Chapter 319 The Law of the Jungle

To be honest, Duanmu Huai also knew that what he said would definitely bring uneasiness and fear to the girls, but he also had to explain it.

Because, that's the truth.

The universe is not a romantic place, just like the jungle. When you enter the jungle for the first time, you will be shocked by its beauty, magnificence, and mystery.

Then, you will immediately feel what is the law of the jungle.

The weak eat the strong.

Yes, the beautiful jungle is never peaceful. Carnivores hide deep in the jungle and attack their prey with eager eyes. Herbivores devour those beautiful plants and use them as their own nourishment. Fireflies flying in the air are pecked by birds, and the birds become a meal for other animals.

The strong devours the weak, and power is justice.

This is the law of the jungle.

The same goes for the universe.

Duanmu Huai rarely uses the word "justice" to describe himself and the trial court, because to put it bluntly, in the final analysis, the so-called justice means the majority of violence. The essence of the victory of justice over evil is that the majority defeats the minority. And within this, the nature of justice is constantly changing. With the development of civilization and the evolution of the times, the definition of justice is also constantly changing.

For example, slavery, in the eyes of modern people, is naturally barbaric, backward and evil. Not to mention the sacrificial burials and human sacrifices, which are simply bloody and do not treat people as human beings.

But how long did slavery exist? 1500 years.

What about feudal society? Ignorance, backwardness, decadence, constant feudal superstition, and a clear hierarchy.

But it lasted for 2000 years.

If it is a fairy tale, then evil obviously cannot last for so long, because justice will eventually defeat evil... Haha, that's nonsense.

The biggest reason why these systems have been able to last for so long is that people support them. And once the majority of people do not recognize and support these systems, it will be a matter of time before they are overturned. At that time, what was originally justice has become evil, and what was once evil has become justice.

Just like in ancient times, when the emperor crusaded against those peasant uprisings, he always issued a proclamation, denounced these rebels for causing trouble in the world, being unjust for profit, disobeying orthodoxy, deceiving the public with evil words, etc. The rebels denounced the current failure of the imperial court, the complaints of the people, the emperor's lack of moral integrity, the corruption and bribery of the imperial court, and the people's livelihood...

In the eyes of both parties, everything they do is justice, and the other party is evil.

However, in the end, only one party's justice can survive.

Throughout history, basically in the early dynasty, most of the "justice" who "maintained the royal power" won, while the "evil" who "camped against the court" failed. But in the late dynasty, the original justice of "maintaining the royal power" failed, and instead the "evil" of those who "disobeyed the emperor" won.

It boils down to the transfer of most violence.

This is the so-called principle of gaining a lot of help and losing a lot of help.

When most people have vested interests, they will of course find ways to maintain a system that is in their own interests. And those who resist this system will fail.

In turn, when the majority of people become victims of the system, they will naturally rise up to resist the system and overthrow it.

This is why slavery and feudalism endured for thousands of years and were later overthrown.

With the development of productivity and social progress, the rigid system has not kept up with the changing times, resulting in uneven distribution of benefits. Most people are squeezed under this system and will naturally feel resentment and lead to rebellion.

Therefore, in the final analysis, what most people agree on is justice, both in ancient and modern times.

There is justice in quantity and truth in firepower.

No matter how gorgeous the rhetoric is, it cannot resist reality.

Just like during the Three Kingdoms period, Yuan Shao wrote "An Essay on Yuzhou for Yuan Shao" to attack Cao Cao. It was written impassionedly and compared Cao Cao to Zhao Gao, who caused trouble in the Qin Dynasty, and the Lu family, who conspired to usurp the Han Dynasty. He called on everyone to "raise troops and rage, and punish the barbarians for their rebellion." ". Even Cao Cao broke into a cold sweat after reading it. He even ignored his headache and jumped up from the bed, almost scared to death.

However, there is no use in killing eggs. Everyone knows who has the last laugh in the Three Kingdoms.

This is also the reason why Duanmuhuai decided that the Tribunal will not intervene in the internal war of mankind, because the internal war of mankind is ultimately a cleansing and evolution of the system. What kind of system can allow human civilization to develop, in the final analysis, is for them You have the final say. Therefore, it is meaningless to claim to help justice defeat evil. If the end and reform of the system are historical inevitability, then the intervention of the Tribunal will only delay it but not stop it. Therefore, in this case, even if the human society has a dog's brain, , Duanmu Huai will not care.

If you want to prove that your system and beliefs are superior to the other party, then you must show victory to prove it.

No loser can dominate the development of human history, both in ancient and modern times.

But when it comes to external issues, that's another story.

As Duanmuhuai said to An, this is the same as having too many humans to reclaim wasteland forests and then being attacked by local native creatures. Aliens are such a threat, and the development of productivity is the guarantee for the evolution and survival of human society. Therefore, in order to protect mankind, the Inquisition will take action to eliminate or expel them.

