Christmas Free Extra: The Road to Becoming a Pioneer (8500)
For the Pioneer Space Explorers duo, it all happened suddenly.
Because Shao Shuangyue and Jiu Ming had just experienced a difficult exploration mission, and when they were about to go back to their hometown to rest for a while, they were directly pulled over by the Central Committee through the official mission channel.
Not to mention the official commission of Jeongguk, when it comes to this mission, the two of them are really messed up, and they can't help but want to pour bitter water.
In fact, when they were doing the live demo of the mission, they had already poured it over to their own audience.
It was a special mission called [Pioneer Guidance], and according to senior personnel within the space, this type of mission was a special verification process to check the purity of the 'Pioneer Value', which was related to the category of subsequent Pioneer Missions.
In general, there will be nothing dangerous about such a special task, but it will be absolutely very difficult.
Shao Shuangyue and Jiu Ming naturally didn't know what kind of messy setting this 'pioneer value' was, but they thought that it was about the same as the exorcism power in her room, and Jiu Ming's dragon cancer power.
All in all, after preparing a large number of measures to deal with extreme environments, the two set off and began this 'guidance' trip.
At the beginning of the mission, they were transported to a continent that seemed to be a round place.
The continent is flat, with few peaks, just endless plains, scattered hills, and unconventional lakes and oceans that take on a variety of geometric shapes.
At first, Shao Shuangyue thought that this might be some kind of special flat continent world, such as the flat world and the like - but when Jiu Ming flew to the high altitude to test the specific situation of the continent, the result made the two explorers who said that they were not new and that they were old and not old opened their mouths wide and were dumbfounded.
Because they are in a 'ring world'!
The so-called Ring World is a man-made giant building built around a star or other light source, wrapping it around, and drawing its energy to create an extremely terrifying and suitable living environment, which is a kind of star-level super building.
And the 'guiding world' in which they are located is such a circumferential world that is tens of thousands of times larger than the earth's area.
It is only in a purely artificial world such as the circumference that the coastline is a straight line, and the lake is likely to be a circle or a square.
Looking at the sun and sky from the world is different from looking at the sun from the general world, because the sun never sets, but the nanobots in the atmosphere will automatically enter the light-absorbing mode at 'night', turning into a layer of opaque solar film, bringing darkness to the earth.
In general, the day and night and the ecological situation around the world are quite normal.
And Shao Shuangyue and Jiu Ming, their task is to lead a group of barbarians to develop a 'civilization' in this ring world.
"Good brother, isn't this a free point?"
After seeing this task, Shao Shuangyue couldn't help but complain to Jiu Ming: "Lead the barbarians to develop civilization? I'm familiar with this, teach them to make fires, learn to build houses, build settlements, and have a bit of division of labor and language. β
"Indeed." And Jiu Ming touched the golden Egyptian-style necklace on his chest, he groaned in doubt, frowned, and said: "But in theory, it shouldn't be that simple - the guidance task is indeed not dangerous, but it definitely shouldn't be so simple." β
"Let's see what about the primitive races."
Jiu Ming's suggestion was indeed very sound, and Shao Shuangyue also felt that she should see what the mission goal was...... What if that's where the goal comes in? For example, give them a group of jellyfish, and a group of trilobites as natives who need to be guided.
Lead these guys to develop civilization......
That difficulty, but it really deserves the pain on the face of the explorer who told them these news in the first place, it was like the expression of an outsider who had suffocated three cans of bean juice in one go.
The results of the examination are not bad, but they are definitely not good.
The race they named 'O' is a pale silver humanoid creature that looks somewhat human-like on the outside, but has a translucent outer skin.
It's not bad, because the mission goal, the indigenous race of the world, 'Ao', is not a primitive creature that has no brains and no brains and underdeveloped nervous systems - they even have a fairly good foundation, and if the brain is fully developed, it should be no worse than humans.
It's not good, it's because this race has never tried to use the brain.
Yes, that's right, they never used and never needed to use their brains.
Why?
The answer is also simple.
That's because the environment around the world is so good that living things don't need to think, explore, or think about it at all, and they can 'live' comfortably and comfortably.
"Woo β woo β woo β, what kind of ghost world is this?!"
