"The three giants of the solar system possess an enormous number of warships. Each combat fleet combination has a complete war system, from rough processing to fine processing. Even if the solar system is destroyed and the combat fleet combination arrives at an unfamiliar star system, they can still use their complete war system to create all the technological products in the human world, or even reshape a human world."
"Such a combat fleet combination, roaming the universe, could be like a cosmic destroyer, casually annihilating civilizations within star systems. So why did it just disappear like that? It couldn't even last an hour against nine water droplets."
To be honest, Lin Feng did have some hope for humanity's antimatter fleet, because they used antimatter. In his previous life, many people said with certainty that if humanity mastered antimatter bullets, the Droplet would definitely not be able to win.
Actually, upon closer examination, this idea is unreasonable. There are trace amounts of antimatter particles in the solar wind. If a water droplet enters the solar orbit and blocks the sun, wouldn't it disintegrate on its own after being near the sun for a long time?
However, even if the droplet possesses unknown means of defending against antimatter, humanity's antimatter warships are not without a chance of winning. The warships only need to accelerate to 30% of the speed of light, and as long as they are prepared to engage from the start, the droplet will be completely unable to catch up with the human warships.
Relying on their high speed, they constantly engage in guerrilla warfare with the water droplets, depleting each other's resources. It's still uncertain who will win.
Why did Lin Feng go to such lengths to get humanity to develop antimatter warships? Why did he constantly use virtual space exercises to stimulate and expand his strategies and tactics? Wasn't it because he held hope for the human fleet?
Luo Ji's Black Forest Deterrence is extremely risky. If humanity can defeat the Trisolaran fleet, there is no need to adopt Luo Ji's risky safety net strategy.
It's a pity, they're so disappointing!
Why the hell won't you listen to me?
"I don't feel any sense of tragedy at the demise of the human fleet, only sorrow," Lin Feng said.
Inside the room, besides Lin Feng, there were also a group of core high-ranking members of the Taylor system. The Taylor system's fleet was gone, but the space cities were still there, and there were still a few engineering ships and transport ships available.
Upon hearing Lin Feng's words, the remaining core members of the Taylor Group all lowered their heads.
The responsibility for this matter lies with them. Lin Feng ordered them to prepare for battle, but they chose to ignore the order and even sent a large number of spaceships into enemy attack.
From today's perspective, it was so foolish it was beyond redemption.
“We were wrong, and we are willing to accept any judgment you may render,” a core member said, sobbing like a child.
"Can a trial bring dead soldiers back to life? Can such a massive Taylor system be restored?" Lin Feng retorted coldly.
The core members of the Taylor Group, who were being questioned by Lin Feng, lowered their heads even further.
"Don't keep your heads down, I didn't mean to blame you."
Lin Feng's gaze shifted from the monument in the live broadcast to the core members in the room.
Lin Feng said, "When I first became a Wallfacer, I thought the biggest problem for humanity was ETO. I used plans to control human thought, cut off the foundation of ETO, and with the unremitting efforts of our own people, ETO was gone."
"I also thought the biggest problem was the technological gap between humanity and the Trisolarans. I kept increasing the difficulty of the virtual space exercises, making the Trisolaran fleet more and more powerful, so that humanity as a whole could greatly expand its strategic and technological thinking in the fierce competition. Later, we had antimatter warships that could reach a speed of 70% of the speed of light, far exceeding the speed of light of the Trisolaran fleet."
"Then, PDC became an obstacle to my Wallfacer project. It didn't matter. I separated myself from human society on Earth. I didn't care about official recognition. I just considered myself a Wallfacer. I continued to promote my project. As a result, the Trisolaran droplet became the biggest problem I faced."
Lin Feng paused for a moment, then continued, "As a hibernator who has been in hibernation for two centuries, I have seen scenery that you people have never seen. I am becoming more and more aware that what hinders the continuation of human civilization has never been any external factor, but rather humanity itself!"
"Human civilization as a whole is sick, utterly sick! The system is sick, the decision-makers are sick, and even the lowest levels are sick! The entire human race in the solar system is seeking self-destruction!"
"If this problem is not solved, there will be absolutely no chance of survival for humanity in the solar system!"
Lin Feng's words were resolute, but this did not increase their credibility. Listening to them only made people think that he was an older, delusional person passionately proclaiming himself and his delusional speech.
But no one present dared to question it anymore. They had deeply experienced the description of Lin Feng from Davis's perspective as a veteran of the Taylor faction—he was like a god guiding you.
