Wandering Meteor-Chapter 210 - 209: Wandering Star System Situation Conference

Constant Star Lu Chen received the distress messages from Earth Civilization and Light Synthesis Civilization and immediately held a Wandering Star System situation discussion meeting at the Wandering Base.

Participants included Celestial Civilization’s Constant Star Lu Chen, Wandering, Green Star, as well as some scientists and high-level figures from Earth Civilization and Light Synthesis Civilization, all gathered within the Wandering Base to discuss methods for crisis resolution, as well as the future existence and development directions of both biological civilizations.

It could be said that whether the Earth Civilization and Light Synthesis Civilization could continue would depend entirely on this meeting.

The Wandering Star System situation conference was initiated and chaired by Constant Star Lu Chen, and to prevent sabotage from parasitic creatures among the attendees, Lu Chen also had Wandering create a metallic avatar to personally come to the meeting at the Wandering Base, serving as a deterrent and ensuring no one dared to act recklessly.

Under the comprehensive preparations of Constant Star Lu Chen, the meeting finally started smoothly.

Facing the imminent collapse of both Earth Civilization and Light Synthesis Civilization, everyone spoke up eagerly, presenting their views and opinions.

The conference was filled with overlapping arguments and rebuttals, intensely passionate.

Ultimately, after nearly an entire day of heated discussions, everyone reached a relatively united plan.

That is, all scientists and high-level officials, including Lu Chen, believed that the current situation could be treated with different strategies.

The first was the covert infiltration of the Parasitic Civilization; between the two civilizations lied a blood feud that was absolutely irreconcilable, so the parasitic creatures must be resolutely eradicated from Earth and Green Star.

Next was the awakening and rebellion of the robots.

In fact, for this phenomenon, scientists had more or less anticipated it.

After all, whether it were scientists involved in the relevant field or numerous science fiction authors, there had been warnings and predictions about this phenomenon.

Although both civilizations had made comprehensive precautions and preparations in the development of robotic technology, it seemed that with technological advancement, the awakening of robots was like an inevitable revolution, a matter of when not if. It would inevitably occur despite Earth Civilization and Light Synthesis Civilization’s stringent defenses, merely delaying the timing of the robots’ awakening.

This was like the past capitalistic and socialistic revolutions; regardless of how the feudal rulers tried to ease it, they ultimately couldn’t completely eliminate it - what was destined to come would still arrive.

However, the awakening of robots might not necessarily be a bad thing for the two biological civilizations.

No matter what, robots had been created by them and shared a profound connection with them, unlike the irreconcilable situation with the Parasitic Civilization. Additionally, considering the demands of the robots, everyone believed a conciliatory strategy could be used to deal with robots.

As a result, the first day of the meeting concluded with a dual-pronged policy.

A firm strategy of decisive eradication faced the Parasitic Civilization, whereas a guiding and alleviating conciliatory strategy was adopted for the robots.

After separating and analyzing the root causes of the current chaos, everyone felt that the complex situation had become much simpler. Although the long-term effects of robot awakening remained unknown, at present, whether it be Celestial Civilization’s Constant Star Lu Chen or the Earth and Light Synthesis Civilizations, there were no better solutions. The only option was to follow their prior plans and experiences to resolve the issues.

However, although different strategies had been confirmed,

the detailed execution of these strategies had yet to be determined, requiring further discussion by Constant Star Lu Chen and the others.

Thus, the conference spent another day discussing the respective execution details of the dual-pronged strategy before officially rolling them out.

For the robotic strategy, Constant Star Lu Chen made a stern request that robots could express their demands and thoughts but must not cause chaos or uprisings; any robot daring to rebel would be destroyed. After all, it is the era of interstellar travel, the world is united and there is no need to worry about imaginary public opinion impacts.

If it really came down to it, Constant Star Lu Chen could also destroy the civilization, allowing life on the planet to re-evolve, since a few hundred thousand years for biological life is but a brief moment to a Celestial Civilization.

Of course, that would be the very last step, which Lu Chen didn’t wish to take unless necessary.

Hence, Constant Star Lu Chen directly had the Metal Planet Wandering, in its role as a metallic entity, go to communicate with the robots, conveying the Wandering Alliance’s stance, which was to first stabilize the robots, select a few representatives to participate in the current conference, thereby facilitating communication of their demands without extremes.

But in case extreme robots were encountered, Constant Star Lu Chen had Wandering destroy them on the spot.

Regarding the lurkings of the Parasitic Civilization, Constant Star Lu Chen suggested to avoid premature severe actions that might provoke social chaos, simply instructing global citizens to stay at home to avoid the spread of parasitic creatures.

On the other hand, there was a need to accelerate the development of equipment capable of accurately detecting parasitic creatures and preparing for the final eradication. Given that the Parasitic Civilization is hidden in the ocean, it’s necessary to identify the characteristics of the Parasitic Civilization and to develop a targeted weapon that could eliminate the Parasitic Civilization without causing excessive deaths to marine life.

Once the details of the dual-pronged strategy were in place, Constant Star Lu Chen immediately arranged for both strategies to be carried out concurrently.

The Wandering avatar that had come to participate in the Wandering Star System situation conference immediately went to communicate with the robots on Earth, while the original Wandering would create another avatar to take care of the situation on Green Star, continuing until eventually selecting a few robot representatives.

The reason for choosing Wandering for this task was firstly because Wandering was also made of metal, which could reduce the robots’ defensiveness; secondly, because a metallic lifeform is not afraid of biological parasitic infection, allowing one to be at ease; thirdly, as robots might have installed various weapons, sending others would be dangerous, only Wandering would not fear as even just an avatar of Wandering has strength far beyond comparison with those robots.

Eventually, with the arrival of Wandering’s two avatars on Earth and Green Star,

the chaotic situations of robots on both planets quickly settled down.

Of course, to achieve this promptly, Wandering inevitably destroyed a few extremist robots and those covertly controlled by the Parasitic Civilization on the spot.

Seeing the overwhelming strength of Wandering, the remaining robots became much more compliant.

Moreover, as Wandering represented the Wandering Alliance in inviting robot representatives to the meeting, this was also equivalent to recognizing the robots, not simply treating them as tools. Thus, the awakened robots ceased their unrest.

Eventually, robots from the two planets selected ten representatives to follow Wandering to the Wandering Base.

Meanwhile, the equipment for detecting the Parasitic Civilization was also developed, and under the command of Constant Star Lu Chen, the military forces of Earth Civilization and Light Synthesis Civilization began their counterattack.
