Chapter 108: Ruling Civilization
Noah quietly understood the description of the inheritance capsule (human) for such a political body as the Galactic Council, and it was really hard for the girl to imagine that in such a cosmic environment where civilizations are suspicious of each other and hidden, it is possible to produce a political body on a cosmic scale. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Even if this Galactic Council does exist, I can't be sure if they mean good to me......"
Noah's voice was a little low, indeed, in just a few minutes, she had obtained too much information about the universe, and this information was no less important to the girl than the so-called knowledge inheritance.
However, the girl also realized that her former self was like a little wild cat wandering in the dark jungle without scruples, and it was only because her "sense of existence" was not strong enough and her good luck that she could survive smoothly in this dark forest.
The Kara civilization, which has been at odds with itself for tens of thousands of years, may be just another little snake that is also ignorant, neither of them is aware of the other predators that sneak in the jungle in a low-key manner, Noah thinks he has become a powerful predator in order to capture the "mouse" of Sidnia, and Kara considers himself the overlord of the jungle in order to defeat Noah, a little wild cat...... That's it, the war between a little wild cat and a little snake became a self-deduced cosmic war on Orion's spiral arm.
There may be a lot of "insects" that are silent at the sight of the war between two "huge" predators, or there may be a few giant beasts hiding in the dark jungle to watch the war between the two little ones as a wake-up entertainer.
That little snake is too arrogant to know what its whereabouts are, and what should the remaining little wild cat do?
As if sensing Noah's emotional slump, the Legacy Cabin (human) responded.
"Although there is no doubt about the existence of a large number of civilizations, the living space of the galaxy is even vast, in the space under the diameter of 100,000 light years, no amount of civilization can fill this space, and among these civilizations, no matter how many interstellar civilizations there are, the proportion is still at the top of the pyramid."
Well, no matter how many huge predators there are in the jungle, there will always be more insects than predators.
"Although the Galactic Council is called a parliament, it is actually a system of regional autonomy, and you also know that the Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy, and the Galactic Council divides the 360-degree circumference of such a barred spiral galaxy into 72 parts in the form of a circumference of 5 degrees, and each parliamentary civilization will be in charge of the administration of one of the parts of the parliament, so to fully realize the functions of the political body of the Galactic Council, 72 advanced governing civilizations are needed. Looking back on the history of the galaxy, the moment of raising 72 ruling civilizations is also very rare, so the Galactic Council has basically been in a state of incomplete functions. ”
The reply from the inheritance capsule (person) aroused Noah's doubts, and the girl asked.
"Why? Could it be that there are really so few advanced civilizations, and there are still 72 advanced civilizations in the entire galaxy? ”
"Much more than that."
"What's going on?"
With Noah's question, the inheritance cabin (person) sighed slightly.
"Becoming one of the 72 ruling civilizations, although it can bring huge benefits, but at the same time, it also bears the responsibilities given by the council, as the ruling civilization of the Galactic Council in a certain galactic region, it has almost become the executor of power in that region, but as the executor of power, it also needs to be responsible for the civilization under its jurisdiction, after all, no matter how the Galactic Council evolves, the original intention of its creation is to illuminate this dark forest, although the ruling civilization has the power of regional autonomy, but also to follow the galactic code, The civilization in it must not be wiped out or invaded at will, and it will become a rule to govern the civilization in the jurisdiction, and under this common rule, the civilization under control does not have to hide in the dark forest, but can try to come out and communicate with other civilizations face-to-face. ”
The Legacy Cabin (person) sighed.
"But the most important point is that as a regional ruling civilization, when the regional civilization suffers an extinction disaster, theoretically the ruling civilization has the obligation to help them, and similarly, when there is a war between the internal civilization, although the ruling civilization does not have to intervene, it must also ensure that there will be no malicious massacre of intelligent life, which will be a disadvantageous and risky thing, and at the same time, when there is an invasion of foreign enemies, anyone can escape, but the ruling civilization represents the dignity of the Galactic Council, and they are not allowed to flee without a fight, These responsibilities are sometimes too heavy for all civilizations to bear......... But if you think about it from another angle, when a civilization has the ability to become a ruling civilization, and there is no civilization in the region that can compete with it, does it still need to join the Galactic Council to become the ruling civilization? It itself has supreme power over the region, and is not bound by the council and has no responsibility. ”
The girl who heard the reply of the inheritance cabin (person) was stunned, and she couldn't help but feel a little funny.
"What about a higher level of civilization that is said to lead to a higher moral code?"
"As I said, that's not entirely true, there are always civilizations that do everything on the premise of their own civilizational interests."
The message from the inheritance capsule (human) also seems to have a sense of loss in it, and it seems that he doesn't like that kind of civilization.