After a period of detection, Shao Shuangyue was shocked to find that all kinds of shrubs, grasses, and trees on the dense plains of this world were all a special kind of modified creature, a special 'agricultural crop'!
The trees of this world grow bread with a taste similar to that of chocolate bread, and the trees themselves taste similar to beef jerky, with life elements that can fully meet any needs of local life.
Weeds are an excellent seasoning, whether it's roasted over a fire and powdered, or soaked in a soup to bring a refreshing aroma.
And the shrubs here grow almost any berry - according to Jiu Ming's tasting report, there are apples, pears, durians, strawberries, and all the special textures and flavors that he has never eaten.
In addition, there are giant plants in the ground, which are also plants that can be used directly, seaweed in the sea, flowers on mountain cliffs, and many other ......
There is even a huge live food processing plant, whose ecological form resembles a moving forest, which will randomly move around the earth, sowing seeds of various modified plants with different tastes to ensure the stability of the overall ecosystem.
In this circumferential world, all the food is readily available, and you will not starve to death if you lie motionless on the ground.
In such a world, do you really need to use your brain to survive?
- Wisdom is not a necessity for survival.
Through the special circumstances of this world, Shao Shuangyue and Jiu Ming can be regarded as fully understanding this truth.
The method of conception of the Austrian race is that the two Austrian races are fused together, and then split into a main body containing the memories of the original two individuals, and seven or eight derivatives as 'children', in a sense, this is similar to the way the slime reproduces, maybe the Austrian race is some kind of high-level slime.
All in all, in such a well-established ecological environment, the Austrians have no worries about survival, they do not and do not need any technological development, and because of this, they do not have any curiosity and no reason to have any desire to explore.
Guide the Austrians to develop civilization?
Shao Shuangyue had two big races, and even began to drive the mecha around the sky, and Jiu Ming would even rather go to the sea to catch fish than think about this problem.
But this is only temporary, they are explorers after all, and they can't escape forever.
Subsequently, based on the explorations of the two explorers, they obtained a lot of valuable information from the ruins of a surface research institute.
Shao Shuangyue and Jiu Ming finally knew that this ring world was a refuge built by the super civilization 'Omore' in the guiding universe for other lower civilizations in the universe in order to avoid the final apocalypse.
The ancient super civilization 'O'Mor' and another ancient super civilization 'Gashi' are natural enemies, one of them is an electromagnetic life with a substance, born in the sun's corona, with the flow of electrons as the basic information structure, and after arriving on the planet, the individuals of the Omor civilization can freely change their entities by manipulating metal, and achieve various transformations.
The other is gravitational life without substance, 'Gashi' was born in the mass well of supermassive stars in the primordial universe, and later lived around large stars and black holes, they are used to the warped space, the flat four-dimensional universe is unacceptable to them, and supernovae and gamma-ray bursts will destroy their gathering place, so the Gashi are committed to collapsing all the stars in the entire universe into black holes, and turning them into a stable and suitable environment for them to live.
Naturally, O'Mor wanted to stop each other, but because the life forms of the two sides were too different, by the time O'Mor civilization sensed that the stars of the entire universe were slowly collapsing themselves at an inexplicable speed, and sensed the existence of a super civilization whose technological level was not inferior to their own, they were already too late, and countless civilizations had been destroyed as a result.
There are too many civilizations β and the form of gravitational life is very discrete and grand, and it has a completely different logic of thinking from ordinary material life β that was destroyed by the extinguishing of the sun, and O'Mor, the self-proclaimed son of the sun, decided to protect these weak 'compatriots'.
Yes, for the ancient super civilization, all the life born from the sun was the future compatriots of Omori, who divided the universe, displaced the astral matter, and created the 'Great Void Zone', which divided the universe into two regions, the upper and lower regions, and prevented the expansion of the masters.
But this is not a cure for the symptoms, gravitational creatures are born beyond time and space, can move at the speed of light, and the faster-than-light technology of the Gashi is also very mature, so the Omori created the 'Black Domain'.
They have created many 'singular layers' that can wrap entire star systems, and the singularity layer has the characteristics of a black hole singularity, which can completely isolate the internal and external information exchanges, and gravity is also in it, which can almost be said to be a small universe in a pocket.
