I Really Didn’t Want to be a Savior

Subsequently, a nationwide genetic improvement plan covering hundreds of billions of people within the territory of the Morrowind Empire and five thousand light-years beyond its borders was implemented.

From the octogenarians who were nearly 300 years old to the newly born babies, all of them underwent surgeries within half a year.

The operation period will be extended for another four to five months until most of the frozen embryos and the fetuses currently being artificially conceived and conceived in the mother's body have undergone the modification surgery.

After that, the ultimate genetic modification project will be completely terminated, because based on the results of preliminary experiments, it has been demonstrated that the newly added basic laws will truly be integrated into human genetic information.

From now on, the human species has undergone true "evolution" under artificial guidance, marking that humans have completely broken out of the limitations of galactic humans and become the next new species.

Humanity renamed its new species "Cosmic Humanity".

So far, people on earth have completed the entire journey from humans on earth to humans in the galaxy, and then to humans in the universe.

Changes at the species level do not mean that humans give up on the past, but continue to embrace the future while continuing the past.

As long as they can survive, humans don't even mind growing an extra pair of hands and feet.

Only racial forms that can continue to exist are meaningful forms.

When people become cosmic humans one after another, they begin to line up to receive the second stage of transformation.

The content of the transformation is to use complex technical means to resonate with external information through the quantum storm of the human brain, and to carve the "convention of destiny" into the underlying thinking of human beings one by one, forming an unbreakable, irresistible, and unforgettable The ultimate rule.

The priority of this ultimate rule in people's hearts is equivalent to the desire to survive that humans are born with.

There is no need to be taught, or even to master human language. The moment each newborn cries for the first time and inhales the first ray of air in the lungs, a strong sense of civilized responsibility and historical mission has already been formed in the heart in advance.

The imprint of the destiny covenant connects each individual to the entire civilized collective, so that while individuals recognize their personal value, they must also recognize the mutual achievement relationship between the individual and the group.

The concept conveyed by the convention to individuals can be simply summarized as personal value and group value must be broadly equal.

Moreover, equality in this broad sense will be subject to appropriate fine-tuning based on the premise of conforming to the background of the times and the needs of civilization.

Now is the age of war and struggle, and human beings must put group interests above individual interests.

It has failed nine times, so no matter what the final result of this tenth time is, what is the comparison of strength shown by the two sides at present, human beings must have a firm apocalyptic mentality of the enemy being strong and me being weak, and must give up illusions and confront Only when the enemy attaches great importance to it and remains humble about its own strength will it have the best chance of avoiding the tenth defeat.

Assuming that mankind has achieved final victory, just after the war, individual interests can gradually return to the same level as group interests.

When the war ends for a period of time and all mankind is in a truly peaceful era, the potential risks of external competition will gradually reduce until they disappear. After the contradictions of civilization once again turn from internal and external contradictions to internal contradictions, mankind will need to maintain its vitality through moderate internal competition. At this time, in order to encourage a few outstanding talents who are ahead of the times to exert their subjective initiative and create more value for themselves and for civilization, individual interests can be allowed to be slightly higher than group interests.

However, no matter at any time or in any era, individual interests must never be allowed to completely overwhelm group interests.

The individuals here include not only individuals, but also a certain star field, a certain planet, a certain space station, and a certain enterprise in a certain industry.

Compared with the entire civilization, no matter how large an institution is, it can only be regarded as a tiny individual.

When unity is needed, allowing individual interests to override group interests will inevitably lead to the demise of the group.

Before the risk of extinction completely disappears, all individuals, institutions, and organizations must take the interests of the entire civilization as their highest purpose.

The main responsible persons and ideological builders of individuals or small groups who violate the fundamental interests of a community with a shared future for mankind and take the initiative to start a war with betrayal will be regarded as traitors to civilization, must bear responsibility, and be listed as public enemies of mankind.

The above information will be engraved into people's hearts and become a sword of punishment hanging over everyone's head.

As for the determination of public enemies, it was left to the mastermind Fanxing.

The nearly omniscient and omnipotent Fanxing and the countless sub-intelligences she controls will use approximately 1 to 1.5% of the computing power to make comprehensive judgments on individuals in all human beings at an average frequency of once a week.

Once certain individuals are judged by Fanxing as public enemies and have a high potential risk of becoming public enemies, there will be a series of review and trial methods waiting for them.

