Chapter 6437 Take Control of Our Evolution

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

From the moment the Evolution Witch spoke to all humans trapped in the Red Ocean, she uplifted everyone's spirits.

A god pilot was one of the most authoritative leaders that people could encounter.

To witness a live address of an honored god pilot in their lifetimes was one of the greatest honors that most ordinary people could obtain!

No individual dared to express contempt at the Evolution Witch's words.

Even her critics and political opponents had no choice but to set aside their animosity and take her words and vision seriously.

That was because she was essentially correct. Red humanity was evolving, and people needed to take active control over their improvement.

The Red Collective would not have any room to squeeze its way between the Red Association and the Red Fleet if there was no need to worry about this problem.

The resplendent woman had currently taken on her human form. Though she looked a lot smaller than her god mech, nobody could ever mistake her for being a weak and fragile human.

As the center of a God Kingdom, the Evolution Witch's human facade turned into a nexus of transcendent willpower. The fabric of relativity that encompassed the entire Shrine of Light had fallen under her control!

It was trivially easy for her to enhance her presence and make sure that everyone paid serious attention to her words.

Speaking moments like this were rare, so the Evolution Witch made sure she could take as much advantage of this situation as possible!

"We have entered unprecedented times. The Red Ocean has turned from a barren desert into an oasis of life. The very dwarf galaxy is changing before our eyes. With each passing day, more mundane materials are being transformed into hyper materials. The rate of exobeasts are evolving into mutated beasts has increased so much that a dedicated organization is required to contain this threat. Even the native aliens are beginning to explore the limitless potential of exotic radiation."

Her expression darkened a little when she mentioned the alien threat.

She had strong feelings about their current enemies, so everyone around her could clearly perceive her hostility towards the natives of the Red Ocean.

"Do not forget that the native aliens have equal access to the benefits of E energy radiation as us. They have already begun to research and adopt a wide variety of hyper materials, even going as far as stealing our own applications. The major alien races have also begun to conduct research on how they can absorb E energy radiation to promote their own growth. Their methods are crude and immature, but their willingness to defy

their old traditions in the face of war is commendable. Will you agree to allow the native aliens to overtake us in the field of cultivation?"

Nobody wanted this to happen!

Even the people who felt most reluctant about unleashing cultivation onto human society did not wish for the native aliens to gain a lead in this aspect!

The Evolution Witch smiled as if everything proceeded according to her expectations. "It is for this reason that the Red Collective must exist. We are different from the humans that we have left behind in the Milky Way Galaxy. Our distant brothers and sisters do not share the same pressures as us. Their bodies are not being irradiated by exotic radiation every second of the day. Our struggle to survive is so much greater that we can no longer abide by the old rules that have served humanity well for centuries or millennia. In the survival of the fittest, the species that tend to persist the longest are not necessarily the strongest, but the ones that adapt the best to changing environments. We have now found ourselves in this exact same situation. We adapt, or we go extinct. There is no middle ground."

The god pilot uncomfortably reminded everyone that they could no longer go back to the old status quo. That was the most foolish decision to make of all, because it was no different from burying their heads in the sand. They could not afford to stick to old solutions that no longer worked because their environment had drastically changed for the worse!

Her message was clear. People needed to change. Those who stood in the way of this righteous cause would only be doing their enemies a favor!

"The Red Collective is an organization that can only exist in an upright manner in the Red Ocean." The Evolution Witch continued to espouse her propaganda. "We are far superior to the humans who have the misfortune of remaining behind in the Milky Way. Not only do we have access to an endless source of energy to stimulate our evolution, we also have the foresight and courage to let go of the old and embrace the new. Each of us have begun a journey that will lead us to unknown destinations. None of us can predict whether your path leads to greatness or doom, but moving forward is always better than remaining stagnant. Be proud of that, fellow red humans. By possessing the courage to take control of your evolution, you have already exceeded the qualities of the stagnant humans that are still wallowing in their complacency in the old galaxy." Many people including Ves knew exactly what the Evolution Witch was doing.

She was strengthening the collective identity of red humanity by denigrating original humanity.

It was one of the oldest tricks in the book, but it was incredibly common and effective for many reasons.

People always liked to lord over others. Society was never fair, and people always wanted to be at the top rather than the bottom.

By using original humanity as her scapegoats, the Evolution Witch could beat this

subject up as many times as she wanted in order to strengthen red humanity's sense of superiority!

It was not as if all of the folk back in the Milky Way could do anything to retaliate and stop the Evolution Witch from insulting their honor.

