Takano's appearance was far from being "handsome" in the first place.

At this moment, he gritted his teeth, and there was an indescribable distortion.

"Do you still think I'm worrying about nothing, it's because you don't know the latest developments in rune machinery and automation technology."

He stared at Meng Chao deeply with one eye, and continued, "Take the latest mining machine of our biggest competitor 'Tiangong Machinery' as an example, it is a machine equipped with drilling, excavation, crushing, gathering, and fighting...... Dozens of functions into one, but also can carry hundreds of small unmanned excavators of the behemoth.

"Thanks to rune machinery and automation technology, this kind of mining machine, which only needs to be operated by a mechanic at the pinnacle of the realm, can exert the efficiency of hundreds of skilled miners.

"Of course, due to the radiation of the hedron veins and the immaturity of automation technology, such rune machines still cannot 100% replace the position of human miners.

"But if the 'Tiangong Machinery' gets the order for the No. 20 underground rail transit line, and then gets more orders in the development of the northern line, they will have more profits to invest in research and development, and one day, they will develop a 'perfect machine' with a work efficiency of more than thousands of miners, but only one extraordinary person to control."

"When the time comes, what will the thousands of miners who have been replaced do?"

Meng Chao opened his mouth, Gao Ye's topic was too big, he fell into deep thought, and he couldn't answer for a while.

"That's what I said, times have changed."

Gao Ye said coldly, "The superior of the old era, even if he owned a mine, he needed thousands of workers to work, and he also needed a mine protection team, engineers, accountants, and experts in various fields to supplement his lack of brain power, and these people, even if they were loyal to him on the surface, deep down, they must have their own ideas and interests.

"Of course, it is possible for him to enslave and oppress these miners, and even commit heinous crimes, but on the other hand, he cannot do without the miners and his mine guards, engineers and accountants, from whom his strength comes and when the rebels leave, he is nothing.

Therefore, when the miners' outpouring of anger converges into a storm, he trembles and has to pay an additional price to suppress or appease the miners, and finally, reach a temporary equilibrium.

"But in the new era we are ushering, because of psionic infiltration and genetic stimulation, in just half a century, 1% of the time-travelers have accelerated their evolution and have evolved into a ...... A completely new species that looks exactly like an earthling, but is actually completely different.

"From then on, there was no need for engineers, accountants, guards, and miners.

"He is a very good engineer and accountant himself.

"He himself, who can move mountains and seas, is an army alone.

With the help of the highly developed Internet of Everything, automation and rune machinery technology, he can manipulate thousands of mining robots to replace the traditional miners.

"Understand, in such a new era, the superior does not need to enslave ordinary people at all, because ordinary people have no value in being enslaved at all.

"If the superior is ruthless, he may ignore ordinary people and let them fend for themselves.

"If the superior still cares about the friendship of the same people on the earth in the past, and is more merciful and righteous, he may pay a little price to raise ordinary people.

"In fact, that's the case with Dragon City today.

"The vast majority of transcendents are cultivating and fighting frantically, constantly enriching and improving themselves, climbing to the pinnacle of wisdom, physical strength, wealth, and technology.

"More and more ordinary people, but they don't have the opportunity to show their talents, and they don't have the ability to keep up with the footsteps of the transcendental, instead of curling up at home all day long, relying on the synthetic food distributed by the survival committee and made from earthworm meat to survive; It's the simple and boring jobs that can be replaced by rune machines at any time - mining, opening up underground space, repairing cities destroyed by monsters.

"But as the wisdom and strength of the transcendents continue to increase, and the rune machinery and automation technology mature, such days will eventually come to an end.

"When more and more transcendent beings have cultivated to the 'Heavenly Realm' and 'Divine Realm', and Dragon City's network, super brain, and rune machinery technology have also developed enough to project their powerful brain waves to manipulate thousands of drones or thinking machines at the same time, what is the meaning of ordinary people's existence in this civilization?"

"This ......"

Meng Chao finally thought of something, "At least, ordinary people can consume it, if there are no ordinary people, who should the transcendents sell to the things they produce by relying on fully automated rune machinery?" ”

"Nobody sells it."

Takano said, "The upper echelons of the old era chased profits and had the original impulse to constantly expand the market, but for the upper echelons of the new era, there may be one thing that is more attractive than profits, and that is cultivation."

"The propaganda slogan of the Survival Committee is that ordinary people and transcendents are the relationship between fish and water, and no one can do without each other, and that transcendents without the support of ordinary people are water without source and wood without roots - for the middle and low-level transcendentals, this may be the case.

