As a senior immortal, yemening once thought that he had seen the cruelest and most evil things in the universe. He had long been hardened to be ruthless and would not show any kindness to the inferior race of "original people".


    However, hearing Lu Qingchen''s arrangement for the original people, the old cultivator could not help shivering in the deepest part of his heart: "virtual partner, virtual offspring, virtual life, for these..." people ", is there nothing real?"


    "It''s their choice."


    Lu Qingchen said, "you can''t have both fish and bear''s paw. When you choose a more relaxed and easy life, you have to pay a small price.


    "Since they will never find themselves in a virtual world, what''s the difference between true and false?


    "If they have the ability to discover the falseness and strangeness of the world, and pass many tests to prove that they are qualified to live in the real world, they will naturally get a real partner, a real offspring and a real life.


    "It''s a free choice. It''s a fair deal. It''s a question of whether you choose fish or bear''s paw. Don''t be so greedy, Mingshuai.


    "Of course, it''s really cruel to cut off a person''s blood. What''s more, the mystery of genes is endless. Even if it looks like junk blood, who knows if there is some interesting evolutionary possibility? Therefore, we will try our best to keep the seeds of each human, carefully preserve them, and when resources are extremely abundant, we will artificially breed these seeds as new members of the spirit 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, reduce the computing power and resource consumption by more than 90%, leaving only a huge" human seed bank "and some elites to continue to fight in the real world.


    "When we discover a new world full of psionic powers, or master new energy utilization methods, and enter the era of abundant resources, we can quickly launch hundreds of spiritual worlds, hatch all the people in the seed bank, and start a new round of screening and evolution.


    "Think about it. Has such a human civilization become more capable of confronting crises?"


    "But these newly hatched children have no father or mother, and their parents have been" closed "by you in the last resource exhaustion period


    "Small problems, easy to solve."


    Lu Qingchen laughs, "since offspring can be virtual, parents can also be virtual. We will keep their parents'' database and action mode, slightly optimize the algorithm, and become a more perfect nurturer, so as to ensure that the new generation of human beings will develop in a positive, optimistic and indomitable direction, and accelerate the evolution of the whole civilization!"


    This solution, once again, stunned the night for a long time, and continued to ask, "how can we solve the problem of resources in the real world? Although primitive people are humble, stupid, greedy and lazy, they can still do most of the heavy work under the careful modulation of the Empire. Construction, mining, herding and even the first-line fighting all need a lot of primitive people to fill in.


    "If human civilization is a big ship sailing in the sea of stars, riding the wind and waves, marching forward bravely, the immortal cultivator is the captain, helmsman and sailor of the ship, and the original person is the raw material burning in the power cabin. Although the captain and sailor are important, they can''t do without fuel.


    "However, in your" perfect country ", you have exiled all the original people to the virtual world. Who should do the basic work in the real world? Is it difficult for the elites who are carefully selected to mine and serve as cannon fodder? "


    "With fully automated machinery."


    Lu Qingchen said, "what I mean by machinery is not only metal and crystal products such as psionic puppets, mining spiders and Taixu warfighters, but also various highly controllable monsters and biochemical human beings based on human flesh and blood, after activating various kinds of wild cells and strengthening genes.


    "Whether they are psychic puppets or biochemical human beings, they are stronger, smarter, more loyal, always diligent and hardworking. There will never be any slackness or hesitation.


    "The most important thing is that there is no ethical or moral judgment involved here. No matter how they are oppressed or trampled, they are not half evil, because even if their appearance is similar to that of human beings, what lies in their brains is not the real soul, just artificial intelligence, which we call" supernatural. ", It''s like artificial intelligence in the virtual world serving those inferior blood vessels. "


    "It''s impossible!"


    "AI can''t be developed to this level, it''s just a kind of assistance, and the cost is too high, so we have to use so many damned primitive people!" he blurted out


    "That''s just the imperial view, because you took a detour in the beginning."


    Lu Qingchen said, "just because you looked down upon ordinary people from the beginning and regarded people who accounted for more than 99% of the total population as" original people ", you seem to have endless cheap human resources that can be arbitrarily squeezed. Naturally, you will not vigorously develop technologies in the field of artificial intelligence and mechanical automation.


