Chapter 767: A Change Unseen in Billions of Years
"There is no doubt that behind this rebellion against the sacred civilization set off by mankind is a great change in the universe that has not been seen in hundreds of millions of years."
Queen Galardriel adds a footnote to a war that is just beginning.
Although Ye Ming recognized this from the perspective of a civilization that had survived for tens of thousands of years and was once advanced for only a moment, he still maintained a solemn expression and did not express his position easily, just listening to the queen quietly.
"Therefore, as allies of humanity, we must consider what we will gain from this change." The queen said and stared at Ye Ming for a few seconds, then said softly: "I hope that Professor Ye can temporarily put aside the position of a human being at this time...... Rather, it is an objective evaluation as a bystander. ”
Ye Ming's eyes changed slightly, and then he nodded with a smile.
Indeed, if the position is set in advance, then it will inevitably be subconsciously thought that any appeal of the Krong people will have an impact on mankind, so the queen's lobbying will naturally be greatly discounted.
Naturally, he must admit that seizing any opportunity and benefit that can bring a brighter future to his own country and system is the inevitable pursuit of a good politician - if the queen blindly submits to humanity, it will not only be unqualified, but even despised.
"I can understand His Majesty's plea."
"Thank you." The queen nodded slightly, then looked straight and continued: "As a civilization that has lasted for tens of thousands of years, our goal is actually very simple, or very direct, that is, the continuation of civilization. ”
Ye Ming bowed his head again: "This is the pursuit of all civilizations, and even all species. ”
"Yes. Therefore, in this change unseen in billions of years, the question of the future survival of our civilization is solved...... It is the mission of our generation who have been caught up in the tide of change and war. ”
Ye Ming's eyelids twitched slightly, and he nodded slowly.
If the problem of habitable zone changes caused by binary star systems cannot be solved by technical means, then ...... As the Queen said, relocating to a new habitable planet was almost the only option.
"Actually, Sophie 4, tens of thousands of years ago, was one of our alternate planets for immigration." Seeing Ye Ming nodding, the queen continued: "Ten thousand years ago, the footprints of our ancestors once penetrated deep into the Red Maple Galaxy, and it was only the final war that we had to retreat to the home galaxy, and then the main mother star was destroyed, and we were forced to sign an agreement never to expand...... Subsequently, we relied on the remaining two home planets to migrate back and forth to get through the long years. ”
As she spoke, a faint sadness rose on the queen's face: "Those years of migration are tantamount to a disaster for ordinary people - whether it is the reconstruction of their homeland or the journey in the starry sky. ”
Ye Ming's brows furrowed slightly, and he subconsciously glanced at the sky.
He knew that the distance between the two habitable planets was not close - it was a supergalaxy with more than a dozen planets, and because of the binary star system, their habitable zone was also very low, basically ranking among the dozen planets. Coupled with the asteroid belt formed by a destroyed planet sandwiched between these two habitable planets, the distance between the two has reached two billion kilometers, more than a dozen astronomical units!
For such a long distance, it is all up to spaceships to transfer billions of people......
"In the last migration era, our total population was just over 100 million, and now hundreds of years later, our total population has reached 3 billion."
As if guessing what Ye Ming was thinking, the queen said softly, with indescribable worry and sentimentality in her words.
Ye Ming's brows furrowed deeply.
As a person who has been dealing with data for many years, he only judged in an instant that even if the Krong people were making a close binary star transfer...... I'm afraid that only human beings can handle it - according to the productivity of the Krong people, even if they are given a hundred years to build a spaceship, they will not be able to complete the great transfer of billions of people after several months.
There was silence in the living room.
After a long time, Ye Ming exhaled softly, and then looked at Ita: "Ita, simulate their three-body problem and livable climate problem." ”
"Yes, but the planet's climate data is incomplete."
Ye Ming immediately looked at the queen.
