Chapter 552 Masterpiece
In order to prevent himself from continuing to suffer, Yang Ming decisively resorted to the "custody" method.
But after he left the City of Light, he still couldn't "recover" from Levi's story, and fell into a decadent mood for three days.
Faya.
The only thing Yang Ming admired about Levi Sherman, the founding emperor of the Sherman Empire, was that he did not compromise directly with the Fayats, but fought back in his own way.
But this struggle is like a little white mouse trapped in a transparent eco-box.
The Faya people just watched quietly as the little white mouse struggled, using its sharp teeth to bite the other white mice thrown into the eco-box. Relying on its strong physique, it declared itself the overlord of the Milky Way despite its wounds.
What about yourself?
Am I not also a guinea pig of the Fayats?
A feeling of depression arises spontaneously.
Negative thoughts always pop up in Yang Ming's mind.
For example, does it actually help the earth if you try to do these things?
The Earth was held captive by the Fayya people, and he had no way of contacting the Earth. Even if he risked his life to do these things, the Fayya people could easily erase them. - All he had to do was modify some information.
Don't mention the French and Asian principles to him. That thing is just like the slogan of the United States on Earth, "Private property is sacred and inviolable", with an extremely flexible bottom line.
Civilization is pure, political power is dirty;
Ideals are pure, but human hearts are complex.
The power he now possessed was not even on the same level as that of the Faya people;
Yang Ming felt as if there were many figures around him, and these figures kept approaching him, as if they wanted to devour him completely.
He told Lu and Mimili, then locked himself in the room, sleeping and daydreaming facing the ceiling and the wall.
Even the problems that had been ignored by Yang Ming before began to emerge under the influence of this decadent mood.
He began to think about several questions about the universe, the starry sky and philosophy.
It seems like we have hit a bottleneck.
It’s also like I’m trying to understand some truth on my own.
Of course Yang Ming knew that this was very dangerous for him. Once he got stuck in a dead end, many things would be affected, and his plans and goals would also change, just like Levi's several changes in mentality.
But he had to get through this emotion.
It was like a test, a test before facing the real challenge.
Outside Yang Ming's captain's lounge.
"Lü, what happened to the boss these past two days?"
026 fiddled with the rich and nutritious meal and asked worriedly, "I've never seen the boss so depressed."
"The boss is thinking about a few questions," Lu said in a mature manner. "Young people are like this. Sometimes they get confused and suddenly start thinking about some irrelevant questions. This is a small problem caused by the structure of the human brain, and it happens quite frequently."
“But will the boss be confused?”
026 wondered:
"Our boss has been full of energy from the very beginning. In such a short period of time, he has formed the Falling Wind Alliance and is about to defeat the Sherman Empire."
The simulated projection of Lu appeared at the side and said softly, "This is why the boss is confused."
"Why?"
"I speculate that the essence of this matter is that the boss can't tell whether his current achievements are due to the fact that the Omnic Twilight chose him, the Faya people chose him, or because of his own abilities."
026Thoughtful.
Lu continued, "The boss has a strong sense of self-esteem, and there is no need to worry about him not being able to get out of this situation."
"Why?"
“First, the boss’s ancient god life form was obtained in exchange for the resurrection armor. And if the information I know is correct, it was the boss who took the initiative to expose Posha ’s conspiracy, which led to him being pressed on the operating table by Kigrov to take revenge.
“Second, it was the boss who took the initiative to go to Omnic Twilight.
“This is like the self-redemption of the civilization on Earth where the boss lives.
"Look, why don't the other four greenhouse civilizations know about the existence of the Omnic Twilight?"
Lu laughed:
"Everything should be viewed dialectically. It is precisely because the level of civilization development on Earth is still too low, the overall atmosphere is filled with ideological confrontation and ideological clashes, and they know nothing about the trial of civilization. That is why they look at the stand-alone version of "Abyss" with a pure gaming mentality. They explore freely in this game that brings them technological shock and information impact, and dream of exploring the universe.
“That’s the possibility.
"Free Earth players have found the projection of the Omnic Twilight in the game. The game "Abyss" directly captures the information of the human civilization of the Milky Way, and then conducts its own evolution and deduction, so the Omnic Twilight will also be put into the planetary stand-alone version of "Abyss" in a simplified form.
“It was precisely because the Earth players had no goals that the boss got hold of this information and took the initiative to find the Omnic Twilight.
"This is the self-salvation of Earth civilization, and the boss played a key role in it - he came up with the idea of looking for the intelligent machine Twilight, and tricked Kolev into giving him the first ship."
