The Wallfacer: Everyone wants to break through my wall.

Lin Feng could sense Sophon's subtle emotional fluctuations from the text. It was clear that the Trisolaran world probably hated the eavesdropper who replied to humanity with the message "Don't answer!"

Lin Feng had to admit the validity of the possibility that Zhi Zi mentioned.

If the eavesdropper hadn't replied to the message, Ye Wenjie wouldn't have known about the existence of the Three-Body Problem. She might have just considered it a reckless, whimsical attempt and then settled down to live a good life with her husband.

The Trisolarans could reach the solar system without humanity's knowledge, and once the Trisolaran fleet arrives, even if humanity comprehends the Dark Forest Theory, there will be absolutely no chance to broadcast the coordinates of the Trisolaran home planet.

From this perspective, the Trisolaran eavesdropper who sent the "Do not answer!" message was indeed the most hated traitor in the Trisolaran world.

Sophon continued, "[Regarding the connection with the ETO organization, giving humanity their trust was the biggest mistake. Whether their intentions were good or bad, they don't deserve the Trisolaran world's trust.]"

[If Evans hadn't formed ETO, and if the Trisolaran world hadn't transmitted information to ETO, humanity would never have known that sophons suppressed fundamental science. Human scholars would have simply considered it an insurmountable scientific barrier, an unbreakable and self-evident scientific phenomenon, much like quark confinement.]

If humanity's basic science is locked down by sophons without any prior knowledge, they are more likely to become embroiled in internal strife over resources, and even more likely to engage in nuclear war, as their technological progress stagnates.

Lin Feng nodded, agreeing with this point.

If the Trisolarans did not regard Eto as a companion, they would not have transmitted information about the Trisolaran world to the human world.

If Evans hadn't formed ETO, then besides Ye Wenjie, only he would know about the Trisolaran invasion, and even if he revealed it, few people would believe him.

Alien invasion?

What kind of international joke is this? Are you making an American movie?

Few governments would really take it to heart, and no one would connect the particle accelerator being blocked by Sophons to that.

The inherent scientific concept is that, unless absolutely necessary, scholars prefer to believe that this is some kind of microscopic phenomenon that has not yet been understood, rather than the work of extraterrestrials.

Those who can believe that aliens tampered with particle accelerators can also believe that God created everything.

The Trisolaran invasion began to receive attention from humanity largely because of ETO. It was their assassinations, threats, and mystical activities that influenced researchers in various ways, which gradually made countries begin to take this organization seriously.

Following this organization, the discovery of the Trisolaran civilization, which was already highly concealed, was exposed.

Similarly, it is precisely because of the existence of ETO that humanity has the Second Red Coast Base that it can destroy and obtain information related to the Trisolarans.

Therefore, the greatest wallfacer of mankind is actually ETO.

"But there are no ifs. The existence of ETO itself has been of great help to humanity, not to mention the spies who are lurking within ETO, using you to find a way out for human civilization," Lin Feng said admiringly.

Without ETO, it would have been very difficult for humanity to turn the tide in the war against the Trisolaran invasion. Without ETO, there would have been no subsequent all-human confrontation against the Trisolaran fleet.

Luo Ji will never be valued until he dies, nor will anyone think of deriving the Dark Forest Law from the axioms given by Ye Wenjie.

Zhang Beihai will remain in his own era and be a soldier who protects his country.

Thanks to ETO.

Their existence was indeed unexpected. By analyzing the human genome, we thought we could gain a complete understanding of humanity and the patterns of human thought. Unfortunately, the complexity of human thought is unrelated to matter; different people have different thought patterns, and even if we understand someone's thought patterns, that person may still act in ways that defy those patterns.

The line of text displayed by Zhizi stirred something in Lin Feng's heart.

He still remembered what Mozi, the philosopher who broke through the barriers, had reminded him of: mental models!

It turns out this was the work of the Trisolarans, but they gave it to ETO to use...

"You can already predict the patterns of human thought?" Lin Feng asked calmly.

The sophon displayed the text: "[This was possible a long time ago; you were the first subject of this experiment. The ETO's wallbreakers used this to effectively control your thoughts and actions.]"

"But it's all for naught," Lin Feng said, shrugging.

Yes, the patterns of human thought can only serve as a reference or for short-term predictions. Human thinking is far more complex and random, and mathematics struggles to generalize it. This applies to you, the other Wallfacers, and those who help humanity break through the barriers.

Lin Feng's gaze drifted somewhat; he wondered if the Three-Body Problem could glean anything from the patterns of human thought.

But remembering the warning Mozi, the wallbreaker, had given him, Lin Feng couldn't help but take it to heart, thinking about how to make the Trisolarans give up their in-depth research on the laws of human thought.

It's actually quite easy to terminate a study. You don't need to assassinate anyone; just prove as early as possible that the study is fundamentally flawed and a dead end. Once the Trisolaran world believes this, the study will inevitably be terminated.

Knowing it's a dead end, why insist on investing resources in it? It's like the researcher has too much research funding.

Having made up his mind, Lin Feng said, "I don't agree with your point that short-term predictions are possible."

"If you don't believe me, you can try to find out which parts of our conversations I've been lying to you about."

A few simple words plunged the sphere into a long silence.

Lin Feng guessed that the Trisolarans on the other end were very conflicted, constantly browsing the conversation records between Sophon and Lin Feng to see which sentence was a lie.

If it hasn't been found, it proves that even short-term human predictions cannot be made based on the laws of thought.

As for whether the Trisolaran world will continue to invest resources in studying the laws of human thought, Lin Feng can only say that he has done his best. It is the Trisolaran world's own choice, and he cannot decide it.

After Haruhi's humanization surgery was completed, Lin Feng saw a girl wearing a spacesuit emerge from the room, with a helmet identical to Lin Feng's.

