"So it's unrealistic for humans to stay in their own cozy nests forever, and the day the other predators in the void find Earth, unprepared humans will be wiped out."

Hearing this, Ji Bai's expression was about to speak, but the thin man on the opposite side took the first step and said:

"I know what's going on in your head, peaceful coexistence? Or temporary surrender?

Since the other party's civilization is so developed, even the little humans who can't do interplanetary immigration should not pose a threat, so why make a big move, right?

Maybe the two sides can reach a consensus on some aspects, and humans can learn from each other's more advanced technology, so that it will be more perfect.

Do you think so? ”

Ji Bai nodded, although he felt that it was a bit whimsical to reach a cooperation, but with the strength of human civilization, he really couldn't find a reason to let a high-level civilization invade.

The universe is so big, there are so many places to explore, why bother with extra energy on a planet that already has intelligent beings, and so many planets that are completely lifeless.

A planet that has not been exploited by living beings at all, doesn't it smell?

"It's normal for you to think like this, or when you hear about it for the first time, there will be a large number of people who think this way, it is the limitations of human civilization and lifespan that limit your thinking."

The thin man waved his hand, and the fog around him quickly gathered into a high-backed chair and a round table.

The thin man stretched out his right hand and beckoned Ji Bai to sit down, signaling that the two could talk slowly.

"In the eyes of human beings, the universe is incomparably vast, and it is impossible to explore one billionth of it in a lifetime, and the theoretical resources are also endless, and it seems that there is no difference between one more civilization and one less civilization.

But the real high-dimensional civilization is different, the universe in their eyes, just like the earth in the eyes of human beings, development resources and living space are limited, and there will always be a day when they run out.

To put it bluntly, if human beings use a little, they will be able to use a little less, and in the foreseeable distant future, with the progress of human civilization, the resources and space required will become larger and larger. ”

The thin man leaned forward slightly, and an invisible sense of oppression emerged from him:

"Remember, when a civilization on a cosmic scale encounters another civilization, its first reaction is always to completely destroy the other civilization and make room for the development of its own civilization.

As for peaceful coexistence, it is possible only if the other party has the means to die with him.

Even so, the idea of completely destroying the other party will not be dispelled, and the elimination of different civilizations other than oneself is an eternal iron rule in the survival of the universe. ”

After that, the thin man conjured up a tea set, poured Ji Bai a cup of hot tea and said, "After listening to this, do you still think that human beings can get along with other civilizations in peace?" ”

Ji Bai looked at the slowly rotating tea leaves in the cup, his face was solemn, and he was not in the mood to drink tea at all.

He is not a fool, the thin man has already explained so bluntly, he naturally will not have any superfluous illusions.

In the thin man's explanation, Ji Bai understood that the different civilizations in the universe, just like the different countries on the earth now, did not hesitate to use any means in order to grab development resources and living space.

Peace can only be made on an equal footing, and he will only talk to you about peace if you really have the means to threaten your opponent.

Just like a very famous lighthouse country, a joke on the Internet vividly describes the lighthouse country's style of acting:

When the Lighthouse Nation suspects you have weapons of mass destruction, you'd better really have!

As for the encounter between completely two levels of civilization, the history of blood and tears of the indigenous Indians when the British colonists discovered the North American continent can be said to perfectly explain the result of this situation.

From the beginning of the British colonizers on the North American continent in the sixteenth century until the establishment of the Lighthouse State in the nineteenth century, enslavement, organized and large-scale slaughter never stopped.

The population of the Native Americans, who had plummeted from 35 million to less than 350,000, and the remaining tribesmen were driven into barren reservations, the social system completely collapsed, and civilization once regressed to the Stone Age, and in the end, even their own beliefs and cultures were gradually wiped out, and it is no joke to be executed if they did not join Christianity.

Ji Bai once heard a little story about the self-deprecation of the Indians on the Internet: there was once an Indian who converted to Christianity, he obeyed the rules, worshipped on time, did not smoke, did not drink, and was a kind person, after he died, the Indian gods did not accept him because he was a Christian, and heaven did not accept him because he was an Indian, and in the end he came to hell, and hell did not accept him because he was a good person.

This is also because the Indians and colonists are both human beings, and if they encounter other civilizations in the universe, humans may not even have the opportunity to enter the reservation.

"And they.... I'm referring to the other civilizations in the universe, how long before they find Earth. Ji Bai asked with difficulty.

"If you're referring to a large-scale invasion by the other side, according to normal development, it should take hundreds or thousands of years." The thin man said lightly.

Hearing the time after Ji, Bai couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and the thin man smiled slightly when he saw it.

"Do you feel relieved? Think it's still early? ”

Seeing through his thoughts, Ji Bai's cheeks were slightly red and nodded, feeling that he seemed a little weak like this.

"Don't be embarrassed, everyone will inevitably relax when they hear it for the first time."

The thin man then turned his words, tapped his fingers on the table, and said:

"The time scale of hundreds or thousands of years is indeed a long time for a person, so long that you don't know how many generations of grandchildren may not see the day come.

But for a civilization, especially a civilization that has entered the cosmic scale, hundreds of thousands of years is really too fast... It's too fast... It's so fast that in the blink of an eye, before it has time to react, it has already passed.

Even if we give mankind thousands of years of development time, the ideal situation is just to explore the solar system, from a small ant to a slightly larger ant, is there a difference for them? ”

"You can't sit back like this!" Thinking of the alien civilization eyeing the earth, Ji Bai stood up a little anxiously: "You have to think of a way!" ”

"Figured out?" The thin man said to the old god, "What way? Let's talk about it. ”

Seeing the other party's unhurried tone, Ji Bai couldn't help but feel a little anxious in his heart: "The top priority is to remind the government-"

Speaking of this, Ji Bai stopped abruptly, couldn't help but smile bitterly and fell back to his seat, he knew that he was a little sick and rushed to the doctor.

Alert the government?

Not to mention that he will be directly driven out as a madman, just one, what will he do when others ask him to show evidence?

Name the existence of the system?

It's not that Ji Bai is pessimistic, even if he proves to others that he is indeed in a system, the most likely thing is to be locked up for research, and no one will care about the affairs of alien civilizations at all.

The thin man picked up the water cup and took a sip: "Figured it out?" ”

Ji Bai smiled bitterly and said, "It's me who is whimsical. ”

"It's good that you can be anxious about the fate of humanity." The thin man smiled and said, "Besides, even if there is a way to convince humans, I am not in favor of directly announcing it." ”

Ji Bai couldn't figure it out: "Why?" ”

"You don't think that there is only one advanced civilization in the universe, the truth necromancy, right? There are more strange civilizations in the universe, their civilization system is incredible, and the power system is extremely weird.

If human beings are made aware of the existence of extraterrestrial civilizations, it is foreseeable that there will be all kinds of ill-intentioned people who will create countless evil sects large and small for their own private interests.

At that time, it is estimated that the civilization after a thousand years has not yet reached the door, and it will attract more terrifying existences. ”

The thin man put down his glass of water and said meaningfully, "Remember, don't think too much of human beings, and likewise, don't think of them too highly. ”
