Chapter 1520 Civilization Trench

Two civilizations, four light-years apart, were born and multiplied under completely different environmental conditions. They have hugely different cultural backgrounds and even physiological structures. Their technical routes, social forms, and ways of thinking are completely different. When such two civilizations suddenly Once communication is established, things that will destroy the three views for both parties will happen one after another.

After all, even with Gawain's imagination, he never thought that there would be a civilization that launched its own gods into space at 3% of the speed of light, so the Noi people would definitely do the same after hearing about the great achievements of the Loren people. There was a similar exclamation - what did the big brother across the trough do this operation?

Of course, it was a bit beyond Gao Wen's expectation that the Nuoyi people directly sent a series of question marks out of excitement, but not long after the series of question marks, the news from four light-years away had follow-up content, and the printer rattled, The lines of letters on the paper tape came into Gao Wen's eyes: "You guys fought head-on with your own gods?! And you won?!"

After the machine was quiet for two seconds, the Nuoyi people sent another message: "Sorry, we may not have explained clearly—what we mean is that you have developed to the point where you have to break out with the gods in at least some areas , and even triggered a frontal war. As a result, you not only won, but also summed up experience in this war for future use? At the same time, when this kind of "war of gods" broke out , do you still have the confidence to complete the 'coexistence transformation' with other gods?"

Gao Wen looked at the words on the tape in surprise. He expected that what he said might surprise the other party, but he didn't expect the other party to be surprised to this extent. Would it be a scary thing for the "God War" between the Empire and the Alliance to be placed among civilizations of the same level in the universe, but these thoughts did not affect his communication with the Nuoi people, and he quickly prepared a reply Opposite text:

"There is one thing that needs to be corrected. In fact, we did not fight one war, but fought several wars at the level of gods, and encountered out-of-control crazy gods or natural disasters at the level of "divine disasters" more than once."

The Nuoyi people were silent for a longer time than the previous times combined. After a long time, Gao Wen saw the reply on the tape: "Unbelievable... this news just caused a lot of trouble among our leaders and wise men. It had a huge impact, can you tell me more details? We... never thought that there would be a civilization as incredible as yours."

There are two obvious underlines under the phrase "unbelievable", which is the mark given by the star-breaker during the translation process, which shows that this is a word that is difficult to translate and belongs to the Noi civilization. The star-breaker can only Trying to find a phrase with a similar meaning, Gao Wen's gaze stayed on the two sliding lines for a few seconds before he began to reply:

"First of all, let me declare that the Loren Alliance is not a warlike group. It is a tragedy for us to fall into war with the gods. This is not something that anyone expects to happen-if possible, we hope to embrace peace.

"Secondly,

Regarding the several god battles that took place on our planet, this is not a secret, you can tell.

"So far, we have killed or 'harmless' multiple gods and false gods. The first divine disaster in recent years broke out in the natural field, triggered by an out-of-control 'false god', we used mobile firepower pin it down and kill it;

"The second divine disaster broke out on the border of the two countries. It was triggered by the god of war out of control. We formed a position with the flesh and blood of the mortal legion and killed it with long-range artillery fire. At the same time, it was precisely because of the recovery and analysis of this The remains of the gods, we can go further in the study of the gods.

"The third divine disaster broke out in the Arctic country of our planet. It happened almost at the same time as the second divine disaster. Its cause is a problem left over from history... I won't go into details about the process. In the end, the northern country independently completed the killing, but It also paid a great price for this.

"The fourth divine disaster broke out in the hinterland of the alliance, and it is also the last one so far. The final stage of this war is extremely chaotic. The alliance is facing crazy ancient gods and artificial god-like creatures. We were once in danger , but fortunately everything ended safely in the end—the aftermath of this war is actually familiar to you. The mutual positioning and communication between the two civilizations."

Gao Wen roughly mentioned the several divine disasters that have occurred on this planet so far, but he concealed many of the details. Firstly, these details were not necessary for the early exchanges between the two civilizations. The second is that he has realized the huge cognitive difference between the two civilizations. When this difference has not been clarified, more details mean more translation costs and misunderstandings. Too much energy is put on this.

