Just like Xiao Yu said, the conditions necessary for a fifth-level civilization to be promoted to a sixth-level civilization determine that this process cannot be peaceful. This process will inevitably be accompanied by war and killing.
Xiao Yu even began to wonder whether there was a certain existence in this universe that deliberately formulated such rules. The purpose was to prevent civilizations from living in peace and having to fight against each other. The selfishness of civilizations determines
A certain civilization is unwilling to allow other civilizations to improve their strength, and the expansion of civilization determines that this civilization will do whatever it takes to improve its strength. This is an irresolvable contradiction.
As far as Xiao Yu is concerned, Xiao Yu wants to upgrade himself to the sixth level civilization, so Xiao Yu will try to obtain the unique technologies of other civilizations. At the same time, Xiao Yu is unwilling to let other civilizations upgrade to the sixth level, so he will
His unique technology is kept secret. In other words, Xiao Yu is only willing to ask for it, but not willing to pay.
When every fifth-level civilization is only willing to take but not willing to pay, there is really no other way to solve the problem except war.
"The path forward for our Shenzhou civilization must be paved with the flesh and blood of other civilizations. Only by killing enough civilizations and paving the way long enough can we follow this path and enter the category of sixth-level civilization. In
In this process, we may succeed, or we may fail and become a stepping stone for other civilizations to move forward. This is a journey full of blood and fire. Everyone, please be mentally prepared in advance." Luca 2 said quietly.
, the voice is full of a strange desolation.
There was silence in the conference room. Everyone was thinking about this issue.
"We have the ball of death, we have primary space weapons, and we have four protective shields. Even in the not-too-distant future, we will have a continent-level spaceship made entirely of the flesh and blood of level four alien beasts. By analyzing the technology tree of the Molian civilization
, and by analyzing the development of applied science and technology brought about by the Guardian civilization spacecraft, our new spacecraft can travel at a speed of thirty-five times the speed of light. We also have a computing module that is twenty times more efficient than the current one. At level five
Among civilizations, we are invincible, and I don’t think our civilization will fail.” Luca Three said.
"I believe that every fifth-level civilization thinks this way, and every fifth-level civilization will not think that it will fail." Luca No. 2 said quietly, "Don't underestimate any fifth-level civilization. Any one has inherited countless
Civilizations that have lasted for thousands of years have profound heritage."
"This scene reminds me of an ancient legend. In the primitive era, when we were still restricted to the surface of the planet, there was a legend about raising poisonous insects in the wilderness. People would release dozens or hundreds of poisonous insects.
Together, let them kill each other, and in the end only one poisonous insect can survive. Our situation is so similar to these Gu insects. Among dozens or hundreds of fifth-level civilizations, only one fifth-level civilization can successfully reach the sixth-level civilization.
Category." Xiao Yu sighed and said, "But I don't think this fact cannot be changed."
"Oh? Master, do you have any other ways to achieve your goal?" Luca No. 2 asked.
"Rather than war and killing, I prefer to use peaceful transactions to obtain the unique technologies of other civilizations. Our existence is different from that of the Merian civilization. Our society as a whole is composed of spaceships, not planets.
Our people are more suitable to survive on a spaceship than on a planet. We have strong mobility, and we can easily carry all our supplies, wander around the universe, and communicate with other civilizations.
"Xiao Yu said, "A trading market with a fixed location can easily be attacked and lose all your money. We are different. We carry all our military power with us. I don't believe that any level five civilization can pose a threat to us."
"Wars have always served political purposes. As long as the political goals can be achieved, I don't care if the war happens. Then so be it, in the process of future contact with other civilizations. War is only used as a backup means and will fail in peaceful ways. It will only be used under certain circumstances.”
"The Milky Way is already empty enough. Even if we can become the final winner and make this Galaxy completely silent, it may not be a good thing for us. I even have a conjecture that the disappearance of the seventh-level civilization is related to What does it matter if level six civilizations are too rare..." Xiao Yu sighed and said, "But no matter what, improving one's own strength is the most important thing. Even if it is a peaceful transaction, it must be backed by its own strong strength. That's it. Well, if we continue to analyze these spacecraft of the Guardian civilization, we cannot achieve breakthroughs at the level of basic science. It would be good to gain some gains at the level of applied science and technology."
