Chapter 125: Achieving enlightenment through techniques.

Peace came quickly, and the years of recuperation passed in a flash. The smoke of war had completely cleared, and the Federation had been restored on the surface. But some things had changed forever. We had won, and we should have returned to peace, but everyone felt unsatisfied.

A silent craze has swept through our people. Its origin is no longer traceable, but they, no, we, have begun to seep into our hearts.

It believes that our race is destined to accomplish a greater cause. This boundless ambition for conquest, the Cohesion Specialist believes, may be related to excessive exposure to the psychic influence of the Warp. Perhaps, as our conquests expand, we are inclined to fully acquire the power of this realm.

This is the so-called grand vision of ruling the universe.

……

This change in thinking is reflected in the material aspect, which is a great enhancement of our production initiative.

In the history of the Helka Federation, this period is remembered as a turning point, a chapter of devastation and progress.

The shadow of war had just dissipated, and all the citizens of the Federation seemed to feel some indescribable gift and the call of the future.

Although the Federation suffered unprecedented military losses, with many advanced space fortresses and warships reduced to ashes in the confrontation with the Chaos Gods, the Federation's core generation area remained unscathed in the disaster, maintaining its incomparable resilience and stability.

It was this stability of the core region that became the foundation for the reconstruction and revival of the Federation. Moreover, under a certain great inspiration, the spiritual level of the Federation's citizens was also revived.

Every citizen of the Helka Federation can feel an extraordinary belief that permeates every piece of land and every heart, like a raging fire burning in their hearts.

No one can resist this force, which fills everyone's heart with an unstoppable passion for construction.

Although the war had just ended, the entire federation seemed to be fully excited, gathering unprecedented motivation and confidence.

The Federation's forces began to recover at an astonishing rate. The fleet, which had once covered the sky and sun, was reorganized once again, but the most astonishing thing was the power of the people.

Workers, scientists, technicians and experts from various fields have all actively devoted themselves to the restoration and construction work, completely forgetting themselves.

Although the war had just ended, almost everyone on the streets of the Federation was filled with an unusual energy.

Many people, in the grief of losing their loved ones, friends and homes, discovered a common goal: to build a stronger and more glorious Helka Federation.

Those things we lose are inevitable losses on our way forward, but when we win the laurels of the winner, this loss will be compensated.

No longer shrouded in the shadow of disaster, they have become more determined and willing to give everything for future victory and prosperity.

We will clear away all obstacles on our way forward without making any unnecessary sacrifices in the process.

After a considerable period of time, we finally realized that we were destined to shoulder a great responsibility and that our mission was more noble than the fate of this starry sea itself.

Over the past few years, this concept has become increasingly stronger, to the point where it is impossible to deny that a major social reform is brewing.

I don't know if the Xinghai is ready for the fate we've changed, but our people are. We will endure misunderstandings and resistance, but we won't stop.

……

The Federation's research on the current spirit of progress has brought about a new project to expand and elevate thinking capabilities.

This series of experimental reports is a record of our journey towards becoming a sage king. We have used technical means to decipher all the mysterious philosophical thoughts in the past history about the so-called Alaya consciousness, sudden enlightenment, and the field of thinking.

Our civilization's greatest minds have recently experienced a series of unprecedented breakthroughs in their quest for universal cognition. Scientists within the Federation have made astonishing breakthroughs in the study of consciousness.

They not only solved the basic theoretical problems about the generation and operation of consciousness and thinking, but also successfully achieved the control and guidance of consciousness through technical means.

This technology, known as "Consciousness Sublimation," is a key component of the Helka Federation's pursuit of spiritual advancement. Through consciousness sublimation, individuals can rapidly enhance their cognitive abilities and skill mastery.

Initially, the application of this technology was limited to senior managers and military commanders, who experienced an unprecedented increase in the depth and breadth of their thinking. Wisdom and experience that once took years or even decades to accumulate could now be understood and mastered in just a few months.

Many elites who participated in the experiment felt an unprecedented acceleration of their thinking, and their decision-making ability and strategic vision were greatly enhanced.

The management capabilities of these senior managers have increased fivefold, their command decisions have become more precise, and the depth and breadth of their leadership have achieved a qualitative leap.

