After listening to Moss's account, there was a brief silence.

There is no doubt that [internal drive assimilation] is an opportunity for human beings to evolve their race.

Choosing this one means that everyone on the planet will get a free chance to transform their prosthetics, and the reproduction of the race and the degree of prosthetic will continue to deepen.

As for the benefits of prosthetics, it is needless to say, more efficient labor, stronger combat effectiveness, and more tenacious vitality.

Those who have undergone prosthetic surgery on the wandering earth will be able to appreciate the benefits of this mechanical organ.

However, the consequences of this should not be overlooked, such as the possibility of a human rebellion due to discontent, and the possibility of losing the opportunity to choose another evolutionary path.

For example, Qiao Lu knows that in addition to the synthetic evolutionary route oriented by mechanical tendencies, there is also the route of controlling genes oriented by mutation tendencies, and the harmony tendency-oriented route of the unity of nature and man.

If all the population of the earth were to be turned into semi-synthetic humans at this time, would it be the same as losing the opportunity to choose other evolutionary routes?

This is something that has to be considered.

Thankfully, no one was in a hurry to make a decision, and everyone else asked to hear what the remaining two agreements were before deciding which one to choose.

"Protocol two, the sky screen. Moss can transform a planetary engine into a shielding field generator, creating a planetary shielding field on the Earth's surface, making it impossible for other civilizations to easily detect our presence. However, the tail flame of the planetary engine will penetrate the force field and cause the shielding to fail, so the planetary engine must be in a flameout state when the planetary shielding field is activated. ”

It turned out to be a planetary shielding force field formed by using the deformation ability of the planetary engine, which was quite convenient.

It's a shame that it can't start at the same time as the planetary engine, but it still doesn't prevent it from being a very useful planetary ability.

"Agreement three, the Ideal City Plan. Using Tinder energy to transform the earth's cities does not give them vitality, but makes them gain the characteristics of automatic expansion and self-repair, which will eventually make the city cover the entire earth, obtain extremely high population capacity, and efficient scientific research efficiency. Correspondingly, the continuous self-growth of cities can make it difficult to extract natural resources, preferably through foreign colonies or extraterrestrial trade. ”

A thriving urban planet does have the demeanor of an interstellar civilization empire's capital, and building such a planet into a political center, economic center, and scientific research center, and then supplying resources to the capital through other agricultural planets, mining planets, and energy planets is simply the standard mode of operation of an interstellar civilization.

However, at present, the Wandering Earth does not have such conditions, let alone overseas colonies, and there is not even an alien civilization that can conduct stable trade.

Therefore, the Ideal City project can only be put on hold for the time being, to see if there is a good opportunity to use it on another planet in the future.

After Moss explained the content of the three agreements, the choice to be made was to choose between [Internal Drive Assimilation] and [Hidden Sky Screen].

The biggest question is whether [internal drive assimilation] can be chosen.

Russian representative Vasily was the first to speak: "I think this is a good thing, although there may be some discontent, but human civilization as a whole will move forward." At this special moment, we really should not miss any opportunity to strengthen ourselves. Because no one knows what kind of crisis the earth will encounter next time. ”

This is also the fundamental reason for Qiao Lu's hesitation, in normal times, in fact, human beings do not have to take such extreme means to complete the evolution of the race, but now they are indeed in a dangerous journey, whether they should give up such an opportunity for the evolution of the race, can not be decided by emotion.

But Vasily's statement did not get a response from others, after all, it is still not a convincing enough reason.

So the representative of the United States, Derek, proposed: "This is a decision that will determine the future of all mankind, and I don't think it should be decided by a few people." So, let's find a way to organize a referendum and count the votes of the inhabitants of each dungeon to decide whether or not to enforce the agreement. ”

In case of indecision, the referendum should be held first, which can be regarded as a fine tradition in the United States. Moreover, it seems to be the most democratic way to do it.

At least the person who made this decision can have peace of mind, after all, it is all human beings who make the choice, and no matter whether it is right or wrong, the consequences are not borne by a few.

The British delegate George and the French delegate Bewen also thought the idea was good, and was about to raise their hands in agreement, when Qiao Lu suddenly stood up, slapped the table heavily and said:

"I'm against it!"

The hands of the two of them, who had just raised halfway, suddenly stopped in mid-air, because the permanent council representatives all have a veto, and as long as one person clearly expresses his opposition, the plan will not be passed until he changes his mind.

Derek couldn't help frowning, he thought that Qiao Lu would attend the meeting for the first time as a permanent representative of the council, and he would definitely not make any big moves.

Unexpectedly, the first thing he did when he came up was to exercise a veto on his proposal, which was very embarrassing.

Derek had no choice but to ask Jolu, "Is there anything wrong with what I did?" The people should have the right to vote on whether or not to accept the agreement. ”

"The people should also have the right to choose whether or not to accept the prosthetic transformation!" Qiao Luyi said righteously.

"A referendum doesn't mean that the right decision will be made, so how can you blindly believe in such a thing? Let me give you the simplest example, if the final vote is 7-3 to pass the resolution, but the remaining 30% of the people decide to resist by force, can we afford the consequences? ”

If such a situation occurs, it is not a question of whether it can afford it, but whether the plan can be continued.

Qiao Lu further said: "If the final vote results in a more extreme 51% to 49%, will such an outcome really not lead to the Great Schism of mankind? How much suffering have we gone through to finally come together, and now to be ruined by a rash referendum? ”

The consequences are obvious, and the remaining 49% will definitely not admit defeat, and it is not surprising what kind of strategy they will adopt.

Derek still insisted: "But these are just predictions, and the vote will not necessarily turn out this way." ”

"But as the United Earth Government, we should have foreseen this outcome and done everything we could to prevent it from happening."

Qiao Lu said step by step, not at all like the representative of the permanent council who had just been inaugurated.

The hands of the British and French representatives have been completely lowered, and it is clear that they have foreseen that this referendum will not happen.

As Qiao Lu said, the consequences of this referendum may not be something that human beings can afford.

Even if there is only a 1% chance that this will happen, the fate of all mankind should not be joked.

This is not the way a coalition government should make decisions.
