"Wow!" Hao Zhi lost his confidence and felt devastated.

However, Wang Yanke brightened his eyes: "just now you said... Some civilizations can reach the immortal level in hundreds of years?"

"Yes, as I said before, the individual differences between each civilization are quite huge.

We should know that each race is limited by physical conditions and environment, and its development speed is completely different. Some races can only develop slowly and evenly, but some very few races with high innovation and learning have an amazing evolutionary development speed.

Fortunately, you humans belong to the latter. In the past 100 years, you have gone through the road of other similar civilizations, which need to go for 5000 years or even longer... "

"Is there anything faster than us?" Hao Zhi lost his childish temper again and kept asking meaningless extreme questions.

EK looked up at the distance and pondered for a moment. It seemed that he was deciding whether to say this. After a long time, he quietly threw out a heavy bomb: "according to the historical records of our civilization, we once met a divine civilization. On the time scale of your earth, it took only one year to evolve from reptile civilization to divine civilization..."

a year!!!

Everyone suspected that they had heard wrong and looked at each other with their mouths open. A year?

A short year?

Wang Yanke searched his database and found no possible answer: "how is this possible?

It takes so long to build a high-rise building, not to mention building a huge fleet that can carry out interstellar navigation!

Not to mention how to realize the development of technology, it is impossible to prepare enough fuel and energy for space navigation!

Not to mention a year, even if it is thousands of years, it may not be realized! "

EK smiled mysteriously: "yes, building a 100 story building with an elevator in one year is also an impossible goal for an ant's understanding ability..."

Everyone is silent. Indeed, the limitations of their position limit human's vision of the universe. The universe is too big and any strange things can happen.

Unless we go out, go far and see more places, we can continue to develop. Unfortunately, mankind has not waited for the first step towards the universe, but for the destruction that came first.

"You just said that the blood moon aliens invaded the earth just because they mastered the secret key of our human civilization. Does that mean they are the same type of creatures as us?"

"That's for sure. According to the theory I just said, civilizations that can have aggressive wars are generally below the demon level. We can infer that the cosmic speed of the blood moon should be around one thousandth of the speed of light.

Of course, the degree of their civilization depends on two points. First, the home star of the blood moon man, that is, the distance from the starting point to the earth.

Second, when they started and how long it took them to reach the earth.

Knowing these two points, you can finally confirm what the other party's purpose of coming to the solar system is. In fact, it is just one of two purposes. One is to invade the earth and become their permanent residence.

The second is to pass through the solar system and exploit solar resources to become their energy reserve in the next stage of aerospace.

According to the current situation, we can know that if they want to exploit solar resources, they can be regarded as Earth people do not exist. After all, earth human's aerospace ability is basically equal to No.

If they do not mine the sun, it means that they do not have the technology to mine stellar energy, let alone the ability to continue their long voyage.

Therefore, the purpose of its adventure to the earth must be to invade the earth rather than exploit the sun. Therefore, their navigation ability must be very primitive, which proves that the blood moon civilization is only below the level of demon civilization.

For this low-level civilization, the long journey across the permanent galaxy is more dangerous than the war itself.

So their home star must be very close to the earth. I can even assert that it is within 20 light-years!

You know, in our galaxy, from a macro point of view, the star density in each region is basically very uniform. Generally, the distance between stars is about 4 to 8 light-years.

But from a local point of view, the distance difference between stars is still relatively large.

Let's take the boldest assumption as the premise: where there are stars, there is life.

Then, the nearest star to the earth is 5 light-years away from the earth. On the cosmic scale, it is almost face to face.

According to the most optimistic guess, the demon level has the navigation ability to start at the speed of one thousandth of light. Considering the time required to accelerate and decelerate, according to the uniform speed, even if he starts now, it will take 5000 years to reach the earth!

In other words, the blood moon should have started as early as 5000 years ago. Since then, the earth has been on their menu!

Therefore, the technology of blood moon civilization is at least 1000 years ahead of you. It is a very polite statement after the rapid development of human beings on your earth in recent 100 years.

"5000 years ago? An ambush that had been lurking for 5000 years! Almost when the ape just stood up and was ready to go out of the grassland, a collimator had aimed at his eyebrows!" Hao Zhi's eyes darkened, so far away.

