Chapter 458 The Law of the Dark Forest!
"The most basic conspiracy! It doesn't matter any conspiracy at all, just crush it."
"The shock level of this battle is no worse than any interstellar war."
"I want to see what the confident person in this book looks like now..."
…
"Da Shi, I hold the key to human victory!"
When this sentence from Luo Ji was presented to all readers, thousands of readers became 120% alert.
From the very beginning of the design of the Wall-Facing Plan, it was destined that this plan would have a decisive impact on mankind's plans!
But now, the wall-facing plan has been abolished, and even Shi Qiang, who has also "hibernated" until 200 years later, has no good solution.
As the water droplets approach the Earth, public sensitivity to escapism reaches its peak!
After all, the enemy is currently facing us. If we face it together and die together, there may not be so much pressure. But once we know that there is a way to escape from the earth, the public's emotions will reach its peak.
On the land of Kyushu, riots are happening everywhere!
This is doomed.
Is there no one left to save humanity? !
At this moment, the third wall-facer, Hines, brought the latest instructions from Kyushu:
"Dr. Luo Ji, I have just been appointed as the liaison between the Kyushu Wall-Facing Planning Committee and you."
"I am now ordered to inform you that the Wall Facer Project has been resumed, and you have been designated as the only Wall Facer!"
…
"oh?"
"what's the situation?"
"Why was Luo Ji suddenly recognized?"
"Could it be..."
"That spell?"
"A spell from two hundred years ago?"
Readers are not stupid. Although Luo Ji has the aura of a protagonist, it is impossible for him to regain the trust of the Kyushu Wall-Facing Planning Committee out of thin air. Something must have happened.
And the fact is just as everyone suspected.
Two hundred years ago, the spell Luo Ji fired towards the star 187J3X1 took effect!
Fifty-one years ago, the star 187J3X1 was destroyed! Observed a year ago!
Because all of Kyushu ignored the wall-facing plan, people no longer paid attention to that star until the human space fleet was completely destroyed.
In desperation, he thought of Luo Ji, the only mysterious Eastern wall-breaker who had not exposed his plans.
You know, this was supposed to be the only hope for the human world, and the star 187J3X1 got destroyed according to the "spell"!
Luo Ji regained his identity as a Wallfacer and once again gained the right to mobilize the resources of the entire earth!
"what is going on?"
…
Not only Shi Qiang has such doubts, but readers all over the world also have such doubts.
They didn't know why Luo Ji just fired a spell and the star 187J3X1 was destroyed.
[Big History, you can restore the entire case from a bullet or a drop of blood. The sociology of the universe is to describe the entire galaxy civilization and universe civilization from these two axioms. 】
Luo Ji explained to Shi Qiang.
To put it simply, the universe looks empty, with only the Earth and the Trisolaran civilization. But even if there are only these two civilizations, what will they look like when they meet?
Is it good or evil?
Two important concepts are introduced here.
The first important concept is the chain of suspicion. The chain of suspicion means that both parties cannot judge whether the other party is a well-intentioned and civilized person.
The second most important concept is technological explosion. The speed and acceleration of civilizational progress are not necessarily consistent.
Evolving along these two important concepts, it is simply two civilizations in a chain of suspicion. In the blink of an eye over hundreds of years, you have no idea that the other party's technological level will suddenly surpass yours!
Following the first axiom, survival is the first need of civilization. No matter what, no civilization can put itself in a dangerous situation and be slaughtered by others.
At this moment, Luo Ji finally fully described the true concept of the "Dark Forest" under the gaze of thousands of pairs of eyes!
"The universe is a dark forest, and every civilization is a hunter with a gun, stalking the forest like a ghost."
"Gently push aside the branches blocking the road, trying hard not to make a sound with his footsteps, even breathing carefully. He must be careful, because there are hunters like him stalking everywhere in the forest."
No matter whether the hunter is a threat or not, whether he is a strong man, an old man, or a baby.
As long as they meet, the other party will be an eternal threat to themselves, a threat to expose their existence!
In the face of this threat, there is only one answer, and that is...