If the professional sensitivity and professional awareness of a novice manager in the past were defined as leadership level one, then now the level of every consciousness-raising leader is at least level five.

……

But this is just the beginning. As consciousness enhancement technology is gradually promoted to a wider range of people, ordinary citizens will also be able to quickly grasp new skills in the enhanced state and flexibly apply them to their daily work.

The consciousness information of a large number of sublimated people has become parallel. This phenomenon is called "mind union" by scientists in the Federation.

In a state of united thinking, individuals can not only acquire the knowledge in their own consciousness, but also quickly acquire the experience, skills and even ideas of others through the sharing of the federal collective spirit.

In the sublimated state, the boundaries between people become blurred, as if the wisdom and power of the entire society have somehow become one.

Everyone is no longer an isolated individual, but is closely connected with other citizens and even with the collective spirit of the entire federation through some invisible bond.

We became a living nation, even without the need to complete each other.

The advancement of specialized skills, once requiring decades of accumulated experience, has now become an industrialized production process, fueled by a shift in consciousness and the integration of thought. Ordinary workers can now master complex engineering operations in a matter of days, even outperforming some self-proclaimed technicians.

As a result, society's productivity has been unprecedentedly improved, and many tasks that were once considered impossible to complete are now within reach.

The popularization of this technology has brought about a fundamental reshaping of the Helka Federation society.

In the past, the abilities of managers and leaders were demonstrated through personal wisdom and talent, but now the standard for all this is no longer individual talent and effort, but the power of the collective consciousness of the entire federation.

The leaders of the federation are no longer single individuals; their decisions and commands become more precise and efficient because they can leverage the power of collective spirit and combine the wisdom of the entire society to make decisions quickly.

While all this was happening, ordinary people gradually realized that this spiritual sublimation was not just a technical tool, but also a philosophical concept that transcends the individual.

The citizens of Helka began to think about the relationship between themselves as individuals and the entire federal collective. They were no longer just a gear in the social machine, but an important part of the entire spiritual system.

The fate of the individual and the collective are no longer separated, and everyone begins to realize that this is not only the rise of a country, but the birth of a new way of existence.

We have created an ideal administrator that past philosophers could never have imagined. The Federation has taken the first step toward making everyone a dragon. Now, every basic civil servant in the Federation is a talent that the Empire can only dream of.

They will soon reveal the great truth they have grasped. Let us accelerate...

Chapter 126 Advanced Space Rituals.

"The entire Stars is a giant Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States Period. In fact, Warhammer is also like this. Why don't warships have to engage in landing battles? Because choosing to launch orbital bombardment and directly explode the ball and the fleet to bomb each other instead of accepting the invitation to hand-to-hand combat is tantamount to the collapse of etiquette and music."

"So the traitor is actually me?"

……

"Even our leaders recognize the difficulty of overcoming the countless dangers that so easily befall us. As a solution, we have decided to develop new vassal states to protect them while shielding their backs. Only by working together can we find the true path."

Chief Minister Dolores Muwanga's speech clarified the next direction of the federal government's work.

After experiencing unprecedented technological progress and spiritual awakening, the Helka Federation ushered in a new historic stage: the establishment of the "Perfect Vassal Agreement" ascension project.

This is the Federation's answer to the questions of how to deal with the vast galactic territory that will seriously slow down the speed of political operations, and how to suppress the rapidly increasing penalties and administrative pressures of the empire.

In other words, through the advanced space ritual, we can start to expand again.

The proposal of this plan stems from the leap-forward improvement in the awareness of federal citizens in the mind expansion and ascension project, especially after the popularization of "consciousness sublimation" and "mind union" technologies. All citizens of the federation have reached an unimaginable level in terms of intelligence, spiritual realm, and social cooperation ability.

The federal governance system and the cohesion of civil society can enable the federation to actively encourage the establishment of a large and relatively independent social system, and ensure that this independence does not cause division, but instead becomes a catalyst for the further expansion of federal power.

The core of the "Perfect Vassal Agreement" is to support a new national entity that is highly politically independent, has a complete industrial system, and is completely self-sufficient, and to establish a self-sustaining vassal state with the same political, technological, and industrial capabilities as the federal headquarters.

