CHAPTER 310: CHAPTER 195: ABLE TO NEVER RETIRE_2

In fact, it was indeed so.

Becoming a Primordial Energy Battery is equally useful, just as becoming a laborer is useful, so at this moment, Chen Feng was not putting on an act. He even let go of the emotions deep in his heart and pressed the "Lie Detector," allowing everyone to feel his emotions.

Yet it was this kind of "sincerity" that made some of the Daike People struggle.

After all, becoming a "slave" is much better than becoming a "Primordial Energy Battery."

The former allows for self-possession and free thought, while the latter falls into eternal pain without even consciousness, possibly benefiting the enemy even more!

And some things that followed seemed to become their final straw.

Chen Feng waved his hand, and one after another, Daike People became one Primordial Energy Battery after another right in front of everyone. This Primordial Energy Battery device was extremely advanced, at least C6 Level technology, and all the Daike People could see clearly that those made into Primordial Energy Batteries were not ordinary beings but their powerful managers in Primordial Energy Mastery.

Without their managers, the shackles in their hearts were unlocked.

"It seems that some among you have already made your choice." Chen Feng looked at everyone and waved his hand again, "Take them away and handle them according to their choices."

Not just him, even those mere ten-year-old children could clearly feel the fear spreading.

Originally thought the Daike People were fearless, remaining stubborn unto death, but to succumb so easily to fear?

These children naturally understood that once fear spread within a group, once collapse occurred, it was often collective, hemorrhagic, and irresistible.

But it was too simple.

From beginning to end, Chen Feng hadn’t said much, hadn’t done much, simply and clearly leaving the choice to these people.

"I know." a child suddenly said, "It’s interest."

Many people looked at him.

"When personal interests conflict with the culture, morality, thoughts, and will that need to be adhered to, that’s when these things are most fragile. So General Chen didn’t do anything, just put the conflict out there, and someone would choose personal interests." the child said.

"That’s right." Chen Feng clearly heard these words, and a smile appeared on his face, "Of course, there is another reason, we truly don’t care how they choose, even if everyone upholds their culture, it won’t harm our interests because we are the victors."

Many children seemed to have some understanding.

Indeed, the other civilizations in the interstellar all have their own brilliant cultures.

And there are surely many cultures far more powerful than Human Civilization.

But such strength can only help them develop, help them grow stronger.

When victory and defeat have been decided, the strength of culture, however, means nothing.

This is one dark aspect of the interstellar.

It is also one of the things to be understood in today’s "spectacle."

When Shen Shi stayed where others couldn’t see him, watching these children leave, he could still hear the enthusiastic discussions of the children.

"Strong cultures still have an effect, the proportion of Daike People submitting is far lower than other civilized races."

"Culture determines potential."

"But General Chen is also right, potential is just potential, once lost, no kind of culture is meaningful."

"Strength is fundamental!"

"If those Daike People had a choice, they would probably choose to die quickly and happily, but unfortunately, they don’t even have the right to choose death."

"Have you noticed? The stronger the development of technology and civilization, the simpler some things become..."

"..."

Shen Shi listened to these intense yet calm discussions, hearing the continuous sharing of views and awareness from the next generation of humans.

Gradually, he couldn’t help but smile.

"What makes me most proud over the past ten years is these children." he voiced.

"Me too." Chen Feng laughed behind him, "Even though I slept for ten years, what makes me happiest after waking up is seeing these children."

Other generals also nodded one after another.

It was evident that their insights were profound.

The changes brought to Human Civilization by technology are not merely about being stronger and more developed.

There are many profound changes in civilization as well.

The next generation is one of them.

Shen Shi recalled the people of Future World, feeling even deeper—simply the resurgence of the Clan system made him realize the significant changes between future humans and past humans.

Something fundamental had been touched.

"Alright." Shen Shi turned to look at them, "The time you have next is to truly subdue these alien laborers. Don’t think that they are truly subdued just because they have surrendered now; as long as they find an opportunity, they will definitely test our strengths and weaknesses, and your task is to manage them. Those who excel will qualify to follow me and conquer the interstellar."

The final words made quite a few people’s eyes light up.

Indeed!

Human Civilization cannot forever shrink in a corner, hiding in the Solar System if it wants to develop.

They must contact the rest of the interstellar, seek benefits from "diplomacy," and enter this dangerous and dark cosmos with the posture of a true overlord.

Even overlooking this great mission of reaching the seas of stars and seeing it simply from personal development, they must strive for this opportunity.

Compared to staying on Blue Star as a "Prison Guard," how could it measure up to following the Commander-in-Chief to conquer the stars?

"But if the excellent all leave..." someone couldn’t help but speak.

"Foolish." Before Shen Shi could say anything, someone already retorted, "We have set the rules, completed the hardest step, and the rest is naturally handed over to others. Don’t forget, the number of Cheng Mian already exceeds ten million."

"Ten million? It was only two hundred thousand when I was asleep." the speaker smacked his lips.

The more familiar with the interstellar, the more one understands the power of such devices. It was a tremendous device for quickly cultivating Primordial Energy Strong Persons, even serving as the foundation of a D-level civilization.

Initially thought having dozens of them was good enough.

But several million exist?

"We thought we could take on significant responsibilities after waking up, yet still have to rely fully on the Commander-in-Chief." Chen Feng suddenly said, without any bitterness or resentment in his tone.

Just feeling that he and others still need to work hard.

"That’s also a good thing." Shen Shi softly said, "If possible, I would hope to directly make our civilization a powerful one, even punching A Strikes and kicking Pasture Masters, but unfortunately, it still requires all of you, even all humankind’s collective effort to hopefully struggle to survive."

"With the Commander-in-Chief pulling and lifting, we can’t contribute nothing." someone laughed.

"We used to wish to see a day when the Commander-in-Chief was no longer Commander-in-Chief, but now we more hope to see a day when the Commander-in-Chief fully retires."

"Coincidentally, that’s also one of my life goals."

"I’m different from you all; I hope the Commander-in-Chief never retires and always brings out devices and technologies that surpass civilization."

"When put like that, it seems quite reasonable."

"..."

Shen Shi looked at these old companions and just shook his head with a smile, without saying anything.

Watching those children board the flying shuttle.

If he could indeed never retire, continually bringing out stronger devices from the Future World, keeping Human Civilization on a rapidly strengthening trajectory forever with paths ever ahead, maybe that would be nice too.

...

With these hundred thousand Primordial Energy Warriors, finally, the billions of aliens can be put to some use, and as the skills they each master continue to unfold, Shen Shi also feels greatly broadened in perspective.

There is almost nothing that cannot be moved.

Every alien, even those from the extremely weak E-level civilizations, living very frugally, similarly possesses one or two genuine skills.