The rivers and planetary systems in the Strange Layer will not be discovered by the Gashi, because they will not be able to detect the relevant gravitational fluctuations, and they will feel that there is nothing in this place.
The Black Domain envelops the entire 'Upper Universe', and all of this does not exist for the masters.
However, in order to better conceal it, each planetary system will be shielded by a separate layer of the Strange Layer, preventing the civilization within it from peering outside, and the Gasshi civilization will detect the 'observation of itself', and then expose the existence of the Strange Layer.
The Ring World is built by the Omore civilization in order to make the alien civilization that migrates here suitable for them, and they protect many of the 'compatriots' whose home system has been destroyed, and the ecology of the Ring World can only generate all kinds of food suitable for them by detecting the characteristics of the races that live on them.
The Ao are one of them, their sun was collapsed into a black hole by Gashi seven million years ago, and the few surviving individuals were brought back to the world by O'Mor, hoping that they can redevelop their civilization.
"But ...... 'O'Moore' failed."
Viewer of the information left in the Ecological Research Institute, Shao Shuangyue couldn't help but swallow her saliva, obviously shocked by such an ending.
But whether it was her or Jiu Ming, the light flashing in her eyes was full of curiosity: "The masters completed the 'black hole engine' by constructing the black hole structure, and obtained an energy source of almost infinite force, and they reached the grand unified field theory by dissociating the basic matter, and they can freely control the fundamental force - this civilization began to modify the constants of the universe, so that the speed of light in the universe in a small area accelerated, and the strength of the structural binding force decreased. β
"Heavenly Venerable ......"
Jiu Ming exhaled at this moment, he was not a fish that slipped through the net of compulsory education, so he could still understand the very clear and simple concepts specially written by these Omori people, and the dragon king almost sighed: "Because of the acceleration of the speed of light, all the substances that are combined together by electromagnetic forces will all slow down...... The density of matter will also decrease, except for the black holes controlled by the masters! β
"And the universe controlled by the Omors will rapidly age and collapse, and as electromagnetic lifeforms, their life forms will also change drastically because of this, making it difficult to survive!"
This was the end of the war - the Gammers forced the Omors out of the universe by modifying the cosmological constant, and the Omoriers were forced to leave their homeland through the 'Great Rift', a super-giant void rift that crisscrossed the universe and migrated to other universes.
But the Gashi are not a particularly strong race in nature, and after driving out the hostile, powerful and dangerous Omori, these gravitational beings lie dormant in the dark, silent, cold, and crooked cosmic space that is most suitable for them to live inβbecause of the space-time distortion caused by black holes, a single hibernation of them may well cause a planet to give birth to life and then destroy it.
It's like people who close their eyes in the twilight, they don't want anything but the 'darkness'.
Therefore, Gashi did not go out of his way to find those pocket universes wrapped in strange layers, so that these ring worlds that were protected by Omoor in the past can still exist.
However, without the guidance of Omori, many races in the ring world have erupted into various problems, and the ring world where Ao is located, except for the Ao race, has basically been wiped out, and even the Ao race has degenerated into a race that can only eat and reproduce, and can not think about anything else.
- Guide these forgotten curious, exploratory and distant races to develop civilizations, leave the world and pass through the Ring of Wonder.
Then, whether this race wants to challenge the Gashi, or go to other universes like the Omories, it is the 'unknown' of the future, something that can be 'explored'.
The true meaning of the pioneer space mission is thus open to them.
γBecome a Pioneerγ
Or maybe it's just an adventurer or an explorer.
There is no distinction between pioneers, adventurers and explorers, Shao Shuangyue and Jiu Ming are very qualified adventurers, and they are also very good at speaking of explorers, so the pioneer space has opened up this world for them about pioneer qualifications.
"Although I understand that this is the love that space has for us, it feels too strange no matter how you think about it!"
Shao Shuangyue couldn't help but complain to Jiu Ming: "Our strength is not even the Earth Immortal, and we are suddenly going against a group of super civilizations that can manipulate the universal constants, and how do you look at it?" Isn't that a bit excessive? β
"Sort of? Sister Frost Moon, this is obviously super excessive, okay! β
said so, but both Jiu Ming and Shao Shuangyue actually knew very well that this mission had nothing to do with strength.
