"Fire a spell? What do you mean?"
"Draw a circle and curse you?"
"Look carefully!"
"Holy shit?"
"A spell for whom?"
……
The incantation Luo Ji spoke of was three graphics, each of which was just some black dots that seemed to be randomly distributed.
In each picture, a black dot is drawn larger and more prominently, and a small arrow marks it.
The target of this spell is the planet owned by the star 187J3X1 outside the solar system.
"What do you mean?"
"Luo Ji is not a wizard, is he? A mysterious wizard from the East?"
"Damn it, this old thief can't really write fantasy, can he?"
"How is it possible? Do you think the old thief is a fool or do you think we are fools... The old thief must have a reason for writing this, and Luo Ji was inspired by Ye Wenjie."
Of course, no one would think that the old thief would write "fantasy", but in the novel, Luo Ji's behavior was considered a wizard in the eyes of state representatives!
Luo Ji used solar gain reflection to send a "spell" to the star 187J3X1 outside the solar system, "cursing" (predicting) the star's destruction.
Later, Luo Ji was assassinated by ETO - a genetic missile attack, and when he was seriously ill and dying, he hibernated and went to the future to wait for treatment.
Before hibernating, Luo Ji said this:
"Hibernate, wake me up when the spell is observed acting on the 187J3X1 galaxy."
……
Luo Ji was experimenting.
To confirm Luo Ji's strategic vision!
Although this strategic idea has not been fully exposed, the suspense has caused thousands of readers to scratch their heads and wish they could know the whole story of Luo Ji's strategic ideas in just a few minutes.
It was after this plan was implemented that the Trisolaran civilization was alarmed again!
For the second time, an order was issued to ETO to eliminate Luo Ji!
"Is Luo Ji's plan so awesome?"
"I have no idea what Luo Ji wants to do..."
"Three-body civilization must know, otherwise it wouldn't be so panicked."
Just four years after Luo Ji's "hibernation", the Trisolaran fleet passed through the second interstellar dust cloud, and humans observed accelerating water droplets!
This will most likely be early contact with entities from the Trisolaran world.
Although it is only ten small detectors.
As one of the main characters, Zhang Beihai also entered hibernation to reinforce the future.
……
"Holy shit, it feels like the epic scroll is gradually opening up..."
"Space elevator, ball lightning, the old thief has some very creative science fiction ideas in his mind! Just taking these ideas alone would be enough to write a short science fiction novel."
"Luo Ji won't just sleep until a few hundred years later and fight to the death with the Trisolaran civilization!"
"It turns out that this is what Ray Diaz's plan to face the wall means."
"Holy crap, deterrence?"
"The first wall-facer is strength, the second is deterrence..."
Ray Diaz, the second Wallfacer, planned to ostensibly establish a defense base in the inner solar system on Mercury. In fact, he hoped to detonate a large number of hydrogen bombs on Mercury, causing it to slow down and fall towards the sun, triggering a chain reaction.
Let the environment of the entire solar system deteriorate into a hell more terrifying than the Trisolaran world, in order to threaten the Trisolarans!
His plan can be regarded as the first generation of deterrence thinking.
It is just limited to the technical level and depth of thinking, and only the members of the Trisolaran fleet are used as the other side of deterrence, rather than the entire Trisolaran civilization.
Although the core idea of the plan is good, threatening the other party with the determination to die together, the way to implement the plan is crude and unachievable, and humans simply cannot afford to gamble.
……
And the third wallfacer, Bill Hines.
His plan to face the wall is to use [Ideological Stamp] to imbue the Space Force with the belief that "humanity will win."
What is [Ideological Stamp]?
To put it simply, in the neuron network of the human brain, there is a mechanism for thinking and making judgments.
When a certain piece of information enters the brain, by exerting an influence on a certain part of the neuron network, the brain can make a judgment without thinking and believe that the information is true. This is the principle of the thought stamp.
Seeing this [Ideological Stamp], even the most oblivious readers will know that this is definitely not Hines' real plan.
Because the Wall Facer plan is to deceive the Trisolaran civilization, under this appearance, the true intention of the Wall Facer must be hidden!
And Hines' real intention is... to escape!
