Chapter 2802: Eternal Brightness

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“The carefree country you talked about does exist. It is on ‘Eternal Brightness.

Chu Zhixiao said to Li Yao, “The environment there is beautiful, the space is spacious, and there is never the worry of lack of resources. There is no scourge of extraterrestrial devils, either. People can do whatever they want. Nobody needs to lie in wait in the frontline like the ‘soldiers’, and nobody needs to

work endlessly in the dark and damp mines like the ‘workers. All the food and energy that they need comes from a giant machine known as a ‘cyclic machine’. All the residents of ‘Eternal Brightness’ believe that it is an inexhaustible existence like a ‘perpetual motion machine’. They have never doubted the

truth of the ‘cyclic machine’, and they have no idea that the long-term ‘feeding’ of the Star Alliance is behind the ‘cyclic machine’.

“Of course, living in such a world is bliss. There is no pain at all. You can enjoy the goodness and beauty of human nature to your heart’s content. But what’s the price? The price is that, compared to normal starships of the same size, Eternal Brightness can only carry one tenth of the crew, and its food and

energy consumption are five times higher than those of starships of the same type. In other words, the resources that are enough to sustain dozens of starships and dozens of times the minimum population will be supplied to Eternal Brightness in order to maintain the ‘illusory goodness’.

“How could it be possible for the residents of Eternal Brightness to live the lives of everyone in the Sanctuary, if not the entire universe?

“More importantly, if we invest so many resources and find a way to improve ourselves in the illusionary brightness, the resources will be worth it. But the experiment of Eternal Brightness proved otherwise.

“If the first generation of residents on Eternal Brightness hundreds of years ago had not forgotten their dignity and destiny as the ‘last human beings’, and were still studying and developing in the fields of technology and Cultivation, trying to eliminate the venomous fog, pollution, and radiation on the

planets one day so that they could be revived and the civilization of mankind could be expanded again, as the old residents died and new residents were born, and the generations of residents were indulged in the love of the ‘cyclic machines’, they gradually lost their ambition and motivation and indulged

in the petty things and the hilarious hypocrisy.

“They became more and more indifferent to the outside world, and they became more and more accustomed to everything on Eternal Brightness. They were even more insatiable and demanded higher-level enjoyment.

“In the beginning, the first generation of residents could tolerate a living area of 10 square meters per person, as well as synthetic food for five days a week plus natural food for two days. Moreover, they were willing to spend more than half a day studying and working, exploring technology and

techniques of a higher level. But hundreds of years later, their extravagant children and grandchildren demanded a living area of at least 50 square meters per person, at least two delicious natural food meals per day, and a huge amount of nutritious synthetic food. Just because the taste was bland, they

didn’t care and wasted it!

“At that time, their highly-degraded brains were all immersed in meaningless entertainment. They had long forgotten the importance of studying and working. They were even unable to think of such a simple question—the space and resources on board were limited. No matter how they cycled, they

could only maintain the same degree as before. How could they create so much space and resources for them to enjoy?

“Do you know what the most important issue on Eternal Brightness right now is? The parasites who call themselves Cultivators and citizens of the Cultivation civilization are discussing whether or not those who consider themselves to be males but think that they are females are qualified to enter the

women’s restrooms and whether or not pets should be legal residents of Eternal Brightness and enjoy the same rights as them. No matter how many cats and dogs there are, they cannot be killed casually!

“Hehe. Isn’t it funny? The world outside is in flames of war. Demons and devils are everywhere. The parasites living in their sweet dreams are still concerned about men going to the ladies’ room and their pets! Such a ‘nation of Cultivators’ is so ‘beautiful’, but it is also so illusory and fragile! As long as the

Supreme Master decides to stop sending energy and food to Eternal Brightness today, the ideal nation will collapse at midnight tomorrow. It will turn from a paradise of truth and beauty into a living hell. The parasites will all turn into corpses within three days, and their corpses will all be devoured by

their pets within ten days.

“Tm giving you this example because I want to tell you that an ideal country that looks beautiful does not exist. Human beings are an imperfect creation. We need the restriction of order and the stimulation of pain all the time. Without order, our desire will be magnified infinitely and swallow us and the

entire universe. Without the stimulation of pain, we will be unable to move forward and will be reduced from the machines that transform the universe to the shameless parasites.

