Beneath Deep Space

Chapter 299 Be your own hero

These three messages, "The End of the Nix Civilization," "The Great Filter," and "Genetic Philosophy" were quickly spread among the Noah society. This is nothing confidential...

Everyone who heard it was very interested at the beginning, but turned pale at the end, as if they had seen the biggest fear in the world.

They came too suddenly, were too shocking, and appeared collectively, leaving no one with the slightest chance to breathe.

The once powerful "Knicks civilization" died without any chance of fighting back, giving everyone a strong sense of sadness.

The Nix civilization is like this, but what about humans? What will be the final outcome?

The new human civilization... seems to be suppressed by a Mount Tai!

There was an atmosphere of sadness in the whole society. After entering the "era of great affluence", the slight relaxation had long since disappeared, replaced by... a kind of extreme seriousness and depression.

Yes, this kind of weight like a mountain seems to be able to break everyone's backbone!

This heaviness makes everyone truly aware of the insignificance of civilization...

Although this feeling has happened many times before, this time it is different. The feeling of insignificance in the past was caused by various life and death crises and insufficient science and technology, but this time it is not...

The big filter is there, unbiased.

It blocks the way forward for all civilizations. It cannot fly, take shortcuts, or change direction... Apart from fighting it to the end like Foolish Old Man moving mountains, there is only one negative plan: "retreat."

If you don't advance, you retreat, it's that simple.

But it’s easier said than done to move forward?

Even the children going to and from school are quiet. The teachers looked very serious, and some of the noisy children became much better behaved. Their young minds seemed to be infected by this atmosphere.

If you don't break through this big filter, no matter how great your wealth is, it will only be temporary. Everyone knows that without nuclear fusion, great wealth is nothing, and the available energy for mankind is still limited!

After enjoying the carnival, you must be responsible for the aftermath - although there is still a long time before the end.

Very long, very long, very long... The Knicks used to think so too.

Especially the proposals of "gene philosophy" and "philosophy tree" make people feel absolutely insignificant and desperate...

Not to mention ordinary people or scientists, even Yu Yifeng, a determined superhuman, has experienced a sense of oppression as if he was truly facing "God".

Interstellar civilization is not the strongest yet. Above this, there are more, more...

Even science and technology are not the main thread in the starry sky, they are just auxiliary.

The new human civilization is not yet an interstellar civilization...it is just a low-level civilization!

…

"The frogs at the bottom of the well have seen the wider sky. Most of them are scared to jump back to the bottom of the well and return to their gentle hometown. But there are also a few who want to look at the sky farther away..."

"The bugs in the gutter will be killed by the sun if they leave the gutter. But there will always be special bugs crawling out and trying to leave the gutter, even at the cost of their lives."

Yu Yifeng sighed and said: "I don't know what you are thinking. To live this life happily and carefree, leaving the problems to the next generation, and then leaving the problems to the next generation... …”

"Anyway, the time until an energy crisis is measured in tens of thousands of years, and it will definitely not happen in our generation."

"Just leave the problem to the next generation until it can no longer be solved and there is no longer enough power to overcome it...and then you will be trapped here and die, leading to the same ending as most civilizations."

"...Slowly being strangled by the big filter?"

The venue was very quiet.

Except for Yu Yifeng's speech, there was no other sound, and even the people present held their breathing quietly.

After a long time, Yu Yifeng continued to speak: "Or... we launch a real challenge to the Great Filter! Become the first generation pioneer!"

"We overcome the instinct brought by genes, endure the fear, and take the most difficult first step!"

"Even a toad must have the courage to eat swan meat!"

"What about you? Tell me what you think? Tell me what you really think!" His words became louder and louder, and his tone became more and more sharp.

Even because he was so excited, all the veins on his forehead popped out.

"In short, I, Yu Yifeng, will never jump back to the bottom of the well and be that frog at the bottom of the well! I will launch the final challenge to it, even if I use up all my hard work and wisdom in my life!"

This is an extremely important large-scale meeting, and even many high-level officials on the surface rushed back to the Noah to attend this meeting. There were more than 2,600 people sitting at the bottom, including high-level, middle-level and relevant members of various departments. They were the core of civilization.

The purpose is to explore..."the great filter of civilization".

Yu Yifeng felt a little uneasy. He didn't know what these people were thinking.

Faced with a problem that will only appear in thousands or tens of thousands of years, it seems to be unfounded worries, but in fact... this is not unfounded worries.

If you want to challenge the Great Filter, you have to do it sooner rather than later.

The sooner the better!

