Shen Shi's tone had no ups and downs from beginning to end.
Even when he said the last words, there was no sarcasm.
But just such a tone makes people feel that he is just describing a certain fact.
And his eyes.
While Shen Shi was speaking, his eyes swept over these people one by one, and many people who looked at him couldn't help but look away.
Including Curtis.
He didn't want to.
Curtis originally wanted to hold his head up high, but with his smile that he had practiced countless times facing the camera and was rated as "the most charming in the Nia Empire" by the media, he told the person who held the "ship ticket" that he was not
The kind of person the other person thinks.
But...that gaze was so penetrating.
It was an indescribable, even magical feeling. It seemed that everything about him was seen through the moment they looked at each other, leaving him unable to make any cover-up.
Actually...Curtis's feelings weren't wrong.
At this moment, Shen Shi has an external device.
Yes, that's the ball behind him.
This is the new type of facility sent by Gongchu. The full name still contains many untranslatable terms, but Shen Shi can shorten it to "original energy interstellar probe."
Like the original energy room of the spacecraft, several "original energy batteries" are also packaged in it.
Although its design function is not to be used as a plug-in device, the characteristics of original energy are here. Any original energy battery can be used to affect the will of life.
At this moment, it's just a small test.
"I'm not blaming anything." Shen Shi's figure slowly flew over, "Survival is the instinct of life. As a person in power, he has far more resources and power than ordinary people. It's normal to have this kind of thinking.
but."
Obviously we are in space, there is almost no gravity, and there is no difference in direction.
But the posture Shen Shi maintained made people feel that the direction he was stepping on was the earth.
Some people even involuntarily try to change their direction to align themselves with Shen Shi, otherwise they will feel uncomfortable.
Of course, more people focused on what Shen Shi said.
They had realized that Shen Shi seemed to want to tell them something.
This is exactly what happened.
"But I still want to say that you are naive, because your knowledge of interstellar navigation is too little and too shallow." He had already come to the middle of them, "So, before starting the main proposition, I must first explain it to you.
A lesson to learn about real interstellar navigation.”
"Please teach me, sir." Todd said seriously, showing enough respect.
"Yes, we do know too little about the universe."
"Sir, please speak."
"Only Your Excellency can understand this aspect."
The rest of the people expressed similar attitudes, which finally relaxed the atmosphere a lot.
And, what they said is actually correct.
If the knowledge about the universe and the stars is a subject, then Shen Shi is a well-deserved authority on this subject. At this moment, Shen Shi is willing to tell them more information about the universe, which they can only ask for.
After all, regardless of whether humans can win the war, the cosmic era will inevitably follow.
It's the Starry Sky Era.
"There are two important cognitions about the relationship between the universe and life." Shen Shi did not say too much nonsense, "The first one is that dangers in the universe are everywhere."
Just this sentence made many people's expressions freeze.
This reminded them of the feeling they had just had on the road.
From time to time, I can see hot light spots passing by, and occasionally I can see some larger things, long heat waves streaking through the thin air, plus some microscopic garbage that is invisible to the naked eye but does exist.
That feeling.
Isn’t it true that danger is everywhere?
But Shen Shi continued without pause: "The second one, the planet of life, is the best cradle for the development of civilization."
Two seemingly simple points.
Some people seemed thoughtful.
These two points of cognition were naturally not made by Shen Shi casually.
Even among all humans today, he is the only one who understands the true interstellar world, and only he is the absolute authority in this field. However, Shen Shi will not make up random things based on this.
Except for the lies used by the corporate interstellar society to cover up Shi Ling's existence, everything he said was true.
After all, as long as mankind does not perish, sooner or later they will come into contact with the stars and know this.
"Both of these two points seem to emphasize the importance of a living planet?" It was Wen Hezhi who spoke out.
He was also thinking.
"It doesn't seem like it, it just emphasizes the significance of the living planet to life." Shen Shi affirmed Wen Hezhi's statement, "The first point is easy to understand literally, but obviously, most of you don't understand it.
Without a deep understanding, it’s like you regard going to the universe as an exciting and novel experience... You seem to have forgotten that danger has always been present since humans first stepped into space.
.”
Many people are a little ashamed because they have indeed forgotten this.
Every time they send people into space, they must be precise and precise to minimize this risk.
But it's still a dangerous adventure.
There are not many tragic space disasters in human history.
After all, the space elevator and space suits that Shen Shi brought out were so magical, which gave them great confidence, as if with these, going to the universe was nothing.
The same is true for Shen Shi's spaceship.
It seems that as long as they have the qualifications to board the ship, they can live easily in the universe.
However, in fact, this is obviously not the case.
"There is a civilization with a similar technical level to the Wo civilization. Statistics have been made. Among all aircraft that use a single aircraft to conduct long-distance interstellar voyages, the probability of sinking in the universe due to various reasons within five hundred years is,
It’s about ninety-three percent.”
"Ninety-three percent?" One person even exclaimed subconsciously.
Most of the rest of the people were also a little commotion.
It's not that their concentration is weak, it's just that this number is too astonishing.
It has reached more than 90%, which means that if you are not particularly lucky, there is a high probability that it will sink and be destroyed.
Some people have indeed noticed many prerequisites for Shen Shi's increased probability.
For example, five hundred years, a single aircraft, long-distance voyages, etc.
There is also the most important technical level.
As far as they know so far, the incoming invaders do not have a high status or strength in the interstellar society called Mulder, or even a very low level.
