#1010 - Chapter 1010: Not a native of Earth? Shocking secret! Steal, progress 30%!
Daimon, Shuton, and Kaff entered a state of inactivity.
16 light-years away.
Chen Hao gave the sunglasses to Xia Qingmo, asking her to keep an eye on things from a bystander's perspective and to inform him immediately if anything happened.
In fact, it was unlikely that anything would happen.
After all…
Those three guys were in the basement.
In front of the brain-computer interface console, Chen Hao quickly completed the operation.
Shuton's memories had been transmitted from 16 light-years away, and he was about to import them into his own brain.
However, Shuton's memories weren't that extensive.
Importing them wouldn't take too long.
There wouldn't be a splitting headache, nor many after-effects.
While Chen Hao was importing the memories, Old Qian stood beside him the entire time.
As soon as the import was complete, Old Qian hurriedly asked, "Xiao Chen, how do you feel? Is there any…"
He stopped mid-sentence.
Old Qian noticed that even though the memory import was complete and Chen Hao had already sat up, he was in a daze.
"Xiao Chen!"
Old Qian was frightened and grabbed his shoulder, "How are you? Don't scare me!"
Had he gone mad?
Had he become an idiot?
Every time he imported memories, Chen Hao himself felt fine, but Old Qian was always a little worried, after all, Zhang Ling had driven many test subjects mad during his experiments—he was worried that Chen Hao might go mad too.
He didn't expect it to actually…
"Old Qian, I'm fine," Chen Hao shook his head.
"Then you…"
Old Qian breathed a long sigh of relief, frowning with a hint of reproach, "I thought something had happened with that expression you just had!"
Why make such a blank, dazed expression if nothing was wrong?
Was he deliberately trying to scare people?
"Old Qian, there's a secret…in Shuton's memories!" Chen Hao murmured.
The reason he had that dazed expression after importing the memories was because he had been stunned by a secret he uncovered while reading Shuton's memories.
"A secret?" Old Qian was taken aback.
On second thought, it made sense.
Admittedly, they had captured thousands of beetle warriors before, but they were all insignificant individuals.
Even the battleship captain was only equivalent to a senior colonel in rank, did he have the qualifications to know core secrets?
Shuton was different.
One of the three scientific leaders, second only to the Seven Elders.
It could be said.
Shuton was among the top ten individuals in the Hunter civilization, so it was normal for him to know some secrets.
"I wonder if you've ever heard a saying."
Chen Hao looked at Old Qian solemnly, "If Earth is the only place in the universe with intelligent life, that would be a very frightening thing."
"I've heard it."
"That…is impossible!"
Old Qian shook his head in surprise.
The universe was unimaginably large, and there must be other intelligent life.
But to say that most of the star systems around the solar system had intelligent life, the probability was too high.
It didn't make sense!
"Actually, our ancestors didn't belong to Earth," Chen Hao murmured.
"Huh?!" Old Qian was stunned.
"We can terraform Venus, with the technology of the Hunter civilization, do you think they could terraform a planet?"
"…"
With Old Qian's intelligence, he suddenly realized something.
Just like Chen Hao's dazed expression earlier, Old Qian's face was full of astonishment, "Are you saying…that humans first appeared in a star system near Gliese 832, and the Hunter civilization created ranches…"
Chen Hao learned a shocking secret from Shuton's memory!
Humans were not native to Earth.
Just as Old Qian guessed.
When the Hunter civilization first entered the interstellar age, they suddenly discovered a group of highly intelligent creatures living in a certain star system—the ancestors of Earth humans.
The key.
They also discovered that the intelligence of these highly intelligent creatures was much higher than their own.
It was just that their civilization was born later, so their technology couldn't compare to the Hunters.
Thus, the Ranch Plan was born.
The Hunter civilization used high technology, centered on the Gliese 832 star system, to terraform the habitable planets in the surrounding star systems, and then dispersed these highly intelligent humans onto the terraformed habitable planets.
Like ranching!
After many years, they would begin a full harvest.
Why wait so many years?
It was simple.
Human intelligence would increase with scientific progress, and it had to develop to a certain stage before its intelligence reached 'maturity'.
After all, the Hunter civilization's intelligence was equivalent to that of Southeast Asians, which wasn't particularly low.
If the intelligence of the livestock in the ranch didn't reach a certain level, they would be of no value to them.
In short!
Within hundreds of light-years around Gliese 832, only the Hunter civilization was an anomaly, and the rest were ranches of the Hunter civilization, and the highly intelligent life on them…had the same ancestors!
After listening to Chen Hao's explanation, Old Qian was dumbfounded.
"The Hunter civilization has more secrets!"
Chen Hao's expression was grave, "However, Shuton doesn't know the details."
He only knew that there was a bigger secret, but he didn't know the specific content of the secret.
Only the Seven Elders knew.
Of course, the secret at hand was shocking enough!
"Xiao Chen, what…are you planning to do?" Old Qian asked, returning to his senses.
"The others, we'll talk about later."
Chen Hao narrowed his eyes, his gaze filled with murderous intent, "First, we'll solve the immediate threat."
Too hateful!
Those damn bugs actually treated humans as livestock, raising them in various star systems.
…
Chen Hao reconnected with the sunglasses.
Importing Shuton's memory and chatting with Old Qian hadn't taken too long in total.
16 light-years away.
The three beetle warriors left the villa.
Among them, Chen Hao directly controlled Shuton, while Daimon and Kaff were controlled by AI, and the group went straight to the research institute.
Having already imported all of Shuton's memories, Chen Hao was indistinguishable from him.
What to do next?
Go to the project team under Shuton's name and get all the latest project data.
Not limited to projects under research.
All kinds of cutting-edge technologies that Shuton had access to, as well as countless theoretical knowledge, were all collected.
The whole process took more than a day.
The next day, in the evening.
When getting off work, about 30% of the Hunter civilization's technology, including the most cutting-edge part, had been obtained by Chen Hao.
After Shuton returned home, he claimed that he was too tired today and needed to rest well.
He was the absolute authority at home.
No one dared to question him.
No one dared to disturb him.
Back in the bedroom, Shuton immediately lay on the bed and entered a state of inactivity.
16 light-years away.
Chen Hao breathed a long sigh of relief.
He had finally 'lulled to sleep' Daimon, Shuton, and Kaff.
Damn it!
He was almost exhausted these two days!
Now, the virtual reality connected by the sunglasses would simultaneously present three perspectives: the one he personally controlled was presented as the main perspective, and the other two were sub-perspectives—he had to pay attention to all three at all times.
Although the AI system had learning abilities, it was not enough in some scenarios, and he had to switch to manual control.
Controlling Daimon alone was fine.
Controlling three…
Whenever the other two encountered some special scenarios, he had to put out the fire.
Exhausting!
Now, the problem came.
Importing Shuton's memory alone into his own memory, the capacity was not particularly large—he could import it quickly, and there were no side effects.
Now, he had obtained about 30% of the Hunter civilization's cutting-edge knowledge and technology.
The capacity was extremely large!
Once he imported the memory…
Not only would the import take a long time, but he would also have a splitting headache during the import process, and it would consume a lot of physical and mental strength, and he had to rest for a while—controlling three at the same time, where would he have time to rest?