At that time, ancient Egypt had just formed a slavery country, there were just large and small tribes along the Yellow River in China, the era of Yao, Shun and Yu had just begun, and they couldn't even plant land

The wise man EK shook his head helplessly:

"Maybe you think it's far away, but on a cosmic scale, it's just a decision made before the blink of an eye.

However, it is not easy to make this decision!

After all, every planet has its own unique living environment, and every life has evolved in its own unique living environment.

We may not need you to adapt. No one can be sure whether each other's environment is suitable for their own survival. Even if the ultraviolet content of the sunlight scattered by the same looking stars is 50 nm higher, it may be a fatal environment for a race.

People living in this sunlight will have erythema, itching, blisters, edema, eye pain, tears, etc. in serious cases, they can also cause skin cancer, then keratitis and cataract. Finally, there will be biological gene mutation caused by ultraviolet light, and even genetic variation will be affected.

In the light source generated by stars, this error is almost certain to occur. "

"That is to say, the alien life that invaded the earth this time has a similar life structure with us. They have determined that the earth is suitable for their living environment!" general Gant suddenly realized, "that's why you say that they have mastered the secret of our civilization, so they decided to come!"

"At present, I'm afraid so. You are also carbon based creatures. You also need sunlight and water. You also live within the temperature limit that can keep water liquid, and so on

Life's requirements for its own living environment are extremely harsh. The probability of such collision is pitifully low. You people on earth are not very lucky... "

The wise man's eyes showed comforting eyes, but it didn't help.

All the people became frustrated after the helpless answer appeared. Their luck was really bad. How could they be so unlucky to meet the same type of aliens

However, Wang Yanke didn't have the time to be upset. She was almost eager to seize the opportunity to acquire knowledge and put forward a question she thought was the most important:

"Then, can I ask, if all civilizations develop freely and grow indefinitely, what is the value of civilization? Or what is the ultimate goal of this development?"

"I said, walk!

Walking is the ultimate goal of civilization development! "

Wang Yanke added: "I mean, does this walk... Only include walking in space?"

"Hehe, little girl, you have cleverly captured the key of the problem. There are only two ways to walk and reach our set goal.

The first is the change of walking mode. For example, you have to go from one place to another. In order to reach the goal as soon as possible, taking a bus or plane is the innovation of walking mode. Corresponding to civilization itself, it is to continuously develop various scientific and technological capabilities, continuously improve your own sailing speed and span a larger space.

The second is to span time, because if you want to go from one place to another, and even to the end of the universe, it is the same. Under the premise of the reform of walking mode, you still need to have more time.

Because even if you walk the same way and measure the land by your feet alone, you can reach your destination sooner or later.

Here, we encounter a very stingy place of the cosmic mother, that is, she has created the greatest inequality in the universe, that is, the unfairness that the life of life itself is too short compared with the external world on a large spatial scale.

Life span is the biggest bottleneck that affects us to explore the ultimate mystery of the universe. No biological civilization can escape this ultimate barrier. Even the development of light speed navigation is to avoid this bottleneck by using the laws of cosmic physics.

So from a certain point of view, civilization, the only thing that needs to compete with it, is time.

With more time, technology will not be a problem, and space will no longer be a problem, but the sad fact is just the opposite

A star has a life span of billions of years, a star system is like this, and the Milky way is even longer.

Even a mountain on the earth exists for millions of years. Even a stone, a grain of soil and a grain of sand may exist for hundreds of millions of years.

However, the longest life span of life is only a thousand years, and most of them are only a few decades. Why?

Is it a natural "rationality"? The universe is extremely "extravagant" and "generous" from all angles. Why is it so harsh for the life body bred by itself?

What motives and secrets are hidden behind this?

So I think the ultimate goal of civilization is to bridge the time gap between life itself and the external world. Only by prolonging the time that one's own life can have as much as possible, can we cross the "injustice" and finally have the opportunity to approach the truth of the universe

"Can you teach us science and technology enough to defeat each other?" general Gantt asked suddenly with hope.

