The beginning of the ninth timeline was indeed infinitely good.

With the help of salvation and the "Five Hundred Years Plan", mankind has made remarkable progress and achieved unprecedented great strides. However, in the end, the war in the solar system was defeated without any chance of fighting back.

It seems that the fight was going back and forth, but in fact, every link in the war was irreversibly pushing mankind into the abyss of despair.

The ZS bacteria was too powerful.

The technological progress of mankind did not provide any substantial help in the fight against the ZS bacteria.

The humans in this timeline did have the opportunity to change the situation.

For example, strictly implement the protection policy formulated by Lai Wenming and never come into contact with the ground.

Theoretically, it is possible for humans not to be controlled.

Then as long as the possibility of ZS humans being born is cut off, the overwhelming advantage in technology will not be wiped out.

This is what Chen Feng concluded immediately. This is the most obvious mistake made by the human leadership this time.

The second wrong decision is that humans should be more decisive in destroying the earth's ecology.

Since we have abandoned our homeland, we should abandon it more decisively.

The third wrong decision was made earlier.

Humans should not leave so many people in the solar system.

There are several different hypothetical situations here.

Assuming that the dome is destined to land in the solar system, more people should have left.

But the dome itself is a tool mastered by the compound eyes, and it has also left the solar system and gone to the neighboring galaxy.

Theoretically, if humans distribute population and resources relatively evenly among the colony galaxies in the Orion Arm, there is a chance that the clade will "suffer from difficult-choice syndrome" and move the solar dome to other places.

Or, even more extreme, they can deliberately concentrate resources to create a larger galactic civilization in other galaxies, specifically to attract firepower and be targeted by the solar dome.

The probability of success of this trick is not high, after all, what Voyager 2 exposed was the coordinates of the earth.

If humans can be compared to cancer, the clade can be compared to targeted drugs.

When the clade begins to act, it will be the first positioning of the targeted drug, and the target will inevitably be only the solar system.

Unless... a larger and more dangerous lesion is found in the human body of the universe.

Chen Feng's judgment is that if the super-advanced civilization has a great understanding of the human body and the solar system, it will most likely understand the potential of humans in the solar system, the mother planet environment.

It goes without saying that the super-advanced civilization and the compound-eye civilization attach great importance to the solar system, otherwise they would not have used huge resources to create ZS bacteria in the solar system to destroy the mother planet.

But if humans deliberately leave colonized galaxies outside with a comprehensive civilization level that exceeds that of the solar system, it may cause the compound-eye and super-advanced civilizations to make a wrong judgment and mistakenly think that the colonized galaxy is more suitable for human development.

So if the time is right, the colony ships deliberately go outside the solar dome to expose information, then it is possible to attract the dome away.

That would give people in the solar system true freedom. After Xie Laiwenming matured and Sergei was born, human civilization in the solar system could have created more.

In Chen Feng's cognition, after all, facts have proven that humans have the greatest potential in the physical laws and cosmic environment of the solar system.

Even if it's just a gamble, it's worth it.

In short, leaving a huge population of 16 billion people is definitely a mistake.

These three most significant mistakes eventually condensed into the result of the end of the solar system today.

The generation of world government leaders represented by Hua Zhongyun missed many opportunities to make the right choice.

Are these people too stupid?

Not necessarily.

Are these people not conscious enough?

Not necessarily.

The so-called correct choice seems simple, but when the decision-making group is enlarged to the entire civilization, and the process is extended to hundreds of years of long history, many seemingly accidental things have become historical inevitability.

The ultimate logical source of the three major wrong decisions made by humans returns to Chen Feng and the salvation he personally created.

Chen Feng's original intention of creating the salvation was to facilitate the strict implementation of the "Five Hundred Years Plan".

However, in the nearly five hundred years of evolution from the 21st century to the 25th century, while completing its basic tasks, the salvation has also formed an overly strong control force invisibly.

