There are still countless suspicions and potential risks of war between two countries on the same planet, so what about two planets separated by a vast sea of ??stars? This is a practical problem before the three imperial rulers.
The vast starry sky hides too many secrets and possibilities. Gawain hopes that other intelligent civilizations in the starry sky also have good intentions and virtues, but it is impossible to believe in this kind of thing unconditionally.
Before a civilization develops to the point where it can set foot on other planets and establish "disaster backup" on other planets, its survival in the sea of ??stars will always remain the same. Any unexpected storms and waves may cause this lone boat to collapse. The complete overturn of Something to start with.
"Before discussing whether we should respond to this signal, I want to confirm one thing first," the Silver Queen suddenly said, "Are we really capable of responding to this signal now? If it is as suspected by scholars, it is Transmitting across the star sea at an instantaneous arrival speed may have exceeded our technical limits. If we don¡¯t even have basic technology, then it would be too early for us to discuss whether we should respond"
"This is exactly what I want to say - if necessary, the alliance may really respond to this signal," Gawain tapped the table lightly, "The Kraken you should know that they are riding a huge starship. They made an emergency landing on our planet, and not long ago, they had partially repaired the starship's faster-than-light communication array."
Rosetta and Belsetia immediately glanced at each other subconsciously, their expressions changing slightly, while Gawain looked at Amorn who had been sitting next to him silently: "I want to hear your opinion - from From a 'god's' perspective, what do you think of this?"
"I'm afraid gods from different fields will have completely different ideas on this matter," Amorn shook his head slightly, "And from my perspective, I don't recommend responding to this signal."
"I thought you would be inclined to respond," Gawain glanced at the former God of Nature with some surprise, "After all, you have always tended to take proactive actions to deal with problems."
He said this tactfully, but what he actually thought of was the glorious deeds of the God of Nature standing on the Sky Station with his head rash and rescuing the Silver Queen from the front line with two rounds of charges - this elf who looked calm and reliable. In fact, the old man's reckless performance vividly demonstrated the characteristics of countless death-seeking creatures in nature. In fact, sometimes Gawain even suspected that the holy image of Amorn's "giant deer" was created by special effects, combining light, shadow and After you pick off the antlers and stuff, I'm afraid there won't be a roe deer inside
But he hesitated several times and was too embarrassed to bring it up face to face - but he considered secretly discussing it with Myrmena. Judging from the magic goddess's character of not being afraid of the elders, she would definitely find a way to verify it
Amorn did not notice the weird look on Gawain's face for a moment. He just shook his head seriously: "It is the instinct of living things to avoid danger and ensure survival. I understand the value of curiosity and exploration, and I also understand the relationship between predators and the natural world." The original crisis is everywhere. We are still too weak now, but everything about the civilization that sent the message is shrouded in mystery. Even if we analyze the other party's civilization form and intentions, it is entirely based on their active release. Once you respond to the signal coming out in this situation, it is equivalent to putting your fate in the hands of others. After all"
Having said this, he paused for a moment before continuing: "After all, it is very likely that they are still unable to confirm our existence"
The moment Amorn finished speaking, an elegant and gentle female voice suddenly appeared in this space: "No, I'm afraid the situation is not as optimistic as we imagined."
Gawain immediately looked towards the direction where the sound came from, and saw two figures appearing next to the round table accompanied by a golden light curtain and purple mist. Stepping out of the golden light curtain was a man with golden hair, as golden as a dragon. A tall lady with vertical pupils and elegant manners. The figure emerging from the mist was wearing a black dress in a classical palace style. Her lavender eyes seemed to be filled with charged arcane flames at all times - this was the figure who had just arrived. The incarnations of the goddess of magic Myrmina and the dragon god Enya at the meeting.
The voice that spoke just now came from Enya. At this moment, she quietly looked around at everyone present. Her eyes finally fell on Gawain, who held the meeting, and nodded slightly: "Sorry, we are late."
