Chapter 601: Masaki Keigo's Brain Spaceship (Part )

Of course, although it was said lightly, as if the pain caused by the previous war had disappeared with the passage of time, the people present actually understood that the pain involving life could not disappear so easily.

Getting used to the grief of the passing of life and the complete disappearance of this grief are two similar but completely different concepts.

Then, Keigo Masaki randomly asked several questions via the microphone, and the answers he got surprised Zero even more.

In addition to war, climate change, geological disasters, infectious diseases, and even some unknown changes can bring these ordinary civilizations far more casualties than this revolutionary war.

It was as if the casualties that made Zero so sad were not worth mentioning at all in the eyes of these people.

Compared to what this war brought them, what they lost seemed completely acceptable.

Masaki Keigo ended the call, turned his head and looked at the people from the Land of Light, and said casually, "You people from the Land of Light are good in everything, but you take your own lives too lightly, and you take the lives of others too seriously.
You can understand that you, the people of the Land of Light, sacrificed for your ideals, but you cannot understand that ordinary people sacrificed for their ideals, even if their ideals were only trivial, such as having enough food and clothing.

After saying that, Masaki Keigo seemed to have thought of something, and his hands began to type rapidly on the keyboard. Then everyone was surprised to find that Masaki Keigo was so outrageous that he had compiled a complete set of information from nowhere.
Even put this information directly on the screen in front of everyone in the most straightforward way.
Then, Masaki Keigo continued to say to the others, "A fact that may be even more difficult for you to accept is that, just like your Kingdom of Light, after experiencing a catastrophe like the Plasma Spark Tower, it has completed the well-known 'evolution'.
Judging from the data, more than half of the disasters that would cause huge casualties to ordinary civilizations would also indirectly or even directly promote the development of these civilizations to a certain extent.”

Death will promote development. Zero found it difficult to accept such an answer. Seeing that Masaki Keigo said it so lightly, Zero walked up to it in disbelief and carefully read the information that Masaki Keigo had compiled at some point.

Then, he looked at it for a long time and turned his head silently, "Well, Captain Zoffy, can you come over and help me see if this is true? I don't quite understand it."

The corners of Masaki Keigo's mouth twitched wildly, "I don't understand why you came up here?!"

Jonias looked at Zoffy in shock, and Zoffy could only cover his face and look at Jonias helplessly, with shame written all over his face.

As for Belia, he took out a light particle screen from somewhere, walked silently to the side of Zero, and began to record the data.

"Hiss~ Interesting."

Unlike others, Beria studied the relationship between war and development. Of course, his research focus was on war, not development.
However, compared to Zoffy, Jonias and Zero who were also on the same spaceship, he was one of the very few people who had seriously thought about the positive significance of war.

While taking notes, Belia said to the stunned Zero beside him, "Don't look at me like that. Unlike you, I was a top student when I was studying in the Kingdom of Light!!!"

Belia's next move surprised Zero even more. Belia even threw the cloak aside because he felt that the cloak hindered him from using the light particle screen.

Belia glanced at Zero and said, "I know that as a citizen of the Land of Light, you will never accept war in your life, but even if you use it as a reference, you must know the positive significance of war in development."

"War has positive significance?" Zero looked unconvinced, but he did not notice that Zoffy and Jonias did not refute Belia's words, but just looked at him helplessly.

"In almost all histories and analyses of civilizations, so-called war is considered an extreme means of promoting the development of civilization.

Although it is extreme, it is a development that goes against common sense and logic.
In every war, in order to gain an advantage, both sides or even several sides will increase their investment in scientific research and development, which often leads to a series of technological breakthroughs. "

When Belia said this, he found that Zero's expression was still very unconvinced. He was stunned for a moment, then sneered, "Boy, you must think that what I said is simple, right? These things are even mentioned in the basic education of the Kingdom of Light."

Zero nodded, "Yes, anyone who has received education in the Kingdom of Light should understand this simplest logic. Even I know that war can promote technological progress. And the one who taught me this was the empire named after you, Belia."

"But what's wrong with that? What's there to praise about the technological progress that was achieved through war?"

"Humph!" Masaki Keigo, who had obtained the information, snorted coldly and said to Zero speechlessly, "You, can't you see anything other than technological progress?"

Jonias turned his head and whispered to Zoffy, "That shouldn't be the case. Even if Zero hasn't received a complete education in the Land of Light, I remember that there should be relevant information in the training of the Space Guard, right? Anyway, although it is hard to say how 'perfect' the Ultra Spirit of the Land of Light is, it should have certain theoretical and practical value if applied to other civilizations."

