Star Survival: The Rise of the Fourth Scourge

"I already have some ideas about the planning of the new government structure. Everyone, I believe that the reasons for the decline of the old empire are clear to everyone. In the late period of the empire, the administrative capacity of Terra has been seriously corrupted and bloated, which is often a problem. , even a small problem will take decades to be resolved. Sometimes the enemy attacks at the doorstep, and information about the enemy is still relayed among various departments. Therefore, in order for the administrative system of the new empire to operate efficiently, I propose , implement decentralization under centralization.”

Decentralization under centralization?

At Charles Caron's words, the six of them looked at each other.

Ralph asked: "Lord Charles, why decentralization under centralization?"

The only expression on his face was solemn, and Charles replied: "Everyone here is an ordinary person. Even if we undergo longevity surgery again and again, we will die one day, but the "King" is different. The "King" is a living saint. , he will always exist, which makes it possible for the empire to last forever. As long as the "king" is still there, the empire will not collapse. Therefore, "king" represents centralization, and all the rights of the empire belong to " "King", while decentralization is to establish an aristocratic system, and new territories will be given to people with titles for management. This is autonomy under decentralization."

Everyone understood what Charles meant.

If there is a piece of land, the owner of this land is the "king", and the king has all rights.

But the king can divide this land into countless small lands, and then give management rights to others to rule for the "king".

In this way, administrative efficiency will be ensured.

But the nobles only had administrative power.

With an order from the "king", the allocated land can be taken back and given to others to manage.

"What if the king is not here?"

Navigator Ambassador Rowell Iron suddenly said something.

Regarding Rowell's words, Charles said calmly: "If the "King" is not here, no matter what political system, it will follow the old path of the empire in the old era. This is human nature. Maybe the empire can be glorious for ten thousand years, but it will eventually embark on the road of destruction. old road."

Hearing this, everyone fell silent.

The longevity of an empire is closely related to its rulers.

In the Old Age of the Imperium, if it hadn't been for the Great Rebellion, the Emperor would not have sat on the Golden Throne.

If the Emperor had not sat on the Golden Throne, the Empire would not have fallen.

We will thrive, find a way out under the leadership of the Emperor, and the Empire will last forever.

The "King" of the New Empire is too similar to the Emperor during the Great Crusade.

It's just that it's still developing.

But one day, the King will, like the Emperor, launch a great crusade across the galaxy.

The fate of the empire is also closely related to the "king".

As long as the "king" remains, the empire will continue to exist.

"I have no objection, but this matter needs the approval of the "King"!"

Ralph didn't care what kind of government the empire implemented.

Charles nodded and said: "Leave this matter to me. I will go to the temple to meet the "King" tomorrow!"

Marian, who had been quietly listening to everyone's words, spoke.

"The king is not in the temple."

The king is not in the temple?

A flash of surprise flashed in Charles's eyes.

They saw the "King" a few days ago. Could it be that the "King" was asleep?

No, this is not possible.

Because the Star Torch is not activated.

Charles asked: "Lord Marian, I wonder where the "King" has gone and when will he return?"

Marianne shook her head and said, "I don't know. When the king left, he only said that he would be back soon."

"The king is on board the Yuanyuan."

At this time, Ralph suddenly spoke up.

Of all the people here, he is probably the only one who knows where the "King" is.

Others are not qualified to explore the traces of the "King".

Yuanxinghao?

Hearing this, everyone understood.

The Yuanxing is the "King's" vehicle.

Lord Ralph's wife is the head maid beside the king.

It’s not surprising to know the king’s whereabouts.

Charles said to Marianne: "Lord Marianne, please let me know when the King returns to the temple."

Marianne nodded in response.

Although I don’t know why the “King” returned to the Yuanxing, which was about to be mothballed.

But Charles knew that it was best not to disturb Wang at this time.

"Now, do you have any opinions about population and artificial humans?"

As soon as Charles said this, Gavin Matthew was the first to speak out.

"I have no opinion about artificial humans. There is no difference between natural birth and birth from an artificial womb. This is science. But I hope Lord Charles can ask the king if there is any way to increase the number of people with psychic potential. There are too few people with psychic potential. If this continues, the Academy will soon be unable to provide enough astropaths to the Imperial Navy."

There is something very strange, very strange.

Not a single one of the more than 10 million people in the colony possesses psychic potential.

At present, Ark 1 is missing, which makes Star Language Institute lose its channel to obtain new people.

Ralph asked curiously: "Lord Gavin, there are tens of millions in the empire right now. How can there be a shortage of people with psychic potential?"

Gavin shook his head and said: "None of the Empire's subjects obtained from that place had psychic potential, and no psychic potential was found among the descendants born. There were only the Empire's subjects who awakened from the Yuanxing, and their descendants Some psychic potentials were discovered, but as you also know, Ark 1 is missing.”

Hearing this, everyone's expressions darkened.

There is indeed something wrong with the Empire subjects obtained from the trade mall.

Charles pondered: "So, I'm afraid we can't use the genes of the imperial subjects in the colonial satellites."

Frowning slightly, Gavin asked: "What about artificial humans? Where do we get genes?"

At this time, Donald, who had remained silent, spoke up.

"There is a gene bank of the Empire's subjects on the Yuanxing. Although there are only a few hundred thousand copies, it should be enough. However, it cannot be cultivated too much. Perhaps the tens of millions of Empire's subjects on the colonial satellites are the hope of the Empire. ”

Everyone had a vague idea of ​​what Donald, the great sage of science and technology, meant by these words.

Speaking of psionics brings to mind the Warp.

The old empires have been escaping from the subspace, but they can't do anything.

Because the existence of psykers shows that humans are closely related to the subspace, and the subtle connection between humans and the subspace is unbreakable.

But now, everyone has seen hope.

But is not having psykers really a good thing?

How could the Imperial fleet navigate the Warp without psykers?

Absorb the leap technology of other civilizations?

Isn't this a bit too far away?

Moreover, it is no longer the period of the old empire.

The subspace has returned to calm, and those terrifying existences have also fallen silent.

If subspace can be used rationally, it will be beneficial to the development of the empire.
