Resurrection Empire

I once wanted to be a good person, but reality forced me to become a devil.

Only by bathing in darkness and being stained with black blood can you get true salvation the moment you put down the butcher knife.

…

Ren Zhong never takes the initiative to harm anyone who has no hostile relationship with him.

But when he participated in the game of human nature, he gained a new understanding.

Those captured desolate people did nothing wrong, they were just born in a "lowly" belly and ended up with this fate.

Since citizens can humiliate and torture any desolate person at will for pure enjoyment, then, before he reshapes the era, every vested interest has a natural hostile relationship with him.

Regardless of whether the other party has done anything to him, the hostile relationship has already existed objectively.

Therefore, Ren Zhong had already shown his attitude when he directly killed No. 38 and himself, but now he just went one step further.

"Tell me, what do you want to do?"

Seeing that Ren Zhong didn't explain, Xiao Xingyue asked with trembling lips.

Ren Zhong thought for a while and asked, "Xiao Xingyue, what do you think of me?"

"ah?"

Ren Zhong took another step forward and asked: "Am I trustworthy? What is your relationship with the president? How much help do you think the president's changes can bring to the Origin Star Civilization?"

Xiao Xingyue was taken away by his aggressiveness and retreated subconsciously. Even the hand holding the water glass trembled a little, "You...you asked me too many questions at once, let me sort them out."

Ren Zhong then stepped back slightly, looking at the other person only through the dim light.

Xiao Xingyue straightened her clothes, feeling very confused. She is now a serious ninth-level telekinesis master. When facing other people, she has always easily dominated the conversation. She has never encountered an opponent like Ren Zhong.

After a long time, she straightened out her thoughts a little, "Let's talk about you first. You are very strange. You have clearly established the persona of a womanizer, but you deliberately avoid the opposite sex most of the time. I even thought you liked it for a while. Man, but you have Ju Qingmeng as your partner. Apart from these strange things, you are a good person. Although you are taking advantage of almost everyone, you have indeed changed the lives of those who are attached to you, and you are still working hard to change more Multiple people.”

Ren Zhong: "Actually, you and I are very similar in this regard. I heard someone say that when you met some ill-fated people during interviews and talked about their lives, your eyes also became wet. You also have a relationship with me. I still sympathize with these people. But you are very familiar with the rules of Source Star and know that this kind of emotion is dangerous, so you deliberately hide it and use your identity as a journalist who is greedy for fame and fortune to cover yourself up. People like us Really good people were not allowed to exist in the past tense.”

Xiao Xingyue: "Yes. Based on this, I trust you, otherwise I would not sneak here today. As for the president and I... When I was young, my parents always told me that we My family has been the president’s retainer for generations. The president treats me well, and I also think his ideas can bring a little vitality to the lifeless Source Star civilization, so I am following him.”

Ren Zhong shook his head: "But that is just to eliminate some of the privileged people and replace them with another part of the privileged people. Imagine that we really took away hundreds of millions of newly rising citizens during the Great Migration. But what will happen decades or hundreds of years from now? Can such changes, which only address the symptoms but not the root cause, really bring the Source Star civilization back to life?"

Xiao Xingyue: "So what do you want to do?"

Ren Zhong: "The development of civilization requires wisdom, and the birth of wisdom requires fertile soil. Fertile soil can only come from a huge population. Every pair of genes represents a possibility when combined. Whether it is a citizen or a desert man, in the fertilized egg Opportunities before birth are actually equal. Citizens can also be idiots, and geniuses can also be born among the deserted people. For example, like me, like those people under my account. With the level of science and technology mastered by the Source Star Civilization today, it should have a larger population. base, and these populations must also have relatively equal opportunities.”

"Let me give you an example. If we were in the agricultural era and relied on the sky for food, then about a thousand diligent and smart people could promote the advancement of civilization's technology and productivity. At the same time, only one million people could give birth to these thousand people. A smart man."

"Then, when the era entered the steam... oh no, the preliminary electrical age, when humans began to use the beasts to develop power resources, as industrialization continued to mature, the knowledge expanded, the knowledge system became more complicated, a thousand smart There are not enough people. Because someone has to make materials, someone has to do medical care, someone has to make mechanical structures, and all walks of life need people. So, at this time, one million smart brains are needed to meet the needs of civilization development. A total population of one billion is needed.”

