Chapter 170: The Age of Order and Barbarism

The emergence of the human coalition government did not cause much of a stir, and even all the people at the bottom felt that it had not changed. Because isn't the Government of Human Unity an advanced version of the United Nations? Moreover, the armies of all the countries in front of them have also been integrated into the peacekeeping forces, and now there is only one more military commission.

There is no mistake in this view, and the Government of Humanity is indeed an advanced version of the United Nations. It's just that the coalition government of mankind has completely changed from an international organization with a lot of power to a country. Although the names and institutions of each country are still retained, the administration and military power are completely subject to the orders of the coalition government.

The establishment of a coalition government of mankind is beneficial to the vast majority of mankind, and now that the industrial civilization of mankind has been hit hard, there must be a strong and powerful order to integrate all forces to rebuild human society. Everyone was frightened by this sudden catastrophe, and the ideology of mankind also achieved a certain degree of unity in this catastrophe.

This apocalyptic catastrophe destroyed the steel forest that mankind is proud of, and shattered the pride of the overlord of the human world. Humanity is aware of its own weakness, and it realizes that the situation of humanity is very dangerous, so humanity needs to become stronger.

The emergence of the same coalition government has also touched the interests of some people, the first to bear the brunt of the Western Continent, or the governors of the Western Continent. As can be seen from the newly enacted reforms and laws of various countries, this new human coalition government is a central government with a high degree of centralization.

This also means that the power of these state governments, which have a high degree of autonomy, will be greatly weakened, and the local bureaucrats are certainly unwilling to face this situation, and some local bureaucrats have proposed to fight the epidemic. However, as soon as they protested, they were arrested on the second day on various charges.

In the past, this situation would definitely trigger riots in various states, but now there is a behemoth like the human coalition government watching, who dares to riot and slap to death.

This is one of the benefits that heads of state get from coalition governments, and the top levels of countries know that the trend of human integration cannot be reversed. This is the interest of the vast majority of people, and even they themselves support the integration of humanity, and in the face of the alien civilization, the greatest enemy of all time, humanity can only have a chance of life if they are united.

Since they can't change human integration, they have to become the beneficiaries of human integration. The heads of state took advantage of the righteousness and power of the human coalition government to recover most of the rights of the states and achieve centralized power. This is also the result that the coalition government of humanity wants, and humanity now needs to integrate all its forces.

Under the guidance of the coalition government, humanity began a plan to rebuild its homeland. All kinds of industrial machines were moved to the surface, and rudimentary factories began to be built. Of course, most of these factories are light industry, and the coalition government does not intend to keep all the important industries of humanity on the surface, but underground.

As a result of this underground city performance, the Coalition Government of Humanity asked each country to expand its own nuclear bomb shelters, requiring each country to build at least one underground city that could accommodate more than 5 million people.

In the end, in order to take care of the emotions of the post-war population, the United Government of Mankind established a virtual reality experience center in every human gathering place in all countries. Citizens can play with the new currency issued by the United Government of Humanity.

The virtual reality games in it are all leisurely and self-healing games, such as virtual tourism, virtual Daxia life, virtual ancient Daxia people's life, virtual Daxia school life, ....... When the heads of state saw these games, their mouths twitched wildly, and their faces were speechless.

Although now that all human beings are integrated, everyone can be said to be their own people, but this dick still can't change his eating shit. It is necessary to conquer them not only physically, but also spiritually.

The heads of state knew what Great Xia wanted to do, but they didn't stop it, because these seemingly insignificant games were the most soothing in this world that had just experienced the apocalypse. What outsiders see is just a game, but what heads of state see is a consolidator that can maintain social stability.

At the same time, the heads of state also played a virtual reality game sent by the Eastern Xia Empire. After playing, they had to sigh at the advanced virtual reality technology of Daxia.

In particular, wearing the most complete virtual reality equipment, such as tactile suits, olfactory simulators, and free movement pods, ...... everything else is like reality except for the inability to feel the sense of taste.