"This part of the civilization that has the ability to govern civilization but does not choose to become a ruling civilization has become the second largest higher civilization in the galaxy, some of them are based on their own interests and evade responsibility, and some are in a transcendent position, the technology of other civilizations has no reference or communication significance for them, and even the parliament does not dare to easily become enemies with them, and naturally there is no need to deal with some weak civilizations. This part of the civilization is called the [own civilization], which means that it only cares about itself, and the [ruling civilization] has become the two major civilization groups in the galaxy. ”
Of course, if it is the second type of transcendent own civilization, they naturally don't have to worry too much, and the first type of own civilization that chooses to have power but evades responsibility has to hide under the dark forest, secretly controlling the weak civilization, but also avoiding the sight of the powerful civilization...... Personally, I don't think that kind of civilization has any point in existing. ”
There was obviously a hint of emotion in the message of the Legacy Cabin, which for some reason made Noah's mood a little better.
"Sure enough, the life of the constructor is still life."
"When did you get the illusion that I am not life?"
The ball of light in front of the floating girl vibrated and expressed her dissatisfaction.
"If that's all for your question, we can end the legacy process very quickly."
"I'm sorry, please tell me more information before passing it on."
Noah immediately apologized very sincerely, no matter what, the constructed life that provided so much valuable information to the girl had already gained Noah's favor to a certain extent.
The inheritance capsule (person) was silent for a moment, as if he could sense Noah's affection for him, so he continued.
"Returning to the question you raised earlier, why it is not undesirable for you to be exposed to the universe is because your current position is within the 5th degree range of the galaxy, and it is likely that there is no ruling civilization or a higher civilization of your own."
This made Noah slightly stunned.
"Why do you know that?"
"Although I have been asleep, it does not mean that I cannot perceive the outside world, the civilization (Kara) that took me in before has traveled a long distance, and I have also traveled a long distance, so I can be sure."
"Are there any requirements to be a ruling civilization?"
In the face of Noah's question, the inheritance cabin (person) did not delay and continued.
"There are only two requirements in terms of science and technology to become a ruling civilization: first, to master faster-than-light navigation technology and to have the ability to intervene in power within one's own jurisdiction. Second, it has the ability to adjudicate against any civilization within its jurisdiction. As long as the civilization meets these two conditions, it can start a competition with the ruling civilization. ”
The reply of the inheritance cabin (person) made Noah stunned, and an inexplicable light flashed from the girl's blue eyes, the first condition has been met, and the second condition has not been met, although it is very close.
The blue eyes were as deep as a pool, and a trace of possibility broke into the girl's logical thinking.
The Kara civilization, on the other hand, has met the above two conditions.
This made Noah have to think, could it be that the Kara civilization had already come into contact with the Galactic Council? If they succeed in becoming a ruling civilization, it will be quite disadvantageous for the girl.
The girl's eyes couldn't help but become a little dangerous.
She is currently not interested in the competition of ruling civilizations, but if a civilization suddenly emerges and becomes the ruler of civilization within the girl's range, this is something that Noah can't bear, no matter what kind of civilization that civilization is, let alone if it is a civilization that was once hostile.
Sure enough, enemies are enemies, and there is never the possibility of becoming friends.
Just as Noah was already thinking about how to carry out the next battle plan against the Kara civilization, the inheritance capsule (human) replied.
"The time of our conversation is not eternal, what other questions do you have? As long as it doesn't involve information in the field of science other than the inheritance technology [Entropy Enhancement Weapon], I can tell you a lot. If there are no problems, the legacy can begin. ”
Faced with the question of the inheritance cabin, Noah thought for a moment, and then asked.
"I have a Kadashev scale in my database that describes the degree of civilization in the universe, and I would like to combine this scale to understand the approximate level of civilization of other civilizations in the universe."
In the face of Noah's question, the inheritance module (person) was silent for a moment.
"Our civilization has not come to the end of the universe."
"Then at least tell me the level of civilization within the galaxy."
Noah still asked, this piece of information is very important, even as important as inheriting technology, and the girl must understand what powerful predators lurk in the galaxy.
The inheritance capsule (person) seemed to sigh and said.
"Your Kadashev scale is actually very close to the civilization scale created by the Galactic Council, and it is very fair to measure the civilization level of a civilization by the energy output power of communication, but compared to the real civilization scale, it is also a little different."
"What's the difference?"
Noah immediately asked, she really wanted to know the next information.
"This scale is not only applicable to the galaxy, but also has appeared in many river systems that my civilization has traveled, and it also divides civilization into three major levels, with energy output power as the standard to measure the degree of civilization, but the transition between the three levels does not completely depend on energy output power."
The reply from the Legacy Module (person) came quickly, and Noah quietly understood each message.
"Translated into words that you can understand in three levels, what do you think is the difference between a Type 1 civilization and a Type 2 civilization?" (To be continued.) )
