Chapter 851: Confusing the cause with the effect

"You want to tell me...in the primitive period of our civilization, people from the angel civilization had contact with us?"

Commander Cao Yang could not accept that his civilization was the same as the current priest civilization, just like monkeys, contacting the angel civilization under surveillance.

As a supervisor, he felt it was natural.

But thinking from another perspective, he only felt desperate and suffocating.

"Although we don't want to admit it, this is normal reasoning."

"Myths and legends are not real, but to a certain extent they are also the history books of civilization. It's just that we used to consider them more from the perspective of cultural change, and completely ignored that this might be real history."

After all, primitive humans should not have such rich fantasies, right?

It's just that the concept of science makes everyone first deny the authenticity of exaggerated myths.

But putting aside prejudice, can we really regard myths as epics?

When the gods appear in front of us, when the myths and legends of two completely unfamiliar civilizations overlap in some way, we have to believe that this may be the truth of history.

"Of course, if the angel civilization and we have the same origin, then this coincidence is normal." The think tank made a joke that was not funny.

At least Commander Cao Yang had never thought of this possibility. He would rather believe in the existence of gods than believe that the two civilizations came from the same source.

"It seems that we need to re-understand the universe."

Commander Cao Yang felt that his mind was in a mess, and his firm scientific barriers collapsed bit by bit.

"Send your analysis back in full, and let those bastards in the cabinet worry about it."

Commander Cao Yang decided that he didn't need to think hard about this troublesome problem.

This kind of big thing is no longer something he can handle.

To put it mildly, it will affect the future of Blue Star civilization.

To put it more seriously, it can completely deny everything in the Blue Star Federation from the root.

He thinks the cabinet may have known similar conclusions.

But... the cabinet really doesn't know.

The intelligence of the pioneering command is relatively timely, and no one really studies mythology history.

That is, Commander Cao Yang faces the front line of angel civilization all day, and the mental pressure is extremely huge, so he will think about studying religious mythology.

Then he dug out a big thunder all of a sudden.

At this time, there are also people under the cabinet responsible for sorting out religious mythology, and even the information collected is more complete than Cao Yang's.

But the people who collected the information didn't take it seriously, and they didn't have permission to know the information related to the angel civilization, so they didn't associate it together.

When Commander Cao Yang's religious myth was transmitted back to the rear, the first reaction of the Minister of Defense was: Is Cao Yang too stressed out?

It's okay for ordinary people to be superstitious, but as a top figure in the Blue Star Federation, it's unreasonable for you to be superstitious.

He directly threw the information to the relevant subordinates for analysis, and didn't look at it in detail.

As for discussing it at the cabinet meeting, it was completely impossible.

Until... a uniformed staff officer hurried to the door of the Minister of Defense.

The secretary was about to remind him, but he was pushed open roughly.

The door was also pushed open.

The Minister of Defense was startled by the huge movement. Fortunately, there were no small activities today, otherwise it would be embarrassing.

"Minister, you need to see this document in person."

The Minister of Defense was actually a little annoyed. If everyone does things like this, will there be any rules?

However, the more unreasonable it is, the more serious the situation is. He didn't lose his temper, but read it as soon as possible.

After reading the beginning, he frowned. Wasn't this what he had thrown away earlier?

He read on patiently. It seemed that Cao Yang's report had some logic, and then there was the Ministry of National Defense's own analysis.

"... According to the comparison of historical documents, the myths of this civilization overlap with the angel civilization to a certain extent. The high similarity basically excludes the possibility of coincidence..."

Basically excludes the possibility of coincidence... Putting these together, he knew that this was already certain.

Maybe it was too shocking that no one dared to really draw the next conclusion.

He felt that this world was too strange. Was the scientific history that had lasted for thousands of years going to be overturned?

Don't think it doesn't matter. Every change in thought is enough to set off a huge wave.

There were as many people who died for religion thousands of years ago as there were people who died for science today.

Even within the cabinet, it might lead to division.

Of course, he himself was an absolute neutral and did not lean towards any side.

Rubbing his temples, the Minister of Defense waved his hand to signal everyone else to leave.

Then, he told his secretary: "Apply for an online cabinet meeting now and open the meeting channel directly."

He didn't want to wait even a second. This matter was so serious that everyone had to know it immediately.

Just half an hour before the cabinet meeting, Minister He of the Ministry of Commerce was reading a report.

This report was written by his private forces and borrowed some government resources, but it would never be known to outsiders.

The content of the report was that some artistic statues of Maple Leaf Mining were suspected to have the image of angel civilization.

This is not a trivial matter. To put it in depth, this may be a serious traitor incident, and he himself will be involved.

"Maple Leaf Mining should not be so stupid, right? If it is really an angel civilization insider, it should not be openly displayed."

He still had an impression of the artworks and sculptures of Maple Leaf Mining, which he had seen when he first visited.

Maple Leaf Mining was not so much about promoting it everywhere, but it certainly was not hiding it.

If there was really a problem, who would dare to be so high-profile?

Minister He even thought that he had to ask about it, but suddenly he received a request for an online cabinet meeting.

He temporarily put down the report in his hand and connected to the online meeting.

To be honest, this was the first time he had encountered such an urgent online meeting.

The first thing he saw was the serious face of the Minister of Defense.

He felt a shudder in his heart at that time, could there be another change on the front line?

In the cabinet, the Minister of Defense is concurrently the Minister of Defense, and it is difficult for people to associate other possibilities with a meeting that he could hold in a hurry.

Before everyone arrived, the Minister of Defense sent a document to Minister He of the Ministry of Commerce.

The latter did not speak, but opened it and read it directly.

After reading the beginning, his first reaction was the same as the Minister of Defense at the beginning, this is not a joke, right?

To be honest, when he saw this kind of thing normally, he would definitely throw it away as a small essay.

But in this kind of situation, the Minister of Defense would not joke unless he was crazy.

He was crazy... He also admitted it.

After quickly watching it for the first time, Minister He gritted his teeth and said nothing, then turned around and watched it for the second time.

After watching it for the second time, everyone else also came.

Basically, everyone had watched it once, and they already knew what was going on.

But the virtual conference room was silent, and no one spoke.

"Everyone... Tell us what you think!" The chairman broke the silence.