However, such a state will not be in danger of breaking away from the framework of the federation or even becoming an enemy like the feudal vassal states of the old era. On the contrary, under the influence of the union of consciousness, it will become a solid ally and close partner of the federation.

Unlike the traditional vassal relationship that may pose a threat of division, the autonomy of a perfect vassal state will not only not generate separatist sentiments, but will instead allow it to be closely connected to the federal headquarters through a "collective spiritual union."

Just like the "Son of Transformation" in ancient mythology, a mythical creature who takes pleasure in the happiness of others, the states and the federal headquarters can regard each other's development as their own development, and the cooperation between the two can enter an unprecedented close state.

When the "Perfect Vassal Agreement" was first launched within the Helka Federation, all eyes were focused on the first vassal state that was about to be born.

This process is not just a simple political expansion, but also a major innovation of the federation and its organizational system. In the past, the expansion of the federation usually meant military occupation, cultural assimilation, economic control and ultimately vertical administration, but now it adopts an expansion model based on ideological and spiritual consensus.

Under this model, the Federation's vassal states not only inherit all of the Federation's advanced technologies, but also enjoy almost the same welfare and development opportunities as citizens of the Federation headquarters.

More importantly, the people of these vassal states, despite having a high degree of autonomy, were still able to maintain a high degree of ideological, cultural and economic consistency with the federation.

The establishment of the first perfect vassal state is not only a symbol of the Helka Federation's technological and cultural output, but also a spiritual leap.

This experimental new nation was born in the southwest of the Federation, in the "Saint's Glory Galaxy" which originally belonged to the Empire's state religion world.

Its economic and political system, which was originally dependent on the federation as a whole, has rapidly grown into a powerful independent force capable of operating independently and comparable to the federation headquarters in terms of technology, industry and culture through technology sharing and consciousness sublimation in just a few years.

The establishment of the first state has great significance. It symbolizes morality, patience and wisdom. Through the development of technology, we have finally completely defeated the military and violent determinism of the primitive and ignorant era. We no longer need to achieve our own control through violent suppression and invasion.

The real Zhou Gong spits out food to welcome the guests, and the whole world is at peace. There is no need for the six armies to annihilate them.

After the implementation of the "Perfect Vassal Agreement", the citizens of the Shengyao Galaxy did not develop any tendency to separate from us due to their independence. Instead, they became more determined to cooperate with the Helka Federation.

In the capital of the first alliance, the top leaders of the Helka Federation and the archons of the Holy Glory Galaxy celebrated this historic moment together.

This wasn't just the signing of a political agreement, but rather a fusion of spirit and ideals. At this moment, the Federation entrusted the Holy Glory Ruling Group with the task of conquering the vast southwestern star region and gifted them its entire fleet. They gladly accepted the task and were happy to accomplish it.

The successful case of establishing the First Alliance marked the birth of a new model of federal expansion.

In the past, any expansion meant a long process of establishing the ruling foundation. Now, the expansion of the federation can not only quickly establish an economically and technologically independent entity, but also effectively avoid any form of separatist tendencies and high governance costs.

Today, this new model not only resolves the contradiction between independence and union, but also opens up a new path for expansion. We only need to live in peace in the world and lead our allies to conquer the world.

A new era of expansion for the Helka Federation has quietly begun across this vast sea of stars. It's no longer a matter of simple annexation, but rather a transfer of ideas and a resonance of spirits. On this path, the Helka Federation will gradually expand to every corner of the galaxy through the Perfect Vassal Agreement.

Every newly formed vassal state, even if it is not under the direct jurisdiction of the Federation, will become a part of the Federation, and these states will eventually become one of the indispensable forces in our cause because of their high degree of integration with the Helka Federation.

The future of the Helka Federation is no longer limited to a galaxy or a region, but a vast empire where spirit and matter blend together, an extraordinary union built through thoughts and beliefs.

As more and more new perfect vassal states are established, we will be able to build an unprecedented interstellar community, although they may all be replicas of our own regime.

Wouldn't that be better?

“I Am The Senate.”

Chapter 127 Civilization and Enlightenment.

"Simply put, after granting a favor, there's plenty of time to increase prestige, change vassal obligations, and then integrate and annex."