"How are you feeling?" Lin Feng asked with a smile.

Suzumiya tapped her spacesuit helmet. "It feels... strange, different from before, especially the touch."

"Then I'll take you into the spaceship."

"Ah."

As Lin Feng was pulling Liang Gong away from the space city to return to the spaceship, Zhi Zi called out to him.

[Wait a minute, Maple Taylor, could you please tell me which of your statements were lies?]

Lin Feng looked back and said, "Actually, none of those words were lies."

After saying that, Lin Feng added another sentence.

"I lied about that."

【…】

Chapter 240: Which statements were lies?

Lin Feng took Liang Gong aboard the spaceship. The spaceship's interior space was not large. In order to save excess mass, the designers had reduced the living space as much as possible. Lin Feng didn't feel anything when he was traveling alone, but it felt quite crowded after Liang Gong was added.

Haruhi was fascinated by everything inside the spaceship's cockpit, like a child entering an amusement park, and was full of interest in everything inside the spaceship.

"These things must seem very outdated to you, right? Besides, you can see them with a sophon." Lin Feng asked curiously. He couldn't quite understand Liang Gong's feelings. The Trisolarans' technology far surpassed that of humans. Even this spaceship, which had the ability to traverse stellar displacements at sub-light speed, was no different from a broken raft in the eyes of the Trisolaran civilization.

Although antimatter was used, a broken raft is still a broken raft, and a fire stick cannot be considered an internal combustion engine just because it is contaminated with oil and burns. Lin Feng was clear about this.

“Seeing and touching are two different concepts,” the girl replied with a smile.

Lin Feng shook his head, still puzzled, and began making final adjustments to the spaceship in preparation for leaving the Trisolaran system.

"We're about to set sail, let's get ready," Lin Feng said.

What should I do?

Seeing the busy Lin Feng, Liang Gong seemed somewhat at a loss.

"Wait, I will take you to the solar system." Lin Feng replied with a smile.

After saying that, the spaceship began injecting deep-sea acceleration fluid into the cabin, and the liquid quickly covered the heads of Lin Feng and the others.

Seeing Liang Gong pouting in the liquid, Lin Feng guessed that Liang Gong was instinctively holding her breath because it was her first time personally experiencing the deep-sea acceleration fluid, and he couldn't help but laugh.

After some effort, the spaceship's engines started, and under Lin Feng's command, the spaceship set sail from the space city that the Trisolarans had created, heading towards the outside of the Trisolaran star system.

Slightly different from the giant magnetic orbit, this time the spacecraft's acceleration is not as great.

Because after matter and antimatter annihilate each other, mass energy is converted into light energy and heat energy, that is, a pair of matter and antiparticles are transformed into a pair of gamma photons. Gamma photons can shatter atomic nuclei, so it is not advisable for a spacecraft to annihilate a large amount of matter per unit time for acceleration.

This can easily lead to nuclear fission of atoms on the inner wall of the engine, generating excess heat that causes the engine to heat up at a faster rate, making it difficult for the cooling system to keep up with the heating rate.

Lin Feng suggested to the Trisolaran world that they help him modify the engine by adding a strong interaction material to the inner wall, but the Trisolaran world explicitly refused.

Because of this, Lin Feng often muttered to himself how stingy the Three-Body world was.

The spacecraft passed through the nebula belt surrounding the star of the Trisolaran system at the third cosmic velocity, leaving a trail of twelve astronomical units.

"If I go to the solar system, will humans hurt me?" Haruhi suddenly asked.

Lin Feng said with certainty, "Yes, I'm 100% sure that there are definitely quite a few people who think this way."

"Huh? What should I do then?" the girl asked in surprise and worry.

"With me here, everything will be fine."

As he spoke, Lin Feng gave Liang Gong a look that said, "Trust me."

……

“Maple Taylor left with 1314.”

"He's finally gone."

The Trisolaran governors all breathed a sigh of relief when Lin Feng left the Trisolaran system.

Lin Feng's life is not just that of a human being; he is also bound to the power of broadcasting.

Apart from Luo Ji, all the other broadcast points outside the solar system are directly related to Lin Feng.

Barnard's Davis, Ross's 154-star Negan, the wandering fleet commanded by Zhang Beihai, and other fleet worlds, etc.

These extrasolar human forces, through quantum entanglement technology that transmits information in real time, are able to keep track of Lin Feng's situation. If Lin Feng dies in the Trisolaran system, how will these human forces react?

Even though most of these human forces are rational and value the collective life of humanity in the solar system more than Lin Feng's personal life, if there were even one fleet that could broadcast the coordinates of the Trisolaran system via stars, the Trisolaran system would immediately become the most dangerous place in the universe.

Can the Three-Body Problem afford to gamble? No, it can't.

Therefore, in the eyes of the Trisolarans, Lin Feng was no different from a flammable and explosive substance.

“We can’t relax yet. There are too many dangers tied to Feng Taylor. He can’t afford to have any problems. Even if something does happen, it will be after he has safely returned to the solar system,” the military governor said.

The Science Administrator retorted, dissatisfied, "Then why don't you agree to his request and modify his spaceship?"

"These are two different things. Helping Feng Taylor modify the spaceship will only lead to humanity rapidly closing the technological gap with us. The Trisolaran world will also face danger, only this danger will come later. We cannot allow Feng Taylor to bring the technology back to the human world," the military governor said firmly.

The head of state ignored the argument between the two consuls; he was thinking about other things.

At that moment, the Führer suddenly asked, "Which of Feng Taylor's statements were lies? I'd really like to know."

"..."

For a moment, the officials fell silent, and no one responded for a long time.

……

The spaceship Lin Feng was on took half a year to accelerate to 99% of the speed of light and head back towards the solar system.
