Chapter 2273 The World Is as Black as Crows!

The vast stars, shining brightly, gathered into shining torrents, expanding to all directions of the dark universe, accompanied by a series of destructive and overwhelming conquest wars, gradually forming the territory star map of today's true human empire.

This is the scene on the west side of the imperial mausoleum, the central hall of the National Museum, above the dome, constantly surging and circulating.

Standing in the center of the National Museum with his hands behind his back, Li Yao's eyes gradually slid from the empire's territorial development map to the front.

Directly in front of you is a black throne inlaid with golden dragon patterns. There is no one on the throne, but a pair of black crystal armor is sitting on a horse with golden swords, protruding the horns of the horns, like a forest of steel, Indescribably ferocious and domineering.

It is said that it was Wu Yingqi, the Black Star Emperor, who used to dominate the wind and clouds and smash the armament of the stars.

Appreciating the black crystal armor up close, Li Yao once again had the feeling that "Black Star Emperor Wu Yingqi's coffin is about to be overwhelmed".

Li Linghai, the Empress of the Empire, ventured back to the imperial capital, so she naturally had a comprehensive plan, and she would never rush back to the palace to die.

Inside and outside the imperial mausoleum, there are millions of imperial guards, miscellaneous generals and disabled veterans, as well as countless outraged citizens. It is the safest place in the imperial capital at the moment.

She stayed here on the pretext of comforting many wronged officers and soldiers.

Out of some sense of irony, she even used the National Museum as a temporary base camp, and transformed the office areas of the staff on the top two floors into her own secret meeting room and command center.

Li Yao is Li Linghai's personal bodyguard in name, but he knows that Li Linghai has inherited the emperor's inheritance and possesses the legendary "Heaven's Destiny Supernatural Ability". protection of.

Except for occasionally acting in front of people, Li Yao was happy and at ease. He spent a few days visiting the National Museum of the Real Human Empire thoroughly, and gained a deeper understanding of the history of the True Human Empire. Observe the many relics of the Black Star Emperor Wu Yingqi.

Naturally, this was something he never dreamed of before sneaking into the Real Human Empire alone.

Li Yao wished he could send his dreamlike experience back to Star Federation immediately, and give Ding Lingdang and Jin Xinyue a big surprise.

It's a pity that he has been staying with Li Linghai, Lei Chenghu and hundreds of immortal cultivators ever since "City of the Sky, Manzhushahua" was blown up by him. Where, if you build your own ultra-long-distance communication base station, you will have no chance to contact your hometown.

I can only continue to compress my belly full of wild laughter, and wait for the future to release it slowly.

Climbing up the steps, they came to the third floor of the National Museum. When they were facing the window of the imperial mausoleum, they saw Li Jialing looking into the distance, looking at the rows of people worshiping the Black Star Emperor Wu Yingqi in the distance.

"You have been watching these people intently for the past few days."

Li Yao walked over and said, "You still have a thoughtful expression all day long, what, what are you thinking?"

"nothing."

Li Jialing shook his head, remained silent for a while, and couldn't help but said, "I just feel that these people are pitiful and pathetic, and they are being used no matter what, just like me, who have been used since I was born."

Li Yao was slightly startled, and said: "I don't know if Her Highness the Queen is using these people, but as far as I am concerned, I sincerely want to help these people get what they deserve, whether it is military exploits, dignity, or not. Or just...the power to survive.

"This approach may be radical and extreme, and may even bring extreme risks, but they can no longer survive. This is the only chance and the last chance."

Li Jialing looked at Li Yao in surprise: "They are immortal cultivators."

"Yes, they are immortal cultivators."

Li Yao sighed and said, "Cultivators of immortality are naturally the greatest enemies of cultivators, and these 'miscellaneous generals and light-handed commanders' are not good men and women who eat vegetarian food and recite Buddhism. Many of them are bullying and dominating the market in their hometowns. people, even the executioners who brutally suppressed popular resistance.

"But one size fits all, no matter how many heinous crimes they have committed, at least they have contributed to resisting the invasion of the Holy League and defending human civilization.

"No matter what their motivation for participating in the 'Empire Strikes Back' is, even if it's just for personal fame and fortune, at least from an objective point of view, without the fighting and sacrifice of these immortal cultivators, perhaps the stars would have been killed by the Holy League long ago. Those puppets occupied and even collected enough resources and energy to revive thousands of Pangu clans, which would be the ultimate irreversible disaster for human civilization.

"Contributions cannot offset sins, and sins should not cover up merits. These people are both criminals and heroes. I would like to see these immortal cultivators stand on the judgment stand to accept the punishment they deserved because of their past sins, and even confess to them with their own hands. Canonical punishment, but I absolutely don't want to see them being kicked away after fighting everything for human civilization, and dying silently like dogs in the depths of the poor streets.

"Can you figure out the difference between the two?"

Li Jialing thought seriously for a moment, then nodded.