"...Then Mr. Taylor, where does humanity's way out lie?" a core member of the Taylor faction asked cautiously.
"Humanity needs a racial transformation; we need to transform the human race to the point of 'non-existence'," Lin Feng said.
But the core members couldn't understand what Lin Feng was saying at first glance.
"Non-existence means..."
Lin Feng said, "Literally, it means non-existence. No one knows you, no one touches you, no one cares about you. You are unknown to the universe at birth and unnoticed by the universe after you disappear. In this way, you achieve eternity where you are no longer targeted by anyone. Only we ourselves know ourselves."
Even the core members of the Taylor faction couldn't imagine what that situation would be like, no matter how hard they racked their brains.
"Is this really possible?" someone asked incredulously.
Lin Feng glanced at the other person and said arrogantly, "If you think it's impossible from the beginning, you'll never be able to do it."
……
Solar System Fleet Joint Conference
The influence of the space political circle was greatly weakened due to the annihilation of the human fleet, and the Earth political circle and the Martian political circle dominated this meeting.
The rotating chairperson read out the topics they would be discussing at this meeting.
"The universe is a dark forest, and every civilization is an armed hunter, sneaking through the woods like a ghost, gently parting the branches that block its path, trying its best not to make a sound, even its breathing is cautious. It must be careful, because there are hunters like it sneaking around everywhere in the forest..."
"...In this forest, others are hell, an eternal threat. Any life that exposes its existence will soon be destroyed. This is the cosmic truth that Dr. Luo Ji discovered, and the answer to the Fermi Paradox of the past."
"The threat of the Trisolarans has been resolved, but humanity has been met with even greater malice, which comes from the entire universe. How can human civilization survive in such a crazy universe?"
After the rotating chairperson finished reading the questions, the human representatives were plunged into deep anxiety and unease.
The threat of the Trisolarans is gone, but an even more terrifying cosmic threat exists. This is not good news; in fact, it is terrible news.
Even without broadcasting coordinates, Earth's civilization might one day be discovered by other civilizations passing through the solar system, and then it would inevitably face an attack even more terrifying than the Trisolaran droplet.
If they could, they would rather turn back time to before Luo Ji's deterrence of the Three-Body Problem, because that was knowable, visible and tangible, while the Dark Forest Strike was unknown, and nothing is more terrifying than the unknown.
"I think we should still let the Trisolaran fleet enter the solar system. The technology contained in their ships will surely allow humanity to quickly close the technological gap with the Trisolarans," someone said.
This proposal was immediately opposed by other representatives. "I disagree. Allowing the Trisolaran fleet into the solar system is too dangerous."
“We have a deterrence system, and we are also bound to other human worlds outside the solar system. What can the Trisolaran fleet do if it enters the solar system? On the contrary, it is most dangerous for us to maintain our current low-tech state. The sooner we close the technological gap, the sooner human civilization will no longer have to rely solely on the deterrence system to preserve itself, and the sooner we can increase our bargaining power in negotiations with Trisolaris.”
"That's too radical. Ten water droplets could seal off the solar system. Do you know that the Trisolaran fleet doesn't have more powerful technology to block communication between the human world in the solar system and other human worlds?" the objector questioned the representative who made the proposal.
“But this stalemate is actually very disadvantageous for us. We can try to use the deterrence system to ask the Trisolarans to empty one of their ships, and then we can send a ship to take it over,” the proposer said.
However, others still do not think it is a good idea.
"A terrible idea."
"Then do you have a better way?" the proposer asked, dissatisfied.
Someone stepped forward and said, "What is certain now is that neither the Trisolarans nor we want to see our coordinates broadcast. Humanity wants to survive, and the Trisolarans are the same as us in this regard."
"The best way to break the deadlock is actually for the two civilizations to merge into one. Contact between two civilizations will inevitably lead to three outcomes: first, mutual destruction; second, one side destroys or devours the other; and third, mutual merger. Of these three outcomes, the third is the best outcome for both of them."
"We are working towards this goal: humanity and the Trisolarans must coexist. This is the only way out."
The conference was generally divided into two factions. One faction advocated peaceful coexistence, believing that humanity should bring the Trisolaran civilization into the solar system to live together and integrate into one civilization. The other faction advocated deterrence and extortion, using humanity's existing deterrence system to force the Trisolarans to hand over all their science and technology, in which case human civilization would agree not to destroy the Trisolaran civilization.
