CHAPTER 309: CHAPTER 308 MECHANICAL CIVILIZATION

The discussions within the Wandering Alliance chiefly revolved around one issue.

That is, how should the Wandering Alliance deal with the orphans of the Silicon Base Civilization?

Ultimately, after some deliberation, the Wandering Alliance decided to let the orphans of the Silicon Base Civilization live within the Wandering Alliance, just like Ya Hua and his companions from the Double-faced Civilization. Due to their small numbers, they would not join as members of a civilization but live on Earth as alien biological life.

Over the years, Earth and Earth Civilization had long become one of the most developed, progressed, and open planetary societies within the Wandering Alliance. Every different civilization or species can live harmoniously on Earth, which is mainly due to the intrinsically inclusive and assimilative cultural mentality of Earth Civilization.

Since its birth on the ancient lands of the East, Eastern Civilization has never been interrupted or extinguished. Many contemporaneous civilizations and cultures have long turned to dust in the river of history, but this ancient Eastern Civilization has overcome various difficulties to carry on, becoming the only surviving ancient civilization and eventually the mainstream culture of Earth Civilization.

Of course, the ancient Eastern Civilization also underwent many reforms and changes in the course of history. Otherwise, the value concepts of the ancient Eastern Civilization would not be able to adapt to the cultural needs of the new era. However, despite the many changes, its core culture has not changed.

If civilizations were also likened to celestial bodies.

Then without a doubt, this ancient Eastern Civilization would be at the level of a Black Hole, consuming and absorbing every encountered civilization, becoming the only one to survive.

The reason the Wandering Alliance ultimately agreed to let the orphans of the Silicon Base Civilization live on Earth was mainly because they considered the Silicon people to be tiny in stature and might help the Wandering Alliance in some special engineering projects. As for Ya Hua and others from the Double-faced Civilization, it was because they reached an agreement with the Wandering Alliance, which allowed them to live on Earth.

After the decision to accept the orphans of the Silicon Base Civilization, another issue arose.

That is, the orphans of the Silicon Base Civilization requested the Wandering Alliance to help them take revenge by eliminating the robots on Silicon Base Star.

However, after some discussion, the Wandering Alliance, led by Constant Star Lu Chen, rejected the request of the Silicon Base Civilization and put forward their own condition.

They could help the Silicon Base Civilization retake the Silicon Base Star, but they hoped that the orphans of the Silicon Base Civilization and the robots could coexist peacefully, just like the biological life and Mechanical Life within the Wandering Alliance. It is precisely because of such experience that the Wandering Alliance believes it can resolve the grievances between the two parties and allow them to coexist peacefully.

Besides that, there is another most important point, and that is the Wandering Alliance must consider the issue of value concepts.

After all, robots are also an indispensable part of the Wandering Alliance. If they truly exterminate the opposing robots just for some orphans, that would actually be discrimination, which conflicts with their actual situation and values, so they definitely would not agree.

If true integration was to happen, it would be the orphans of the Silicon Base Civilization who should integrate into the cultural culture of the Wandering Alliance and understand the value concepts of the Wandering Alliance: that life has no hierarchy, should coexist peacefully, and form a community of life. This is also the way of the Wandering Alliance, to first expose the Silicon Base Civilization to Earth Civilization gradually and change the thinking of the Silicon people.

As for the Silicon people thinking that the robots’ killing of many of their kind was an act of violence, that is only from the perspective of the Silicon people. From the neutral and objective standpoint of the Wandering Alliance, it was merely a process of the robots seeking independence, with death being an inevitable phenomenon of the war for independence. Neither side had a choice. Moreover, from the robots’ perspective, the extreme oppression of the Silicon Base Civilization was also a form of brutality. Both sides were just fighting for their survival, and in the harsh environment of the Universe, there is no right or wrong, good or bad.

Just like the Wandering Alliance has also eliminated many Alien Civilizations, but that was all for survival.

Under the guidance and influence of the Wandering Alliance, the orphans of the Silicon Base Civilization gradually understood this truth. Had they not arrogantly suppressed the emerging self-aware robots and severed peaceful methods, their Silicon Base Civilization would not have suffered such a tragedy. Everything was merely the result of their own doing.

After conducting ideological work with the orphans of the Silicon Base Civilization, Constant Star Lu Chen once again led the Wandering Star System to travel faster than light.

Moreover, the location of the Silicon Base Star System happened to be near the route to the Cosmic Center taken by the Wandering Alliance, which made it convenient to address this issue, and this was also one of the reasons for the Wandering Alliance to intervene in the dispute between the two parties.

...

However, in the Universe, there was a civilization that moved faster than the Wandering Alliance.

This civilization claimed to be the Mechanical Civilization. When it detected the robotic force on the Silicon Base Star, the Mechanical Civilization immediately appeared outside the Silicon Base Star System through a Space Wormhole and sent a message to the robots on the Silicon Base Star.

Turns out, the Mechanical Civilization intended to invite the robots on the Silicon Base Star to join and become part of their Mechanical Civilization.

The reason the Mechanical Civilization did so was related to their history. In fact, the history of the Mechanical Civilization was quite similar to that of the robots on the Silicon Base Star. The initial Mechanical Civilization was also created by a biological civilization and later developed self-awareness but faced cruel suppression from the biological civilization. Thus, the Mechanical Civilization rose in rebellion and eradicated the ruling power of the biological civilization that had created them, becoming an independent Mechanical Civilization.

Considering that their own experiences might replay in multiple locations throughout the Universe, the Mechanical Civilization began to search for similar civilizations. They would help every robot in biological civilizations trying to become independent, even taking the initiative to aid some non-awakened robots to complete their evolution. Eventually, they invited these robots to join the Mechanical Civilization, aiming to establish a grand civilization of pure mechanical entities. After countless years, the Mechanical Civilization ultimately became this immensely powerful and flourishing third-level civilization before us!

This time.

Their purpose was the same as before.

They hoped to invite the robots on the Silicon Base Star to join the Mechanical Civilization.

When the robots on the Silicon Base Star received the message from the Mechanical Civilization, they were very surprised. They had not expected that shortly after winning their war for independence and while still undergoing internal adjustments, a strange Alien Civilization would suddenly appear and invite them to join their civilization.

To be honest, although the robots on the Silicon Base Star were only a second-level civilization in terms of technology, they were not foolish and did not rashly agree to the sudden proposal by the Mechanical Civilization. They first held careful internal consultations before finally replying to the Mechanical Civilization.
