The Wallfacer: Everyone wants to break through my wall.

Unable to bear the look in Tang Tao's eyes, Philo gave in and told him the idea she had just come up with.

Chapter 295 The follow-up plan can begin

"...How about we try the other way around? Low-energy particles exhibit strong wave-like properties. The microscopic and macroscopic worlds are different. It's difficult to observe all the physical information of a single particle in the macroscopic world, but in the microscopic world, sensors can be arranged very densely."

"We managed to capture a heavy atom, fix its position with a molecular lattice, arrange a ring of very small sensors around the heavy atom, and then emit a single photon of the lowest energy level toward the heavy atom. By using the wave nature of the photon to interact with the sensors, we can complete the physical detection of the atom's interior."

Tang Tao fell into deep thought, considering the feasibility of Philo's idea.

After much thought, it seems feasible, and it consumes very few resources because the photons used do not need to be of very high energy levels; the lowest frequency infrared light will suffice.

"That's a good idea. I'll have someone try it out later."

"Thank you so much this time. If you ever return to the macroeconomics field, I'll treat you to a big meal."

Tang Tao looked at Philo with gratitude. Although Philo had only given a framework, it was enough. Scientific research is most afraid of getting stuck in a dead end, so a flash of inspiration is all the more precious.

Philo said, "Let's make this clear beforehand, don't tell anyone else. This is my idea for you. I finally found such a good, easy job."

"Yes, I won't tell anyone." Tang Tao nodded, but added in his mind.

But I can write it for others to see. It would be a real waste not to make the most of such a clever mind.

……

“Philo William?”

Ding Yi was looking at the report that Tang Tao had sent over during the meeting; he had just learned about this person.

But Davis was no stranger to this person; he had noticed him long ago and paid him some attention, and now that attention had increased.

Davis explained, "He is Dorland William's cousin, and according to Dorland's feedback, his research on microscopic humans was inspired by his cousin."

A core member of the Taylor faction smiled and teased the patriarch of the William family, "It seems the William family has been producing a lot of talented people lately. Patriarch William, that's not very kind of you. You're keeping such good people hidden from everyone."

The head of the William family shook his head. "This brat is hardly a talent. Apart from being a bit smarter and having more ideas than others, all he thinks about is being lazy and having a good time. He even keeps saying that this is the core of Mr. Taylor's ideas."

He said this, but the pride in his words was impossible to hide, and others could even see that he was showing off.

It's just like parents showing off to other parents that their children got perfect scores in all subjects.

The others weren't bothered, after all, it's only natural, and Philo William does indeed possess great abilities.

Davis suggested to the head of the William family, "Isn't scientific research just a matter of lacking that spark? Would you mind transferring him to the research department?"

He had this plan after learning that the microscopic humans were related to Philo William, and now he was just bringing it up as a matter of course.

With a member of the family being given an important position, how could the head of the William family refuse? Naturally, he agreed to Davis's proposal.

"Doing this would probably be even more painful than killing him, but I agree with this arrangement."

"But it's good to do this. This brat should have taken on the responsibility of being a human being a long time ago."

With the help of a bunch of high-ranking members of the Taylor Group, Philo William's file began to surge in a direction that Philo herself did not want at all.

……

The morning sun shines on the sea, and waves crash against the beach one after another on the azure ocean. The coconut palms sway their branches, and the shade of the trees sways in the bright sunlight.

This is the tranquility of Earth, but the world four light-years away is not so peaceful.

A few days had passed since Davis reported to Lin Feng that humanity had begun exploring the atomic realm. Lin Feng had just woken up when he received the news from Liang Gong.

"Hey, we did it!" The girl exclaimed excitedly, looking at the sleepy-eyed Lin Feng.

Lin Feng scratched his somewhat messy hair and replied without joy or sorrow, "It's a bit late. I received Davis's report a few days ago about how microscopic humans are using their microscopic advantages to explore the atomic realm. I originally thought they would make a choice sooner."

Suzumiya suddenly realized, "So it's because of their exploration of the atomic realm. I was wondering why they suddenly made this choice."

She was also wondering why the Trisolaran homeworld, which had been silent for so long, had suddenly shown results in the last few days.

It turns out that humanity's exploration of the atomic realm became the final straw that broke the camel's back.

