I Really Didn’t Want to be a Savior

The start of the ninth timeline is indeed infinitely better.

With the help of salvation and the "Five Hundred Year Plan", mankind has made remarkable progress and made unprecedented strides. However, the war in the solar system was ultimately defeated without any power to fight back.

It seems that the fight is going back and forth, but in fact, every link in the battle is irreversibly pushing mankind into the abyss of despair.

ZS bacteria are too powerful.

Humanity's scientific and technological progress has not been of substantial help in the fight against ZS bacteria.

Humans in this timeline did have a chance to change the situation of the war.

For example, we strictly implement the protection policy formulated by Lai Wenming and never come into contact with the ground.

In theory, it is possible for humans not to be controlled.

So as long as the possibility of ZS humans being produced is cut off, the overwhelming advantage in technology will not be erased.

This was what Chen Feng summed up immediately. It was the most obvious mistake made by the human leadership this time.

The second wrong decision is that humans should be more decisive in destroying the earth's ecology.

Now that we have given up our homeland, we must give up more simply.

The third wrong decision was made earlier.

Humans shouldn't have left so many people in the solar system.

There are a few different hypothetical situations here.

Assuming that the dome was destined to come to the solar system, more people should have gotten out.

But the dome itself is a tool in the hands of the Compound Eyes, and it has also left the solar system and gone to the Proxima Galaxy.

Theoretically, if humans distribute the population and resources relatively evenly among the colonial galaxies within the Orion Arm, there is a chance that compound-eyed people will suffer from "difficulty of choice syndrome" and divert the solar dome to other places.

Or simply go more extreme and forcefully and deliberately concentrate resources to create a larger galaxy-level civilization in other galaxies, specifically to attract firepower and be targeted by the solar dome.

The probability of success of this move is low, after all, Voyager 2 exposed the coordinates of the earth.

If humans are compared to cancer, compound eyes can be compared to targeted drugs.

When the Compound Eyes take action, it will be the first time that targeted drugs are positioned, and the target will only be the solar system.

Unless... larger and more dangerous lesions are found in the human body in the universe.

Chen Feng's judgment is that if a super-high-level civilization has an extremely good understanding of the human body and the solar system, it can probably understand the potential of human beings in the home planet environment of the solar system.

It goes without saying that the super-order civilization and the compound-eyed civilization attach great importance to the solar system, otherwise this time they would not have the huge resources to create ZS bacteria in the solar system to destroy the parent star.

But if humans deliberately leave colonial galaxies outside that have a comprehensive civilization level that exceeds that of the solar system, compound eyes and super-order civilizations may make misjudgments and mistakenly believe that colonial galaxies are more suitable for human development.

Therefore, if the time comes and the colonial ship deliberately goes outside the sun dome to expose information, it is possible to attract the dome away.

That would give real freedom to people in the inner solar system. After Lai Wenming matured and Sergey was born, human civilization in the solar system could have created more.

In Chen Feng's opinion, after all, facts have proven that human beings have the greatest potential within the physical rules and cosmic environment of the solar system.

Even if it's just a gamble, it's worth it.

In short, leaving a huge population of 16 billion people is definitely a mistake.

These three most significant mistakes finally condensed into the result of the end of the solar system today.

The generation of world government leaders represented by Huazhong Cloud missed many opportunities to make the right choice.

Are these people too stupid?

Not necessarily.

Are these people not sufficiently enlightened?

Not necessarily.

The so-called right choice seems simple, but when the group that makes the decision is enlarged to the entire civilization, and the process is extended to a long and long history of hundreds of years, many seemingly accidental things have become a historical necessity.

The ultimate logical source of mankind's three major wrong decisions has returned to Chen Feng and the salvation created by him.

Chen Feng's original intention of creating salvation was to facilitate the strict implementation of the "Five Centenary Plan".

However, in the nearly five hundred years of evolution from the 21st to the 25th century, while Salvation has completed its basic tasks, it has also invisibly developed an overly strong control.