Rather, it doesn't need strength.
Gashi are super civilizations that have existed since the birth of the universe, they are immortal by nature, and they have always maintained a 'quiet wait' except for the war with Omor, and basically do not react to the outside world - because the time of existence of many civilizations is like a speck of dust floating in front of human eyes, unless the sun is dazzling and reflected, and it happens to be seen, otherwise it is impossible to detect it at all.
In other words, it's the ultimate autistic race.
There is no point in confronting with strength, a super civilization collective that should have reached the first level of the return to the void can basically go sideways, the explorers of the pioneer space are still a little bit, and it may be possible to wait for a few more decades.
Now, all the pioneer space needs is a heart to guide civilization forward.
But the situation of the Austrians is also too tricky.
Today's Austrian people are basically just lives for the sake of living, as soon as they are born, they do not worry about eating and drinking, there are no harmful germs in the world, and all larvae can thrive.
However, a considerable number of larvae have forgotten the meaning of 'living', they cannot grow up, and they will die in their early years because they forget how to eat, and they will be recycled by the ecological intelligence around the world.
And the remaining part of the larvae, although they have learned to eat, but there is nothing left of them.
The Ao clan will gnaw on the surrounding grass and leaves every day, or the fallen fruits to live, so that they can live healthily, so they don't even need to move, if it weren't for the mating needs to fight to determine the strength and weakness and before and after, Shao Shuangyue was very skeptical that the Ao clan would degenerate into a worm slime.
So, how do you guide it?
A perfect world built by a super civilization, an environment where you can live without thinking, a race that has forgotten what hunting, exploration, civilization and knowledge are, a galaxy imprisoned in the Black Domain.
Exploring the duo, nothing but feels nothingness.
There is no point in curiosity.
The starry sky doesn't make sense.
There is no point in surviving.
Possibilities don't make sense.
Civilization makes no sense.
There is no point in continuation.
Whether it is Jia Shi, who has nothing to do in the outside world and can only sleep and wait, or just because of genetic instinct, living for the sake of living, and even eating is not out of self-will, Shao Shuangyue and Jiu Ming feel an indescribable nothingness.
Therefore, there is no way to start, there is no way to 'save'.
In the course of the mission, Shao Shuangyue and Jiu Ming tried many methods, such as guiding the Austrian juveniles to try to think, but because the first step, the 'necessity of thinking' did not exist, it was difficult to continue.
Wisdom is essentially produced by the continuous involution of intelligent life, but in an environment like the world, human beings cannot be involuted for eight lifetimes, is it really necessary to become smart?
Food doesn't need to be lit to be delicious, but it's unpalatable when lit, is there really life in such a world that would consider lighting a flame?
And the environment is absolutely suitable, it can't be done at all, there is no thunder, and there is no wildfire at all.
By the way, in addition to this, there is another difficulty.
That is, the world around is essentially a man-made world...... In this world, there is no natural ore that is too rich except for rocks.
A world without metal may also be able to develop civilization, but it is obviously beyond the capabilities of Shao Shuangyue and Jiu Ming.
There really isn't anyone who can expect the two of them to come up with some alcohol-punk, whale oil punk, and bone punk, right?
"Omore, Gashi, I'm XXXXX!"
In addition to making the audience laugh, the two mentally weakened explorers who were tortured by this mission still have some foundation after all - since the pioneer space has issued a mandatory mission, it means that he thinks that the two of them can complete it no matter what, just look at the way to achieve it.
And sure enough, after a period of muddy days, Jiu Ming posted a request for help on the Pioneer Space Forum, and when he was on the line by the way, he suddenly saw a message about the original candle day haunting everywhere.
Of course, this is not the point, although the image explained by the adventurer named Funiya looks like Su Sun, but Su Sun is a young man, not a white-haired old man.
Jiu Ming just suddenly remembered what Su Yan had said.
