When Chen Feng boarded the return fast shuttle ship and headed straight to the earth, the mammoth statue demolition plan had already been completed and was implemented immediately.
Today, humans have hundreds of very large cities, more than 10,000 medium-sized cities and settlements, and more industrial bases and military camps in the solar system.
A total of 33,762 statues of the sage Chen Feng were being peeled off from their heads during rapid construction by large-scale automated machinery.
Chen Feng looked at the people in Statue Square through the online surveillance provided by Fanxing.
Nearly everyone was notified before the action was implemented.
Then, almost everyone dropped what they were doing and came here.
At this time, the statue squares in major cities and settlements are crowded with people.
People looked up at the sky one after another with different expressions.
Some people gnashed their teeth, some cried bitterly, some cursed loudly, and some were numb and stiff...
Although everyone knows that this is the request of the sage himself, there are still countless people who cannot help themselves and find it difficult to control their emotions when facing the statues being demolished.
Some people even rushed forward out of control, trying to defend the temple in their hearts with their lives.
The soldiers responsible for maintaining order had to use coercive means to control the situation.
Tear gas, area electric shock, forced noose, powerful anesthetic smoke...
But in fact, these soldiers didn't suffer much.
In fact, they are even more sad than ordinary people.
Soldiers are the most devout followers of the sage Chen Feng.
It's just that it's a soldier's bounden duty to execute orders, so they have no choice but to be evil people.
Their rationality dictates that they obey the decision made jointly by Chen Feng and the top brass of the security forces, but they are still struggling in their hearts.
A seemingly simple demolition of a statue has become the throes of civilization, like quitting smoking, or even quitting drugs.
This scene made Chen Feng very painful.
No one has a more complicated mood than him.
He silently turned off the monitor and didn't want to watch it anymore.
Chen Feng let out a long sigh, picked up the purple sand teapot in front of him, and held it in his palms, feeling a scalding temperature in his palms.
He turned to look out the window of the shuttle, trying to use the starry sky to relieve his mood.
But he failed, and his eyes drifted downwards involuntarily.
The shuttle was taking off, and Chen Feng looked down from above, just in time to see his statue built on the Star Front Fortress.
This statue is an all-metal structure, thirty-five kilometers high, towering out of the force field shield, even higher than the atmosphere of Star Frontier Fortress.
This is the largest statue built by human civilization for Chen Feng, and it even has its own name, the Star Feng Colossus.
Compared with other statues, the Star Blade Colossus has its own unique features.
It is not a dead thing, but a huge humanoid machine with real combat capabilities.
In addition to being the largest statue of Chen Feng, the Xingfeng Colossus is also the largest humanoid warrior ever created by mankind.
All mankind has only built this one humanoid warrior with a height of more than 100 meters.
Top-level Galaxy Senmaru warriors can go in wearing omnipotent warrior form armor and control them through secondary links.
The Star Frontier Colossus incorporates the latest technologies from dozens of research units such as the Mechanical Institute, the Power Institute, the Blasting Institute, the Super Large Mechanical Central Control System Institute, and the Bionic Institute, and is the pride of countless people.
Three months ago, the Star Frontier Colossus had just undergone a comprehensive technological upgrade and completed a high-mobility exercise.
As a technology display medium for many scientific research institutes, and with its own important historical symbolism, the Starfront Colossus has always been the pride of the residents of Starfront Fortress.
But Chen Feng thought it was simply ridiculous.
The Star Blade Colossus has symbolic meaning, and only symbolic meaning.
The humanoid armor is so large that its mobility and firepower distribution are extremely unreasonable.
In a space battle, this is a stupid target.
The battlefield effect that such a huge humanoid weapon can achieve cannot be equivalent to that of several battleships of the same weight, or a swarm of micro-fighters.
Doing this is a sheer waste of resources and the precious lives of technicians.
Scholars and the military obviously know this, otherwise they wouldn't just make one.
