Resurrection Empire

Before he died, he wailed terribly, with a cry of determination.

His cry was not loud, even a little hoarse.

He shouted: "We are as smart as those people, we work as hard, we create so much value, our life should not be like this! Keep going! My friends!"

This is the cry of a low-level miner as early as 900 years ago, before the nine major groups ruled the world and the civil system took shape.

Although he is humble and in trouble, he has a smart brain and an honest heart.

However, his cleverness did not support him to complete the class leap.

He only quietly left half of his book—the unfinished "On Fairness", and then unfortunately died at the mouth of Ruin Beast during an underground mine excavation.

This half of his book was brought to the Unknown City by the descendants of his colleagues in 130 three years ago.

A fellow traveler fell, and the crowd continued to grope forward in the dark.

Suddenly, a thunderbolt flashed across the sky and landed in the middle of the crowd.

A bright light suddenly appeared.

The people walking hand in hand suddenly found a ferocious monster with countless long arms coming from the crowd.

The monster glanced around at an extremely fast speed, remembering the faces of the people around it.

After the light of the lightning faded and everything fell into darkness again, the monster began to grab the people around it and stuff it into its mouth.

The sound of human bones being crushed was extremely penetrating.

But the crowd didn't even dare to speed up and rush forward, because the left side of this section of the road is a cliff, and the right side is a sword, spear, sword and halberd that can easily cut a human body.

People can only listen to the sound of the monster chewing on the human body, and pray in their hearts that it will have enough to eat and will not do anything to other people one day.

When one of them was caught, he shouted angrily: "You have stolen the fruits of our labor, and you still want to eat our flesh and blood!"

This is more than 700 years ago, before the nine major groups ruled the world, a grassroots researcher in Mengdu Biopharmaceutical, the predecessor of the Mengdu Group, roared before his death.

This talented grassroots researcher is the first to tackle the mystery of longevity.

He didn't get to the depth of Sun Miao, but he developed the first generation of anti-aging medicine by mistake.

At that time, Mengdu Biopharmaceuticals was already a colossus. After obtaining the formula of anti-aging medicine, it became even more powerful. It began to grow at a very fast speed, and completed the dominance of the Yuanxing Biopharmaceutical industry.

But the researcher got nothing.

He was about to achieve a class promotion, but after proposing that the production of anti-aging medicine should not be controlled, and that every source star should be able to afford it, he was brutally killed, and his body was made into a specimen and placed in the Mengdu Group The headquarters, and the beautiful story of the sacrifice of the experimental accident was compiled for future generations to admire.

This lie has been going on for more than 600 years, until one day, a group of "poor nobles" who have been deprived of their citizenship came to the Nameless City, and one of them told the secret.

The ancestor of this person was a competitor of the researcher. Out of conscience, he decided to keep the truth of the matter as a family secret from generation to generation, and finally saw the light of day in the nameless city.

It is precisely because of this that the decision-makers of the Nameless City saw through the bloodthirsty nature of the families behind the Nine Great Groups and began to think about economic factors.

They deeply realized that even if they worked hard for the Nine Great Groups and created earth-shattering results, as long as they were not members of those families, there was still no hope of changing their destiny.

The so-called road to citizen advancement is nothing more than a deceitful cover.

The crowd continued to move forward in the dark.

When the strong light came back on, the tentacle-covered monster was no longer around people.

It didn't disappear, but turned into a gigantic monster standing on top of the sky, looking down at the crowd, and from time to time popped out the extra-large tentacles, randomly grabbed one or two people from the crowd, and threw them into the mouth lightly.

More and more people were torn apart, devoured, and drained of their flesh and blood for one reason or another.

Someone shouted before dying: "The so-called cultural relics and historic sites are all lies! Yuanxing has no history at all!"

There are also people who only whispered a word to others, and then were dragged into the ground by the claws that suddenly emerged from the ground.

The whisper is "everyone on the source star is the slave of the nine frozen elders, including the citizens".

Someone screamed "We didn't commit a crime, why should we be expelled", and then this person and his relatives and friends were slaughtered by black armored warriors who fell from the sky.

There were also people who didn't do anything, just rummaged in the ground for food very calmly, and their bodies were inexplicably torn into pieces by the strange force in the void.

Tragedy happened again and again, and people did not reach the shore of their dreams, but there were more and more huge monsters in the sky.

Finally, the light came suddenly, and the crowd seemed to have reached a valley full of singing birds and flowers.

But before people had time to cheer, boundless darkness fell from the sky.

Everyone is swallowed by this darkness.

Sun Ai's consciousness also dissipated.

After an unknown amount of time, a crack was suddenly torn open in the dark sky, and a ray of light fell from the sky, shining into the valley that had been turned into scorched earth.

A baby with a vicissitudes of life was sitting there.

She looked up blankly.

At the end of the light, a man was looking at himself with a smile.

He slowly stretched out his hand, as if guiding himself forward.

The baby shook his head, then looked intently.

The light didn't seem to come from the crack in the sky behind the man, but the man himself was the light source.

His body is composed of warm orange-yellow light.

The light shone on her body, so warm.

"Come on, come here. I'll wait for you here."

The man spoke.

The baby girl got up slowly, and flew over slowly until she was submerged in the light.

"This is the natural color of sunlight."

The man spoke again.

The baby girl nodded with a vague understanding, then fell into a deep sleep.

After a long time, the baby girl woke up.

