Voyage of the Stars

It's really outrageous, no wonder Zhao Youqin said this at the beginning.

Yue Yuan nodded and looked at the others: "You guys should also talk about it."

"Chief, should we import the broadcast information into the central computer?" As soon as Yue Yuan finished speaking, a voice suddenly emerged from the crowd.

"What are you thinking about?" Yue Yuan's eyelids twitched and he looked at the guy who had just spoken in disbelief. Damn it, how come there are still people who think like this?

Isn’t Silver Mist’s lesson enough?

A broadcast message whose authenticity is unknown, only follow it if you are sick. What kind of long-distance communication device, even if it is real, Yue Yuan would not dare to do that.

"Well" seeing Yue Yuan's reaction so fiercely, another expert present groaned first and then started to speak. He was a sociologist.

"I look at it this way. Assuming that this message is true, then we can notice that five keywords are mentioned in it. One: The Immortal Community, Two: The Silicon-based Federation, Three: The Reaper Civilization, and Four: Sanctuary , Five: Galactic Alliance.”

The Galactic Alliance is the abbreviation of the Galactic Axis Alliance.

"No, there are two more keywords: 'defection' and 'artificial intelligence civilization'!" added a sociology researcher.

"Yep."

The sociologist first nodded to the researcher who was supplementing him, and then continued: "Based on the overall analysis, the broadcast involves four entities, or groups, or civilizations. The first is the Community of Immortals, If we look at it literally, this existence should be a 'multi-civilization community', and 'Hercules' is the name of this civilization community."

It sounds like nonsense, but it caught the attention of an astrophysicist: "Hermes? Hmm. One of the four major cantilevers of the Milky Way is called the Hermes cantilever. I wonder if it is a coincidence."

As soon as these words came out, there was a flurry of discussion immediately.

This is an automatically translated broadcast message. It seems that the word "yingxian" is not used casually. It is indeed possible.

If it is related to the Yingxian Cantilever, will there be other cantilevered civilization communities?

At this time, the sociologist continued to analyze: "Since there is a civilized community, it means that the universe is not all a dark forest. In the dark universe, the so-called alliances, coalitions, and communities are to a large extent It can’t exist.”

"Because since it is an alliance, it must be composed of two or more civilizations, and the same is true for the terms 'union' and 'community'. Of course, it is also possible that these civilizations did not know the dark reality of the universe at the beginning. They started to come into contact when they were young, and after getting along for who knows how many years, they have merged with each other and formed an interdependent relationship, thus forming an alliance."

"But compared to this possibility, I think another possibility is greater, that is, there is an extremely powerful civilization as the leader, which contacts many weak civilizations to form an alliance, or forms a distinct regional community. As mentioned in the broadcast, the Immortal Community.

In this way, under the suppression of a powerful civilization, the theory of the dark forest became a decoration, but this brought another question. Why did they accommodate a weak civilization? The dark forest may be the conclusion that we humans use to infer the universe based on our own experiences, but how to explain that it can accommodate weak civilizations? What's the benefit if it's possible? "

The sociologist's voice gradually became quieter. It was obvious that he did not fully understand the key, because he did not believe in the existence of so-called pure kindness or morality among civilizations.

"Maybe there is, it's just that we don't know." At this time, the sociology researcher just took over and said: "Maybe these so-called 'alliances', 'communities', and 'unions' don't necessarily mean literal meanings. They may really be composed of multiple civilizations of equal strength."

"It's not impossible." Another scholar seemed to be unable to stand it anymore. He shook his head and said, "But I think these are not the point."

"Then what's the point?" the researcher expressed dissatisfaction.

The scholar immediately asked: "Shouldn't the focus be on the Axis Alliance of the Galaxy, the Reaper Civilization, the Silicon-based Federation, and the Immortal Community itself?"

When everyone asked about this, they all nodded secretly.

Indeed, as he was talking, he turned in the direction of speculation about whether the cosmic civilization was in a dark forest. The key message of this broadcast was indeed the existences themselves.

The scholar who asked the question continued: "We don't know for what purpose the Galaxy Axis Alliance sent this broadcast, and it has been sent so many times. But if the content of the broadcast is true, then it means that the existences they mentioned are also fact,

According to the broadcast, it was because a certain civilization defected from the Immortal Community that it led to the possible follow-up actions of the Immortal Community. If the Perseus Community is truly a civilization group of the Perseus Cantilever, then it is conceivable that the defecting civilization also came to the Orion Cantilever from the Perseus Cantilever. This shows that this defecting civilization is also an advanced civilization, at least level four. "

"That silicon-based consortium, according to what was said on the radio, is obviously heading towards artificial intelligence civilization. Don't you think the so-called artificial intelligence civilization is very familiar to you?"

"You mean Silver Mist?"

"right."

"hiss!"

When they thought that the so-called artificial intelligence civilization was Silver Mist, everyone in the bridge of the Hope took a breath of cold air.

If true, what does that mean?

This shows that this broadcast is really closely related to mankind. How long has it been since mankind left the Ross 154 star system? If the traces of the silver mist were really discovered by those advanced civilizations, wouldn't it mean that those advanced civilizations had used some means to secretly observe during this period? Have you passed this star field?

If it were before, humans might still find it difficult to find a civilization in the vast sea of ​​stars.

But such outrageous things as "self-contained intelligent information" have come out. Who can guarantee that a civilization that is very impressive just by its name will not have other observation methods that are unimaginable to humans!

Is it true, as the broadcast said, that the star field of the Orion Cantilever has fallen into extreme danger and has become a place of concern for all parties?

This is too terrible.

Their own experiences have made humans very repulsive to those so-called alien civilizations, and they are also very afraid of encountering advanced civilizations again.

But then again, since the Galactic Center Alliance that sent the broadcast did not come directly to the door, it means that humans have not been discovered yet, otherwise there would be no need to send out the broadcast. This may be the best news that humans have read from the broadcast. .

Of course, it is also possible that humans think too highly of themselves, taking it for granted that the broadcast is for them, and speculating on the authenticity of the broadcast due to delusions of persecution.
