Chapter 112: Chapter 96: Helping Humans Understand Primordial Energy_2 freewēbnoveℓ.com
Interstellar society, is it really this cruel?
"Part of the reason leading to this cruel order is due to Primordial Energy Technology! The consciousness of all intelligent beings can be extracted into this special and powerful force." Shen Shi gently waved on the tabletop.
A planet projection appeared before everyone, enveloped completely by a dark red atmosphere, resembling Mars.
As the projection continued to zoom in,
everyone clearly saw countless metal structures resembling tree trunks standing on the surface of this unknown planet, all densely hanging with numerous "cylinders." When one of the cylinders was opened, everyone tightened sharply.
Because inside was an alien creature with closed eyes, looking extremely pained!
Except for the blue skin, more slender figure, the features looked so similar to humans.
This, is farming!
If defeated, will all humans face such a fate?
"The development of Primordial Energy Technology allows the consciousness, self, and thought of intelligent life to be deprived and controlled, no longer belonging to themselves. The more intense their emotions, the more Primordial Energy is extracted, yet Primordial Energy Technology prevents you from even collapsing or numbness..."
Then, Shen Shi roughly introduced the whole Mude System and the truth about Primordial Energy Batteries.
Everyone was deeply shocked by this cruel reality.
Including Tao De and others.
Last time, they already knew that intelligent life was considered an important strategic material in the interstellar realm, originally thinking it referred to the workforce or development potential intelligent beings possessed.
But unexpectedly... This so-called strategic material actually referred to Primordial Energy Batteries?
Using the consciousness of life as batteries?
"Now, 256 Primordial Energy Detectors distributed in Outer Space all contain three to four high-quality Primordial Energy Batteries inside." Shen Shi looked around, presenting another cruel reality, "No matter how much you hate it, oppose it, it’s an indispensable force. This is another contradiction. In the interstellar realm, countless civilizations are victims of Primordial Energy Technology but also perpetrators. The weak have no room for mercy. Yet in the vast, mysterious, dangerous cosmos, who can say they are not weak?"
For fear of being harmed, they harm.
In a certain sense, this is also one of the reasons leading the cosmos to be so cruel.
"..."
Everyone remained silent, but their expressions and tightly clenched fists indicated the heaviness in their hearts.
All present were officers.
They understood the cruelty of war; some could even coldly face the sacrifice of soldiers, treating them as simple numbers. However, they now understood that interstellar war brought an even greater cruelty than death.
The whole cosmos was filled with danger!
Can they truly protect their homeland?
"So, let’s return to the topic just now."
Shen Shi didn’t give them much time to adapt to this reality, continuing to speak as if everything he just mentioned was a light reality. Yet this tone even more highlighted the darkness of interstellar society.
"The requirements for soldiers in the Interstellar Forces are many, with Primordial Energy being a rather important part. It not only signifies a strong will but also resistance to Primordial Energy Attacks. Apart from this, Interstellar Warriors need to have strong physiques, which include human enhancement, body modification, external equipment, increasing their survival rate in interstellar wars. Being able to survive in a space environment is only the most basic requirement. Finally, understanding and controlling various advanced technologies is crucial..."
The sound of scribbling once again emerged.
Everyone was extraordinarily earnest.
Even more earnest than before.
This cosmos is so dark; as soldiers, as protectors of civilization, they felt immense pressure, as if there wasn’t a single breath to catch.
"The physique relies on external objects, learning relies on effort, but achievement in Primordial Energy depends on personal talent. After all, every life is different in its self." Shen Shi finally said.
It served as an explanation of why soldiers were selected from the entire civilization.
Also, it answered the question from Commander Lu Jianming.
Following that, everyone raised their hands eagerly.
They were even more eager to understand everything related to interstellar war!
This time, Shen Shi called Villard.
"Respected Mr. Shen." Villard stood up, "Attempting to select all eligible individuals within a civilization is not an easy task. May I ask, sir, what are the specific methods of selection?"
"The procedure is very simple." Shen Shi looked at Villard, "Would you like to demonstrate?"
"..."
Villard regretted somewhat standing up, but still bent slightly and smiled, "I’d be delighted."
Then, his entire body became rigid.
Yes, just as if he had been petrified.
Even the smile on his face remained motionless, appearing oddly eerie.
The others noticed Villard’s condition.
Many were taken aback.
A person sitting next to Villard waved a hand in front of Villard’s eyes.
But still, there was no response.
Not even the instinctual movement of the eyeball!
When did it happen? What exactly occurred?
Is this Primordial Energy Technology?
Everyone’s expressions began to turn serious. Compared to Shen Shi’s description, witnessing it in person undoubtedly offered a more direct perception!
"Villard." Shen Shi spoke unhurriedly, "What is your greatest regret?"
"My greatest regret..." Villard’s expression changed, his gaze filled with sorrow, "is failing to protect my little daughter, Raphael."
Is this... hypnosis?
If hypnosis were this fast and effective, would there be any need to design lie detectors?
Moreover, Villard was from an intelligence background; he had undergone rigorous training!
Some people immediately realized.
From this point forward, wanting to uncover traitors or understand the true thoughts of suspected personnel would be straightforward.
No one can easily hide their thoughts anymore!
Just this alone would likely bring about a series of impacts!
However, compared to others’ amazement, Shen Shi was somewhat surprised by Villard’s answer.
His daughter... Shen Shi looked at Tao De.
"Villard’s little daughter was killed ten years ago, only nine years old. It was after that incident Villard withdrew from the intelligence system." Tao De softly explained, naturally aware of this situation as an old rival to Villard in representative work.
Shen Shi nodded slightly, indicating acknowledgment.
Then, he turned to the others and said:
"Primordial Energy is the exploration and mastery of consciousness. The Worren Civilization was destroyed under an attack from a Primordial Energy Weapon, with every person in the entire race easily controlled, without any resistance. Fortunately, the Worren Fleet didn’t hold such power. If the civilization about to invade us is the Daike Civilization, the result for the Worren Civilization might well be the fate of humanity."
"Is there no way to resist?" Someone couldn’t help but ask.
They had deeply felt the terror of Primordial Energy.
Especially imagining a scenario where humans worldwide transform into Villard’s current state overnight, it made their heads tingle.
This kind of war, this kind of weapon, utterly exceeds their understanding!
It’s like an almighty Divine Spirit launching a dimensional reduction strike!
"Weapons in the Primordial Energy Domain naturally must be resisted with technology from the same domain. Even if it can’t be our strong suit, it absolutely cannot become a weakness." Shen Shi said.
The more one understands this domain, the more one can realize the importance of developing Primordial Energy Technology.
