Chapter 342 The Crisis of Garmiki Civilization
Just imagine, if this civilization knew that there was a law of the dark forest, but did not show it, but secretly sent the coordinates before they came, then this would be dangerous.
Afterwards, it is very likely that their people were hit by a super weapon while living here.
Therefore, we must be cautious about this matter. During this period, they successfully obtained the time and frequency of the Blue Star's signal transmission into the universe through various means.
And after confirming that the signals they sent before did not bring any subsequent harm, they were finally able to relax.
Immediately afterwards, they launched a large number of special detectors here. In addition to monitoring the planet, these detectors also intercepted signals that they might send to the depths of the universe.
In fact, for them, the most dangerous thing now is not the information they send out with their own technological means, because they can intercept this information.
For them, the biggest worry is that if this civilization can't think about it and they send a message to their own star, then the problem will be huge.
Because stars can play a role in amplifying signals, signals with special wave frequencies will be transmitted to distant deep spaces under the amplification of stars, and this signal can be easily captured by other civilizations.
And they don't have the ability to intercept this kind of signal, which means that the only way for the entire Blue Star to survive now is to emit special frequency signals at the star.
These detectors exist here to monitor this incident. If such an incident occurs, they will prevent it before the tragedy occurs.
Whether it is withdrawing troops or negotiating, they will try their best to prevent Blue Star from transmitting signals. By that time, the deterrence between the two civilizations will be established.
Fortunately, they later discovered that their worries were unnecessary, because Blue Star adopted the stupidest method to resist them, which was to build battleships to confront them head-on.
Seeing this, the entire Gamiki civilization can finally relax.
And just when the Garmiki civilization was still dreaming about the grand blueprint for the future after incorporating Blue Star, they received a message from an unknown civilization.
This piece of information puzzled them.
To be precise, I shouldn't be confused, but rather surprised.
This message is not so much a reminder from the other party as it is a reply from the other party.
"We are bugs."
That's what the message said.
When they received this message, they almost thought it was from Blue Star.
Because they once sent a similar message to Blue Star, and the content of this message was that you are bugs.
Rather than telling this piece of information, I wanted to reply, which made the entire Mickey civilization stupid.
What is going on?
Did the other party do it intentionally or was it a coincidence? Mickey civilization is not clear about this.
Although they don't know what is going on, they are sure that this civilization cannot be Blue Star.
Because this civilization uses a communication method that they cannot understand. Based on this alone, they can conclude that this civilization's communication technology is much higher than theirs, and it is estimated that it is much better than them in other aspects.
Obviously, this is not good news for them.
A civilization much more powerful than them discovered them and sent them a communication, and the content of this communication was obviously telling them that it had intercepted every message they had ever sent.
Based on this alone, they understood that not only they but also the Blue Star at their target point had been exposed to the eyes of this civilization.
This news is definitely not good news for them. At this time, the entire Mickey civilization is also in panic because of this incident.
Unlike Blue Star, their first reaction after learning the news was to flee.
The reason why they want to escape is simple, because in their eyes, a civilization of this level is definitely not something they can defeat.
They are not fools like Blue Star. They are not naive enough to think that they can defeat the enemy by knowing how long it will take them to manufacture weapons in advance.
They knew very well that people of this level were simply not something they could defeat. Now their only way out was to escape. After finding Blue Star, they began to build immigration ships to prepare for future invasions.
So now the entire civilization has nearly twenty immigration ships that can carry nearly 200 million people to escape.
However, due to the limitations of their technological level, their immigration ship's maximum speed can only reach one-tenth of the speed of light, and at its limit, it can only sail in this universe for about six hundred years.
Although they can easily solve the energy problem with the ore, there has been no breakthrough in material technology.
It is also for this reason that without maintenance in the universe, six hundred years is the limit for their warships to be able to sail stably. If they want to continue sailing, they are resigned to their fate.
Because they don't know what problems will occur with the warship after this time limit, and when it will be damaged.
If calculated according to the normal service life, it would take them 10 years to travel a distance of one light-year. In six hundred years, the immigration ships would only be able to travel a distance of about sixty light-years. This distance is already very far for them, but what about that advanced civilization?
And they also need to consider finding a habitable planet within 60 light-years, which is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
To put it simply, once they escape, the future of civilization will become unknown. Whether it can continue is purely a matter of luck. If they do not escape, the possibility of direct destruction is waiting for them.
Of course, apart from these two paths, there are no other paths they can take.
And this path is to establish mutual deterrence between the two civilizations.
To establish a deterrent between two civilizations, there must be several necessary prerequisites. First, the stronger civilization must have its concerns, and this concern happened to be discovered by itself.
This is very important, because if the other party has no scruples, then deterrence will not be established.
Just like they and Blue Star, they think that Blue Star can establish a deterrent mainly because they need this planet and they don't want this planet to be destroyed.
So when Blue Star used this planet as a threat, the deterrent was established.
Of course, this kind of deterrence is not limited to the planet itself, it may also be the internal resources of the planet, or other things. In short, this thing is the reason for the enemy to attack you.
You just need to hold this reason in your hand to negotiate with the other party.
If their conscience becomes gray, they will definitely come out to negotiate with life and find ways to resolve this matter as peacefully as possible, although of course this is only on the surface.
They will definitely be secretly planning some way to eliminate Blue Star's intimidation.
Although this deterrent is short-lived, it also gives the two civilizations time to breathe, and this breathing time holds unlimited possibilities.
Of course, if you want to establish deterrence, besides this point, there are many other key points. One of the more important ones is that the opponent's technology level is not very different from yours.
If the technological gap between the two sides reaches an incomprehensible level, deterrence will naturally not be established.
Because for you, you can deter the enemy in this way, but the enemy has countless ways to make your deterrence impossible.
And you simply cannot understand the principles of these methods, and naturally there is no way to deal with them.
Of course, nothing is absolute. Even in the face of such a powerful civilization, there is still a deterrent plan, and that is to find the enemy's hometown.
Then send the battleship to escape into the depths of the universe in advance, and set the communication frequency between the battleship and the home planet. Once the battleship finds that communication is disconnected, it will directly announce the coordinates of that civilization to the entire universe.
In this case, it is basically a method of perishing together, and the feasibility of this method is very high, because a single battleship is difficult to be found in the universe.
As for why this method is a way to die together, it is also very simple, because when you expose the coordinates of that advanced civilization, it will also eliminate you.
Even if he doesn't eliminate you, the communication between you and him may still be known by the cleanup civilization, and then this cleanup civilization will follow the clues to find you.
At this time, the Gamiji civilization was discussing this matter.
That's right, they want to find the home planet of this civilization, and then use it as a threat to establish a deterrent for both civilizations.
As for the escape plan, they are also proceeding step by step.
Because of this incident, they left themselves two paths. The first path was to escape, and the second path was to establish civilized deterrence on both sides.
After all, it is always better to be prepared.
But at this time they didn't know that everything they did was in vain.
But this time on the other side.
This is a strange space. The entire space is black, but it is not accurate to say that. To be precise, it should be that except for the huge rectangular table in the center, which has bright light, other places are covered by endless drowned in darkness.
Obviously, the creator of this space is deliberately guiding people in the dark space to that area.
Everyone in the dark space also felt very confused about this.
They didn't know how they got here. In short, they appeared in this space inexplicably.
Among the people who entered this space, some people had just finished the meeting and were heading to the next meeting place, while some people had just finished a day's work and washed up and were lying in bed.