A mind cocoon that Chen Feng hated deeply appeared. It seemed to be only for saving the world, but in fact it was radiating and affecting the whole civilization in all aspects.

Chen Feng tried to weaken his own influence and expand the scale of saving the world. The purpose was to shatter his personal image, dilute his own achievements, and break the mind cocoon's control over civilization.

But unfortunately, as a dragon slayer, he eventually became the most powerful evil dragon.

This time, the cocoon created by him is stronger and more stubborn.

Compared with his unintentional mistake in the eighth timeline, his actions this time have become active and personally adding bricks and tiles to this cocoon.

Behind the appearance of the three wrong decisions, there is another deeper core error.

The salvation of the world was too superstitious about Chen Feng, and their thinking was trapped in the boundaries set by Chen Feng. They should have questioned more and thought more independently.

Since the means of the compound eyes can change from "Song of the World" to S bacteria, and then to Z bacteria, then of course it can also change into something else.

This is a very obvious truth.

But so many smart people didn't think of it, or even if someone thought of it, the individual's unique opinions were not respected.

Therefore, the merits and demerits of the salvation of the world are divided into three parts.

Although the salvation of the world promoted the development of science and technology for five hundred years, and even led to miracles for twenty years, it became the key factor leading to the destruction of the human race in the solar system at a critical moment.

The savior tried very hard, but his direction was not right and he ended up playing an ignominious role.

They became the fatal factor that influenced the outcome of the war.

Chen Feng believed that he had no right to blame others, because it was the ideology he left behind that formed the absolute control.

The way of thinking of saving the world came from him. It seemed democratic, but in fact it did not tolerate other voices.

For example, the Euthanasia Plan, which looked beautiful, seemed to have completed the sublimation of species on the surface, but it erased the genes that were most likely to have different consciousnesses.

Social stratification should be the natural result of countless individuals' independent choices. The rulers should not draw such strong boundaries in terms of region and system.

If the euthanasia plan is not adopted, perhaps the progress of science and technology will be a little slower, but when deciding whether to leave the solar system, perhaps some of the gene carriers left behind by the euthanasia people can take more people with them through persuasion and example?

That creates another new possibility.

The mistake at a certain stage becomes correct at another new stage.

This is the interesting part of civilization and history. Everything is dialectical and flowing.

Solidification is equal to failure.

Sergei realized all this in his later years.

This made Sergei very painful.

He admired Chen Feng so much that he didn't even want to question Chen Feng in his heart.

So Sergei made the decision on his own, and swore to quit saving the world before he died, just to vent his final dissatisfaction.

But from beginning to end, he never blamed Chen Feng.

Sergei knew that his doubts were still doubts in the coffin, and he was unwilling to break the control of the coffin himself.

Sergei believed that he had no right to blame Chen Feng, and no one in the history of human civilization had the right to do so.

Only Chen Feng himself was qualified to repent when he saw this ending.

This was Sergei's highest belief.

Chen Feng sighed and said, "Sure enough, I had thought of it a long time ago. The result of absolute control is collapse. This was clearly my original concept, how could I... forget it quietly?"

Relying on hidden power to forcibly control everything, including people's ideology, seems to be a shortcut to promote the progress of civilization, and it has almost achieved the appearance of rapid progress.

But progress is progress, and civilization has become fragile invisibly. The social structure only seems to be solid, but in fact it has fallen into a dangerous situation.

When there is a problem with the nature of the system, then civilization loses the ability to correct itself and the tolerance rate becomes lower.

Ideology, these four simple words, have always been the core of the development of human civilization.

Primitive society has its own ideology, for example, good hunters are respected.

Feudal society has

its own ideology, such as the divine right of kings and the emperor's great grace. Capitalist society and communist society also have different ideologies.

It is unpredictable and omnipresent, affecting every decision made by every person in society in every aspect.

It is a collection of civilized consciousness, which can be led by a certain group of people, but should not and cannot be absolutely controlled.

