Hidden Yao Era

Hearing Banderlo's words, Borodin glanced at Lehman, the two looked at each other, Lehman nodded slightly and then said to Banderlo: "Come to our office to talk, Representative Banderlo." The two men led Bandero into his office.

Entering the office, as soon as Deputy Speaker Lehman closed the door, Bandero asked, "Is your 'carpet project' going to wipe out all the Pluto rovers?"

Speaker Borodin said solemnly: "We will destroy all forces that endanger the solar system, including the armies of the Rovers. "

Bandero sneered, "Hehe, what if the forces that endanger the solar system are outside the Earth-Proxima Centauri economic circle?".

Deputy Speaker Lehman did not hesitate for a moment, and replied directly: "Then we will also destroy them without hesitation, no matter where they are in the universe." "

Bandero reluctantly brushed his hair and said, "It seems that the arbitration committee is very ambitious." "

"This is not an ambition, it is a determination to defend the peace of the entire universe. What's more, if our geosphere is threatened, trade with you will also be affected, isn't it?" said Deputy Speaker Lehman.

"Well, naturally. But our top management has been worried lately, and they are worried that the implementation of the 'carpet plan' will affect our trade. "

Deputy Speaker Lehman pretended to be puzzled and asked, "How is it affected?" Although the stargates of the solar system have not yet been fully restored, the shipping lanes of some major galaxies can still be guaranteed. As long as the Pluto rovers don't dare to destroy the stargates, our trade won't be affected too much. "

"That's what we're worried about, if we push the Pluto rovers too hard, won't they jump over the wall?"

Speaker Borodin replied: "Their main fleet is in a distant alien system, and if they want to mobilize a large force to destroy the stargate, we will definitely get the news in advance." You don't have to worry about that. "

"Oh, did you get the news in advance of this Martian battle?"

"This is ......," Deputy Speaker Lehman hurriedly interrupted Speaker Borodin, "they have adopted a new stealth technology this time, and we have been caught off guard by mistakes." And this technology comes from your Antonios company, if you are willing to provide us with technical details, we will naturally be able to ensure the safety of the stargate. "

"That's fine, it's not hard to crack these unenhanced stealth technologies. "

"yes, we're not sure how far you've been infiltrated, maybe their stealth technology has been enhanced. Do you need us to show you some more detailed operational reports?".

"No, the rover only got some very basic stealth technology. We are very sure of that. "

"Where do you get the evidence to be so sure of this?"

"We have a lot of evidence, and our intelligence services have some other evidence. After Bandero finished speaking, he took out a box and handed it to Deputy Speaker Lehman.

"You two might as well open it and take a look. "

Deputy Speaker Lehman opened the box, his eyes widened, and he muttered in place: "This is ......" In the box was an emerald breastplate, with a bullet hole on the right side, and a few drops of blood on it. Vice Speaker Lehman held his chest badge in his hand, his arm trembling slightly.

"Before he died, the owner of this badge asked me to bring this precious 'work of art' to the two of you. He had been so reckless in the first two days of the meeting that he felt guilty and had been in constant fear. Yesterday, I fell from a height and unfortunately died. "

Deputy Speaker Lehman put away his chest badge, his cheeks trembling slightly, and he stared at Bandero with sharp eyes.

"Please mourn, I have taken a step beforehand. With that, Bandero walked straight out of the office.

"This guy ......," Deputy Speaker Lehman slammed the box to the ground. Speaker Borodin patted Lehman and said, "I'm sorry about Tony's matter. I'm going to send someone to protect your family's branch in the alien system. "

"Well, I know, but we don't know to what extent their intelligence network has penetrated. Listening to Tony's tone a few days ago, not only Antonios Company, but Norma Company may also know some inside information. I was mentally prepared for Tony's death, but it was hard for us to accept that they were demonstrating against us with his relics. "

"Tony's death is valuable, he gives us a hint of our situation. Those companies will not be indifferent to our plans. But that's just right, they might use the Eagle Wings to provoke a conflict with us. In this way, we can also use the lesson of the Eagle Wings to suppress the Norma Group. "

"Heh, are you so confident? Do you think you can beat the Eagle Wings with our current strength?"

"We don't have to end up, we can use the 'Heart' of the Wanderers and the Odinicus Legion. "

"Well, that's a good idea, we'll play when they can't hold up. "

"It's better to make a big deal out of it, and when enough forces are involved, we'll make a final decision. This will demonstrate our authority. "

"That's right, we need a big battle to wipe out enough fleets to make the entire universe fear us!"