"In another three hundred years, we will be out of curvature navigation, and then I will look for an inconspicuous star system as our development base..."
After arranging all these things and setting the tone for future development, the meeting ended and the scientists became busy again.
A full three hundred years have been spent in this busy day after day. During this period, there has been great development at the level of applied science and technology. In contrast, at the level of basic science, Xiao Yu Still no progress.
It has been the same as usual in the past three hundred years. The fleet of the Guardian Civilization did not pursue it again, and the Taihao Civilization did not appear. This reality probably made Xiao Yu feel relieved.
In these three hundred years, the terrifying reproductive capabilities of intelligent creatures have been fully revealed. So far, the number of intelligent creatures under Xiao Yu's command has doubled, and now there are as many as 80 billion. It occupies ninety Home spaceships. If it continues to sail for another hundred or two hundred years, Xiao Yu's fleet will not be able to accommodate so many intelligent creatures.
However, Xiao Yu is not worried about this. The huge base of intelligent creatures represents an increasing number of scientists who can contribute to the development of Shenzhou civilization. After three hundred years of development, the number of scientists in the Central Academy of Sciences has reached There are more than 200,000, and it is still increasing rapidly.
In fact, based on the population of 80 billion, the proportion of 200,000 scientists is really small. Even in the earth age, among the 7 billion human beings, the number of scientific workers is more than this. It’s just that However, due to racial integration and frequent crises, the explosive growth in the number of scientists has been suppressed. Now that everything is safe, the growth in the number of scientists has naturally exploded.
"The next step is to build a continental-class homeship. Don't worry, the more intelligent creatures the better. I don't think there are too many..." With this mentality, when the population just exceeded 80 billion, Xiao Yu A special celebration party was also held. At the celebration party, a couple who gave birth to decuplets were specially rewarded.
In contrast to the booming growth in the number of intelligent creatures, Xiao Yu's increasingly depleted material reserves. After experiencing the war with the Molian civilization, Xiao Yu encountered the pursuit of the Guardian civilization again, and now he has experienced another five hundred years. During this long voyage, which spanned nearly a thousand years, Xiao Yu basically had no chance to stop and rest. All he was consuming now were the supplies he had previously stored.
But it doesn't matter. Now, no matter which aspect it is, it's time to stop and take a breath. As long as you find a star system, Xiao Yu will get endless supplies. The decay engine can convert any material into energy.
, and the most indispensable thing in the universe is matter.
Xiao Yu controlled a huge fleet, broke away from the curvature voyage, and floated quietly in the void. The energy burst out by the collision of the neutron star and the white dwarf was still powerful even if it spanned a distance of five hundred light years, but
It could no longer have a big enough impact on Xiao Yu's fleet. Looking at the still bright spot of light behind him, Xiao Yu took his mind back.
Here, it is about 23,000 light-years away from the center of the Milky Way. The density of stars here is not low. There are countless stars in Xiao Yu's visible field of view. The star closest to Xiao Yu is an emitting star.
It is a subgiant star with white light, but unfortunately, there are no planets around it.
So Xiao Yu eliminated this target. Xiao Yu continued to search the void, searching for each target one by one, and eliminating each target one by one.
"This star is about fifteen light years away from us. It is a young star with about 1.7 times the mass of the sun. There are two planets around it, one gaseous and one solid. Surrounding the gas giant planet
There are also dozens of satellites. In addition, it also has two debris belts. Very good, very good. This star system is very suitable for our Shenzhou civilization to settle down."
"Then let's move forward and complete another era of great development for us in this star system. This star system will become a gas station for our Shenzhou civilization. After completing the replenishment here, we will embark on a journey to explore the Milky Way.
The road to the intermediate and fifth-level civilization. What awaits us ahead may be a tragic war or a strange conspiracy. Before facing all this, let us take a good rest."
"This stay is tentatively scheduled for two hundred years. After two hundred years, we will leave here."
Under Xiao Yu's control, the huge fleet once again entered the curvature navigation. But this time Xiao Yu's speed reached about thirteen times the speed of light. At this speed, one year and two months
After time, Xiao Yu will reach the goal. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian.com to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users please go to m. to read.