The two goddesses sat down at the round table. This situation where half of the people in the meeting were gods made Rosetta and Belsetia look a little strange. Apparently they were not used to this "Cecile style" yet. Amorn immediately looked in the direction of Enya: "What do you mean by what you just said?"Then he raised his head and glanced at everyone: "Our existence has been exposed to the alien civilization. The other party obviously knows our location. The so-called 'Unknown Civilization Alpha' refers to us, so it is okay to continue to remain silent. It makes no sense and in this case we have to respond and we have to respond as early as possible and as clearly as possible."
Enya looked into Gawain's eyes: "This is to prove to them that we also have the technology of super-light communication."
"This sounds like a bluff. We only have a set of half-destroyed communication antennas on hand," Belsetia shook her head, but could only admit helplessly, "But this seems to be the only way we can retain some initiative."
"Actually I may be a little more optimistic than you," Gawain glanced at the Silver Queen, "Now I am more and more suspicious that the civilization that sent the signal may not be as advanced as we imagined, and even their super-light communication technology There seems to be a lot of doubt in it itself.¡±
"Something suspicious?" Myrmina cast a curious look, "What do you mean?"
"The 'flash' that exposed our coordinates appeared more than half a month ago, right?" Gawain slowly said, "And according to your and Ms. Enya's judgment, the spread of this flash should be very, very Fast, maybe even as fast as superluminal communication.¡±
"Yes," Myrmena nodded, "The oscillations occur at the bottom of the world and propagate in the form of projection in the 'deep sea'. According to the unified wave model and our latest layered model of the universe, the information in the 'deep sea' The propagation speed is not bound by the laws of the material world and is theoretically infinitely fast - this is also a technical direction of super-light communication that I have conceived.
"Of course, we only have this theory now. We do not yet have the corresponding technology to actively create such information ripples that can be stably transmitted in the deep sea, nor do we have a way to retrieve and 'listen' to such fluctuations from the deep sea. What is caused by the Deep Blue Well This shock is the first 'instance' I have observed"
As the master of the realm of magic and mystery, Myrmina is always as easy to get immersed in when talking about technical issues as Rebecca, and many of the theories she inadvertently mentions make Gawain's mind spin uncontrollably. Many ideas came up.
But he quickly controlled the thoughts that were about to spread, and asked seriously: "In other words, at that moment more than half a month ago, the 'flicker' of our planet had spread to hundreds of people. Even thousands of light-years away, it happens instantly and arrives instantly - yet the 'sending civilization' did not change their signal pattern until two or three days ago. Why is this?"
Amorn looked at Gawain, then at Myrmina, and spoke uncertainly: "They have been discussing for half a month to decide how to write the first letter? Well, this is unlikely"
"Yes, of course this is impossible. They have been sending letters for so long. If they really found other intelligent groups, they should have prepared various 'communication documents'," Gawain nodded and said, "They It took half a month to switch the signal mode, which only shows that it takes them so long to complete the adjustment of the equipment. But let us not forget that this civilization has been broadcasting this signal as early as the Gondor Empire. Yes, their 'super-light speed communication technology' has been used for hundreds or even thousands of years"
He stopped, folded his hands on his chin, and continued slowly in deep thought: "A civilization that has used super-light communication to broadcast in the universe for a thousand years, now it takes half a month to change the signal mode. There may be only one explanation for such a suspicious situation"
The Silver Queen on the side reacted immediately: "This technology is not theirs!"
"The technology is not theirs, and the equipment may not be theirs. They may need to pay a huge price or use very cumbersome methods to indirectly control this thing, or even" Enya thought thoughtfully, "They may even just borrow it. A certain Voyager legacy If this is the case, then it is understandable that they have not been able to crack the 'core secrets' of the sending equipment for a thousand years, because Voyager equipment often has very strict core protection."
Gawain spread his hands: "Just imagine, if they are really a civilization with normal technical lines, and they have mastered the secret of super-light communication a thousand years ago, how high will they develop now? They should have already Having broken through the demonic tide and solved the black trap, they don't need to wait for our response at all. The day after our planet is 'lit up', their jump ship may have already arrived over the Loren continent.
"But the fact is, this didn't happen."