In fact, similar plots are not uncommon in games, so they have also caused discussions among players. Many players also expressed their disgust with this plot, because in their opinion, this is just like the white people colonizing America and killing the natives and robbing their property. It is an evil act and is not worth promoting.

However, some players said that this analogy is incorrect. First of all, the native Americans are also human beings, and the aliens are not human beings. The two sides are not the same race at all, so how can they be compared. According to your statement, pigs are also very smart, and cows are also emotional. People should not kill them for meat, and use cows as coolies. What is the difference between this and enslaving aliens? Just because the other party looks like a human, they are given a break?

Secondly, they are not for their own selfish desires, but for the development of mankind. So what you mean is that for the sake of that illusory justice, you just sit back and watch humans die? You are happy, right! You are hypocritical! Humans will do anything to survive. You let your compatriots die for the so-called morality. You are not worthy of being human at all! It's simply human treason!

No matter what the reason, betraying humanity is unforgivable!

If Duanmu Huai posted this task on the forum, it would probably be a hundred stories long.

But he didn't need to do that, after all, he had made his choice.

So Duanmu Huai took hundreds of Star Army soldiers and boarded a moon-class cruiser to the location Dardanelle said, and contacted him. Dardanelle was naturally surprised to learn that the Inquisition was willing to help him.

"Thank you so much, Your Excellency the Inquisitor, I didn't expect..."

"Don't talk nonsense."

Duanmu Huai waved his hand, interrupting Dardanelle's speech, and then he stared at Dardanelle.

"I do this not for you, nor for profit, but for humanity. For the Inquisition, humanity is always our goal to protect, so if I find that you have done something harmful to humanity... do you understand what I mean?"

"... Of course, Your Excellency the Inquisitor, I understand very well."

"That's good."

Hearing Dardanelle's answer, Duanmu Huai nodded.

"About that side, it's OK to leave it all to us."

"Of course, I have already issued an order to the front-line base over there, asking them to all follow your command. If you need anything, you can also contact me directly."

"That's good."

Duanmu Huai cut off the communication, then looked at the planet in front of him and issued an order.

"Let's go."

At the same time, Pandora front-line base.

"Hey, the atmosphere here seems a little unusual today?"

While looking at the supplies and personnel that had just been delivered, a soldier patrolling with a gun nearby looked at his companion curiously and asked. After all, you know, they were called up early in the morning today to patrol the entire base, saying that they were going to welcome some big shots.

"Didn't you hear?"

Looking at his colleagues, another soldier curled his lips.

"It seems that the higher-ups are very dissatisfied with the current progress of the base, so they sent new people to take over here."

"What a joke."

Hearing this, the soldier's face suddenly sank.

"The higher-ups don't know how dangerous this place is. Are they planning to send us to die in the jungle?"

"Well, this is not a question for you to consider."

At this time, another veteran came over and glanced at everyone seriously.

"The higher-ups have issued orders, and we just need to obey! Don't worry, I heard that this time, the higher-ups knew that we couldn't deal with those blue guys in the jungle, so they sent a stronger team."

"A stronger team? What? They can't send an army."

"That's not necessarily true... Hey, everyone, be alert, they're coming!"

At this moment, the veteran seemed to have received the message and shouted loudly, and then saw the soldiers around him quickly gathered. Then, they saw several strangely shaped black planes whizzing through the sky, coming to the top of the airport in front of them, and slowly descending.

"What the hell is this?"

Looking at the strange aircraft in front of them, everyone was stunned. Not only were the shapes of these aircraft very different from the aerospace aircraft they knew, but even the weapons equipped on them were also unique. Not only that, all the aircraft have golden skull and hammer patterns on the sides and front.

"Hey, this looks just like the villain robots in the animations I watched when I was a kid."

"Shut up."

Looking at these strange fighters in front of them, the soldiers next to them whispered to each other, but soon, when the hatch opened and a dark, huge figure appeared in front of them, all the soldiers shut up.

"What the hell are these...?"

Looking at the two-and-a-half-meter-tall black armored giants slowly walking down from the fighters, the soldiers were all stunned. Although they also have exoskeleton mechanical armor that is more than three meters high, compared with those mechanical armors with thin arms and legs, these warriors wearing black armor look more burly and majestic, and the guns they hold in their hands are even more hideous and terrifying. Not to mention the shining skull and hammer logo on their chests, it is even more terrifying.

"Hey, hello, sir."

When Duanmu Huai walked into the base, he soon saw a man coming up with a smile.

"I am Parker, the head of the base. I welcome you and your men to the Hell Gate Base..."

"Hell Gate?"

Hearing this name, Duanmu Huai sneered.

"This place is far worse than hell."

"Uh... that..."

"I'm not here to talk nonsense with you. You should understand the purpose of our coming."

"Yes, sir. From now on, this base will be completely taken over by you..."

Speaking of this, Parker was obviously relieved. It's no wonder that being the head of an alien base is indeed a very face-saving thing.

