The Wandering Planet

After listening to Moss's remarks, the scene fell into a brief silence.

There is no doubt that [internal assimilation] is an opportunity for human evolution to evolve.

Choosing this item means that everyone on earth will get a free prosthetic transformation opportunity, and the reproduction of the race will continue to deepen.

As for the benefits of the prosthetic body, there is no need to say more, more efficient labor, more powerful combat power, and more tenacious vitality.

Those who have undergone prosthetic surgery on the wandering earth can deeply appreciate the various benefits that this mechanical organ can bring.

However, the consequences of doing so cannot be ignored, such as the possibility of human rebellion due to dissatisfaction, and the possibility of losing the opportunity to choose another evolutionary path.

For example, Qiao Lu knows that in addition to the synthetic evolutionary route oriented by the mechanical tendency, there are also the genetic control route oriented by the variation tendency, and the harmony tendency oriented route of the unity of man and nature.

If all the population on earth is turned into semi-synthetic humans at this time, is it equivalent to losing the opportunity to choose other evolutionary routes?

This is something that has to be considered.

Fortunately, no one was in a hurry to make a decision, and everyone else asked to hear what the remaining two agreements were before deciding which one to choose.

"Protocol II, shield the world. Moss can transform the planetary engine into a shielding force field generator, forming a planetary shielding force field on the surface of the earth, so that other civilizations cannot easily detect our existence. But the tail flame of the planetary engine will The penetrating force field causes the shielding to fail, so the planetary engine must be turned off when the planetary shielding force field is activated."

It turned out to be the shielding force field of the planet formed by the deformation ability of the planetary engine, which is quite convenient.

It is a pity that it cannot be started at the same time as the planetary engine, but it still does not prevent it from being a very practical planetary special ability.

"Protocol 3, the ideal city plan. The use of fire energy to transform the earth's cities does not give them vitality, but enables them to obtain automatic expansion, self-repair and other characteristics, and eventually allow the city to cover the entire earth and obtain extremely high population capacity. , and efficient scientific research efficiency. However, the continuous self-growth of cities will make it difficult to exploit natural resources, and it is best to obtain productive resources through overseas colonies or alien trade.”

A prosperous urban planet does have the style of a capital of an interstellar civilization empire. To build such a planet into a political center, an economic center and a scientific research center, and then supply resources to the capital through other agricultural planets, mining planets, and energy planets, is simply The standard operating mode of an interstellar civilization.

However, there is no such condition on Wandering Earth at present, let alone overseas colonies, there is not even an alien civilization that can conduct stable trade.

Therefore, the ideal city plan can only be put on hold temporarily to see if there is a good opportunity to use it on another planet in the future.

After Moss explained the contents of the three agreements, in fact, the choice to be made was the choice between [Internal Drive Assimilation] and [Shielding the World].

The biggest question is whether [Internal Drive Assimilation] can be selected.

Russian representative Vasily took the lead in speaking: "I think this is a good thing. Although there may be some dissatisfied voices, human civilization as a whole will move forward. At this special moment, we really shouldn't let it go. I have never had an opportunity to strengthen myself. Because no one knows what kind of crisis the earth will encounter next time.”

This is also the fundamental reason for Qiao Lu's hesitation. In normal times, humans do not need to take such extreme means to complete the evolution of the race, but now they are indeed in a dangerous journey, should they give up such a race evolution? Opportunities cannot be determined by emotion.

But Vasily's remarks did not get a response from others,

After all, this is still not a convincing enough reason.

So Derek, the representative of the United States, proposed: "This is a decision that will determine the future of all mankind. I don't think it should be decided by only a few people. Let's find a way to organize a referendum to count every dungeon. Residents' votes to decide whether or not to implement the agreement."

It is a fine tradition in the United States to vote first in case of indecision. Besides, this is the most democratic way to look.

At least the person who made this decision can feel at ease. After all, it is all human beings who make the choice, and the consequences, whether right or wrong, do not have to be borne by a few people.

The British representative George and the French representative Bevin also felt that this idea was a good idea. When they were about to raise their hands to agree, Qiao Li suddenly stood up, slapped the table heavily and said:

"I object!"

The hands of the two who had just raised their hands stopped in mid-air, because the permanent director representatives all have one-vote veto power. As long as one person expresses his opposition, the plan will not pass until he changes his mind.

Derek couldn't help frowning. He thought that for the first time, Qiao Lu attended the meeting as a permanent representative, and there would be no big moves.

Unexpectedly, the first thing he did when he came up was to exercise a veto power over his proposal, which was very embarrassing.

Derek had to ask Qiao Li: "Is there anything wrong with what I'm doing? The people should have the right to vote on whether or not to accept this agreement."

"The people should also have the right to choose whether to accept the prosthetic transformation!" Qiao Lu said righteously.

"The referendum does not mean that the right decision can be made. How can you blindly believe in this kind of thing? Let me give the simplest example, if the final vote is 7:3 to pass the resolution, but the remaining 30% of the people If we decide to resist with force, can we afford such consequences?"

If such a situation occurs, it is not a question of affordability, but whether the plan can continue to be implemented.

Qiaolu further said: "If the final vote is a more extreme 51% to 49%, will this result really not lead to a great division of mankind? How much suffering we have gone through to finally be united, and now it will be destroyed as one A rash referendum?"

The consequences of this are obvious. The remaining 49% will never admit defeat obediently, and it is not surprising what strategies they will adopt.

Derek still insisted: "But these are just predictions, and the voting results are not necessarily going to turn out like this."

"But as the United Earth Government, we should anticipate this outcome and do everything in our power to avoid it."

Qiao Lu said pressingly step by step, not at all like the permanent director representative who just took office.

The hands of the representatives of Britain and France have been completely let go, and it is obvious that they have foreseen that this referendum is impossible to achieve.

As Qiao Lu said, the consequences of this referendum may not be borne by human beings.

Even if there is only a 1% chance of this happening, the fate of all mankind should not be joked about.

This is not the way a coalition government should make decisions.
