckage. Although corpse eating sounded disgusting, it was a necessary means to maintain life under the circumstance.

There was a widely circulated story on the earth: two poor people are neighbors, each ploughing a barren land. Due to the small output, both of them were deeply troubled by hunger and poverty. One of the poor people decided to change their situation, give up all this, and go to other places to make a living, while the other felt that this practice was full of danger and decided to stay and continue to live a fixed life. A few years later, the poor people who went out to make a living became rich, and the poor people who stayed still did not have any improvement.

Everyone who hears the story thinks that the poor who leave are smart is their best inspirational goal. But few people have thought that leaving means change. When they are uncertain about the future direction, this change often means disaster. You may starve to death on the road to finding opportunities, or may die of some accident. Of course, everyone yearns for success and is willing to work and sweat. However, opportunities are always rare, even more precious than giant pandas. The poor who stays in the original place is not stupid, but he sees hidden dangers and feels the exchange ratio between gains and losses. He is not a fool, but he is just unwilling to get involved in danger. Although he is still poor and hungry, it is always much better than dying on the spot.

The current situation of Ye Ying is similar to the two poor people in the story.

Leaving the wreckage of the spacecraft, you may have a better survival basis.

At the same time, it also means that it may die completely.

On this question, black particles can never give a real answer. They are not omniscient and omnipotent, they are just a cell with wisdom. Of course, black particles do not want Ye Ying, the host, to die, but they are also taking risks, hoping to get a better living environment. They are not sure what they can find on that asteroid, at most, in terms of food understanding, they have special understandings that exceed Ye Ying.

They pointed out the road, but did not know if there was a trap on this road? Is it a cliff at the end? Or is it a happy heaven?

Ye Ying did not continue to ask questions. It was meaningless and even more boring than quarrels between the two mutes. However, the biological perception ability of the black particles is indeed much sharper than that of themselves.

Can I trust you?

What is the chance of success?

Countless questions emerged from Ye Ying's mind. She thought for a long time and did not notice that the clock on her arm had rotated hundreds of times. It was not until the clockwork was finished and the "Kata" sound was made, which awakened Ye Ying from the chaotic and vague thinking.

The existence of the clock is just to mark the time. Yeying believes that it is not worth consuming energy in this regard, so he uses the most primitive clockwork as the driving force.

She sent a questioning thought to the black particles: "That star is too far from me. Tell me, how should I pass?"

Black particles have no answer.

A nut floated slowly from the side of Yeying's left shoulder, very slowly. The sunlight from afar illuminated the side of the nut, reflecting a faint metallic luster.

The distance is very close, less than five meters.

There was no sign, Ye Ying suddenly saw his hair ejaculated like this, and firmly grasped the nut floating in the air.

"Hair" only follows the commonly used name of humans on Earth. They are bodies that grow from Ye Ying's head and exist in a linear form. Just like the tentacles of an octopus, they are more delicate than that kind of thing. The ejection of this hair is not the original intention of Ye Ying, but the most direct way of expression of the body driven by the consciousness of black particles.

Why did it grab this nut?

This is a new question.

Ye Ying took off the nut from her hair, held it with her fingers, approached her one-eye, and looked at it carefully.

The nut itself is nothing special. The hexagonal appearance and the internal circular holes are distributed with shallow marks that circumferentially. It was originally part of the spacecraft and was inconspicuous. No matter where the hull is located, objects of the same model can be found.

Why is this?

What exactly do black particles want to tell me?

Many questions have not been answered.

Ye Ying felt that the black particles in her body had an indescribable surging change. Of course, they knew the answer, but they could not let themselves understand what they wanted to express through conscious communication. There was nothing more annoying than this. Just like when you saw someone's feet were a deep abyss, and hurriedly wanted to tell him to stay away from danger, but the other party didn't understand your intention at all, and he was still scolding you as an idiot, a fool, and a lunatic.

What do you want to say?

What does this nut mean?

Ye Ying's mind was filled with confusion and fell into long-term contemplation again.

Wang Qinian is undergoing changes.

For Tong Yanfeng, who is far away on the Red Dragon 6 immigration planet, observing the terrifying dean regularly every day has become a fixed task.

Wang Qinian is indeed very terrible. It is like this on Earth, but it is still like this now. No one thought that this old guy would become a planet. Of course, this statement is not accurate. It should be that he swallowed all the minerals of the planet itself and used mechanical production methods to recreate an extremely large steel body.