"not to mention"

Li Yao said, "Even if these 'miscellaneous generals' have committed unforgivable crimes in the past, these disabled veterans, these low-level immortal cultivators in the Qi refining period and foundation building period, can still... how should I put it, mine The meaning is not that they are not guilty, but that if they can change the soil, the system, and the education model, they may not be able to become cultivators.

"It is impossible for me to kill all the cultivators in the center of the star sea, but I really want to find a way to completely destroy the soil that breeds these cultivators."

Li Yao looked over Li Jialing's shoulders, and cast his eyes on the rows of ordinary imperial veterans walking forward to pay homage to the giant statue of Black Star Emperor Wu Yingqi, and his feelings were really deep.

Li Yao himself was a "disabled veteran" of the Star Federation. Whether he took the college entrance examination when he was a boy, or returned to the Federation and was slandered as a blood demon, he finally got through the difficulties with the selfless help of the veterans.

He has a deep affection for the military, for veterans.

Although the Real Human Empire is an enemy country, he can't hate these horrible veterans who have sacrificed everything in the war against the Holy Alliance and defending human civilization.

They are also disabled veterans, the gap is really too big, what is going on in this country, Li Yao can't help but fall into deep thought.

"The four major elector families are too stupid and too greedy, including Prime Minister Dongfang Wang."

Li Jialing couldn't believe it, "Don't they know that this is an act of 'shaking the foundation of the country' and that it is going to cause a big mess? Why didn't they know how to solve it properly beforehand? It's too much!"

"It can only be said that the real world is not playing games. It is impossible for those in power to press a button lightly and make everyone below obey orders 100% like a machine."

Li Yaodao: "Even with the strength of Wu Yingqi, the Black Star Emperor, there are still people who hide their minions and hide their ulterior motives, and finally breed a cancer like the four big families? How can they control all the people below with a mere look in the east?" ?

"I believe that with the pattern, vision and wisdom of Dongfangwang, I must have known the consequences of abolishing generals and ignoring disabled veterans, but manpower is sometimes poor. What can he do if the disabled veteran's pension is too much to pluck out and to embezzle wantonly?"

Li Jialing frowned and said, "Dongfang Wang is known as the 'Iron-Blooded Prime Minister', so he can't even solve this trivial matter. If someone dares to embezzle even the disability pension, he will be arrested and beheaded!"

"If the person who embezzled is a god-turning old monster with profound experience and entangled influence, should he be killed too?"

Li Yao asked, "If the person who embezzled was a Huashen of the Li family, and the other Li family's Huashen had to protect him, would he still be able to kill all the Huashen of the Li family? If the person who embezzled was a Huashen of the Dongfang family, Dongfang Wang Can you still cut off your limbs and kill your own Huashen? If it doesn’t matter whether it is the Li family, the Dongfang family or the other two, all the powerful members of the four major families have already formed hidden rules. The world is as black as crows, and there is no one who is not greedy Yes, what about Dongfangwang?"

Li Jialing was stunned for a long time and said: "These peerless powerhouses with outstanding computing power, don't they all think about the consequences, why are they so greedy and short-sighted?"

"This has nothing to do with greed, stupidity, or short-sightedness. In the final analysis, it's all about the system, or going deeper, it's about ideas and morality, which have grown crooked from the root."

Li Yao said, "It is precisely because the cultivators hold the concept of 'the weak eat the strong, the winner is king', the strong become the winner, the winner can take everything, the weak become the loser, and the loser will lose everything.

"Therefore, any rational cultivator has an extremely strong motivation to plunder all resources and interests and constantly strengthen himself.

"As for whether this method of plundering is reasonable and legal, and whether it will cause any catastrophic consequences in the long run, it is impossible to consider.

"Because, if you don't plunder wildly now, you will become weak and loser in the short term, and you will lose everything in the brutal internal competition. What's the long-term and overall interests?

"The vast majority of rational, immortal cultivators with normal thinking ability, as long as they have the opportunity, will definitely 'pluck the wild goose's feathers and corrupt wantonly' to improve their chances of survival, and once any resources are in their pockets, they will often lose It is extremely difficult to take it out again, it is something that reduces one's chances of survival, how can a normal person agree?

"Perhaps thousands of years ago, when the True Human Empire was just born, there were still some 'ideal and moral' immortal cultivators, that is, the 'pure immortal cultivators' like Lei Chenghu, but in the long competition for survival, these Immortal cultivators are doomed to be eliminated, just like these miscellaneous generals and disabled veterans who are fighting desperately are doomed to be eliminated without our presence.

"All immortal cultivators who sacrificed heroically and fought desperately were eliminated. Only the most selfish, shameless, daring, and most daring cultivators survived. After such "reverse screening" from generation to generation, the remaining immortal cultivators What does it look like, do you need to say?

"Today's real human empire is made up of tens of thousands of immortal cultivators. Under the seemingly glamorous appearance, rotten pus flows horizontally, grotesque, and demons dance chaotically. Even if the top people want to There is no way to turn the tide, any top-down means of reform will degenerate into an excuse for interest groups to further squeeze the bottom, making the situation of the bottom of society worse and worse, what is so strange about this happening?"
