Chapter 367: Star Sea Pattern

PS: Thank you for your monthly ticket support!

However, for ordinary interstellar civilizations, this meteorite star sea is as huge as a mountain of life pressure, but for the earth, it is simply a huge treasure trove, and it is really squeezed in!

For other civilizations, the unfathomable pressure of competition and survival here is simply insignificant for the civilization of the earth.

In any case, as a powerful, independent, and even capable production system for the design and manufacture of various types of faster-than-light spacecraft, the Earth civilization is also a completely different level of existence than many civilizations in the meteorite star sea.

From the perspective of productivity and competitiveness, the equivalent opponent of the earth civilization in the meteorite star sea, and even only three hegemon-level civilizations, except for these three giants, the other civilizations, in terms of level, are no threat to the earth civilization.

After all, no matter how huge their size is, how many planetary entities they occupy, or how huge the population they have, or how overwhelming their production capacity, from the perspective of the comprehensive strength of interstellar civilizations, the joint force they can form is limited after all, and the ability to export reasonably to the outside world is even more limited, and it is a rather huge discount.

Because of the long interstellar space-time barrier, for an interstellar civilization, to a large extent, the faster-than-light spacecraft that travels between various planets is the key to the formation of a joint force of a civilization, the faster-than-light cargo spacecraft is equivalent to the capillaries within the civilization, a large number of faster-than-light spacecraft are gathered together, which is the arterial vein of a civilization, and the faster-than-light passenger spacecraft is equivalent to the neural network of civilization, which plays a role in connecting and coordinating the countless planets of an interstellar civilization by transporting the elite population of civilization.

Whether it is passenger or cargo, it is a high-grade interstellar civilization, an indispensable core element of civilization, there is no large number of faster-than-light spaceships existing in the civilization system, an interstellar civilization often dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of ecological civilization stars, it is tantamount to an isolated civilization island, not only can not form a system division of labor within the entire civilization system, and even over time, it will lead to the automatic disintegration of civilization It is possible.

From this point of view, a faster-than-light spaceship can even be said to be the core element of the existence of an interstellar civilization, and it is the largest cargo that a civilization that cannot independently manufacture faster-than-light spaceships has to import.

As one of the core assets of the interstellar age, the cost of each of them can be described as amazing, and when it is exported to the outside world, its price is even more amazingly expensive, if its cost is one, for the alliance members of the hegemon-level civilization, the ex-factory price has increased dozens of times, that is the treatment of the core alliance members, a slight change of hands, the transaction price of the superluminal spaceship within the alliance will be up to the height of a hundred times the cost, if you secretly output it outside the alliance, there is no thousands of times the cost of fraud, you are embarrassed to talk to others, knowing that people are killing you, you have to be slaughtered obedientlyIt must also be active, actively, and automatically go to the door to be slaughtered.

There is no way, faster-than-light spaceships are too important for an interstellar civilization, and the most important interstellar resource exchange has to rely on faster-than-light spaceships for transportation.

What you can produce on a single planet is not the most important thing, but what you can ship out of here.

If there is no faster-than-light spaceship, relying solely on the use of sub-light-level cargo passenger spacecraft to carry out transportation, there will be no export value for any valuable time-sensitive things, and the flight time of tens of hundreds of thousands of years is enough to turn the most scarce advanced scientific and technological talents into migrant workers who are lagging behind the times, enough to turn the most expensive Japanese Wagyu cattle into zombie meat that is hundreds of years old, and each planet does not have to do anything else, just to establish a complete set of manufacturing systems that can meet their own needs for various livelihood products, and solve the problem of eating, drinking, and lazing the people of this planet, it has consumed a small half of human resources。

And most of the other population's value wants to play out, want to form a valuable civilization force, or inevitably with the support of valuable faster-than-light capacity resources, otherwise, one planet, can only rely on the mining of gem minerals, by exporting goods without shelf life to compete in the interstellar era, and this grade of competition, in the meteorite star sea such an interstellar era, is undoubtedly the most worthless, the most scientific and technological content of the competition mode, because countless planets rely on this type of export in exchange for valuable foreign exchange, for the construction of their own planets, this tragic competition in the raw material system, enough to make any planet without a resource advantage spew blood in the interstellar competition, and there will never be a way out.

In the same way, a planet is like this, a civilization is also like this, the exchange between planets, the division of industry, the collection of production and manufacturing capabilities, and ultimately constitute the power support of an interstellar civilization, a production and logistics system that can only be limited to the planet, no matter how amazing it is, how different, no ability to export to the outside world, it is also equal to nothing, even for its civilization itself is worthless, put on the competition between interstellar civilizations, it is equivalent to a negative value.

Because a planet with no export value is not only unable to constitute the support of civilization, but is still a huge consumption, which needs to consume the strength of civilization as a whole to support it, then no matter how rich the planet itself is, for the entire civilization, it is only equivalent to a barren desert, and there is only negative value to speak of.

Those interstellar civilizations that cannot independently produce faster-than-light spaceships, just maintaining the import of faster-than-light spaceships, maintaining the basic existence of their civilization, and maintaining the continuous development of their civilization system are enough to form a huge existential pressure on their civilization itself, and as the size of their civilization grows, this pressure will only increase.

Most interstellar civilizations, just to maintain the most basic material and human needs within their civilizations, have already squeezed out the largest part of the faster-than-light spaceships at hand, often a huge interstellar civilization with hundreds of planets, and there are few faster-than-light spaceships that can be mobilized flexibly and flexibly at hand.

