The process of several dark energy extraordinary beings destroying hundreds of warships can be described as "destroying the dead" with an idiom.
But in fact, if we talk about efficiency, or "energy consumption ratio", they actually have an easier way to destroy these warships.
The reason why it was so... huge was actually more of a performance, performed for the people of the Federation Fleet to see.
If you want others to "feel" the terror of this extraordinary power without letting them experience it personally, of course you have to start with the visual aspect.
To kill a person, you only need a gun and a bullet, but such a scene must be boring and tasteless.
If you replace it with a six-tube Gatlin bursting with blue fire, wouldn't the sound and light effects be great
If it goes too far, a nuclear bomb will grow a mushroom, countless buildings will collapse in the shock wave, and countless people, animals and plants will be turned into fly ash in the high-temperature radiation.
Is the effect immediately full
Faced with Corning's inquiry, General Franklin expressed confusion. He was not pretending to be stupid, but he really couldn't understand.
He could guess that what Coning wanted to talk to him, or what he wanted to talk to the federal government about, was probably the way to obtain this extraordinary power.
But the question is, wouldn’t it be nice to hold such a magical power in your own hands
To put it bluntly, if he had such power, he would never allow a second person to appear so that he could do whatever he wanted.
"This extraordinary power, we call it dark energy, not only allows us to possess terrifying force, but also allows us to break through the limits of our physical lifespan."
Kening did not answer the other party's question directly, but offered another bargaining chip that was irresistible.
Regarding extraordinary power, if we only talk about its power, it may not be very attractive to these high-ranking people.
After all, without extraordinary strength, they still have "money power". (There should be "If you have money, you can do whatever you want.GIF")
Even, in their eyes, this extraordinary power would threaten their interests.
But "life extension" is different.
The richer you are, the more you fear death. This cannot be said absolutely, but there are really few exceptions.
Maybe... there may not be one exception among ten thousand.
Even ordinary people, as long as they are not the kind of people who suffer every day, no one is willing to reincarnate early if they can live one more day.
Not to mention the powerful people who enjoy happiness all day long!
Unfortunately, the world has always been relatively fair in terms of lifespan.
From the age of the earth to the current interstellar age, research on "life extension" technology has never been interrupted.
The rich and powerful can at most rely on blood transfusions to stay young, or they may be able to solve many fatal diseases, but they will still die when they reach the limit of their life span.
"Breaking the limit of physical lifespan?" General Franklin immediately became energetic, but his expectations were not very high.
In this world, if you find anyone and ask him to make wild guesses, he may not dare to guess that it will take two hundred years.
Although, in various fantasy myths, humans have also imagined endless life spans.
However, humans can still distinguish between reality and fantasy.
More importantly, humans have indeed encountered too many iron and steel barriers in life science and technology.
In order to study immortality, capital has used almost all means, and has also turned a prosperous planet into a zombie planet.
Under this situation, although human beings do not give up on "extending life", they have also fallen into despair.
His eyes swept across General Franklin's face. Coning knew instantly about the other party's psychological activities. He smiled disdainfully and said, "Yes, breaking through the limit of physical life! As long as you get started with extraordinary power, you can It can directly double the lifespan, and even have a lifespan of hundreds of millions of years.”
"..." General Franklin opened his mouth without making any sound. His first reaction to Corning's words was that he was bragging.
Billions of years of life
To have a life span of ten thousand years is enough... it's unimaginable.
"You think I am bragging because you know nothing about this extraordinary power. Once you truly understand it, you will know that what I said is not an exaggeration." Seeing the disbelief on the other person's face, Ke Ning had no choice but to explain more. After all, we still have to discuss cooperation with the other party.
"Are you going to hand over the method of obtaining this power to the Federation?" General Franklin asked after calming down.
Ke Ning couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and said with some humor: "What about dreaming? Even if you say it, it's 'teaching' rather than 'confiding'. Figure out where you should stand!"
"Yes, yes, that means, you should have already made detailed plans on how to 'teach' extraordinary power, right?" General Franklin is also flexible and flexible. He did not get angry at the other party's ridicule, but instead lowered himself even more. posture.
After all, who doesn’t want to live forever
In fact, the cooperation with the Federation is not so much to rely on them, but to save them from trouble.
In terms of simply promoting extraordinary power, the Internet in this world can already do a lot of things.
However, if you set up an "online school" on the Internet here, and the federal government over there declares it illegal, it will be a more troublesome matter.
There is an old saying that goes, "If you don't have enough success, you have more than enough failure."
For some people, you don't need to expect them to be of much help. Just asking them to stop causing trouble is a big contribution.
"Look outside again." As Kening said this, he raised his hand and pointed outside.
General Franklin's face was full of doubts. He turned to look in the direction that Corning was pointing, and his eyes fell on a satellite in space without any obstruction.
Yes, that satellite is the base of the Black Flag Pirates.
That satellite, just like the moon, has a surface full of craters, large and small.
It is small in size, has low gravity, has no atmosphere, and can only face the impact of meteorites. It is not surprising that it looks like this.
"What's the matter..." General Franklin was halfway through his words. He couldn't say the rest of the words, and he forgot to close his mouth.
I saw the satellite changing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
One change was that the volume expanded rapidly, enlarging it more than ten times in the blink of an eye.
General Franklin could still tell whether the photo was enlarged or the object was enlarged.
…because of the auxiliary chip.
Another change is that the surface of the satellite, with its rugged craters, also quickly became flat at the same time.
In addition to being flat, the "texture" also has obvious changes when viewed with the naked eye.
It was originally a rock, but now it has become a metal. The satellite seems to have changed from a stone ball to a metal ball.