Since two years ago, Tong Yanfeng discovered that the planet named "Director" has been continuously launching spacecraft.

Yes, you read that right, it's a spaceship.

This kind of thing is not difficult for Wang Qinian. He can freely produce any mechanical device he wants, whether it is a billion-ton press or a completely insulated vacuum operating compartment. His body is incredibly huge, with countless metals and refined substances filling it with, and there are so many spare materials that cannot be counted. Speaking of which, Wang Qinian was inspired by Heg. From beginning to end, he felt that the robot form was not safe and there were too many things that could threaten him. In order to ensure that he was not hurt, the old fat man who was afraid of death used his abnormal method to wrap himself firmly in a pile of metal materials.

Meng Qi once discussed this issue with Wang Qinian. The old fat man's view is very direct: huge means powerful. Only huge things can be said to exist almost eternally in the universe. For example, carnivores with huge sizes must exist for longer than vegetarian populations. The reason why lions on the grasslands have a deterrent effect on hyenas is the same. If the concept of hugeness continues to expand, the ability of the planet is stronger than that of the species that are attached to them. They exist for more than imagined, but there are even larger objects, such as stars, black holes, and many objects that have not been observed by humans but do exist.

Wang Qinian's huge transformation process has attracted many people's attention and has become strongly vigilant.

He was originally just a human, but he swallowed the entire laboratory and the entire Imperial Academy. The old fat man was not satisfied, and Yu Qian swallowed the entire planet... This process was even more exciting than the gluttonous snake game, and also made imperial scholars realize some potential and possible crisis.

When François walked into the minister's office, Tong Yanfeng was looking at the message just transmitted from the holographic screen, his expression full of confusion.

"Your Mightiness"

With a soft call, Tong Yanfeng's gaze shifted from the screen and bet on François.

He was a tall and thin middle-aged man wearing the blue uniform of a senior imperial administrative officer, and had crystal eyes on his nose. He was too thin, causing his cheeks to sink deeply into it. His eye sockets were very deep, and his whole body looked imposing and full of cold and harsh momentum that made people look up to him.

Tong Yanfeng slowly moved his arms and told him lightly: "Tell me, I'll listen."

"We must terminate the energy delivery of Red Dragon 3, which is the planet "Dean"."

Francois pushed his glasses, opened the portable computer on his wrist, and said seriously: "I suggest... no, I must tell you that you must terminate the energy delivery. Otherwise, things will get worse."

The so-called energy delivery is an agreement between Wang Qinian and Tong Yanfeng and others when he first annexed the entire Imperial Research Institute and gradually became the dominant of the Red Dragon 3 planet. At that time, Wang Qinian could not rationally use the energy of his planet by relying on his own strength. He asked Tong Yanfeng to set up tidal devices on several nearby immigrant planets, and effectively supplement himself through the airflow guidance of the planet and the energy flow generated between the terrain.

This situation has continued to this day. Of course, Wang Qinian no longer needs energy from other planets, and has formed a large energy perpetual device inside himself. Although the energy delivery situation has always existed, both François, the current vice president of the Empire's research institute, and Tong Yanfeng, are very clear that foreign planetary energy has been dispensable to Wang Qinian.

“This is not a good idea.”

Tong Yanfeng slowly frowned and leaned back on the chair: "I know you made such suggestions out of consideration for the use of the Empire's energy. But you have to understand that the dean has a transcendent status. When His Majesty the Emperor left, he had special instructions. His Majesty asked us to obey all the arrangements of the dean and obey every order of his order. Have you forgotten all these things?"

Although Tong Yanfeng's tone and voice were very ordinary, it was no different from the harshest accusation to François. His white cheeks quickly turned red and his expression was full of anger.

"You actually doubt my loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor?"

Because of excitement, François's voice trembled slightly: "I have also injected the blood of His Majesty the Emperor. My belief in His Majesty is even deeper than anyone else. Do you think I am saying these words for myself? Regent, you have been in the office for too long. You should go out for a walk, see what has happened, and listen to everyone's opinions."

Tong Yanfeng was a little confused: "Everyone's opinion? What does it mean?"

"We are all "worker bees" and are all absolutely loyal supporters."

