The Somudo Alliance, which is a planet with ninety-eight administrative planets and four hundred and twenty ore planets. An interstellar force of six thousand seven hundred stars.

This is the state of most mechanical technological civilizations that have gone into space.

An administrative planet is a planet with oceans and an atmosphere that supports carbon-based life. There are hundreds of millions to tens of billions of people on such planets. These planets are responsible for the R&D and manufacturing of high-end technology. The automation equipment for mechanical manufacturing on this planet comes from these planets.

The Mining Planet, on the other hand, is a heavy industry planet where non-ferrous metal minerals are mined and smelted, where civilizations build large biospheres. The population ranges from a million to 10 million. Civilizations will have large star ports built in space orbit, and automation equipment brought from administrative planets will be transported to heavy industry factories here. The space carriers and warships built by heavy industry factories constitute an important space cargo and armed force of the Federation.

If you master the administrative planet, you will master the economic power, and if you master the mineral planet, you will master the military power, and of course the administration and the mineral planet will complement each other.

If there is no administrative planet to provide a variety of automated high-tech equipment, medical and electronic equipment on the mining planet, the consumption of manpower in various industries is huge. (Artificial intelligence is to reduce the manpower consumed by tedious work procedures) and can save human labor, which means that the labor force between the dominant interstellar planets, and the administrative planet, if there is no warship made by heavy industry, will be easily blocked by pirate ships and looted.

In addition to the mineral planets and administrative planets, there are many small factories within the territory of Somudor, and these small factories and small new bases are either on asteroids or dwarf planets. Most of the 6,000 stars of the Somudo civilization are barren planets with only small bases.

The North Lotus is a subordinate civilization of the Somudo civilization, and the reason why the Somudo civilization tolerates the existence of this carbon-based life planet is very simple. That is, the ecosystems on this planet are too different from those of the planets of Somudo. Even the atmosphere is slightly different.

And if two very different ecosystems collide, the viruses on both sides will cause major disasters for both sides. The early Somudo civilization brutally carried out expansion, and there were only a few planets at the earliest, and the vigorous development covered up the pain caused by the ecological virus during the expansion. However, as more and more planets were added later, each time a new planet was added, it was affected by a virus storm, and the cultural habits of these planets were too backward, and there would be various problems in the development of Somudo. These latecomer planets have basically not created economic benefits, the most advanced electronic manufacturing, high-tech physics, are concentrated in the old planets of Somudo, and have not changed, and those late-added planets have all kinds of problems. This is similar to how a nomadic tribe takes advantage of a certain period of military strength to move into agricultural areas, but when it comes to becoming a real state, there are a series of problems to overcome.

So two thousand years ago, there was a unanimous agreement within the Somudo civilization to stop expanding. In communication with various backward civilizations, the strategy of trade control and personnel acquisition was adopted.

The elite landing soldiers of the Somudo civilization in the starry sky are all from the citizens of the lower civilizations, (the cannon fodder is the Ke# Long people who have a lifespan of only twenty years, and the master of the star fleet is mostly the Somudos from those core planets.) ）

The legation of the Somudo civilization stationed in Beiluo is actually contracted by a company of the Somudo civilization. This company bought a license token from the government and came to make money in North Lo Zhou. This nature is equivalent to companies from developed countries going to Africa to cooperate with local tribes. Of course, the developed countries on the planet do not charter embassies to companies.

Of course, this shows the careless attitude of the Somudo civilization towards the Beiluo civilization. Most of the higher civilizations in the universe have this attitude towards the lower civilizations.

Rough rhenium, crude uranium, and all kinds of crude rare earths, are all this small company to be shipped back, the Sumuduo civilization within the corresponding free trade slogan, in terms of how to communicate with the small civilization, the Sumuduo civilization adopted the way of retreating from the country and advancing the people, so that the civilization has obtained more resources. At the same time, it also greatly developed the labor force of these backward civilizations. (The company acts as a labor intermediary)

Every year, two to three thousand outstanding young people from the planet Beiluo come to the space station on the spacecraft of the legation, shave their hair like livestock, and use an anoproscope to go deep into the intestines to check whether there are parasites and viruses in their bodies. Then he was sent a spacesuit, arranged in a hibernation warehouse, and sent to the most desperate manpower shortage of marines in Beiluo, the mining site.

Different people have different prices, and those who have stacked up to the 20th power, and those who have awakened the first-level spiritual energy, the price is higher than that of ordinary people. Those who have awakened the second-level psionic energy will fly in the first class. As for those who are psychic of the second level or higher, the legation must report it to the government and cannot deal with it privately. Of course, this rule has never been observed by the company that contracts the legation.

These companies will have private contact with these high-level psionics, and hire them privately with extremely high salaries, in the era where the Somudo civilization is located, it has just entered the Age of Interstellar Exploration, and there are interstellar pirates in this era. There are various gangs entrenched on various asteroids and dwarf planets. Psionics are very popular. The company can cut off the beard and will never leave a bite for the government.

