Non-human Gene Complex

Lan Mu's answer made them feel a little shuddering, but they still didn't understand.

Torbion asked in surprise: "For fun? What does this mean?"

Lan Mu calmly said: "It literally means that the gap between civilizations is more than two levels. Do you think it is meaningful to plunder technology? As long as they want, they can directly read your undefended network and obtain all technologies."

"As for resources, besides life, do you think the earth has any resources that those savage planets in the universe don't have? There are trillions of planets in the Milky Way, invading you and plundering resources that are useless to them?"

"The last thing is life. This thing is unique to living planets, but it is not enough to be a reason for war. At least the life races on your planet do not have this attraction. Do you think there are any otherworldly creatures on the earth? Any kind of animal and plant on the earth is not surprising. Even low-level civilizations like yours can carry out basic biochemical technologies such as genetic modification and cloning, and high-level civilizations need to wage wars for some low-entropy bodies?"

Everyone swallowed their saliva, listened intently, and thought about it carefully, the war was nothing more than some kind of profit, and resource technology became unattractive when the difference in civilization level was too large, so why did the aliens invade them?

fun...

Thinking of the fun that Lan Mu said, they couldn't accept it. Was this alien incident where they went to war and even panicked the whole people, was it just for fun?

Lan Mu continued: "It's just for fun, this is a game of advanced civilization."

Tobion said excitedly: "How could this be? How could this be a game? Could it be that they have been playing with us?"

Lan Mu nodded and said: "It's just playing. Higher civilizations are using this method to gain fun and perform a big aggression drama. Maybe their civilization is observing your every move, just like a TV station or webcast program, watching your behaviors such as panic, surprise, distress, and hard work. By observing these behaviors and guiding some behaviors, we can increase the effect of the program and gain pleasure from your reactions."

The people present heard the truth that seemed to be an understatement at first, but their hands and feet were cold when they heard it, and their minds were confused.

Their hard work and struggle to resist, in fact, in the eyes of the enemy, is actually just the fun of the show that the enemy wants, a game to play.

Come to think of it, isn't that how the sapphire detector behaves? If it is really for aggression, even if it does not wreak havoc around the world and destroy cities, then all scientific research institutions should be wiped out, not just human weapons.

Combined with what Lan Mu said, they realized that this is actually just creating panic, just playing...

Tobion and the others were all dumbfounded, their expressions in a trance. They realized: from the appearance of alien probes, to the response of human beings and the establishment of the Global Defense Council, to communication with various efforts of aliens, and to the subsequent battles in the world, the results of all these are actually not important.

The enemy just wants to see their reaction, just like watching a big movie, a reality show...

Even if they succeed in defeating the sapphire detector, that's pointless, people don't care. When they cheered for the victory, the enemy might also clap their hands and cheer: "Awesome! Interesting, they defeated XX. I bet 50 cents, they will..."

The brain supplements of Tobion and others are so desperate.

Lan Mu anticipated their reaction, but what he did and said was not aimless.

Part of what he said is non-existent, defined purely for the existence of the Lanbai Society, but part of it is actually a phenomenon that actually exists in the universe.

This kind of thinking comes from the reminder of the Amon civilization. After communicating with Yun Suiyueshu, Lan Mu thought a lot, and finally figured out several situations between civilizations in the universe.

One of them is like the Amon civilization. If it is in the primitive period, then just play for fun. If it has entered the civilization stage and is relatively mature, then forget it. When you encounter it, you will silently take something and leave without a trace.

Isn't this just for fun? There is no benefit for them to rule a group of primitive people. The only benefit is to satisfy a desire of intelligent creatures for their own pleasure.

This kind of situation may be common in intelligent races, especially when the society has advanced to a very high level, and ordinary things cannot satisfy them, this civilization will pursue a new sense of self-satisfaction.

It's like rich people who have everything, money? right? color? No more, they want more fun.

For the pleasure they trample over everything and despise lower civilizations, even inadvertently.

Maybe Lan Mu thought too much, but he played with low-level civilizations for the sake of self-satisfaction, which was 'told' to him by the Amon civilization.

At the beginning, Lan Mu asked the Amon civilization: "If they came to the earth after eight thousand years, when the earth was about to enter the space age, what would they do?"

The answer of Amon civilization is to extract something silently, and then leave quietly.

And before Yun Suiyueshu answered in this way, he said: We are a very kind civilization.

This sentence is actually a hint.

At first, Lan Mu didn't feel much about this sentence, but after a period of precipitation, Lan Mu thought about it repeatedly, and finally realized the unfinished meaning.