"Now, Source Star humans have entered the interstellar age. We have interstellar ships and space elevators. Everything we see has become more complicated. For example, the water glass in your hand, why can it be so crystal clear? How did it just solidify into this shape? And this wall, what is the material of the insulation layer inside it, and how is it synthesized and manufactured?"

"You and I don't need to understand these things, because we are users, not producers. However, the people who make them must understand. The knowledge in all walks of life has expanded to an astonishing level, requiring at least tens of millions Only the organic combination of a smart brain can carry so much knowledge. Then, a population of 10 billion is needed. But at present, instead of making progress, our knowledge is standing still. Do you know why this is?"

Xiao Xingyue: "Because we use a large number of alien products purchased by the Yersun Group in most industries?"

Ren nodded, "Yes, so everyone only needs to know how to use it, and why care about its principles. Too much wisdom is wasted because it is installed in the bodies of barren and lazy citizens. As a result, This is what you, me and the president see, civilization is rotten."

"Actually, you can see from the changes in the Ren Group that I have brought so many changes just by liberating the lives of more than 10 million people. If all barren people can get a fair chance to compete, if All indolent citizens have lost their privileges and have to participate in competition and have to learn and struggle to get a better life. Then the goods sold to us by the empire are not only shackles to bind us, but our ladder to the sky. "

"When most people are born, they are actually a blank piece of paper. What content can be left on this white paper in the end does not depend on how white it is, but on where it is. It is in the artist's mind In the hands of a top commander, it can turn into a beautiful picture. In the hands of a mathematician, great mathematical formulas may be born. In the hands of a top commander, it may be written an era-changing document. strategic plan. If it’s in the toilet, it can only be crumpled into a ball and used to wipe your butt.”

"Whether it is an artist, a mathematician or a toilet, they can all be collectively referred to as 'environment'. 'Environment' can shape most white papers. Countless pieces of white paper with meaningful content are stacked together. It is an epic volume of civilization. What I really want to do is to create an environment for all the white papers on the Source Star that is the same as for other people in the territory of my Ren Group."

"Xiao Xingyue, what do you think of my ideal?"

Xiao Xingyue was stunned for a long time. This is not the first day she has met Ren Zhong, and she boasts that she knows Ren Zhong very well. But when Ren Zhong confessed his feelings to her in such simple and straightforward words for the first time, she was still shocked.

She subconsciously wanted to refute that Ren Zhong's ideal was too unrealistic, but when she thought about it, she was horrified to realize that Ren Zhong had actually been walking along this ideal step by step for a long time.

More than a year ago, Ren Zhong was just a newcomer to the wilderness with nothing. Now he has become a guest of four of the nine leading companies, and controls thousands of square kilometers of territory, commands a population of tens of millions, and has millions of soldiers.

Without saying a word, he has grown to this extent. If he can continue to grow strong at this rate, ten years from now, there is no telling that he will be able to pursue this seemingly impossible ideal.

Ren Zhong is both an idealist and a pragmatist. He wasn't joking, he was really struggling.

For some reason, Xiao Xingyue's heartbeat was faster and stronger than when she first heard the change plan from the president when she was young.

Xiao Xingyue swallowed her saliva, "I think your ideal is great, but... this... this is difficult."

Ren Zhong smiled.

At this moment, he confirmed that Xiao Xingyue could become one of his own.

Ren Zhong grabbed her hand and patted the back of her hand, "Of course, this is much more difficult than the president's goal. But being difficult doesn't mean I can't stop doing it. Or, if it's just me, Struggle is difficult. But as you can see now, I am not struggling alone. There are also Sun Miao, Ju Qingmeng, Ma Dafu and his daughter, etc., everyone is helping me, and my strength is changing. Get stronger and stronger. Maybe we are still weak now, but more and more people will definitely join my ideal. Now, there is one more you. There will be more you in the future... …If this continues, why worry about it not being possible?”

Xiao Xingyue: "Just tell me, how do you want me to help you?"

"Take me into the headquarters of the Yersun Group. I want to meet the real senior leaders of the Yersun Group."

Xiao Xingyue: "Then what?"

