.β€œ What did you say? Tianxiang couldn't believe his ears: "You were the one who caused those ancient wars?" Why? "War is the best catalyst for civilization." Ignoring the surprised look on the listener's face. The old man said to himself: "In a peaceful society, scientific and technological research is often limited to a halt due to lack of motivation. The destruction of the first civilization was precisely due to the lack of sufficient impetus for development. On the other hand, the civilization created by the Australopithecus evolutionaries was precisely because of the years of war, which forced the belligerents and nations to pay attention to scientific research and the development of new weapons, because only in this way could they be invincible in future wars. Of course, in the thousands of years of various wars of extermination, it is true that many glorious civilizations have been destroyed as a result. But, in every respect, war is the best product of human evolution. In the post-human modern society, such a catalyst is even more significant. For the sake of their own interests, the major belligerents can only intensify the development of their own scientific research. This period is the period of the most abundant scientific research achievements in the post-human era. It is precisely because of this that the "Pathfinder" program was born. β€œ

For the old man's words, Tianxiang obviously did not agree. At least not entirely. "If it is catalysis, then why have there been so many devastating wars in the history of mankind? Even the nuclear war that destroyed everything 600 years ago was to be triggered? If all civilizations are destroyed in war, then what is the point of such a catalyst? "Our original intention is simply to create antagonism between nations and nations. Small-scale warfare is indeed the best way to catalyze. However, what we didn't expect was that there were too many unexpected accidents in this world. Speaking of this, the old man sighed helplessly: "I admit that the dispute between the two superpowers six hundred years ago was indeed caused by me. However, things turned out completely unexpectedly. This led to the devastating outbreak of the nuclear battlefield. ”

"Accidents? What accident? "If you're familiar with ancient history, you're bound to find out. When human civilization has developed to a certain extent, there will always be an inexplicable war that destroys it all. The old man did not answer his question directly. Instead, it led the conversation in another direction: "The fall of ancient Rome, the defeat of the British Empire, the defeat of the Qing state in foreign wars, and the outbreak of three world wars。。。。。。 Don't you think there's anything going on? ”

"Related?" Tianxiang's expression tightened: "You mean, the source of the outbreak of these wars?" "The origin of matter is not as simple as the eye sees." The old man raised his head, looked at the endless swirling starry sky behind him, and said with great emotion: "Just like war, people often think that the drive of interests between the belligerents is the most crucial reason for it. Not necessarily. There are many times. If you can see the origin of matter beyond the surface of the situation. Then, you will naturally understand the most basic laws of everything in the universe. ”

Maybe the old man said something too mysterious, or maybe he couldn't understand the hidden meaning for a while. After listening to these inducing words of inspiration, Tianxiang pondered for a long time before he said in an uncertain tone: "You mean...... Time? ”

"Not bad. It's time. The old man looked at him approvingly, and said, "Every once in a while, the most powerful civilization on earth dies for various reasons. In this regard, many scholars in the post-human era have different opinions. There are even explanations such as "if you divide for a long time, you will be divided for a long time", and "if you are warlike, you will die". But they have apparently forgotten the most important fact – that decay begins within and ends with war. Such a demise occurs every few hundred years. However, no one paid attention to the hidden laws. ”

"Do you mean。。。。。。 Are those alien invaders? Tianxiang asked with some hesitation. That's them. The old man nodded with a heavy heart: "I don't know what the intentions of these alien creatures are, they probably want to destroy all the civilizations on the earth!" This is the frenzied provocation of wars between various peoples. Even, when the war is already showing signs of ending, continue to push the direction of the struggle in other directions. Let the warring sides fight to the death, and never stop。。。。。。 It's like the remnants of humanity who survived the nuclear war, and who had relied on them to build a new civilization from the ruins. However, the asteroid that fell from the sky turned all this into a bad bubble. And the main culprits of this disaster are those outsiders who lurk in the shadows. "Now that you know, why don't you stop it?" "What do I do to stop it? How can I stop it? Hearing such a question, the old man laughed miserably: "Although I am the incarnation of God in the eyes of many earthlings, driven by interests, no one will take this into account at all. What's more, it takes great strength to stop war. The Atlanteans also saw me as a guide who had existed since ancient times. They have told all that I know to those who discovered me. Let them gather more power to stop all disasters once and for all. "The person who found you?" For some reason, Tianxiang suddenly thought of the information storage that led him to the Himalayas. If it weren't for that, I'm afraid I would never have known that under this huge mountain range, there is still an ancient robot who holds so many secrets: "For hundreds of millions of years, there is only one human who can see through everything and finally find my existence." Speaking of this, the old man couldn't help but show a relieved expression on his face: "Although there is only one oil, I am already very satisfied." After all, being able to do this already shows that he is able to accept all the secrets. You know, for ordinary people, these secrets are simply unimaginable. ”