So the technical demonstrations and all that are just nonsense, the real purpose is to erect a statue of him.
What's even more annoying is that these people are not willing to dismantle the Star Edge Colossus and disassemble it into small fighter planes. They are just changing the face of the Star Edge Colossus and turning it into the image of a faceless man.
In the renovation plan of the Star Frontier Fortress, the Star Frontier Colossus will transform into a bipedal smart battleship, orbiting the Star Frontier Fortress, and barely functioning as a guard that is better than nothing.
Chen Feng closed the porthole window and didn't want to look anymore.
bother.
I did make a mistake.
As a thief, I am finally addicted to my false reputation.
I shouldn't have blindly improved my status a thousand years ago.
This is all my bad nature - the bitter fruit planted by my love of vanity.
Now everyone in the world tastes it with me.
He turned on all-channel communication.
"I am Chen Feng, and I have something to tell you."
He talked a lot.
He has never said so much in a public speech.
He shared with people his state of mind as a mortal and then step by step to where he is today.
He conducted profound repentance and self-examination.
He was easy to scold again. This time he not only scolded others, but also scolded himself.
The general meaning is that if I am wrong, I am wrong.
I admit it.
I make mistakes too.
I don't care that you worship me.
I hope you learn to resist everything.
Even if I am the one oppressing you, still resist and show me.
What mankind needs is not the will to worship anyone, but the courage to resist all oppression and challenge fate.
Whether it is the solar system barrier that you can see, or the ideological cocoon made up of my personal worship and sense of mission that you cannot see, they are all oppression.
Only by breaking all oppression and restoring reasonable freedom of thought can there be a way out.
You must ignite your own desires and break all oppression.
Even if your desire is just a simple desire to survive, as long as your desire to survive is based on mutual trust and cooperation, it will be fine.
Only when you have desire can you get real creativity, use your brains, show your true thirst for knowledge, and achieve pioneering results.
Therefore, my decision to remove the statue of myself will not change.
Even if you cry or make trouble, I don't care at all.
I'm not happy either, but only sad.
I will only hate my self-marketing back then even more.
Yes, I am not as great as you think.
I was once just a thief who was greedy for fame.
None of the knowledge I spread thousands of years ago is my own original work.
I just act as a bridge for information transmission, so that the efforts of people on a certain timeline will not be in vain.
I shouldn't occupy the magpie's nest and pretend to be someone else.
I unknowingly became too obsessed with my personal fame.
Now I give other people's things back to them.
I tell you the truth.
This truth is shattering and difficult to accept, and you must accept it too.
Now, are you awake?
After scolding him, Chen Feng cut off communication again and refused to let anyone contact him.
Anyway, people's hearts in this timeline have been twisted like this, so try your best to be a monster.
He is gambling again.
I bet on whether my own self-overthrow and denial can really break the cocoon of thinking, awaken everyone's self-confidence, and let the world realize that "I can" does not mean that the ancients can do it and I can, but that I can do it.
After saying these words, Chen Feng indeed made a new decision.
After returning this time, he will continue to weaken his sense of existence in the process of building civilization to prevent himself from being deified again.
He even wanted to quietly erase his name from history.
In the past, the superficial reason why he focused on establishing his own authority was to make things easier, and he hoped to use himself as a mirror to inspire other potential leaders to learn from him and catalyze their self-improvement.
But his underlying driving force in psychology is vanity.
Chen Feng didn't realize it before, but now he understands.
Now, he himself has achieved his wish and become a leader, but the growth of his descendants has completely failed to meet his expectations.
This is not his random speculation. In addition to his own understanding of the Ares Plan, the Lost Ones, etc., there is another strong evidence.
Humanity in this timeline has never experienced cruel wars after the catastrophe, and has more time to recuperate and develop technology.
After entering the 29th century, there is also the intelligent assistance of the stars.
Human civilization in this timeline has unique living conditions, and its technological level should develop better.