"But for the powerhouses of the God Realm, or even the strongest people beyond the God Realm, is this really the case?

"Let's do an interesting thought experiment, suppose there is a supreme powerhouse beyond the god realm, his brain waves are strong enough to cover the entire planet, and this planet is full of drones and automatic rune machines under his control, what value and significance does ordinary people have to him?"

Meng Chao frowned, stared at Gao Ye and said, "Director Gao, I am starting to feel that you are a little extreme now. ”

"Maybe I'm extreme, or maybe you don't dare to face such a cruel future."

"But whether you want to face it or not, the pace of evolution never stops, and the pace is getting faster and faster.

"You are also an extraordinary being, and you should have experienced the incomparable pleasure of spiritual energy flowing through your nerves and blood vessels—this pleasure is far more exciting than the multiplication of wealth and the expansion of capital, which is enough to drive many transcendent beings to continue to cultivate and climb one peak after another.

"In the future, there will definitely be more and more Heavenly Realm powerhouses, God Realm powerhouses, and even the strongest people beyond the God Realm, and the gap between them and ordinary people will definitely get bigger and bigger.

"Similarly, as long as rune machinery and automation technology continue to evolve as it is now, these cold machines will become smarter, more flexible, and more powerful, and one day, replace 99% of ordinary people.

"We can't stop the cultivation of transcendent beings, and even ourselves, we have to keep cultivating.

"But we can stop the development of rune machinery and automation technology - exposing the evil conspiracy of the 'Heavenly Machine', preventing them and more rune machinery companies, getting more orders, and making biochemical modulation technology the future of Dragon City, this is the only way.

"Fortunately, when the 'Spirit Creation Creatures' were about to suffer injustice, Meng Chao, you stepped forward and helped us find the key evidence, what you did not only save the 'Spirit Creation Creatures', but also changed the future of the entire civilization."

Gao Ye said quite solemnly.

"I didn't think about it that much, I just wanted to find out the truth."

Meng Chao thought for a moment and said, "Moreover, Director Gao, isn't the biochemical beast such as the giant sandworm created with biochemical modulation technology still a flesh and blood machine with a high degree of automation?"

"According to you, rune machinery has the potential to make ordinary people lose their place in civilization, but flesh machinery is not the same?

"If there is a mine that is completely mined by biochemical beasts, won't the original miners still lose their jobs?"

Gao Ye was stunned for a long time.

He smiled wryly.

"That's right, Meng Chao, you are very smart, in just a few minutes, you have broken the key to my many years of hard thinking.

"Perhaps, it's all the same, rune machinery technology and biochemical modulation technology are the same, we live in an era of rapid evolution, and the so-called 'evolution' is to eliminate 99% of the individuals in order to send the lucky 1% to a higher throne.

"Okay, it's very interesting to chat with you, I hope to have the opportunity to communicate more, but now I'm going to send the test report to the relevant departments."

Takano put on a posture of sending off guests.

Meng Chao's heart moved, and he said, "You want to hand over the test report to the authorities?" ”

"Of course, this key evidence is enough to prove the conspiracy of 'Tiangong Machinery', and if you send it out one second earlier, you can catch the real culprit one second earlier."

Gao Ye said calmly, "Moreover, if such a big thing happens, the 'Spirit Creation Creatures' have already been monitored by the above, but they are loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and they have not sent people to guard here with guns and live ammunition on the surface."

"I guess the people above should already know about it, after all, such a large super giant sandworm dug up, many people have seen it.

"I can't think of any need to hide it, and the sooner I ended this matter, I could have started a new research one day earlier without being disturbed."

"...... like this"

Meng Chao pondered for a moment and said, "Director Gao, is the person you said 'above' a police officer named 'Shen Yupeng'?" ”

Gao Ye was slightly stunned: "You know?" However, he didn't say what kind of police officer he was, only that he was from the Transcendent Tower. ”

"Understood."

Meng Chao nodded, "One last question, Director Gao, this is purely my curiosity, you can just say it casually - in your heart, is there any object of suspicion about the laboratory that concocts the variant rabies virus?" ”

"This ......"

Gao Ye shook his head slowly, "What do I say about this, the rabies virus is not a very difficult thing to modulate, many biochemical laboratories have technical capabilities in this area, such as the laboratories of many departments of our Agricultural University, as well as the laboratories of the monster gladiatorial arena, etc., etc., I can't say it." ”
