Chapter 188 Shocked! Stunned! Weird civilization point allocation mode!

[Repeat it again. 】

["Eva" has been captured and the mission is over. 】

【……】

When the highest order from the command room of the flagship headquarters was clearly transmitted to the members of various departments of the ground forces, everyone roared with excitement and relief.

In an instant, the cheering shouts of human soldiers resounded throughout the rainforests on Pandora.

The Na'vi natives, who were so frightened that they were hiding deep in the jungle, couldn't help but tremble when they saw this, for fear that they would accidentally be discovered by these barbaric sky people.

The soldiers of the "Iron Hands" Legion Astartes in the Spirit Tree District still maintained a cold and cold attitude on the surface, but in fact, everyone was filled with joy in their hearts.

No one wants to be stuck in the quagmire of colonial wars. Being able to end the war as soon as possible is of course the best outcome.

"Alas!!"

Jack Wells was so excited that he hugged David next to him, smiled broadly at him, and said:

"Good boy, your performance in this operation is very good. You are even more ruthless than me. Maybe the higher ups will get you a team leader later."

This secret operation was a complete success, and everyone will be rewarded based on their merits.

As members of the Astartes advance team who are taking the lead, the company will definitely not treat them badly.

When he learned that he had the hope of becoming the team leader of the advance team, David couldn't help but grinned innocently and nodded excitedly.

He thought of his mother, Gloria Martinez, and how happy she would be if she knew that he had succeeded and became an officer in the company's army!

Under the spiritual tree.

After hearing the prompt from the headquarters, V, like everyone else, breathed a deep sigh of relief.

This time he was the one responsible for extracting "Eva" from the access matrix, so no one bore more pressure than him.

After seeing that everything was proceeding smoothly as planned, V felt that his extremely heavy shoulders were finally relieved of the 10,000-ton shackles.

'Fortunately...everything went well! ’

V said with great emotion in his heart.

In the Infinity fleet group near low-Earth orbit, staff from various departments couldn't help but burst out in celebration like a roaring mountain and a tsunami.

They happily hugged each other and bumped fists to vent their long-repressed emotional impulses.

This is undoubtedly a great day in human history!

However, the staff in the fleet group were not happy for long, but after a few seconds of celebration, they immediately returned to their posts and continued to work.

Although the Na'vi god "Eva" was arrested, the post-war work was equally busy.

They must do the follow-up processing.

Inside the main command center of the starship.

"Lucy, I think this day will go down in history!"

With a relaxed smile, Morgan Blackhand looked at Lucy, whose expression was still cold, and said, "We have only been preparing for this colonial war for three years."

"Before our fleet officially set off, I originally thought that this war would last at least half a year."

"But I didn't expect that it took us less than a month to end this massive war."

"What a surprise!"

When Morgan Blackhand said this, he couldn't help but shake his head and smile. This war ended too quickly, so fast that he couldn't believe it.

Because if calculated strictly based on the fighting time between the two sides, the battle between the ground forces and the Na'vi lasted less than 24 hours!

In other words, the interstellar colonization war that all mankind spent three years preparing for, in the end, did not even take a full day.

It feels a little bit better, but I still have some unfinished thoughts.

He originally thought that LA Company's troops would use the Infinity starship to wipe out hundreds of thousands of alien indigenous bugs.

But in fact, the total number of Na'vi killed by human soldiers may not be as high as a small-scale battle between the company and the rebels.

There will only be a few thousand Na'vi people until they die.

"Morgan, this outcome is the best outcome for both the winner and the loser of the war."

Lucy was not as relaxed and cheerful as Morgan. She had already known the outcome of this war and it would be a one-sided situation.

Since the victory or defeat has already been determined, of course it is better to end it as soon as possible. If things change later, we are afraid that the company's troops will fall into a state of endless war.

In Lucy's opinion, the best mode of war is to decide the outcome in one battle, just like a samurai duel, where life and death are only determined by the flash of swords and shadows.

Li Ang can exchange for the highest war reward at the lowest cost of casualties, which is undoubtedly the best choice for everyone.

"Yes, no one wants the war to continue forever." Morgan Blackhand nodded with approval.

