National Juggernaut

Chapter 684 New World

The continuous green hills and forests are the most common scenery in this world.

Giant trees of 20 meters are extremely common, and ancient trees of [-] meters are commonplace, and following them are all kinds of huge strange beasts.

The world of Epotal, numbered Y783234, judging from the Y prefix, the danger level of this world is not outrageous, and this is only for middle and high-level sword masters who can easily crush giant beasts.

"Wow, it's really big enough, sixty, over a hundred meters, right?"

The ground is constantly shaking, and the giant beast walking past has a slow rhythm and a long neck far exceeding the height of the tower crane.

The cart went up and down with the footsteps, and the people on it jumped and stopped. Just this tonnage made people give up the urge to hunt.

But judging from the fact that it sticks out its neck, walks and eats all the way, its jagged teeth are bigger than a human, and keeps staring at the leaves of an ancient tree towering above the clouds, this guy is actually a vegetarian.

"Leader Zheng, is this world really suitable for starting?"

From the moment they entered, inquiries from other wargroups never stopped.

"Wait and see, judging from the current situation, it's not very suitable."

Along the way, Zheng Li talked about "garbage forest world", "anything that is wet can grow mushrooms", "if it weren't for the presence of horses, people and ghosts would not come back", but he always insisted on his decision-making with actions.

This world full of giant beasts and big trees is the starting point chosen by Zheng Li, and at the same time, it is also the road to restart for the centaur clan.

Ms. Pandora's experiment has reached preliminary conclusions, which is not good news.

"Let a beast suddenly awaken wisdom. Let a life that has been a beast for decades suddenly discover that he is a human being. Can he accept a new world view? If he cannot accept and deny his past self, he will still be a human being." A beast. And if he accepts a new world view and reverses it completely, what is the difference between this and malicious brainwashing."

Philosophy that involves thought and human self-cognition basically has no definite answer, but the results of science and ability tests can be displayed in front of everyone.

Although Ms. Pandora's "enlightenment" is not brainwashing, but in terms of the process of action, this way of directly infusing a whole set of thinking patterns and basic knowledge, and turning the "brain" into operation, allowing it to re-form personality, should be called brainwashing. What. Oh, indoctrination learning machines.

It’s better not to get entangled in principles, morals, and messy things at the social level. There is basically no single correct answer. The current reclamation team only wants results and conclusions.

Among the captured male individuals, 41% were successful in enlightenment, but they behaved like three or five-year-old children, and communication was quite difficult. The most frustrating thing is that even if those male centaurs communicate with you, they are just Thinking about how to put you in the pot.

Yep, in the pan, not on the grill, that's their biggest improvement.

"It can't be done any more. Just instill a series of basic knowledge and moral system directly. Let me say something stupid. Morality is a derivative of society."

Knowledge can be instilled, but right and wrong can only be judged. To make a judgment standard for a certain behavior, good or bad, good or bad, is the immature form of morality and law.

"If you can't do it, even if you do it reluctantly, it will only split his soul, and the two contradictory self-cognition will tear that fragile soul apart."

If this unfolds, it will probably involve the academic field of the soul's own job, but now, just looking at the results, it is extremely ineffective for adult centaurs to "enlighten wisdom".Even if they have the wisdom of three or five-year-old children, they will only become more dangerous and aggressive beasts.

The success rate of enlightenment for female individuals is relatively high, exceeding [-]%, but the strange thing is that their psionic abilities are inherently weak, and their aggressiveness is also low.

This kind of situation made Zheng Li a little puzzled. Didn’t the psionic abilities of this kind of horse people before were all extremely low-level “zero eggs”? How could there be a gap due to different genders? There should be no difference between genders in psionics of.
". You are looking at the average value. Weak males cannot survive. The double test of ethnic competition and nature makes them only the most cruel and cunning ones. Such males are strong-willed and often have strong desires. Even Some of them have awakened the psychic talent of their ancestors, and it is normal for the psychic value to be high."

