Chapter 119: The Earth's Civilization That Has Gone Astray
The speed at which this particular form of civilization of Transformers develops depends entirely on the source of the spark, which in turn depends entirely on the source of energy. With enough energy, the right environment (plenty of electronics), they can swell at an alarming rate.
In just five years, the entire Proxima Centauri has almost been transformed into another Cybertron.
Around this planet, there are three satellite space cities, which are constantly building various types of spaceships. Once these ships are built, they will be further transformed into Transformers, and then sent to all corners of the known universe through the stargates arranged above, bringing a steady stream of scarce resources back to Proxima Centauri.
In the central area of No. 1 Space City, Li Rui sat alone in the laboratory, counting the material reports sent by Yuandi. Beside him is Soria, five years of construction, the current Proxima Centauri construction system has been very perfect, and she, the ancestor, has also been freed from the busy construction work and has become Li Rui's temporary assistant.
"Well, that's enough for now." Li Rui clicked on the table, very happy.
It's been five years since I came to this universe, and I've finally collected enough of my divine resources. Five generations of gods, it's really exciting.
"By the way, what about Qi Lin, is she still on Earth?" Li Rui looked at Soria on the side.
"Yes, Lady Kirin is still spreading knowledge and teaching those humans in the Heluo Valley."
Li Rui couldn't help but be a little curious: "How far has it got?" β
Four years ago, after the basic system of Proxima Centauri was built, Qi Lin ran to the earth with nothing to do, saying that it was to speed up the civilization process of the earth, and the earth would still face the fate of being invaded by the time of the province. At that time, Li Rui didn't think much about it, anyway, it wasn't a bad thing, so he let Qi Lin go. Since there are a lot of things on Proxima Centauri's side, he doesn't pay much attention to it, so he doesn't know how the ball is developing now.
"With the intervention of Ms. Qi Lin, the current level of civilization in East Asia has greatly improved, and it has crossed the current civilization, from the Stone Age to the Iron Age, and began to build cities spontaneously. However, it seems that it is somewhat unexpected by Ms. Kirin, because of the worship of her, humans have established a belief that she is the creator of the human race, and call Ms. Kirin the mother goddess. In view of this situation, we judge that the earth has a tendency to develop towards a theocratic civilization. β
The more Soria spoke, the more strange the expression on Li Rui's face became: Is it a theocratic civilization, this is not the future path of the earth. So Qi Lin, this is ...... Playing off?
"Forget it, I'd better go and see for myself." Li Rui stood up and opened the space door.
β¦β¦
Above the earth, Li Rui reappeared. The Heluo River Basin, if it is divided according to later generations, is the Central Plains region. It has superior natural conditions and is one of the important birthplaces of ancient Chinese civilization.
I haven't seen it for five years, and the ground under my feet has undergone earth-shaking changes. I remember that five years ago it was a wild place, and all kinds of plants bloomed in their primitive wildness. Relying on this plain, all kinds of animals live in it, and there are many fierce beasts such as jackals, tigers and leopards, which are completely natural and wild. But today, five years later, as far as the eye can see, at the edge of the vast soup soup, a huge city rises from the ground, like a giant beast crawling on the water's edge, bowing its head to get water. Around the city, large areas of farmland rise and fall with the autumn wind, like a sea of gold.
In the middle of the fields, there are many people wearing straw hats who are harvesting their crops, and their faces are full of happy smiles. Li Rui could also see that at the edge of the farmland, several strangely dressed people were holding some kind of ceremony, and there was a small statue in front of them, which seemed to be some kind of sacrifice to thank the heavens.
Look at the city again, the city wall is more than ten meters high, more than ten kilometers wide from north to south, more than 20 kilometers from east to west, and the main roads in the city are criss-crossed, dividing the whole city into several large areas. Within each precinct, there are many small roads that divide it into smaller markets. Looking down from the sky, the whole city looks like a chessboard.
Looking at the city under his feet, Li Rui couldn't help but have some doubts: whether Qi Lin had copied the ancient city, this regular pattern was too familiar.
Tens of thousands of years ago, in the primitive era, suddenly seeing such a majestic city and busy farming life, always gave people a sense of chaos intertwined with time and space.
After looking at it for a while, Li Rui didn't continue, and after locating Qi Lin's location, he teleported towards that position again.
As soon as the picture turned, Li Rui appeared in a palace.
The palace is tall and the tallest building in the city. Looking at the style of the building, it should be some kind of temple or something. However, the interior of the temple is very empty, there is almost no decorative thing, the rough bluestone floor is not even polished, the stone is carved out of the throne, and the statues erected on both sides, the sculptures on the throne are full of rough style.
