Chapter 301 Contact
With Yun Tianming as a guide, it was easy for the people of the First Fleet to contact the Carbon-based Federation.
Soon, Zeke's face appeared on the screen.
Previously, when the Three-Body Civilization wanted to join the Carbon-Based Federation, it was Zeko who was in charge of the whole thing. However, due to the force majeure factor of Zhang Beihai, the Three-Body Civilization was unable to evacuate smoothly.
When I saw Zeke again, he looked obviously more haggard than before.
"You are……"
Zeke looked at Yun Tianming through the screen. He began to search for information about the person in front of him in his mind, comparing the faces in his memory with Yun Tianming.
Finally, it seemed to remember something.
"Are you the human archon of the Trisolaran civilization?"
Yun Tianming bowed slightly with a gentle smile on his face.
"It's rare that Commissioner Zeke still remembers me."
After Zeke confirmed Yun Tianming's identity, his attitude suddenly became much colder.
"What do you want from me? Do you still want the Kana people to fulfill their previous promise to the Trisolaran civilization?"
This is an irony. The Kana people already know almost everything about the entire process of Zhang Beihai's sneak attack on the Three-Body Civilization.
Their attitude towards the Three-Body Civilization is not regretful, but rather ridiculous.
"I admit that the Carbon-Based Federation's previous assessment of the potential of the Trisolaran Civilization was indeed biased. Making them a vassal civilization of the third-level civilization was simply flattering them. This rubbish civilization is not even as good as the brainless lizards of the Devourer Civilization."
Zeke was extremely angry, and even vapor began to appear on his head.
"Stupid, absolutely stupid. A Level 2 civilization could be pinned down by a Level 1 civilization for hundreds of years, and even lost in the end. This is simply too stupid to understand."
"With such potential, it's a good thing that it was eliminated. If it really became a vassal of our clan, wouldn't we be screwed as well?"
Yun Tianming did not comment on this.
He could see that the destruction of the Three-Body Civilization must have had a great impact on Zeke, otherwise he wouldn't be here cursing like a shrew.
But all this was within his expectations.
"Commissioner Zeke, my visit to you this time is not related to the Trisolaran civilization, but to human civilization?"
When Zeke heard this, he was stunned and immediately became interested.
"Oh, tell me."
When Yun Tianming saw his reaction, he knew that there was probably a chance.
"That's right, we... also want to join the Carbon-Based Federation!"
"Aren't you disappointed with the Trisolaran civilization? Now the Trisolaran civilization has disappeared from this universe, and even the last Second Fleet has been wiped out by me. I wonder if you have a chance to join the Carbon-Based Federation with such a record?"
Zeke was a little surprised when he heard this.
"You want to join the Carbon-Based Federation?"
"Yes."
This was something that Yun Tianming and Wade discussed for a long time. After discussing the pros and cons of joining the Carbon-Based Federation, they finally decided to join the Carbon-Based Federation.
Originally, he thought Zeke would agree without hesitation, but Yun Tianming saw that Zeke was obviously silent.
"No."
After thinking for a while, the other party still gave a rejection response, but Yun Tianming clearly saw a lot of struggle and hesitation in Zeke's eyes. Obviously, it was not that the Kana people did not want to accept them. His tangled expression seemed more like there was some force majeure that forced him to give up.
Chapter 302 Civilization Assessment
"why?"
Yun Tianming raised a question, he wanted to hear Zeke's answer.
"This……"
Zeke glanced at Yun Tianming and sighed helplessly.
"This is not a secret that cannot be told. Earth civilization is very special. Or rather, all Earth civilizations are very special."
"All Earth civilizations?"
"Could it be that there are other civilizations on Earth besides us?"
Yun Tianming was a little surprised. He was the first one to leave the Earth Union, so he didn't know much about the observers. Although the Three-Body Civilization had mentioned observers, Yun Tianming had always been on the First Fleet and had only met Earth a few times. It was normal that he didn't know the existence of the other six Earths.
But he didn't care about these and continued to ask.
"Okay, even if what you said is true, do you think we can still be considered an Earth civilization now?"
This sentence really stumped Zeke.
"Yes, this is also the point of my hesitation. Logically speaking, since you have voluntarily abandoned the Earth, you should no longer be considered a part of Earth's civilization. However, this is not something we can decide based on our own opinion. It depends on the intention of the one who created your civilization."
"If they still think that you little losers are their children, then our decision to let you join the Carbon-Based Federation is tantamount to going against them."
At this time, Wade behind Yun Tianming suddenly spoke.
"Then how can we prove that we are sending a fleet to attack the Earth Alliance? Does this mean we can distance ourselves from the matter?"
As soon as Wade said this, Chang Weisi on the side became nervous instantly, and his hand subconsciously reached for the pistol at his waist.
He knew Thomas Wade too well. If Zeke really told them to do this so that they could complete the separation of civilizations with the Earth Union, then Chang Weisi believed that Wade would do it without hesitation.
In the eyes of this madman, if he could use an attack to exchange for a ticket to enter the Carbon-Based Federation, it would be a perfect deal.
“It doesn’t have to be that extreme.”
Zeke wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and thought to himself, what kind of ruthless people are he meeting?
No wonder a first-level civilization dares to send a fleet to launch a surprise attack on a civilization one level higher than itself. It turns out that all of them are ruthless. Who did they learn the idea of attacking one's own hometown just because of a disagreement?
"What you need is a Declaration of Independence?"
"Declaration of Independence?"
Chang Weisi, Wade, and Yun Tianming all looked at each other, somewhat confused as to what the other party meant.
"Since you have chosen to completely break away from Earth civilization, you should abandon all ties with them, whether it's technology, beliefs, or social ideology. You must make a difference from before."
