As the founder of the millennium developnt the for the ngdu Group, Barton Augustus suddenly felt a chill on his forehead.
His conscience was troubled, of course he felt uneasy.
Fortunately, Ren Zhong then imdiately turned his gaze aside and continued, "I am just reading the orders. How to execute them next is for you to discuss. You have ten minutes to hold a closed-door eting, and after the discussion, present your plan to ."
After saying this, Ren Zhong sat back on the sofa, closed his eyes, assuming an air of calm detachnt.
At this mont, he appeared serene, like an ancient well with no ripples.
His heartbeat frequency was also very normal.
But no one knew that at this ti, he was actually extrely nervous inside.
After acting for so long, now was the mont he truly laid his cards on the table.
All the previous observation, bluffing, and weaving of lies were part of the process; leaving a spark of civilization for the Source Star was the goal.
However, within the laws of the chanical Empire, there were explicit stipulations regarding the colonial expansion of civilization.
The thods of colonization were divided into many levels, among which the Tracker Spaceship represented the lowest level.
The task of the Tracer colonial team was to plunder and produce. The usual managent thod was to first arrive at a planet, then use frozen embryos for rapid population reproduction, and in a span of a few hundred to over a thousand years, quickly exhaust much of the star system's potential, sweeping important resources away upon departure.
These important resources included various materials as well as the brains of the bred colonists. Anyway, human brains were real resources that could be taken away.
As for the population?
In the face of mass reproduction technology using frozen embryos, under the strict hierarchical Imperial system, the lower-level population had little value; their greatest value was really just to provide human brains and serve as tool-like worker ants.
Before leaving, the colonial team also had to conduct a thorough cleanup of the planet to prevent a weak colony from falling into the hands of patrol scouts from the other three forces, which would expose the technological features and route of the Empire, much like soldiers in ancient wars burying cooking pits before breaking camp.
If any Tracker colonial team was required to leave a population in the colonized star system, usually, there was only one scenario.
That was receiving explicit orders from the Empire to abandon the great migration, stay put, and wait for the subsequent Imperial Fleet to arrive. Or to beco a springboard for the fleet, helping complete the supply, or to be annexed by the fleet, becoming a part of it, reinforcing the fleet's forces and equipnt.
Ren Zhong's current demands both to execute the great migration and to leave a spark of civilization on the Source Star, actually violated Imperial law.
Additionally, in the laws of the Empire, the position of Ren Zhong as Angel Envoy was actually equivalent to that of the nine Frozen Elders; he could not directly issue orders to them, otherwise, it would risk exposure.
Therefore, he had to seize the initiative and use fear-mongering and self-boasting to undermine the morale of the old icen, while quietly establishing himself as a "savior" figure in their hearts.
When the old icen felt genuinely fortunate for their luck, their ntal defenses were breached, and when Ren Zhong suddenly proposed changing the usual practice of the Tracker colonial team, they, whose minds were taken, would not be aware of the discord.
Clearly, Ren Zhong succeeded.
Ten minutes later, the old icen handed over the ticulously deliberated spark retention plan to him.
Ren Zhong appeared indifferent, but deep in his mind, he let out a sigh of relief.
He had finally found and successfully executed the strategy, rewriting the history of human beings on the Source Star.
This strategy was precisely about exerting influence from the top down.
His "revolution" succeeded, overthrowing was the dood fate of the Source Starians.
Once, in Ren Zhong's eyes, "revolution" was very simple, even just mobilizing the masses and using the rural areas to surround the cities, that set of tactics.
It's not his fault to be short-sighted and uncreative; thinking this way was because, in the era when he grew up, it was inherently the only feasible path to push the wheels of history forward.
Later, when Ren Zhong ca to gain a deeper understanding of the Source Star's technological level and noticed the existence of the "Net," he changed his thinking again, trying to take the upper-level transformation route of perating the Citizens.
However, after coming into contact with Ying Hao, and witnessing Ying Hao's so-called reform from the top-level Promotion Association, and seeing the Frozen Soldiers and advanced Ruined Beast combat power held by the old icen,
Ren Zhong was forced to adjust his thinking again.
That was when he realized that he really could not convert every Citizen.