It should ultimately be a relatively reasonable choice made more actively by group consciousness after the natural evolution of productivity and human species.

If the leaders of the times and great men in history who lead civilization forward hold the steering wheel of the ship, ideology is simply the river channel for the ship to pass.

It is not ruled out that a certain group of people or a certain system makes unreasonable choices and diverts the channel.

This kind of system is bound to be eliminated, just as the Yangtze River and the Yellow River have changed their course many times in history.

The waterway has been wrong before, but the waterway error will not affect the water circulation in the atmosphere.

As long as there is an atmosphere on the earth, and there is rain, snow and frost, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River will always flow into the sea.

The problem with saving the world is that before Chen Feng himself has touched the truly perfect system, the savior successors first deified him in their hearts, and then arrogantly thought that he had understood it, and regarded everything he left behind as an unshakable golden rule, which then turned into a shackle.

This shackle is everywhere.

Using the system to control time can indeed achieve extremely deceptive and rapid progress, but the shortcomings cannot be ignored.

The price Chen Feng paid this time was heavy, but the harvest in experience and lessons was also rich.

If you are wrong, admit it and make improvements in the future.

He decided to try to find a more compromising method next time, and no longer ignorantly try to control everything by force.

He has already come up with a more comprehensive idea.

His direction will not change, insisting on science and technology as the primary productive force and core element, supplemented by literature and art.

But in the development of science and technology, he will use a more flexible way to hide knowledge in the institutions, and gradually throw it out in a triggering way according to the changes in the external environment.

Only let himself and Jiushi serve as a treasure trove of knowledge waiting to be continuously excavated by others, and no longer let Jiushi control anyone with force.

In addition, at the level of science and technology, some phased things can be put aside and put aside for a while, and only the preliminary experimental conclusions need to be completed, and large-scale manufacturing is not necessary.

Some phased technological changes may not be worth being fully popularized.

For example, the first generation Aspirer.

In the sixteen years from 2351 to 2367, humans sent a total of eleven first generation Aspirers and sent out 330,000 people, which seems good.

But it cannot be denied that these eleven first generation Aspirers consumed a lot of productivity and scientific research power that could have been used to cultivate the first generation of Dyson membranes.

Chen Feng hoped that humans would only develop and conduct technical verification, but would not waste manpower and material resources to manufacture the first generation Aspirer, but would invest more of the limited resources at that time into the Dyson membrane project.

Even the second generation Aspirer was not manufactured, so the third generation Dyson membrane would have a chance to be completed before 2390.

The first one to be put into production was the third generation Aspirer that could accommodate 300,000 people.

Then, in the eleven years from 2390 to 2401, the third generation of strivers can completely make up for the slow pace of colonization in the previous decades, and let the leadership decide whether the civilization should migrate as a whole.

The leadership that makes this decision will naturally be replaced by the group before Hua Zhongyun, and there may be different results, which may meet Chen Feng's expectations.

Chen Feng really wants to know, if the compound eye civilization is really fooled and puts the dome in another galaxy, how good will it be to feel complete freedom after he comes here?

In the first five hundred years of civilization, there are many details that can be improved, which are much more than the negative impact of Fatty on the Ouhe Group.

Chen Feng stood up, walked out of the reading room, first walked around Sergei's cloning workshop, and then looked around the underground base.

The first thing he wondered was whether this underground base had aerospace capabilities.

If it was possible, then it would be a good choice to just drive away from the base.

Unfortunately, it didn't.

Sergei had no intention of leaving the solar system, he just wanted to hide deeper and safer, so he didn't equip the underground base with space navigation engines and space-grade shields.

The main aspects of the performance of the underground base are stability, endurance and latency.

After giving up the idea, Chen Feng turned his attention to the inventory of materials, the operation of other equipment and facilities, and the intelligent computer core that supported Xiaowei, thinking about how to move Xiaowei away.

Chen Feng spent about three days to complete an in-depth survey of the underground base, and then started work.