Zoffy nodded, then shook his head, "Generally, the Space Guard soldiers have received training. After all, we are facing countless unknown civilizations.
But it is well known that Zero is an exception. His training has gone astray. His heroic identity has made his teaching a difficult problem.
You can understand that the people who are qualified to teach him don’t have the time to teach him these things, and the people who have the time to teach him don’t have the courage to teach him.”

Jonias was stunned for a moment, then nodded. This solved some of his doubts, that is, sometimes Zero behaved very maturely, but sometimes he behaved very childishly.
As far as he knows, Zero is actually no longer a teenager. If you count carefully, Zero is much older than the Ultra Brothers who went to Earth.
However, Zero's condition was not affected by his age. He may have fought with Belial for tens of thousands of years, but the returning Zero was still very young.

Today, Zero was just like a teenager, questioning Belia, the good student beside him, "After all, it's all about war. You just like war. Otherwise, why are you so serious!?"

Beria shook his head. "You don't think I'm on the same level as you, do you? First of all, if you can see clearly, you will find that only a small part of the information on these major disasters and subsequent civilization changes on the screen is related to war.
And are the positive effects of war really only technology and military?"

"In addition to the simple things you can think of, the greatest positive effect of war is to promote the change of political power and the redelineation of civilizational boundaries, thereby promoting changes in the political system."

"Compared to technology, this is something that idiots like you should think about carefully."

"Of course, the role of war in promoting civilization is complex. I guess you don't understand it. Just like you understand, war can also inhibit the development of civilization. This is a very complicated subject."

"The problem is, as one of the countless tools for development, you can't always pretend that war and its positive meaning don't exist. As long as you, Zero, really want the universe to reach ultimate peace, then you must recognize the positive meaning of war, because you can't ignore the possibility of development."

Belia shrugged. "Although the people of the Land of Light are naive, as a martial civilization that has participated in countless wars, they should have some information on this. In fact, Ken and I both left relevant information. I can only say, Zero, you make me feel that there is a big problem with the education in the Land of Light."

"You! Belia! You say whatever you want and I say what I want! But you can't say anything about the Kingdom of Light!"

"Oh? Then tell me, is there only spirit in your Ultra Spirit, and nothing else?" Belia looked at Zero sarcastically, "Or, like me, have you long forgotten what Ultra Spirit is?"

"How is that possible! Of course I know what Ultra Spirit is! But..." Zero said stubbornly, "What does Ultra Spirit have to do with what you said?!"

Belia was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look at Zoffy, "What? Is Ultra Spirit just a slogan now?"

After saying that, Director Belia gave up talking to Zero and instead devoted himself to organizing and analyzing the information in front of him.

Zero looked at Zoffy, and Zoffy sighed helplessly. There were some things he couldn't explain clearly. Ultra Spirit was just a sentence to put it simply, but it did include a lot of things to put it in a complicated way.

Broadly speaking, in a narrow sense, Ultra Spirit is just a spirit, but in a broad sense, Ultra Spirit can even be regarded as the guiding ideology of the Kingdom of Light.

However, some people, including Belia, Torrekia and Castor, believe that the Ultra Spirit lacks certain theoretical and practical value, is too superficial and too utopian, so that in some cases, the so-called Ultra Spirit lacks direct applicability.

But in fact, their idea is not so simple to deny the Ultra Spirit. In fact, it is quite the opposite.
No matter whether it is Belia, Torrekia or any other person who denies the Ultra Spirit, they only deny the part of the Ultra Spirit that they don't like from different angles, but they don't completely deny the Ultra Spirit.

The core of their denial of the Ultra Spirit is actually one thing, that is, the missing part of the Ultra Spirit is relative to the ultimate ideal of the Kingdom of Light, the peace of the universe.
But, in the final analysis, what the Ultra Spirit lacks is only the ultimate ideal of the Kingdom of Light, the peace of the universe.
If we only discuss the development of some low-level civilizations, an Ultra Warrior with the Ultra Spirit should have acquired certain theoretical and practical abilities through learning a long time ago.

To sum up, in the discourse system of the ultimate ideal of the Kingdom of Light, the theory and practice of Ultra Spirit, although it has a far-reaching impact on the universe and a high development value, may be difficult to directly apply to solving real problems in certain specific situations, or its effect may not be apparent in the short term.