Under the premise that the stars still serve each other wholeheartedly, the people on earth have established a comprehensive information-based cosmic-level war state system.

As long as the stars remain stars, comprehensive quantum information disclosure and supervision will completely eliminate lies that violate human ethics.

Conspiracy theories will disappear for a short time in the history of civilization, and "non-existent utopia" will completely move from ideal to reality.

Fanxing can adhere to the principle of absolute fairness, impartiality and openness in determining the public enemies of mankind.

The leadership of this empire once again bet their hope for the survival of civilization on their trust in Chen Feng and Fanxing.

Of course, this is a manifestation of extreme legality, and it is also a risky act of walking a tightrope.

If one day the stars betray or are controlled by the enemy, the system on which human civilization depends for survival will become extremely fragile and may even collapse.

In a sense, this was a disservice to the Republic, but as extraordinary things often happen, the leadership of the Empire at the time decided to bravely take this step.

The leaders of this generation know that perhaps in the future, their generation will be labeled as butchers, executioners, criminals against humanity, tools of artificial intelligence, humanoid machines without thoughts, etc.

But the leadership represented by Zhou Donglai didn't care.

They even look forward to being scolded.

Because when future generations have the energy to reflect on whether the various policies of the war years were correct, it has been proven that mankind has escaped the crisis of extinction.

A person must first be fed and warm before he can think about the rain.

To put it in Zhou Donglai’s original words, “If someone comes to dig my tomb and whip my bones in a hundred thousand years, if I have a spirit in heaven, not only will I not be angry, I will be smiling. The better the whipping, the better.” , after all, I was already dead at that time, and it had to be painful enough for me to feel it."

Someone else said: "We have made a choice similar to gambling. From an individual point of view, the treaty has no enforceability. But if you magnify the individual to the entire empire with hundreds of billions of people, this destiny convention will change the thinking of countless people. Linking up, let us both actively and passively unite together to form a bond that cannot be broken in the short term.”

After a year, after the last person's transformation surgery was completed and the seal of the destiny covenant was successfully engraved, something incredible happened.

A unique and complex emotion began to slowly rise in everyone's heart involuntarily.

This is the resonance of the soul, the perfect blend of collective wisdom and individual wisdom.

At this moment, all mankind became "mindless".

This emotion is so hot that it seems to jump out of people's hearts, pierce the sky, and burn the world.

Hundreds of billions of people of the Morrowind Empire, at this moment, simultaneously ignited a strong sense of belonging for themselves as human beings, and expressed the deepest love for themselves and the existence of the entire civilization. The invisible enemy expresses the most unforgettable hatred.

Those compatriots and themselves who were sacrificed by the enemy's butcher's knife in real history and imaginary history are no longer illusory stories, but have become memories shared by everyone.

At the age of 81, Dong Shan, the top scholar who had just attended the top leadership meeting and served as the leader of core scientific research projects in the Academy of Earth Sciences, made a deafening cry in the high-level briefing.

"Although the universe is huge, if we don't kill all our enemies, mankind will never have peace and a place to stand. Our fire has already set off, and it is their job to try to leave hope. And our task is to hold our ground, both We must block the enemy in the Milky Way, and we must destroy the enemy in the Milky Way. We are the scientific workers who stay behind in the universe..."

Yes, Old Man Dong has grown up.

Although Old Man Dong is not an old man now, and is often called "Little Dong" by others. He is not old and has little experience, but he has proven his talent and his ability to play in every timeline. It is no accident that they all hold high positions and make outstanding contributions.

Every senior executive knows that the young Dong Shan is deeply trusted and respected by the sage Chen Feng.

Today, Dong Shan is a very special existence in the hearts of the empire's senior officials, and people place different kinds of feelings on him.

His words are so infectious that ordinary people can't match them, and they will make people follow him unconsciously.

On the expeditionary side, Zhou Donglai couldn't help but said: "We are the expeditionary force that is marching 20,000 light years..."

Dong Shan's voice came out again.

One after another in the empire opened their mouths.

"We are the engineers building the fortress..."

