alien heir

() Hearing what Yi Na said, Cheng Yuan understood that while he was getting this unexpected inheritance, he had also been put on a shackle, unable to be independent for a long time. this evil plan.

It is simply the temptation of the devil!

But when it comes to evil, if you think about it carefully, the key to whether evil is evil or not depends on where you stand and from what angle you look at it.

From the perspective of human beings, Astor cruelly grabs his own kind and conducts that kind of experiment, which is comparable to the devil's 731. It is absolutely evil and absolutely heinous against humanity!Astor is definitely a heinous guy who will be cast aside by all human beings!

But from another perspective, from Astor's own standpoint, it doesn't seem evil, because he is not human.

Thinking about the attitude of human beings towards other animals, and the calmness with which humans dissect mice, it is not difficult to understand Astor's attitude towards human beings, even though Cheng Yuan, as a human being, cannot accept it psychologically.

And according to Yi Na, in the Yilan Alliance, civilizations like the Earth civilization that have not developed enough to control a star system, travel across star systems between stars, and have no special valuable resources are not equal. Within the scope of contact, but will not take the initiative to invade, it is a state of ignoring, that is, the three no principles of no contact, no interference, and no research.

To put it simply, the current level of the earth does not even have the qualifications to let others take a look at it, let alone aggression.

Therefore, from this point of view, that Astor's attitude towards human beings, at least from his own point of view, is already gentler and more respectful of human civilization.

After all, as Ina said, the technological level of the earth is still unable to pose any threat to Ina. Even if the nuclear bomb can cause damage, it must be able to find and hit people. As long as Astor gets into the spaceship and gets up Not to mention, the whole earth really can't do anything about him, even finding it is difficult.

What's more, Yi Na's current vulnerability is because she has spent all her energy on self-repair. If it is really urgent, she will give up repairing and go to war with the earth first... Cough, although Yi Na is a lifeboat, she can't Without too much force, interstellar navigation may not be very good, but within the scope of the earth, dealing with the current earthlings is probably as simple as drinking cold water.

As for the fact that Astor was killed by a small policeman with a small pistol before he got into the house, it can only be said to be an accident. It was his bad luck, and luck is not your business. If the life level is high or not, the luck is so bad that the god will be destroyed, let alone Astor who is not a god.

Not to mention anything else, if Cheng Yuan stood at Astor's point of view, it would be so troublesome, and there would be no need to play with any secret forces. Instead of repairing himself, he would gather energy and drive a spaceship to negotiate with the Earth government , Use threats or technology exchanges to obtain the human and material support you need.

why?Does that need to be said?Just relying on Ina's living spaceship, relying on the nano-scale robots that make up his body, relying on his ability to combine into various high-tech weapons at any time, and relying on her stealth ability, she can sweep the earth up.

You must know that people on Earth never lack traitors and speculators, nor do they lack the soft bones to obey the strong.

But Astor obviously imagined the earth people and the earth's government too smartly and fiercely, and imagined the earth people's resistance mentality too much, so he came up with a troublesome and evil Astor plan.

This may be related to common sense judgments such as Astor's education environment or world outlook and values. The indestructible existence of jade and so on.

Or, in the society where Astor lives, there are relevant laws that prevent Astor from contacting civilizations at the level of the earth through threats and lures, and because he pays attention to the spiritual body, it is very likely that he has done similar things to If someone finds out, there is no way to hide it.

In any case, since Astor is more than 1000 years old, even if he does not live in human society, his time cycle must have his own way, and he cannot treat such a thousand-year-old monster according to the requirements of human society, but he is certainly not a human being. Stupid, he must have his own considerations and reasons for choosing to do this.

Who stipulates that people must be sophisticated for more than 1000 earth years?

Who stipulated that an alien must think like a human being?

Continue to think about it, with the advanced civilization Astor belongs to, the social group must have already passed the pressure of survival. As the saying goes, that is, the material base is extremely rich, and what it develops should be the spirit of a higher realm civilized.

Thinking of this, Cheng Yuan became interested in the unknown Yilan Alliance, which he would probably contact in the future, so he began to inquire about the Yilan Alliance.

According to Yi Na, because of the big bang, many of her memories were damaged, and the detailed situation of the Yilan Alliance is unknown, so I can only make a generalization based on the remaining information.

What can be known now is that the Yilan Alliance where Astor belongs is a large alliance composed of many other galaxies with the Yilan Galaxy as the core, and the Yilan Galaxy alone is as big as the Milky Way , one can imagine how strong this alliance is.

However, although it is too huge, because of the space-time dimension and other factors, so in layman's terms, it is too far away from the Milky Way. Except for extremely low accidents such as space-time storms, or real high-level gods, there is basically no contact with each other. possible.

In fact, the Milky Way itself is a galaxy with a very low degree of civilization development. Even in this Milky Way, there are many civilizations similar to the Earth, and there are even civilizations that have escaped from the star system, but none of them can escape from the large Milky Way.