On the surface, Hines used an "ideological stamp" to give the Space Force the belief that "humanity must win." In fact, he secretly changed the belief to "humanity must lose."
To be more specific, it is "Humanity will lose, hide yourself, and choose the opportunity to escape from the earth!!"
This plan seems "cowardly".
In fact, this plan is great from every angle...
Thirty-six strategies, walking is the best strategy!
Hines deeply realized the fact that after earth science was locked up by the Trisolarans, mankind would be defeated, and formulated the ideological stamp plan.
Why is this plan great? Because the plan design is extremely exquisite!
Because the thought stamp is imprinted on people's minds, even a sophon can hardly detect it.
From this perspective, Hines's wall-facing plan was perfect to the extreme.
As a true wall-facer, this wall-facing plan proved to be equally successful in subsequent events!
Because escaping humans are always a threat to the Trisolarans!
……
The plan of these three wall breakers.
Number one is strength.
The second one is deterrence.
The third one is escape.
It can be said that all the methods that humans can currently think of have been used to the extreme.
Let’s not talk about the [Thought Stamp Project] that has not yet been fully revealed. Let’s talk about the first two. They are not realistic at all. Facing the power of the earth, the Trisolaran civilization is not afraid at all.
Therefore, the Lord does not care!
As for the so-called deterrence plan, even after exhausting the earth's industrial resources, it still cannot produce one-tenth of the nuclear bombs required for the plan.
Moreover, let’s not say whether the Trisolaran civilization will accept the threat, but simply that humans themselves cannot accept it.
This is the same as a general holding a knife to his neck and shouting:
"Come here and I will die with you!"
"I can't live on the earth, and you won't have it easy either!"
Apparently, the Lord doesn't care either.
……
The content of the book "Three-Body 2" is over half.
Readers all over Kyushu were quite quiet, constantly flipping through books.
In the blink of an eye, we have arrived at the 205th year of the crisis year!
This was nearly two hundred years after Luo Ji hibernated.
The Trisolaran Fleet is only 2.10 light years away from the solar system! !
In these two hundred years, many, many stories have happened.
There are some stories that readers can expect, and there are some stories that readers can't expect.
In the 28th year of the Crisis Era, that is, AD 2034, the Great Depression began.
What is the Great Trough Period? Human beings' fear of the Trisolarans caused people to panic and give up on themselves. The safety of social organizations was seriously damaged. Therefore, no one maintained social order, leading to the occurrence of starvation in human society.
Crime and violence occur frequently, plagues are rampant, the number of humans decreases sharply, and human society is on the verge of collapse!
In the 80th year of the Crisis Era, AD 2086, the Great Depression officially ended, and the population of Kyushu plummeted from 8.3 billion to 3.5 billion!
Thanks to the efforts of many parties, the order of human society has been restored, the Renaissance has reappeared, a large number of technologies have been successfully developed, especially nuclear fusion that can be used for interstellar navigation, and the space fleet has been rebuilt!
In the 105th year of the Crisis Era, ETO was wiped out!
……
At this moment, all readers are the same as Luo Ji in the novel. They are not witnesses of history, but listeners of history!
Readers, just like Luo Ji, are listening to the stories of the past and the new era 200 years later.
Just like those time travel science fiction novels, this special perception of modern people coming to the future is really unknown and attractive.
Among the readers, how many readers don’t want to look at the past or the future?
200 years later, cities across Kyushu are developing underground.
This is a new world.
In this new world, in addition to the states, the three major fleets have become independent political and economic entities.
They are Mizhou Fleet, Xizhou Fleet, and Xiazhou Fleet.
After Luo Ji woke up, the first meeting he attended was to criticize the "Facing the Wall Project"!
["Historical facts prove that the Wall-Facing Plan is a completely failed strategic plan."]
[It is no exaggeration to say that it is the most childish and stupid move ever made by human society as a whole. ”]
……
These are the exact words from the meeting.
Of the four former wall-facers, the first two were dead, leaving only Luo Ji and Xiens who had awakened from hibernation.
In this atmosphere, the middle part of the book - "The Spell" officially ends!
The story comes to its final chapter...
Dark forest!
...(End of this chapter)