026 blinked: "That is to say..."
“All the paths were actually chosen by the boss himself, and were walked by the boss.”
Ritsu turned and looked toward the hatch to the lounge.
"If someone else were to take the boss's position, they would just be taking a different path. Every thought in the boss's mind determines his future.
“That’s the possibility of life.
"You can regard the boss's current state as self-reflection before the decisive battle."
026's eyes widened: "Big, big battle?"
"Well," Law sighed softly, "The City of Light has been synchronized with reality. There are hundreds of billions of mature mechanical thinking bodies in it. I just figured out the logic behind it today. Law has already declared war on the Faya people. If Faya insists on killing Levi, she will detonate the entire human civilization."
"this?"
"Don't tell the boss about this, or he will be very stressed," Lu whispered, "and this is just my guess, I haven't found any evidence to support it yet. The key point lies with the boss. The extent of the storm that the Milky Way will experience next depends on the boss's thoughts."
026 looked at the prepared lunch and couldn't help but pursed his lips and frowned.
She whispered, "Then why has Li been trying to break free from Levi?"
"How should I know? I'm not the one in charge!"
Lu rolled his eyes: "I'm under a lot of pressure too, okay? Li has been running the business for tens of thousands of galaxies, and I've only been around for a few years."
"I'm going to deliver food to the boss," 026 said with a smile, "Carbohydrates can make people feel happy. Look at what I prepared for the boss!"
"Well, that's pretty good. Just do this. Unbutton the first button on the top of your shirt, then the second one... unbutton the bottom button and tie it up. Yes, that's right, you must have used technology to make that tiny waist!"
"No way! I've always been keeping in shape, okay!"
026 frowned and looked at her current outfit, which was a bit too sexy.
She muttered, "Miss Mimi is still on the ship," picked up the tray on the back of the tracked robot, and lowered her head to walk into Yang Ming's room.
Lu, who was squinting and raising his eyebrows, thought about it for a moment.
Wait, what does it mean that Miss Mimilee is still on board?
You're OK without Miss Mimilee on board?
Ah! This!
"Little 026 is becoming more and more capable."
…
Emperor Star, Research Institute Module, Dimension Upgrading Laboratory.
Daphne took some time to come over.
She is very busy now , busy establishing her influence in the aristocratic circle, busy respecting her father, and building good relationships with her brothers and sisters.
These are all required courses to become the Empress of the Empire.
Now Levi's ancestor is awake, the powerful "machine" of the empire is running at full power, the network environment is cleaner than ever before, marches and riots in various places are gradually suppressed, and the active volcano called "people" has been blocked again.
This is the great Levi and his empire-wide defense system.
At this moment, Daphne shouldn't have any contact with Director Ino. Now she just needs to coax her father.
But Daphne still came, bringing snacks she cooked herself.
Director Ino frowned as he looked at the projection screen in front of him. The data scrolling on it brought not-so-good feedback.
There was a bright light flashing outside the lounge.
The new data soon appeared in front of Director Ino.
"pity."
Director Ino sighed softly.
"Great uncle," Daphne asked, "did the experiment go wrong?"
"It actually went smoothly," Director Ino said with a smile, "My only pity is that those super modifiers themselves are too weak to update our database. Their upper limit is too low."
Daphne nodded slightly and asked, "Bray, is it really related to Hamton?"
Director Ino's smile faded, and he frowned at Daphne: "You are a little confused about the importance of things now. Is this a question you can ask?"
"Great uncle," Daphne bit her lip lightly, "I know I shouldn't ask about this."
"It's not that you shouldn't ask about these things, you just have to cut ties with the White Phantom."
Ino said:
"The great Levi values you. You are the future emperor of the Sherman Empire. It's that simple. The White Ghost is no longer important. He cannot fight against Levi's ancestors in the Empire. Once the Empire is settled and our military-industrial system is fully operational, the Empire will sweep across the entire galaxy again within 20 to 30 years.
“You are extremely lucky, Daphne. Every time Levi’s ancestor wakes up, it is a period of expansion for the empire, and then the empire will enter a period of prosperity.
"In this regard, you are already better than most emperors in the history of the empire."
Daphne said, "I know. I will work hard and will never let you down. But... is Bly really related to him?"
Director Ino raised his hand to his forehead, shook his head and walked back to his old sofa, picked up the snacks that Daphne brought and tasted them .
"For the sake of this tasty little thing."
Director Ino casually clicked on two projection screens.
In the first projection screen, Bly was imprisoned by alloy, with his mouth open, suspended in a nutrient tank.