"What succeeded? What were your plans?"

Edith, wearing an apron, came out of the kitchen carrying breakfast for the three of them.

Liang Gong replied with a smile, "This vacation is part of a plan targeting those left behind on the Trisolaran homeworld. I didn't have much hope for it, since the impact is very minor and we are too far away from them."

"The passerby, on the other hand, was full of confidence. I don't know where his inexplicable confidence came from."

As she spoke, Liang Gong couldn't help but look at Lin Feng with a strange expression. At first, she had no confidence in this plan at all, because as a Trisolaran, she understood better what kind of thinking her compatriots on their home planet were like.

"This is a win-win situation. It won't harm either of us, so why not?" Lin Feng shrugged, completely unsurprised, as if everything was under control.

"So what exactly are you planning?"

Edith was completely intrigued by the cryptic exchange between the two men and wanted to know what they had done.

“We’ve planned a rebellion, a rebellion on the Trisolaran homeworld,” Ryougo said.

Suzumiya continued, "For a long time, we have been negotiating with them. Now the negotiations have been successful, and they have instigated a rebellion and established a new ruling regime."

Edith paused, then asked in surprise, "Negotiations? When did they start?"

Liang Gong said, "It started the moment we came to Earth for vacation. We use our every move to negotiate with that group in the Trisolaran world who are dissatisfied with the status quo."

Lin Feng added, “Actually, this method would not have been possible in the past because the Trisolaran ruling class was always on the Trisolaran home planet, and the Trisolarans’ thinking was transparent. If they had any crooked thoughts, they would be discovered and then judged. It would be impossible to stir up internal strife.”

"But things are different now. The main body of the Trisolaran world has moved away from its home planet. Even if the Trisolarans who remain have transparent minds, it is not easy to detect if they have any other wicked thoughts."

"Moreover, even if they betrayed the Trisolaran civilization, it would be insignificant, because the coordinates of the Trisolaran star system have been broadcast, and their destruction is only a matter of time. The decision-makers will not pay too much attention to these survivors."

Lin Feng knew that his subsequent plans could begin.

Chapter 296 Pigs Really Can Climb Trees

At the Taylor Group headquarters, Davis, who was in a good mood because he had promoted a rare talent to a research position a few days ago, almost popped his eyes out when he saw a document passed to him by Lin Feng.

From the original Davis who died of natural causes until now, the cyborg Davis has lived for nearly half a century and has seen all sorts of ups and downs, but this document is something he never dreamed of.

The contents of the document were simple—the Taylor system had formed an alliance with the new Trisolaran regime on the Trisolaran homeworld.

The short content contained a huge amount of information, leaving Davis completely bewildered.

Once he came to his senses, Davis immediately used quantum communication to contact Lin Feng, who was still on Earth.

"This...you're not kidding?!"

"Do you think I'm joking?"

Lin Feng, who was in the communication segment, was not surprised by Davis's reaction. Rather, it was normal for someone who did not understand the cause and effect to react this way.

After all, the chain of suspicion between the two races was broken so quietly, just like hearing that pigs can climb trees, which is really unbelievable.

After receiving confirmation from Lin Feng, Davis was stunned for a moment. After recovering from the shock, he continued to ask questions.

Are they trustworthy?

"You should try to think about this from their perspective," Lin Feng said.

Lin Feng's meaning was very straightforward: the Trisolarans on the Trisolaran home planet made this choice out of self-interest.

In a world of absolute rationality, self-interest is everything. Even the Dark Forest Law is a choice made based on the self-interest of a civilization. If every race did not care about its own interests, then there would be no Dark Forest.

Davis nodded. "I understand. What should we do next?"

Lin Feng replied, "Normal diplomacy will suffice. We and they will break down the chain of suspicion and form a unified alliance."

……

Since humanity broadcast the coordinates of the Trisolaran galaxy using gravitational waves, various plans have been formulated for the upcoming Black Forest attack on the solar system. Among these plans, only atomization is a sure thing, at least in Lin Feng's view.

While the light-speed spaceship in the original work was impressive, it was still too large. In Lin Feng's opinion, its concealment was much worse. And if it were just an atom, it wouldn't be easy to find it in the vast universe.

