Chapter 1099: Discuss

It was like what Fang Xingjian had seen. The world before him was like a world with an extremely high level of technological productivity.
The entire world was situated on a piece of metal land. This piece of metal land itself was a gigantic-scale spaceship that was one-tenth the size of the Sun.
The spaceship’s engine system ceaselessly supplied the entire spaceship with energy.
The young Hogan’s memories did not understand the principles behind the engine system. However, be it his parents, teachers, or friends, all of them said that this was some kind of perpetual motion machine which supplied all of the people on the land with an endless amount of energy.
Not only did this endless source of energy help this world’s people to change the environmental factors including the atmosphere and gravity, but it also made this world even more suitable for living. Through mass-energy conversion, the entire spaceship was also capable of producing its own food, maintaining the spaceship, and creating all sorts of tall buildings as well as high technological products.
It was like a small-scale universe that kept on expanding in all directions.
In fact, ever since this spaceship was born, it had already been through over 100 modification and expansion efforts.
The thing that Fang Xingjian was even more concerned about how this entire world belonged to one person—a woman called Catherine.
On this spaceship by the name of ‘Morning Star’, be it the spaceship itself, its energy, the variety of high technological products, right down to every inch of space, every breath taken, and every bit of sunlight, it all belonged to Catherine.
Ordinary citizens possessed nothing other than themselves. If they were to commit suicide or murder, it would be considered the most serious crime. They would lose themselves completely and become Catherine’s slave forever.
If other worlds were to have this world’s structure, the entire world would probably revolt and the people would rebel.
However, on the Morning Star spaceship, Catherine grasped the highest level of authority. Artificial intelligence would be constantly surveilling all the situations on the spaceship. She possessed countless weapons that could destroy cities, annihilate countries, and vaporize planets. Ordinary citizens were unable to put up any resistance at all.
“This Catherine already possesses everything that can allow her to be self-sufficient. So what’s her goal to nurture so many citizens?”
Fang Xingjian continued to read through the young man’s memories and gained some understandings.
In fact, even if there were no humans on the entire Morning Star spaceship, it could still be self-sufficient and did not require any human’s help. They were not even required to work.
However, Catherine constructed cities, set up schools, and selected talents based on certain systems, distinguishing people into different grades and ranks.
Talents of different levels could possess different levels of authority. They could even be equipped with all sorts of high technological weapons and gain more rights to command the lower-tiered citizens.
The most important part in nurturing human talent—or rather, the determining results—would be the strength of one’s spiritual ability.
However, the objective behind why Catherine was selecting people like this was not something that could be found in the young man’s memories.
“Spiritual ability?”
Just as Fang Xingjian was contemplating about these, the two flying devices had already brought him along and flown off rapidly, heading toward the location where they kept the arrested criminals.
Fang Xingjian’s gaze flickered slightly, and he suddenly said, “Wait a second. I request to take a spiritual ability test.”
The two flying devices instantly stopped, and an invisible ray swept through Fang Xingjian’s body. Immediately after, several small-scale robots that were the size of fingers flew around Fang Xingjian, stretching out many tentacles around his body.
“Spiritual ability test has started. Please freely release your spiritual ability.”
Spiritual ability was the greatest factor that determined the statuses and identities of the people in this world. It was also the most important result for the students in schools.
As long as one’s spiritual ability was high enough, then the suicidal crime the young man committed earlier could also be pardoned.
This meant that what Fang Xingjian needed to do now was falsify a spiritual ability result.