The discussion at the meeting was intense, with both sides unable to convince each other. Just then, both sides turned their attention to Lin Feng.
Now that Lin Feng has regained his Wallfacer identity, is still a representative of the Taylor faction, and is an assistant in Luo Ji's successful intimidation, his prestige at this time is second only to the savior Luo Ji.
If Lin Feng can choose to side with a faction, that faction will inevitably receive absolute support.
So someone asked during the meeting.
What do you think?
"Huh? The meeting's over?"
Lin Feng, who was in a daze, came back to his senses and said.
"..."
The human representatives were stunned for a moment, but due to Lin Feng's identity and status, no one made any accusations.
The representative who had just questioned Lin Feng gave an awkward smile and then explained what had happened, "It's like this..."
After listening to the attendees explain the situation of the two factions, Lin Feng looked at everyone with a puzzled expression.
"Is this even worth discussing? Humanity has no future, so what's the point of discussing it?"
"Uh……"
Lin Feng's words froze everyone's expressions. Some representatives could no longer bear it and complained.
“Mr. Taylor, although you and Dr. Luo Ji saved humanity together, this is a formal meeting. Please show the respect due to all attendees, which is also a matter of respect for yourself.”
Lin Feng slammed his hand on the table, stood up, and glared at the other person.
"Respect? That monument floating in space is respect! In this universe, respect and etiquette are all worthless!"
"Do you know how many alien civilizations exist in the universe right now? Do you know how many civilizations have existed since the beginning of the Big Bang, constantly growing and expanding, occupying the universe? Do you know how many civilizations are dying and being born every day in this universe? Humanity is nothing more than a fleeting ripple in the long river of cosmic time. What are we? What's so special about us?"
Lin Feng's words aroused dissatisfaction among many people, but for a moment they did not know how to refute them.
Lin Feng continued, "What's the point of uniting with the Trisolarans? Can a large ant defeat a giant? After absorbing Trisolaran technology, humanity can leapfrog ahead and surpass the top civilizations in the universe? Do you think only the Trisolarans have sophons that can block human science, while the other top civilizations in the universe are foolish enough not to create more advanced things and lock down science in the universe before human civilization was even born? And do you even know how many layers of science in this universe have been locked down?"
"I thought the doomsday battle with the nine water droplets would kill your childlike naivety, which is why I came to this meeting. Now it seems I was just overthinking it. You are still so naive, so naive that it's disappointing. I shouldn't have come to this meeting."
The representative of the deterrence-based approach retorted, "Mr. Taylor, since our ideas are naive, can you tell us your ideas? We want to know what kind of ideas are not naive, and what kind of ideas can allow humanity to continue."
Lin Feng glanced at the other party indifferently, "Give up the competition, break away from the struggle for survival, and humanity will not have to face the dark attacks of other civilizations, and will not have to consider the harsh problem of competitive survival."
“If it were possible, we wouldn’t need this meeting,” the man scoffed.
"It can be done, by following the rules," Lin Feng said calmly.
The representative of the peaceful coexistence faction became interested. "Rules? What rules?"
Lin Feng said, "Universal rules, by using the universal rules, we can keep weak human civilizations out of the fierce competition among cosmic civilizations. To them, we are non-existent, and no one will consider attacking us. So what does their strength have to do with us?"
"A fantasy!"
At the meeting, many delegates did not believe what Lin Feng said.
Chapter 226 I am a person who keeps my promises
"Severely punish the murderer! Give me justice! Humanity is the victor! The loser must submit!"
"Severely punish the murderer! Give me justice! Humanity is the victor! The loser must submit!"
……
This slogan is everywhere on the internet and on major social media platforms.
A year after the end-of-the-world war, a public opinion storm erupted in the human world. The origin of the storm is unknown, but its intensity was unprecedented. People took to the streets and gathered in front of government buildings, demanding that the government make a statement and meet their demands.
Their only demand is that the Trisolaran world hand over the war criminals of the apocalyptic war and allow them to face a just trial by the human world.
The number of deaths caused by the Doomsday War exceeded 500 million. In addition to the human fleet, the Alliance also relocated many space cities to the area in order to gain more say in the division of the Droplet.
The water droplets destroyed human fleets, but they also targeted these space cities, causing countless people to perish in space.
Today, as the victors of this war, many believe that humanity has the right to demand that the Trisolarans hand over war criminals and accept a just trial by humanity.
Since there is no justice or fairness in this world, then humanity must make justice and fairness exist in the universe!