EK smiled helplessly: "you don't need more powerful weapons at all. Nuclear weapons are enough for this war

If the other party's purpose is to occupy your planet, then when you destroy it to the point where it has no survival value at all, the aliens will naturally leave. Who will fight this boring battle when the cost of staying is not cost-effective? "

"Alas, the final result is still such a result. General Xu zhe has long predicted that if he can't fight, there will be only one way to destroy himself!" Hao Zhi sighed and shook his head.

We fell into a long silence again. Emotionally, we really can't accept such a result. It seems easy to say. We just need to press a small button.

However, how should we explain to future generations?

When the planet inherited from our ancestors is handed over to the next generation, there are only a lot of holes after nuclear pollution?

In the silence, Wang Yanke suddenly asked in a low voice, "sage Ike, can I ask, what stage is your civilization... In?"

Hearing this question, the image of the white robed wise man smiled strangely and proudly: "our civilization is now on the edge of fairy civilization, but it has not broken through the final bottleneck and belongs to the upper limit of demon civilization!"

Everyone's faces immediately showed a look of envy and worship, and they bowed their heads and talked. In their life, they had the opportunity to explore the mystery of the universe with such a high civilization. It was a worthwhile trip!

Wang Yanke pondered and carefully asked a question: "then, can I ask... Will you invade us?"

The wise man quickly burst out a long string of laughter. The laughter seemed to have been prepared before Wang Yanke's question was raised. There was no process of thinking at all. It was a kind of false falsehood that broke out immediately. It seemed a little dissolute. It echoed in the stereo box, and it even seemed a little creepy

"Ha ha... As I just said, the earth may be like a pool filled with strong acid for us and our planet for you. Who will live in that place?

Our demon civilization has long been far away from your spiral arms and traveled to other distant galaxies. Now I talk to you is just an integrated information repository left by our civilization.

In other words, I'm just a computer, and the conversation with you is just the retrieval of my internal knowledge and information according to your questions... "

Wang Yanke turned to look at general Gantt: "that is to say, what we are facing now is not instant messaging?"

"Yes!" general Gantt nodded. "Our dialogue with the wise is like a simple information extraction. Similar to entering one plus one on a calculator, it will also tell you by voice that the result is two."

Wang Yanke nodded thoughtfully: "Oh, that is to say, some limited questions can also be asked?"

"What is the problem of restriction?" Hao Zhi immediately became curious.

Wang Yanke did not answer him, but turned around and faced the white robed wise man: "please tell me, what is the ultimate truth of the universe you understand?"

The white robed wise man was laughing, but the expression on his face was frozen because of this problem. Then, the light that formed the projection of his body began to blur and chaos, and then quickly shook. The image of the wise man also began to flicker, twisted from the image of the hazy holy light into a white light and shadow, like a pool of melted wax.

With a "whoosh", the system was turned off, the intelligent lighting system was restored automatically, and the whole hall lit up.

Hao Zhi reluctantly asked the general, "what's going on? The last question hasn't been answered yet?"

Gant smiled bitterly: "it's useless. Obviously, when the wise civilization passed us the computer drawings, it has erased the information belonging to this section. He can answer almost all the questions we asked, but when he encounters this problem, he will automatically close it. I've tried many times, without exception!"

Wang Yanke pressed his fingers heavily on the center of his eyebrows, thought for a while, and then slowly said, "no, it shouldn't be erased, but they don't know at all!

I guess what he said, the race that jumped into divine civilization within a year, may have mastered the ultimate secret of the universe. Only by mastering that secret, can it have an instant insight and complete the essential change! "

"Oh?" general Gantt came to his senses. "Can you guess what the ultimate secret is?"

Wang Yanke shook his head: "how can I guess? As a human being, all I have is the eyes of ants looking at the building. As the wise man said, unless I go out and go to the edge of the universe, I can see the sea area outside the truth of the universe. It's futile to stand on the earth and think about the universe!"

"Alas, if human beings can master the ultimate secret, they don't have to worry about the current problems. Unfortunately, it is an extravagant hope after all..." Gant sighed.

"No, there is still a little hope!" Wang Yanke smiled mysteriously. "One of us may be able to peep into this secret!"

In everyone's suspicious eyes, Wang Yanke slowly turned his eyes to Hao Zhi