He had also served in the army and knew how horrific war can be in destroying the human will.

In many cases, wars only lead to lose-lose outcomes.

While Lucy and Morgan were having a casual conversation.

Li Ang, who is in the center console, has had a long conversation with Pandora's god "Eva" through the matrix device!

In the matrix space, the scene presented is still a blank and unmarked world, with no height, distance, or left, and only the simplest "white".

At this moment, Leon stood in front of the conscious life "Eva" of Pandora, like an omnipotent God.

But Leon did not show the arrogant attitude of a winner, but negotiated and communicated with Eva calmly.

Under the concrete influence of the matrix, Eva at this time was like a tree stripped of bark, leaving only rough roots and slender tree meridians.

Not long ago, this collective consciousness life that gathered all the life consciousness data of Pandora told Leon many unknown secrets of this planet in detail.

Almost the same as Leon's previous guess, "Eva", the planetary consciousness life, was indeed naturally generated by Pandora.

It is not a "tool" used by some advanced alien civilization to colonize Pandora.

Such a factual result is exactly what Leon wants to see.

After all, he doesn't want to challenge an alien colonization copy, and he has to continue to challenge the big boss of the second stage like playing a soul game.

Unless it can explode the gold coins of other aliens!

‘Symbiotic relationship…’

Li Ang said thoughtfully.

After Eva’s self-report, he learned that Pandora was not completely controlled by it, that is to say, Pandora was not a puppet planet.

The relationship between Pandora and Eva is actually the most common symbiosis in nature.

They are a pair of inseparable communities of interests!

Pandora has formed a sustainable collective consciousness network system for Eva through the “spiritual tree”, animals, plants, and intelligent creatures, the Na’vi indigenous people.

Eva relied on this consciousness growth and evolution system to become the god of Pandora. It is almost omniscient and omnipotent, and can freely control the consciousness of all creatures on this planet.

Even when facing foreign colonial alien life, Eva has a way to brainwash and control consciousness to make it work for her!

In other words, Eva is the most terrifying “fangs and teeth” of Pandora.

Any alien invader who dares to look down on and ignore it will die on this beautiful planet and eventually become nutrients under its soil.

The purpose of Eva's existence is to protect Pandora from interference from outside civilizations.

But this is the only result...

It's a bit too normal. Li Ang always feels that something is wrong, but he can't tell where the problem is.

"So, the limit of your ability is just to control the consciousness of the creatures on this planet, and you can't cause any natural disasters such as earthquakes and ground fissures on Pandora."

Li Ang looked at Eva and asked tentatively.

[Yes, Pandora and I are actually independent individuals. Although I can control all the creatures on this planet, I can't let Pandora change its natural properties and laws for me. ]

[In fact, all my efforts are just to make Pandora continue forever. ]

[Even if it can't be forever, one day is one day, this is the meaning of my existence. ]

"Eva"'s voice is as ethereal as the cry of birds in the forest.

Even though it was imprisoned in this unknown space by Leon, it was still fearless and always maintained a dignified and elegant peaceful mood.

Eva, who had experienced, witnessed, and felt the birth and death of countless creatures, had long been accustomed to what life and death were like.

Even if she would be swallowed up by this terrible matrix and become its energy body in the next second, Eva would not feel the slightest fear.

It believed in the reincarnation of nature and knew that all things in the world would eventually move towards the inevitable death and end.

It was just that this time, it was its turn.

For the upcoming "death", Eva did not think it was something that surprised her or was worth being surprised about.

An alien civilization with a strong colonial power conquered the macro-conscious life form of Pandora through the matrix, a technological device that reduced the dimension and struck at the level of dimensionality.

This was enough to show that the person in front of it had the ability to control all the resources of Pandora!

And as the guardian of Pandora, he died without regrets.

After listening to Eva's confession, Leon nodded thoughtfully.

It seems that Morgan Blackhand's previous speculation was indeed too outrageous.

Even the bizarre idea of ​​the earth's crust cracking and spewing microorganisms and viruses has emerged.

This is not the Crazy Mountains of the Cthulhu worldview, where do so many viruses and microorganisms left by the evil gods from outside the domain come from.

"If I take you away, will there be another Eva on Pandora?"

