Chapter 330 The Future of the Taruru Tribe
Treat them as tools?
He really speaks the truth, not shying away at all.
But what can they do?
After all, the initiative is in his hands, not in their own hands.
There is also a fleet of theirs watching in the orbit of Taruru Star.
If they make any move of resistance, their fellow tribesmen living on Giant Sword Star will suffer.
"Don't worry about the supplies. I will send people to deliver them regularly. So, do you have any questions?"
"Well, can I ask a question?"
Elsa raised her hand and asked carefully.
Looking at Elsa wearing a veil, Li Meng said: "Tell me, what questions do you have?"
"King, can you tell us what you want to do?"
The king's fleet is obviously very powerful, why does he need pirates like them?
"There are some things that we can't do, so we can only find a spokesperson. This is why we are looking for you. As for what I will do, you will know it one day. It's no good for you to know it now. If you don't have any other questions, just disperse."
Li Meng ended the topic. At this time, he couldn't tell anyone his purpose.
Especially the pirates in front of him, if they knew, they might think of running away.
After all, their racial justice is based on their own safety.
If it is a mission that must be killed, everyone will have the instinct to save themselves.
At that time, people other than themselves will not be so important.
In this world, any race has heroes who sacrifice their lives for others, and there are also people who live for their own lives.
Compared with the former, the latter has a larger base.
Then, the meeting ended.
After leaving the meeting room, Sayaha and his party seemed to be worried.
They had a feeling that they had been caught up in a major event since the moment they came to Doyle Star.
At this time, they were already deeply involved and could not extricate themselves.
And the "king" would not allow them to escape from the upcoming major events.
After returning to the fleet, the Sayaha Pirates did not rush to land on the planet.
Instead, they held a secret meeting on the flagship.
"Aisha, among all the people here, only you have the most thorough thoughts and can think of problems that we can't think of or realize. What do you think about the current situation we are facing? How should we go on in the future?"
Everyone was silent about the leader's words.
Most people here can't learn to think about problems.
They like to fight and love to fight. If they are asked to rob merchant ships, they will be excited to do it.
But if they are asked to think about problems, they don't have the ability.
Among the Taruru tribe, only Aisha is an exception.
After all, she is the descendant of a prophet.
And the prophet represents the wise in Taruru.
The reason why the Sayaha Pirates were able to rise two hundred years ago was because of the guidance of a prophet.
But after the death of the prophet, the Sayaha Pirates, who lost their ability to think, also declined.
In the end, even the tribe members were implicated, and only one in ten survived.
Facing the gazes of the crowd, Elsa was silent.
After a while, she asked, "Why do we always appear as pirates in the eyes of others? Whether it was hundreds of years ago or now, it has always been like this and has never changed."
Elsa's question confused everyone for a while.
If they don't become pirates, what else can they do?
At this time, Aisha said again: "Because we did not enter the starry sky by our own strength, we were forced to become interstellar people. We have no technology, let alone industry, and our lives are still very primitive, but we know that there are other alien races outside the sky. Because of the harsh environment of the planet, we can only live by plundering, and we have to embark on the road of universal piracy. Two hundred years ago, my mother realized this problem. She wanted to cultivate the Prophet Clan, obtain technology from the outside, use it for herself, and then mobilize the whole tribe to develop industry. However, that generation of Sayah was unwilling to change the pirate lifestyle, which led to the massacre of my mother and the Prophet Council, which was beginning to take shape. Now the Prophet Clan has been annihilated among all living beings, and is not enough to carry the banner of a racial revival. Relying on ourselves alone, the Taruru Clan has lost the possibility of revival. No matter how hard we try, we can only slow down the time of the Taruru Clan's demise, but one day, the Taruru Clan will disappear in the long river of history."
Hearing this, everyone was silent.
They knew that Aisha's words were not alarmist.
Because in just half a century, the population of the Taruru Clan has decreased by one third.
There are fewer and fewer newborns, and the living environment is getting worse.
Even with their help, the tribes are still very poor.
Some tribes have even disappeared.
"Aisha, what should we do?"
"We can't control what the previous Sayahas did, but we must learn from them."
"It's too late now. Only the Prophet Clan has the brains to engage in technology and industry, but the Prophet Clan has long since declined."
"Dong Dong..."
Sayaha knocked on the table to stop the captains' noise.
The captains who were talking suddenly quieted down.
Seeing the conference room quiet down, Sayaha looked at Aisha.
"Aisha, nothing is absolute. As a descendant of the Prophet Clan, you must have a way to change the status quo."
Aisha did not deny Sayaha's words.
"If it was impossible before, but now, everything is different. Since we can't revive the race by ourselves, we can only rely on external forces. The appearance of the "King" just gave us the opportunity to get rid of the pirate identity. It is natural for the weak to submit to the strong. If we want to revive the race, we can only force the entire race to submit to the "King" and become the "King's" subjects."
Aisha has learned about the history of alien civilizations and administrative structures.
The title of King comes from the imperial system.
The "king" must have a very special status in his civilization.
Submitting to the "king" will give Taruru a powerful external force.
The "king" said that he would find a new home for the Taruru tribe after the matter was over.
With such conditions, it became a matter of course to submit to the "king".
Submit to the "king"?
Aisha's words made the captains look at each other in bewilderment.
Just as Aisha said, it is natural for the weak to submit to the strong.
The king is a strong man, and everyone has no objection to submitting to the "king".
It is better to be a subject of the "king" than a tool of the "king".
"Then who will express our submission to the "king"? Captain, it is not possible. Sayaha represents the pirate group, not the entire Taruru tribe. Among the Taruru tribe, only the prophet is recognized by all tribes. Aisha, this matter can only be done by you."