"Does the environment determine the temperament of the race?" After communicating with the researchers again, Zheng Li confirmed that those common centaur bandits are probably not suitable for enlightenment, at least not suitable for becoming the first batch of wise centaur groups.

They are too aggressive, and adult males often have a pile of blood debts in their hands, and their daily routine is hunting or fighting. Even if there is a new change in the head, it is difficult for the behavior and self to change qualitatively.

The females are slightly better, but only a little bit.

Cub?It is indeed better, but it is one thing to have a very limited number of cubs in a group. Those "cubs" who follow their parents to rob houses and kill each other at the age of three or four, some are more normal, and the other part, after enlightenment, behaves better than their parents more dangerous.Therefore, Zheng Li chose this world.

"Head Zheng, Ms. Pandora's response, the new adult sample has successfully enlightened, and the aggressiveness is much better than the previous type."

"Okay, then let's continue to advance the frontline plan."

Zheng Li was thinking at the time, is it possible that there are horse tribes that are not aggressive, such as those that eat grass, for example, that do not need to fight each other to compete for territory and survival resources?
"The superior living environment made them embark on another 'road of degeneration'. Most of them rely on gathering for a living, mainly vegetarian creatures. Such a group is quite suitable as the first batch of 'seeds'."

Looking at the local ethnic group where even the jagged teeth of the horse people have degenerated into flat teeth, Zheng Li nodded in satisfaction.

The growth environment shapes the personality of an individual, and the natural environment and social environment shape the personality of a group. When they are at the low end of the food chain for a long time, they will naturally develop the advantages of omnivores and rush towards herbivores.

Compared with the centaurs of the foreign series, the centaurs here are not only less aggressive, but also slightly disadvantaged in wartime, and have a strong urge to escape. Quite fast.

"However, if we use this world as the starting point, the cost we have to pay will increase significantly"

The world doesn't have a clear intensity level, but there are threatening creatures in it. The danger level here is only Y. That's because there are no humans here for a long time, and most giant beasts have no desire for "little meat people" with little meat.

Along the way, Zheng Li had never even seen a "small beast" below two meters. The predators flying in the sky reminded him of super heavy bombers.

"It seems that the cost of adding an extra air defense is high and the return is high. I chose this world not just for Ms. Pandora (Zheng Li whispered: she is just passing by, this world belongs to us). This air The world with extremely high oxygen content and all kinds of vitality is extremely exuberant, and it is the world with the largest area among the data."

The biggest world is the root of Zheng Li's choice to be here.It's not just for occupying land, but the huge world means enough living space, countless unknown minerals and natural resources that can be explored.

Although the cost of exploration and hunting in the early stage will definitely be higher, in the long run, to put it bluntly, during the war, Zheng Li, as a "rear factory", required a lot of resources, including but not limited to resources, space, minerals, and manpower.

If it is a three-to-five-year war, Zheng Li will take a small world and run it at his own risk. But if it is a long-term war of a hundred years or even 200 years, Zheng Li will have to consider the development potential of this world as a second-tier and third-tier region. .

The starting point, or the main city of the "Zheng Family Legion", Zheng Li hopes to take a long-term view.

".At present, seventeen kinds of ores including iron ore, copper-like ore, Zhoushi, and Baoquan green diamond have been discovered. Although they are not very valuable, they are not buried deep in the ground. They are very easy to develop open-pit mining areas. This is virgin land”

There are quite a few such worlds in the database, and they are all remote worlds that no one cares about.

Unlike the fact that quite a lot of wars in the old days were caused by natural resources, the land of the gods is due to the fusion of too many worlds, the collision and fusion of various natural rules, and the conventional natural resources composed of various "atom-like" quite wealthy.

What is really worth fighting for is always various resources linked to "spiritual power", such as the Mushroomman World back then, the Qiu Qiuguo that increased the upper limit of spiritual power.

There is also the Star Hunting World next door. From the name, it can be seen that there are quite a lot of supernatural creatures worth hunting.

In this world, although there are many exotic beasts and super giants, most creatures have no spiritual power. This world is purely "super nutrition".

