Chapter 1059: The Home Star (Part II)
"So...... The place where you were born is a planet full of contradictions, brutal competition, and plunder? Even the same kind will be divided into different countries and groups according to differences in genes, skin color, culture, religion, interests, etc., and the winner will get everything, and the loser will even be deprived of the right to live?"
After listening to Zhang Cheng's introduction, Gru's eyes lit up slightly, revealing undisguised curiosity.
You must know that almost all the planets in the universe that have given birth to life are usually divided into two situations:
One is that the inhabitants of the planet have completed internal unification and have begun to actively expand into outer space, which is the so-called interstellar civilization.
The second is that they have not yet begun to explore the endless starry sky, and are still firmly bound to the ground by the planet's own gravity.
The former may have completely disintegrated the original social structure and interest groups through the power of science and technology, and has undergone certain genetic modifications to ensure that there will be no internal problems at all.
The latter, on the other hand, is still in a state where several or even dozens of countries compete with each other for resources and living space, and it is impossible to unite at all.
In contrast, the earth, which has touched the threshold of interstellar civilization, looks very special, and it can even be said to be quite valuable for research.
Because on the one hand, it still retains relatively backward concepts such as state, religion, and ethnicity, and even does not hesitate to use war to achieve the goal of controlling resources and the economy.
On the other hand, however, it has formed several large coalition institutions, and there have been many proposals for a "community with a shared future for mankind", and the big countries have rallied more small countries around themselves through economic, political, military, and trade means.
The intricate struggles and cooperation within it, even Gru, as the master, can't help but have a strong curiosity to find out.
Zhang Cheng shrugged his shoulders indifferently and responded: "That's right, don't you think it's incredible? We call ourselves human beings, and call our home planet the Earth, which is a blue planet, located in the galaxy of the three-dimensional universe, very, very small, so small that almost all interstellar civilizations ignore it. ”
"Small, hahahaha! No! No! No! I think you have a misunderstanding of the word small. Perhaps in the past, Earth was indeed a small and inconspicuous planet. But since the birth of you and another Lord, it is no longer a name, but a planet full of legends. If you don't mind, can you show me around, as long as it hasn't been destroyed or hidden by you. Gru laughed and suggested.
"Destroy or hide?" Zhang Cheng raised his eyebrows in surprise.
Because he didn't understand why the other party thought he would do such a boring thing.
"Oh, depending on your reaction, you haven't destroyed your home planet yet, or have you hidden it?" Gru's tone also revealed a strong surprise, and he did not forget to explain: "You must understand that all of us at the moment of becoming the master, either desperately want to make a complete break with the past, and the best way is to destroy our home planet, kill all life on the planet, and wipe out the traces of its civilization. In this way, the Juggernaut will be able to hide the secrets and weaknesses of his past forever, preventing someone from using them for some ulterior purpose. In contrast, there are also some juggernauts who will hide their home planet in a private space that no one can find to secretly protect their home planet. ”
"I still don't understand! Why does the Lord have to hide the past? Could it be that a life like us, standing at the apex of the universe, will be affected by some low-level emotions?" Zhang Cheng asked with a subconscious frown.
You have to understand that when we are integrated into the main string, we are no longer the same version of ourselves, and in some way represent the will of the universe. But the universe is benevolent, and it does not deprive us of joy, anger, sorrow, and sorrow, so emotions still exist to some extent. Think about it, when you have lived for hundreds of millions of years, and suddenly see the parents who gave birth and raised you suddenly appear, will you have the urge to be excited, nostalgic, and cry bitterly? Believe me, when you are old enough, you will understand that our real enemies are not each other, but loneliness and loneliness......"
As he said this, Gru's insect-like eyes revealed a faint sadness.
But Zhang Cheng scoffed at this, sneered and shook his head: "I'm sorry, I'm not as sentimental as you." In fact, before I became the master, I made a complete break with the past. You may not believe it, but I have killed those I call friends and allies with my own hands, and I have not hesitated to send my once cherished partner into the arms of death. I had long regarded myself as a higher-level life form deep down, and that backward home planet was nothing to me. If someone wants to use this against me, I will not hesitate to break the necks of those so-called relatives and friends, and then find out who is behind it, and use my way to make the other party pay. ”
"So you don't mind if I go to your home planet?" Gru said cautiously, apparently not believing the words.
"Of course I don't mind! I've already told you the location, haven't I?" Zhang Cheng asked with a smirk.
"Well, in that case, I'll go now. Goodbye, my friend, and I wish you a fantastic start to this game. ”
With that, Gru shrunk his insect-like limbs into a shell, and his entire cabochon body suddenly tore open a spatial crack and burrowed in.
His use of rules is so pure that he doesn't need accurate coordinates at all to travel freely between high-dimensional and low-dimensional universes.
Looking at the crack that opened and healed quickly, Zhang Cheng muttered with disdain, "Mother planet? This kind of thing doesn't mean anything to me at all. Because on that planet, I am just a humble ordinary person, a bottom of society who barely survives on wages, and even disappearances and deaths will not cause any shocks, ordinary ones are like calm lakes, and they can't make any waves at all. ”
......
At the same time, Gru, who had crossed the gap in space, had already appeared out of thin air in the outer part of the solar system a few hours before Zhang Cheng disappeared out of thin air.
With his own strength, he found the blue planet with little effort, emitting the signal of civilization.
Without any hesitation, he crossed the distance that would be unattainable for humans as fast as he could, directly over the atmosphere, and appeared at the door of a bar.
Through the glass window, he clearly saw that Zhang Cheng, who still maintained the most ordinary human blood, was sitting at the table and drinking with another strange man, and from time to time he said all kinds of complaining words.
