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, it will increase the probability of a 'mechanical revolution'.
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 space species invasion.
Whatever is gained, something is lost.
It is also a threshold that a civilization must cross.
But there's 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 a mechanical affinity of 100, being good at manufacturing machinery, 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--
Races of third-level civilization must also be 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 will inevitably 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 any further.
According to the opinions of 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 it is not done well, a powerful civilization will fall apart.
In the universe, I don’t know how many times this negative case has occurred, where technological evolution has failed and civilization has decomposed.
Moreover, even if it can be pushed forward by force, it will still cause huge risks.
For example, during the process of mechanization, will the human body be compatible and will it cause 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, 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 it will 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, against the objections 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' among carbon-based civilizations.'
'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 has -20% political stability, -20% racial centrality, and 20% chaotic thoughts.
The senior engineer is a little unprepared.
Because the Galenic Republic is a military regime and an authoritarian government, generally this kind of civilization is very opposed to this kind of natural selection and blind evolutionary options.
Gao Gong suddenly understood why the other party chose to cooperate with him in private. Perhaps in the competition for the evolutionary path, the resources this person received gradually decreased, and the support of the forces behind him also gradually decreased.
This forces the other party to take the wrong path.
The wild biotechnology in the cyber testing ground is the 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, the world was spinning, and an indescribable and extremely hot touch came instantly. In a trance, Gao Gong seemed to have turned into a huge void worm, and was in a certain place.
In the special dimension, surrounded by endless space bubbles, the repeated changes of space parameters are like the small hands of a beautiful masseur, constantly massaging various parts of oneself, from the inside to the outside, from body to mind, bringing happiness to oneself.
Come to endless enjoyment.
"Cool!!"
[Your Will 100 points]
Gao Gong suddenly stretched out a hand and grabbed a small living creature wearing a hood. The hook on the opponent's hand was hooking towards the back of his neck.
The black market on this planet is not a safe place. Robberies, fights, and street fights are commonplace.
The senior engineer held down the opponent's head. In his 'drunken state', the space collapse energy that had been extracted seemed to return to the body. With a squeeze of five fingers, this organism, which was less than half a person tall, was instantly trapped in the space.
The folds swallowed it up, and no flesh and blood spilled out.
This frightened the malicious people around him, and their prying eyes were also reduced by half.
Compared with the 'talent of space shuttle', it is easier for powerful organisms to understand the 'control of the planet's magnetic field'.
But this does not mean that Gao Gong has no physical memory at all.
The combination of the two can re-ignite the 'space system'.
At this moment, the communicator rang, Dr. Rain's call.
"Well, what, the fruit is ripe?! I'll come right away!!"