Chen Feng has been observing it for more than a month. It can be seen from the super brain core of Galaxy Battle Pill, Snowflake Battleship and Fanxing that it is indeed better than the previous timeline.
But Chen Feng is still dissatisfied because he has not seen a leap-forward qualitative change.
Chen Feng didn't know much about civilian technology, and his vision was mainly focused on military weapons.
The performance of live ammunition weapons has not changed qualitatively. We are still playing with protons, neutrons, and quarks. We have barely explored the fission and fusion of the bottom layer of quarks, and have initially dabbled in string energy.
This string energy is not as simple as the string theory of thousands of years ago. It has undergone essential changes. The structure is more complex, the theory is richer, and the classification of string energy is also larger and more accurate.
But the essence is still the subdivision of matter. In other words, it is the preson or the preson.
Energy weapons are just more powerful and intense. There is still no qualitative change. They are still phase particles, gamma rays, high-energy rays, etc.
The Stellar Cannon is an innovation that combines live ammunition weapons and energy weapons, but this innovation itself is still based on human research on the sun.
The innovative theory of stellar cannon is still based on the imagination of mankind in the 21st century.
I don’t know whether the people in the past were too strong or the people who came after were too useless.
It may also be that one thousand years is too short compared to the entire process of civilization, and time compression coupled with the blockade of the solar system has limited the horizons of future generations.
At present, the most cutting-edge weapon technology of mankind is the physical toxin bomb introduced by absorbing the biological manufacturing concept of Z bacteria, but its structural stability, infectivity and blasting ability are not as good as the original version.
Others, such as biosynthetic metal materials and envelope-type curvature-like engines, are still born from Z bacteria.
The magic war of colonization that Chen Feng catalyzed after his arrival was also a subsidiary product of the Z bacteria.
The fact is that apart from absorbing the mutational innovation brought by the Z-bacteria, human progress in all other aspects is still limited to the path that Fanxing and the major human science academies had calculated in the previous timeline, but it was too late to complete.
No one really breaks out of the physical rules in the solar system and "goes out and brings it back".
Chen Feng didn't see anything that was enough to subvert tradition. For example, antimatter bombs and dark energy black hole bombs, the two cores he had expected, still failed to be born in advance, and scientists were blocked from the door.
These respectively represent the new poles of human technological level, the utilization of antimatter and dark energy.
In addition, because the research level of unified force is still not up to standard, human's curvature-like technology has not evolved to a complete body that can exceed the speed of light - curvature technology.
There is no teleportation ability like a spherical battleship that seems to be able to jump.
Based on his own observations of the compound-eye civilization, Chen Feng can conclusively confirm that antimatter, dark matter, unified force and warping must be the correct way forward.
But now these four paths, human civilization is still a layman.
The so-called progress is still limited to the roads that have been proven in the past. There is no real revolutionary innovation, it is just taking the previous road further.
Perhaps the current level is enough to defeat the spherical battleship.
But if the Compound Eyes really still have a fleet, they will still be defeated.
Chen Feng only prepared for the worst. He also wanted to obtain further innovative cross-era weapons and disruptive scientific research results.
He believes that he must return free thought to mankind, and only in this way can the next revolutionary progress be achieved.
Chen Feng doesn't know where this progress is heading.
But based on his understanding of the universe, he speculated that if lower civilizations could achieve qualitative changes in a certain technology, the qualitative gap would be offset by the quantitative gap.
For example, a low-level civilization has mastered an ultra-convenient and ultra-fast method of moving a spaceship, which is so fast that compound-eyed people cannot catch it, and can even pass through the solar system barrier, so it can save the fire.
Then this lower civilization has the qualification to survive freely in the universe.
Now Chen Feng has not seen this hope, so he is not satisfied with the status quo.
He is not satisfied with himself, Lu Xianfeng, Na Wei Lun, Dong Shan, Ou Qinglan and Schroeder, the leaders of major systems.
