375 Sailors and Rain-praying men
"Actually......"
Seeing that Longza was stumbling, Lian Jia was full of worries that day, and urged impatiently: "Don't waste time, what are you going to say?" Aren't you afraid of exposure? Keep an eye out for any messages from Charl Vinreson."
"What should I do if he sends it? I don't know if he's not......"
"You're not as good as these inferior creatures! If he really finds out, why would he send you a message to startle the snake? Since he came to ask, he showed that he had no doubts, and the more natural you answered, the better......"
"Yes...... But a few of our liberator scientists have really found something, and if he asks, will I report it or not? That's what I want to say......"
That day, Lian Jia was shocked: "What? You...... Can you get into the core? That giant blue water balloon...... Opened? "
"Not really...... However, the computer conducts a lot of data analysis from the fluidity of the appearance, and because it has not improved for a long time, and it is intermittent, we all look at it separately and never look at it together. But there is a student from the Tokyo silkworm cocoon who Yan Jiu has re-admitted, what is it called...... Dai Hongze's, he proposed that it should be synthesized every few days, from small to large parcel analysis...... This little bastard, who is doing his administrative work in Tokyo, is pointing fingers at the North Pole, thousands of kilometers away......"
"Wait," said Lianga, who was much more delicate and alert than his junior brother, "you're a fool." He's so much lower than you, even if he's young and vigorous and wants to get ahead of him by grandstanding, he shouldn't risk offending you, right? Charles Vinrecent's one-eyed dragon is probably suspicious of you, but he wants you to change your analysis strategy and is afraid that it will make you suspicious, so he will talk to this kid......"
"What? Are you saying that the man behind him is blind? That ......"
"That's it, don't panic. After all, you still control the research institute in the Arctic, and more than half of these 100,000 troops are yours - or to be precise, you are a descendant of Du Tianjie, and you are more loyal to Du Tianjie than to the blind. If a blind man acts rashly, what will happen to you once you declare the full occupation of the Institute and the independence of the Arctic Circle? When the power stops, he's finished......"
Longza had a plan and was overjoyed: "Then why don't I just stop the power supply now?" At that time, the Tokyo cocoon will also be finished, and at that time, the signal on the long-range supply Olympus Cloud will be cut off......"
"He is secretly competing with you like this, and he is clearly appeased, indicating that he doesn't want to tear his face with you. If you do this, it is no different from publicly declaring a rebellion, and it will be tantamount to giving Charles Vinrecent the pretext to kill you. Don't forget, the Arctic Research Institute base can only be regarded as the second most powerful firepower configuration in the world, the first is still Heracles, this is the base camp of Steel Valley, Steel Valley has removed most of the weapons and equipment on the Ice Amber and transported it to Heracles, what if it turns around and hits you? "
Longza was silent.
"Alright, you just need to report the situation, and I'll think for you. What did you find? "
"This ...... The surface flow material of this giant blue water ball is actually a constantly updated data, which lasted until about three or four thousand years ago before stagnating, indicating that although it cannot be contacted by the mothership, some information fragments obtained by the mothership can still be received by inertia, but this inertia is too great, lasting for more than 400,000 years. And now it is still flowing, but it is still the inertia after stagnation, that is, the inertia of inertia. "
That day, Lianga's eyes lit up: "What kind of important information is there?" If you can't analyze it, just tell me the fragment, don't send it, just tell me, lest the data be intercepted by Char's supercomputer. "
"It's really a fragment, it's too trivial...... However, it seems to be ......" Longza considered the wording, "The sailor civilization is a race dominated by aquatic feeding animals, supplemented by a few other aquatic races, with a history of less than 20 million years, and the real primitive space civilization only began to appear more than five million years ago, just like the current steel valley, but unfortunately, they are equivalent to the marginal civilization in the universe, just like the barbarians on the African or Pacific islands on the earth, and have never entered the orthodox civilized world......"
"We already knew this when we got on their ship 400,000 years ago, right? We also know that they have a hostile people, different planets in the same star system as them. "
"Yes, that race calls itself the 'Rain-Prayers', and their planet is a desert with little water, and they live next to lakes and lakes, forming nations of all sizes and eventually unifying. We haven't seen their biological forms, but it's probably mostly reptilian sapient beings like lizards, geckos, chameleons, etc. However, our important finding is that the Sailor civilization mentions a civilization that surpasses them, which they call 'The Collector'. "
"A collector is a rain-praying person?"
"It's not. They were represented by different flowing characters, and the sailors tended to be very dismissive when referring to the rain prarayers, and the two races regarded each other as barbarians, without affection or respect, but always used words of reverence for collectors. "
"It seems that collectors are not only higher than their civilization, but also have a deep influence, even a decisive role, on their scientific and technological progress and cultural folklore."