Next, cracks like longitude and latitude lines appeared on the surface of this huge metal ball-like planet.
"Click click!"
It’s the fantasy sound in people’s heads.
Accompanied by the sound effects that people imagined, the metal planet began to twist and rotate, just like an invisible big hand turning a Rubik's Cube.
Some places are dented, some places are protruding, and some places are turned inside out.
General Franklin thought of the Death Star, the ultimate weapon of the Federation fleet.
It's just that the "Death Star" in front of us doesn't seem to have that kind of terrifying weapon system
"This is the academy we plan to use to teach extraordinary power." Before Franklin could ask, Corning had already told the purpose of this planet.
"Extraordinary Academy..." Franklin muttered, and asked with a somewhat complicated expression: "Are you really planning to... open this power to all the people?"
"Otherwise? Let it become the privilege of the powerful, so that the powerful can gain immortality and occupy the top position of the pyramid forever?" Kening said sarcastically.
Corning never considered himself a good person.
What interstellar pirates do is to steal other people's money and spend it themselves. Robbing the rich and giving to the poor only exists in fantasy.
And those powerful people were no better than himself in his eyes.
However, they are the makers of the rules, and they decide what behavior is legal or illegal.
For example: the "private warrant" that appeared in the Age of Discovery.
It's all robbery. It's legal if you have a certificate, and it's illegal if you don't have a certificate.
Don’t think that in the interstellar age, technology has reached this level and everyone can really enjoy the benefits brought by technology.
The real reality is that even the most common auxiliary chips that can be called "standard equipment" are not popular enough for everyone to have them.
For people above a certain level, the existence of the "slave planet" is no secret at all.
The vast majority of people will never leave the planet where they were born.
For some people, even a few, the living environment and conditions may not have changed much compared to hundreds of years ago.
Technology has helped humans overcome many terminal diseases. If you have money, you can easily push your life span to the limit, but there are still people who die because of some "minor illnesses."
So, can the emergence of extraordinary power change this situation
To be honest... it's impossible.
Extraordinary
People in the world of monasticism are still living in "ancient times".
Having said that, Ye Zan is not here to promote things like equality, fairness, and freedom. His real purpose is to improve his own strength.
However, in this process, it can be regarded as giving people in this world one more way to rise.
It is just one way, just like the imperial examination, college entrance examination, public examination, etc., it may not be absolutely fair, but after all, it gives more possibilities.
"The college is ready. What your federal government has to do is to use official channels to announce this matter." Corning mentioned the purpose of the federal government, which is to endorse the Extraordinary College, so as not to Extraordinary information is treated as a scam.
After all, it’s hard for people to believe in extraordinary things. You can’t perform it live for everyone.
Just take this video and show it to others, and others will just think it's another movie with rubbish special effects.
Only the federal government's endorsement can ensure that most people believe and accept the news as quickly as possible.
"This... is not something I can decide. I can only promise to truthfully state everything I saw." General Franklin is both a soldier and a politician, and he also has the habit of leaving enough room for himself when speaking, even in such agitated times. The situation has not been forgotten.
"Of course, like the soldiers here, you are only a witness." Koning said without surprise.
Franklin did not feel embarrassed that he had been underestimated. Instead, he reminded: "Witnesses alone are not enough. Recording everything in front of you may not be able to convince them. You'd better have something that is easier for people to believe."
With the level of technology in this world, it is of course possible to distinguish whether the video is authentic or fake.
Using fake videos to deceive people can only succeed in a place like the monastic world.
However, the key to the matter is not whether the video is true or false, but whether it can impress those people.
To put it bluntly, it means whether they can see the benefits.
If there is enough interest, they can treat the fake as real.
On the contrary, what is true can also be passed off as false.
Corning nodded, glanced at the white hair on the other side's head, and said with a smile: "Well, General Franklin is right. The thing that can convince them has been prepared. I have mentioned it to you before, which is life span."
"Can you see results soon after learning this extraordinary power?" Franklin asked curiously.
"Learning extraordinary algorithms not only requires time, but also requires sufficient qualifications." There was a slight pause at this point, but before Franklin could speak eagerly, Corning had already continued: "But there is another way to quickly make it easier. When a person reaches the threshold of transcendence, to use an ancient Chinese idiom, it is called "Enlightenment."
"…What does it mean?" Franklin was able to search the explanation of this word through the auxiliary chip and the Internet, but he was not sure what the word meant here.
The language of ancient China is broad and profound. There is often one or several stories behind a four-character idiom, which can be used in different ways such as derivatives and distortions.
Therefore, simply looking at the explanation of an idiom often cannot accurately understand its meaning in the current context of use.
"Well... Anyway, there is a way." Ke Ning was not from Guhua either, and he heard the idiom from Ye Zan. He was too lazy to explain it to Franklin, and just said, "You will know if you try it yourself."
After saying that, without waiting for Franklin to respond, Corning stretched out his hand to grab the opponent in the air, and an illusion like a supercomputer appeared in the void.
Other extraordinary systems in extraordinary worlds have methods of directly instilling power to allow targets to step into the extraordinary.
And this dark energy system naturally has similar means.
Copy the basic algorithm, infuse dark energy, and transform body cells...
This set is enough for a person to step into the threshold of dark energy.
Then, if you have the qualifications, you can continue to move up, and it will not affect your promotion breakthroughs in subsequent stages.
If you don't have the qualifications, then entry is the end, and it is impossible to upgrade infinitely through "enlightenment".
Even so, this "enlightenment" doesn't seem to be of much benefit.
But don't forget, for the powerful, the temptation to double their life span is already a big enough temptation.
As for the future, we will slowly think of a solution.