This also reminded the heads of state of their own fantasies when they were young, and when they walked in front of them, both the sense of smell and the sense of touch were so clear.

Hum! Despicable Great Xia people, I think that this kind of little trick can calculate me, and even if I die, I will not play such a vulgar game as yours!

After the catastrophe, all kinds of materials in human society became extremely scarce, and virtual reality games became the main entertainment of human beings. Because virtual reality games can bring happiness to the people who survive, and at the same time, the cost of producing happiness is very cheap.

……

Goblin Slayer World, Base 0, Office.

A silver-haired girl wearing a green cartoon dinosaur costume with very delicate facial features sat very upright on the sofa. The girl's eyes were as bright as the Milky Way, quietly looking at the ball of light in the palm of her right hand.

This ball of light is actually a mass of souls, the souls of interstellar explorers.

Syllable!

The next moment, the ball of light in the hand of the supporting goddess No. 2 suddenly exploded, turning into countless points of light and dissipating into the air.

Xia Xuan, who was dealing with government affairs, opened the virtual screen in front of him, looked at the silver-haired girl and asked, "How is it?" ”

"Hmm." The Goddess of Knowledge No. 2 still cherished words like gold, and the next moment the body of the Goddess of Knowledge No. 2 slowly floated up, floated in front of Xia Xuan in a dog-crawling posture, and stretched out her right hand.

Xia Xuan also raised his right hand and held the palm as delicate as jade.

Swish!

Memories poured into Xia Xuan's mind like a tide, and pictures kept flashing in front of his eyes like a marquee. Now his state is somewhat similar to using his true self, but it is very different in that these memories do not allow him to relive his life as quickly as his true self.

The Dark Side of the Universe...... High-Dimensional Energy ...... Divine Chaos ...... Civilizational Wars...... Land of the Free...... Planetary Life ...... Stargate ......

I don't know how long it took, Xia Xuan slowly opened his eyes, and at this time, the support goddess No. 2 was still floating in front of him in a dog-like posture.

"It's really a magnificent era, and it turns out that the universe is so lively."

From these memories, Xia Xuan had a clear understanding of the current situation in the cosmic society, and the current social structure of the cosmic universe was neither the law of the dark forest, nor the order and the wild universe.

Rather, it is a universe where order and barbarism coexist.

A long time ago, the entire universe was still in the age of barbarism, and no civilization had established order, and all civilizations were exploring this vast and boundless universe in their own way. At the same time, due to the vastness of the universe, even if some civilizations discover their own existence, the distance between the two sides is hundreds of light years, which makes it extremely difficult for them to communicate.

But suddenly one day, the dark side of the universe suddenly came alive and was closely linked to the material universe. Some civilizations, after understanding the characteristics of the dark side of the universe, use the dark side of the universe for interstellar voyages.

In the beginning, due to the distorted nature of the dark side of the universe, many fleets will accidentally get lost in the dark side of the universe in the early stages of exploration. It wasn't until later, with the study of the dark side and high-dimensional energies of the universe that civilizations studied the dark side of the universe and the high-dimensional energies, a device called a beacon appeared.

Beacon: Provides a direction and position to ships sailing on the dark side of the universe.

With the help of the dark side of the universe, the originally desperately vast universe shrank a lot in an instant. The distortion of time and space on the dark side of the universe greatly shortens the time and difficulty of interstellar travel.

All civilizations have entered a state of rapid development, and the fleets of some civilizations have even encountered the fleets of another civilization on the shore of the universe, and the two sides have had friendly exchanges. Because the home planets of the two sides are too far apart and there is not much conflict of interest, this period is known as the Age of Peace.

However, with the appearance of the first stargate, everything changed, and the originally peaceful universe instantly ignited the flames of war, and countless civilizations fought for the stargate.

If the dark side of the universe is the highway that lays out the universe, the main arterial road that all civilizations must pass through, or the transit station. The ordinary dark side of the universe, space and time are distorted, and the position of the material universe is also distorted and constantly changing.

