The road to technology

Chapter 239 Black, so black
Perhaps, apart from Yue Yuanzhou and the civilization that released the strike, no one knows the truth here anymore.

In addition to the super-intense electromagnetic radiation gamma rays, the explosion also ejected most of its matter outward at speeds up to 10% of the speed of light, and radiated shock waves into the surrounding interstellar matter, which in turn caused its expanding gaseous dust form a shell-like structure, but that will be for a later time.

Now Yue Yuanzhou is not in the mood to care about the explosion of this supernova, because he is very puzzled, and the reason is that he can't find who lost the light particle.

"It's well hidden, isn't it, the high-level civilizations in the Trisolaran world are so stupid?"

Yue Yuanzhou frowned and walked back and forth in the hall. He still doesn't know how he was discovered. From entering the universe to being hit by light particles, he didn't even think about doing anything to expose himself.Could it be a busy route?

Now Yue Yuanzhou has placed the Shenzhou star in the cosmic sky, and at the same time is constantly sending detectors to the nearby star systems. These detectors do not emit any electromagnetic waves, and only quantum entanglement communication is always on.

Now that you know it's this universe, it's always right to be careful.Even if he is very confident in his technology, he must be careful. The water here is too deep, hiding himself is the first step.

Just as Yue Yuanzhou continued to quietly send out a batch of detectors, Carl walked in from the gate. He also understood some of the situation just now, but he was not very clear about some situations, so now he thought that Yue Yuanzhou was in this universe with others. There is a grudge, so he asked: "Explode the stars! This seems to be different from Lieyang Technology. Why did you suddenly get attacked? Did you have a grudge against them before?"

Yue Yuanzhou turned his head speechlessly to look at Karl, who was in a phantom state and still walking with sound, he had a feud.

He didn't want to say it at first, but when he saw that Ah Zhui who had been waiting was also puzzled, he thought it was better to explain, but he didn't say too much: "No enmity! It should be the origin of this universe. That's it."

"How?" Carl didn't ask how he knew.

"Dark forest, the universe is a dark forest, every civilization is a hunter with a gun, sneaking in the forest like a ghost, gently pushing aside the branches blocking the way, trying not to let the footsteps make a sound, even breathing must Be careful, because there are hunters prowling like him everywhere in the forest. If he finds other life, there is only one thing he can do: shoot and destroy it. In this forest, other people are hell and an eternal threat. Any life that reveals its existence will be wiped out soon, this is the picture of cosmic civilization, so we should have been exposed to the vision of a well-hidden civilization just now."

Yue Yuanzhou introduced the concept of light particle strike to them.

After he finished speaking, before Carl could speak, Ah Zhui couldn't help but put away his legs and stood up from the sofa and asked, "Why? How could there be such a concept!"

"Why." Yue Yuanzhou thought for a while and explained: "First of all, there must be two basic axioms. First, survival is the first need of civilization. Second, civilization continues to grow and expand, but the total amount of matter in the universe remains unchanged. This is Do you have any objections?"

"no!"

"no!"

It was not Karl and Ah Zhui who said there was no one, but Mo Di and Shi Jiao, who had always appeared in pairs. They just arrived when Yue Yuanzhou was talking, and they bowed to Yue Yuanzhou as they spoke.

"Here we come, let's listen together." Yue Yuanzhou waved his hand to indicate that there is no need to be polite, and then continued: "There is also a chain of suspicion. The two sides cannot judge whether the other party is a benevolent civilization. The goodwill and malice between civilizations. The difference between good and evil. Putting such words in science is not rigorous, and if Zhuangzi was around, he would definitely say a lot of truths, so you can take it literally, kindness means not actively attacking and destroying other civilizations, and maliciousness is the opposite."

"A civilization cannot judge whether another civilization is a good civilization or an evil civilization, cannot judge whether another civilization thinks its own civilization is a good civilization or an evil civilization, cannot judge whether another civilization will launch an attack on its own civilization, and cannot judge whether another civilization is good or bad to itself. Well-intentioned or malicious, it is impossible to judge whether another civilization thinks it is good-hearted or malicious, and it is impossible to judge another civilization to judge itself as good-hearted or malicious towards it.”

