What was the Dark Tide?
When they heard House Augusta's next plan, most people showed shocked expressions.
However, unlike Derek had imagined, where some might object, the descendants accepted it readily.
Elvis in particular shouted with great "enthusiasm," "This is a glorious evolution. If you're eliminated, that's fate's arrangement."
Yes, if it was an evolutionary carnival, it was understandable for the losers to be cast aside.
Derek felt that he had been shallow and needed to reflect.
Since they had reached an internal consensus, Derek made Elf the first executor.
The Augusta Family was stirring up an Evolutionary Tide, not engaging in charity.
If this universe needed evolution, it would certainly be under the order established by the Augusta Family.
The prerequisite for everything was actually a breakthrough in technology.
The construction technology for Interstellar Passages remained a difficult problem for the Great Xia Empire.
But abandoning that approach did not necessarily mean it was impossible.
If an Interstellar Passage was compared to an expressway, then what the Great Xia Empire needed to do was randomly open an exit along that expressway.
Beyond the newly opened exit might be wilderness, but it might also lead to a civilization.
After refining the technology, the research institute had already conducted hundreds of trial openings.
Based on observations from the star charts, they could basically confirm that the openings were roughly located within a certain region of space.
Though they could not understand the principles behind Interstellar Passage technology, they could still infer from the results that it followed certain patterns.
Planetary systems that seemed far apart were actually very "close" on some scale.
Of course, there was no need to dwell on such complex technical issues.
Elf only needed to wait patiently for the results of opening blind boxes.
If they