The reply from the Noi people did not keep Gao Wen waiting for too long. After a while, the printing device creaked out a new piece of paper tape with a sentence written on it: "Four divine disasters?! You have already fought with your gods. Four wars broke out? And you won them all?!"

Gao Wen thought for a while, and responded with cautious words: "We are also very sorry about this. The Loren people are actually a peace-loving race, but the ruthless laws of nature often do not take into account the peaceful wishes of ordinary people. Driven by a series of mistakes caused by lack of cognition, we and our gods are pushed to the opposite side by fate, and mortals can only choose to fight hard in order to survive."

As soon as Gao Wen sent out the news, he heard Amber's voice from the side: "The more I look at it, the more I feel that the words 'love peace' here are awkward... The matter of God's War has been sent."

Gao Wen sighed: "Don't say you feel awkward, I feel awkward—but I really love peace, don't you love peace?"

Amber had a weird expression on her face. Just as she was about to say something, a message from the Nuoyi people came over again. The two of them looked at the printing paper at the same time, and saw another question from the Nuoyi people: "One of our wise men is right?" I am very interested in some of the content you sent just now, you mentioned a 'false god' that is out of control, what is a false god? There is no similar concept on our planet."

Gawain organized his wording, and patiently explained the initial divine disaster that broke out in Cecil's territory: "This is a sad man-made disaster. At that time, we had not yet established a united and rational alliance system, and at the same time The lack of understanding of the mechanism of the operation of the gods has led to a group of dark believers trying to artificially create a god driven by extreme thoughts and blind impulses. As a result, this artificially created god cannot be controlled, and we can only kill it... This incident caused a huge loss."

After sending this news, Gao Wen hesitated for a moment, and then edited a sentence on the magic net terminal: "I must emphasize that the behavior of the dark cultists is an act that is spurned by our public order and good customs. We neither want to create artificial gods, nor I don't want to initiate war with the gods, Loren is a peace-loving civilization, our alliance is composed of several different intelligent races, and the members of the alliance have always been united by the principle of common appeal and mutual assistance."

"I think it's better for you not to post this passage," Amber watched from the side, and couldn't help but add another sentence at this time, "There is a suspicion that the description is getting darker."

Gao Wen thought for a while, sighed and deleted the edited content: "I think so too."

After a while, the FTL communication array received a signal again, the printing device clicked, and a new paper tape was slowly spit out from the printing port: "We are very shocked. Friends on the other side of the star sea, you may not understand what you have done to us How unbelievable it is - the Noi were born in the legacy left by the pioneer race, we took over the precious inheritance of knowledge a long time ago, and deciphered it before the 'god' became a natural disaster that is difficult to fight About...Using your vocabulary, we have deciphered the mystery of the 'ideology'. We have never experienced the extreme situations you have experienced, but completed the symbiosis with the gods in an extremely peaceful and safe situation.

"But even so, we still know how dangerous it is to confront the gods head-on. These terrible things are described in detail in the knowledge inheritance left by the pioneer race. They have clearly pointed out that it is extremely dangerous for mortals to fight head-on with the gods, and the more civilization If it develops to a higher stage, its danger will also double. In this case, it is a fluke for a mortal to win once, but you... won four times.

"Our wise men are discussing intensely whether it is because you have a completely different life form and thinking form from us, which leads to your innate qualities of defeating the gods, and our leaders are eager to know one thing— —Is Loren really a peace-loving civilization?"

In this kind of communication situation, directly asking whether the other party is a peace-loving force sounds a little funny. After all, if you ask someone you don’t know is a good person, then under normal circumstances, the other party must say that you are a good person. At the very least, no one said that he loved a day trip to the prison as soon as they met, but Gao Wen understood the current mentality of the Nuoyi people-after all, they couldn't do anything other than ask this question.