Leon continued to ask Eva.

So far, the dialogue between Leon and Eva has been smoother than he imagined, and both sides are having a frank conversation.

There are no lies, no fraud, only sparks of thought between the two civilizations.

Perhaps the more transcendent life forms are, the less they are controlled by the instinctive emotions of the organisms, so Eva also maintained a calm attitude throughout the process when facing Leon's questions.

The meeting between the two was like a negotiation between old friends. There were no winners or losers, only two purest civilized individuals.

[Yes. ]

Faced with Li Ang's sincere question, Eva still told him the truth without reservation.

[Pandora has always had its own unique natural laws. Unless your civilization can reshape its original appearance and change its natural properties. ]

[Otherwise, even if Pandora has lost the collective consciousness network ‘Eva’, it will use the “spiritual tree” to regenerate a new Eva. ]

[It will take thousands of years to generate a new Eva, but it will eventually come back to this planet. ]

Hearing Eva’s overly frank and honest answer, Li Ang vaguely realized that the other party seemed to be very confident in the natural properties of Pandora.

It does not think that the technological level of human civilization can achieve the level of reshaping the planet.

But what a coincidence is that the most impressive technological point of human civilization is the “ideal city” construction project, and this technology can completely reshape the properties of a planet!

As long as Li Ang is willing, he can hollow out this planet from the inside out at any time and turn it into an ideal city like the earth.

However, in this way, Pandora has lost its strategic value as a resource area.

This is not the result that Leon wants to see. After all, this is not in his fundamental interests.

"If I uproot all the spiritual trees on Pandora, will the planetary consciousness life Eva continue to appear here?"

Leon tried his best to keep his tone calm and stable, and not to laugh like a villain.

[Yes. ]

[Any existing species on Pandora are produced by its natural properties, unless its natural properties are completely changed from the inside of the planet. ]

[For example, hollowing out the core of Pandora and changing the soil of this planet, but such a huge amount of engineering requires far more resources than you can get. ]

[Such a loss-making business, I believe you will not do this. ]

"Eva" even thinks from the perspective of humans and gives her own suggestions when answering Leon's questions.

And Leon also learned more comprehensively through Eva's answer how Pandora has been in existence for billions of years.

Pandora is a planet with relatively rich resources, but it is different from other resource planets.

Other resource planets are either inhabited by indigenous civilizations, and to obtain them, you must first conquer the local indigenous people.

Or they are already owned by someone else, and are resource areas of other advanced civilizations, so if you want to obtain them, you have to rely on your strength to snatch them.

Only Pandora is a traitor with the "rebellious" attribute. Not only will there be planetary consciousness life forms that interfere with the actions of the colonists.

It will also instigate all the creatures on this planet to besiege the invaders together.

Even if Pandora is conquered, it is not over yet. Eva will assimilate the consciousness of the invaders and continue to attack the colonists' interior in turn.

A resource planet like this, which is covered with thorns, has simply played the "disgusting" part to its heart's content.

'Fortunately, I upgraded the matrix, otherwise the colonist backstabbed by Pandora would be me! '

This is the first time in recent years that Li Ang has felt a little sweaty.

Isn't it just a different level? Are there ambushes everywhere?

The spirit tree will regenerate after it dries up.

Eva will eventually restart after her death!

No wonder the civilization on Pandora is just aboriginals who cannot complete interstellar colonization, but they can have such a harmonious and peaceful natural ecological environment.

It turns out that the natural attributes of Pandora are indeed very good with the god "Eva"!

The RDA Energy Company in the original book did not lose unfairly.

They really encountered a tough opponent.

"I didn't expect the water on your Pandora to be so deep. No wonder the Na'vi, as an indigenous civilization, have never been enslaved by other civilizations for billions of years."

At this moment, Li Ang couldn't help but secretly thank himself for being cautious and careful, otherwise he would have become a clown and fallen into Pandora, which is full of traps.

If he had just used the matrix to extract "Eva" for power generation from the beginning, and then left the human colonial forces to continue mining.

Then it won't be long before the "new Eva" born on this planet will brainwash all the soldiers of the human army and then regain the dominant position.