“know how much pain I’ve endured, and I know how many brutal battles I’ve been through. But that is exactly the purpose of my existence. I would rather live my life as ‘Slaughter Goddess’, ‘Captain of the Yaksha Team’, and ‘Major’ than live on Eternal Brightness as a fat, ignorant parasite!

While he was talking, he patted the head of the spider tank hard, as if he were trying to record his words into the crystal processor.

She had done it.

Li Yao’s head was dizzy because of Chu Zhixiao’s words, and he was dumbfounded by the truth of such a large-scale ‘lab of human nature’.

Spending the lives of hundreds of starships and generations of human beings on such a large-scale ‘human experiment’ was already beyond the limits of ‘evil’. Li Yao did not know what to say.

The brainwashing that was aimed at Chu Zhixiao was not like what Li Yao had imagined in the past, where her brain was forcibly cut off and twisted, but ‘reasonable’ and ‘reasonable’, which made her more than willing.

Scary. Too scary!

“Wouldn’t such an experiment consume a lot of resources?

Li Yao could not help but ask, “For what purpose?”

“In order to better grasp human nature, we have come up with the next development strategy of the Holy Alliance.

“It would be irresponsible of us not to conduct small-scale experiments to determine the effectiveness of our strategy, wouldn’t it?”

Li Yao was speechless. He thought for a long time and said, “However, such an experiment is false after all. The residents of Eternal Brightness did not know the truth of the outside world. That’s why they retreated and continued regressing, What if they knew part of the truth and established certain

ideals? Maybe they would have continued developing their civilization with sufficient resources?

“Even if their civilization can be developed, so what?

“Even if the residents of Eternal Brightness can break their shell, we are still unable to break the shell that covers our universe. We are all trapped in a shell, a starship that is unimaginably large and magnificent. But no matter how enormous the ‘cosmic starship’ is, the space and resources are still limited.

We still need to suppress our emotions, desires, and free will in order to survive under the protection of absolute order. Any impulsive action that seems to be blood-boiling will only accelerate our death.

“IH still don’t understand.”

Li Yao asked in fear, “Why can’t we break the shell of the ‘space starship’? Maybe there is endless space, resources, and hope outside?”

“Tt can’t be broken.”

“Hundreds of thousands of years ago,” Chu Zhixiao said casually, “the gods tried it a long time ago. Even if the shell was broken, there would only be a hundred times darker truth and more brutal enemies outside.

Li Yao was surprised. “Major, how did you know?”

“Master Zhi Shan told us.”

“Master Zhi Shan said that the Pangu Civilization Alliance, the gods hundreds of thousands of years ago, perished and hibernated to fight against the most brutal enemies outside of the universe, thereby preserving our peace for hundreds of thousands of years. The enemies even feed on the emotions and

desires of human beings. Once they smell the scent of our emotions and desires, they will invade and annihilate us. It is one of the main reasons why we have to suppress our emotions and desires.

Li Yao was dazed for a moment. “Is the enemy outside the universe extraterrestrial devils?”

“No. The extraterrestrial devils are nothing compared to them.

Chu Zhixiao said, “Extraterrestrial devils are the enemies that we can understand and fight against. But the real enemies outside the universe are beyond our understanding and our capability to fight against them. We can only hide in the darkness, holding our breath, covering our mouth, and minimizing

our heartbeat and pulse. Don’t think or do anything. Wait. Wait quietly.”

Li Yao was silent for a moment. Then he asked, “What are we waiting for?”

“Waiting for the gods to wake up.

Chu Zhixiao said, “Master Zhi Shan told us that the gods are thinking of strategies to deal with the enemies beyond the universe while they are asleep, and they will certainly come up with something, All we need to do is wait patiently for the gods to wake up and provide them with sufficient resources so

that they can build themselves into the toughest army. By then, we just need to obey the commands of the gods. The day is not far away.”

“Ah”

Li Yao tried to hold back his curiosity for a long time, but he could not help but ask, “Major, do you believe Master Zhi Shan’s theory?”

Chu Zhixiao stared at Li Yao’s crystal camera in a daze until Li Yao felt scared. Then he lit another cigarette.

“Ido.”

The woman carrying the destiny of ‘Slaughter Goddess’ said gloomily, “What choice do we have except to believe in the gods?”