"Another reason is that any civilization may experience a technological explosion. If you don't eliminate a backward civilization, it may suddenly become stronger soon, and then find you and destroy you."

There are many civilizations in the universe, and there will always be civilizations that attack the civilization whose coordinates are exposed.

After Yue Yuanzhou finished speaking, Shi Jiao rolled his eyes twice. Before anyone else could speak, he immediately grasped the key point, so he said: "So communication will definitely expose the position of civilization! But all of this should be based on the fact that the speed of light cannot be surpassed." above."

"Yes, if the relative speed of civilization's warp speed exceeds the speed of light, it will easily break the communication barrier and break the chain of suspicion." Yue Yuanzhou found that these people were all looking at him.

"Why are you all looking at me? Huh? The speed of light! Are you saying that the civilizations in this universe cannot travel faster than the speed of light?" Yue Yuanzhou remembered, it is true. If these civilizations can exceed the speed of light, they would have broken through long ago. Chain of suspicion.

But even if the chain of suspicion is broken, as long as the total amount of matter in the universe remains unchanged and there is a technological explosion, according to the tradition of the universe, what should be destroyed is still destroyed.If it is not destroyed, is it possible to wait for these civilizations to develop and snatch the resources of the universe?

As for warp speed sailing, wouldn't he be traveling sideways at warp speed sailing at [-] times the speed of light?
Huh? !No, haven't tried it yet! ! !

"You have reminded me that maybe we have overlooked a problem. Let's take a look first."

As Yue Yuanzhou spoke, he waved a projection screen, and inside the projection screen was the detector he had released before. Because of the previous concealment, he subconsciously did not turn on the warp speed.

But now he directly gave one of the detection spacecraft the command to enter the warp speed, and his action made all the people present who were staring at the data gasp.

On the projection screen, after the detection spacecraft starts to travel at a warp speed, the warp crystal used as fuel immediately releases energy that distorts space-time, and then the detection spacecraft instantly enters a warp speed flight, but according to the data displayed, the current detection spacecraft The relative speed of is the speed of light!
In other words, the seemingly normal universe limits the upper limit of warp speed!

"These data are all normal, what's the matter?" Mo Di, who already has a very deep scientific literacy, suddenly cried out. He knows that the highest warp speed of civilization is [-] times the speed of light.And now. The speed of light!It can't be surpassed, even the tricky way of warp speed navigation, where the space moves and I don't move!

Fortunately, there is no problem with the space-time transition, which has been verified before.

"This is the physical reason for the dark forest!" Karl was the first to recover from the shock. What kind of universe is this and what kind of history does it have?

At this time, Shi Jiao, who was silent at the side, shouted in his heart: Black, so black!

The only difference was Yue Yuanzhou, he saw more.

It's not that he saw more, but that he knew more from the information.

First of all, Yue Yuanzhou saw from the data that the probe spacecraft entered the warp speed flight, it entered instantly, but there was no dead line.This is enough to explain a problem, that is, the warp speed navigation they use is different from the civilization here, maybe they are not using warp speed crystals.

That's right, Yue Yuanzhou nodded secretly. This is also reasonable. After all, the warp crystal is made by himself using space technology, some kind of dark matter and soul technology.And the civilizations here are all in the dark forest. Not to mention none who have discovered this method of making warp crystals, at least most of them are impossible to have.So they're going the other way!
Yue Yuanzhou thinks this is very possible, because he knows that the warp speed voyage in this universe has the effect of time dilation.But it seems that there is no mass-enhancing effect like light particles!

It stands to reason that warp speed navigation is impossible to have this effect, because warp speed navigation itself does not move while space moves, so this clock-slow effect is avoided in principle.

But the warp speed navigation here is the same as directly pushing the speed to the speed of light!But it's different!
Speed ​​of light, warp voyage, warp crystal, dead line, black field, light particle.

Words related to the speed of light appeared in Yue Yuanzhou's mind. After a while, he sighed, then looked at the people present and said, "We don't understand this place yet!"