Don't mention gossip, let's talk about the Yilan Alliance.

The entire Yilan society, although there are countless races, is basically divided into three major classes according to the degree of development of the citizens' souls, and it is not the so-called equal treatment.

The three levels of residents, converted according to Cheng Yuan's understanding, are the three levels of primary, intermediate, and advanced. Residents of different levels correspond to different rights and obligations, and the treatment is naturally different.

Among them, the primary residents are called the civilian class. Every individual in this class has a fixed materialized body, that is, similar to human beings, they have an innate body. Like human civilization, they use carbon-based life mostly.

Because the soul power of commoners is still very weak, unable to break away from the shackles of the body and reach the level of non-destructive free transfer, so the life span is also very limited, even if these people's races generally live much longer than humans, but none Longevity in the true sense.

In the Yilan Alliance, this level has the largest number of residents, and it does not distinguish between races and civilization levels. As long as you are willing to join the Yilan Alliance, you will be protected and restricted by the laws of the Yilan Alliance, and strictly enforced If the obligations entrusted to you by the Yilan Alliance are accepted by the Federation, then you can become the lowest-ranking Yilan Alliance resident.

Once the common people can make their souls strong enough to be able to transfer into a new physical body freely when their spiritual body is depleted, and have a satisfactory adaptability to the new body, they can become middle-level nobles.

The most critical point here is the pass rate.

That is to say, during the soul transfer process, firstly, the transferred spiritual body must reach 90.00% 90.00% of the soul without damage, so that there is basically no unbearable damage to one's soul during the transfer process; the second is the degree of adaptation, That is to say, the adaptability of the soul transferred into the new body, to be able to perfectly control the new body, this value must also exceed [-]% [-].Only soul transfers that reach these two values ​​at the same time are considered qualified. Forcible soul transfers in other unqualified situations do not count. Once the assessment is passed, then you can be promoted to a middle-class citizen and become a nobleman.

Intermediate-level residents, known as executors, belong to the aristocratic class, referring to those souls who have broken away from the shackles of their original bodies and can freely transfer between different physical bodies without damage, just like the soul has evolved into a set of operating systems The program does not need a fixed computer host as the carrier, but can be replaced by the hardware carrier freely according to the needs. Astor is an existence of this level.

According to the setting of Xianxia, ​​the aristocratic class is the guys who have cultivated to the point where their souls are out of their bodies, or they have cultivated the Nascent Soul.

In this class, it is also divided into six levels according to the strength of the soul and the size of the influence. They are Duke, Bozinan and Lord. Astor belongs to the lowest level of Lord. Of course, these titles are the result of translation .

Take Lord Astor as an example, although he has realized the free and lossless transfer of the soul, but because it is not powerful enough, he can only use a special external linker to perform this lossless transfer, just like between two computers, It must be transmitted with the help of a data line, and it is impossible to achieve wireless transmission.

It is also because of this that after Astor migrated into a human body, he was shot and killed by the female Jing Wenjing. Originally, Astor had the opportunity to use the authority bracelet to teleport back and transfer his soul in time, but it is a pity , probably because he was hit to the point, underestimated the fragility of the human body, and died too quickly, which led to his failure, and his misstep caused eternal hatred, no, it disappeared completely, and there was no hatred.

In addition to being evolved from commoners through self-training, most of the nobles are actually native residents of the Yilan Alliance.

For example, Astor is the star field of the noble core area of ​​the Yilan Alliance. Zac was born in a star field with a strong sense of competition and fighting. The children there have a strong desire at birth, which is acceptable Noble-style education directly learns advanced soul evolution skills. Because of their unique advantages, they can usually escape the shackles of their bodies when they are about a hundred years old, and become real middle-level citizens, that is, nobles who are truly recognized by the alliance.

To put it bluntly, people like Astor are like the second generation of nobles born in developed countries. They are born to enjoy the most favorable treatment and various resources that ordinary people do not have, and they belong to the born aristocrats.

Although most nobles and commoners do not live together, they often meet and contact each other. However, you don't have to worry about ordinary commoners being bullied by powerful nobles, because in the Yilan Alliance, although the hierarchy is very strict, everyone The relevant basic rights of a citizen are quite respected, and there are also a series of strict and flexible legal provisions, so even powerful nobles cannot bully civilians at will, at least not unscrupulously in violation of laws and regulations. Bullying civilians will not only tarnish the honor of nobles themselves, but also be severely punished.

This is very different from the situation in fantasy novels where the ruling class with superpowers can oppress the incompetent at will. It can only be said that Yilan society is indeed a high-level civilization. It pays attention to ability while taking into account fairness and rights. with obligation.

It may be because it has evolved to a boundless and vast high-level interstellar civilization, so there is a vast external space to expand, and the social form is also different, and the material has long been extremely rich, so the internal class conflicts among citizens are small and can be ignored Excluding.

