The maturity of the [Ideological Imprint] technology led Lü Yongchang to turn his attention to the group of lizardmen who were still "doing nothing".
In a star system 27 light-years away from Kepler-452, the lizard people "live" on starships.
These dilapidated starships, some large and some small, wander through the stars, while others operate in synchronous orbits with planets.
good.
Unlike the Talodan civilization, the Eugene civilization did not choose to settle on the planet.
Even if the planet was carefully selected, its environment is 90% similar to that of their parent planet.
As for the reasons... one aspect is the issue of habit.
As a space pirate civilization, the Eugene civilization has been accustomed to wandering in the vast universe since the moment it left its home planet.
Their long wandering experience made them completely forget what it felt like to live on a planet.
On the other hand, Emperor Eugene still harbored a sliver of hope.
Sooner or later, it will get an opportunity to lead a small fleet to escape this dark and hopeless prison.
In Emperor Eugene's eyes, this star system was a cage, a cage that imprisoned the Eugene civilization!
Human civilization sends supplies regularly, but those supplies are not enough to meet the needs of all the Eugenes!
This was originally an initiative of the Sociology Department.
They were trying to use hunger to show the plundering lizardmen that only by engaging in production and business activities could they obtain sufficient resources.
However, this measure was not very effective.
Only the lowest-ranking lizardmen suffered from hunger.
They are numerous, but they have no voice.
In the star system assigned to the Eugene civilization, they not only had to endure hunger, but also faced the constant threat of being canned.
As a result, the population of the Eugene civilization has been slowly declining during this period.
Eugene's response truly astonished the academicians and researchers in the Sociology Department at the time.
They tried countless measures, but none of them yielded much result.
The Eugene civilization gradually declined over time.
In a sense, this subordinate civilization not only failed to create any value for human civilization, but even hindered it!
Emperor Eugene was happy with this, while simultaneously "playing dumb" and secretly "making small moves".
Of course, these little tricks couldn't fool Zero.
After the fleet's central computer was taken over, every move of the entire Eugene civilization was under Zero's surveillance, including the Eugene Emperor's "naive" escape plans.
In a zero assessment, Emperor Eugene's actions did not even increase the risk value of the Eugene civilization!
Around this star system, there are tens of thousands of probes, as well as a small patrol fleet consisting of shipborne drones.
Their combat strength is weak.
To civilizations of the same level, a star system with such defensive capabilities is like a slightly larger rock on the roadside.
But for the Eugene civilization, this level of defense was more than enough to shatter any conspiracy!
Just as Emperor Eugene continued indulging in futile fantasies, a tachyon communication message arrived at his flagship.
...
Free gene enhancement programs?
Emperor Eugene stared at the screen with a look of suspicion, his orange-yellow vertical pupils filled with confusion.
Human civilization...is that really so kind?
It had heard that the pandaren had spent a lot of credits to obtain a gene enhancement program tailored for them by human civilization.
How could the Eugene civilization obtain such a good thing for free?
There is no free food in the desert.
This is a saying that has been passed down in the Eugene civilization.
Thinking of this, Emperor Eugene shook his head and subconsciously raised his hand to refuse the kindness from the Human Union Academy of Sciences.
Another new message appeared on the screen.
Emperor Eugene narrowed his eyes slightly, his orange-yellow vertical pupils quickly shrinking into a straight line.
"As a price, the Eugene people who accept the transformation need to contribute their labor for a period of ten years..."
It murmured those words to itself.
Has human civilization not yet given up on its plans for transformation?
Emperor Eugene gave a disapproving sneer.
They're not like those useless bunch of Talodan, who only dare to stay on the planet and farm!
The Eugene civilization is destined to belong to the stars!
Thinking of the scenes from the interstellar war, a fiery fervor suddenly rose in Emperor Eugene's vertical pupils.
But after thinking about its current situation, it suddenly sighed and slumped into the chair.
After much deliberation, it responded to the message.
It had already decided to send those canned goods reserves to probe the situation.
If everything is true, then the Eugene civilization can take this opportunity to strengthen itself.
...
Eugene Civilization Gene Modification Project.
Without a doubt, this is definitely fake.
It was merely bait to lure Emperor Eugene.
Its true essence lies in conducting the "thought imprinting" experiment on the Eugene people.
"Professor, what do you think the content of the 'thought imprint' should be?"
Inside the biology lab, Mao Zhengzhi looked at the holographic image in front of him and frowned slightly.
Within the holographic projection, a series of suggestions were displayed regarding the content of the "Thought Imprint" branding.
One proposal was to directly change the fundamental mindset of these reptilians, completely correcting their deep-rooted predatory mentality.
At first glance, it seems pretty good.
But this was the first proposal that Lü Yongchang rejected.
The reason is simple.
A civilization like Eugene that only engages in production and business activities is of little value.
Upon hearing Mao Zhengzhi's question, Lü Yongchang slightly raised his eyelids and scanned each proposal on the projection screen once more.
A thoughtful glint appeared in his eyes.
Clearly, this is not a decision he can make lightly.
We must preserve the original potential of the Eugene civilization while also ensuring that they willingly engage in production and business operations...
Lu Yongchang's eyes narrowed as his gaze fell on a proposal.
He held up his finger and tapped it lightly: "This one will do."
