Chapter 291 Times have changed

After people on earth traveled to another world, they faced the invasion of zombie viruses and had to explore their genetic potential. The research on viruses has greatly exceeded the era of the earth in terms of depth and breadth.

There are hundreds of virus research institutes throughout Dragon City, and the so-called "genetic medicine" is also inseparable from viruses.

After being screened by the zombie crisis, humans who have survived to this day have greatly strengthened their immune systems and are not afraid of most viruses.

However, in order to ensure that the zombie crisis will not come back again, legal virus research institutes will take precautionary measures in advance when preparing new viruses to ensure that the virus is not contagious to humans.

"In other words, this is most likely a 'surgical virus attack' specifically targeting 'Lingchuang Biology'?"

Meng Chao thought thoughtfully, "So, what happened when this giant sandworm suddenly expanded several times, mastered new skills, and upgraded from a 'monster' to a 'super beast'?"

Just as Takano was about to answer, a cry of surprise came from the screen monitoring the No. 4 garbage dump, and the entire ground collapsed.

It turns out that this surface is composed of countless garbage and is riddled with holes by giant sandworms. It has long been extremely crispy.

In order to drag out the corpse of the super giant sandworm, the staff accidentally hit the most fragile structure underground and smashed a lot of equipment underneath.

"I come."

Takano said on the communication channel.

Then, I sat down in the laboratory, on a chair that looked like a dental examination chair but was covered with dense tubes.

His head was gradually enveloped by a super brain.

The pipelines were shining brightly, as if spiritual power was flowing out continuously along the eyebrows and temples, along the network, directly to the No. 4 garbage dump.

Something incredible happened.

A slightly clumsy giant sandworm suddenly raised its head and penetrated deep into the sewage pipe with ten times the dexterity.

It was like a scalpel reaching for the lesion, pinpointing the location of the giant sandworm, devouring the surrounding garbage and rocks that blocked the workers' progress, and quickly clearing a passage.

As the winch slowly rotated, the steel cable dragged the soft cloth, and finally dragged the corpse of the super giant sandworm to the ground.

The staff cheered.

Gao Ye breathed a sigh of relief, took off his super computer, stared at the giant sandworm on the screen, and murmured: "It's so beautiful..."

"Director Gao, were you controlling that giant sandworm just now?"

Meng Chao asked with great interest, "I never knew that a beast master could control biological beasts from such a long distance."

"Now Dragon City's network is becoming more and more stable, and 9G technology is enough to transmit human brainwaves and mental power. Beast masters and biochemical beasts do not have to stay together - of course, they must also have strong enough mental power to

Perform remote control."

Takano answered casually, then looked at the sewage pipe on the screen, pondered for a moment, and said, "When I controlled the giant sandworm to drill down just now, I found that deep in the sewage pipe, there was a lot of industrial sewage and chemical waste.

of silt.

"I wonder if the giant sandworms devoured the complex sludge and were stimulated by the 'mutant rabies virus', which resulted in unknown mutations.

“On this point, we have to wait until we collect samples of industrial sewage and contaminated sludge for further testing and experiments before we can draw a conclusion.

"In any case, this super giant sandworm is an out-and-out miracle. How spectacular and beautiful it is. This is the most perfect flesh-and-blood machine. It is better than the poor scrap metal of the 'Tiangong Machinery'."

Much superior, this is the future of our civilization!"

Meng Chao stared at Gao Ye for a long time: "Director Gao, you seem to be very... disgusted with rune machines?"

Takano smiled: "We graduates of Monster University are very disgusted with rune machines, aren't we?"

"That's true."

Meng Chao thought for a while and said, "Rune machinery consumes more crystals, has a higher failure rate, and causes serious pollution. In many cases, it is indeed not as green, efficient, and pollution-free as biochemical modulation technology."

"In addition, the rune machine has one of the most serious problems - with the continuous development of automation technology, runes with various new functions are constantly being discovered and researched, and it is gradually occupying the positions of most ordinary people.

.”

Takano was very happy to have found the giant sandworm, and his attitude towards Meng Chao also improved a lot. His face was full of interest, and he was very interested in making him a confidant.

Many people with withdrawn personalities are like this. Usually their mouths are closed like a floodgate. Once the gate is opened to release the flood, they often talk endlessly.

"Today's Dragon City is in a very embarrassing contradiction."

Takano said, "On the one hand, the top leaders of Dragon City are clearly aware that it is impossible to conquer and rule the vast alien world with a mere tens of millions of people. If they want to implement effective rule, they can only continue to develop network and automation technology, and use talismans."

We will add machines and super brains to replace humans.