If they possessed a means to cross 50 million light-years in an instant, then the humans of the Milky Way would have found a way to cross this immense distance already! The only point Ves was uncertain about was why the Evolution Witch found the need to employ such a low-level method to rouse red humanity's sense of pride.

There were much more elegant and uplifting ways to achieve similar results. Ves did not see much point in bringing up original humans as they have become completely irrelevant in the new frontier.

The Evolution Witch deliberately swept her gaze towards the rows and rows of cultivators raised by the precursor of the Red Collective.

From the mighty Ur-Titans to the humblest civilian cultivators, each of them maintained extremely respectful and humble stances in front of the female god pilot.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

The supremely powerful woman smiled more affectionately at these model cultivators.

"An entire standard year has passed since a great young man has proposed the formation of a new organization. Its mandate is multifold. It must first promote the cause of cultivation within our civilization. It is tasked with managing the practitioners of cultivation and ensuring they remain productive members of our society. It is also responsible for enforcing the laws governing cultivation and meting out punishment against rulebreakers that can form a serious threat against their fellow humans. Lastly, it must discharge its responsibilities within a legal framework that makes it accountable to the population at large."

This was pretty much the core mission statement of the Red Collective. Even though everyone important enough already knew about it, it was still important for the Evolution Witch to mention this during the ongoing founding ceremony.

No one weaker than a god pilot dared to defy her commands. Anyone who tried to work against the mission statement of the Red Collective implicitly defied the will of the

Evolution Witch!

Anyone who did so without the backing of another god pilot opened themselves up to retribution from the Human Biodisaster herself!

Although it would be extremely uncouth and counterproductive for the Evolution Witch to take action in person to squash a human power because of political disagreements, the mere threat that this might happen should keep many naysayers honest!

In fact, the Evolution Witch did not even have to take action in person. There should be many sycophants and political opportunists who would be glad to clean up her weaker opponents on her behalf!

Seeing that the right people had received her implicit warning, the Evolution Witch

continued with her speech.

"The Red Collective may be small and lacking in many facilities after only a single year of preparation, but its foundation is strong and its future is unlimited. As long as it develops along a healthy trajectory, I have no doubt that it will stand equal to the Red Association and the Red Fleet one day. We must all remain patient and avoid demanding overly hasty results. Much of the property and personnel of the current Collective are loaned or donated from other sources, but this is not a detriment, as everyone agrees that we must take control over our own evolution. No matter whether you are a mecher, a fleeter or a citizen of a state, you are all red humans, and you are all mutating under the distant light and radiation of Messier 87. The Red Collective will always have a mandate as long as that remains constant."

This time, she demanded patience from those that expected the Red Collective to solve all of their problems. Not even a god pilot could make that happen. "Now that you understand why we need the Red Collective, I shall explain its governance, which is different from what you are accustomed to seeing from the Red

Two."

The Evolution Witch succinctly explained the power structure of the Red Collective.

She briefly mentioned the establishment of the legislative branches in the form of an Upper Council and a Lower Council.

She pointed out that the Office of Executors fulfilled the function of an executive

branch.

She also mentioned the various departments.

The Enforcement Department happened to hold most of the judicial power at the

moment.

Everyone was somewhat satisfied.

The big players remained confident they could prevent the Red Collective from damaging their core interests by possessing seats in the Upper Council.

The ordinary citizens at the bottom finally felt they gained a voice through the Lower

Council.

Ambitious carcerists were eying the many open positions within the departments that urgently needed to be filled!

The founding of the Red Collective ruined a lot of plans, but opened many future possibilities to a lot of individuals who previously remained stuck in their current

circumstances.

Through the Evolution Witch's deliberate words, the Red Collective was bound to become synonymous with progress!

The Evolution Witch sure knew how to conduct good PR, but only if she cared about

other people's opinions.

"The Red Collective is new and still in flux. Its rules and its governance may undergo significant changes as it continues to perfect and improve its operations. From today onwards, every council, every office and every department must begin their work with the common cause of human evolution in their minds. Each of us are the first to embark on this societal experiment. We must perform at our best in order to set good examples

to the generations to come. All of us must work together to fulfill the mandate set by the

people."

This was easier said than done. Much of the RC was bound to be divided by different parties. The Office of Executors would probably have their hands full trying to stop or limit all of the political maneuvers that were taking place.

So long as humans remained selfish, no one could ever solve this problem! "Every labor should yield a reward. None of the members who are ready to dedicate their

lives to the Red Collective will remain impoverished. It is too premature to introduce a new currency, but every worker and contributor to human cultivation will have the opportunity to earn RC merits, which can be redeemed for a large variety of rewards."

RC merits!

Sure enough!

Red humanity had gained one more way to rise above their stations and earn their way

to prosperity!