But even so, behind this probability, there are still endless dangers.
It's really too high!
"This vast universe is originally a restricted area for life. In contrast, the nature of Blue Star is already gentle enough."
Shen Shi's still calm voice seemed to be revealing the dark reality bit by bit:
"Many dangers are still imaginable by humans, such as collisions occurring at sublight speeds. This is like the space junk you just encountered. Some of it can be resisted, but some of it will bring sudden destruction to the spacecraft.
, such as stellar helium flashes, black hole jets, and even gamma ray bursts produced by supernova explosions, can bring devastating disasters to lonely deep space navigators and even fleets. In addition, there are
Many crises are simply unimaginable to humans today, such as the chaos of curvature waves, spatial mutations in the transition process, cosmic ghosts, energy transformation...many crises, even among some extremely powerful civilizations,
There is still no reasonable explanation.”
As Shen Shi narrated, the sea of stars in front of him, which looked extremely beautiful on the blue star, seemed to have turned into a dark night containing countless unknown monsters, silently opening their bloody mouths.
, waiting for the arrival of the "guest".
It brings an extremely terrifying atmosphere.
In particular, what Shen Shi mentioned is only the danger of the universe itself, but there are many unknown and powerful civilizations in this sea of stars!
Didn't the end of the Wo people happen in the past only seven hundred years ago?
Everyone can't help but think of it.
Even if they really escape from Blue Star, can they really continue their lives in this sea of stars?
"But, Mr. Shen." Curtis couldn't bear it any longer. He couldn't help but asked, "What if we don't sail? I mean, find a relatively safe place to stop, and then live our own lives."
Life."
Without even realizing it, his desire for the universe and his "ticket" had changed somewhat.
I no longer fantasize that I can experience another life in the interstellar society that may be equally wonderful.
And just want to survive.
Live your life, maybe longer.
However, facing this prince who was already in his forties and had a high status, Shen Shi's response was still just two words.
"Innocent." His calm tone seemed to be without any emotion, "The universe is indeed too big. Just like you said, you just need to move slowly, or find a place that cannot breed life, but is relatively safe.
If the planet stops, it can actually avoid many dangers, but the things I just mentioned only account for about 28% of the 93% probability."
What?
Some people opened their mouths subconsciously.
If they weren't unable to breathe, I'm afraid they could still hear a lot of inhaling sounds.
This sentence is really unexpected!
These various crises, which sound extremely terrifying, only account for 28% of the sinking rate of those spacecraft!
So what happened to the other spaceships, and more spaceships?
Most people have been completely immersed in everything Shen Shi said.
This naturally has some original influence.
But more importantly, it is because these problems have been placed in front of them, related to their own future, and are no longer distant stories that have nothing to do with them!
"The rest of the crises..." Shen Shi paused for a moment, then stretched out his hand and pointed at his brain, "Almost all of them come from here."
From the brain?
Some people looked confused, while others looked thoughtful.
"For example, you should all have heard of deep sea phobia." Shen Shi said calmly, "Patients with such phobia are often afraid because they are afraid of being unable to escape from the situation they are in. They will feel that they are in a closed space.
It is difficult to escape from a space full of dangers, and the universe, to a certain extent, is another more terrifying deep sea and a more dangerous confined space."
This metaphor is easy to understand.
Even Curtis' expression at this time was slightly heavy.
Shen Shi’s voice continued:
“You never know whether the end and the end will come in the next moment.
When interstellar communication is extremely long and troublesome, your entire world is your spaceship, and the seemingly infinite universe outside is just a cage that imprisons you, dark and full of threats.
You will soon become familiar with every detail on your ship, including every crew member, including all stand-alone entertainment, and then you will begin to feel the endless monotony, the time that will not change in any way, and you will gradually
Thinking about whether such a life still has meaning, you would rather sleep than stay in this narrow world, but you cannot sleep forever, because in this crisis-ridden universe, every long sleep may lead to
It is death that can never be awakened. You will be constantly sleeping and waking up, realizing that this does not solve any problems, and even time has no meaning to you. Your life has become endless torture...
..."
Shen Shi's words seemed to have a strange magic power, bringing them to that infinite painful situation.
Yes, they can imagine.
The universe is their prison, the spaceship is their cell, and they can only live in this small cell throughout their lives.
Monotonous, boring, painful... until collapse.
Everyone was silent.
But Shen Shi did not push their emotions away from this despair. Instead, with a slow tone, he further pulled them into this boundless abyss.
"This is just one of the crises of will.
You should understand that every spacecraft sailing independently in the universe is a separate world and a completely independent society. The captain often has supreme rights, but during a voyage that can last for hundreds of years,
In this narrow and claustrophobic world, it is not surprising to see any changes.
Even some psychological phenomena are difficult to explain.
In this sea of stars, there are many such 'dead ships'. They have not suffered from foreign enemies or crises, but they are already dead. Their energy is exhausted, their bodies are decayed, and they have no life or consciousness.
, from the captain to the crew, and even the spacecraft itself, they all died in their own hell..."
What Shen Shi said is true.
Especially those civilizations that have not studied the original energy deeply enough, they do not have a good way to solve the crisis of will caused by space navigation, or even the process of wandering in the universe.
The smaller the spacecraft and the smaller the crew, the more likely this crisis will occur.
In this dark universe, the already fragile will of ordinary creatures appears even more insignificant and unbearable.