A kind and friendly existence like the Amon civilization will play god games among a group of primitive people for fun, so what about the unkind and friendly civilization? Will it go too far? Or even simply conquer?

But the book of Yun Suiyue has already said before that it is not beneficial for higher civilizations to invade lower civilizations, and any resources and technologies that they rob are of no benefit to them.

So, under what circumstances would one attack or even destroy others without any benefit or reason?

Only abnormal, murderous, crazy.

They don't need any reason, and they don't want to get anything from you, they just enjoy the process and satisfy their hearts.

And this is exactly the kind of "noble civilization" in the universe that bullies weak civilizations to satisfy itself!

They probably do exist, and there are even a lot of them. Even the earth has people who like to bully others, or use a group of insects to create a war simulation, watching the insects fight each other is quite interesting, and then take pictures and post them on the Internet to continue to be satisfied.

There are also some perverted rich people who specially make all kinds of weird crime games for fun.

This is something out of the ordinary.

Then Lan Mu has reason to guess that in the games of higher civilizations, it is also a phenomenon that they will be recorded after playing and spread among civilizations of the same level to continue to gain greater vanity.

As long as the gap between civilizations is large enough... In the real universe, there may not be any great god-level civilizations to formulate some order to create such things as cosmic public morality.

This phenomenon occurs on Earth in two ways. One is that the differences between different species and races smooth out obstacles.

The other is that between different classes, the huge class gap forms a gap, allowing the superior to dominate the inferior at will like a higher creature. Of course, there is no racial difference between such classes on earth, so it is a rare case. Even if it appears, it is just taking advantage of legal loopholes, taking advantage of the weakness of human nature, or powerful capital.

But what about the cosmic society? There are differences in race and class, coupled with the vast macro-distance from each other, and the power of absolute crushing.

The cosmic class was born, and this class must be divided according to the degree of civilization.

A great man on earth once said: class is everywhere.

In the fantasy of many civilizations in the vast universe, it can be considered as a dark forest, and each civilization is both a hunter and a prey.

It can also be regarded as a paradise full of order, where everyone communicates with each other, communicates friendly, establishes diplomatic relations, and explores the truth of the universe together.

Both are too extreme, naturally there is a third!

It is precisely one of the most important key points in cosmic sociology that cannot be ignored, that is class.

Assuming that there are many civilizations on a vast cosmic scale, after adding the concept of class, what characteristics may the formed society have?

First of all, there are many civilizations in the universe, and there are differences in culture and technology. Because of the length of development time, higher civilizations can even crush lower civilizations.

Such a huge degree of civilization forms a class gap. The same class has the possibility of communication, and there is also the possibility of war, because they are in a competitive relationship and each has what the other needs.

However, between different classes, the lower class naturally hopes to communicate with the higher class, but the higher class will most likely dismiss it. Races are different, why should the high class talk to you on an equal footing? Unless the low class is too low, low enough to arouse sympathy... low enough to make the high class feel caring.

In other words, when an advanced civilization encounters a group of primitive people, if they don't like this group of primitive people, they may kill them with a cannonball, as if they were killing a group of noisy flies.

If you like this group of primitive people, then maybe treat them kindly, as raising a Teddy who will please the owner.

However, there are exceptions to everything. If a low-level civilization happens to exist near a certain high-level civilization, there is a high probability that the low-level civilization will be directly 'demolished' for certain construction projects or the layout of the defense system.

Like a termite nest blocking a critical part of a highway construction project, a bottle of insecticide costs far more than a detour.

In general, the oppression between different classes is magnified many times on the macro scale of the entire universe, just like the difference between gods and ants, because there are huge differences in race and cultural forms, and the cold indifference can be imagined.

People on Earth should be fortunate that the Amon civilization that came here 8,000 years ago was also a humanoid carbon-based creature, otherwise human beings would probably be wiped out because they were too ugly.

At the same time, we should also be thankful for the uniqueness of the earth, which has the Pyramid of Doom, otherwise human beings may also become caged birds.

Other weak civilizations are not so lucky. Higher civilizations can create a "caged bird" situation by locking the foundation of the opponent's technological explosion.

If you want to get rid of the class oppression of the 'bird in a cage', you have to try your best to please and endure, and wait for the opportunity until you break free from the cage, or perish because you are tired of being played.

It is also because the chance of a counterattack is extremely slim, so if there is no great god-level civilized orderer similar to Lan Mu's description, one can imagine how hopeless the oppressed civilization of "proletariat" would be.

To not perish for dignity is to perish dignity itself.