François's mood gradually calmed down and he explained the facts in a calm tone: "Each of us is flowing with the same blood as His Majesty the Emperor. It is the gift of our greatest leader and the foundation for maintaining this group. I admit that the Dean does have a lot of knowledge we have never imagined, and his wisdom is unattainable in this world. He created many incredible things and proposed a large number of advanced theories. To be honest, the appearance of Dean Wang has advanced the overall technological level of the Red Dragon Empire for centuries. In this regard, his achievements are indeed unparalleled and are enough to be admired."

"But on the other hand, Dean Wang did have many negative effects."

François changed his tone: "He is not a real human, but a super living body that combines humans and machinery. While worshiping him, I also felt deeply afraid. It was one day more than ten years ago when I came home from get off work and saw my four-year-old son playing games in the room. He took apart the building blocks and re-stitched them into various objects of different shapes. Aircraft, tanks, houses, boats... At that time, I suddenly realized that this was exactly what Dean Wang is doing now. He is an alternative building block that can freely change forms, and it is also continuously producing more building block materials. We all know what the Dean looked like when he first came to this world. Now, he is no longer a human, but a planet."

Tong Yanfeng had not thought about these things before. It was just the first time that he said it from another person without any restraint. Tong Yanfeng couldn't help but take a deep breath and lowered his voice: "Speak on, I'll listen."

"It is not surprising that humans will rot when they die. I want to live forever. I am not disagreeing with semi-biological and semi-mechanical technology. I just feel that the dean has done a little too much in this regard. Even if he really wants to do this, he should adopt a more secret approach, or ask us to keep it confidential and provide more help and support."

François paused and said in great seriousness: "The reason why secrets exist is to prevent it from spreading among the people. Most members of the empire are "worker bees", but not everyone has the qualifications to know the secret. Dean Wang has done too obvious in this regard. Now, we all know that he is the planet above his head, but he has thought about what kind of impact this will have on others."

Tong Yanfeng narrowed his eyes: "Impact?"

"He's on top of our heads."

François's next words obviously have nothing to do with this sentence, but the meaning they want to express is very obvious: "The reason why ants are despised is because they are too small to pose a threat to us. We will value a cat or a dog. Because they are very interesting and obedient, they can be used as toys, or loyal and cute pets. For beasts like lions, everyone will feel instinctively fear when they first see them, because we all know that lions eat meat and like to eat people. But if it is an attitude

Friendliness shows that lions who have no interest in meat and prefer cabbage and carrots and tofu will be like this friend who does not threaten them. However, tolerance and patience are at most. If this non-human creature continues to increase in size, exceeds elephants, or even reaches a height of hundreds of meters, just like several skyscrapers overlapping, then even if it is extremely kind in nature and so cautious that it can't even stand trampling an ant to death, we still don't regard it as a friend, but only think it is a potential enemy."

François's words are not difficult to understand. For humans, size means the most obvious difference between goodwill between enemies and our enemies. Taking the vegetarian animal, as an example, as a vegetarian animal, as a example, although it knows that its temperament is gentle and the chance of actively hurting people is very low, whether it is active or passive, humans are wary of elephants. This is actually not difficult to understand. This huge creature can easily trample someone to death by lifting its feet. This kind of power cannot be resolved by any degree of kindness. Unless you can control it, lock it tightly with iron chains, and hold the knife on anytime and anywhere, if the other party has any abnormal movement, it can kill its life with one knife before it has been caused.

Humans have never truly felt at ease with things that can be mastered by themselves. This nature can never be erased. Because of this, the human population has developed professional tamers. With the existence of this special profession, when we approach beasts or giant elephants, our psychological fear will not be so strong, but will become relatively calm. However, no tamer dares to guarantee absolute safety. Once the beast goes crazy or the elephant doesn't buy your account, the tamers will have to die on the spot. As long as this happens, there will be no chance of reconciliation between the two biological populations.

François’s idea is based on this consideration. Elephants are elephants after all. Among those who like to keep pets, there are the most common people who keep cats and dogs because they almost pose no threat to humans. Some people also like special pets such as pythons and lizards. They all have common characteristics: their size will not exceed that of adults. As long as they like, we can kill them anytime and anywhere.

There have been beautiful stories between humans and whales in history. But that is a minority after all. This requires a premise that can never be reversed - an alternative species that can become friends must have a lower level of wisdom than humans. They can have simple thinking consciousness, but they will never produce more evolutionary wisdom.
