Lighting up super-god technology in the Three-Body World

Chapter 113 Humans Don’t Need a Babysitter

This question is worth studying. If scientific development has an end, then the pioneers can only stop at a certain level, just like after the Alliance has released six pieces of equipment, no matter how much money you have, you can't buy anything else.

But, is it really true?
Luo Ji asked Jiang Fan this question.

Jiang Fan replied,

"If science has no end, theoretically, those two axioms wouldn't exist, because with infinite development, it would inevitably approach omniscience and omnipotence. Once omniscience and omnipotence are achieved, there would be no survival or resource issues."

"So I dare to conclude that this universe must have a limit. When civilization develops to this limit, it can no longer make progress. Only under the pressure of survival will it have the idea of ​​destruction."

Luo Ji couldn't come up with a conclusion after much thought, so he chose to trust Jiang Fan temporarily.

"Well, even so, can we develop to that level of civilization? Even if we can, we can only be on par with other civilizations at best. How can we achieve unification?"

Jiang Fan patted his younger brother's shoulder.

"That's not your concern. I'm here to talk to you about something else."

Luo Ji waved the man's arm away without giving him face.
"What could be more important than the Trisolaran weapons coming at us?"

Jiang Fan raised his eyebrows and said,
"What a coincidence! This is the solution to this problem. Do you want to listen to it?"

Luo Ji really wanted to punch him.
"Speak quickly!"

Jiang Fan Road,
"It's simple. We can't deal with the Trisolaran weapons on our own, so we'll just use the weapons of other civilizations."

"Based on the Dark Forest Theory, once civilization emerges, there's a near-100% chance it will be wiped out."

"So, we can use this tactic to threaten the Trisolaran civilization and force them to withdraw their weapons. Otherwise, we will broadcast their galaxy coordinates."

Someone plagiarized Luo Ji's method from the original novel without showing any guilt. Perhaps it's because we've been together for a long time and we're all good friends. What's yours is mine.
Luo Ji thought about it for a moment, agreed with the feasibility of this plan, and then asked,

"If you have a solution, why don't you tell them? Why do you support escapism?"

Jiang Fan replied earnestly,
"Humanity doesn't need a nanny. The development of civilization is a collective development. When faced with a question of survival, we should make choices collectively!"

"Whether we flee, face the situation, or remain indifferent, this can reflect how far humanity can go in the future."

"Lao Luo, I'm not a god. You can't wait for me to make decisions on everything. Such a civilization is deformed and lacks self-correction mechanisms."

"Just like the Wallfacer Project, it only brings false hope, while the reality is bleak!"

Luo Ji lowered his eyes.

He wanted to use Jiang Fan's actions to refute Jiang Fan's words.

Aren't you the Wallfacer? Don't you bring hope to humanity?

But then I thought, it is more or less unreasonable to put the entire burden of civilization on one person, so I said,

"So what do I need to do?"

Jiang Fan put on a sad face and sighed.
"Lao Luo, I didn't want you to go, but since this is related to the continuation of human civilization, I..."

Luo Ji suddenly felt a sense of déjà vu, but before he could think about it, his curiosity piqued, prompting him to speak.

"Just tell me!"

Jiang Fan is in a state of acting.

"I've thought about it and decided to give it to someone else. After all, you're Xiao Yinyin's father, and I can't bear it!"

"Say it quickly!"

"How can I put it? It's hard to say, it's hard to say!"

The black line on Luo Ji's forehead was about to become visible. He looked at the man in front of him with a sinister look.
"If you don't tell me, don't look for me anymore."

Jiang Fan jumped forward and shook Luo Ji's hand.
"Lao Luo, have you promised me? You can't go back on your word!" Luo Ji remembered that his grandson had used this trick to get him to join Xiling Company and become a 24-hour worker!
I can't indulge him this time. I immediately shook off the single old man's arm and said ruthlessly and distantly,
"That's all I can say, but don't push me. I'm a married man now!"

Hey, the routine failed.

Jiang Fan withdrew his arm and coughed lightly.
"Ahem, let me be frank. I hope you can lead a fleet out of the solar system and establish a radio deterrent against the Trisolarans."

This made Luo Ji fall silent instantly.
Carrying out this mission means leaving Blue Star, leaving his wife and daughter, and wielding the sword alone in the starry sky, with no idea when he will return.

A solemn atmosphere permeated between the two of them, and neither of them wanted to speak first. However, Jiang Fan's eyes kept turning, but Luo Ji, who was in a complicated mood, did not notice.

After a long time,

Luo Ji asked with difficulty,
"Must I go?"

Jiang Fan nodded solemnly.
"I don't trust anyone else. Only you can intimidate the Trisolaran civilization."

Luo Ji closed his eyes and sighed to the sky.
"The Buddha said, if I don't go to hell, who will? Tell me, when do you need me to leave?"

Jiang Fan had a strange expression on his face, and was obviously trying to suppress his laughter.

"You've made up your mind so quickly? Why don't you discuss it with Xiao Yinyin and Zhuang Yan?"

Luo Ji waved his hand decisively.

"No, I'm afraid that after this discussion, I won't want to leave!"

"Good!" Jiang Fan gave a thumbs up.

"You are worthy of being my brother. Don't worry, I will take care of your wife and daughter."

Luo Ji couldn't help it, he stepped forward and punched Jiang Fan in the chest twice, cursing,

"Can't you be more serious?"

"I will soon leave the Blue Planet and travel to deep space hundreds of millions, or even tens of billions, of kilometers away, to guard the deterrent device until the moment of my death."

"You're still laughing, do you have a heart?!"

Jiang Fan clamped his face with his hands.

"Okay, okay, don't laugh anymore."

After taking two breaths,
"Don't you want to ask when I'll be back?"

Luo Ji rolled his eyes at him.
"Do I still have a chance to come back?!"

Jiang Fan came to his side and put his arm around his shoulders.

"You are my beloved friend. How could I bear to leave you stranded so far away in space?"

Luo Ji pulled away the dirty hands and asked,
"What do you mean?"

Jiang Fan glanced at Xi Ling, and a three-dimensional dynamic image of the solar system and the Trisolaran system immediately appeared in front of them. He pointed at the simulated Trisolaran fleet and said,

"Lao Luo, deterrence doesn't last long. Compared to the real purpose of your trip, deterrence is just a bonus!"

"What I want you to do is to formally meet the Trisolarans on behalf of humanity between the Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud!"

Luo Ji looked in the direction Jiang Fan pointed, wondering if he had heard it wrong.
"Say it again? Let me go meet the Trisolarans?"

Jiang Fan nodded seriously.
"Yes, Lao Luo, you will be the first human in history to make contact with aliens!"

People really laugh when they are speechless, Luo Ji is like that.

"Hey tell me, what's the point of doing this."