A thought cocoon that seemed to be only for saving the world, but actually radiated invisibly and affected the entire civilization in all aspects, and was deeply hated by Chen Feng, appeared.

The purpose of Chen Feng's attempt to weaken his own influence and expand the scale of his salvation was to shatter his personal image, dilute his own achievements, and break the control of civilization by the cocoon of thinking.

But unfortunately, as a dragon slayer, he ended up becoming the most powerful evil dragon.

This time the cocoon created by him was stronger and his influence was more stubborn.

Compared to his unintentional mistakes in the eighth timeline, what he did this time was to proactively contribute to the cocoon house.

Behind the appearance of the three major wrong decisions, there is another core error at a lower level.

Salvation was too superstitious about Chen Feng, and their thinking was trapped within the boundaries drawn by Chen Feng. They should question more and think more independently.

Since the compound-eyed person's method can change from "Song of the World" to S bacteria, and then to Z bacteria, then of course it can also become something else.

This is a very simple truth.

But so many smart people have not thought of it, or even if some people have thought of it, their unique opinions have not been respected.

Therefore, the merit of salvation is divided into three parts.

Although Salvation promoted the development of science and technology for five hundred years and even led to twenty years of miracles, at the critical moment it became the key factor leading to the defeat of mankind in the solar system.

The people who saved the world worked hard, but the direction was not correct enough, and they ended up playing a disgraceful role.

They become a fatal factor in the war situation.

Chen Feng believed that he was not qualified to accuse others, because it was the ideology he left behind that formed absolute control.

The salvation thinking model comes from himself. It seems democratic, but in fact it does not tolerate other voices.

For example, the Anle Project is a beautiful-looking thing. On the surface, it seems to have completed the sublimation of the species, but it has erased the genes that are most likely to have different consciousnesses.

Social stratification should be the natural result of countless individuals' independent choices, and the rulers should not draw such strong boundaries geographically and institutionally.

If the Comfort Plan is not adopted, perhaps the technological process will be a little slower, but when deciding whether to leave the solar system, perhaps some of the gene carriers left behind by the Comforters can take more people with them through advice and example?

That creates another new possibility.

What was wrong at one stage turned out to be correct at another new stage.

This is the interesting part of civilization and history. Everything is dialectical and flows endlessly.

Solidification equals failure.

Sergey realized all of this in his later years.

This pained Sergey.

He admired Chen Feng so much that he didn't even want to question Chen Feng in his heart.

So Sergey just made the decision on his own and swore to withdraw from salvation before he died, just to vent his final dissatisfaction.

But from beginning to end, he never criticized Chen Feng.

Sergey knew that his doubts were still doubts in the cocoon room, but he refused to break the control of the cocoon room himself.

Sergey believed that he was not qualified to accuse Chen Feng, and neither was anyone in the history of human civilization.

Only Chen Feng himself was qualified to repent after seeing this ending.

This is Sergey's highest belief.

Chen Feng sighed and sighed, "Sure enough, I have thought of it a long time ago. The result of absolute control is collapse. This is obviously my original concept, how come... I quietly forgot about it?"

Relying on implicit power to forcefully control everything, including people's ideologies, seems to be a shortcut to promote civilization and progress, and it almost gives the appearance of rapid progress.

However, progress is progress, but civilization has become fragile invisibly. The social structure only seems to be solid, but in fact it is already in a dangerous situation.

When there is a problem with the nature of the system, civilization loses the ability to correct itself and the error tolerance rate becomes low.

Ideology, these four simple words, has always been the core of the development of human civilization.

Primitive society has the ideology of primitive society, for example, good hunters are respected.

Feudal society had the ideology of feudal society, such as the divine right of kings and the great benevolence of the emperor.

Capital society and communist society also have different ideologies.

It is elusive and ubiquitous, affecting every decision of everyone in society in every aspect.

It is a collection of civilized consciousness that can be led by a certain group of people, but it should not and cannot be absolutely controlled.

