Chapter 915: Been Here (Part 2)

The sun is always bright. Even though it is thousands of miles away, when the sun shines on the earth, it still brings warmth and vitality.

But if you observe this vigorous and mature star up close, you can feel the surging heat and the soul-stirring natural power.

Above the Mercury base, you can see a bigger sun. This light that cannot be looked at directly becomes weak in front of the extraordinary ability and technological equipment. From this perspective, you can see more mysterious and beautiful patterns.

Standing on the roof of the Mercury base, looking at the surging solar particles, Stark turned to Schiller and said, "Who do you think is right, the Skrulls or the Kree?"

"The Skrulls said that they just want to build the universe. They are the ones who paid, but they did not get any reward. On the contrary, they suffered heavy losses in the Millennium War. The Kree are shameful thieves and betrayers."

"The Kree thinks that the Skrulls' help to other civilizations threatens their living space. They plundered the Skrulls' technology just to protect themselves. The so-called great ideal is just an excuse to satisfy hegemony."

"They each have their own opinions. Who do you think is right?"

"Maybe they are both right?" Schiller also looked at the sun and said, "Impure Ideals and impure people are doomed to tragedy. "

"The greed of the Kotati and Kree for technology and resources, and the arrogance of the Skrulls who think they can determine the direction of the universe, together constitute this tragedy."

Schiller suddenly smiled, as if he thought of something interesting. He looked at Stark and said, "Let me ask you, if one day, an advanced civilization like the Skrulls descended on the earth and showed their infinite power..."

"They told humans that you are going to participate in a competition, and the winner can get their resources and technology. What do you think humans will do? "

Hearing this question, Stark showed an extremely complicated expression, helpless, absurd, and funny. He said, "Although this kind of thing did not happen, I can already imagine that situation. "

"The first to jump out are definitely not the debaters who want to participate in the competition or not, but the questioners."

"We will question whether the other party's technology is really that strong? What is the ultimate purpose of this competition? Is this a conspiracy? Do they have other plans for humans?"

Stark still couldn't help it. He laughed "snorted" and continued: "Although we are poor, very weak, and almost useless, we always suspect that all intelligent life is trying to murder us5."

"And after a wave of discussion, there will definitely be participants and non-participants, as well as those who disdain and pretend not to hear. But it is conceivable that the members of these factions will definitely use various "If this powerful civilization gives a deadline of ten years, they will argue for ten years. If the deadline is a hundred years, they will argue for a hundred years." "Besides, humans are not only suspicious, but also forgetful." "Perhaps, when these aliens come to inspect the results with great expectations, humans may have already forgotten them." Schiller crossed his arms and said, "Really? That's all you can think of? So how would you deal with this matter from your personal perspective?" Stark paused, then said, "You asked the key question. If there really is a group of strange aliens who run to the sky above the earth and ask us to participate in the competition, the first thing I think of may not be how to win the competition, or even how to participate in the competition." "I would think, since their technological strength is so strong, they come here in spaceships and equipment, so why should we go far away and participate in any competition? Why not just leave them here? Wouldn't we get the resources and technology we want? "

At this time, he seemed to react suddenly, and then said: "Since the Kree have a way to get the Skrull warships, why don't they do it from the beginning? Why do they want to participate in the competition?"

Just after saying this, Stark was stunned again. He touched his chin and said: "Of course, this must be because I have been with you for a long time. People who are close to you are red, and people who are close to you are black. My moral bottom line has declined. It must be your problem..."

"If you are infected with this part of the conclusion by me, then shouldn't you think more deeply about your inner answer?" Schiller said.

Stark frowned and began to think. He said: ",... my inner answer? What else is in my heart... Well, when I first heard you say this idea, my first reaction was not this conclusion. "

"When you said that they showed infinite power, my first reaction was one, is it true?"

Stark explained again: "What is the so-called infinite power? A huge spaceship? Advanced navigation technology? Star Wars weapons with sufficient firepower? ”

“After these questions arose, my first thought was, can’t I make it?”

"Other people's resources and technology are ultimately theirs. They give us a spaceship, but if it breaks down, we have to ask them to repair it. They give us energy, but if it runs out, we have to ask them for it."

"I'd rather be a poor guy than a beggar."

"The road of exploration has no end. The so-called infinite power is just a small threshold on the road of scientific exploration. They walk faster than me, but it doesn't mean they will walk farther than me."

