"You are awake." A kind and gentle voice sounded in my ears.
Chen Fang turned his head and saw Helen Cather wearing reading glasses, sitting on a chair by the bed with a book in his hand.
"What time is it?"
"It's eight o'clock."
Karen Heather closed the book and stood up, "I'll get you some food."
"No, I will do it myself."
"How long have I slept?" Chen Fang asked while putting on his coat and getting out of bed.
"A few hours."
"Child, thank you for saving me again today." Karen Heather said gratefully.
"You are welcome, those people originally wanted to kill me, I can only fight to survive, save you just by the way." Chen Fang said.
"Mortal technology, old glory, it seems that they all want to catch me."
"Oh, I'm the one who tired you." Karen Heather sighed.
"Can you always tell me why? Of course, if it is inconvenient, just treat it as if I didn't mention it."
To be honest, Chen Fang is curious why the two forces are so persistent to an old lady.
"There is nothing not to say, but it is a long story. If you don't dislike my nagging, I can talk about it."
"You sit a little longer, I'll go get some food and eat while listening."
"By the way, do you always want? I will bring it to you together."
"Help me make a pot of tea, thank you."
Chen Fang went to the kitchen to toss, then returned to the room with food and tea set.
Two people sat in the room, one drinking and talking, the other eating and listening.
After taking a sip of tea, Karen Heather didn't say why the two forces had trouble with her, but first asked Chen Fang a question.
"What do you think of the current federation?"
"Uh, it's not clear, I'm a little person who doesn't know much about this." Chen Fang was baffled by this question, but he answered truthfully.
"Then do you think the current federal law is too harsh on the awakened?"
"It's okay, at least if you don't commit crimes, it will not have a big impact. It is necessary to prevent some ordinary people from deliberately finding fault." Chen Fang thought for a while and said that he is a man who has never committed crimes in the city. Once done, the law can't find him.
The federal law has different sentencing standards for ordinary people and awakened people. Chen Fang does not know the specifics, but he has heard that ordinary people may be sentenced to ten years for the same crime, while for awakened people, it destroys the source of origin. He was sentenced to twenty years in prison, which was quite heavy.
As for the reason, it goes back to the predecessor of the Char Federation, the time of the Grand League of Races.
At that time, the five major races had just united to fight the mutant creatures. As the first combat force, the awakeners had the absolute right to speak. The leaders and high-levels of all races were all awakeners.
Due to the huge external pressure in the early stage, awakened people are rare, and ordinary people and awakened people can share joys and sorrows.
But with the establishment of cities and the completion of the nine defensive walls, after the five races gradually settled down in the world, a thought that awakened people are higher than ordinary people began to breed.
After all, only the awakened can do it at the time that can fight mutant creatures, but ordinary people hide behind the thick city wall and enjoy the peace of the awakened life. If you are protected by me, then you should worship me and obey. Me, isn't this supposed to be.
So I don’t know how many years later, a very domineering figure appeared. After becoming the helm of the racial alliance, he promulgated a very ridiculous hierarchical division system that was welcomed by the awakened at that time.
This system divides people into three levels at the time. The awakened person is the most senior, then the family of the awakened person, and finally ordinary people, enjoying different levels of treatment.
The promulgation of this hierarchical system was resisted by the majority of ordinary people at the time, but it was useless, because the environment at that time was that the base of the awakened was much lower than the ordinary people; the strength of the awakened was much higher than that of the ordinary people; They are all awakened; the awakened can live without ordinary people, while the latter has a dead end without the former.
So this hierarchy is still implemented, but it exacerbates the contradiction between ordinary people and the awakened.
The awakened people originated from ordinary people, but the bases of the two are too different. Many ordinary people have never seen the awakened in their ancestors, and they have always been at the bottom of society.
Because the randomness of the appearance of the awakened person is too strong, even if the awakened person appears, the family will be prosperous, but if the awakened person does not appear in the family before the awakened person’s death, it will still be in a very short time. Weakness is reduced to the bottom of the society. It is conceivable how much social instability this system will bring.
This kind of short-lived wealth and wealth in the ups and downs has led to an inevitable situation, that is, once the awakened person appears in the family, the awakened person will start to make a fortune after being promoted.
After this happens, the contradiction between ordinary people and the awakened will inevitably intensify. In the end, large-scale conflicts broke out. The riots within the ethnic alliance, the security chaos and the lax defense, were picked up by the mutant creatures, and the five races almost came back. In a desperate situation.
In a domineering world, there must be a king who will kill him.
During the turmoil of the Major League, each of the five races appeared their own heroes. With their extraordinary personality charm, they shouted the slogan of equality for all, gathered a group of ordinary people, and helped some awakened people of insight. After instigating most of the army at that time, the five people finally united with five forces, and killed those in power and awakening who were domineering and blessed.
The specific process and tactics will not be said much. Anyway, after the five heroes took over the racial alliance, they changed most of the original system, established a five-ethnic assembly, renamed the Char Federation, and retreated behind the scenes.
At the same time, these five heroes were crowned the highest glory of their race by the people, and they were called emperors.
And those awakened who helped ordinary people in this struggle also enjoyed the praise of the world, and obtained the privileges granted by the Federation, which became the later family.
After the establishment of the Xia Federation, in order not to repeat the same mistakes, it began to restrain the awakened and established laws that were stricter than ordinary people.
These are the information that Chen Fang got when chatting with Fang Dazhao.
"The contradiction between the awakened and ordinary people has always existed. Even if the law favors one side in this way, it will not help. On the contrary, it will aggravate the contradiction between the two sides, but if you don't do this, it won't work."
But this is not a long-term solution. The most fundamental thing is to solve the power gap between ordinary people and the awakened. At the very least, it is necessary to have the power to counterattack when ordinary people face the awakened.
So in order to balance the combat power between the awakened and ordinary people, the Federation opened up all the scientific and technological materials left over from the mortal period and encouraged the funding of ordinary people to conduct research and experiments.
"Mortal technology was produced in this environment. They have been studying how to make ordinary people into something stronger than the awakened."
"Mechanical construction modification, fusion modification of human and mutant creatures, etc."
"What's the matter with the old glorious group of lunatics? The gods are dead~EbookFREE.me~ They still chant the slogan of restoring the age of the gods." Chen Fang asked.
"The former Rongguang Sect was a purely religious organization."
"But since the law against the awakened appeared, they have grown stronger."
"Huh?" Chen Fang was taken aback. He didn't understand why a law would make a religion grow.
"When the Federation was first established, the laws for the awakened were more stringent than it is now. It can almost be said that as long as the crime is found, the heart of the source will be destroyed."
"A person who has tasted extraordinary power can't be content after losing power."
"Later, for unknown reasons, the glorious people of the old days unexpectedly discovered that those awakened who have lost their heart of origin can gain divine power after worshipping a certain deity and offering sacrifices." Karen Heather explained.
"It turned out to be like this." Chen Fang understood.
"Why do these two forces trouble you?" Chen Fang asked again.
"Because of a study of mine."
"The study of transforming the core of the mutant creature into the heart of origin." Karen Heather slowly said something that shocked Chen Fang.
"This is impossible!"
"Why is it impossible?"
"The heart of the awakened person and the core of the mutant creature seem to be two different things, but their essence is indeed the same."
"You know, the heart of high-level awakened people is actually no different from the core of mutant creatures."
"What!" Chen Fang almost jumped up in surprise.