The queen nodded slightly: "I will ask the Academy of Sciences to open up all the planets of the Karatu galaxy and all the information of the entire galaxy to mankind - I believe that with the powerful computing power of Aita, it should be able to produce more accurate model data." ”
"Hmm." Ye Ming exhaled slowly, and after being silent for a few seconds, he said softly: "Your Majesty, this matter ...... I can't say right now because our political structure is ......"
"I understand — and I'm going to talk about the political structure."
Ye Ming was slightly stunned, and looked at the queen with some confusion.
"I know that the human community is made up of a political structure of many different races and civilizations and nations on the planet, which represents the interests of all humanity."
Ye Ming nodded slowly.
"But as the most powerful supergroup of galaxies, and at the same time the initiator of this change and rebellion, I think the definition of this community should be broadened."
The queen sat dignified and looked at Ye Ming with a serious face: "What mankind is about to overthrow is a king of the old era. ”
Ye Ming hummed softly, but he always felt a little weird - the one in front of him was not a king?
But will humans become similar kings? Or rather, you would like to see humanity become the same beings as the Holy Empire, the kind of civilization and race that divides different civilizations and races, and even slaves...... A king? ”
After finishing speaking, the queen stopped speaking and waited quietly for Ye Ming.
In silence, Ye Ming exhaled slowly.
He was so clever that he could obviously hear the Queen. And he also admitted that the queen's words could be regarded as pinching him.
As a scientist with the universe in mind, as a "teenager" who led mankind to "slay dragons", of course he ...... I don't want humans to become dragons like the Holy Empire.
"I will convey His Majesty's words to the top of the Community Parliament at the appropriate time." After a long time, Ye Ming sighed slowly: "But...... Your Majesty, this is probably a long-term ...... Tough ......"
"I know." The queen gently interrupted Ye Ming's words, and then looked at Ai Wen, who had been sitting quietly beside Ye Ming, and after staring at Ai Wen for a moment, she said softly: "I hope that one day, Ai Wen can stand on a seat called the Universe Council and contribute her wisdom and strength to the entire universe." ”

An hour later, the queen's family of three left Ye Ming's room, and soon after, Director Xia and He Mo arrived together.
Director Xia is now also a member of the increasingly large Community Parliament, according to the previous statement, she is a real G-level deputy, and because she is also the head of the Foreign Affairs Office, her identity is even more weighty.
Because the queen's appeal was too significant, Ye Ming directly took out the live video and showed it to the two while telling the two.
After the two of them finished reading, the expressions of Director Xia and He Mo unsurprisingly showed extreme shock.
Compared with Director Xia's calmness, He Mo was even more impatient, and she asked almost immediately: "Don't they know that Sophie 4 is the only habitable planet discovered so far?" Others are either Lord's...... Or it's not livable at all. Tens of billions of people are now crowded on one earth, and all kinds of resources are almost exhausted...... How embarrassed is she to speak......"
"Hmm." Ye Ming nodded slowly: "But their question is indeed more specific. ”
He Mo immediately looked at Ye Ming, his eyes full of disbelief: "You won't want to agree, right?" ”
"What are you doing?" Ye Ming's face rose with displeasure: "Can you listen to me finish speaking?" Besides, this is something that I can do alone if I can agree and refuse? ”
He Mo saw Ye Ming's rare anger, she immediately froze, knowing that she was indeed a little impulsive, she immediately bowed her head and apologized to Ye Ming.
Ye Ming looked at Director Xia and said slowly: "Ita has already simulated it just now, and the climate problem of their planet is indeed true, and it is very specific - a hundred years later, the atmospheric temperature of the planet under our feet will gradually increase by about thirty degrees, and it will continue to rise in the next hundred years." ”
“…… What about their occlusion technology? Director Xia frowned.
In order to solve the temperature problem for human beings, Kerong people have proposed shading solutions and technologies.
"This kind of temperature change is most likely unstoppable by blocking the sunlight - the climate problem on our side is because of the greenhouse effect, and the maximum is only a few degrees - but this makes us a little unbearable, they have two stars that are constantly approaching the ...... of direct light."
Director Xia's brows furrowed deeply, and she subconsciously glanced out the window.