"The only human 。。。。。。 You mean, the leader? Xiaotian asked cautiously. That's him. The old man smiled: "Although he is not a pure earthling, in terms of the essence of the problem, he is actually no different from an earthling. He and I talked for a long time, and we were completely on the same page on the specific nature of the events. In this way, he made a pact with me: to leave a large reservoir of information all over the earth. And the last content of it is to let the "pathfinder" who has obtained the relevant information find my existence. It is then up to me to guide these latecomers to complete the civilized reconstruction. ”

"Guidelines?" Tianxiang was a little strange as to why the old man would use such a strange word here. "Yes. Guidelines. The robot that saw through its inner thoughts smiled, "I'm just a machine that witnesses history." It is impossible to estimate everything that may happen in the future. At the same time, due to the ancient humans who created me, it is impossible for me to provide you with any weapons of mass destruction. Therefore, if you want to re-establish your own new civilization on Earth, you must have a strong capital to resist foreign invaders. Although they come to Earth at a long time, each time they bring only war and death. ”

"So, where are you going to lead us?" Xiaotian asked. The old man didn't speak, turned around and pointed at the hologram behind him. Suddenly, the slowly rotating starry sky changed to a different picture. From the brilliantly flattened halos and the planets that swirled in them, Tianxiang could easily see that this was his solar system. And the beautiful blue planet in it is the Earth. "The Earth is the cradle of life, but it is not a safe place to keep all its secrets. More than 600 years ago, leaders had already established a large base here. In particular, the computer that serves as the central control system. It's much more powerful than I am. Although the invaders were aware of the existence of the land and launched fierce attacks there, they did not achieve complete victory. So, it's the safest place to keep all your secrets. It is also the only last base capable of defending against the invaders. ”

The place the old man was pointing to was a huge planet at the edge of the solar system. And its name is also named after the legendary Grim Reaper. That's – Pluto. The computer you are talking about is "Zhilong?" "It's not very clear about the situation on that planet, though. But Tianxiang still knows more or less that it is the location of the legendary superbrain "Zhilong".

"Yes!" The old man replied affirmatively: "The leader left everything there before leaving. This even includes the "Legacy of the Gods" that he found. With these, you have the strength to fight the invaders. to reinvent history. ”

"Legacy of the gods?" Xiaotian frowned: "Why is this thing again?" So what is it exactly? "To be honest, I don't know. That thing existed before I appeared. Even in the archives of ancient humans, there is no record of this. ”

"And how did you find out about its existence?" As soon as the words came out, Tianxiang realized that he had made a big mistake. As expected, the old man's words hit what he thought.

"Of course the leader told me. Not only that, but he also showed me tangible evidence of the existence of the Celestial Heritage. "Since you've seen it, what exactly is the so-called legacy?" Hearing this, Tianxiang's expression couldn't help but be a little excited, but the old man's answer was like a plate of cold water, and he poured it on his head.

"Huh! You have to ask Zhilong about this question, and you can't get any answer from me. The robot looked at him slyly, "This is the agreement between the leader and me, and it is also a test for anyone who wants to know the answer." If you can't do it alone, it's useless to know the secret. You should understand that the relationship between strength and power is always proportional. Tianxiang finally understood. After saying so much for a long time, the robot just wants to know whether its race can have the ability to travel. After all, Pluto is so far away from Earth. Ordinary astronautics simply can't get there. But if you can do this, it means that your own race can explore more in the starry sky. It is an incomparably important key to resisting possible future wars.