"To put it simply, your fleet is not yet a complete civilization in our eyes. However, I will report to my superiors and evaluate your future behavior. You don't need to contact us on your own initiative. One day, when your civilization evaluation meets our psychological expectations, I will contact you again on my own initiative."
After Zeke said this, he unilaterally hung up the communication with several people.
At the same time, the token responsible for contacting the Kana people was shattered the moment the communication ended.
Chapter 303 Felix
"This underground tunnel is the last safe haven for our group of people."
Himoses led a few people through the last gate, which was also the end of the underground passage.
When the gate is opened, there is a round flat area in front of you.
Looking upwards, this circular area is just the deepest part of the building. Layers of residential areas extend upward like winding vines, densely packed together.
It is more like a collection of capsule rooms than a residential area.
Each compartment can only accommodate a bed and a table at most. From a distance, the layout here is somewhat similar to the underground cities that Lin Xuan presided over the construction of back then.
When people lie down here, they suddenly feel that their life is over.
"Don't mention it. Although this place is a bit small, it's still quite comfortable to live in."
Lin Xuan and a few others found a table and sat down. Immediately, a bunch of messy advertisements popped up around them.
These advertisements are almost omnipresent in residents' lives, even more common than toilets on the streets. After listening to them for a long time, you will hear these things even when you close your eyes in your dreams at night.
"You just said that this place was also very chaotic before, but now it seems that except for the small size, there doesn't seem to be anything wrong with it."
Lin Xuan looked at Himoses and asked the question in her mind.
"Yes."
When it comes to business, Himoses' expression becomes serious for once.
"When Enwan Technology first took over this planet, it almost gave up on it and ignored it, causing the crime rate to soar. That's how the early Spark Organization got rich."
"Later, more and more people from Xinghuo gathered, and Enwan Technology imposed heavier taxes on poor areas in order to develop. A riot against the rich area was inevitable."
Lin Xuan nodded without commenting.
"This is normal. If people can't even afford to eat, everyone will turn against the government."
"After the riot, the government funded the construction of residential areas, schools, and cheap underground hospitals here. I thought everything would go in a good direction, but who knew that it would cause divisions within Xinghuo."
"Some members believe that Xinghuo should continue to increase the frequency of riots. Only by letting Enwan Technology and other companies feel the anger of the grassroots people will they be willing to continue to provide me with more resources."
"Some people also believe that Enwan Technology has provided sufficient living conditions, and that Spark has changed from speaking for the grassroots masses to an insatiable extremist terrorist organization, which runs counter to our original intention."
"So, now you are in a situation where you are about to be disbanded?"
The veteran standing by pointed out the key to the problem.
Himoses did not shy away from the question and nodded in acknowledgement.
"The current Spark is indeed facing the risk of disbanding. More importantly, the two factions do not negotiate at all. Just like this terrorist attack, it is entirely the result of Felix and his people's willful behavior."
"Who is Felix?"
"Another leader of the Spark was also one of the early leaders who founded this party. His child was forced by Enwan Technology to do a cyber hacking experiment and died. So his revenge on Enwan Technology is more of a personal revenge than a dispute over interests."
Chapter 304 Capital
“It’s a really complicated organization.”
Lin Xuan suddenly felt a little regretful. If he had known that he would face such a situation, he should have brought Luo Congmin with him.
Although he had participated in many political struggles among various parties in the Local Federation, he was able to defeat the competition more by relying on his own strength. When it came to playing political tricks, no one dared to say that he was more suitable than Luo Congmin.
"This situation is actually quite dangerous for you. The fundamental reason why Enwan Technology cannot take action against you is that it has no legitimate reason to do so. If we send troops to suppress you, it will give others a bad impression and provoke more people to riot."
Su Zilin analyzed truthfully.
"But now the situation is completely different. Enwan Technology not only did not suppress you, but provided you with housing and subsidies for various living resources. If you, Xinghuo, launched a terrorist attack on the city at this time, then in the eyes of others, you would be no different from terrorists. Not only would you lose the support of the people, but you would also give Enwan Technology a reason to attack you."
Himoses nodded slightly.
"That's true, so we need to be clear about the direction. In order to ensure that we don't get to that point, I kicked out a large number of idle members of the party and sent them to live on the ground. But because of this, the conflict between Felix and I has deepened."
Lin Xuan remained noncommittal. He was not surprised by this result.
"So, I still say the same thing, you need a suitable leader. If you continue to fight among yourselves, this party that has been established with great difficulty will be finished sooner or later."
Hearing this, Himoses couldn't help but look at Lin Xuan.
"So, Mr. Bai Bing, you already have a solution to this problem?"
Lin Xuan nodded and didn't keep the question in suspense.
"It's more than just a solution. I've even found a template for your future plans."
"Then I'm all ears."
Himoses looked at Lin Xuan with some anticipation. To be honest, at this point, if he still couldn't figure out the identities of Lin Xuan and the others, he would be a complete fool.
But even so, he didn't care. As long as the Spark Party could continue to grow and develop and seek external forces, so what?
From the perspective of the Mechanical Earth, he is a complete traitor, but from the perspective of class struggle, he considers himself a hero who is willing to speak for the grassroots people.
"First of all, Enwan Technology will choose to give in and compromise, not because it is afraid of you, but because without you, Enwan Technology will face a real disaster."
"What do you mean?"
Not only Himoses, but the other people in the team were also confused after hearing what Lin Xuan said.
“Have you ever heard of Das Kapital? Capital is not a person or a company, but an ideology.”
“There is also a difference between capitalists and capital. Capitalists are created because they are driven by capital, and they also serve capital.”
