Chapter 693: The Wandering Earth's Choice
The two-dimensional transformation of the three-dimensional galaxy is gradually coming to an end, and the second and third stars have also sunk into the two-dimensional plane.
At this point, the entire three-body galaxy has become a huge painting with zero thickness, a picture that is frozen forever.
Two-dimensional stars are fading. The luminosity of the core area decreases dramatically, and soon it is so dark that more of the ring structure can be seen.
The radiation zone is also darkening, and the boiling has subsided, turning into a sticky creep. The convective rings in the convective region are all deformed and collapsed, and soon disappear completely.
The golden gas dancers on the outer periphery of the star dimmed like withered leaves, losing their vitality.
At this time, it can be seen that at least the gravitational force still exists in the two-dimensional world, and those sunbait flying in space lose the support of radiation and are slowly pulled back by the gravitational pull of the star.
Everything in the three-dimensional world will die when it falls into the second dimension, and nothing can live in a painting with zero thickness.
Perhaps the two-dimensional universe has its own stars, planets, and life, but it is certainly structured and operated by a completely different mechanism.
Everyone in the wheelhouse of Earth was speechless and fell silent in shock.
This is the first time that human beings have seen the means of super-civilization in the universe, and it is no longer something within the scope of a common cognition.
Destroying a galaxy may also be possible with the Wandering Earth, where the Earth cannon is fired directly at the star, which can also have an effect similar to that of light particles.
But reducing the dimension of an entire galaxy to two dimensions is really unimaginable.
If the light particle strike is still within the scope of understanding, the dimensionality reduction strike has allowed human beings to experience it well, what is the fear of the unknown universe.
Now humanity no longer needs to worry about the solar system being hit by the dark forest, because the continuous fall of the universe into two dimensions is more urgent than that kind of thing.
If there are no accidents, the solar system will also fall into the second dimension with the three-body galaxy in four years, and there is no need for another Dark Forest strike.
"What a goddamn place to be!" The representative of the United States, Derek, scolded:
"We can't stay on this plane any longer, let's get ready to escape! Even if you can't travel to the next plane, at least leave the solar system! ”
Indeed, the Wandering Earth still has a chance to escape, and the Zhizi Project has been successfully completed, and he can study how to travel to the next plane and completely stay away from this dangerous land of right and wrong.
Luo Feng asked, "What about the human civilization and the three-body civilization that stayed here?" Abandon them like that? ”
"What we want is the technology of the three-body civilization, and now that all the technology has been obtained, the life or death of the three-body people has nothing to do with us." The representative of the United States, Derek, said unabashedly.
"As for the human civilization in this world, we can't protect ourselves now, where can we take care of them."
It may sound a little ruthless, but from the point of view of reason, it is not unreasonable.
The human civilization of this world has completely lost time to escape, and in just four years, even 10,000 dungeons cannot be completed, let alone follow the example of the wandering earth to build a planetary engine to escape from the solar system.
Not to mention, the escape speed of the universe falling into the second dimension is the speed of light, even if it can escape from the solar system, if there is no way to maintain the speed of light all the time, sooner or later it will be caught up by the dimensionality reduction strike and become part of the two-dimensional plane.
If there is any way, it is to migrate the entire human civilization and the three-body civilization to the wandering earth. Then, after crossing over to the next plane, find a way to place them in various places in the other planes.
The three-body civilization is very easy to deal with, and the dehydrated and dormant three-body people are just a shriveled skin, taking up space about the same as a piece of clothing, and it is no problem to stuff them all into a dungeon.
That is, there are billions of people in the human civilization in this world, and the population is more than twice as many as the original 3 billion people who wandered the earth.
With such a huge population, it is definitely impossible to enter the dungeon, otherwise the Wandering Earth would not have had to draw lots.
But they can't be left on the ground, and in the process of crossing the wandering earth, everyone has to take refuge in the dungeon.
Because whether it's a continuous acceleration to break through the speed of light, or a month-long hyperspace voyage, dungeons are relatively safe places.
If billions of people were left on the ground and forcibly crossed, the consequences would be unimaginable. It is inevitable that many accidents will occur, and I am afraid that it will also threaten the safety of the wandering earth itself.
"Give them up, there's nothing we can do anymore." Derek said decisively.
George echoed: "We can provide faster-than-light spacecraft technology to help them with interstellar escape, and maybe some people will survive." ”
"Part of it? Can you be specific? Russian representative Vasily asked.
"In four years, ideally, it may be 1 in 10,000, and more families will have to be prepared to lose their loved ones." George replied.
Vasily sneered: "I tell you, there is no such ideal situation! The reason why the Wandering Earth Project is implemented with the strength of all mankind is because it can allow most people to survive, at least to ensure that every family has the right to live. Now that there is only one in 10,000 chance of survival, how are you going to convince the remaining 9,999 people to do their best for this one person's escape? ”
George retorted, "Even if it's only one in ten million, it's worth it!" ”
The scene seems to have returned to the beginning of the Wandering Earth Project, the debate between the spaceship faction and the Earth faction, but this time it is the fate of another human civilization that is decided, and the time is far less abundant than it was at the beginning.
"Enough!"
Luo Feng interrupted the argument and emphasized: "We are talking about billions of human lives, not just a number! If it weren't for the survival of as many people as possible, why did we choose the Wandering Earth project in the first place? Now we want to give up lightly and sentence billions of people to death? ”
Derek, the representative of the United States, just spread his hands and said, "Maybe this is life, sometimes this happens." ”
While the others were arguing, Qiao Lu was still staring at the screen of the Earth's wheelhouse, and all the images of the unmanned probes on it had turned into a straight line.
The difference is that some straight lines are complete, while others are intermittent, with one or two gaps, and there is no way to explain the pattern.
Qiao Lu asked Li Yiyi, who was in charge of the control, "Are these unmanned detectors still operating?" ”
"How is it possible, I can't move at all, and I don't react to anything."
Li Yiyi pressed it on the operating platform, and sure enough, there was no change in the captured picture.
"And what exactly is the picture that came back?"
"Maybe it's some kind of signal failure."