Coupled with the fact that the world is far away from Shiqian City and the high shipping cost is the reality that can most deter speculative impulses, but for Zheng Li, this is not a problem.

".This world, with huge herds and endless forests, means that our survival resources do not require additional expenditures. To put it bluntly, food is not a problem. There is food and land to support people. We can transform it into a new life. , the ecological circle and the urban circle of the new ethnic group.”

As for the spiritual materials needed for the growth of the sword master, it is even simpler.

"In the early stage, the surrounding worlds can be collected. Going forward, the war continues to escalate, and every world will be threatened. Do you still have to worry about not finding prey?"

Promising to help Pandora find a suitable group of centaurs is a task that Zheng Li cannot refuse, but finding a "home" for himself and the war group is his real primary goal.

"...According to the plan, the first batch of centaur cubs will take at least three years. It seems that we have enough time to adapt to the environment, and then transform them to be suitable for us to live in."

It is obviously a super long-term task to help the horse race and rebuild the race and even civilization from scratch.Zheng Li has no obligation or plan to do the whole process. It's almost enough to help Pandora do the early stage. Taking this opportunity to exploit his own area is also the meaning of the above.

"The DNA lineage of the local centaurs has come out, which is highly similar to the common centaurs. I won't go into details, anyway, as long as you know that their direct relationship is closer than humans and chimpanzees. If humans and orangutans are cousins, they They are brothers. Probably the harsh environment forced them to run around like mice, so they really regarded themselves as mice."

Contrary to expectations, Song Ying is not interested in this kind of creature at all. She has already collected a full set of centaur information, and for this subspecies that is just a different color, she has only collected one or two specimens.

And the most subtle thing is that the horse people here not only have no concept of settlements, they have been chasing aquatic plants, vegetables and fruits for a long time, and they cannot beat other local ethnic groups, but they are very good at running around.

Zheng Li went to see a group of "indigenous people" with his own eyes, not to mention dealing with his own party. When he saw outsiders, he would ring the bell and call the police.

Get a little closer and run away.Thinking of the "full martial arts" of the same ethnic group in his hometown, Zheng Li still sighed a little.

"...Let Ms. Pandora take her time, we have enough time."

Holding the latest frontline battle report in Zheng Li's hand, he browsed it a little bit, and he was relieved that the situation was not too bad.

The second wave of war is still under preparation, and the front line of the Atel people is still in a slightly retracted trend. The lore miracle that separates the winner from the loser.

Zheng Li notified the battle on the front line, and also allowed the researchers to continue their work with peace of mind.

".In my personal opinion, loyalty is more important than ability. The oldest individual of a group will often become a sample and model for the latecomers. His personal behavior pattern will become the target of the group to imitate and catch up with. To be straightforward, I I hope the first batch of 'horse people' will be 'Kinren Pie'."

It was for this reason that he finally gave up on the wilderness horsemen outside.The son of a bandit in the wilderness is not sure that he will inherit his father's business, but if the son of the wilderness grew up in the bandit's den and thinks that killing and predation are the natural rules of nature, then it is normal for this generation to become more and more crooked.

On the other hand, if the parents are all "family members", then the "second generation" and "third generation" will naturally find a new direction of progress.
"Cultivating the second devil should start from a baby. We have plenty of time. Let's cancel the plan of using adult individuals to make do with the origin. We can wait for a new generation of individuals to grow up."

Compared with ordinary creatures, the centaurs also have a subtle advantage. Their growth speed, aging speed, and death speed are all quite fast.

An adult centaur, from the prime of life to the death of old age, is only about four or five years of human beings, and the average life span of known centaur is only sixteen, and those who live past 25 years old are considered birthdays.

This reflects one of the root causes of the broken but unable to rebuild horse people's civilization. This generation has come to an end before it has time to mature. Even if there is any spark of civilization by chance, it will be forcibly cut off by the laws of nature.

But Zheng Li could wait (he was busy with private work), but Shi Qiancheng didn't want to wait.

With the help of temporarily transferred "experts", the originally short puberty and maturity were shortened again.

The first group of horse people was established in less than two months.