    "This is a vicious circle. The less you pay attention to the development of artificial intelligence and automation technology, the higher the cost of using psionic puppets and bio humans, and the more you are forced to brutally crush the" original people. ".


    "After a lot of resources are invested in how to crush the original people and form a set of social customs, business models, laws and systems, the more nobody studies artificial intelligence and automation technology.


    "The accumulation of thousands of years is hard to return. It can''t be changed just by the internal power of the Empire. Taixu warfighter is your limit. You don''t need to develop more advanced artificial intelligence.


    "But Xingyao Federation is different. We don''t have so many primitive people to oppress here, and we have the same crystal brain technology as the Empire. So from the beginning, we took the path of artificial intelligence and automation.


    "According to our deduction, as long as we put all the resources of the whole civilization into the research in this field, in a thousand years at most, whether mining or fighting, whether grazing or building, whether transforming the planet or maintaining the waterway, the vast majority of them have standard operating procedures and highly repetitive basic work, which can be completed by psionic puppets and biochemical people, A few things that can''t be done can also be done by remote control of mind! "


    Night Ming watched the black jellyfish devour his chest and throat, slowly climbing up to his head, involuntarily whispering: "what kind of world is that?"


    "A perfect world!"


    Lu Qingchen''s voice is becoming more and more provocative. "Most of the mediocre, ordinary, cowardly and lazy people can enjoy their lives in the virtual world. They regard life as a game that has opened the" novice mode "and" golden finger ". No one will trample and crush them. They can do whatever they want to do and even act recklessly!


    "Those who are self-motivated, have a strong mind, believe in free will, and long for" being really alive "will practice crazily, improve constantly, and prove themselves in the cruel" test battlefield "everywhere. Finally, they will be given one or several of the most powerful bodies as the" shell "for them to come to the real world!


    "These elites of human civilization, the" real living people ", will be engaged in the most cutting-edge research, the most creative art work, the most arduous battle and the most mysterious voyage!


    "At the same time, a large number of biochemical human beings, controllable monsters and psionic puppets are scattered in every corner of the vast territory of human civilization, completing heavy and dangerous basic work. As Ming Shuai said, they provide enough" fuel "for the great stride forward of human civilization!"


    "Look, in such a world, the efficient use of the resources of the immortals and the humanitarianism of the practitioners are perfectly combined. This is the future!"


    The dark night is breathing heavily, carrying on the final struggle: "I, I still don''t believe it! I don''t believe in the existence of perpetual motion machine. I also don''t believe that the so-called future will be so perfect!


    "Don''t think I don''t know that virtual world also has cost. To create a virtual world and maintain a huge database, we need countless super large-scale crystal brains. Don''t we need to consume resources to refine, maintain and upgrade these crystal brains?


    "If you want to create a virtual world that is big enough to fit most of human beings, the scale of crystal brain is almost unimaginable! No matter how technically it is implemented, its operating cost per second is astronomical!


    "Consume astronomical resources, just to make a group of waste drunk? What a good thing


    Once the words came out, there was a moment of silence in the deep sea, and then Lu Qingchen''s laughter came again.


    "Mingshuai is right. Maybe I should apologize to them for my arbitrariness just now. Fundamentally speaking, there is no waste and rubbish. Even the most despicable human beings, there is a very powerful power in the soul - his emotion.


    "The seven emotions and six desires of human beings have been suppressed for too long, and even we gradually lose its power. But as long as we completely break the seal in the depths of the spirit, everyone can gush out the most abundant energy!


    "This energy can not only support the operation of their brain and reproductive system, but also can be continuously supplied to the crystal brain and spiritual network to maintain the operation and upgrading of the whole huge system. There is even surplus energy for those elites in the real world to absorb and make them stronger!"


    The night widened its eyes: "the power of emotion? Break the seal of seven emotions and six desires? Besides, you mentioned the blood god son just now... I finally understand that you are not an immortal. You are an extraterritorial demon who feeds on human emotions. The black wind fleet and the star shining Federation are all deceived! "