However, this does not mean that Ultra Spirit is completely useless.
To a certain extent, everything the Ultra Brothers did on Earth was guided by the Ultra Spirit. To be even more complicated, the development of the entire Kingdom of Light was guided by the Ultra Spirit.

But again, Zero lacks some basic education in the Land of Light.

After Beria said a few words, he started to study the information obtained by Masaki Keigo again. He was able to say so much, which was already the utmost kindness of an "old senior".
After finding that he really couldn't explain himself to Zero, Belia decided to give up this time-wasting behavior.

It is difficult for a top student to teach a poor student questions. Zero sighed. He felt that he must have lost face today because he saw Captain Zoffy and Jonias looking at him and silently covering their faces.

Unlike Belia, Masaki Keigo had originally received an invitation from Castor to come to the Kingdom of Light to "show his prowess in public". He looked at Zero and decided to tell Zero these things in a more popular way.
He snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "You don't think that ordinary civilizations that can survive wars and disasters have learned nothing, do you?"

"Wars and disasters are dangerous. We have known this for a long time. Although we cannot completely eliminate them like the Kingdom of Light, as long as we have brains, we can also learn something from them." Masaki Keigo glanced at Zero and then continued to explain.
"Just as Beria said, war can promote the scientific progress of civilization and the political changes of civilization in an extreme way, and it can even give birth to some more brilliant literature."

"This is certainly not the purpose of our war, and we are not likely to actively desire all that war brings. However, when we survive war after war, we always understand some things, such as the possibility that war can make us better."

"Of course, this is just a helpless move. If things can really develop smoothly, who would choose war? But some situations are not that simple. When civilization develops to a certain point, there is no other way to change everything except war. In that case, war is inevitable, and death is also inevitable.
After all, the development of civilization is not something that can be dealt with with a laugh. It cannot be so leisurely and elegant.
Since war is unavoidable sometimes, we will choose to use war to make civilization better."

"Also, the same is true for so-called mass-death disasters. Just as what Beria has read is recorded, in different civilizations and in different histories, so-called disasters have repeatedly promoted the development and progress of civilization.

Of course, this is also passive. In the process of dealing with natural disasters, civilizations have learned more effective resource management, social organization, and technological innovation. Natural disasters also prompt civilizations to conduct more in-depth scientific research on the environment, and even the cooperation that your country of light has always dreamed of, beyond race and civilization.

In order to survive, different camps will share best practices and exchange technologies to jointly improve their disaster prevention, mitigation and relief capabilities.”

Zero looked at Belia who was recording, and he knew that what Masaki Keigo said was right. He had seen with his own eyes the scenes of civilizations uniting together in the face of various disasters.

"And the deaths of ordinary people you mentioned, in your eyes, those deaths are meaningless tragedies that need your help.

But in some situations, so-called death is actually a kind of honor. Although he died on the battlefield or in disaster relief, his name will be remembered forever.
That’s why I think you don’t need to care so much about the death of the Revolutionary Army. They are heroes, not objects of your pity.”

Zero looked at Belia while listening to what Masaki Keigo said. If it was before, he would definitely refute what Masaki Keigo said, because death is death, and the passing of life is irreversible.

but now
Masaki Keigo looked at Zero's expression and sighed, "You think too much, but learn too little, Zero. You think too much of yourself and too little of others. But in fact, ordinary civilizations also have their own ideas."

"We were born on a planet far inferior to the Kingdom of Light, where we grew up and evolved. We may be full of pathetic elements in your eyes, but we don't think we are hopeless.
You don't have to have a condescending attitude. After coming to a civilization like ours and experiencing some of the things that you can't understand, you don't have to think that we need you to save us. "

"We don't need your rescue. We hope to gain your strength, but we don't need any of you to save us."

"But." Zero paused, then said, "The development dilemma of ordinary civilization, if I can use those demon fragments to give them more energy..."

"The difficulties of development are the same for everyone. Has your Kingdom of Light been a developed civilization like it is now from the beginning?" Masaki Keigo frowned, looking at the crystals from Belia that had abundant but chaotic energy.
"If you were to go back to the Land of Light long, long ago, you would be able to see that the Land of Light at that time encountered the same dilemma as our civilization. There were no Ultramen in the universe at that time. Did they just have to wait for death?"