He successfully found many spare small quantum intelligent cores with basic functions, as well as some small engines and shield generators.

He first assembled a shuttle with an energy shield, a single transport capacity of 1,300 tons, and a load space of 1,500 cubic meters according to the instructions. He

finally had complete modular parts to use, as well as instructions to read!

Of course, he used to be at a loss even with the instructions in hand.

But this time, Master Chen has spent nearly a year making thousands of short-circuit explosions and has evolved into Master Technician Chen.

He could handle the bulk parts in the past, and now the semi-finished modules are even more of a piece of cake.

Chen Feng spent four days taking away most of the things that should be taken away from the underground base.

Including a large number of reserve renewable bio-batteries, small and medium-sized engines, intelligent chips, various detection instruments and communication equipment, and two sets of galactic armor made by Sergei himself.

It's a pity that he didn't find reliable medium and large weapons. Most of them are small-powered individual equipment, such as medium-range energy hand cannons, burst snipers, inspiration-type individual mechanical beetle arrays, etc.

In short, everything that can be used is full.

He used the inventory of the secret base to upgrade a lot of configurations on the Morning Breeze II, making the internal and external layout of the Morning Breeze II, which seemed to be crudely made in a small workshop, much neater, more comprehensive, and more detailed.

Most importantly, as he continued to add intelligent chips, the intelligence level of the Morning Breeze II gradually improved, and his workload when operating the ship personally was greatly reduced.

On September 16, 3020, Chen Feng stood in a very large house in the central area of ​​the underground base, lost in thought.

A cube with a side length of ten meters was suspended in the air in front of him.

The surface of the cube was translucent, and the light spots inside were flickering.

One after another, quantum arcs spread out from the squares on the cube. There were one hundred on each side of the cube, a total of six hundred.

The other end of the arc was connected to the hemispherical protrusions on the four walls of the room.

This is Xiaowei's quantum intelligent computer core.

He wants to take it away.

Once dismantled, the entire underground base will gradually lose control and quickly collapse.

Chen Feng pressed the button, Xiaowei fell into a short sleep, and the hanging arm slowly stretched down from above, and the intelligent computer core was sent into the maintenance pipeline.

In twenty minutes, the AI ​​core will enter the cargo hold of the transport shuttle.

In forty minutes, the outer shield of the underground base will collapse.

The base will be engulfed by molten magma.

Chen Feng walked out and came to the workshop.

He first walked to the last two life support capsules that were still filled with nutrient solution and took a look.

Fredes Shelgai's most recent comprehensive physical examination showed that he was gradually showing signs of genetic collapse.

In two or three years at most, Fredes will follow the old path of his predecessors, travel to the ground via a small shuttle, and then wander aimlessly on the ground until he dies somewhere at some time.

According to Shergey's preset program, when Fredus leaves, one of the two life support capsules will start the next round of artificial cultivation of cloned embryos.

If one fails, the other will start immediately.

Now that Chen Feng has taken Xiaowei's intelligence core, these two embryos will not be born.

But Chen Feng has no guilt.

He had done a routine check before, and the DNA in the stem cells stored in these two life support capsules had long been a mess, and it was impossible to be cultivated into shape.

The operation records show that before Fredus Shergey was born, cloning cultivation had failed twenty-three times in a row in five years.

"Freds, come with me, it's time to leave here."

Chen Feng said to Freds who was still in a daze.

The boy looked at Chen Feng blankly, "Come with me?"

Bang.

The next second, Chen Feng knocked the boy unconscious, carried him on his shoulders, and walked out.

It was late at night outside.

The newly renovated Morning Breeze II was parked on the mountain range, and the mechanical arm was carefully moving Xiaowei's intelligence core inside.

Ten minutes later, the last piece of the puzzle of the Morrowind II will be assembled.

Then, it will be time for him to leave.

There is only one last thing left to do, to restore communication with the colony.