"The strong...... It is the evil one. β
The dragon king slowly sat up from the soft mattress grass, and he closed his eyes: "Destruction, but creation." β
"yes...... If it is said that all the 'beautiful appearances' make people stop in place and cannot move forward...... So destruction is a blessing! β
Jiu Ming gritted his teeth and stood up, and the beautiful young man of the dragon man was shrouded in the powerful power of the water spirit at this moment: "As long as it is still in this excessively beautiful environment...... The Austrians will never be able to move forward, they will always be this kind of beast that has no self-will, inferior to ants! β
"Sister Frost Moon...... I've got an idea! β
"You mean ......"
And Shao Shuangyue is obviously not stupid, she has actually thought of a similar idea a long time ago, but because she has experienced less after all, she is a little soft-hearted.
It's just soft-heartedness.
It must be said here in advance - Shao Shuangyue and Jiu Ming are not good people, they are both the purest 'pioneer space explorers', and they are the direct dependents of the strongest will to explore in the multiverse.
They are all seeds of 'pioneers'.
"I'm going to create a great flood...... Cleanse this group of 'Austrians' who have reached adulthood and completely lost their plasticity. β
Floating in the sky, overlooking a flat land, the dragon king's gaze was only pure coldness: "Look, these worms who only know how to eat, some of them even have their larvae forgotten to eat, in the near future, the Ao clan is likely to lose the meaning of existence because they forget how to eat, and they will be completely wiped out." β
"In that case, let's do it...... Sister Frost Moon, use your car to assist me, I will completely destroy the world ecology in this area, leaving only those newborn children, and then use spirit cards to awaken the genetic instinct in their blood, so that they can become 'civilization' again from the original barbaric era! β
Jiu Ming didn't know if he was right.
Shao Shuangyue didn't know if she was right.
The current Austrian tribe is indeed a meat mass that has no wisdom and is inferior to animals, they can't be educated at all, and they don't even know if they are alive.
No, in addition to 'life', does such a 'life' really have the concept of 'self'?
But just like that, choose to kill them, empty them, and give their next generation a completely new education...... Isn't it too arrogant?
So, is it correct?
The two of them didn't know, but they knew that if they wanted the Ao people to regain the meaning of their existence as intelligent beings, and regain their curiosity and desire to explore the distant starry sky, they could only destroy now.
Destroy this 'man-made Eden' created by Omor, and banish the Ao people to the original hell to endure hardships!
They are willing to bear this sin and responsibility, destroy the old Austrian race, and create a new Austrian race from scratch.
And they succeeded.
Jiuming set off a great flood, destroying the ecology of the world around the original settlement of the Austrians, and stopped the self-repair of ecological AI through the control center in the research institute, while Shao Shuangyue controlled his giant robot to reshape the terrain and release small robots to threaten the living environment of those newborn Austrians, forcing them to learn to think about how to 'escape' the hunting of robots in complex terrain environments.
Shao Shuangyue even drove her robot to the meteorite belt scattered around the world, dragging mineral meteorites to the ground - in addition to further exacerbating ecological instability, the various minerals contained in it were enough for them to use in the industrial age.
The process took a long time, but the pioneer space also helped, and after finding clues and starting their own training program, the growth of the Austrians began to accelerate.
Their genetic instincts began to re-energize, recalling their instincts to survive in harsh environments in ancient times when they were hunted by predators.
Because of the threat of death, they began to yearn to live.
Because of the harsh ecological environment, they began to desire to explore a better environment in the distance.
Because nothing is now satisfying one's desires, life begins to seek wisdom, thirst for better technology and knowledge.
Without nothingness, there is no existence.
Without fate, there is no possibility to pursue.
Without what has not changed, there will be no exploration of the unknown.
- Without greed in life, there is no motivation for action.
When the new Ao clan lights the torch and explores the 'Dangerous Cave Labyrinth' created by Shao Shuangyue, and finds a cosmic alloy longsword in the deepest part of the labyrinth, it all comes to an end.
The captain of the Austrian exploration team raised his sword and was crowned king, and a new civilization will, a civilization based on exploration, was reshaped.
Then Shao Shuangyue and Jiu Ming's 'pioneer value evaluation test' results took a 'D-'.
"What's that?!"