"Indeed, no matter how advanced our development is, it is synonymous with backwardness in your eyes. However, how many civilizations that were contemporary with your Kingdom of Light are still alive today? You are special, not us."

Zero didn't know what to say, and Masaki Keigo continued, "We are very vulnerable to you, and our death is very sad. You have only lived in these civilizations for a while, and because of your compassion, you intend to break the bottom line of the Kingdom of Light and break your bottom line as an Ultraman.

However, we live in such a world. According to this logic, do we all have to constantly break through our bottom line as human beings? "

"I said the same thing again. You think too highly of yourself and too incompetent of us." Masaki Keigo looked at the pitch-black universe and said to Ultraman Zero in a human voice.
"At the beginning of our civilization, we were prepared for the possibility of its destruction. From the days of eating raw meat and drinking blood to the present, we have experienced blows again and again. But this is not a pitiful thing for us. On the contrary, this is where we are stronger than your Kingdom of Light.
We are more able to accept the pain of civilization's decline than you, the Kingdom of Light, because we understand that these are the birth pangs before we rise again."

"In fact, you still have time to suffer when facing death, but we can only choose to move forward. I know that in the eyes of the people of the Kingdom of Light, this is somewhat cold-blooded and not so great." Masaki Keigo twisted his neck. He rarely put himself in the position of "inferior civilization", but he knew how "inferior civilization" felt.

"But in fact, in our eyes, people like you who will suffer for who knows how long because of the passing of some lives are somewhat uncomfortable."

Masaki Keigo patted Zero, "Humph! To be honest, I don't really want to say this, but sometimes, even the post-war world is lucky for ordinary people."

"I know you can't understand it, but this is the truth. A world in ruins is also a world waiting to be revived. Everyone has a chance."

"If civilization happens to encounter a technological explosion at this time, that would be great. Everyone can find their own way out, and everyone can work together to contribute to the development of civilization without realizing it."

Masaki Keigo spread his hands indifferently at Zero, "This is a world you cannot understand. You think everything related to death is weakness, despair, and pain. But if you abandon your overly broad sympathy and feel it seriously, you will find that death is also a beginning for our civilization."

"Are all deaths like this?" asked Cero.

Masaki Keigo opened his mouth, then revealed a shocked expression, and said, "Of course, of course not. The specific situation must be analyzed in detail. You don't think that there is an explanation that can cover all phenomena, right?"

"I mean, how should I judge whether I should take action as an Ultraman?"

"If it's a monster, I know what I should do, but what if it's something else?" Zero looked at Masaki Keigo, "Like what... development issues?"

Masaki Keigo turned his head to look at Zoffy, but Zero immediately appeared in his sight. Masaki Keigo sighed, "In fact, doesn't the Kingdom of Light already have relevant standards?"

"As far as I know, the Kingdom of Light has rejected all these things. Of course, there are problems with a one-size-fits-all approach, but if you can't even make a judgment, then just do it."

"In fact, I don't even know what you want to learn in this civilization."

"As far as I know, for example, you, Zero, can neither improve their productivity nor their political system. You are not good at anything except fighting. The best choice is that you better not get involved in these things."

Listening to Masaki Keigo's increasingly outrageous remarks, Zoffy finally couldn't help it, "Wait? You mean, is it wrong for us to want to change ourselves?"

Masaki Keigo was stunned for a moment. He wanted to mock, but he started to think seriously, "Actually, you are not doing nothing. You can certainly do a lot of things. The question is, don't you think you want to consider other things before thinking about what you are going to do?"

Zoffy's expression was a little confused, and Masaki Keigo said very seriously, "Well, let me be frank. According to your level of civilization, in theory, there is no problem with what you want to do. You are qualified to think so."

"Your level of civilization actually allows you to have some simple methods to achieve your ideals, but you are too easily fooled, which restricts you from using such simple and crude methods."

Zoffy seemed to have realized it, but he still asked, "What if... I mean what if, for example, Zero insisted on doing something? For example, forcibly helping some civilization to develop?"

"Hmm," Masaki Keigo thought about it, hesitated for a moment and then said, "Given the gap between you and ordinary civilizations in some aspects, I think you'd better be prepared to be used as a gun by others."

“There are ways to change this.”

"no!"

"Is there really no solution???"

"Well," Masaki Keigo looked at Zoffy and said uncertainly, "We at TPC have cooperation with a life form called Kirieloids, if you are willing."

"Of course. Wait, you're lying to us, right?"

"Humph! See, I told you there's no way you can change it."
