Chapter 553: Fear of the Unknown
In line with Minister Luo Kai's words, in the miniature three-dimensional cosmic space, two coordinates lit up one after another, as if they were two lighthouses protruding from the ocean in the dark night. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
"This unknown cosmic civilization is indeed heading towards the New World at high speed." When Minister Luo Kai said this, his expression was a little complicated, and his tone was not as calm as before.
Everyone present was well aware of the significance of these two coordinates, and this inference also made Chang Yu's nerves highly sensitive.
Because, as long as you have the location information of these two coordinates, combined with the time difference between the unknown cosmic civilization to send relevant signals. It is possible to calculate the approximate sailing speed of the fleet of the unknown universe civilization.
Under normal circumstances, the space speed of a certain cosmic civilization can also reflect and measure their scientific and technological strength.
Sure enough, Minister Luo Kai's next sentence was related to it.
"Through calculations, we can conclude that the sailing speed of the fleet of this unknown cosmic civilization is between 50~55 times the speed of light......"
"Is that so!!" Chang Yu sighed secretly in his heart.
"This speed is highly consistent with our previous assumptions." After a pause, Minister Luo Kai continued, "This conclusion can basically be deduced that the scientific and technological strength of this unknown universe civilization is indeed far superior to ours. ”
At present, the most operational warships in the New World have only recovered to the peak level of the ancient New World period, which can exceed ten times the speed of light.
In Chang Yu's mind, a series of numbers were flashing rapidly.
"This is indeed far faster than the New World ....."
As people born in the new world, Chang Yu and the others did not have any experience of contact with other cosmic civilizations. Moreover, the other party's technological level is far beyond that of humans in the New World.
It is conceivable that the people of the contemporary New World, who have finally been unified after thousands of years of war, have finally had an incomparably bright pursuit and the happiest, most harmonious and beautiful life. What a depressing and devastating news it would be to be told that they would encounter an incomparably formidable potential adversary in a few decades, and that they would most likely be plunged into an unknown crisis.
"Based on the coordinates of the three messages sent by this unknown universe civilization, we can deduce that their fleet began to fly towards us at a high speed almost immediately after sending the first message." Minister Luo Kai continued to analyze, "However, we don't know the specific number and situation of the other team's fleet, and we don't know if there are follow-up fleets that will continue to rush towards us at high speed from their lair. ”
"Combined with the time of these three messages, and calculated according to the location and speed of this unknown cosmic civilization, we can conclude that this super-cosmic civilization will arrive in the new world in 29 years at the earliest and 41 years at the latest."
Minister Luo Kai's few words just now painted a really not very good picture for everyone present.
"What should we do?"
"Could it be that in thirty or forty years' time, we will face a strong opponent head-on......"
"But what can or should we do before the other person arrives?"
Thirty or forty years, judging from the development of the new world, is not long, but it is impossible to use this period to reach or approach the scientific and technological strength of the unknown universe civilization.
Minister Luo Kai looked at the people who were talking, paused slightly, and then said in an accentuated tone: "Yes, we only have 30~40 years left to prepare. It's not a long time. In fact, it can even be considered quite short. ”
Immediately, the silence in the conference room turned to discussion, and the staff participating in the meeting were talking to each other and exchanging their opinions.
Minister Luo Kai did not interrupt the crowd's communication, but continued to stand on the podium in silence.
After about a quarter of an hour, Luo Kai on the stage coughed lightly, and the room quickly returned to quiet.
Minister Luo Kai continued, "In the coming period, our science department must make as detailed an assessment as possible of the scientific and technological level of this unknown cosmic civilization as soon as possible. As you can see, this is absolutely at the heart of what we do, as our research will largely influence or determine the federal government's final decision on this event. ”
"Good and evil are related to people's hearts, but the strength of science and technology is an objective fact!!"
Such a sentence suddenly came out of Minister Luo Kai's mouth, and Chang Yu quickly realized the deep meaning.
"People are unpredictable, and I think the same is true for aliens, but regardless of whether they have good intentions or malicious intentions for the new world this time, trying to understand their technological prowess is the first thing we must complete."
Chang Yu knows very well that as a science department, the first task is to provide the most detailed and reliable research report for high-level decision-making in the Federation.
Just as he was thinking about it, Chang Yu saw a middle-aged man with a grim face and a majestic figure standing up, he adjusted his megaphone, and let his voice spread throughout the entire conference hall: "Commander-in-chief, first of all, I want to apologize, because until now, our team has not been able to accurately describe the specific level of technology of this unknown cosmic civilization......"
It was none other than Commander Karl of the IEA's scientific group who spoke.
"The unknown is often becoming more and more frightening, which is one of the reasons why the current civilization of the unknown universe is putting so much pressure on us. Of these, I am most concerned that there are areas of technological proficiency in this civilization that we cannot comprehend. ”
"Incomprehensible realm ......" Hearing this, Luo Kai's eyes trembled, and the wrinkles on his face became deeper and heavier.
The top scientists in the room understood what the so-called "incomprehensible field" meant.
The existence of "incomprehensible realms" means that the technological level of the other party will be much higher than that of humans in the new world. And this gap will be so big that it will break through the technical level and extend to the cognitive level of scientific theories.
For example, both human civilization and the civilization of the unknown universe have mastered faster-than-light travel and communication technology, and the difference is only in the actual rate. This is the gap in technology, but the relevant theories are still within the scope of human civilization.
However, similar to the situation that ancient humans only knew cold weapons but could not understand the high-energy weapons of modern humans, it is that ancient humans had a blind spot in their scientific theories. This is what Commander Karl fears - the level of technology of this unknown cosmic civilization exists in areas that we cannot understand.
Imagine that while everyone is still discussing how to defend against the civilization of the unknown universe, our opponent has suddenly descended into the new world through some unknown way.
And when the human camp in the new world faces an unknown and powerful opponent, it doesn't even know and can't guess what kind of attack they will use against themselves, maybe some kind of magical space weapon will surprise us in the next moment.
This is the fear of unknown food......