For example, if a starfleet is on an interstellar voyage in the dark side of the universe, the position of the parent star is 1 at the time of departure, but the next second this position may become 2 or 3. The coordinates of the dark side of the universe and the material universe are not relative, but distorted and constantly changing.

But where the stargate is located, the position of the dark side of the universe is fixed, and the coordinates of the material universe and the dark side of the universe are relative. This stable dark side of the universe can carry out ultra-long-distance migration voyages without being affected by the high-dimensional energy storm in the dark side of the universe.

To put it simply, as long as you control the stargate, you are equivalent to controlling the galaxy where the stargate is located. With the Stargate, the fleet of civilizations can reach any location in their galaxy in a day, and can also travel ultra-long distances through the Stargate to reach other galaxies at great speed.

Every time a stargate appears, it will set off an interstellar war that affects dozens of interstellar civilizations, and sometimes even hundreds of interstellar civilizations.

All interstellar civilizations began to wage war around the new alliance through the stargates, and the starships in the sky fired huge energy beams at each other, smashing one planet after another with star-level strategic weapons. After thousands of years of war, countless civilizations have been shattered. Some of these ruined civilizations were destroyed by other civilizations, while others were destroyed by themselves, by their own civilization figuratively.

This same brutal war also made a part of the civilization complete the metamorphosis, and this part of the metamorphosis of the higher civilization realized that if this endless war continued, even they would collapse one day. As a result, the three third-level civilizations began to minimize the conflict, and after decades of running-in, the three civilizations signed treaties with each other to establish the Star Alliance.

At the same time, the three major civilizations require all interstellar civilizations to join the Star Alliance, and prohibit civilizations from believing in chaos, even if they are born of their own civilizations.

After the establishment of the Star Alliance, the universe entered an orderly society, and all civilizations began to develop peacefully under the guidance of the Star Alliance. However, this peace is short-lived, and war alone is the eternal theme in the universe.

After hundreds of years of peace in the cosmic society, the dark side of the universe has changed again, the active range of the dark side of the universe has expanded again, and one star gate after another has appeared one after another. A large number of civilizations from distant galaxies have entered the cosmic society guided by the Star Covenant under the connection of the dark side of the universe.

These new civilizations are not weak, and there are several higher civilizations among them. With a close difference in strength, these new civilizations will certainly not obey the leadership of the Covenant.

The war broke out again, this time with a wider range of battles, and the galaxies that were originally thousands of light-years apart broke out under the connection of the dark side of the universe and the stargate. This war is not only a confrontation between military strength, but also a confrontation between cohesion, economy, logistics, and a collision between civilizational ideologies.

Carbon-based biological civilization, life mechanical civilization, AI civilization...... Humanoids, zergs, spirits, orcs......

Even super life forms appeared behind them, and they came to the cosmic society through the dark side of the universe.

The current stage of the cosmic society is the era of order and barbarism, and the order is because each civilization has established its own position after experiencing a great war. All civilizations no longer wage war as they did in the early days, but quietly digest the various resources they have gained through cosmic warfare.

Savage is because a civilization does not need any reason to wage war against a non-aligned civilization, as long as the benefits outweigh the risks, then war is bound to come. As for why there are no more organizations like the Star Alliance? Because no civilization has the qualifications and strength to do so, and at the same time, the ideologies of various civilizations themselves are in great conflict, and some even reach the point of being enemies of life and death.

The most important thing is that the active range of the dark side of the universe is still expanding, and more interstellar civilizations and super life forms will join in the future. If they are evenly matched, they will not willingly listen to other civilizations.

This is an era of order and barbarism, an era full of infinite possibilities. War is the only subject, and weakness is the original sin.

And the strange crack that appeared in the solar galaxy at this time was a stargate, a strategic place that countless civilizations dreamed of and desperately desired. This stargate is extremely precious, and its value is tens of thousands of times higher than that of the entire cloud star. However, such a precious thing is in front of human beings, and it is not a good thing for human beings.
