Xiao Yu has been waiting for this information for a long time. Xiao Yu is very eager to get some information about the information storm from here, so as to find a direction for his struggle.
But the arrival of this piece of information made Xiao Yu's heart sink to the bottom again.
"The latest monitoring results show that the information storm from the Andromeda Galaxy will reach the Milky Way star field ten years earlier. At the same time, the risk level has increased from level B to level A. All civilizations that can receive this message, please import this information immediately
Your central computer's program will automatically start the manufacture of simple over-distance communication equipment, and then please contact us, and we will immediately send someone to welcome you into the safe zone. Please note that this is your last chance."
"Broadcaster: Guardian Alliance Headquarters."
Looking at this message, Xiao Yu spoke for a long time.
"Arrived ten years early... Doesn't that mean that in five years, the information storm will come? What should I do? How to do it?"
Xiao Yu's heart felt extremely heavy.
"I don't know the killing mode, I don't know how to avoid it, I don't know anything, how should I deal with it?" Xiao Yu thought silently, and the excitement of mastering the unified theory was completely dissipated by this piece of information.
Xiao Yu once again summoned Lucca scientists and started a discussion.
So far, this information has remained secret from Lucca society, with only some of the highest-ranking Lucca figures eligible to participate in the meeting.
During the meeting, Xiao Yu made this information public, and immediately the Lucca scientists fell into a heated discussion.
"Quiet." Xiao Yu made a sound and signaled all Lucca scientists to quiet down. Then he said: "The purpose of holding this meeting is to let everyone discuss together. How should we deal with this crisis?"
The venue fell silent, no one spoke.
Xiao Yu sighed and said, "No one has any opinions?"
Luca 3 hesitated for a moment, stood up, and said: "Let me express my opinion. At present, we know nothing about the information storm. Even if we want to prevent it, we don't know what to do. So, we can only follow what we know.
knowledge and discuss it.”
"We might as well assume that information storms are an astronomical phenomenon similar to super star explosions, or we can combine methods to deal with super star explosions to defend against them."
"Very good, keep talking." Xiao Yu gestured.
Luca 3 continued: "Everyone must be aware of the relevant information about super star explosions. I won't repeat it. Well, the main means of destruction of super star explosions is strong gamma ray bursts, which will destroy the interior of our spacecraft.
All the instruments it carries, the extremely high energy it carries, can even burn our spacecraft. Faced with the phenomenon of super star explosions occurring at close range, the only way we can deal with it is to hide behind a certain star and use it as a basis.
Only with a shield can we escape."
"So, my suggestion is to find a star and hide all our fleets behind it."
After Luca Three finished speaking, he sat down.
Someone immediately expressed their objection: "I think this will help. If you can avoid this information storm by simply hiding behind the star, why should the Guardian Alliance be so serious about it? Besides, gamma rays
Storms propagate at the speed of light. The propagation speed of this information storm is definitely greater than the speed of light. These are clearly two different phenomena. How can we prevent information storms in the same way as we prevent super star explosions?"
Luca 3 retorted: "Finding a star to hide behind is at least better than doing nothing and waiting to die here."
Another person stood up and said: "Let me express my opinion. According to our current speculation, bypassing the limitations of relativity and achieving super-light transmission is achieved by converting energy into gravity and bending the surrounding space through gravity.
, that is to say, curved space is the main process of super-light transmission. Since this information storm propagates at super-light speed, can it be inferred that it is also achieved through curved space? Perhaps, we can create a simple
The space bending layer constructs a protective shield to avoid the damage of the information storm?"
"I object." Another person stood up and said: "Super-light navigation is a technology that a fourth-level civilization will inevitably master. Don't forget that the Guardian Alliance is a sixth-level civilization, so they can all take it seriously.
, I don’t think we can find a way to defend against information storms through the technological means of level four civilization.”
"Then, what do you mean, we just do nothing and wait here to die?" another Lucca scientist retorted.
"No." The man continued, "Since there is no hope of defending against the information storm through our own efforts, we can only use the natural environment to avoid this catastrophe. I agree with finding a star and hiding under it.