There is no doubt that such an interstellar civilization is only equal to nothing for the earth civilization. No matter how large your civilization is, if you don't have enough interstellar faster-than-light spaceships as the core support, you can't mobilize manpower and material resources, and you don't have the ability to exert influence on the outside world, so naturally it is no different from non-existence.

Such a civilization, for the civilization of the earth, is undoubtedly no different from a fat pig with a fat head and big ears to be slaughtered.

It is no exaggeration to say that in the eyes of the earth civilization, the meteorite star sea civilization circle is equivalent to several huge beast groups, the core part is a beast alliance formed by several tigers leading the wolf pack, and the slightly peripheral ones are all fat pigs and pigs with fat heads and big ears.

If the earth civilization does not pursue some of them, there is no need to make any long-term plans, just follow the prescription and follow the example of those interstellar civilization overlords, and easily pull up their own interstellar civilization alliance.

Although the Meteorite Star Sea already has three overlord-level civilizations, each of which has occupied the fattest interstellar hunting ground, occupying most of the civilization resources and remaining profits in the semi-closed civilization circle of the Meteorite Star Sea, but even those scattered and remnant civilization resources are more than enough to support the existence of three or two interstellar overlord-level civilizations, if it were not for the huge interest space in the Meteorite Star Sea, it would not be enough to raise a bunch of small overlords except for the three overlords.

After all, the space in the meteorite sea of stars is too vast, this is a three-dimensional interstellar space-time, which is often tens of thousands of light years away, and I don't know how many galaxies are carried in it. Ecological natural planet, the time and space here are so vast and broad, even the three hegemon-level civilizations cannot completely control the situation of the meteorite star sea, let alone completely control the situation, the three civilization overlords, even in this vast time and space, there is no way to figure out how many interstellar civilizations exist, on the one hand, because of the isolation of time and space, on the other hand, because there are many small star fields full of various dangers and interstellar disasters in this interstellar space, in such interstellar space, if you want to carry out an interstellar civilization census or something, the difficulty is too high。 Some small star-level civilizations are barefoot and are not afraid to wear shoes, and they dare to run around casually, and the overlord-level civilization does not dare to play like that, and accidentally pit themselves to death, how wronged it must be.

In addition, the three civilization overlords have their own side, and they are in a relationship between each other, except for maintaining a certain tacit understanding and not fighting each other, there is only a relationship left to pull each other's hind legs and misbehave, and similar cooperation projects to conduct interstellar civilization census are naturally no shadow, so in this way, even the three overlords can't figure out how many civilizations exist in this meteorite star sea.

In fact, for them, there is no point in figuring this out, after all, in this meteorite star sea, the pattern changes too quickly, except for some forces at the top of the civilization food chain, some interstellar civilizations below can be said to be simply spinning and disappearing, one will be divided, one will merge together, one civilization will be destroyed by the whole for a while, all kinds of strange situations are happening anytime and anywhere, even if it is a big census, it is useless.

Of course, in the final analysis, the strength of the three hegemon-level civilizations has not yet reached that level, and sometimes even if they have that heart, they don't have that strength, even if they want to manage as wide as possible, they can't manage it.

Not to mention the entire meteorite star sea, even the interstellar civilization alliance formed by the three overlords, the three overlords can't manage it, the starry sky is too vast, and if you want to do something, the cost will outweigh the loss because of the barrier of time and space. Speaking of which, the territory of the meteorite star is still thousands of light-years away, even if the three major civilization overlords have absolute ruling authority, there is only a certain area around the star field that they directly rule, and even within the interstellar alliance that the three interstellar overlords have pulled up, there is also a huge power vacuum.

The starry sky is too vast, and the power vacuum is an almost unsolvable problem for interstellar civilizations, and it is almost impossible to form an unbreakable interstellar order before the development of faster-than-light spaceships to thousands or tens of thousands of times the speed of light.

And the result of this is undoubtedly to leave a huge space for the development of the earth civilization, the earth civilization only needs to be a little low-key, it can be said that for a long period of time, it is impossible to cause the hostility and obstruction of the civilization giants of the level of the three hegemons.

After all, for a top-notch civilization of this level, focusing on their internal affairs is far more meaningful than suppressing anything externally, and whatever they do, the various junior brothers under their alliance are enough to deal with, and they themselves only need to improve a little bit in the technical field of faster-than-light spaceships, and expand it to the entire civilization, which is enough to form a super huge benefit.

In the face of such basic facts, the three hegemon-level civilizations are less and less concerned about the development of foreign civilizations, which is a very normal thing in itself, just like the Chinese civilization in the Tian-Shang Dynasty, who has that Yaxing to pay attention to whether the black corn in North Africa has a new evolution, whether it has been promoted from slash-and-burn cultivation to fishing and hunting civilization, not to mention that this kind of attention itself is boring or not, the cost alone will make people unbearable, reasonable people will not be so neurotic, with that financial and material resources, it is better to open up more wasteland and plant more fields in their own sphere of influence。

However, even the interstellar civilization pattern in the meteorite star sea is so conducive to the development and development of earth civilization at first glance. Under the auspices of Sima Mulong, the earth civilization has been constantly building various types of superluminal interstellar spacecraft, unremittingly consolidating the strength foundation of the earth civilization around the solar system, and tapping the development potential of the earth civilization to the greatest extent。 (To be continued.) )