“But on the other hand, before we expand to the surrounding areas and seize enough living space, Dragon City cannot provide sufficient and dignified jobs for tens of millions of citizens.

"So, when the rune machinery equipped with the latest model of super brain replaced humans in one position after another, showing ten times higher efficiency than humans, there were millions or even tens of millions of young people looking for

Not working.

"What will happen if this kind of rune technology and automation technology continues to develop?

"The 1% of extraordinary people use spiritual energy to transform their nerves, and the nerve information transmission speed reaches ten times or even a hundred times that of ordinary people. The gap between extraordinary people and ordinary people is like the gap between ordinary people and insects.

"For such extraordinary beings, instead of leaving the work to ordinary people, it is better to use their own incomparable mental power to do it through 9G or even 10G networks, remote control drones, spider chariots, and various automated machinery.

Completion - Even after the work is completed, it is better to pay for it out of your own pocket and support ordinary people with nothing to do than to let them clumsy and mess up the work.

"Over time, ordinary people have lost the ability to work. No matter how hard they work, or even if they are willing to study and work 24 hours a day, they cannot work day and night like machines in crystal mines with super strong radiation.

.

"Gradually, ordinary people can no longer find their place in civilization - for the first time in human history, 99% of human beings have become useless. Don't you think such a future is very scary?"

"No, it's not that exaggerated as you said, right?"

Meng Chao forced a smile and said, "I have learned that during the Industrial Revolution in the history of the earth, many people were worried that machinery would replace humans. Workers even rushed into the factory and smashed the rumbling machinery to pieces. As a result, the whole

In two to three hundred years, not only have human beings not been replaced by machines, they have also developed a splendid civilization and created countless new jobs.

"Are you a little...unfounded?"

"The industrial revolution was accompanied by bloody colonization. The so-called splendid civilization was created by throwing hundreds of millions of ordinary people into mechanical gears and watering them with their blood and tears. When colonization reached its limit, civilization also reached its limit and had to be used twice.

The world wars and the Great Depression came to restart.”

Takano said calmly, "Don't get me wrong, I am not the kind of moralist who is compassionate and compassionate, and I have no objections to colonizing other worlds, enslaving alien creatures, and squeezing out the last drop of their blood and sweat.

"I just doubt that the resistance of alien creatures is as weak as the backward civilization on the earth in the past. A country covered with gold can be conquered with dozens of matchlock guns. Such a good thing can really happen to the people of Longcheng

On your body?

"If not, with limited space and resources, 99% of ordinary people will become burdens, baggage, and waste.

"Don't think I'm being alarmist, and don't think that the first industrial revolution did not obliterate the meaning of ordinary people's existence. The second, third, fourth and fifth industrial revolutions can never obliterate - in this

In a world where the rate of evolution and mutation is hundreds of times faster than that of the earth, no species, not even humans, who claim to be the soul of all things, can never be eliminated.

"In fact, today's 'thinking machines' that are engraved with runes, driven by crystals, and implanted in super brains and even the central nervous systems of monsters are fundamentally different from the machines of the first industrial revolution.

“The latter cannot replace 90% of human functions and still requires humans to operate, maintain and repair.

"If the former continues to develop, it will be able to operate, maintain and repair on its own. In some unmanned factories with a high degree of automation, rune machinery can even produce rune machinery. The entire process does not require human participation at all.

"More importantly, human beings today are completely different from those during the first industrial revolution.

"On Earth, no matter how big the difference between ordinary people and superiors, there is at least one thing that is almost the same, and that is their flesh and blood.

"Even the smartest people in high positions cannot think a hundred times as well as ordinary people.

"Even the strongest leader cannot defeat hundreds of ordinary people by himself.

"Even if the superior has hundreds of the most advanced machines, he still needs thousands of ordinary people to work for him, and perhaps hundreds of guards to manage them. And these workers and guards have families, and their families are ordinary people.

, just like this, the strength of thousands of ordinary people gathered together can still compete with the superiors and his machines.

“This makes those in power dare not ignore the existence of ordinary people.

"Whether it is to appease ordinary people, fear the anger of ordinary people, or seek to plunder profits from ordinary people, those in power have to rack their brains to maintain a balance between themselves and ordinary people.

"Even if time goes back thousands of years, in the bloodiest and darkest era of slavery, human beings who are slaves at least have the value of being enslaved and exploited. The existence of this value allows slaves to compete with slave owners, and staged a game

A story that is both uplifting and uplifting.

"But times have changed, classmate Meng Chao, times have changed.

"Transcendents themselves are not scary, nor are fully automated rune machines equipped with super brains. The two combined are enough to deprive 99% of ordinary people of the value of being enslaved and exploited, rendering them useless anymore.
