What do ordinary people mean to sublimators?

Perhaps, it is only to ensure the size of the country, to ensure the potential of the 'future', to cultivate more geniuses and sublimators for more bases, so they are still trying to protect these 'ordinary people'.

The reason why Inaga II was able to persuade the major groups within the empire to carry out universal education was that in addition to being strong enough, I am afraid that other groups also harbored the idea that universal education could improve the quality of the people, create more sublimators, and fill their power.

The emperor eats meat, they can also drink broth, everyone is a courtier, and they can't beat the Emperor Inaga and the first knight, since that's the case, forget it, listen to them, it's not bad to drink soup.

But in the end, because of the advancement of technology, these educated ordinary people lost the way to advance - Inaga II misestimated human nature, and he thought that learning and knowing more knowledge was a reward in itself, a reward, but many people did not think so.

They need a more straightforward, intuitive 'reward'.

And among this group of people, although a group of more sublimators have emerged than in the past, the number is far less than imagined, and it has also caused social chaos in many areas.

The empire recognized the benefits of universal education, as well as the 'disadvantages', and the death of Inaga II led them to be cautious about this policy, willing to invest only in a subset of geniuses and psionics who were sure to become sublimators.

The reason why Ian has been able to get so much preferential treatment along the way is precisely because of the continuation of this policy - he was chosen by this system, so he can rise so smoothly.

That's why Ian is favored by so many nobles, and even the second prince like Mikael comes to warn him in person.

Because he is a 'high-quality investment product that can be reaped steadily, not chaotic'.

A stock that is sure to make a profit and never lose money.

That's enough to throw money at you.

As for ordinary people, it is enough to just need protection.

For the vast majority of Terra sublimation rulers, only the elite of ordinary people are needed to select these people and turn them into sublimators, while whether other mediocre ordinary people can be educated or not, whether they have hopes and dreams, is a trivial matter.

They don't care.

- This has been ...... It's not a question of class.

"It's an isolation. The barrier that can never be broken is the one created by technology that is ahead of its time! ”

When Ian knew that the Empire had mastered the 'Inscription Intelligence' technology that could produce the 'Alchemy Elixir', his heart gradually 'cooled' after a burst of 'ecstasy'.

Ecstasy is because Terra's artificial intelligence technology actually has a foundation, which means that the world's productivity will soon usher in a big explosion - if it can be put into practice, then the productivity can explode, and Terra has the ability to become a near-interstellar civilization at any time.

But cooling, because of a very simple problem.

- What about the big explosion?

A fifth-level ...... No, a fourth energy level, can destroy all of this at any time.

It doesn't even need to be destroyed, who can consume these bursts of productivity?

Free delivery? Give for free? Pro bono benefits? What are you kidding, nothing like this happened in your previous life, expecting the Alchemy Workshop in power of the Sublimator to do this work?

Even with the authority and power of Inaga II, they rebelled......

- Oh.

The boy finally understood why, why Inaga II, was betrayed by almost all of his old friends.

Because, that naïve guy, that guy who is so talented that he ignores the problem at his feet.

I really want to do that.

"I'm afraid it's really because, he wants to engage in free welfare gifts for the whole people...... Where is this running, it's like a rocket leaping to the Datong society, my hometown didn't do it in my previous life, I can only rely on interstellar development to consume resources, and enter through interstellar pioneering, which can consume unlimited productivity, and enter through the symptoms - it can't cure the root cause. ”

"If you don't have four or five fifth-level platforms, you still dare to carry out this kind of reform? Counting that era, our Chehalorvo family also made such a thing as the echo of eternal life, and it is no wonder that everyone thinks of being tossed by Inaga II for a lifetime and future generations. ”

"Not to mention the crown prince at that time. Everyone probably had a compromise mentality of 'the emperor and the first knight are too strong, we can't oppose it, even if we can succeed, the cost is too great, it's better to endure it and wait until they both die of old age', and as a result, they accidentally learned about the immortality technology, even if it was just a mirror echo...... They were also frightened, so they had to fight back. ”

"At that time, the basic plate of Inaga II, that is, those new productive forces, the Alchemy Association and other forces, was probably still liquidated and bankrupt."

Ian smiled bitterly in his heart, the more he learned about Terra's world, the more he felt that there were many problems.

Person? There is no shortage.

Technology? There is no shortage either.

Social? As long as you are strong enough, you can do whatever you want.