Of course, the company can violate the government, and of course, the junior employees under the company can also violate the company's rules. For example, accepting bribes from local kings. Concealing the situation of a psychic being. Turn a blind eye to the actions of the local king!

Of course, the company goes against the state and is found to be ruined. And individuals who harm the interests of the company and are caught by the company, especially in this fringe of civilization, the consequences are very serious. It's like the 21st century, changing jobs in the metropolis at will, but in the mountains and mountains of small coal mines, if you are unhappy for the coal boss, then ......

In the space base of the North Luo Planet, the head of the Luo Mountain Country of the North Luo Planet, Sailer, was tied up, stripped naked, and hung in a glass warehouse for "sunbathing" Even on the equator, if you don't wear sunscreen on your body, your skin will be killed and the bubbles will peel. And now, outside the atmosphere, the ultraviolet rays of the sun are showing a lot of red spots on Thaler's body.

Dealing with Thaler is the company's general manager in Beiluo, Xingcong. The person in charge is now looking at the three-dimensional light curtain in front of him

The information on the stereoscopic light curtain is that the prosthetic technique used in the area below. The data shows the growth process of nerves, muscles, bones, and bones according to the duration of a course of treatment.

This is extremely high medical technology, and this set of medical technology has not yet been popularized on the planet Somudo, and the universal virtue on the planet Somudo is the technology of mechanical prosthetics.

Xing Cong looked at these medical technologies, and then fast-forwarded, focusing on Lu Yuan's means of cooperating with medical technology and using psionic energy to assist materials.

"Sixth-level medical spiritual energy" Xing Cong wrote on the electronic light screen, on the box of Lu Yuan's file, a new information file, before that, Lu Yuan's information file was written on the second-level spiritual energy.

Xingcong looked up at Saylor, who was already half-dead in the space glass room, and snorted coldly, "Put it down." ”

The manipulator dragged the dead pig-like Thaler down, and Thaler fell to his knees, kowtowing incessantly. In this place where the law is not controlled, the rules of the company are the law, and it is very common to deal with one or two disobedient people.

Xingcong lifted Sailer's chin with his foot, and said in a sighing tone: "You, a very shrewd person, why are you confused in this regard? Thaler said, "Manager, I was wrong, and I'm willing to take the credit." ”

Xingcong kicked Celer in the face, and Celer lost several teeth. However, Thaler didn't dare to cry out for pain, and knelt honestly, Thaler knew that if Xingcong always maintained an understatement attitude, then the punishment would be a death sentence, and now he was kicked hard, indicating that he could still survive. So he didn't dare to scream in pain, and crawled to Xingcong's feet, hoping that Xingcong would continue to kick.

Xingcong was cold: "You have great ability, and you are brave enough, I appreciate you." Thaler kept kowtowing.

Xingcong said, "Go and run errands." Send for him to be brought back. ”

Fifteen days later, the northern barracks

Lu Yuan, who was nested in his room, was now continuing to stack the spirit child stack. And it's stacked to the 29th power. This level of psionic energy corresponds to psionic energy, and the space-time mercenaries in the galaxy have now been exposed to the highest level of psionic energy.

The psionic energy was put aside by Lu Yuan, and now Lu Yuan was shocked by the future technology and theoretical methods that the Spirit Child System had told. According to the corresponding technology described by the spirit child system, carbon-based life will gradually change its life state. However, there is still a higher level of technology on it, but technology is exclusive to wisdom and consciousness.

From elementary technology to advanced technology, there is such a characteristic, from arm control, to finger control, to voice control, and mind control. And the quality of the controller is becoming more and more demanding.

For example, during the Industrial Revolution, it was possible to understand the steam dashboard. If you can read and write, and have the strength to be a worker.

In the electronic age, fingers are needed, and operators need to be educated.

In the post-nuclear era, the brain mind controls the machine, which requires the human mind to make complex connections, with clear logic, and often requires 30 years of education (doctoral degree), and technology has reached this level, which can no longer ensure that everyone can keep up. The difficulty of using compulsory education to ensure that the majority of people become talented has increased exponentially.

In the higher-level interstellar era, the yield rate of the new generation will be lower and lower.

In Somudo, among those administrative planets, on the highest scientific and technological planets, the new generation of civilization, from the beginning of education, and finally into the first-line industry, can have a one-thousandth success rate, which is an excellent session.

And when science and technology have developed to the level of the Silan civilization where Bai Lu is located, and continue to develop upward, the physical form of the most intelligent life is no longer limited to the traditional life form, and the most advanced productive forces are operated in this advanced physical state. And to be able to grow to this point, it is no longer how much each session can produce, but how many years can be produced.

In the Silan civilization, the scientific and technological foundation that these remnants now have is still the first-class in this universe, but these operating systems left over from advanced wisdom. It is not at all prepared for the shallow life of the human state. Just like the way humans use text communication, it is not intended for ants, ants can only communicate with odor pheromones, and humans have long since used pheromones (axillary odor) to communicate.

Humans are the highest level of carbon-based life, but not this and the highest level of life in the universe.
