"I have no idea."

Li Zhengfan answered Ji Xinghe's question without any hesitation, and then explained: "Although I have been with it for more than nine years, I don't think I know enough about it, especially for what it really is.

idea.”

Li Yuanba frowned, seeming to be concerned about the description of "together" that Li Zhengfan said.

Ji Xinghe looked curious.

Li Zhengfan understood.

"For example, it clearly has enough strength to end the war on the alien planet, but it has been waiting. In the past, I thought it wanted to use this war to consume the rebellious forces within the empire. But

It doesn't seem to be the case now, because it has very strong control over the resistance army led by Dongguo Cilian.

In recent times, Dongguo Cilian or his subordinates are very likely to come to alien planets and trade with the Federation through the jump channel in the Battle Scar Canyon. This is the information obtained from it."

The news contained in these remarks was analyzed immediately, and relevant personnel formulated a response strategy, which was omitted.

Li Yuanba, who continued to frown, started to argue.

"It has no ability to end this war, even if the so-called Anti-Galactic Corps and the Imperial Royal Mecha Guards Battalion join the war. We already know that the use of nuclear weapons will affect the Empire's use of jump gates."

"The use of nuclear weapons will indeed have a certain impact on the jump gate." Li Zhengfan shook his head and said: "But the question is how much yield is needed, and does the empire really only have two jump bases on the alien planet?"

A long time ago, the Federation had suspected that the Empire had a jump base on the alien planet in addition to the Battle Scar Canyon and the Mountain of the Gods.

After all, the alien planet is too big, and the empire also has a miniaturized jump gate device. Even if the Federation has control of the air, it is difficult to detect everything in an environment similar to a dust storm and in some special areas.

However, after multiple verifications and analysis of the development of the war, the Federation now believes that the Empire may really only have two jump bases.

At this time, Li Zhengfan's words reminded people again of that terrifying possibility.

"Where?" Li Yuanba asked directly.

"I have no idea."

Li Zhengfan didn't know why he chose to lie. He already knew it three years ago.

Then he said in a very positive tone: "But I know that the empire must have a third jump base on the alien planet. It has either been built or is still under construction."

Theoretically, no one could detect Li Zhengfan's lies at this time, because the most advanced lie detection equipment in the federation would be difficult to use on his physical condition, and no one used the lie detection equipment on him.

But Ji Xinghe felt something was wrong. It was due to his intuition, but for some reasons he did not say it on the spot and kept his external appearance unchanged.

Li Yuanba, who was troubled by concern, was already a little out of his mind at this time.

"So, the jump gate in Battle Scar Canyon is not important to the empire at all?"

"That's true, but the impact is still there."

Li Zhengfan pondered for three seconds before continuing: "From a normal thinking model, Emperor Wu III will deliberately give up the jump base in the Battle Scar Canyon, at the other end of the empire, to the resistance army led by Dongguo Cilian.

.It is also possible that the orangutan in charge of the jump base could reach a private deal with Dongguo Cilian.

Then, let Dongguo Cilian bring certain advantages to the resistance through the help of the federation, so that more opposition forces from the empire can emerge and join the resistance. In this way, Emperor Wu III can complete his achievements in one battle.

At the same time, when the jump base in Battle Scar Canyon is under the control of Dongguo Cilian, it is impossible for the Federation to destroy it. Dongguo Cilian will not let the Federation approach the jump gate for technical deciphering, because that will make Emperor Wu

The third generation directly destroyed the jump base.

Once the three parties reached a balance in a certain sense, Emperor Wu III was able to let the empire's Royal Academy of Sciences use its subordinates among the rebels to master some of the federal technology through the federation's support for the rebels.

However, these are normal thinking patterns.

The thinking mode of Emperor Wu III was not normal, and the social system of the empire destined that the forces that opposed it would not be destroyed by it. As long as it continued to rule the empire with high pressure, the fire of resistance would never be extinguished.

But it still has to do this, why?”

Li Zhengfan moved his eyes away from Li Yuanba and looked at Ji Xinghe.

"I think Emperor Wu III gave up the jump base in Battle Scar Canyon just to let you go to the Empire Star."

Ji Xinghe's expression was calm: "Why?"

"Because it desires true evolution, this is the only information I can confirm about it."

Li Zhengfan paused slightly and began to explain.

"Many people have said that when wealth reaches a certain level, money is just a number. Similarly, when power reaches a certain level, the motivation to pursue power will be lost.

Emperor Wu III inherited the throne of the empire and also inherited the entire empire. It can be said that it was born to stand at the top of power, so it did not need to pursue power at all.

Ruling the empire does not bring any fun to it, and the emergence of the resistance is just a piece of fun for it. Including the war with the Federation, it has no meaning to it, because it knows very well that it can only destroy

The Federation can never rule the Federation.

Even if it wins, the new empire that combines the empire and the federation will continue to have resistance armies, until one day, the new empire becomes another federation. Based on this, it will not have the chance to leave its name in history.

, because it will definitely be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.”