But he is still not in a hurry. Since there is conclusive evidence that "Never Walk Alone" can appropriately eliminate the risk of civil war, he can indeed implement a relatively extreme gu-raising tactic next time.
He no longer designates any target to try to infiltrate across time, and no longer hopes that he can drop a great leader from the air.
First weaken your own sense of existence, and then preserve the concept of survival of the fittest and leave it to future generations to make their own choices.
Chen Feng remembered that when he and Zhong Lei were chatting a long time ago, they had discussed the topic of whether to save Yue Fei or not.
At that time he was trapped by this problem.
Zhong Lei said:
"History can always correct itself, and humans can always find solutions to problems.
Don't think of yourself as so important and civilization as so fragile.
You think too highly of yourself and underestimate the power and inertia of civilization.
If Yue Fei really caused unfavorable turbulence, wouldn't it be enough to do something else to eliminate the negative impact he left behind?"
At that time, Chen Feng thought he understood what he said, but now it seems that he only half understands it.
History went full circle, and Chen Feng's thoughts moved forward, turning a corner, and then passing through nine twists and turns. In the end, his understanding of civilization returned to the starting point that Zhong Lei once said.
Give true freedom to civilization and future generations.
Don't think too highly of yourself, and give the right of choice back to everyone.
Ignite everyone's wildness and return true freedom to thought.
Only in this way can the power of individuals and groups be further brought into play, and civilization can bloom like weeds sprouting from the ground.
We do not deny the importance of great leaders, but in addition to following great leaders, everyone should also follow themselves. You are your own leader.
Only such a world can be free and unrestrained, full of hope, and filled with infinite possibilities.
It may be a complete loss, but a win can also be a beautiful win.
Because Chen Feng has vaguely touched the rules of the universe.
The universe has such a long history and is so vast that it has infinite possibilities.
As an emerging civilization, humans must face the cruel reality.
This reality is that there must be a higher-order civilization in the universe that was born earlier than humans, is more powerful, and is extremely hegemonic.
The high-level civilization currently seen by human beings is those with compound eyes.
Humanity will not allow another race of intelligent life that is reproductively isolated from humans to exist on Earth or in the solar system.
After humans took over the Earth, the most diligent thing they did was to continuously scan and study the Earth and the solar system, and observe whether there was another intelligent civilization nearby.
This is the natural instinct of civilization to protect itself.
If one day we find another intelligent civilization that is reproductively isolated from each other within the territory that we rule, will we chat with each other about everything from poetry to philosophy of life?
Obviously, we only have butcher's knives.
Because, although the universe seems infinite, within our own territory, our resources are always limited.
The same goes for the compound-eyed civilization.
Once upon a time, mankind's domain was the earth.
Assuming that the compound-eyed civilization is really that powerful, its area of control is the Milky Way or the Virgo Supercluster.
Before human civilization crosses the level 1 civilization and has the ability to go out of the solar system, in the eyes of the compound-eyed civilization, human beings may just be macaques who can pick up stones to hit walnuts.
But if human civilization masters the technology to completely harness the energy of a planet, and can create a large spacecraft with long-distance capabilities, it can enter the next star system and establish a colony.
Then just wait for the macaques to invent monkey language and carve the first sentence on the stone slab: "The macaques will never be slaves, and the footprints of the macaques will surely travel across the Milky Way."
At this time, perhaps the first thing all humans in the world have to do is to make the macaque population disappear from the universe.
This is the objective reality of the universe.
Might takes all.
But the weak are not born to be slaughtered.
The infinite possibilities of the universe are not limited to the fact that weak civilizations must die. Weak civilizations still have the slightest possibility of creating miracles.
It is even possible that the Compound Eye Civilization got some kind of opportunity and overthrew the previous ruler, thus achieving its current status.
In short, it will definitely be difficult for the weak to break through the cruel gradient created by the universe with a time difference of thousands of millions of billions of years and break through the technological barriers, but there is definitely hope.
Even if this hope is one in a billion, it still exists.