Looking at those sculptures, it seems that they are the two Transformers warriors that Qi Lin and she brought with her when they came here.
As soon as he entered here, Li Rui realized a problem: whether to say it or not, the civilization that was born and the civilization developed by nature are different in their background. In the Overworld, races that have gone through a complete process of civilization have their own spiritual qualities. This is often reflected in the national spirit, traditional aesthetics, values, etc.; In this world, after Qi Lin's training, although they have spanned tens of thousands of years of accumulation in just a few years in the development of science and technology, their inner spirit is still in the primitive era, advocating force and lacking aesthetics.
This can be seen from these decorations, and the worship of beauty here is still the supremacy of power. For example, those jackals, tigers and leopards that look very fierce, and the beasts that are cobbled together with various beast parts and don't know what their names are.
Such a civilization is not a healthy civilization, rich in material and lacking in spirit.
Li Rui didn't show up immediately, but just hid in the shadows, listening to what these people were going to do.
"Mother Goddess, the people of Sudi came to Los Angeles to meet Mother Goddess. They brought with them mighty slaves in exchange for the blessings of the Mother Goddess and taught them about the cultivation of grains. The crime of taking slaves offends the majesty of the Mother Goddess, and we ask the Mother Goddess to allow us to destroy the Su tribe! β
A strong man wearing some bird feather ornament and half-body animal skin prostrate on the ground and pay homage to the idol. Behind him, there were several other people who were similarly dressed, but not as ornate as the man was, kneeling, trembling and with a look of horror on their faces.
Li Rui, who was hidden in the shadows, frowned, it seemed that Qi Lin was conveying some kind of idea to these people, such as the abolition of slaves, but it didn't seem to work very well.
"Smack......
Suddenly, a hand was placed on Li Rui's shoulder.
"Why are you here?" Qi Lin's voice came from behind her.
Li Rui turned to look at her, well, it's still so beautiful, and there is no big change, "The resources needed for the first fifth-generation transformation on my side have been collected, come and say hello to you." β
"So fast?" Qi Lin was a little surprised.
This universe is still in the Wild Era, and the Great Insect Bridge System of the Kamigawa Civilization has just begun to be established, far from the extent to which later generations have spread across the known universe. After 30,000 years, the four major god-making civilizations with great fame do not even have a shadow, and it can be said that the entire known universe is allowed by the Transformers, so the resources are collected very quickly. After all, after being unscrupulous, many crude methods can be used - such as directly destroying certain planets and collecting the resources needed from the planet's wreckage.
Hearing Li Rui's explanation, Qi Lin also decided to go back, but she was still a little relieved about these people.
Li Rui couldn't help but sigh when he saw her eyes looking at the person kneeling there, and he didn't hide his thoughts, and told Qi Lin about the problems that exist in this civilization at present.
Qi Lin obviously showed a stunned expression, and was silent for a long time before replying, "No wonder I always felt that something was wrong, it seems that I was in a hurry." β
"Both material and spiritual are indispensable. Now you have given them the means to increase their productivity, but their spiritual civilization has not kept up, and it is not a good thing for the earth or the known universe to continue to develop like this. β
Through the reading of dark data, Li Rui has discovered that in the past five years, with Los Angeles as the center, hundreds of tribes of all sizes have moved into Los Angeles in various ways. Those who obeyed were fine, but those who did not obey were bloodily killed by the rebels, and then the rest were moved into Los Angeles.
Qi Lin gave them technology, gave them shelter, and gave them too much, making these people think that they were the people of the Heavenly Scroll, invincible and invincible. However, warm swaddling clothes cannot cultivate a nation of self-improvement, and they will be spoiled. In this way, the emergence of a theocratic civilization is almost inevitable.
"I see." Qi Lin nodded, still a little sad in her heartβshe seemed to have messed things up.
Li Rui smiled and said, "Come back to Proxima Centauri with me first, and I'll take a look on this side of the earth." After you finish leveling up, I will give you back a normal development of the Earth civilization. β
"You ......"
Li Rui seemed to know what she wanted to say, and gently stroked her face: "We still know what to do between the two of us, just wrap it up on me." Besides, I may not be able to do it well, so I'll just give it a try. β
While speaking, Li Rui opened a space door: "Let's go back and prepare to upgrade the divine body first." β
Qi Lin obediently followed him and stepped into the space door.
The poor old priest and the group behind him could not have imagined that their god was gone by this time, and that he had no time to take care of them......