"Lend me your telekinesis equipment."

"What happens next?"

"You should hurry back to the military industrial city and tell the president that you are being held hostage by me."

"Then how do you leave?"

"The secret must not be leaked. Just wait for my good news."

…

Three hours later, Xiao Xingyue, who had just returned to the military industrial city on a fast airship, received the "good news."

A violent explosion occurred at the Yersun headquarters, and the top of the nearly 300-story building was almost completely flattened.

Ying Hao immediately summoned Xiao Xingyue and asked her what was going on.

Xiao Xingyue was speechless.

Ying Hao slapped an accident report in front of Xiao Xingyue, "Read it yourself!"

Xiao Xingyue looked down and was shocked.

Ren Zhong died in the accident. At the same time, Yersun Group also killed a finance minister and a vice president.

What's even more bizarre is that the few remaining contribution points stored in the bank's own carrier have also been spent.

According to the association's original plan, these contribution points were supposed to be the start-up capital for senior citizens to start businesses in the empire after the completion of the Great Migration, but in the end, they were all taken away in one pot.

The person who spends this money has a heavy responsibility.

He controlled the top management of the Yersun Group through telekinesis equipment, obtained the authorization password, and then opened the vault of the Yersun Bank, went deep into the vault, and activated the secret code that only the helmsmen of the nine major groups were qualified to use. , the "Knowledge Ball" whose value is second only to the "Net", and used up these contribution points to exchange for an entire "Technology Tree" in it.

The value of this "knowledge ball" is extraordinary.

Because the distance between Source Star and the Empire is too far, information transmission is inconvenient. When Source Star purchases knowledge from the Empire, it is almost impossible to complete it in real time using traditional communications. If this task were given to the transportation team, it would take decades to go back and forth.

As early as two hundred years ago, the empire came up with a solution, transporting a ball that stored a large amount of scientific knowledge and information, and placed it in the vault of Alxun Bank.

When the association has needs, it can purchase them directly through the "Knowledge Ball".

In the past tense, with the comprehensive monitoring of the "net", no one could break through the protection of the vault, and it was even less possible for anyone to steal assets.

But now, Ren Zhong has done it.

As for the "technology tree" that Ren Zhongchong redeems, it is the nuclear fusion technology route that is recognized by Rock Group's scientific researchers as having little value, including related materials science and technology, vacuum magnetic confinement cabin technology, and the integrated manufacturing of super Tokamak reactors. Craftsmanship and so on.

Rock Group believes that since there is mature space charging station technology that can provide inexhaustible energy, and nuclear fusion technology is also expensive, there is no need to think about this outdated technology. thing.

Ying Hao sighed, "Have you finished reading it?"

Xiao Xingyue: "Yes."

Ying Hao: "After Ren Zhong exchanged these things, he was delayed for about half an hour, left the vault, and tried to break out. However, in the end he failed and blew himself up when he was about to be captured alive."

Xiao Xingyue hummed, "I know."

Ying Hao: "I want to know what exactly he said to you? In addition, I also have to tell you something. I have to hand you over."

Xiao Xingyue raised her head blankly, "I asked him how to leave. He clearly told me that the secret should not be leaked and asked me to wait for good news. I thought he had a way."

"Oh... forget it."

After Ying Hao finished speaking, he turned away and looked into the distance with an expressionless expression, his mind also filled with confusion.

…

Ren Zhong opened his eyes.

There was a wanton and arrogant smile on his face.

He succeeded.

This time travel, he got too many precious things.

What it's like to be a time thief is really not that satisfying.

The most powerful spy can steal information from time.

Ren Zhong opened the door, strode out, and headed straight to Spark Science Academy.

From now on, he will create a new course in the academy that only top students can access.

Nuclear fusion science.

Of course, it was impossible for him to memorize all the relevant content in this extremely complex academic subject in just half an hour.

But he has grasped most of the core parameters of the enlightenment stage of nuclear fusion, and can now open courses to start cultivating relevant basic personnel.

Next, if necessary, he will repeat his old tricks, constantly devoting his life to reading and memorizing, and finally conjuring an academic discipline out of nothingness.

Then, even after the Great Migration, as long as he can leave some more metal on the Source Star, the abandoned Source Star humans here will still have a future.