According to the earth's schedule, it should have been the time for the sun to go down at this time, but the sun was still shining outside the window.
It can be seen that the lighting conditions here are indeed a bit too adequate.
"Actually, I was thinking about using technology and engineering to solve the problem for them, such as building a large number of reusable solar panels in orbit...... It's similar to the Dyson ring. However, it was only a little calculation that it was found that this can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, and the amount of work is still amazing. Saying that, Ye Ming pointed to the sky: "Everything in their orbit now has been made in the last few hundred years, once the three-body problem comes, the orbit will be extremely hot." You can even understand that the position of this planet will probably be between Mercury and Venus by then, which obviously cannot be done by blocking the sun. ”
Director Xia gritted his teeth: "It means that there is only one way to move?" If you don't move, you'll die of heat? ”
"Hmm...... That's basically it. Ye Ming nodded slowly: "In the past ten thousand years, they have been moving back and forth like this. Even this time, if they want to move, they can only rely on us - because the great space migration involving billions of people, relying on their current capabilities, I am afraid it is a bit hanging. ”
"And what if we didn't?" At this time, He Mo raised his head and asked softly.
"Without us, they would have started moving in the next twenty years, and the time has come to fully expand the production capacity of transport ships." Ye Ming frowned slightly: "Now that the war has started, their production capacity is basically placed on the battleship. ”
He Mo immediately stopped talking - the Kerong people are now fighting with humans, and many people have died.
Director Xia kept shaking his head, feeling that this matter was extremely tricky. In a deep groan, she continued to ask, "Did they say ...... What are the conditions? ”
"I can probably hear that the Queen wants ...... In the future, mankind will organize a true community of civilizations. And they, as members of the community, joined. ”
Ye Ming pondered Her Majesty's last words, and said slowly: "They hope that they will join this community dominated by us as a country similar to that of a country on Earth today. ”
Hearing this, Director Xia's eyelids suddenly jumped.
She has been working in diplomacy and is particularly sensitive to certain concepts.
When she heard about the national identity, she immediately realized that this should be the queen's ...... Embrace the promise of humanity in its entirety!
- To join the community as a human civilization means that they can stand with humanity without any scruples. While enjoying the well-being under the leadership of the Community, of course, it is also necessary to accept the overall leadership of humanity!
As soon as he thought of this, Director Xia stood up in an instant, clenched his fists and paced back and forth in the living room.
Ye Ming and He Mo also looked at her - of course, the two of them couldn't catch up with the old "fritters" like Director Xia in terms of political consciousness.
After a while, Director Xia stopped, took a deep breath, and looked at Ye Ming.
"I'm afraid there will be some talk about this."
He Mo immediately asked, "Why?" ”
"Because, this is a new chapter for all civilizations in the universe." Director Xia clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "If it can be realized, the will of the human race will be scattered all over the universe in another way!"
……
In the next few days, the queen did not mention any similar topics, and at the same time, Ye Ming really began to carry out his "mission" - to enter the great library of the Silver Moon Kingdom, and discuss and sort out various technologies with the scientific and technological workers of the Silver Moon Kingdom.
Time passed quickly in such a hectic situation.
But the more he communicated with these wise men of the Silver Moon Kingdom, the more Ye Ming vaguely felt that the queen's will, or appeal, had reached the ears of these wise men.
This led him to judge that Her Majesty had indeed begun to prepare for her appeal - if mankind wished to establish a true alliance of "the same book, the same track, and the same weights and measures", then ...... Humanity needs to face up to the biggest existential crisis of the Krong people and their desire to survive.
But Ye Ming didn't say anything.
As a member of the group who knows the queen's demands, all he can do is see through and not say it.
Soon, a month passed quietly, and Ye Ming was about to leave the Karatu system and go to the Tara system next door.
And just one day before his departure, the Silvermoon Kingdom officially submitted a proposal to the human community through diplomatic channels about the "Virgo Civilization Community" and an application for the solution of the three-body problem of the Karatu system.