……

At the same time, the Federation's diplomatic situation also underwent subtle changes. Farsight, leader of the Farsight Enclave, a separatist force of the Tau Empire and an ally of the Helka Federation in the Eastern Mutual Defense Clause, personally visited the Federation.

Farsightedness's arrival was not portrayed as a festive occasion like other diplomatic visits, but was instead filled with tension and secrecy.

His apparent intention was to negotiate with the Federation to jointly eliminate the remnants of Chaos forces, and to seek the Federation's help in repairing the psychic corruption suffered by his family. However, Farsight's true purpose for this trip was far more than that.

Farsight's outward calm masked a deep anxiety. As the leader of the Tau Empire's separatist forces, he was well aware of the difficulties he faced and that he was isolated and helpless.

Farsight had sought the aid of the Aether during the Emperor's Children's attack, but he was met with a cold refusal.

The Tau Empire, his homeland, did not accept his proposal for the Eight Heroes of Farsight to commit collective suicide in exchange for the condition that everything in the Farsight Enclave remains a fait accompli, and was not prepared to send military assistance. At this critical moment, it chose to keep its distance from him.

This decision made Farsight truly realize that he was no longer a member of the Greater Good in the eyes of Ether. Clearly, as a being with enormous influence and constantly shaking the basic system of the Tau, Ether had completely doubted Farsight's actions and even found his past behavior intolerable.

At this point, Farsight realized that he could no longer protect himself in this universe on his own. Even the might of the Tau Empire, to which he had once belonged, could not withstand the threats posed by "extradimensional entities" and transcendental forces, let alone this tiny base.

A single ray of Chaos' power was enough to cripple Farsight's small shogunate. Farsight knew he was isolated and helpless in this universe, and the Helka Federation, a rising and powerful entity, became his only ally.

Therefore, he decided to establish a deeper cooperative relationship with the Federation and even discussed a mutual agreement. Farsight knew that only with the support of the Federation could he ensure his foothold in this dangerous universe.

……

However, Farsight's visit was not limited to seeking political help. Another goal of Farsight was to seek answers to the strange visions he had recently experienced and questions from "hyperdimensional science" through the wisdom of the Federation.

The visions of the future made him feel uneasy and confused. These visions seemed to indicate some deeper changes or more dangerous forces were coming. He did not understand the truth of these visions, but they had become a shadow that he could not get rid of.

He repeatedly dreamed of himself leading the Eight Heroes, marching through the capital of Titanium, transforming countless fools who disagreed with his path into Jingguan, becoming the eight steps on his path to ascension. Then he would wake in a cold sweat, forced to silently recite the mantra of the Greater Good.

Therefore, Farsight hopes that the Federation can provide some advice on "hyperdimensional science." He believes that as an entity with a deep understanding of the extraordinary realm, the Federation will be able to help him solve these mysteries.

Farsightedness was willing to pay a huge price in exchange for federal help in this area.

In the formal diplomatic negotiations that began between the two sides, according to standard procedures, Vision threw out a series of diplomatic clauses that seemed to require a lot of effort but actually had no practical benefits to test the Federation.

Generally speaking, these terms are intolerable. After a "cordial and friendly" conversation, both parties will gradually explore each other's psychological expectations and then bargain around the bottom line of both parties.

However, the Federation readily agreed to the initial terms, including the independence of the Farsighted Enclave, the prohibition of actively spreading Federation ideology within the Farsighted Enclave, and the non-interference in Farsighted Enclave's shogunate politics. They displayed remarkable patience and tolerance for Farsighted's exorbitant demands.

After agreeing to all the requests, they also provided generous additional assistance, and gave Farsight a scientific research sharing agreement on "Psionic Theory" and relevant knowledge in the subspace field for free. At the same time, they sent a psychic specialist to help him solve the problem of chaos power corrosion.

This made Farsight feel doubtful and uncertain, but these terms were not problematic in any way, and were even a little too generous. This made him feel a complex emotion towards the Federation, which he didn't know whether it was admiration, incomprehension, or even jealousy.

Only the strong have this kind of leeway, and Farsight Enclave is clearly not one of the strong. But since Farsight itself is the beneficiary, he can't just refuse.

Finally, an agreement was reached between the two parties. After the other party left, the federal diplomatic envoy contentedly marked the completion of the establishment of the second franchise state on the holographic recorder.