"If the Kree had thought the same as you, they wouldn't have fought back and forth with the current New Skrull Empire."

After that, Schiller concluded: "In this scenario, you should have discovered that the only thing that can defeat greed is deeper greed, and the only thing that can defeat arrogance is Greater arrogance. "

"Humans will never be satisfied. The victory condition you promised was one spaceship, and we want ten. You promised ten spaceships, and we want to swallow up the fleet you sent."

"Humans don't think about how to win the game, but how to destroy the game."

"The moment we sit down at the table, there is only one goal, that is, to defeat all opponents, including the dealer. No one can escape unscathed."

"And what makes you refuse the help of higher civilizations is not restraint and reason, but the arrogance that will surpass them sooner or later. As a surface creature, you have begun to despise the arrogance of interstellar civilizations."

"Okay, I admit it." Stark nodded and said, "I am arrogant. What about Skrull scientists? Has that Arengail made any decent achievements? ”

“The so-called top scientists of the Skrull Empire have worked in my laboratory for so long, and the only decent result they have produced is the application of the dark elf light masking technology.”

Stark touched the eye part of his visor and said, “So far, this technology can only make us see the sun less glaring. If we really want to achieve instant cooling and heat shielding, there are still several technical difficulties to overcome.”

“The Skrull genius scientists are just like this, and the so-called three empires in the universe are just developing earlier and moving faster.”

“A hundred years of gap is just that I am busy for a while, a thousand years of gap is just that the genius scientists of all mankind are busy for a while, and the gap of ten thousand years... I have to say that Peter did a good job. In, the villain scientists and Spider -Man in the diverse universe still made a lot of contributions. "The face under Stark's nails showed a smile. He said," How ridiculous, most humans now can't even leave the earth. Haoyue competes, but because of the brightness of Haoyue, but now, we not only know the brightness of Haoyue, but also got a spacecraft and hit the moon directly. "Stark shook his head and said to Sille," You are helping this kind of greed and arrogance, so that this small fireflies are prematurely mastered the way to blow up the moon, so we don't have any anymore. Any awe ... "" But sometimes I am thinking about what extent do you want to do? If you do n’t have a magnificent goal, what you do for these universe empires are actually redundant. " It is not a fight. "Schiller shook his head and said, "Defeat them, conquer them, and destroy them. This is a road that is doomed to destruction."

"I am willing to provide more help to Asgard, not only because they are the masters of the nine kingdoms and can provide protection for mankind, but more importantly, they have reached the end of the road of conquest."

"They have tried and failed for us. This road is not feasible. The Ragnarok may be brought by some mysterious existence that we do not know yet, or it may be the will of this universe."

"But in short, the growing power, the wars and chaos that are constantly created will only bring destruction. With the lessons of Asgard, humans do not have to go this way anymore."

"Then what do you want to do?" Stark asked.

"The Skrulls' ideals are good, but this seems to be a doomed tragedy."

"Using limited resources to export without seeking returns will inevitably weaken oneself, but if you seek returns, people's hearts will inevitably fall into the judgment of gains and losses, thus forgetting the original ideals. "

"The more you care about interests, the more you forget your original intentions. In the end, you will inevitably lose support for those who have lost their principles. If you want to restore your reputation, you can only take the road of conquest and destruction."

"It sounds like a dead end, but in fact, this is only based on the premise that resources are limited. What if there are unlimited resources?"

"But the mass of the universe is certain." Stark emphasized.

"Yes, this raises another question. After the productivity reaches its limit, under the premise that all resources in the universe can be maximized, are the resources in the universe enough to feed all civilizations?"

Stark shook his head and said, "Civilizations are constantly being born, and more and more resources are needed. If all civilizations can develop steadily to their peak and never perish, then the universe will eventually be unable to support them."

"You said that the road of conquest and destruction is not feasible, so is this road definitely feasible?"

"Not necessarily." To Stark's surprise, Schiller gave a straightforward negative answer, and then said, "But if you don't let me go to the end of this road, you will never be able to convince me that this road will not succeed."

"But then again, if I really climb to the top, reach the top, and bring all the intelligent life in all the universes to find an ultimate answer for all civilizations, but still fail, I have already found a reason to comfort myself."

"After all, those who have taken this road have long understood from the fall of a behemoth that this road is not about reaching the end. Only then can you win."

"Only after trying can you know the vastness of the sky and the vastness of the sea. What is important is not necessarily the result, but also... having been here."
