Chapter 221: Shame or Shame?
A year later, α Centauri was in sight.
For the civilization of the earth, the α Centauri may have appeared in the public's field of vision for a long time, not to mention a household name, but it is not much different in the online world.
That's right, this is the "three-body problem" world that many science fiction fans are familiar with.
However, unlike the "three-body problem" described in the novel, the three-body creature here is, to put it bluntly, a lump of liquid that moves, in terms of human aesthetics, well...... It should be a bit disgusting.
You can try to imagine that instead of a big-headed, short-headed humanoid alien, you're standing in front of you with an oversized piece of snot - it's not an insult to them, it's a fact, or a guy with a big mouth and a pair of small eyes, and the big brain must have been able to make up that beautiful picture.
But it's nothing, the so-called universe is so big that there are no surprises, even the zerg have zài, not to mention the snot clan
When Meng Ke sailed with the Earth Federation to a place 100 million kilometers away from the α planet Centauri, a probe of the Trisolaran Civilization discovered them.
The first contact between the two sides was very uneventful, and the probe flew directly 50,000 kilometers away from the planet's gravitational propulsion engine, without the slightest pause, and indeed not at all.
As for this probe, the Space Observatory of the Earth Federation had already discovered its existence, but it did not react in the slightest until it flew over the Earth, allowing it to take a large number of photos and fly away.
Since then, however, the Earth Federation has stopped 100 million kilometers α Centauri, and has begun to set up camp without hastily crossing the edge of the Centauri α, which resembles the Kuiper Belt.
It's just that since doing so, the Three-Body Civilization has not driven a large number of warships out to trouble the Earth Federation as described in the old-fashioned script, let alone emitted radio signals, they seem to have disappeared, except for the probe that they encountered before, in the next few months, the Earth Federation has not encountered any technological items belonging to the Three-Body Civilization.
For this, the high-level of the Federation is still relatively quiet, as if they have forgotten the purpose of their coming here, and still do whatever they should do, and do not say a word about the plan to enter the α Centauri, but those scientists are a little breathless, and they have urged hundreds of times in just four months.
They are like a group of cats that see mice, and they are eager to fly to the α of Centauri to go on a field trip, but their superiors have not given orders, which makes them very depressed.
If it weren't for the fact that the Earth Federation was preparing to be promoted to the pinnacle of the second-level civilization, I'm afraid that those second-class scientists with high IQ and low EQ would have made a fuss a long time ago.
Rao is like this, the president of the Federal Academy of Sciences is also annoyed by these subordinates of his own, it is really not in his position and does not know his suffering, can this kind of thing be scientific research casually? Until we figure out what's going on in the constellation Centauri, α everybody has to stay honest.
Fortunately, this situation did not last long, and early one morning in the fifth month, the Federal Cosmic Signal Observatory finally received a radio signal from α Centauri.
After more than four hours of signal cracking, a copy of the cipher was sent to the Federal Assembly
In the federal parliament hall, Meng Ke took the text handed over by Hu Wuwei and turned the first page:
"[Name] α No. 1 Wen jiàn"
"[Contents] Radio Signal Cracking"
"[Note] Note 1: The linguistic logic in this radio signal is quite complex, scientists have only deciphered 91% of the signal, and the rest has been edited by psychologists and linguists, but there are still very few parts that have not been deciphered, but it does not affect reading;"
"Note 2: The Ministry of Information has tried its best to replace the pronouns in radio signals with words on Earth, but it is still difficult to define the specific meaning of some of these words because of the differences in ethnic languages;"
"Note 3: Linguists and psychologists have tried to decipher some parts of the difficult to decipher section, together with the Ministry of Information, see [Appendix I.];"
"Note 4: For the sake of understanding, the Ministry of Information has named the civilized race in the α Centauri as the "Three-Body Problem". ”
"The second page is the main part, please turn the page."
Meng Ke casually turned the second page and raised his eyes to look in.
"[Body Part]"
"Hello respected unknown civilization, this is the three-body civilization from the α planet Centauri."
This is the beginning again...... Meng Ke suddenly rubbed his eyes a little speechlessly, could it be that these alien races don't have other opening statements?
After complaining fiercely in his heart, he continued to look down-
"Our three-body civilization is a very peace-loving civilization......"
Seeing this, Meng Ke directly closed the text with a "snap".
Don't look at it!
He could guess what was going on.
Peace? In the war of genocide of cosmic civilizations, only fools will talk to you about peace.
Besides, the earth civilization originally came here to plunder resources, and the pile of nutrients in the back is not to be seen.
Hu Wuwei and the other three parliamentarians looked at Wen Jiàn in their hands, and they were also speechless.
As Meng Ke guessed, the text of thousands of words, in addition to nonsense or nonsense, roughly means that everyone is a peace-loving civilization, maybe your level is higher than ours, but we are not much worse. So in line with the principle of friendly coexistence between the two civilizations, I would like you to take a detour and fly away next to the α star Centauri? The whole of our civilization will be grateful to you.
What is this? We went all the way to get here, but we didn't get anything and had to leave? It's not so cheap to send beggars.
I really don't know if the leader of the Three-Body Civilization is funny or something, this is too, and he wants to drive the Earth Federation away with a few words...... Are you sure it's not pulling hatred?
"Let's go on a campaign, and let them see how the flower of peace withers." Meng Ke didn't bother to wait, so he gave a direct order and threw the Wen Jiàn in his hand into the trash.
He originally wanted to wait for the Three-Body Civilization to take the lead in provoking a war, but now it's good, isn't he running to fight others?
If I knew this, I wouldn't pretend to be calm for those five months, how good would it be to go straight in? I'm afraid I'm afraid I've already occupied the α Centauri by now.
This also reminded Meng Ke that if you rob, you have to rob obediently, and what kind of diplomacy and pretending is nonsense than waiting for others to take the initiative to contact you.
The three-body civilization is a good example, people don't bird you at all, and drive you away...... Is there a shame in it? (To be continued.) )
