Apollo civilization, a class IV civilization with a long history, originated from a hot and humid ocean planet.
Ocean planet is recognized by the galaxy as the most difficult starting point for the development of science and technology.
Although the notorious five-level civilization "Green Star civilization" has been born in this kind of marine planet, there is only one green star civilization with adverse ethnic value in the long history of the Milky Way galaxy. Of the 10000 ocean planets, 9999 are indigenous creatures or lower creatures similar to fish.
These biological communities have a very small probability of producing wisdom, just as dolphins on earth have a certain intelligence. If they are given more time, they may not be able to become smarter.
However, these intelligent creatures are in the ocean, and it is difficult to develop serious science and technology. Naturally, they can't get out of their own planet.
Because such planets usually have oceans hundreds of kilometers deep!
Without any land, the ocean planet is extremely short of metal, and there is not a dry enough environment to ignite the flame. These lives are even less likely to dive hundreds of kilometers to the seabed to dig for minerals.
In this case, it is even more difficult to establish a conventional technology tree.
Only by relying on its own biological smelting method, the naturally powerful species of Green Star civilization can extract elements from seawater and develop a complete set of biotechnology trees, can it go out of its own planet.
But looking at the whole galaxy, there is only one green star civilization. More marine races can't evolve this ability. The path of evolution often has no return. If you choose the wrong path at the beginning, you can't push it down again. The purpose of evolution is to survive, not to develop technology.
The reason why Apollo civilization developed to the present level is that they were inspired by other interstellar civilizations in very distant times!
This inspiration was even hand-in-hand education and guidance until the interstellar age, and then the Apollo civilization successfully became an accessory civilization of the patriarchal civilization.
There are many interstellar alliances, which are produced in this way.
Some fourth level civilizations have such a unique preference. When choosing the "big goal of civilization", they will use curvature technology to traverse planets to obtain more social knowledge, and then try to cultivate some indigenous civilizations with particularly high ethnic value to help themselves.
Including the three major forces around Dyson ball, Walker, arida and so on, many have trained their own affiliated forces, and then gradually developed into a multi-ethnic major league.
These things have never been experienced by human beings, so it is difficult to understand.
After all, mankind has no such leisure and elegance to do such things. The time for new humans to enter the starry sky is still short, and it is too late for their own development.
Apollo civilization can be regarded as a species with very high racial value.
First of all, this species is very smart. Without a good education, the average intelligence is about 120. This is indeed a very smart species.
Secondly, they are born with a long life span. Even without the blessing of science and technology, they can easily survive for 500 years. With life extension technology, two or three thousand years will be no problem.
They have flexible tentacles and can easily pick up filaments thinner than their hair. They are very good workers.
In addition, these guys are naturally very patient and good at some meticulous and boring work.
Such a race value can be regarded as one in a thousand or even one in a thousand in a wise life!
The individuals of Apollo civilization looked strange and looked a bit like squid, but there was a spine inside the body, which could support the complex movement of the body and adapt to life on land to a certain extent.
……
This war star is full of water resources. Many big squids bathe in the room. For them, bathing is the best way to entertain. There are also some working squid, wearing power armor, which is filled with liquid, so that the whole skin will not be excessively dry.
In a large conference room of the Planetary Fortress, several squids took a bath and discussed
"Sir! Our "anubis Planetary Fortress" is expected to reach the target area for the 17th time at astronomical time jhklkh * *, please indicate! "
"Now that you have arrived, continue the task."
"It doesn't seem to make any sense to go on like this, Al, what do you think?"
"Our soldiers have begun to complain, and there... Also began to urge us to withdraw if we really can't, before we cause no loss..."
Several big squids are discussing the current form, and the damn new human civilization has not obeyed yet. This situation has exceeded their expectations!
Because in their impression, the new human civilization is a "mouth gun civilization". Even if Dai senqiu's territory was robbed by a tertiary civilization, it was just a few words.
That's why they wanted to rob the war star.
Yes, what if I robbed a war star? I'm not obedient!
But now it's a little difficult to ride a tiger. It's not to fight or retreat.
"Once withdrawn, the whole civilization will lose nothing, but our status will be over! We will be reviled by the people and step down! "
"Then just... Kill them!" In the dark eyes of a big squid, a fierce light flashed.
"No!"
"Even if we can annihilate each other, what can we get? Besides getting a broken War Star... And then? If we lose too much, we will step down... "
"Yes, this is not the time for the final showdown..."
They have all observed the flash of the antimatter weapon "star killer", and have conducted a series of evaluations on the power of this super weapon.
One of the experts said, "it's just a bluff weapon... How many super bombs can they take out? Do you really think antimatter is a cheap consumable? "
"But as long as this weapon exceeds our expectations, our losses will become unbearable."
"If the loss is too great, we will lose our present position!"
Several big squids are arguing about it.
Very annoying, really annoying, the current situation is like a thick fog, it is difficult to find the way forward.
Because Apollo civilization was forcibly supported by alien interstellar civilization, there was not much of its own ideology and culture. Their political system even remained in a fairly primitive feudal era, with the distinction of nobility and civilians.
These big squids are the highest nobles of Apollo civilization, equivalent to the consuls of human Athens.
The social system is simply capitalism, and then it is covered up with the banner of "free politics". Such a regime naturally does not have much cohesion.
Their position is not stable, and their huge productive forces cover up some class contradictions, which does not mean that there are no contradictions. There are many squids staring at them, hoping they make mistakes!
The development of pulling up seedlings and encouraging development has made the foundation of the whole civilization unstable, and all science, technology and culture are foreign. The patriarchal civilization controls the culture of the whole civilization and the hearts of the people.
The most important thing is that the Apollo civilization is still divided!
Since ancient times, there have been several different political forces in this civilization, which are hostile to each other and full of hatred.