Sun Ai stared blankly at the burden holding her own, "You already knew all this, didn't you?"

There seemed to be some moisture in Ren Zhong's eye sockets.

It was not just a dream within a dream that Sun Ai experienced just now.

Ren Zhong also "saw" it.

He nodded, "Yes."

"It doesn't make sense."

Ren Zhong: "It's as irrational as this system. But existence is reasonable. Of course, even if something seems reasonable, we have to replace it with a more reasonable one."

Sun Ai: "The predecessors used hundreds of years of summarization and the sacrifice of countless people to finally determine the shortcomings of the system. We did not dare to change it at the beginning. Our attempt was to break away from its system and establish our own system. True civilization. Of course, we have failed miserably. You are only 24 years old, and you have never been exposed to these. I don’t understand why anyone in the world knows it.”

Ren Zhong sighed.

He didn't tell the truth, he just thought about it in his heart.

In his time, a civilization took 5000 years to complete this long road.

It was not until the last 100 years that a group of amazingly talented and sacrificing people completed the theoretical summary, set off an awakening era, and spent hundreds of years practicing the truth before they truly found a way forward for civilization. way to come.

It's still not perfect, but it can lead to perfection.

It took thousands of years and countless generations of people on earth to go from being ignorant to embarking on this path.

That is most of the road to civilization!

But the people on Yuanxing, living in a place like Yuanxing, encounter such a dark social atmosphere, the cost and price of acquiring knowledge are so high, and the power they face is so pervasive and powerful, but in their hearts The flame of kindness that fought for the fate of others was never really extinguished.

Many people who died tragically along the way in the dark groping, if they bowed their heads to the times convincingly, most of them would not have ended up in that end.

But they didn't.

They chose to die standing up instead of living on their knees.

Business associations have gone to great lengths to try to erase any trace of their existence.

Even the Unnamed City may not be the first such city.

However, among countless accidents, an inevitability must be born.

Ren Zhong even suspects that the cunning and elusiveness of the Avatar is the secret struggle of these wills.

The reason why the devil baby—Sun Ai's "previous life" died at his own hands was not that it really had nowhere to escape, but that it had been quietly observing Xinghuo Town, and it understood itself.

It pinned its hopes on me!

As for why there are so many wills to resist in the small nameless city, Ren Zhong believes that this is not a coincidence, nor is it accidental, but inevitable.

Because there are too many sufferers on the source star, and there has never been a shortage of people with lofty ideals in the long history of human civilization.

They keep failing, but also keep trying.

These people struggled for their ideals, and then were wiped out of existence, but their will has been revived.

Even if these people did not leave traces of resistance in the Nameless City, even if the Nameless City did not exist, there must be others who left similar traces of resistance in other places.

Since coming to Yuan Xing, Ren Zhong has been buried in the mud formed by the strong sense of loneliness almost every moment.

With only a little obsession in his heart, he has been struggling and lingering on his last breath.

But after experiencing the secrets deep in Sun Ai's memory from another angle, this feeling of loneliness disappeared.

Ren Zhong thought to himself, I have always had comrades.

There was before, there is now, and there will be in the future.

I am not alone.

"Sun Ai, human beings shouldn't be like this. If human beings are really a free civilization, productivity determines production relations. With the way humans think about problems, it is impossible for human beings to form such a distorted system. On the source star, there must be powerful The irresistible terror of human beings is pulling and controlling everything. We have a long way to go, but we have to start from the first step."

Sun Ai nodded, "Yes, we have already made up our minds. In the latest failure, we summed up a new economic law, but we lost too hastily. You are using the right method now. it, to break it."

Ren Zhong: "But as you said before, this kind of integration is also very dangerous. So, can you tell me your method now?"

Sun Ai's tone suddenly became heavy, "We want to fight with you again, the last time."

"After you're done, will you die?"

"We're dead."

"Is your consciousness completely disappearing?"

"Yes. But we think it's worth it. If the future is still like this, then we don't miss this kind of world. If the future can become what we want to see, even if we can't see it, we can still 'live' ’ in the smiles on everyone’s face in the world I created with my own hands.”

Ren Zhong nodded slowly, "Yes."

"Uncle, our method is to... destroy the 'net'. We can do it."

Ren Zhong stood up abruptly, "Destroy the net? This..."

He has always fantasized about "disconnecting from the Internet".

But he couldn't find an entry point at all.

He felt even more that he was light-hearted and lacking in strength, and he only planned to wait until he had completely climbed up, and even became a behemoth with the statistics of the nine major groups before thinking about how to deal with the real "ruler" of the source star.

But the facts proved that the shackles caused by the existence of the "net" could not be broken through at all.

The higher his status and the more resources he holds in his hands, the stronger the "net" will be watching him, and the greater the possibility of being completely exposed.

If he keeps trying to plant the fire and irradiate others, the chances of eventually being exposed are one hundred percent.

With the strength of the "net", it is absolutely impossible for Ren Zhong to climb to the top of the pyramid before he really integrates.

But once he chooses to truly integrate, he and the forces he created will definitely become an inseparable part of the system.

At that time, even if he can barely maintain his revolutionary belief alone, it will not help.

As Sun Ai said earlier, "Man is a social creature."

Everyone who has formed a deep relationship with him, such as family and friendship, will become his hindrance, forming a wall of sighs that he will never be able to break through.

This is simply an impossible knot to untie.

But now, Sun Ai gave him a big surprise.
