Chapter 1667: Chapter 647: Thanks to Old Tie for Delivering the Tree Network Passage [Monthly Ticket]
Shi Lin heard this and laughed, "Then you’re overthinking it. Mr. Ren would never submit to any power. If he simply wanted to live an ordinary life, if he didn’t have ideals of changing the status quo, why would we have left the Empire? What you’re suggesting is impossible. Mr. Ren would never leave the Empire only to find three masters to serve under again."
Hundred Emperors: "Don’t be stubborn! Don’t throw your life away for nothing now! Isn’t your current mindset exactly like the technical loyalty you once mocked me for?"
Shi Lin shook his head again, "You don’t understand. I’ve said it before, this is emotion, and it’s certainly not laughable technical loyalty; it’s idealism!"
Hundred Emperors finally seized the opportunity and asked the real question on his mind, "So what exactly is your shared ideal?"
Shi Lin pondered for a long time, then slowly said, "Mr. Ren never explicitly said it; we all came to our own understanding. My guess is, it’s to create a fair and peaceful world, a world where even the weak are cared for. A world where the descendants of the weak also have a fair competitive environment. Also, perhaps Mr. Ren believes that the four human branches need not be adversarial, because the universe is truly vast. We should unite and explore together, rather than be closed off in a single Ancient Disk Galaxy, fighting to the death."
This time it was Hundred Emperors’ turn to be puzzled, "Are you talking about unity? That’s too unrealistic. The adversarial relationships between the Mechanical Empire, us, the Pilgrims, and the Spirit Demon Race are also written into genetic instincts; this is technical hatred that cannot be let go. The Origin of Life will not allow us to unify peacefully, only when the four powers have fought until there is truly only one left, achieving absolute dominance, will it bestow all computational power to the final victor. And this victor can explore the universe’s mysteries with the Origin of Life, gain true eternity, and become a more powerful next-generation new civilization."
Shi Lin: "But now you three have formed an alliance."
"That’s just three strong ones banding together to crush the weakest with the least cost and fastest speed. Once the Mechanical Empire is destroyed, we three will still settle things with fists."
Shi Lin hesitated to speak again. He wanted to say, but back when I was still human, you formed a friendship with me and repeatedly betrayed the Ascendants. However, Shi Lin held back in the end, realizing that this blow would be too painful and the psychologically fragile Hundred Emperors might not withstand it.
Thus, Shi Lin decided not to chat sincerely and started lashing out again.
"Idiot! That’s your problem! You bunch of dirty, rotten insects, just follow your biological instincts and be the Founder’s slaves!"
Hundred Emperors was immediately enraged, "Insect! Is that how you talk to your dad?"
Shi Lin: "Shut up, dads don’t have ovaries!"
Hundred Emperors, "You do too!"
This tirade, it was quite enjoyable.
Hundred Emperors was very satisfied.
...
While the two argued there, Ren Zhong was furiously taking notes elsewhere.
As expected of Hundred Emperors, living long enough and having a high status within the Ascendants’ societal system, he provided tons of important intelligence.
At the same time, behind Shi Lin, out of Hundred Emperors’ sight, two enormous pipelines named medical supply conduits were connected to Shi Lin’s planet-sized body.
At this moment, one of these pipelines was efficiently supplying Shi Lin with nutrients.
The other was packaging and transporting out unfinished quantum life forms that Shi Lin created using the Mother Empress Ship body gifted by Hundred Emperors.
This quantum life belonged to instinctual creatures, without intelligence, not requiring the highest rank of ovary giant reproductive cells.
The role of quantum life was to quickly set up temporary Fold Jump Subspace Channels.
Next, the Red Blade Army will spend twenty years laying down an isomorphic Fold Jump Subspace Channel from the center of the garrison’s territory to the rear.
On the inside end of this channel, it will be a main road, then at 1.5 light years, it will branch out like petals into thirty-six paths.
These thirty-six paths will further extend forward like a network of tree roots and establish thirty-six exits in the ambush areas where Ma Xiaoling pre-planted the Space Dust Virus.
At that time, the Red Blade Army will mobilize en masse, relying on this isomorphic channel to appear on the outskirts of the United Expeditionary Army in just 0.3 years, implementing a counter-encirclement against enemies several times its size.
By then, the absolute main force Ascendants in the United Expeditionary Army will surely be severely damaged by the Space Dust Virus, losing combat capability.
This means the Red Blade Army’s opponents are essentially only two Wise Men and two Divine Level Demon Progenies—everything else is trash.
Hundred Emperors not only gave Shi Lin fungal spores but also assisted in developing the Alien Ore Life Synthesis Method, now offering quantum life technology as well, truly a lucky bearer of gifts, an "international friend" delivering fortune from afar!