This time, after hearing Leon's sigh, Eva rarely continued to reply, as if it was deliberately hiding some information.

"Eva, if there is no colonization and invasion of our human civilization, what will your evolution end like?"

When Leon decided to temporarily leave the matrix space, return to reality, and continue to command the ground troops to make subsequent arrangements, he asked another question that had puzzled him for a long time.

Under normal circumstances, no civilization can always rely on its mother planet to keep the entire race alive.

Without opening the vast era of interstellar colonization, both the intelligent species on the planet and the planet itself will inevitably decline and die.

Pandora has a very strong xenophobic natural attribute to protect itself from the invasion of alien civilizations.

It also has a collective consciousness life form like "Eva" that is almost against the sky, and can attack and defend the consciousness of controlling all living things.

Despite these two incredible technological treasures, "Eva" just sits there on her home planet and has no intention of colonizing other planets.

Could it be that Eva really just intends to be a "hedgehog" that disgusts other civilizations and stays on a planet forever?

This is what has always been puzzling to Leon.

He doesn't believe that Eva can't see this!

In response to Leon's question, "Eva" thought for half a minute before reluctantly explaining to Leon a truth that shocked him.

[Our evolutionary end point is actually the same as your human civilization. One day we will leave our home planet and carry out interstellar colonization. ]

[But we will not develop our own technological civilization, but rely on the power of other civilizations to help us go to the vast universe. ]

[Any alien civilization that descends on Pandora will be assimilated by me over time. ]

[I extracted the consciousness and memory of many alien engineers and mastered their technological knowledge and cultural customs. ]

[When the technological points I have accumulated are enough to support the Na'vi to leave their home planet, it will be the time for us to start the colonial era. 】

As "Eva" finished speaking, Li Ang's expression became complicated.

But his inner emotions were more of shock and sudden enlightenment.

No wonder he always felt something was wrong, it turned out that the root was here!

This is the ultimate secret of Pandora!

As the god of Pandora, "Eva" never thought of relying on internal strength to achieve technological breakthroughs.

That is why the Na'vi natives on this planet always remain in the primitive tribal mode of civilization.

Its purpose is to attract the attention of advanced civilizations, and let them relax their vigilance against Pandora after observation, and rashly start colonization activities.

After a long time, Eva will reveal its original terrifying face and absorb the consciousness and memory of these alien engineers and scientists.

This is equivalent to using the scientific and technological knowledge of other alien civilizations to light up your own technology points!

This is really playing the pig to eat the tiger!

Thinking of this, Li Ang immediately went deep into Eva's internal database through the matrix program and conducted a careful search.

Soon, Li Ang searched for alien technology knowledge and information that did not belong to this planet in Eva's consciousness network database.

All these evidences show that what Eva said is true, and it is really using this method to carry out the iterative evolution of Pandora civilization!

'Good guy...'

Li Ang was almost dumbfounded, although these alien technology knowledge are almost useless to the current LA company.

But according to Eva's progress in collecting technology points, it can capture at most one more technology point of alien civilization to allow the Na'vi natives to ascend on the spot.

By then, Eva will transmit all the knowledge of alien engineers and scientists into their brains through the consciousness transmission of the "spiritual tree".

From the natives who can only draw bows and shoot arrows and howl everywhere, they evolve into cosmic people who can use guns, cannons, giant ships, and colonization spacecraft in just a blink of an eye!

As the god believed by the Na'vi, "Eva" will be transformed into "Omnissiah" of Pandora, controlling the consciousness of the Na'vi and opening its interstellar era.

This weird way of civilization evolution that makes people feel scalp tingling and back cold really makes Leon a little unsure of what to say.

What if the "new Eva" produced by the spirit tree absorbs the consciousness and memory of the engineers and scientists of LA Company and imitates the construction knowledge and technology points of Infinity.

Then Leon may be playing in other worlds of the heavens, and suddenly find that his ideal city has been attacked by the unethical Na'vi!

If it really comes to that step, Leon really doesn't know how to deal with it.

If he takes the way of level backtracking and forcibly flows back to stop all this, he will also lose a lot of existing technology points.

Fortunately, Leon is cautious and careful enough to eliminate such a big hidden danger for his giant enterprise empire!