Here's the question, what does it mean to be strong enough?

Originally, Ian felt that the Terra people's lack of enthusiasm for universal education was due to the simple "I can't find a job even if I learn" and "the mismatch between productivity and education" - this is a good solution, as long as we gradually build an industrialized society, improve productivity and improve the consumption power of the people at the same time, we can let Terra quickly enter a modern society.

But now it seems that the two problems of 'I can't find a job even if I learn' and 'the mismatch between productivity and education' are indeed correct.

But the truth is completely reversed.

Terra is a technology in terms of productivity, and it has already pointed out 'artificial intelligence', so it is useless for ordinary people to learn it - how can ordinary people compete with artificial intelligence!

And the sublimators are also not interested in this, what they need is a sufficiently 'strong' alchemy potion, those that can only be produced by alchemists, and even high-level alchemy elixirs that need to be manipulated with the help of 'souls', which artificial intelligence cannot provide, and ordinary people cannot provide.

Therefore, the imperial side did not dare to continue the research, and also felt that universal education was meaningless.

Because, if you develop an inscription intelligence that even a soul can have...... Does that mean that, in addition to ordinary people, the current group of alchemists is not needed?

Is it really about to start rebelling against the entire sublimator class?

"The technology left over from the pre-era civilization is really not a good thing sometimes...... Hey, too powerful technology is really a disaster, which will completely destroy the possibility of the development of the times and make the whole society deformed. ”

Thinking wildly, Ian spoke slowly.

"I see."

The young man's words made Mikael, who was already about to turn into light and leave, to stop: "Your Highness, do you think that the mistake of the first emperor is that he wasted too much time on ordinary people, and these ordinary people are too grassy, a little propaganda, a little smear, a little blinding and tampering, can make them change their position and hate those who truly love them." ”

"So, ordinary people...... It's just that whoever wins, they help. They need to be won over, but what they need to do more is to make themselves stronger first and ensure that they can win, otherwise everything they do will lose their meaning. ”

"Instead of being good to ordinary people from the beginning, it is better to choose a genius, cultivate to the fifth energy level, strengthen your own strength, and then you can do more things."

"Kindness and love, which are not supported by power, will definitely be distorted and distorted into ...... Despot. ”

Mikael turned his back to Ian and listened in silence to Ian's words.

"yes." When the young man finished speaking, he said softly, unable to see his expression or hear his tone: "Isn't this land like this." Ian, why weren't you born a hundred years early, in time for your grandfather's time? ”

"If there was one more fifth-level next to my grandfather back then, history would have been rewritten."

But no.

Inaegar II is dead.

"Ian, you're really smart." Turning his head, the second prince faced Ian.

Before leaving, Mikael said for the first time: "But your way of looking at things is too inclined to the technology itself, and it is not high. ”

"Living in Nanling makes you feel the hardships of ordinary people. I can understand, I really did something like that before. But you're already a lord, and although you may not be in office so soon, you should understand at this moment. ”

"Compared with the simple happiness of a group of people, it is more important to ensure the stability of the city and province in which they live, you must understand that in addition to the empire, there are many other forces, other high-level powerhouses, we check and balance each other, fight against each other, most of the resources have been thrown into this bottomless pit, and in our lifetime, we have to continue to throw."

"All the technology, all the resources, have to be skewed in this direction – we can't change the allocation of resources, even if there are better options, but if that change causes upheaval and upheaval, then we can't do it."

"We can't compare the good, because going from bad to good will cause flaws, and we are competing with who can't survive first, and who will show flaws first."

"Ian, you can't think about peace of mind, you can't fantasize about this luxury."

"You'll have to draw resources to fight against the destruction of Warcraft and other countries—much easier than building—and you'll have to protect the stability and peace of this land, and you'll have to make a trade-off."

The second prince stretched out his hand, and his right hand pressed against Ian's shoulder, while his left hand was raised, pointing into the distance...... Ian knew that it was the direction where the Imperial Capital Upper City was located: "You are the kind of person who can stand on the highest place, Ian, you will become an important minister of the Empire, standing on the top of the mountain of the Imperial Capital." ”

Mikael said almost solemnly: "Whether it's me or someone else, who ended up becoming emperor...... Even if your father sees you now, he will cultivate you. You'll be one of them. ”

"You have to learn to think this way."

"Ian, you've got to stand on top of the mountain!"
