I Really Didn’t Mean To Be The Saviour Of The World

Chapter 312: Chapter 219: Digging One’s Own Pit and Burying 0neself_2

Translator: 549690339

Without upgrading individual weapons, humans entering the space environment would be utterly powerless.

Human genes’ awakening levels have been increasing, making individual combatants more and more relevant.

Furthermore, with humans’ imaginary enemy being an unpredictable invader, a variety of combat modes must be developed.

Driven by various factors, after the Azure Dragon Armor, Summit Armor, and the Morrowind System, similar equipment has appeared and been phased out.

In short, the 389-year history from 2530 to 2919 was a warped history of war, with major nations prospering while smaller ones struggled for survival, forcing people to migrate.

Then, a “person” abruptly ended the internal wars of humanity, with the situation turning upside down in an instant.

In 2919, a sudden change occurred as the superintelligence — radium — awakened from the Quantum Network and greeted humanity.

It ended the civil war in an instant and initiated an even more brutal battle of betrayal between the mother civilization and its sub-civilizations.

Harrison Clark had already seen the subsequent development of the times and decided not to waste more time looking.

He closed the historical materials and began a lengthy process of reflection and self-analysis.

First, he tried to analyze the history of the first 500 years.

Humans were still divided for a full 500 years, and even with Harrison Clark’s potential influence as a leader in both science and art, the competition seemed fiercer than before.

Most likely, he unknowingly left an overly strong sense of competition in his achievements throughout his life, perhaps due to his belief in James Diaz’s competition theory.

It could also be human nature, increasingly out of control as technology advances.

The problem returns to its origin. If there is a great leader to guide the way, then the secondary competition can develop in a purely positive direction.

But if a great leader is not born by chance, and humanity never experiences a major change that nearly annihilates them, then no matter how hard Harrison Clark tries, the World Government will not be able to achieve a stable state before 2500.

Pushing human history back 5,000 years, the first sentence of The Canterbury Tales says, “The world’s tendency is to merge if divided too long and to divide if united too long.”

This statement, by Geoffrey Chaucer, summarizes Chinese history and is equally applicable to the entire history of humanity.

Competition is a human instinct and cannot be defied unless there is irresistible external pressure.

When there are no external enemies, seemingly cruel internal competition has its own value.

Assuming there are no invaders, even when humans enter the cosmic era and set foot throughout the Milky Way Galaxy, competition still exists.

In short, competition is a double-edged sword — if used well, it can kill enemies, if used poorly, it can harm oneself.

Harrison Clark believes that he is not yet capable of evaluating the pros and cons of competition, nor can he accurately control history from a distance, so he can only experience it as a bystander and participant.

He can only rely on consequentialism and believe that ultimately, he will get the answer.

His evaluation criteria are both complex and simple: regardless of ideology or social system, if humanity can defeat the invaders, it is the right system.

The history of war after 2530 is even more complicated.

Who knows how many people died in the centuries of warfare?

Why did radium appear, and how did it become like this?

Harrison Clark thought for a long time, feeling a vague sensation in his brain but unable to find the exact answer.

He couldn’t jump to conclusions, so he put the thought aside for now.

Next, with a relatively relaxed perspective, he focused again on the early 21st century, paying closer attention to Avril Green’s situation.

There was no other reason but curiosity about how she lived her life.

Finally, Avril caught up with Carrie Thomas, who she could once only aspire to, and entered the top hundred a millennium ago.

Across the Starry Sky elevated Avril’s historical status, but her achievements were not solely due to Across the Starry Sky.

Harrison Clark did not expect her to fully grasp the Space Rock style conveyed in Across the Starry Sky.

This style was unlike punk, blues, metal, or visual rock; instead, it broadly employed new technologies, conveyed a cosmic spirit, and utilized ethereal yet explosive singing techniques. It could be called an all-encompassing new rock style that brings everything together.

Harrison gave her only one song, but it ignited her entire creative force, and in return, she gave him an era of Space Rock.

In 2023, Avril Green completely severed ties with her family and chose to walk her own path, living for herself.

However, her career did not decline rapidly as it had in the past when she abandoned her family’s support.

In the following decades, she composed nearly a hundred high-quality Space Rock songs. The best among them were nearly as famous as Across the Starry Sky.

She became the driving force behind the musical renaissance, second only to Carrie Thomas. After singing only a few songs that Harrison Clark had left for her, she completely surpassed her peers like Ward Owen, Leah Clark, and Jenny Hart, as well as numerous foreign singers.

If Carrie Thomas was unrivaled, Avril Green ranked just below her, above everyone else in her era.

Harrison Clark was shocked by her performance but also felt it was within reason.

Being able to compete with Carrie Thomas while covered in mud meant she had the talent and should not be reduced to mediocrity.

The root cause of these changes could be the conversation between Harrison Clark and Avril Green that night, but it could also be the profound implications conveyed in Across the Starry Sky that changed her character..
