Bureau of Civilization and Biological Investigation, inside the office of the Andromeda Investigation Team.

A sudden news made the team leader Huang Feiteng hurriedly gather a group of team members, as the closest river system to the Milky Way, the situation of the Andromeda Galaxy has always been the focus of attention.

The strength of their Andromeda investigation team is also quite extraordinary, not only has a special investigation center set up inside Andromeda, but also has 50 automatic reconnaissance ships.

Under the emergency order, more than a dozen team members had to give up the Spring Festival vacation and quickly return to work.

A young man with a ponytail changed clothes and asked, "Head, what's wrong?"

Huang Feiteng didn't speak, but shared an investigation brief with everyone in the office, and then helplessly explained:

"A thorny civilization that doesn't know the height of the sky and the height of the earth has done something on the cantilever of the jade chapter of Andromeda."

The maverick ponytail young man flipped through the papers, only to find that this thorny civilization had done a big thing.

The name of the civilization in the official database of the new humans is "Atandi Civilization", which is a transliteration meaning mechanical glory.

This is a civilization developed by silicon-based organisms, this civilization is located at the junction of the cantilever region and the core area of the constellation Andromeda, and the density of the star system is 5~7 times higher than that of the solar system.

Perhaps due to the characteristics of silicon-based creatures, they are very easy to develop into a junior civilization, and have spaceships that can speed up to about 28% of the speed of light.

If it is in a star field like the solar system, the Atandi civilization is estimated to be very uncomfortable, after all, the distance between the star systems around the solar system starts at a few light years.

But around the home galaxy of the Atandi civilization, other star systems are very close to the Atandi system, and the distance between them is usually between 0.5~3 light years.

This spacing between galaxies, combined with the fact that silicon-based organisms are more adapted to the survival of the universe, gives them the conditions for crazy expansion.

Since the Atandi civilization was promoted to a primary civilization, in less than 377 blue star years, they have managed to occupy the surrounding 53 star systems.

And this time, the reason why the Atandi civilization attracted attention was mainly because the other party broke out a cosmic war with another primary civilization, and the Atandi civilization directly destroyed the other party's only three star systems.

With this kind of aggressive nature and great potential, the new humans do not want this unstable factor to continue to exist in the Andromeda Galaxy.

Huang Feiteng saw that the team members were in place, and immediately ordered: "Now start assessing the threat level of the Atandi civilization." ”

"Okay."

"No problem."

The team members retrieved all the information of the Atandi civilization and conducted a comprehensive evaluation and analysis.

Silicon-based civilizations will develop very quickly in the primary civilization stage, such as the Winged Human Civilization that was previously destroyed by new humans, because there are half of the silicon-based gene sequences, so that they can develop faster than ordinary carbon-based civilizations.

Of course, silicon-based civilization is not without shortcomings, otherwise the universe would have been dominated by silicon-based creatures long ago, and in fact, silicon-based civilization may have a lot more difficulty than carbon-based civilization in advancing to intermediate civilization.

The reason for this reasoning is that the silicon-based gene sequences are highly stable, not to mention the vast Atandi civilization that swept dozens of star systems, in fact, their real population is less than 10 billion.

Silicon-based organisms have a long lifespan, usually starting from thousands of years, such as the magnetic field tree of the Wingman civilization, with an average lifespan of several million years.

On the one hand, it is good that they can survive for so long, but it is very difficult for them to reproduce, and even more troublesome is that their offspring will evolve very slowly due to the high stability of the genetic sequence.

It may be that tens of millions of years of mutation and evolution are not as good as the evolution of carbon-based organisms for thousands of years.

In addition, it is important to note that the population mentioned here does not refer to the industrially produced cannon fodder of combat robots, but silicon-based people with independent personalities and intelligence.

Not only has this led to the underpopulation of silicon-based civilizations, but it has also led to an even more intractable problem, the rapid growth of the race's intelligence.

In other words, the initial development of silicon-based civilization will be very fast, and the middle and late stages will be very prone to encounter the development ceiling.

This ceiling may be stuck in these silicon-based civilizations, and the Atandi civilization has this obvious trend, their technology has reached the high level of primary civilization in just a few hundred years, but in recent decades, it has been standing still.

For a civilization, if this situation is not handled properly, and it is not eliminated by other civilizations, they will die themselves.

Especially in the universe, the Reaper civilization is high above and looks down on the sea of stars; Intermediate civilizations are secretly dormant, ready to be promoted at any time.

In various river systems, the legend that the advanced civilization and the intermediate civilization are almost the head and end of the dragon, and some primary civilizations have long been stagnant in science and technology, so it is easy to have an illusion.

That is to feel the technological level of one's own civilization, which is the apex of science and technology in the entire universe, and there is a feeling of being alone and seeking defeat.

It's just that this delusion is often fatal, and once it provokes an intermediate or advanced civilization, the primary civilization can't even resist.

Moreover, blind arrogance will not only lead to the stagnation of the development of civilization, but also more likely to corrode the enterprising spirit of development, and may even lead to the regression of civilization.

The social entropy effect tells us that when the pond reaches its limit, it can either go backwards or break the dam, and there is nothing else to do.

……

As the data of the Atandi civilization is focused on, the fate of this civilization is in the hands of Huang Feiteng and others at this time.

This is the suppression of the civilization level, and one word can determine the rise and fall of a primary civilization, just like when the winged human civilization touches the forbidden power of the "artificial black hole", the new human race does not hesitate to choose to destroy the other party.

If Huang Feiteng and the others judged that the Atandi civilization was a threat and needed to be eradicated, the war committee would definitely not hesitate to take action.

Huang Feiteng put down the document and asked, "How is everyone's research?"

The young man with a ponytail was the first to stand up and express his opinion: "This civilization has developed to the end, it is difficult to advance without accidents, and there are signs of division within them. ”

"What about other people's opinions?" Huang Feiteng continued to ask.

"Judging from their Large Particle Collider experiments, the laser energy level of the Atandi civilization is stuck near 577TeV, which is far from the artificial black hole, and the possibility of suddenly advancing to the intermediate level is less than 1 in 10 million."

"In terms of materials science, they have unique features, and we can learn from silicon-based energy metal materials."

"The overall threat level is about 2.6!"

Huang Feiteng listened while recording everyone's opinions, the threat level of the Atandi civilization was indeed only about 2.6, that is, in the middle of the low-level level.

The development potential is only 3.8, that is, at most to the peak stage of the primary civilization.

When the two evaluation parameters are combined, there is no need for destruction.

You must know that the threat level of the Wingman civilization at that time was as high as 3.7, and the development potential reached about 5.6, once the evaluation parameters entered 4, it was a sign of intermediate civilization.

Huang Feiteng read everyone's opinions, and finally concluded:

"Everyone has similar assessments, and in this case, the treatment of the Atandi civilization has been determined as a key observation, and eradication will not be carried out for the time being."

"Agreed."

"So be it!"

The Atandi civilization in Andromeda did not know that it had just experienced an existential twist of fate.
