Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane!

Chapter 293 The Price of Evolution

Takano's appearance was far from being "handsome".

Gritting his teeth at this moment, there is even an indescribable distortion.

"Do you still think I'm worrying unfoundedly? That's because you don't know the latest developments in rune mechanics and automation technology."

He took a deep look at Meng Chao with his single eye, and continued, "Take the latest mining excavator of our biggest competitor 'Tiangong Machinery' as an example. It is equipped with drilling, tunneling, crushing, collecting, fighting... …a behemoth that integrates dozens of functions and can carry hundreds of small unmanned excavators.

"Thanks to the rune machinery and automation technology, this kind of excavator only needs one mechanic at the peak to operate, and it can exert a work efficiency comparable to hundreds of skilled miners.

"Of course, due to the radiation of spar veins and the immaturity of automation technology, such rune machines still cannot 100% replace the status of human miners.

"But if 'Tiangong Machinery' gets the order for the No. 20 underground rail transit line, and then gets more orders in the development of the northern line, they will have more profits to invest in further research and development. One day, there will be more orders." Developed a 'perfect machine' whose working efficiency exceeds thousands of miners, but only needs one extraordinary person to control it.

"At that time, what can the thousands of miners who have been replaced do?"

Meng Chao opened his mouth. Gao Ye's topic was too big. He fell into deep thought and couldn't answer for a while.

"That's what I said, times have changed."

Gao Ye said coldly, "Even if the superiors in the old days owned a mine, they needed thousands of workers to work, and also needed mine guards, engineers, accountants, and experts in various fields to supplement their lack of brain power. , and no matter how loyal these people are to him on the surface, deep down, they must have their own ideas and interests.

"Of course he may enslave and squeeze these miners, and even commit heinous crimes, but from another perspective, he is inseparable from the miners and his mine guard team, engineers and accountants, and his strength comes from these A man, once betrayed by all relatives, he is nothing.

"That's why, when the miners' anger gathers into a storm, he will tremble and have to pay an extra price to suppress or appease the miners, and finally, reach a temporary balance.

"But in the new era we are ushering in, due to psychic infiltration and genetic stimulation, in just half a century, 1% of the transmigrators have accelerated their evolution, and have evolved into a kind of... which is exactly the same as the people on the surface, but is actually completely different. brand new species.

"From then on, those in power no longer need engineers, accountants, guards, and miners.

"He himself, with his superior computing power, is the best engineer and accountant.

"He himself, who can move mountains and seas, is an army alone.

"And using the highly developed Internet of Everything, automation, and rune mechanical technology, he can manipulate thousands of mining robots to replace traditional miners with a single thought.

"Do you understand, in such a new era, the superiors don't need to enslave ordinary people at all, because ordinary people don't even have the value of being enslaved.

"If the superiors are ruthless, they may ignore ordinary people and let ordinary people fend for themselves.

"If the higher-ups still care about the fellowship of fellow earthlings in the past, and are more kind and just, they may pay a little price to support ordinary people.

"In fact, today's Dragon City is like this.

"The vast majority of extraordinary people practice and fight frantically, constantly enrich and improve themselves, and climb to the peak of wisdom, physical fitness, wealth and technology.

"More and more ordinary people don't have the opportunity to show their strengths, and they don't have the ability to keep up with the extraordinary. They don't curl up at home all day, relying on the synthetic food made of earthworm meat distributed by the survival committee to survive. Sustaining; it is to engage in those simple and boring jobs that will be replaced by rune machines at any time-mining, developing underground space, and repairing cities destroyed by monsters.

"But as the wisdom and strength of the extraordinary continue to improve, and the rune machinery and automation technology are also becoming more mature, such days will eventually come to an end.

"When more and more extraordinary people have cultivated to the 'heavenly realm' and 'divine realm', and Dragon City's network, super brain and rune mechanical technology are developed enough to project their powerful and unparalleled brain waves, When operating thousands of drones or thinking about machines at the same time, what is the meaning of existence for ordinary people in this civilization?"

"this……"

Meng Chao finally thought of something, "At least, ordinary people can consume it. If there are no ordinary people, who should sell the things produced by extraordinary people relying on fully automated rune machinery?"

"No one will sell."

Takano Michi, "The high-ranking people in the old era chased profits and had the original impulse to expand the market, but for the high-ranking people in the new era, there may be one thing more attractive than profits, and that is cultivation.

