Chapter 1375 Civil and Military
Dragon-slaying illusion.
In the eyes of the ancients, whether it is the way of literature or martial arts, in essence, they are actually a path of self, and they all take a path of self-improvement...
Basically in ancient times, the existence of every strong man was essentially constantly improving himself. Whether it was wisdom or pure force, for them, the use of tools was always just an auxiliary to their own strength. They were always superstitious about their own strength and showed a disdainful attitude towards some new things...
In fact, because of this, any skilled craftsman in ancient times had a very low social status, and their skills were often called strange and delicate skills by the upper class, which was an inconvenient thing...
Even those craftsmen with very exquisite craftsmanship often have very low social status. In fact, many craftsmen, if compared to modern times, are actually inventors and even some people can be regarded as scientists. If they are in modern times, they should be very high social status, but in ancient times, their social status was actually very low...
On the contrary, those generals with high martial arts skills, or those with rich knowledge, often have a very high social status and hold great power...
After all, in ancient society, one's own abilities and strength were highly valued. Strong people could always gain a position that matched their strength. If they were not strong enough, even if they had won certain honors with some so-called tricks of tricks, they would still be looked down upon...
After all, this is a very typical suppression of the external way of self...
Just like when gunpowder first appeared and when muskets first appeared, the rulers actually did not pay much attention to this weapon. In their opinion, this non-mainstream weapon cannot be compared with bows and arrows that require skills and strength to be used. Of course, it is indeed true that the firearm failure rate at the earliest was very high, and the range was worrying. The firing rate was very slow. Of course, such weapons could not attract the attention of the rulers. Even if the army is equipped with such weapons, they are often only a small amount of equipment. It will not be popularized in modern times when it is truly used on a large scale for combat...
People are always used to a comfortable lifestyle that they are already familiar with, and thus subconsciously reject some other lifestyles...
For example, for those who go to work and get off work every day, those who like to go to nightclubs to fool around after get off work are often subconsciously disgusted...
On the contrary, for those who like to go out to play after get off work every day, if they are asked to go home obediently, they will often feel uncomfortable all over...
By the same token, people who are used to one lifestyle often subconsciously reject other lifestyles, and people who are used to a power system often subconsciously exclude other power systems...
For ordinary people, if they are accustomed to the life brought by technology, they will subconsciously reject the so-called way of practice. On the contrary, for those who are accustomed to practice, the so-called external objects of technology are also difficult to attract too much...
Just like people living in seclusion in the mountains and those living in the city, they live in completely different environments. There is no better way of life. It is nothing more than what kind of lifestyle to adapt to. People in the city will find it difficult to accept life in the mountains because they are used to prosperity. On the contrary, perhaps for people living in seclusion in the mountains, life in the city itself is also a torture...
People are always unwilling to change their lifestyle unless the new lifestyle is much superior to the original one, otherwise most people are sticking to the rules in their hearts...
It is because of this that whenever the wheels of history roll in, countless people will always be run over by the wheels...
The way of self and the way of external things are pursued by two completely different concepts, but even if the concepts of the two are different, there is actually no difference for people. They pursue only one thing, that is, which path can bring greater convenience to themselves...
As for the real world, there is no doubt that the external object method, which is mainly based on scientific and technological civilization, has gained an absolute advantage. The progress of scientific and technological civilization has gradually changed from initial disagreement to a little bit of recognition of the convenience brought to us by technology...
The convenience of technology has largely dispelled many of the dreams of many people when they were young...
For example, when you grow up, you want to be a knight who helps the strong and helps the weak, for example, when you grow up, you want to be a god, and be able to live forever, etc....
Many fantasies in childhood, when they grow up, often become a childish symbol. Many innocences will naturally disappear after being suppressed by reason...
With people's mature and rationality, more and more people have given up their initial unrealistic illusions, and even began to sneer at those who have the same illusions...
However, in Wang Yu's opinion, the existence of awakened people is to reverse the concept of ordinary people...
Do individuals have to serve the collective?
Can individual abilities definitely not override authority?
Will the individual's power be suppressed by technological power?
Can’t individuals’ strength truly change their fate?
This is the meaning of cultivation!
Yes, practice!
The biggest difference between the Awakened and the superpowered characters in Western comics is actually the cultivation...
Most of the superpowered heroes in Western comics have no room for growth. Their strength is often based on their own unique talents and abilities. In fact, they do not understand their own power. They are often just so-called knowing the truth, but they are far from knowing the reason...
The power system and cultivation system of the awakened person are actually an analysis of his own innate abilities. It is a subtle process from knowing what is going on to knowing why. When the awakened person understands his own abilities to a certain extent, they will even be able to explain their abilities to ordinary people who have no extraordinary power at all, and allow ordinary people to have a certain degree of extraordinary power...
This is a state that can only be achieved after a perfect understanding of one's own ability...
The process of cultivation is actually a kind of training and strengthening of self-power...
In fact, in a sense, supernatural power is theoretically something that everyone can master, but it is easier for awakened people to control this supernatural power than ordinary people. For ordinary people, they cannot use this power before they have studied how to control supernatural power...
Just like when martial arts was first born, not everyone could practice it. Only those martial artists with different talents could exert the power of martial arts. With these martial arts powers' research on their own strength, the research on martial arts can finally be promoted and even began to popularize it for every ordinary person to practice...
In fact, scientific research is the same. Generally speaking, the process of scientific research often involves first studying a special phenomenon, and then finding a way to make special conditions popular from the special phenomenon...
And in Wang Yu's opinion, the awakened one is such a pioneer!