After all, it should be a relatively reasonable choice made more proactively by productivity and group consciousness after the natural evolution of the human species.

If the leaders of the times and historical greats who lead civilization forward control the steering wheel of the ship, ideology is simply the river on which the ship travels.

We cannot rule out the possibility that a certain group of people or a certain system may make irrational choices and build the waterway crookedly.

This system will inevitably be eliminated, just like the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers that have changed their courses many times in history.

The channel has been missed, but the channel error will not affect the water circulation in the atmosphere.

As long as there is an atmosphere on the earth and rain, snow and frost fall, the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers will always flow into the sea.

The problem with salvation is that before Chen Feng himself could grasp the truly perfect system, the successors of salvation first deified him in their hearts, and then rashly thought that he had understood it, and regarded everything he left behind as unshakable. The golden rule then turned into a shackles.

The shackles are everywhere.

Using systems to control time can indeed achieve deceptively fast progress, but the shortcomings cannot be ignored.

This time Chen Feng paid a heavy price, but the gains in experience and lessons were also rich.

If you are wrong, admit it and improve in the future.

He decided to try to find a more compromise solution next time, instead of ignorantly trying to control everything by force.

He has now had a more comprehensive idea.

His direction remains unchanged, insisting on taking science and technology as the primary productive force and core element, with literature and art as a supplement.

But in terms of technological development, he will use more flexible methods to hide knowledge in institutions, and gradually release it through triggering according to changes in the external environment.

Just let yourself and Salvation serve as a treasure trove of knowledge waiting to be continuously discovered, and no longer let Salvation control anyone forcefully.

In addition, at the technological level, some staged things can be collected and put away first, and only preliminary experimental conclusions can be completed, and large-scale manufacturing is not necessary.

Certain staged technological changes may not have the value of being fully popularized.

For example, the first generation of strivers.

In the sixteen years from 2351 to 2367, mankind sent a total of eleven ships of the first generation Endeavor, sending out 330,000 people, which seemed pretty good.

But it cannot be denied that these eleven first-generation Endeavors consumed a lot of productivity and scientific research power that could have been used to cultivate the first-generation Dyson membrane.

Chen Feng hoped that humans would only develop and conduct technical verification at the beginning, but not waste manpower and material resources to create the first generation of Endeavor. Instead, they would invest more of the then fashionable and limited resources into the Dyson membrane project.

Even if the second-generation Endeavor is not manufactured, then the third-generation Dyson membrane will have a chance to be completed before 2390.

What was put into production for the first time was the third-generation Endeavor that could accommodate 300,000 people.

So in the eleven years from 2390 to 2401, the third generation of Endeavors can completely make up for the temporary slowdown in the pace of colonization in the previous decades, allowing the leadership to advance the timeline for deciding whether to migrate the entire civilization.

The leadership that made this decision will naturally be replaced by the group before Huazhong Cloud, and perhaps there will be different results, which may satisfy Chen Feng's expectations.

Chen Feng really wanted to know, if the Compound Eye Civilization was really fooled and put the dome in another galaxy, and he could feel complete freedom once he came here, how great would it be?

In the course of the first five hundred years of civilization, there were many details that could clearly be improved, which were even greater than the negative impact Fatty had on the Ouhe Group.

Chen Feng stood up and walked out of the reading room. He first walked around Sergey's cloning workshop, and then looked around the underground base.

The first thing he thought about was whether this underground base had aerospace capabilities.

If possible, it would be a good choice to just drive away from this base.

Unfortunately, no.

Sergei had no intention of leaving the solar system. He just wanted to hide deeper and safer, so he did not equip the underground base with a space navigation engine or a space-grade shield.

The main focus of underground base performance is stability, endurance and latency.

After he stopped thinking about it, Chen Feng's attention turned to the material inventory, the operating status of other equipment and facilities, and the intellectual brain core supporting Xiaowei, wondering how to move Xiaowei away.