Chen Feng now has this hope.
Civilization is groping, and so is he.
What Chen Feng has to do now is still a process of trial and error.
Anyway, he is used to losing and can afford to lose.
After half a day, all the statues were demolished, leaving no one behind.
Almost at the same time, including the last military command meeting he held, the intelligence about the war in Chen Feng's memory was also carefully analyzed.
In the meeting on the previous timeline, he explained many key points orally.
This time, because Fanxing directly announced the memory scene, Chen Feng saved the trouble.
There are hundreds of thousands of military theory researchers at the Institute of Military Theory and Combat Command who have comprehensively and carefully analyzed his war memories, which is much more convenient than it is for him to summarize and talk about it himself.
After a long time, when the statue had been completely dismantled, Chen Feng entered the small conference room again.
There were less than ten people attending this meeting.
"How is the situation?" Chen Feng asked.
Naweilun opened the briefing and said, "General Chen, about one-third of the people have accepted the reality, but two-thirds of the people still need psychological intervention. Overall, almost everyone's working status has been affected by or
More or less impact. Think tanks and Fanxing have made comprehensive estimates. After one month, one-third of people will lose more than 50% of their working ability due to poor mental state."
Chen Feng asked: "Everyone?"
"Yes, including soldiers and scientific research staff, including... us." Naweilun looked around helplessly.
Although the result was already expected by Chen Feng, he sighed and waved his hand, "It doesn't matter, there are still more than ten months left. It is inevitable to have labor pains. I wrote an article, you can take it
Circulating it to the whole people can be regarded as my personal summary."
After Chen Feng finished speaking, he sent an article to everyone present, and then exited the conference room.
In this article, Chen Feng analyzes the reasons for the creation of thinking cocoons.
He once again placed all the blame on himself.
The source of everything is Him.
Back then, he created his own personality in order to gain leadership thinking in the future.
Chen Feng speculated that this idea was very strong after he left. He himself paid too much attention to thinking guidance and did a lot of behind-the-scenes operations involving his thoughts.
These operations lasted throughout his long life thousands of years ago.
He carved his personal traces deeply into the development of civilization.
These are details that are almost impossible to see in history books.
His influence slowly seeped out through a series of actions and spread, forming the current pattern.
Obviously, the current situation is not ideal.
People's hearts in this era are usable, but only superficially.
People's seemingly firm will is rootless, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people crying when the statue is demolished this time.
The world attaches too much importance to the importance of genetic arousal, and the ranking list has a more clear impact on the concept of mate selection.
The value of using genetic arousal to guide racial reproduction has been affecting all aspects of the world, ignoring the differences in personal thought.
This kind of value is too utilitarian and seems to achieve better results, but it is actually opportunistic.
Chen Feng's God of War plan is also an opportunistic move by the civilized leadership to obtain a powerful leader.
This is a very deliberate atmosphere of the times, created under self-anesthesia, striving for something, and forming an even larger information cocoon, which subtly restrains everyone's thinking and does not allow for different opinions.
sound.
This is the invisible warrior plan that covers everyone's head, and it is also opportunistic.
The four words opportunism have become the main theme throughout civilization.
The universe will never be kind to civilizations obsessed with opportunism.
The price of taking shortcuts is that true creativity cannot be born in restricted soil.
Because thoughts need freedom.
This freedom is not unlimited and should sometimes be controlled.
But there can only be one reason for people to give up their freedom, in order to gain greater freedom.
Human beings living freely in the universe are the freedom that human beings want.
Controllable and firm freedom, this is what Chen Feng wanted to pursue, but failed to do well this time.
He summarized his mistakes in this article.
Before Chen Feng didn't say anything, no one could escape from his overly dazzling personal aura and always thought that everything he did was right.
"This is my last self-dissection. If those people still haven't changed after reading this article, then... let's eliminate them. I believe they still have the spirit of sacrifice, and then all of them will be sent to the self-destructing battleships.