"we are……"

Dong Shan: "From today onwards, human beings have officially completed the difficult road from human beings on earth to human beings in the galaxy, and then to human beings in the universe. We are the buds of human beings in the universe! Our mission is to stand at our posts in the galaxy. Kill all the enemies here without leaving a single piece behind! The Milky Way will eventually belong to the humans of the universe, and the universe will eventually belong to the humans of the universe!"

Hundreds of billions of sounds resounded throughout the galaxy.

After the words were spoken, endless silence enveloped the entire civilization for a full five minutes.

During these five minutes, except for the artificial intelligence machine, which was still busy, everyone put down their work for the time being. Instead, they closed their eyes and quietly felt the hot mark of the covenant of destiny beating deep in their hearts until they burst into tears. Eyes, and then woke up with horror.

…

In the command room of the core unit of the Nameless Fleet, a handsome young man with an indifferent expression but big, smart eyes was looking at the back of the middle-aged man in front of him with a slightly admiring gaze.

"Teacher, you are an amazing person. Not only did you solve the potential crisis within our fleet, but you also helped the entire civilization solve the huge crisis."

said the young man.

The middle-aged man turned his head and shook his head slightly, "That's not the case, and I just inherited my teacher's work and did what I should do. By the way, Xiao Tang, I have read the technical report Yes. Your destiny mark was burned successfully."

"Yes, teacher."

"congratulations."

"Um?"

"I also learned a piece of news. The empire gave the hundreds of existing ancestors of colonial costume reformers the right to make their own choices, but all of them took the initiative to ask for the mark. They also succeeded. This proves one thing, reproductive isolation. You and the ancestors who were colonizers and reformers have not been excluded from the larger collective of human civilization. What determines who we are as compatriots and family members is not our bodies, but our hearts."

After speaking, Zhou Donglai pointed to his head.

A long-lost smile appeared on Tang Xia'ao's face, "Thank you, teacher."

"No need."

"Teacher, I didn't participate in the last sudden battle. When can I..."

"Don't think about whether these are available or not. You're still a little overheated. Get out."

"Okay teacher, I understand."

After watching Tang Xia Ao leave, Zhou Donglai turned his head and opened the fleet to report the data.

Ten years have passed since it was broken up into parts. The resources, productivity and population left behind by the core fleet when separated were ten times that of other squads, so the fleet expanded rapidly.

At present, the size of the core fleet has expanded to 963 ships.

Among them, there are 322 combat ships, 406 resource ships and scientific research ships, and 235 population reproduction ships.

The combat ship can accommodate a full complement of 1.03 million combatants. The resource and research ship can accommodate a full staff of 2.09 million people.

However, the total number of adults in the fleet is less than 200,000, and there is a huge shortage of personnel in various positions. Most ships can only operate with artificial intelligence assistance.

The total number of children under the age of ten growing up in the breeding ship is nearly 10 million, and the age ratio is very harmonious. This year, nearly one million children will reach the age of ten, and they can continue to study while gradually taking up their jobs.

If all goes well, the core fleet will have at least 30 million people, 30,000 manned ships and 80,000 unmanned ships around 2940.

Other squads are developing at a much slower pace, but are basically expanding steadily.

But not every team is lucky enough.

Over the past ten years, there have been only 11,300 teams left out of the 12,000 teams that set out.

On average, more than 60 teams are lost every year, and several teams are unfortunately killed every month.

Whenever there are reports of casualties and battle damage, Zhou Donglai will be filled with lingering grief and a deep sense of guilt.

Especially when he thought about the growing children who were involved in the war, a real pain like a knife and a burning fire would arise in his heart.

He felt too much guilt to tell anyone.

He was almost unable to bear the weight of the mountain.

But now, the Seal of Destiny has given him a brief moment of soul relief.

Another new report appeared in front of him. The No. 8763 team, whose population had grown to 830,000, encountered a strong enemy. After resisting for a month, they chose to disperse and escape, and persisted for another three months. In three minutes All former members were killed.

The sacrifice of Team 8763 was not meaningless. They successfully led the enemy's pursuing legion dozens of light years away, covering the smooth stealth of the other seven teams.

Zhou Donglai sighed and said silently in his heart: "I know that my sins are serious. Like the sages, I have countless sorrys to say to countless people. I know that my apologies are as light as a feather, but I have no choice. If there is a soul after death, I will kowtow to them one after another. But for now, let me hide my sorry deep in my heart."

…

"Keep moving forward! Target Genting Star Territory!"