The next step."
In the conference hall with hundreds of people, Luca scientists stood up and expressed their opinions one after another. Xiao Yu listened quietly beside him.
"I think we should follow the instructions of the Guardian Alliance, import that information into the central computer, and let the Guardian Alliance save us!" During the heated discussion, suddenly, an excited young Luca scientist stood up
He stood up and shouted loudly.
Just as the last word of this paragraph fell, the hall fell silent for an instant. Hundreds of Lucca people looked at each other, and no one spoke.
"Why are we so guarded against the Guardian Alliance?" The man continued to shout, "It's not like we haven't lived under the protection of the Guardian Alliance! Even if the master is a special being who combines the soul with the computer, who can
Are you sure that the Guardian Alliance will definitely be detrimental to the master? Or, we can let the master hide it and pretend that we are just an ordinary technological civilization?"
"We do not have the right to make a decision on this issue. The final result must be subject to the master's will." After a moment of silence, Luca No. 2, as the leader of all the Lucans, stood up and said.
Hundreds of eyes were all looking at Xiao Yu's shadow on the rostrum.
Xiao Yu began to think deeply.
In the silence, Luca Three slowly said: "As for the final decision of the master, I choose to be with the master."
"I am a Lucca native who was born during interstellar voyages. I have not lived in the safe zone of the Guardian Alliance, but through the descriptions of my elders, I have some understanding of life in the safe zone.
"
"Living under shelter is not so beautiful. In the safe zone, in order to obtain contribution points to ensure our survival, we have to sacrifice time to develop science and technology to complete each task. When facing advanced civilization
, we have to grovel and do our best to satisfy their greed. If we make them unhappy even a little bit, we will be retaliated and assigned some dangerous tasks, which will lead to the death of thousands of people and other races of the same level.
There are secret fights and intrigues between us, and if we join the Guardian Alliance, we will not be able to break away again. We can only continue to contribute our strength. Unless our race is destroyed, we will never be able to escape."
"I don't know if you have noticed that in the Guardian Alliance, we have lost our dignity as an independent civilization. The acquisition of technology is not obtained through our own research, but through contribution, and we have gained security
, but have lost the ability to develop themselves.”
"That kind of life is not what I want. In comparison, I like the life we live now. Without the oppression of advanced civilizations or the exhaustion of obtaining daily necessities, we can devote ourselves wholeheartedly to the research of science and technology.
Seeing that with our efforts, we are getting stronger bit by bit, isn’t this great? There is a saying among the master’s race that there is no free lunch in the world. We have received the protection of the Guardian Alliance without giving anything.
At the corresponding price, how can there be such a good thing?"
Luca No. 3 sat down, and the venue fell into silence once again.
"I agree."
"I agree."
"I agree. If we stay in the starry sky, we will not necessarily die, but if we return to the Guardian Alliance, we will definitely lose the good life we have now."
All the Lucca scientists stood up, whether they were wrinkled old scientists or high-spirited young scientists, they all said the same words.
"I would rather face death in the starry sky than return to the Guardian Alliance."
"Of course, the final decision-making power rests with the master." Luca No. 2 said.
Xiao Yu was still thinking silently. While thinking, Xiao Yu carefully recalled everything he had experienced from the time he left the earth until now ten thousand years later.
"Based on the words of the white dwarf alien beast, my existence seems to be the result of a deliberate experiment by some super civilization, and I am a successful test subject."
"From the initial controlled departure from the solar system, to the alien beasts on the white dwarf, to the corpse of an Earth woman in the 1990s spacecraft, all of this seems to be connected with a clue."
"Someone is watching me in the dark."
"I'm wondering whether it was accidental or inevitable that I met the earthly human soul that turned into a ghost tribe. Did my tribe realize that I was in danger and rushed to save me, or did this existence give them a hint, and through the ghost tribe's relationship
Hands to help me out of trouble."
"Then, there is a question that is worth thinking about. What will they do during this crisis?"
"I think they won't just watch me die after being affected by the information storm. So... what methods will they use to help me survive this disaster?" To be continued. If you like this work,