Perhaps seeing the hesitation on Tianxiang's face, X-001 added a weighty sentence to one end of the scale. "If you can reach Pluto on your own, the Dragons will answer any questions you may have. Even all the inexplicable doubts in your mind. ”

"Really?" Contemplatively, Tianxiang raised his head suddenly. "I'm a robot, there's no need to lie to you." The old man smiled kindly: "What's more, there was once an agreement between me and the leader. For any "pathfinder", it is necessary to know everything and say everything. It's just that the final result must be obtained by yourself, and too much help can only be a counter-operation to help pull out the seedlings. You should be well aware of this. ”

This sentence was so obvious that Tianxiang and Xiaotian were stunned when they heard it, and in their minds, a question that had been bothering them for a long time came to mind at the same time. "Could it be that you 。。。。。。?"

"Yes, it's me."

The riddle-like questioning, though simple, confirmed what Tianxiang had been thinking for a long time. That is: the living environment of all "pathfinders" is really manipulated by someone in the dark. From the time of Tianxiang to meet the wind of war. He had been wondering about it. It's just that, in the absence of any evidence to prove it, he can only dismiss this idea as a kind of boring delusion. After all, "pathfinders" are quantitative organisms born from test tubes. It is reasonable to have a lot in common, however, after encountering Taiguang and others. His doubts were even more and more acute. Especially when he learned that the "Pathfinder" should have the initial resources, he began to affirm that there must be an invisible black hand that controlled his every move remotely in the shadows. Using the way of giving materials, he manipulates everything he owns. It's just that he never dreamed that this invisible hand was actually a robot from hundreds of millions of years. That is, the legendary omnipotent "God。。。。。

"Why are you doing this?" After being silent for a long time, Tianxiang spoke again. Although it is not explicitly stated. But from the displeasure and anger on his face, it was completely obvious that he was already trying to suppress the anger in his heart.

No one likes to be controlled by others, not even fools and idiots. "The reason is simple." The robot didn't care about the other party's attitude at all: "No matter how good the "pathfinder" is, if it is not cultivated, it will never be able to become the best leader." Yes, you do have the best genetic mix that humanity has ever seen. However, innate excellence does not equal acquired integrity. Experience, mistakes, everything that cannot be acquired from innateness, must be cultivated in practice and in difficulty. Biotechnology can create a robust body and a well-developed brain. But it will never be possible to create mentally sound leaders. It is for this reason that I took away all the initial resources of the "Pathfinder". However, this has caused a large number of "pathfinders" to die due to various accidents. But the people who can survive it are definitely better than hundreds, or even thousands, or tens of thousands of "pathfinders". It's like you, if you hadn't been in the crypt and struggling with your sister to survive, I'm afraid until now, you would still be an ordinary person who has achieved nothing. Exchanging a group of Mianyang for a lion, such a deal, if it is you, I am afraid you will make the same choice. ”

Although Tianxiang knew that the robot was right, the feeling of being manipulated by others in his heart could not be eliminated. After pondering for a long time, he spoke again: "What about Yuna?" Why did she go back to having her own initial resources? "Yuna is an exception." The old man paused, and continued, "She was already the adopted daughter of the leader of the northern tribe as soon as she was born. The special status and the superior environment made it impossible for me to take any more measures. In that case, it would be better to ignore it than to deprive her of all the equipment that belonged to her. After all, her ---- is much higher than the average person. For a young chief, such trials often have a negative effect. But as you can see, Yuna has great abilities, but she can't foresee the danger from her side. In the end, it is only possible to survive in the way it is. This is probably her best way out! At this moment, the anger in Tianxiang's heart was more or less linked. After calming down, he knew very well that if he really had such a huge amount of materials in his hands at that time, I am afraid that until now, he and his sister were still just hiding in the crypt, relying on those things to count the time to live。。。。。。

"I've said everything I need to say, and now, your target should be Pluto."