"Yes." Lonza paused and said, "We don't know much about the shape of the collector's creatures. But they are called collectors because this civilization, which was earlier and more developed than sailors and rain prarayers, visited their planet in the wild times of the first two. At that time, the scientific and technological level of collectors was probably only equivalent to the current level of Steel Valley, although the level of science and technology was not necessarily completely proportional to the overall morality, not to mention that it was often folk customs that determined morality, but collectors were really like the Western invaders of the Age of Discovery on the earth, hunting sailors and praying for rain everywhere, just to peel off their skins, because their skins were very beautiful and strong, and they were expensive in the collector's star field, so not only were there more and more folk hunters, but even the government was involved. Not only that, but the rain praying is not only good leather, but also a fierce carnivorous intelligent life, and the noble group of collectors is proud to hunt the head of the rain praying person, so the rain praying person is more miserable than the sailor, once hunted, in addition to skinning, even the head can not be saved. The sailors also looked down on the rain-praying and called them 'stingers'.
"After about a million years, the technology of the collector has reached unprecedented heights, so that its military power and energy extraction technology cover hundreds of star systems, of course, this is far worse than our generals, but it is also a great civilization, the main reason is that they have gone in the wrong direction, they have been studying mechanical physics, and never consider that awakening is the treasure of each race, so they can only reach the Ding page peak in their direction, just as the highest achievement in the age of cold weapons on earth is Genghis Khan's Mongol army, But after reaching the peak, you can only face the downhill road...... At this time, the overall moral benchmark of collector civilization has been improved a lot, and synthetic leather can already be artificially manufactured, and the domestic call for a stop hunting sailors and rain prayers is becoming more and more enthusiastic, and even extreme environmentalists have emerged, who want to commit mass suicide to create a political scandal and force collectors to either amend the animal protection law or step down.
In this way, collectors have no choice but to establish natural life reserves, and although sailors and rain prayers are intelligent beings or even super wise people compared to humans, for collectors, they are nothing more than orangutans and dolphins in nature reserves, just animals with higher intelligence. And because genuine leather is still more valuable than synthetic leather, poaching continues to occur in large numbers, and finally ends with really severe legal sanctions. Until one day, the sailors and the rain praying found that they were low-level creatures enclosed in the interstellar nature reserve, and could hardly accept this fact, so they began a large-scale ** and rebellion, but due to the big difference in strength, they were basically equal to the monkeys of a monkey mountain**, which could not attract the attention of the collector authorities at all, and when the sailors and rain-praying individuals scratched and killed tourists too much, the authorities decided to secretly arrest the leading troublemakers, and began to conduct secret research on the individual.
"The results of the study are astonishing, and the collectors have found that sailors and rain prayers have extremely high IQs, and will develop into space civilizations that will break out of their home planets in the future, and the collectors are just earlier than them, not the difference between humans and animals, but only the difference in time. Many scientists can't accept this, and they jointly hope that the authorities will completely destroy the world of sailors and rain praying people, and strangle their civilization in infancy, otherwise it won't take another million years, once there is a technical catch-up, it will be difficult to control, maybe they will compete with them for resources in the star field controlled by collectors, that is a real battle for survival and life, even if it wins, it will pay a huge price. However, at this time, the sailors had already been tamed into a large number of chong animals similar to dogs, cats, cows and horses in human society because of their relatively docile temperament, and a large number of chong animal keepers were firmly opposed to this kind of massacre caused by scientific inference, so the authorities have been wavering.
"But the sailor civilization is extremely docile, while eating a large number of collectors' long-outdated products, which is caricatured by many collectors' researchers as 'civilization on the garbage heap', but slowly, they also have to pay attention to sailor civilization, not that science and technology are developing fast, but that they are docile and cultivated, and can fully integrate into the collector society, and collectors seem to have tacitly accepted that they are a civilization rather than an animal group. About 2.7 million years ago, it finally recognized its status and officially declared that it was a minority in the Star Field under the rule of collectors, enjoying treatment second only to collectors. And the rain praying side also began a big explosion of wisdom, intending to catch up with the sailor civilization, they both regarded the collector as a god, but saw each other as enemies and ultimate competitors, which is clear from the cats and dogs in human society. Comparatively speaking, sailors are smarter, but less united, more clever and more loved in front of their masters; But the rain prayers are reptiles after all, and their appearance does not please the mainstream aesthetic concepts of collectors, and they are also kept by a small population. Those who pray for rain are more united, forbearing, and firm, and even ask the whole clan to modify their violent temper, try to make themselves more docile, and even simulate the eating habits of their masters.