"The propaganda slogan of the Survival Committee is that ordinary people and superhumans are in the relationship of fish and water, and no one can do without the other. A superhuman without the support of ordinary people is water without a source and a tree without roots—for middle and low-level For a transcendent, maybe so.

"But is this really the case for those who are strong in the God Realm, or even the most powerful people who have surpassed the God Realm?

"Let's do an interesting thought experiment, assuming that there is a supreme being who transcends the realm of gods, his brain waves are so strong that they can cover the entire planet, and this planet is full of infinite creatures under his control. Man-machines and automatic rune machines, what value and meaning do ordinary people have to him?"

Meng Chao frowned, stared at Gao Ye and said, "Director Gao, I'm beginning to feel that you're a bit extreme."

"Maybe I'm extreme, or maybe you don't dare to face such a cruel future."

Takano said, "But whether you are willing to face it or not, the pace of evolution has never stopped, and the speed is getting faster and faster.

"You are also a transcendent, and you should have experienced the unparalleled pleasure of spiritual energy flowing through your nerves and blood vessels-this pleasure is far more exciting than wealth proliferation and capital expansion, and it is enough to drive many transcendents to continue to practice, climbing one after another. a peak.

"In the future, there will be more and more heavenly powerhouses, godly powerhouses, and even superpowers beyond the godly realm, and the gap between them and ordinary people will definitely become wider and wider.

"Similarly, as long as rune machinery and automation technology continue to develop like they are now, these cold machines will become smarter, more flexible, and more powerful. One day, they will replace 99% of ordinary machines. people.

"We can't stop superhumans from cultivating, and even we ourselves have to keep cultivating.

"But we can stop the development of rune machinery and automation technology—expose the evil conspiracy of 'Tiangong Machinery', stop them and more rune machinery companies, get more orders, and make biochemical modulation technology become a dragon city This is the only way forward.

"Fortunately, when the 'spiritual creation' was about to suffer injustice, you, Meng Chao, stepped forward and helped us find the key evidence. What you did not only save the 'spiritual creation', It is more likely to change the future of the entire civilization."

Takano said quite seriously.

"I didn't think so much, I just wanted to find out the truth."

Meng Chao thought for a while and said, "Moreover, Senior Director, aren't biochemical beasts such as giant sandworms created with biochemical modulation technology still a kind of flesh and blood machinery with a high degree of automation?

"According to what you said, rune machines may make ordinary people lose their place in civilization, isn't it the same for flesh and blood machines?

"If there is a mine that is fully mined with biochemical beasts, wouldn't the original miners still lose their jobs?"

Gao Ye was stunned for a long time.

Immediately he smiled wryly.

"That's right, classmate Meng Chao, you are very smart, and in just a few minutes, you have solved the key point that I have been thinking about for many years.

"Perhaps, they are all the same. Rune mechanical technology and biochemical modulation technology are the same. We live in an era of rapid evolution, and the so-called 'evolution' means that 99% of individuals must be eliminated in order to send 1% of the lucky ones to the world. Higher Throne's.

"Well, it's very interesting to chat with you. I hope to have the opportunity to communicate more, but now I have to send the test report to the relevant department."

Takano put on a posture to see off the guests.

Meng Chao's heart moved, and he said, "You want to hand over the test report to the authorities?"

"Of course, this key evidence is enough to prove the conspiracy of the 'Tiangong Machinery'. If it is sent out one second earlier, the real culprit can be caught one second earlier."

Gao Ye said calmly, "Besides, since such a big incident happened, the superiors have already implemented surveillance on the 'spiritual creation creature', but they are loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and no one has been sent to guard the place with live ammunition on the surface.

"I guess, the people above should already know about this, after all, many people have seen such a large super giant sandworm dug out.

"I can't think of any need to hide it. If I finish this matter one day earlier, I will be able to start a new research without being disturbed one day earlier."

"so……"

Meng Chao pondered for a moment, and said, "Director Gao, you said 'the person above', is it a police officer named 'Shen Yupeng'?"

Gao Ye was slightly taken aback: "Do you know each other? However, he didn't say what kind of police officer he is, only that he came from the Chaofan Tower."

"Understood."

Meng Chao nodded, "The last question, Senior Director, this is purely my curiosity, you can just talk about it—in your mind, do you have any doubts about the laboratory that modulates the mutant rabies virus?"

"this……"

Takano shook his head slowly, "How can I say this? Rabies virus is not so difficult to prepare. Many biochemical laboratories have technical capabilities in this area, such as the laboratories of many departments of our Agricultural University, and the monster arena. lab, blah blah, I can't tell."
