Capítulo 241: Chapter 241: The King and the People
Ge Si is the first leader of the Olive Branch Civilization.
Ge Si Rong Guang is the shared consciousness cluster itself.
Duo Ke and the federal scholars had never imagined that Ge Si Rong Guang had independence. It not only refers to the collective consciousness of all the lives of the Olive Branch Civilization united, but also to another consciousness that transcends these consciousnesses.
Astonishment!
Duo Ke's astonishment was far stronger than his fear.
In the next moment, he saw all the consciousness of Ge Si.
If the outer god of the Genesis Project is a cup that holds the entire universe, then Ge Si Rong Guang can be seen as a box containing the entire Olive Branch Civilization.
When Duo Ke saw Ge Si Rong Guang, he also saw the entire Olive Branch Civilization.
Origin!
Development!
Progress!
Countless thoughts struck Duo Ke's mind, assimilating him.
At this moment, another consciousness intervened, forcibly severing the connection. Duo Ke's body was hit by a flying stone, and he was knocked out of the thin veil of light.
At this moment, a spaceship came and took him away.
Duo Ke was in a state of confusion for a long time afterward. Although he had only been in contact with Ge Si Rong Guang for a few seconds, he was still shocked by what he had seen.
This shock kept him trapped in his own thoughts for a long time, unable to break free.
Seven years later, Duo Ke suddenly woke up and exclaimed, "King!"
Sweat ran down his face, as if he had just run a marathon.
"What's going on, Duo Ke?" a voice asked, and some lives entered from outside.
Duo Ke wiped the sweat from his eyes and then lay back on the bed, pulling the blanket over himself. After two hours, he finally spoke, a smile appearing on his face.
"I'm lucky I made that decision myself. You'll never guess what I saw."
"That was the collective consciousness of a civilization, but unfortunately, I only had a fleeting glimpse. Everything flashed before my eyes, and I wish I could have stayed a few more seconds, no, even a few more hours."
The highest official of the Federal Silk Road in the universe, an intelligence officer named Fen Ni Li, disagreed with Duo Ke's words, "Your consciousness almost collapsed under the impact of those few seconds. If you had looked for another five seconds, you might have died. That's an amount of information that a life form cannot handle."
Duo Ke neither agreed nor disagreed.
"This also explains why the lives of the Olive Branch Civilization are like machines, doesn't it?"
"Only machines can bear such a vast amount of knowledge and withstand Ge Si Rong Guang."
At this moment, Fen Ni Li obtained the video of Duo Ke's sudden awakening and asked, "King!? What does this mean?"
Duo Ke extended his hand, and a mechanical arm next to him handed him a glass of water. Duo Ke took a small sip, letting the water swirl around his mouth several times before swallowing.
The atmosphere around him became tense with unspoken words.
If Duo Ke didn't speak soon, something X-rated might have happened.
Fortunately, Duo Ke handled the situation well.
"Ge Si Rong Guang can actually be divided into two parts: one part is called the 'People,' and the other part is called the 'King.' The 'People' part consists of all the citizens of the Olive Branch Civilization, while the 'King' part is Ge Si Rong Guang itself."
"From this, I have analyzed the social structure of the Olive Branch Civilization."
"The top layer consists of the first leader and Ge Si Rong Guang itself, and the next layer consists of the managers and all the citizens of the Olive Branch Civilization. This structure is very simple, with no other components."
"But there's one problem: if the structure of the Olive Branch Civilization is so simple, why can't it control the entirety of Xingcheng?"
No one could answer this question.
However, combining it with the 'King' concept, some judgments can be made.
"So, it's the people and the king. The people cannot communicate with the king, and the king cannot see the people's suffering," said a scholar.
Duo Ke nodded.
"Exactly."
"Ge Si Rong Guang itself is high above, and it does not have actual control over the Olive Branch Civilization."
"Isn't it a bit funny that a civilization doesn't have control over itself?"
"But that's how the Olive Branch Civilization is. Why is it like this? This is where we need to look at the reasons for the internal strife of the Olive Branch Civilization."
"We used to think that the Olive Branch Civilization was a single civilization, or even a single race. We were wrong, completely wrong!"
"In fact, the Olive Branch Civilization is a union of multiple civilizations."
After Duo Ke made this conjecture, the atmosphere in the room became tense.
This was something that no scholar, high official, strategist, or intelligence officer knew.
"Was it during the time of the first leader or the second leader?"
Yan Xia had brought back a lot of information, which Duo Ke later compiled into a book called "On the Olive Branch Civilization." This book is still one of the must-reads for scholars, high officials, and even businessmen who come to Xingcheng.
The information about the first and second leaders is also recorded in this book.
"The Olive Branch Civilization was already a second-level civilization before the first leader appeared," Duo Ke said.
In other words, the Olive Branch Civilization was actually a civilization similar to the Federation before the internal strife, but unlike the Federation, which was ruled by Ella and Yan Xia. When individual desires reached their peak, internal strife occurred.
To integrate all civilizations, the first leader transformed all life forms into machines.
This made everyone appear the same on the surface and also gave them eternal life, thus solving the internal strife at that time.
The second leader appeared not long after the first leader, and there should have been some racial conflicts within the Olive Branch Civilization at that time. This might have even been one of the causes of the second civil war. Ge Si Rong Guang perfectly resolved these racial conflicts.
However, the racial conflicts forced Ge Si Rong Guang to make a concession at that time.
That is, Ge Si Rong Guang did not directly rule, but allowed the people's consciousness to merge and become a whole, forming an independent cluster.
The difference here is that Ge Si Rong Guang did not brainwash but merged the consciousness. If forced to merge, the consciousness of all lives would collapse due to strong resistance.
By gradually accepting and integrating, this problem can be solved.
The initial state should have been that everyone could hear each other's voices after the initial integration, and then they would understand, forgive each other, and gradually become a whole. This was a slow process.
"So what?"
What's the point of understanding this?
Duo Ke looked at the questioner, "If you don't use your brain, it's like this. Think carefully with your brain. The king is high above, and the people are humble. Their structure is simple, but they are too divided."
"You don't need me, a practical physicist, to explain the flaws in this conflict and contradiction."