For many people, Li Zhengfan's words were an analysis of Emperor Wu III for Ji Xinghe, Li Yuanba, and many others.

But for Ji Xinghe, Li Yuanba, and a very few people, it is like a reminder and a warning.

"The threat of the third civilization is also meaningless to it. Even if the empire and the federation will be destroyed by the third civilization in the future, it will not care. Because these are all things it once had and can have.

By the way, regarding the third civilization, Emperor Wu I called it the creator civilization, Emperor Wu II called it the divine civilization, and Emperor Wu III called it the ruin civilization.

Judging from its understanding of the third civilization, what it really desires is to evolve among the ruins like the third civilization. At present, I am not sure whether it is its individual evolution or the evolution of its group, but about it

The thirst for evolution is certain."

Li Zhengfan's words seemed to have changed from a reminder and warning to a painting.

He looked at Ji Xinghe who had a calm expression.

"It is an established fact that the power of Qi can increase lifespan. The limit of how Qi can increase lifespan is also an established fact. Even someone as powerful as Emperor Wu III could not live more than three hundred years.

Of course, Emperor Wu III may not have thought about pursuing immortality, because the power of Qi is not the best known way to achieve immortality. Mechanical and biochemical transformation, uploading consciousness to the virtual world, etc. are all better research.

direction, but as far as I know, it has not invested research resources in these aspects.

But the length of lifespan, for humans and orangutans, is the best proof of the sublimation of the level of life. And if you want to sublimate the level of life, you need evolution in the true sense.

I think that humans and orangutans, two very similar life forms, as well as more similar life forms in the universe, perhaps including the life forms of the third civilization, if not created by a higher intelligent civilization, are actually

They are all pursuing evolution.

From marine life to land life, from reptiles to primates, from apes to Homo sapiens, from modern Homo sapiens to ancient humans, modern humans evolved over and over again.

The evolutionary history of the Imperial Orangutan is very similar to that of humans. Some people believe that humans and orangutans are both created by truly advanced intelligent civilizations, but in my opinion, the two life forms of humans and orangutans are pursuing evolution in life.

During the process, life forms that are more suitable for completing the next stage of evolution appear.

And those who were not suitable were all eliminated, such as Homo habilis, Homo erectus, and the Neanderthals eliminated by late Homo sapiens in human history. Those that were not eliminated, such as some animals today, will have their intelligence levels.

Far inferior to humans..."

"Tell me the conclusion." Ji Xinghe interrupted Li Zhengfan's science popularization.

"Okay." Li Zhengfan nodded and said: "The next stage of evolution for humans and imperial orangutans is to obtain and master the power of Qi. What I mean by obtaining and mastering is that the genetic frequency of humans has been completely changed by the power of Qi.

, to put it simply, most of the newly born human beings are born with the power of Qi and no longer need to receive gifts.

The third civilization, I don’t know how many years ago, has completed this stage of evolution, and may now be in a new stage of evolution. I think it should be related to the characteristics of the gift, but this has nothing to do with what I want to say.

What I want to say is that if Emperor Wu I, who had obtained the power of Qi three hundred years ago, was willing to give as many gifts as possible to his tribe like you, and conduct research on Qi and gifts like the Federation,

, allowing the empire to have more orangutans with gifted abilities similar to Fat Tiger.

So, the empire may have completed this stage of evolution now, and started to touch upon a new stage of evolution like the third civilization. But Emperor Wu I was not like you, and until now, the empire has not appeared like Fat Tiger.

of orangutans.”

Li Zhengfan didn't know if he was flattering, but it didn't matter.

He continued: "Emperor Wu III wanted to pursue the next stage of evolution, so he was willing to hand over the gifted ability to Aida Kang. In the empire, this special method of gifting is called inheritance. Then, Aida Kang will give the empire

The orangutan group has given a lot of gifts, so that the genes of the orangutans who have gained Qi will undergo evolutionary changes.

But it is too late for it to do so. The third civilization will appear in forty-seven years, and there will be no time for the genetic frequency of the imperial orangutan group to change. Because it will take a long time for the empire to be able to grant gifts.

With only it and Aida Kang, without quantitative changes, it will naturally be difficult for qualitative changes to occur.

Moreover, Emperor Wu III was born to be in control. He did not want the next stage of evolution to be brought about by other orangutans or other people. It must be led by him or discovered by him, just like you.

It has the same meaning now for the human world.

so……"

Li Zhengfan looked at Ji Xinghe and said seriously: "It wants... you!"

"hiss……"

Li Yuanba took a deep breath, suddenly sat up from the hospital bed, and looked at Ji Xinghe with strange eyes.

"Old man, why don't you accept it? It's worth destroying all the jump bases and jump gate technology in the alien planet!"

Ji Xinghe looked at Li Yuanba coldly: "You are quite worthy now, and didn't you say that Emperor Wu III is yours?"

Li Yuanba was speechless and lay back on the hospital bed again.

After all, they are brothers, and Li Zhengfan, the eldest brother, stepped forward.