On the other side, Casto and Sonia walk out of the dining room, where they say goodbye to the Griffith couple and go to an urban garden. The flowers and plants here are carefully cultivated, with young green leaves holding lilac flowers, and bees and butterflies flying through the flowers from time to time.

Sonia suddenly asks Casto, "Do you know how many insects there are on Mars?"

"There are less than 100 species, and I remember that Mars strictly restricts insect reproduction, and the cleaning robots monitor the insect population at all times, and kill new pests that are not good for humans when they are found. "

"Haha, it's really the same in the book. I really didn't expect that human beings could distort nature like this for their own selfish desires. "

"What's wrong with that? If there are cockroaches in the city, it's likely to spread serious infectious diseases. It's the same with flies and mosquitoes. "

"Have you ever thought that these diseases are sometimes testing human beings, allowing them to endure the torture of bacteria and viruses and obtain gene expression to fight various diseases? As species become fewer and the human environment becomes more and more pure, humans may become more vulnerable. Human societies that seem to be prosperous are likely to end up being fragile because of the so-called simple yearning for comfort. "

"Is it wrong for human beings to pursue comfort?"

"That's right, but it's still too extreme to transform everything for comfort, and alienating the complex world into a simple closed environment for your own comfort will only hurt you in the end. After all, it is impossible for humans to create a completely unbreakable environment. When the comfortable environment is broken, it is very likely that humans who are completely accustomed to the comfortable environment will not survive. "

"Haha, dear, I feel like you don't just want to talk about the environment. "

"Well, yes, I mean to say that you don't have to simply accept Western ideas or Eastern ideas. Don't completely deny the value of certain ideas because you reject them, accept the complexity of the world and the complexity of culture, and your spirit will gain more understanding. "

"You're right, if I hadn't discussed this with you today, my rejection of Eastern culture would have been a lifelong part of me. In my reading of historical materials and academic works in the past few months, I believe that Western culture is a representation of thousands of years of human development, while Eastern culture is the undercurrent of human development. On the surface, the theoretical system of human science and art is constructed by Western culture. However, specific power struggles and emotional states are often influenced by Eastern culture. Even Eastern culture is often able to suppress Western culture in this regard. Although Western culture is liberated by nature, it is easy to deviate. Having lost the norms of religion, this release of nature can easily spiral out of control. And Oriental culture is often directly influencing people's secular life, and this secularity makes it move in a direction that does not exceed the rules. "

"Hahaha, it seems that you've been reading a lot lately, and you haven't told me about some of them. "

"Hehe, because there's something very dark in there, and I don't want to share too much with you. "

"On the political struggle of humanity?".

"Yes, I find that the study of political struggle in Eastern culture is too profound, and this kind of research can make people unpredictable, and every move can make the opponent scratch their heads, and at the same time protect themselves. This kind of political 'witchcraft' greatly increases the complexity of political struggles, and it makes the power struggles in human society more complicated, making trust between people completely unreliable. "

"Complexity may be the essence of this world, and I seek beauty and purity, but I also know that it is unlikely that all human beings will become like me. Diversity encompasses both beauty and sin and ugliness. Even if human beings are freed from the control of capital, it does not mean that human beings can completely get rid of their inferior roots. To some extent, this is an effective means of self-preservation. Don't internalize these tools as your own value orientation, but use them as a tool. "

Casto smiled helplessly and said, "Hahaha, maybe I'm too fragile, I always feel that I was too well protected by my family before." When I find out that these means are the undercurrent in which the world works, I unconsciously think that it should be internalized as human values, especially for politicians. "

"No, if the values are changed, such a person is called a politician at best. They are just passers-by of human history, temporarily holding power and playing with people's hearts, leaving not many traces and contributions. And true politicians need to understand the direction of humanity and their own pursuits. "

"Does such a person really exist?"

"I think there exist, it's just that they generally come at a great cost. After all, if they want to change the world, they will inevitably move the core interests of many people, and their enemies will fight for their lives. Knowing this, you ...... Do you want to change the world?".

"I still have to change the world, no matter how difficult it takes. As you said, even if we run to the end of the world, we will not be able to fully fulfill our wishes. Only by facing this world and doing our best to change it can we fight for enough living space. It is useless to escape, and giving up the struggle can only make your living space smaller and smaller. "

After Casto finished speaking, Sonia took his hand and said, "Okay, I will create a new world with you." Looking at Sonya's blue eyes, Casto seemed to see the bright stars of the infinite beauty of the future.