The existence of the awakened person can be said to be the leader of human beings in the path of practice!
Yes, the leader!
This concept may never have occurred in the minds of many awakened people, because for many awakened people, even if they are training their own strength, they have never really thought about the source of their strength, nor have they thought about the one day that it is impossible for ordinary people to not have the ability to practice...
There is no other reason, because for the vast majority of low-level awakened people, deep in their hearts, they actually think that their abilities are a gift given to them by God, and this gift seems impossible to be popularized in them. Deep in their hearts, there is no idea of popularizing supernatural powers. They are stronger than ordinary people, and they are one level higher than ordinary people. This is also a common idea among the vast majority of awakened people...
In fact, for a long time, Wang Yu thought so. He felt that his power was a talent that belonged to him and was an inseparable part of himself, and it was impossible for others to think that he had supernatural power like this...
However, at this moment, when he truly began to understand the power of the awakened one, he already understood a little...
The power of the awakened person itself is not something that only the awakened person can practice. If you want ordinary people to practice the supernatural power that awakened persons must reach a sufficient height to do. With a certain height, you can often do something that others cannot imagine...
Only those who understand the power of the awakened person to a certain level can summarize the methods that allow ordinary people to cultivate the power of the awakened person...
Those who have not reached this level of awakening may not even have such thoughts and thoughts...
It's like the world in reality...
If you want an ordinary otaku to become a department-level official in five years, it may be a fantasy for most people. Even a businessman with a small fortune will be almost impossible to accomplish such a task. However, if it is a senior official within a certain system, it may not be so difficult to achieve such a goal...
For a person who has reached a certain level, they can often see clearly what ordinary people cannot see, and what ordinary people cannot do may be easy for them...
After all, it is nothing more than an understanding of rules and control of rules. Many rules may seem unshakable to some, but for those who control the rules, this is not the case...
For an ordinary person, it is undoubtedly an impossible task to turn a beggar on the roadside into a millionaire, even for those who have a lot of wealth. However, for those who have hundreds of millions of wealth and even more wealth, such a thing is just a simple task...
After all, it is nothing more than the different heights of the stations. When standing at a higher position, the more beautiful the scenery you can see...
For awakened people, things that ordinary awakened people cannot do or are unimaginable, and for peerless strong people above the realm and even above time and space, it is not an incredible thing...
Just like the so-called act of putting a dragon in the refrigerator, only peerless strong people in the realm of time and space like the old man can do it. Ordinary awakened people may not even imagine it!

Dragon-slaying illusion.
For Wang Yu, many things in this world were actually something he could not imagine before...
Especially the perception of power is even more so...
A long time ago, he always felt that it was natural for the strong to suppress the weak...
People who take the lead in any field often subconsciously suppress later generations, making them unable to reach the same height as themselves or even surpass themselves. This is an almost instinctive behavior. It is a kind of protection for their own interests...
Basically, this will happen in all areas in reality...
After all, any field is like a big cake. The size of the cake itself is limited, and the number of people who can get the cake is limited. The more latecomers, the fewer cakes that the pioneers can get. Although the cake itself can be made bigger and bigger, there are still limits to the big ones. Therefore, for the pioneers, their suppression of latecomers is actually commonplace...
Even in a small office, oppressing newcomers is a very common phenomenon...
In essence, the reason for this situation is nothing more than that resources are always limited. If you want to allocate more resources, you must occupy a more favorable position and form an effective monopoly as much as possible...
Resources are limited, but people who want to make a name for themselves are endless, so a situation will naturally form a situation where thousands of troops cross a single-plank bridge. Those who can pass will naturally be successful people who are highly anticipated, but losers can only fall off the cliff...
And the same principle is actually the same if it is placed on the awakened person. In the world of the awakened person, there is actually a situation of suppression and suppression to a greater or lesser extent...
Especially in the low-level awakened people organization, disputes between each other can be said to be very frequent. In fact, in essence, the low-level awakened people are actually not much different from those ordinary people. They also have the same struggle for power and profit as ordinary people, and they also have the same courage and courage as ordinary people...
This situation often exists at the level of super-scale organizations...
For the awakened organization, the awakened person itself is the most important resource. The number of awakened persons that an awakened organization can absorb is closely related to the territory controlled by the organization. The larger the controlled area, the higher the probability of gaining a powerful awakened person. In the same area, the more awakened person organizations at the same level, the greater the possibility of the awakened person's resource outflow...
It is because of this that organizations at the field level and above often suppress the rise of other new forces. If the other party is too weak, it will be wiped out or incorporated...
After all, it is nothing more than a competition for the resources of the awakened person...
The more awakened people, the faster their organization will develop and the stronger they will become. This is a very simple truth...
Wang Yu always felt that such behavior was a natural thing and a natural situation...
Although he did not agree with this, he did not have much disgust. It was nothing more than the so-called prey on the weak...
However, at this moment, he felt a completely different feeling...
He began to feel a little bit that the fighting between low-level awakened people was a matter of little significance. He began to realize that when the awakened people were strong to a certain extent, they might be able to easily allow ordinary people to gradually possess supernatural powers...
In this case, there is no meaning to him for the so-called awakened people's struggle...
Yes, it's meaningless!
After all, it is also a problem in the pattern...
For ordinary awakened people, awakened people need to compete for resources, but for peerless strong people who truly understand the power of awakened people, it is not necessarily a difficult thing to shape an ordinary person to become a strong person...
For Wang Yu now, although it is not necessarily possible to make ordinary people awaken, if he wants to make an ordinary person strong enough, he can do it...
After reaching this state, his strong understanding has become essentially different... (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
