"So, that's why you chose us?"

Carter nodded and said, "The last time we met, I mentioned that with intelligent civilization, it is impossible to defeat a super existence like Becca. The only way to destroy them is for them to kill each other, and it is necessary to unite intelligent civilizations. ”

"What does it matter?"

"What do you think would happen if there was only one intelligent civilization in the galaxy?"

Chu Tianjiang was slightly stunned, and then showed a look of surprise.

"Although there are three super existences of Beka, Abaka and Greka, but in terms of strength, Becca has an extremely obvious advantage, so any intelligent civilization will unconsciously hope to cooperate with Becca when planning for the future, or be selected by Becca. Actually, this is also true. So far, although the Greca family has the most intelligent civilizations, the Becca family's intelligent civilizations have the strongest strength, especially those created by members of the family council. These intelligent civilizations did not choose to be independent, that is, they did not betray the Becca family even though they knew that the Tupis were dominant and could not achieve great integration with the Tupis people, which had something to do with this, that is, they all wanted to become the intelligent civilization chosen by the Becca. ”

Chu Tianjiang didn't speak, but he knew that Carter's statement was not wrong.

"It is precisely because almost all intelligent civilizations have no choice that they have to serve the super existence and become an accomplice of the super existence. We cannot blame those intelligent civilizations for this, but we cannot ignore the reality either. That is, if there is only one intelligent civilization left, then the choice is not in the hands of those super beings, but in our hands, and it will be up to us to decide who will be the ultimate winner of the family war, and it will be up to us to rule the galaxy, and we will no longer need to look at the faces of those super beings. ”

"It's only temporary."

"That's right, this is indeed temporary, and it only works during the family war. The problem is that this will at least allow us to take the initiative in the family war. ”

Chu Tianjiang nodded slightly, indicating that he understood what Carter meant.

"It's a shame that we missed the best of times."

"What do you mean?"

"A long time ago, we realized the importance of realizing the great integration of intelligent civilizations, and at the end of the intelligent civilization war, that is, when we eliminated the other intelligent civilizations in this spiral arm, we originally had an opportunity to realize the great integration of intelligent civilizations."

"This ......"

"At that time, the war of intelligent civilizations in the three families had not ended, and human beings had already formed an alliance of intelligent civilizations in the Beka family, pointing out the direction for the realization of the great integration of intelligent civilizations. In the Abarca family, there is also a creator alliance, and the wisdom civilization of the Greca family is integrated. At that time, if we marched into the three families, it would be possible to achieve a great fusion of wisdom and civilization. ”

"Even then, the chances are extremely slim."

"That being said, it was an opportunity, and it hasn't happened since. After the outbreak of the family war, the contradictions between the families replaced the contradictions between the intelligent civilizations, or in other words, became the main contradiction between the intelligent civilizations of different families. In this case, even if we win the family war, it is impossible for the wisdom civilization of other families to merge with us, and it is impossible to achieve the great integration of wisdom civilization. In addition, if the Tawakh become the victors of the family war, it means that we have wiped out all the intelligent civilizations of the other families, and there is no basis for the great integration of intelligent civilizations. ”

"This ......"

Carter sighed and said, "Do we miss that opportunity for what we are doing?" ”

Chu Tianjiang was slightly stunned, then shook his head.

"Actually, you should know the way, or be able to think of it."

"You mean, for fear of being assimilated by other intelligent civilizations?" Ali asked.

Carter nodded and said: "Although we already know that in the galaxy, the Tavagh people are the most powerful, and no intelligent civilization can compare with us, even the Trulli people, they are definitely not comparable to us, so in the process of the great integration of intelligent civilizations, it should be that we integrate other intelligent civilizations, not be fused by other intelligent civilizations, but this does not mean that we have no worries." The most important thing is that compared to all the intelligent civilizations in the galaxy, the Tawakh are actually not powerful, at least the Tawah people do not have an advantage in the number of individuals. Even if we can integrate with other intelligent civilizations, we will inevitably be influenced by other intelligent civilizations. ”

"It will make you lose your traditions."

