Start with Mechanical Hunter

Among carbon-based civilizations, if you don’t follow the ‘biological civilization route’ but follow the ‘technological civilization route’, you will eventually encounter a problem.

That is, as technology penetrates into all aspects of society, people are increasingly inseparable from technology and AI.

Then, the chances of a ‘mechanical revolution’ will increase.

This is the same as the large-scale use of ‘human clones’, which will lead to clone rebellion, the large-scale use of ‘AI’, which will cause massive unemployment, and the use of ‘space technology’, which may lead to the risk of invasion of space species.

Whatever is gained, something is lost.

It is also a threshold that civilization has to cross.

But there is something special about the Galenic Republic.

What's special about them is that, as humanoid creatures among carbon-based species, they have too many metal elements in their bodies.

This has benefits, such as being naturally strong, having +100 intimacy with machines, and being good at manufacturing machines and developing technology.

But the disadvantages are also obvious.

As long as a 'carbon-based fusion' is completed, the body will irreversibly evolve towards 'semi-mechanical', and biological organs will begin to evolve into mechanical parts.

The evolution of civilization has never just been the evolution of technology, but also the evolution of species.

The simplest standard is that for a mature first-level civilization, the main race must be a first-level species.

So on and so forth--

A race with a third-level civilization must also be a third-level species.

This must be done in order to complete the ‘ascension of civilization’.

Otherwise, with the physical strength of an intelligent species, it would be impossible to complete the ascension transformation.

In this way, a bug will inevitably appear for the Galen people.

If we want to integrate evolution, the degree of mechanization will be irreversibly deepened.

Without evolution, civilization will stop here and cannot go further.

According to outsiders who don't know the importance of it, transformation is just transformation, isn't it just to become a mechanical life?

But for most humanoid species, they are actually very resistant to this kind of transformation. Who wants to become a robot?

Ask yourself, who wants to become another species?

If this kind of operation is forcibly promoted from top to bottom, it will inevitably cause a lot of opposition, and the centripetal force of civilization will be greatly reduced or even collapse.

And once this kind of social transformation is carried out, the three outlooks, ethics, and technology tree will all have to start again.

If one thing is not done well, a powerful civilization will fall apart.

In the universe, I don’t know how many times this kind of negative case has happened, where technological evolution has failed and civilization has decomposed.

Moreover, even if it can be pushed forward by force, it will still cause strong risks.

For example, during the process of mechanization, whether the human body is compatible will lead to large-scale rejection and death.

Once the brain is modified, hackers, cosmic evil gods, and interstellar terrorist organizations will never miss this golden opportunity during this window of protection.

The transformation is too slow and there are too many unexpected factors. The transformation is too fast and the failure rate is too high.

Apart from anything else, the Mirta Federation next to them would never just watch.

‘Psychic Mecha’, a unique technology of the Federation, can not only control armor, but also has special attacks on AI. Once it becomes a mechanical civilization, will it lead to the failure of civilized wars?

This is even more unacceptable than the decomposition of civilization!

Fortunately, every civilization with excellent development momentum has a lot of capable people within it.

As early as the planet's civilization, the top scientists of the Galen people developed a targeted serum that could inhibit the accumulation of metal elements.

When civilization evolved to level two, a series of biological agents were developed to improve physical fitness and suppress mechanization.

However, this method of evolution also suppressed the fighting instinct of the Galen people in disguise, and also gave the Galen people a reputation that they were only good at building ships and not good at individual combat.

Moreover, this kind of physical problem must also be solved.

The longer it goes on, the more troublesome it becomes.

Therefore, under the strong opposition of the 194th Consul, the previous Consul, the ‘Metal Executor Plan’ was passed.

The essence of this plan is to create a safe path for racial evolution through 'third-level combat species development'.

'According to public information, there are a total of seventeen branches of 'Metal Executors' with different evolutionary directions. Among them, there are three evolutionary directions under the jurisdiction of the military. ’

'And coincidentally, the 'executors' of the three types of military are all mechanically oriented, and I don't know which type Guilliman is. ’

The senior engineer recalled that when he fought with Guilliman before, the opponent suddenly transformed into a 'metal giant'. This did not seem like a mechanical transformation, but more like some kind of 'superpower' or 'transformation'. Skill'.

‘The normal state is a carbon-based body. Once it enters combat mode, it becomes 100% metallized. Mutant? ’

‘Then if we follow Guilliman’s evolutionary direction, the Galenic Republic will move towards a ‘mutant civilization’ in the carbon-based civilization. ’

'Mutant civilization' is a kind of superpower-side civilization. If it develops well, it will be very good. Because all people have superpowers and the population base, there may be a few or even dozens of newborns every year. A super genius with SSS-level powers.

But the 'mutant civilization' also has its flaws. According to the system, it comes with -20% political stability, -20% racial centrality, and +20% chaotic thoughts.

The senior engineer was a bit unprepared.

Because the Galenic Republic is a military regime and an authoritarian government, generally this kind of civilization is very opposed to the option of natural selection and random evolution.

Gao Gong suddenly understood why the other party chose to cooperate with him in private. It might be that in the competition on the evolutionary path, the resources this person got gradually became less and the support from the forces behind him gradually decreased.

This forced the other party to take the evil path.

And the wild biotechnology of the Cyber ​​Test Field is most likely to obtain a large number of research results in a short period of time.

…

After drinking the "Mostar Juice" in one gulp, the next moment, a dizzy and indescribable and fiery touch came instantly. In a trance, Gao Gong seemed to have turned into a huge void worm, placed in a special dimension, wrapped in endless space bubbles. The repeated changes in space parameters were like the small hands of a beautiful masseuse, constantly massaging various parts of himself, from inside to outside, from body to mind, bringing him endless enjoyment.

"Fantastic!!"

[Your Will +100 points]

Gao Gong suddenly stretched out a hand and grabbed a small organism wearing a hood. The claws on the other party's hand were hooking towards the back of his neck.

The black market on this planet is not a safe place. Robbery, fighting, and street fights are common.

Gao Gong held the other person's head. In the "drunken state", the space collapse energy that had been extracted seemed to return to the body. With a pinch of five fingers, this organism that was less than half a person's height was instantly swallowed by the space folds, and no blood or flesh spilled out.

This scared the people around with bad intentions, and the peeping sight was also reduced by more than half.

Compared with the "space shuttle talent", powerful organisms are more likely to comprehend the "planetary magnetic field control".

But this does not mean that Gao Gong has no body memory at all.

The combination of the two can re-light the "space system ability".

At this moment, the communicator sounded, and Dr. Yu called.

"Well, what, the fruit is ripe?! I'll be there right away!!"
