Wandering Spaceship in Deep Space Chapter 216: The declining civilization
"...A civilization 20 light-years away has reached our satellite and is carrying out colonial activities?"
The Gliese people in the conference room heard the news, and Qi Sensen was taken aback.
They deeply know how huge the astronomical figure of 20 light years is, and how much power is needed to cross it!
is incredible, even... inexplicable! Because this kind of colonial activity has no benefit at all.
"We are just a plain star field, right? Why did you choose this place?"
"It may be because of the existence of liquid water... the living environment is more similar to ours."
"However, they cannot overcome our microbial environment, even if there is liquid water on our planet?"
talking in a rush, all the Gliese people are very anxious.
"...That is to say, the electromagnetic waves that this civilization called humans have been sending before are all to detect whether there are intelligent life here? If there is no response, they will come to interstellar colonization?"
But, with the idea that more is worse than less, their original ancestors did not reply to anything...the first release
This incident has already happened, so there is no room for regret.
There was a long silence in this small small room.
I saw the astronomer continue to say: "Please be safe, everyone, according to the observations these days, the other party's scientific and technological strength is not as advanced as we imagined, but at a relatively delicate stage... In short, it’s not powerful."
"Their spacecraft is about 300,000 kilometers away from us, and there is only one. There is no artificial gravity, and there is no technology that exceeds our expectations."
It turned out a photo just taken and showed it to everyone, with a blurry image of the Earth Age on it.
"...Yes, there is only one mothership. This mothership is quite large and should be loaded with a large number of people. I even suspect that in order to cross such a long distance, this mothership does not have the tonnage to carry anything. Weapons."
"Using our most powerful interstellar missiles and loading some nuclear warheads, it should be possible to hit and destroy the opponent’s mothership... In this way, the opponent loses the mothership and will soon become extinct here."
was silent for a while, and another Gliese person yelled: "Choose war, Davian, are you crazy? We are in our current state. It is impossible to withstand a war!"
"Plus, where did the nuclear warheads come from...According to the peace treaty, we have all destroyed these weapons...even tens of thousands of years!"
"Yes, we don't have such a weapon..."
"There has been no war for a long time."
"We don't even have enough soldiers..."
Many Gliese people are discussing the feasibility of this plan, and the current state of civilization is really a bit bad...
"...Even if the nuclear bomb production line is restarted, relying on our city’s industrial capabilities, at most one interstellar rocket can be built within half a year, plus a few nuclear warheads, even if it hits, it does not completely destroy the enemy’s mother. The possibility of a ship... will only cause an endless civilized war without death!"
"Can we afford this kind of consequences?"
hesitated for a while, the astronomy expert named Davian seemed a little unwilling, and then said: "If..."
"What if?"
"...Human civilization is developing our satellites. As time goes by, their industrial capabilities will become more and more powerful. If you want to launch an attack, you must be as early as possible instead of procrastinating here... …Otherwise, such an opportunity will slip away in no time."
The leader was silent for a while, "Is it possible for them to leave?"
"The probability is very low...They came here through a long interstellar voyage. The fuel in the spacecraft has probably been exhausted and it is impossible to make the next interstellar voyage. Let them leave here, and let them It’s no different to die..."
Another pangolin said angrily: "Why is this happening? Isn't it... the population is so large that even a planetary system can't hold it... If so, it is likely to be a civilization with a colonial tendency that expands out infinitely!" "
When I think of the same planetary system, which contains two different intelligent civilizations, and the other is booming, there is also a tendency to colonize expansion; but oneself is weak, the people have no fighting spirit, everyone here is Gurley Ze people all had a faint sense of panic.
"Don’t be nervous, maybe it’s a friendly civilization! They sent a lot of electromagnetic wave signals in advance, which should be the meaning of inquiry, because we didn’t reply, we mistakenly thought it was a land of no owner... It has basic thinking logic and etiquette culture."
"Maybe we can try to communicate!"
"We can cooperate friendly...No one likes war!"
There was a noisy quarrel in the whole room, and all kinds of disagreements were big.
"Enough!" The leader screamed heavily, suppressing all the voices, and then it returned to normal. "This is not a risk our city can take. Other cities really Is there no response?"
"They...have no opinion."
"What does it mean to have no opinion?"
" It’s just no opinion, an indifferent attitude, how long you can hide, at most during this period of time, some weapons that can protect yourself are produced, and it is impossible to attack... You also know what the outside city is. It looks like it is impossible to withstand a war between civilizations."
These high-level officials discussed for a while, and they were determined to produce some weapons that could protect themselves, but they didn't want to launch an attack first.
"Hey, let's talk about peace after we have a certain strength... If we can get along with each other, it would be great."
When a scholar heard this kind of surrender remarks, he jumped in anger, "What, peace talks? This is the home of the Gliese people! Do you think all civilizations are friendly civilizations?"
"We have no interest entanglements... Why do we have to war?"
Another person also said: "Yes, we just hide under the ground... Is the other party’s civilization good or bad? What does it have to do with us? As long as we develop enough weapons, we can protect ourselves and the other side will attack What's the point of us?"
"As long as we have the ability to attack each other and threaten each other, this peace can continue."
What makes some Gliese people angry is that ~IndoMTL.com~ This kind of dovish remarks is not only one, but there are many! Even those who agreed to peace negotiations accounted for the vast majority of the entire civilization, including their supreme leader!
Their city is pretty good, and we can discuss countermeasures seriously here.
The rest of the cities... are still in that state of drunkenness, and there is no determination to start a war at all.
The discussion of is here, and it can't help but mourn...
This is a civilization that has completely sank... It can't be saved, and I can't think of a good way to save it.
Almost all the people are indifferent to what is happening in the outside world, so they hide in the underground city. Even if they encounter the threat of death, they still have an indifferent attitude...Unless the sharp knife really cuts the skin, it is possible to jump up and resist, that is, resist for a second or two, and then lie on the ground obediently.ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~中文网ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм
is simply...unreasonable!
"War! We need a war to save the entire civilization and cheer everyone up!" This scholar thought in his heart: "If you fail, then...die together!"
Several other Gliese people who reported the same idea also glanced at each other cautiously, as if they had made up their minds.
What human civilization does not know is that because of the emergence of human beings, on the opposite life planet, various differences within a civilization have occurred, and even a political riot has quietly occurred!
The crisis is coming!