Chen Feng spent about three days completing an in-depth inspection of the underground base and then started construction.

He successfully found many spare small quantum intelligence cores with basic functions, as well as some small engines and shield generators, etc.

He first followed the instructions and assembled a shuttle with an energy shield, a single transport capacity of 1,300 tons, and a load space of 1,500 cubic meters.

He finally had a complete set of modular parts to use, and an instruction manual to read!

Of course, in the past, he had to scratch his head even if he held the instruction manual.

But this time Master Chen has spent nearly a year creating thousands of short-circuit explosions and evolved into Master Chen.

He could handle the bulk parts in the past, and even the semi-finished modules now.

Chen Feng spent four days taking away most of the things that should be taken away from the underground base.

Including a large reserve of renewable biological batteries, small and medium-sized engines, intelligent brain chips, various detection instruments and communication instruments, as well as two sets of Galaxy armors made by Sergei himself.

It's a pity that he couldn't find reliable medium and large weapons. They were mostly individual equipment with low power, such as medium-range energy hand cannons, continuous snipers, heuristic individual mechanical beetle arrays, etc.

In short, everything that can be used is filled.

He used the inventory in the secret base to madly upgrade many of the configurations on Morrowind II, making the internal and external layout of Morrowind II, which had previously seemed like a shoddy work in a small workshop, become much neater, with more comprehensive functions and more detailed functional divisions.

The most important thing is that as he continues to add smart chips, the intelligence of Morrowind 2 gradually increases, and his personal workload when controlling the ship is greatly reduced.

On September 16, 2020, Chen Feng stood in a very large room in the central area of ​​the underground base, lost in thought.

There was a cube with a side length of ten meters suspended in mid-air in front of him.

The surface of the cube is translucent, and the light spots inside are flickering.

One quantum arc after another spreads out from the square grid on the cube. There are one hundred on each side of the cube, for a total of six hundred.

The other end of the arc is connected to the hemispherical protrusions on the four walls of the room.

This is the core of Xiaowei’s quantum brain.

He wants to take it away.

Once dismantled, the entire underground base will gradually lose control and collapse rapidly.

Chen Feng pressed the button, and Xiaowei fell into a short sleep. The cantilever slowly stretched down from above, and the brain core was sent into the maintenance pipe.

Twenty minutes later, the brain core will enter the cargo compartment of the transport shuttle.

After forty minutes, the outer shield of the underground base will collapse.

The base will be engulfed by molten magma.

Chen Feng strolled outside and then came to the workshop.

He first walked to the last two life-support capsules that still contained nutrient solution and looked at them.

A recent comprehensive physical examination of Fredis Sergey showed that he has gradually shown signs of genetic collapse.

At most, in two or three years, Freders will follow the old path of his predecessors, going to the ground via a small shuttle, and then patrolling the ground aimlessly until he dies somewhere at a certain moment. land.

According to Sergey's preset program, when Freders left, one of the two life-support capsules would start the next round of artificial culture program for cloned embryos.

If one fails, the other one starts right after.

Now that Chen Feng has taken away Xiaowei's intellectual brain core, it is impossible for these two embryos to be born.

But Chen Feng didn't feel any guilt.

He had done a routine check before and found that the DNA in the stem cells stored in the two life-support chambers had long been a mess and could no longer be cultured.

Operational records show that before Freders Sergei was born, cloning had already failed twenty-three times in five years.

"Freddes, come with me, it's time to leave here."

Chen Feng said to Freders who was still in a daze next to him.

The young man looked at Chen Feng blankly, "Follow me?"

Bang.

The next second, Chen Feng knocked the person unconscious, carried him on his shoulders, and walked out.

It was late at night outside at this time.

The brand-new Morrowind 2 was parked on the mountain range, and the robotic arm was carefully moving Xiaowei's brain core inside.

In ten minutes, the last piece of the Morrowind II puzzle will be assembled.

Well, the time for his departure is almost here.

There was only one last thing left to be done, the restoration of communications with the colonies.