And considering the explosive content of the exchange just now, it is only normal for the Nuoyi people to ask such a question. If they are not disturbed at all, it will be Gao Wen's turn to worry about it - it's like you suddenly know The one living next door is a serial killer. There are a bunch of human heads stuffed in the refrigerator, hands and feet under the bed, and the basement is like a slaughterhouse. Then you visited the next door and visited it yourself, and you came back. At that time, you didn't react at all, and you could even cook three bowls of offal soup in a row. The only explanation is that the things in your basement are more powerful...

Of course, this metaphor might not be appropriate here, but Gao Wen really couldn't think of a suitable metaphor—mainly because he had to use his real brainpower to communicate with his interstellar friends.

"Of course Loren is a peace-loving civilization," he responded to the Noi people's question with an extremely serious and solemn attitude, "Now that the conditions for faster-than-light communication between the two planets have been improved, we will be happy to send a message to our friends Sharing our culture and heritage - As I said before, the Loren Alliance is a union of multiple ethnic groups and a large number of independent countries, and violence and terror are in any case impossible to maintain the stability of such a large union .

"Afterwards, we will sort out and send you a batch of materials related to history and culture. Perhaps the limited materials cannot allow the two civilizations to truly understand each other, but we still hope that the Noi people can learn from our works of art and historical books. See what kind of civilization Loren is, and understand the way we look at the world."

Speaking of this, Gao Wen stopped, and after a moment of thinking and deliberation, he typed new content into the magic guide terminal: "In addition, what we just said about the 'divine disaster' may make you feel a little Misunderstood, but we think this is the inevitable situation when two strange civilizations came into contact in the early days, and just like you were shocked by the fact that the Loren Alliance defeated the gods several times, when we learned that the Noi civilization could send its gods to We were also shocked when the spacecraft was launched light-years away."

After sending this message, Gao Wen breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know whether the other party would really have a clearer and more accurate understanding of the Loren Alliance due to these responses, but in any case, in the face of mutual Regarding the Demon Tide, Loren and Nuoyi must have a deeper understanding of the two civilizations.

In the days when the communication was cut off, the Noi people have sent a large amount of information here. These materials have given the star-explorers a preliminary understanding of the society and history of the Noi people, and in a sense , This can also be regarded as the goodwill and sincerity that the Noi people actively expressed in the communication between the two parties, so it is necessary for the Loren Alliance to respond reciprocally.

Whether it is the intelligence about several divine disasters, or the current situation that the Loren people have not been able to achieve peaceful coexistence with the gods, these can be regarded as the Loren Alliance’s sincerity response to the Noi people—and at the same time, the smooth cooperation between the two parties in the later stage Foundation.

Of course, now Gao Wen is a little worried about whether the information revealed by him has had some unexpected impact, because judging from the response of the Nuoyi people, the other party's first reaction after learning about Loren's hardships over the years It seems that they don't think that the fate here is tough and respectable. Their first reaction is that you (Loren League) are born with a war madness from top to bottom...

Fortunately, Gao Wen was careful when he revealed the news to the other side. He didn't tell the truth about the destruction of the Sentry by taking advantage of the loophole in the legacy determination mechanism of the Voyager in the final stage of the Battle of Tarash. The details of his kill (he was swallowed alive by the sea monster) told the opposite party, otherwise it would be useless for him to emphasize that "Loren people love peace"...

After waiting for a while, Gao Wen waited for the response from the Noi people, and the paper tapes that kept spitting out were the translations of the communication content translated by the astronomers:

"We have known and recognized the reality that there is a huge difference between the two civilizations, and on this basis, we will hold the greatest goodwill and strive to use this kind of goodwill as a starting point to actively understand the various messages sent to us by the Loren Alliance. Information - we want you to do the same.

"Maybe we live in a distant alien star, maybe we have experienced a completely different history, maybe we still lack understanding of each other, and this state will continue for a long time, but we must firmly believe that the other side of the star sea is a firm and reliable ally, because Among the cold stars, neither Nuoyi nor Loren can find other friends."