But being a head without any progress is another matter.

He will change his job from the head to the scapegoat.

Now, although the position has been removed, at least he doesn't have to worry about changing his job to the scapegoat.

"You are still in charge of everything in this base. I am not here to play house. First of all, please introduce it to me."

"Of course..."

Parker nodded, and then respectfully took Duanmu Huai to introduce the entire base. According to Parker's introduction, the entire Hell Gate Base is divided into the Space Launch Center, Equipment Center, Apartment Center, and Research Center.

The Space Launch Center is used for space transportation, the Equipment Center is mainly for equipment maintenance and production of ammunition and mining equipment, and the Apartment Center is the residence of the base personnel.

As for the Research Center...

"What are these things?"

When Duanmu Huai walked into the research center and looked at the long blue elves in the life support cabin, his brows immediately frowned.

"Oh, this is one of the important research of the Life Laboratory, the Na'vi clones."

Seeing that Duanmu Huai was interested in this thing, Director Parker also hurriedly introduced it.

"We are currently unable to communicate with the Na'vi people, so the Life Laboratory proposed this plan. They want to use the Life Connection System to attach their consciousness to these cloned Na'vi people, and then integrate into the Na'vi tribe, communicate with them, and persuade them..."

"Humph!"

However, before Director Parker finished speaking, he was interrupted by Duanmu Huai's cold snort. He looked at the Na'vi clones in front of him with disgust, and then waved his hand.

"Get rid of all these damn aliens immediately! We don't need this meaningless junk!"

"Huh?"

Hearing Duanmu Huai's order, Director Parker was shocked, but before he could say anything else, suddenly, a voice sounded.

"What did you say? How dare you do this!"

Duanmu Huai turned his head and saw a woman standing at the door, glaring at him, and walking towards him aggressively.

"Who are you?"

"She is Dr. Grace Augustine."

Director Parker also hurriedly introduced.

"The person in charge of the entire Life Laboratory and the person in charge of the Avatar Project..."

"For God's sake, what are you idiots who can only pull the trigger doing here?"

Grace came to Duanmu Huai angrily and stared at her, while the latter stared coldly at the woman in front of him.

"Let's complete our mission. As for you and your deformed research, it is meaningless, so you must be dealt with."

"Deformed research? You don't understand what you are talking about at all!"

"I understand very well."

Duanmu Huai reached out and grabbed Grace's neck and lifted her up directly, then he stared at Grace fiercely.

"You put your consciousness into this disgusting alien body, experience their feelings, and live with them - then, ma'am, I want to ask you, do you still think you are human?"

"……………………"

At this moment, facing Duanmu Huai's question, Grace... was speechless for a while.

"I hope you can remember that the purpose of our coming here is not to investigate the ecological environment of this planet, but for the development and survival of mankind. But you seem to be addicted to playing the role of an alien, sharing the same fate with these alien creatures. Perhaps you have forgotten that at this moment on your home planet, there are still tens of billions of humans suffering from the hardships of life."

Speaking of this, Duanmu Huai shook his hand and threw Grace out directly, then he turned his head and looked at Parker.

"From now on, the Life Laboratory will be completely closed, and this woman and others will be thrown into the return spacecraft. They seem to have lived here for too long, so comfortable that they have forgotten what kind of life humans are currently living. I think that letting them return to the heavily polluted planet where people live in a miserable way will make them savor this."

Speaking of this, Duanmu Huai glanced at the Na'vi clones.

"As for these lowly alien creatures..."

As he spoke, Duanmu Huai made a gesture, and then the next moment, two dark night guards came forward, raised their guns, and pulled the trigger at these cloned aliens.

“Bang bang bang bang bang!!!”

With the sound of gunshots, the Na'vi people in the survival cabin were suddenly beaten to pieces and bloody, while the researchers screamed in fear and fell to the ground with their heads in their hands. Dr. Grace fell to the ground, biting her lip, looking at the scene in front of her, her face pale and livid.

Duanmu Huai turned his head, stared at her, and snorted coldly.

"Communicate? You don't even have the courage to communicate with them as a human being, but you can only use this method. It is really stupid. You gave up the pride and pride of mankind and indulged in boring research... You are no longer here It’s no place for you, so get out!”

Having said this, Duanmuhuai looked at Director Parker again, who shuddered hurriedly under Duanmuhuai's breathtaking eyes.

"I, I know, I will immediately notify others to send Dr. Grace and her research team back to Earth..."

"very good."

Duanmuhuai nodded.

"I hope you can explain to the company that when recruiting personnel in the future, it is best to consider their background and thoughts instead of... looking for some anti-human and anti-social traitors to come here to cause trouble."

After saying this, Duanmu Huai turned around and left with the night guard.

Behind him, Dr. Grace glared at Duanmuhuai's back angrily, both eyes about to burst out with fire.

However...there was nothing she could do.