Furthermore, the strong and weak forces are dominant at the atomic nucleus scale, which means that an atomized human body would have the same strength as a water droplet, a material strength advantage that cannot be matched by the macroscopic scale.

Because of its extremely small mass, accelerating to near the speed of light would be a very easy thing.

Two hundred years ago, humans were able to use particle accelerators to accelerate protons to more than 99.99% of the speed of light. Atomized humans no longer need large accelerators; they can easily achieve near-light-speed interstellar displacement by using particles naturally emitted by stars as a springboard.

The most crucial point is that no flight path is left behind. From this perspective, when the microscopic level reaches the atomic level, it begins to have an advantage that cannot be matched by the speed of light curvature.

The curvature of light leaves a trail, which is equivalent to demonstrating its existence to the universe. According to the principles of offense and defense, 'non-existence' is obviously safer than 'existence'. The former can simply shield itself from all attacks in the universe through the rules of the universe.

Therefore, Lin Feng hopes that humanity can achieve atomization and then escape to the universe.

People influenced by the Dark Forest Theory are filled with unease about the universe. Lin Feng is the same as many people in the solar system who are afraid of the stars, or even more so, because he has seen God's script.

The prerequisite for the advancement of human civilization and technology is the accumulation of knowledge, which can be achieved in two main ways: one is by learning from others, and the other is by observing natural phenomena and summarizing and organizing systematic knowledge from the information in physical phenomena.

Of the two methods, the former is easier to absorb and utilize quickly than the latter, because the former is readily available knowledge that does not require further summarization and organization, while the latter requires a large amount of data to ensure that there are no errors.

Who knows when the Black Forest strike will arrive? The hunters of the universe won't give humanity much time for scientific research. So, in Lin Feng's mind, only one option remained: to obtain the atomization-related technology from the Trisolarans.

We should directly ask the Trisolarans for the relevant technology; only a fool would hand it over to humanity.

Using radio threats to coerce the Trisolaran civilization into handing over relevant technologies is no longer effective. The deterrence system has now collapsed. Moreover, unlike Cheng Xin's case, the radio broadcast had not yet been launched, the coordinates of the Trisolaran star system had not been fully exposed, and the Trisolaran civilization was only preparing to escape, not yet having begun a full-scale escape.

Therefore, Lin Feng could still get the Three-Body Problem to sit down and discuss some reasonable demands, but there is no room for negotiation now.

The Trisolaran civilization would even be happy if humanity would quickly repeat the broadcast of the coordinates, as those who shout the loudest are generally more likely to attract attention. If the humans in the solar system could attract most of the attention of the nearby hunters, the Trisolaran civilization's escape would actually be safer and smoother.

The so-called feint attack is pretty much what this means.

Lin Feng was able to perceive this mainly because the Trisolarans adopted a completely different approach than the original work. Even though the entire civilization was on the run, they still left some sophons behind to continue interfering with the scientific research of humans in the solar system, instead of transferring all the sophons away.

It should be understood that the Trisolaran civilization is capable of anything to ensure its continuation; the continuation of civilization is its top priority. What would be the point of deliberately leaving sophons behind to continue interfering with human scientific research in the solar system?

revenge?

This is highly irrational and completely inconsistent with their willingness to risk everything for the continuation of civilization.

Even if it were truly for revenge, doing so would not be able to wipe out humanity. Humans in the Fleet World and other human colonies have already fled to the depths of space. It would be meaningless for the humans in the solar system to be destroyed by the hunters. Human civilization would not be destroyed as a result.

It's even possible that the Trisolaran civilization's actions could provoke a broadcast retaliation from the humans of the solar system.

Therefore, it is easy to deduce further that the fleeing Trisolaran civilization hopes to see humanity broadcast again. At this time, if humanity broadcasts again to retaliate against Trisolaris, it would be more beneficial than harmful to the fleeing Trisolarans.

Because it is beneficial, the Trisolaran civilization, while on the run, deliberately continues to use sophons to block human scientific research in the solar system.

Humanity will most likely choose to retaliate, and the method of retaliation will inevitably be broadcasting, because this is the only proven means for humanity to threaten the Trisolaran civilization. After the humans in the solar system broadcast frequently, most of the hunters' attention will be drawn to the solar system, thereby covering up the fact that the Trisolarans have fled.