Seeing this achievement, Shao Shuangyue exploded on the spot: "We've worked hard for several yearsβuh, how long does the acceleration rate of the pioneer space take?" Anyway, it's taken so long to do my best to cultivate, how can I be D-ah?! β
Jiu Ming didn't speak, he didn't dwell on the results, but on the facts: "What the hell?" Can we make such a mess and be considered successful? Sister Frost Moon, you see, our spatial suffix has become a half-step pioneer (inferior)! β
Shao Shuangyue took a closer look, and the explosion was even more powerful: "Huh? What does this half-step, this inferiority mean?! What kind of third-rate upgrade system is this?! Could it be that there is such a thing as a half-step peak Great Perfection Pioneer (superior)?! β
"I'm not a pioneer of this kind, okay!"
Angry is angry, the duo is still very forced.
In the voice of ridicule from the live broadcast audience, the two sat down and had a serious discussion, and finally determined a fact.
Jiashi is likely to be the family of Dusk, and the appearance of the Ao clan is obviously also Dusk.
Although it may be only a small influence, and it may be an inevitable fate for them to become like this, but in any case, the smell of guiding the universe is too strong to be detected when you think about it.
And the reason why the pioneer space let them come to this world, in essence, is to hope that the two of them can become pioneers and guide the Austrian people out of the twilight.
He hoped that Shao Shuangyue and Jiu Ming could lead a group of ignorant and ignorant and ignorant and intelligent races with no curiosity or desire to embark on the path he hoped forβto make the entire Ao clan become the same existence as Shao Shuangyue and Jiu Ming.
It doesn't matter what means, it doesn't matter if you destroy the old civilization and create a new one, the 'Pioneer' has no good or evil, His love is too broad and gives so much distance that all stagnant beings need to suffer a fatal question before they want to be loved.
'Who are you to inherit the love of a pioneer?' β
If you don't want to accept it, you will continue to stagnate in the same place, and the pioneers will not lower the postgraduate examination, but they will not guide you.
But if you want to accept it, you either have to rise up, or you have to accept questioning.
"The oldest Austrian civilization, when they settled in the Ring World, swore to the 'Distant Horizon' that they would one day break through the cage and go to the other side of the Ring World and the Strange Layer, return to their home universe, take revenge on Gashi, or go to other universes like O'Moore."
"This oath was remembered by the pioneers, but three million years later, the Austrians have forgotten it, and the memories of their people are sealed in the genetic key, and it is difficult to open them."
"As the family members of the pioneers, we have come to guide the universe this time in order to remind the Ostra of their former hearts and fulfill their vows...... And whether we are essentially reshaping a whole new race, or using very bad methods of coercive oppression, it is not surprising that the ratings are low. β
Seeing that the task was summarized here, Shao Shuangyue couldn't help but sigh: "Jiu Ming, if you explore your method of mimicry a little more seriously, you should be able to find the genetic key of the Ao clan, right?" And if I had been a little more serious, I might have been able to scan it out. β
"We're still a little unqualified in terms of exhaustively studying the unknown and exploring the unknown."
With such self-doubts, Shao Shuangyue and Jiu Ming returned to the Earth Universe like this, preparing to relax in their hometown.
As a result, who knows, the two people who have just returned to Earth have been summoned by the Central Committee to enter cyberspace for a meeting as quickly as possible.
"What kind of task...... We're really tired, can't we take a break? β
Protesting in a low voice, Jiu Ming's cheeks bulged with anger, he touched his stomach, and complained, "At least let me eat something!" β
"Huh, what?! Wait a minute! β
But Shao Shuangyue's eyes lit up: "It means that we can go to the Earth Fleet at the edge of the galaxy and meet Brother Day?" β
"In addition, we can also meet many unknown cosmic races, the family of the Ancient Venerable?!"
[Yes.] Dao Sheng replied in a calm tone: [And we guess that the world distortion arc brought by our mission is enough to trigger the Harbinger Space to release the mission simultaneously - you should have received it now. γ
"Wow?! And the mission of the pioneer space! At this time, even Jiu Ming was attracted: "Destroy a ship of the Dusk Fleet to get an exploration point?" Destroying the flagship can take a lot of opening permissions?! β
When he arrived, the two half-step pioneers (inferior) let out cheerful pioneer voices in unison.
"Yay!"
Christmas is free! Merry Christmas everyone, and there may be an update tonight!
Remember to leave the monthly pass to me who is double~ And remember to give Su Sun a heart!