Shoot and destroy!
This is the picture of cosmic civilization, and it is also the explanation of the Fermi Paradox! !
…
Shocking!
Indescribable shock!
God knows how big Mike's eyes are now!
The "Fermi Paradox" has considerable influence in the astronomical community because it is based on scientifically discovered facts.
The ancient Milky Way is about 10 billion years old, but the diameter of space is only about 100,000 light-years. In other words, even if aliens soar into space at only one thousandth of the speed of light, it will only take about 100 million years. Time can travel across the galaxy.
This time is much shorter than the age of the Milky Way.
And based solely on mathematical probability analysis, in the vast universe, there should be many stars similar to the earth that are suitable for the existence of life, but humans have not seen aliens.
The Fermi Paradox has always been an eternal topic.
But now, the Fermi Paradox has been answered by an old thief because of the Dark Forest Law!
Of course, this is in a novel, but the novel has its own set of settings and a self-consistent logic. This is a difficult thing to do!
Mike could imagine that after today, the reliability of the Dark Forest Law will definitely be discussed in various fields across Kyushu. This is the power of "Three-Body"!
In fact, whether it is the history of Kyushu or the various histories of past lives, the principle of the "Law of the Dark Forest" can be found.
Wasn't that what the arms race was like back then?
No force or civilization will expose itself to threats!
…
"Holy shit!"
"It's so shocking! Luo Ji's Dark Forest Law...seems to make sense!"
"The law of the dark forest is an imagination based on civilization's awareness of self-protection. In "The Three-Body Problem", this imagination should be realized."
"I suddenly understand what Luo Ji is going to do!"
"Can't you understand now that you see it?"
"While reading "The Three-Body Problem", my scalp went numb for the 11th time!"
"In other words, Luo Ji launched the coordinates of the 187J3X1 star into the universe, thus destroying the 187J3X1 star?"
The emergence of the Dark Forest Law is undoubtedly the heaviest blow in "The Three-Body Problem"!
This is the core of the theory in the entire "Three Body".
Of course, it is only in the world of novels. If some readers substitute the laws of the dark forest into the real world, it can only be said that the science fiction work "The Three-Body Problem" is really successful.
Luo Ji's "spell" two hundred years ago means exactly what readers guessed.
No matter how many hunters there are in the universe, after the spell is issued, even if these civilizations are not sure whether the star 187J3X1 is a civilization, all civilizations will make the same choice:
Try firing a shot at that location!
Ever since, the result of this destruction confirmed Luo Ji's guess.
…
"Can Luo Ji directly expose the location of the Trisolaran civilization and cause the Trisolaran civilization to die suddenly?"
"That's right! Since it can directly destroy the star 187J3X1, it should also be able to kill the Trisolaran civilization suddenly!"
"no……"
The readers' ideas are roughly the same, but just like the creative style of "The Three-Body Problem", many doubts will be answered in the next paragraph!
Because the relative distance between the solar system and Trisolaris and the general direction in the Milky Way have been announced, exposing the location of Trisolaris is almost equivalent to exposing the location of the solar system. This is also a strategy of perish together!
Before that, Luo Ji still needed to prepare!
Shi Qiang should be the only person in the world who currently knows Luo Ji's general purpose and the complete laws of the dark forest. He is keeping Luo Ji's secret for the time being.
The wall-facer is destined to face a lonely duel.
The plot that follows makes readers even more disappointed with the human world in the novel!
Although Luo Ji was reinstated as a Wallfacer, more and more astrophysicists believe that the explosion of star 187J3X1 was just an accident. As an astronomer, Luo Ji probably discovered the explosion of the star 200 years ago. certain signs, and then use this Eastern deception called "spell" to obtain benefits.
Luo Ji invested in the snow project, trying to establish a mechanism that could provide early warning for the Trisolaran probe and fleet to arrive in the solar system.
But as time went by, people all over Kyushu became completely disappointed with Luo Ji who was unable to come up with a salvation plan!
The savior who was so prosperous for a while seems to have become the biggest liar on the earth again!