These are elite human beings and cannot be instigated by Yu Yifeng's few words. Their true thoughts are the official thoughts of a civilization.

Yes, a civilization’s true thoughts determine the direction of a civilization!

Now, it’s time to decide!

His heart began to beat wildly.

"Seconded!"

As soon as Yu Yifeng finished speaking, Professor Ding Yidong was the first to stand up. Apart from these two loud words, he said nothing and then sat down directly.

However, his red eyes showed that he had not been living peacefully these past few days.

Suddenly, Yu Yifeng seemed to see the tears flashing in his eyes, which was a kind of excitement and realization.

Thousands of words, just condensed into two words, gave Yu Yifeng the best support and the firmest support!

Ding Yidong is a very influential scientist. After he took the lead to set an example, someone else immediately stood up and expressed his will sonorously and forcefully.

It was Dr. Rimbaud. He seemed to have lost a lot of weight, but after hearing the determination of Yu Yifeng and Ding Yidong, he stood up resolutely.

"Everyone, isn't it something that will never be completed in a lifetime... Let's do it! Why not do it?"

"This project is too long, too long! There will be no performance evaluation and no research pressure in the future, so what are you afraid of?"

"You can be lazy from now on, but you have to do it!" This kind of unique black humor appeared at the meeting... Well, everyone knew that Dr. Rimbaud was telling a joke, and no one really laughed.

Dr. Rimbaud was not embarrassed, but shouted loudly: "So... I agree with Captain Yu, we must challenge this big filter now, rather than leaving the problem to the future!"

“If we shrink back, others in the future will definitely shrink back too!”

"We are definitely not worrying in vain!"

After Rimbaud finished speaking, he sat down directly, as if he was relieved. Perhaps this was the decision he made after thinking for a long time.

After he sat down, no one spoke for a long time, and a dead silence fell on the venue again.

At this moment, there was a sudden shout: "Ladies and gentlemen, show your courage!" It was the head of the Kinov Industrial Center, Mr. Ivanovich, another Heavyweights.

He looked at the silent crowd below and said through gritted teeth: "No matter what it is! No matter how difficult it is!"

"We must not be eliminated like this!"

"Can't be eliminated by the first screening!"

"We are a new human civilization, not the previous civilization! We have enough courage and strength!"

"Our society is strong enough!"

"Never! Never be eliminated!"

With a loud "bang", the tall Russian man hit the table with his fist.

This loud noise seemed to hit everyone's heart.

Yes, if we don’t even have the courage to challenge, what are humans?

Bugs? Insects still have the courage to fly into the flames, but what about humans?

Do you just tacitly agree that you can't make it?

Just fall into the mud pit and acquiesce to your own depravity?

Just narcotizing yourself in "great wealth"?

Just go on like this year after year, and then perish?

what is this? !

With a "bang", another irritable congressman slammed the table. His face turned red and he roared out one word: "Fuck!"

Although it was very informal, everyone knew what he wanted to express...

The dead silence was broken, and gradually, gradually, people stood up.

Courage is something hidden in everyone's heart.

The courage of one person is just a small fire, which is not even enough to warm people's hearts; the courage of ten people can hug together to warm people; the courage of a hundred people is already a very powerful force.

And the courage of a civilization…

It's enough...

Let the crushed spine stand upright!

A subtle emotion began to take root in civilization, and as more and more individuals joined, this emotion became stronger and stronger.

This kind of emotion is hard to describe, but it transcends the big net that regulates civilized behavior. It begins to spread rapidly in the venue, and gradually, gradually, it forms an overwhelming and unparalleled powerful momentum!

Like a prairie fire, like a tsunami.

It is continuous and gushing, and once it takes shape, it becomes unstoppable!

At this moment, any resistance will be overwhelmed by this storm-like momentum!

People in the venue began to go crazy, and more and more people tried to jump up and challenge the impossibility of life, trying to break through the behavioral restrictions brought by "genetic philosophy" with wisdom and anger.

Even if Foolish Old Man moves mountains, so what?

…It’s not a person, it’s a civilization.

It’s the entire civilization!

We want to challenge.

Our civilization needs a challenge!

Facing the increasingly fanatical crowd, Yu Yifeng had never been so vulnerable, and tears blurred his eyes.

He had never cried in front of so many people.

Not just him, many people were in tears. After making this extraordinary decision, people were moved for themselves and for the entire civilization.

We are small, but we are also great. We will be the first generation, the first generation to overcome all obstacles.

We will take the most difficult step.

Civilization has not disappointed everyone. Civilization... is our common civilization.

We originated from life on earth 3.8 billion years ago, starting from the ruins of old humanity.