Therefore, the nobles belong to the backbone of the social structure of the Yilan Alliance. They are the real elites of the entire alliance. While enjoying more rights, the nobles also assume more obligations and responsibilities. , all take pride in fulfilling their obligations and contributing to the Federation. They are a group that regards honor as their life, and a group that is respected by everyone.

As for the last, the highest level of citizens, called managers, is also the highest ruling class of the Yilan Alliance, commonly known as the Protoss.

Characters at this level are stronger and more mysterious. They do not easily contact the residents of the intermediate and elementary classes. They belong to the real masters hidden behind the alliance.Therefore, Astor doesn't know the specific situation, such as whether they are divided into different levels, how to divide them, let alone Ina. Such things cannot be known unless they are of a certain class.

At present, we only know that many of the protoss at this level have evolved into an entangled state of pure energy body and material body, and no longer need any material body as the soul support, because they can freely create according to their needs. Create a physical body or a pure energy body.

Their power is huge, they can travel freely in space without any foreign objects, and even transform a planet and create a civilization by themselves.

According to Cheng Yuan's understanding, people of this class are like gods who have accomplished Taoism, or the gods in those myths, they belong to the existence of myths and legends, and they are worthy of the common name of the gods.

It should be pointed out that because the Yilan Alliance is a society that is extremely rich in material, highly developed in spiritual civilization, and pays more attention to the spiritual body, material things are very weak in this society. Don't put it in their eyes, especially the nobles and the protoss.

Therefore, although Cheng Yuan inherited Astor's property by chance, he is still just an outsider who has not been accepted by the alliance, and is not yet a member of the alliance. Even if he is now a member of the alliance, it doesn't matter Whether he has inherited Lord Astor's legacy, according to Cheng Yuan's current mental state or soul strength, he can barely be considered a commoner, or the lowest among commoners.

Of course, this is also expected by Cheng Yuan, and he will not feel inferior because of these things.

"Then what, since Astor is a natural nobleman, does he have any cultivation method? That is, a method to improve the soul level?"

"Of course there are. Your Excellency Astor's family is a noble family, and there have been three grand dukes in it, so Your Excellency Astor's spiritual cultivation method is one of the relatively high-level methods in the alliance's spiritual cultivation method." one."

"Well, since I am the heir, can I learn this method?"

"can."

"Even if I'm a human from Earth, maybe I have a different life form from the Astor race?"

"Of course, because the spiritual body cultivation method is to cultivate the spiritual body and soul, and the soul is essentially a collection of information of high-level living beings. It is the cognition and degree of interference with everything in the whole world, and it is also the basis for controlling the material world. It is one of the constituent bodies, so all high-level creatures can practice the spiritual body cultivation method."

"Oh, it's the same as Buddhism. Anyone can become a Buddha, which is more fair." Cheng Yuan nodded, "Then if this is the case, please teach me Astor's spiritual training method."

"Respected Your Excellency Commander, I have taught you about the cultivation method of Your Excellency Astor's spiritual body."

"Taught it to me? When did it happen? Why didn't I know?" Cheng Yuan asked in surprise.

"Do you still remember the succession ceremony held in the command room?" Ina said calmly, "That's the kind of ceremony you held by pressing your hands on the wisdom crystal."

"Oh, you mean the ceremony where you put your hand on the crystal ball and it glows blue?"

"Yes." Ina replied, "The official inheritance ceremony of the Astor family is not only about material property, but also the cultivation method of the spiritual body, and only the cultivation method of the spiritual body is also inherited, is the real heir , to obtain the highest authority. In fact, during the ceremony, the blue light is called the light of wisdom. When it spreads throughout your body, it has already imprinted the cultivation method in your body, but it has not been activated yet."

"But why didn't I feel anything?" Cheng Yuan asked again, "Why hasn't there been any change?"

"This is because the light of wisdom enters your body, and it will take a period of testing and adaptation." Yi Na continued, "During this period, the light of wisdom will conduct a comprehensive test on your body and calculate what you need. You have the talent you have, and then calculate the most suitable cultivation method for you based on your talent. As long as the test and calculation are over, you will have the most suitable cultivation method in your mind, and you will know it by then. That is Said that there is no fixed method for the cultivation method of the light of wisdom, and it varies from person to person."

"So how long does this test take?"

"It's hard to say, according to your concept of time, it may only take a few seconds, it may take a year, two years, or even ten years, and the test results may not come out accurately in one shot, it may be staged , It will come out part by part. So, please wait patiently, regardless of whether your mental training method appears or not, it will not hinder the fact that you become a commander."

"You've said that, what else can I say?" Cheng Yuan shrugged his shoulders, "Since it's already like this, let's do whatever happens, anyway, it's all based on nothing, and there's nothing to complain about, just accept it calmly gone."

"Commander is wise!"

"Well, I just realized that you can still flatter."

"According to the earth, I just do as the Romans do and tell the truth."

"...Well, since you are so sincere, I have no choice but to reluctantly accept your compliment."