Inside the second projection screen was a spacious area with young men and women sitting on the stairs on all four sides. They all had tubes inserted in their backs and mouths, which were life-support devices.
These men and women number in the tens of thousands.
"What is this?" Daphne asked with a frown.
"This is evil, sin, and the ugliness of mankind," Director Ino said in a deep voice, "It is my masterpiece."
Daphne was a little confused.
Director Ino smiled and shook his head:
“This is an experiment centered around the asexual angel Bligh…an experiment I designed myself.
"Although we can produce super-changers continuously, Bly is the only one I made whose brain has been continuously strengthened and who possesses powerful mental power .
“Before this, although there were super-modified people whose brains were enhanced and who had the ability to control others, they were too weak compared to Bligh.
“Then, I came up with a bold idea.
"Our dimensionality-raising experiments have always been strictly following the route set by Levi's ancestors. We have explored for tens of thousands of years and consumed countless resources, but we can only send some insects and other things into the high-dimensional world for a short time. Then they will disintegrate and collapse in the high-dimensional world, showing the form of the explosion you have seen before.
"Why? It's very simple. Three-dimensional life forms cannot bear the information generated in one area of the higher-dimensional world in one instant.
"What about Bligh? Bligh's brain has been continuously enhanced. He is a miracle.
"For other super-changers, the probability of completing the dimensional upgrade is one in a trillion, but for Bly, it is one in a hundred thousand! This makes us feel extremely excited!"
Daphne frowned and said, "One in a hundred thousand...is that very high?"
"Very high," Director Ino said with a smile, "However, we only have one Bligh, not a million. Although I repeated the experiment according to the radiation exposure data when Bligh was born, it only wasted hundreds of thousands of embryos, and none of them survived."
Daphne: ...
“Then, to increase Bly’s success, we developed a program called Artists.”
"Artist?" Daphne was a little confused.
"That's right," Director Ino groaned for a few seconds, "To put it simply, we first shaped Bligh's character, making him cruel and insensitive, and then began to cultivate his interests and hobbies, guiding him step by step to use his abilities to create mental puppets, which are what you see."
Director Ino said calmly:
"Bly always thought that he collected these humans because .
“In fact, we are just deliberately letting him create more subsidiary brains. We are helping him deprive these people of their main consciousness.
"There is an imaginary spiritual paradise in Bligh's brain, which is the place to cultivate his spiritual thinking... Now, everything is ready. Bligh and his collections have maintained spiritual synchronization, and we have built a spiritual network.
“If it is possible for humans to ascend to a higher dimension with this original body, then this is the only chance.
"My ancestor said that I only have one month left, which means that something might change soon, so I pushed forward Bligh's plan. Originally, I wanted to wait until the number of collections accumulated was larger, so that the success rate of the experiment would increase slightly."
Daphne asked softly, "Are these all slaves?"
"Slavery?" Director Ino was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing. "Compared to the matter of human dimensionality, the sacrifice of individual humans is not worth mentioning. If the experiment requires it, I can contribute my life at any time."
Daphne looked at Director Ino's thin, old face.
She didn't say much, just nodded slightly.
“May our experiment be successful.”
Ino smiled gently.
He watched Bligh's figure.
"This should be my only chance in this life."
…
In the airspace near the Emperor Star, the Dongfeng, hiding in a meteorite belt, slowly adjusted its posture.
Yang Ming, wearing only shorts, stretched lazily and walked out of his captain's lounge.
From the corridor, you can see his single bed and Mimili's snow-white back.
Mimili was sleeping soundly, hugging the quilt.
Click.
Yang Ming locked this beautiful scene in his cabin, frowned and asked: "Lü, how long has it been since we got to the City of Light?"
Lu quickly appeared: "This trusteeship lasted for 85 galactic hours."
"So, the buffering of the last short movie is almost finished?"
Yang Ming's eyes lit up:
"I'll log in and see what Levi's dimensionality upgrade is all about from a rational perspective... The only thing that can attract me now is the higher-dimensional world."
"Uh," Lu whispered, "According to the laws of physics, it is impossible to depict a higher-dimensional world in the current dimension. Boss, your hopes may be dashed."
Yang Ming frowned and said, "Is this true? I've waited so long, isn't it just to see how Levi will directly confront the Faya people?"
"It is very likely that Li did not ascend to a higher dimension. It was Levi who ascended to a higher dimension. Or, in other words, it was the mind body shared by Levi and Li."
The law chanted a few words:
"Boss, I have something to report to you. I have found some evidence regarding... the current human civilization in the Milky Way."
Boss Yang was a little confused.