"Exactly." Carter sighed and said, "In a sense, maintaining tradition is the foundation of our control of the Tawah civilization, and maintaining tradition itself is a core part of the Tawah civilization. Obviously, as long as we integrate with other intelligent civilizations, we have to accept the cultural concepts of other intelligent civilizations. Even if our culture is dominant, it will change under the influence of other intelligent civilizations. For us, this is an unacceptable result, and it can even be said that it is tantamount to giving up everything. At least under the circumstances, we didn't want that to happen, and we wanted to find a way to achieve great convergence that would keep the tradition. ”

"Obviously, it's impossible."

Carter smiled reluctantly and didn't say anything more.

To put it bluntly, for the intelligent civilization that has entered the stage of self-evolution, its essence is the cultural concept, and the great integration of the intelligent civilization is actually to combine the cultural concepts of different intelligent civilizations to form a new cultural concept that can be accepted by all, at least the majority of intelligent individuals. That is to say, in the process of great integration, no cultural concept of wisdom and civilization can be preserved in stone. ”

"You're right, that's the key to the Great Convergence, but we don't want to admit it."

"This ......"

"As a result, we missed the perfect time. By the time we realize that the Tawakh people cannot remain unchanged in the great fusion, and must accept and identify with the cultural concepts of other intelligent civilizations, there is no turning back, and there is no second chance. ”

"This ......"

"The outbreak of the family war has completely shattered our idea of realizing the great integration of wisdom and civilization with the Tawah people as the core."

Ali was slightly stunned, and understood what Carter meant.

"The thing is, you didn't give up." Chu Tianjiang said.

"Yes, we didn't give up, but for a long time, we didn't know how to develop the road, and we didn't know which direction the road should go. Of course, we have been exploring, trying to find a way out, and exploring the future at any cost. ”

"This ......"

"It was during this process that four of us left."

"Leave?"

"Completely dead, to be exact."

Chu Tianjiang was slightly stunned and said, "Are they all dead?" ”

Carter sighed and said, "Of my four companions, three were discovered by Becca and then killed by Becca when they were out on an inquiry. The other went to the central black hole and never returned. I was the only one who survived. ”

"This ......"

"I've been hiding here to hide from Becca."

"The problem is, you're starting to come to me......"

Carter smiled and said, "Before that, I saved you from Becca's hands. Becca already knew about my existence, and although he didn't know where I was hiding for the time being, with his ability, it wouldn't be long before he could discover this star system. ”

"This ......"

"Obviously, even if I continue to hide here, I may not be able to continue to exist."

"But ......"

"Actually, when I came to save you, my end was already doomed. Of course, I didn't save you, but I wanted to save the Tawakh through you. I've watched you guys for a long time, especially you. Carter pointed at Chu Tianjiang and said, "If there is really a certain being that can save the Tawakh people, it is only you, otherwise I would not have risked saving you." ”

"Carter ......"

"Of course, that's my only request. Either way, I hope you will accept the Tawakh and help me save the Tawah. ”

Chu Tianjiang was slightly stunned before he nodded and said, "I promise you, no matter what, I will do my best to save the Tawakh people." ”

"With your words, I am content."

At this time, Arley also understood Carter's thoughts. "Come with us, since we can hide from Becca, with your ability, we can definitely do it."

"Don't forget, I'm a Tawakh created by Bekaa, and you're not."

"This ......"

"Besides, I've been running away for billions of years and don't want to continue running away." Carter smiled and said, "You all dare to challenge Becca, and I have the courage to do that too." ”

"Carter, there's no need for this ......"

"I've already made a decision on this matter, so no matter how much you try to persuade you, it's useless. Of course, I also hope that you will respect my individual wishes. ”

Chu Tianjiang gritted his teeth, not knowing what to say.

"Of course, you don't have to worry about anything. Before challenging Beka, I will erase all information related to you and the Alliance of Intelligent Civilizations, and will not let Becca get any benefit from me. Carter paused for a moment before he said, "It's just that there's a lot to explain to you before that." Actually, that's the main reason why I brought you here to tell you about these things. ”
