Chapter 111: Information Warfare, Chu's Dilemma

How can Chu be dealt with? How can the Olive Branch Civilization be resolved?

Through force?

Yan Xia, of course, also wanted to use force to resolve the issue, but the Olive Branch Civilization is a colossal entity, and there are no stronger civilizations in the surrounding starry sky than the Olive Branch Civilization.

The Olive Branch Civilization is the ruler of this star domain.

To overthrow this ruler, the only reliance is on information.

Yan Xia created the 'Changer' within the Star City, using the fake Holy Grail Project to make Chu hesitate. This is also the use of information. Now, he uses another identity to control the soldiers and form a small Star City society, also to utilize information.

The message he conveys this time is:

Chu, your decision is flawed and not perfect.

The small Star City has made the same decision as Chu, and all the soldiers obey Yan Xia. A subtle class distinction has emerged within, but when the classes are clearly divided, the higher-class individuals and the lower-class individuals will view problems from different perspectives, leading to the division of the higher class.

The higher-class life forms realize that if they don't have room for advancement, they will become stagnant.

The lower-class life forms still yearn for the higher class. When the higher class is already overcrowded, the higher class will think, if all the lower classes become higher classes, what's the difference between them and the original higher class?

Therefore, the higher class suppresses the lower class from crossing the class boundary, leading to class contradictions.

Because the gap between the two classes is not significant, the lower class can quickly overthrow the higher class with its numerical advantage, as Chu has seen. The small Star City quickly collapses and disintegrates.

"This is a huge flaw."

Chu carefully thinks and judges. Why didn't he think of this before?

His plan should be stable and perfect.

"Wait, wait..."

"I need to make a correction."

The fleet that was originally going to set sail is now delayed because of Chu's hesitation.

When the development of a civilization is placed on the shoulders of an individual, it is easy to imagine the immense pressure that individual will face.

Yan Xia not only takes advantage of Chu's limitations as an individual but also exploits Chu's sense of responsibility for the civilization.

What is Chu's goal as a dictator?

Yan Xia has been observing this for a long time.

The result he has drawn makes Yan Xia initially dare not believe it.

Chu wants the Star City, or the Olive Branch Civilization, to become stronger!

This is Chu's inner desire.

Combining this with Chu's identity, Yan Xia understands that Chu's selection as a manager is based on his love for his own civilization. Even though Chu feels disgusted by the shared consciousness cluster, he still wants to become the third leader and lead the Olive Branch Civilization to another peak.

For this reason, the Holy Grail Project has a significant influence on Chu.

Yan Xia calls this "exploitable goodness."

...

"Chu's incentive plan is not bad. It's a necessary step in making changes."

"As long as it is controlled subtly, the entire civilization can remain stable."

"In Chu's initial thoughts, there should be one about class promotion and demotion."

"As long as the high-class individuals do not act recklessly and are demoted to the lower class after evaluation, without enjoying the benefits of the high class, then the problem of collapse will not occur again."

On a bright path, Yan Xia walks alone, his steps disorderly.

His expression is dejected, and he is deep in thought. All of this is for Chu to see, but in reality, he is thinking about Chu.

He also understands that Chu can figure these things out, but the collapse of the small Star City he created will still linger in Chu's mind because the structure collapsed too quickly.

In just a dozen days.

This is an extremely short period for any life form in the Olive Branch Civilization, which makes Chu hesitate. Can he control everything in such a short time?

Chu's confidence has a slight crack.

After the incentive plan was postponed for a day, Chu once again reached the quality of the Star City.

Hearing the sound, Yan Xia opens his eyes, still maintaining his original prone position without any change, not even moving his fingers.

His eyes move, and he sees Chu holding a bag of food. He smiles.

"I've been thinking, when will you give me food? After all, my body's nutrition can't last long."

"Thank you very much. You didn't forget about me. You came to see me after just a dozen days."

Yan Xia senses the gravitational restraint on his body being released, and he slowly stands up from the ground.

The bag of food in Chu's hand penetrates through the wall and reaches the room where Yan Xia is. Yan Xia takes it, opens it, and finds that it is a hamburger.

"Actually, I prefer to eat rice. The hamburger doesn't fit my eating habits. It's a fast food, not a staple."

Chu watches Yan Xia as he talks and eats the hamburger.

A chair appears behind Chu, and he sits down, then looks up at Yan Xia and says, "You've won this time."

"There's a lot of your style in this plan. I can feel it."

"If I wasn't sure you were here, I might have suspected that you sneaked out when I was away and made that plan."

Chu feels that the plan was designed by Yan Xia in advance, and Yan Xia had anticipated what he wanted to do.

This feeling is not good. The collapse of the small Star City makes Chu feel uncomfortable.

"What? I don't know what you're talking about."

"Aren't you currently carrying out your incentive plan? I guess your fleet should have already started."

"I really want to stop you, but that's no longer my task."

Yan Xia eats ravenously, and the more relaxed he seems, the more painful Chu feels.

Chu is racking his brains, thinking about many things, while Yan Xia, because he was caught and locked up, doesn't have to think.

At this moment, Chu has an illusion that he is the one who is locked up, otherwise, he can't explain the current state between them.

"No, the incentive plan has been suspended."

"Actually, I've been thinking, maybe what I did was a bit too radical."

"There's still a long time before the war with the Thread Civilization. In this long period, I can slowly make changes."

"Even if the Civilization Federation is like a galloping wild horse, it will be difficult to catch up to the gap between us in these years."

"So I guess I'll choose to wait."

Yan Xia listens with a smile on his face. Chu has no face, but his words don't lie.

Chu's hesitation is too obvious.

"I don't think you will. You will still act according to your plan."

"The time is long, but you can't bet on unknown changes, so you can only try to change what you can control now as much as possible."

After hearing this sentence, Chu leaves, and Yan Xia is once again pinned to the ground.

Yan Xia is delighted but also feels heavy-hearted.

He doesn't know if he has influenced Chu.

Can Chu remain clear-headed when facing the two of them?

If he can do that, the Civilization Federation will be in danger.

However, what Chu has shown now is good news for Yan Xia.

"Ella's side should also be ready by now."
