His chief secretary reported to him something that left him almost in complete disbelief.
The optical telescope equipped on the Okaro spacecraft photographed a creation suspected of being a level 17 civilization in the low-Earth orbit of the planet occupied by the survivors of the native civilization!
In the civilization level classification method of Moyun Litar civilization, they classified the highest level civilization within the theoretical coverage as level 32. Civilizations higher than level 32 are collectively referred to as "god" level civilizations.
In this entire classification system, our own civilization is classified as the 15th level civilization.
However, the 16th-level civilization and the 17th-level civilization seem to be only one level apart, but they have undergone earth-shaking changes. The strength of the two levels of civilization is almost different.
Because the 17th-level civilization has mastered the technology of non-working propulsion, while the 16th-level civilization is still at the peak of ion propulsion!
Our own civilization has not even reached the peak of ion propulsion!
"This, how is this possible?!"
But observational data does not lie.
In the photo, Villagash clearly saw the huge spaceship that was suspected to be the creation of the 17th level civilization.
The spacecraft was very huge, even bigger than the Okaro spacecraft he was driving.
It has an irregular shape as a whole, with its longest point reaching a height of 33 kilometers, and its width and height reaching 16 and 11 kilometers.
If it is just huge, it does not necessarily mean that it is the creation of a higher-level civilization. The most critical factor is that scientists have noticed the shadow of medium-free propulsion technology from this spacecraft!
The tail of this spacecraft does not have a huge, high-temperature resistant jet. Instead, there are some densely packed complex equipment. They sealed the entire bottom of the spacecraft, leaving no gaps.
How to spray working fluid without gaps? However, the only thing that can propel the spacecraft forward without injecting working fluid is the non-working fluid propulsion technology.
Our own civilization has also been researching the technology of non-working fluid propulsion, and the technical route has basically been determined at present, which is to use certain characteristics of vacuum quantum oscillation to "draw" thrust from the vacuum to propel the spacecraft. The purpose of moving forward. However, Villagash has seen the concept drawing of a thruster made by scientists using vacuum quantum oscillation, and its appearance is similar to what he is seeing now!
Although there are still some differences between the two sides, our side is just a conceptual diagram and has not actually produced it. How can it be no different from the real thing?
It's strange that there is no difference.
"Then, is that a spacecraft of a level 17 civilization? Why haven't we discovered it before? Huh? The medium-free propulsion technology does not eject working medium, so it is extremely concealable. We did not conduct a full-sky scan and did not discover it in advance. It can also be explained. It’s just, just, what are they doing here?”
Villagash's mind was spinning rapidly.
The secretary, the deputy captain of the spacecraft, the industrial director, the mining director, the sub-personnel director and other senior spacecraft officials all looked at him eagerly.
This situation now really exceeds everyone's expectations. What to do now depends on Villagash’s decision.
In this rapid thinking, an idea suddenly jumped out.
"Is this the survivor of the local civilization lying to me? Based on the speculation of their own technological system and the characteristics of a level 17 civilization, they deliberately built an empty spaceship to try to scare us away?"
The development of science and technology shows systematic characteristics. That is to say, although some early and backward civilizations are still far away from mastering advanced technology, this does not prevent them from knowing some characteristics of advanced civilizations.
Just like the Moyun Litar civilization is only a level 15 civilization, this does not prevent them from inferring some characteristics of a level 32 civilization. Things like the folding of space inside the spacecraft, a sun or a giant black hole inside a small spacecraft.
From this aspect, the Moyun Litar civilization also has a certain ability to camouflage.
In particular, the survivor group of this local civilization is almost certain to know the technological level of its own civilization.
This cannot be concealed.
How could such a bright ion jet be concealed?
So, is it possible...
Villagash's blood-driven organs beat violently.
He wanted to try it out, to test it out, but he didn't have enough courage.
This possibility certainly exists. But what if, what if that spaceship is really a spacecraft of level 17 civilization?
They must have discovered their own side. But now, the other party remains silent and does not launch an attack on itself. This means they may not be malicious. If your side launches the test first, what if you anger the other side?
Isn’t that asking for trouble?
After thinking for a long time, Villagash finally made up his mind. He gritted his teeth and gave the order.
"Enable full power deceleration. Don't get closer to this star system until we figure this out!"
There is still quite a long distance between the two sides at this moment. If you turn on full power deceleration, you will have time to stop before approaching the opponent.
"Order engineers and scientists to come to me and do their best to eavesdrop on the communications of the survivors of that local civilization. If this spacecraft with the characteristics of a level 17 civilization was forged by them, I don't believe there is no communication between them! As long as If you can find evidence, then hit me! Kill them with one shot!"
"yes!"
This arrangement is quite sound. The owners of the spacecraft also felt a little more at ease.
At this moment, planet Sedna, underground temporary command post. Under the silent gaze of the Civilization Committee and the War Committee, Zhao Changxing looked serious.
At this moment, the message we had previously sent to this huge spacecraft that "suddenly" appeared in the low-Earth orbit of the Sedna star has received a reply.
That information is presented on the big screen in front of you.
"Dear unknown civilization, we are a human civilization that has lived in the solar system for generations.
Because of a disaster, we had no choice but to escape to the edge of this galaxy and thrive here.
We are a peace-loving race and hope to live in peace with outsiders.
May I ask, where does your civilization come from? What happens in the solar system where we have lived for generations? Or, is there anything we can do to help?
Attachment: The following is the dictionary information of our civilization, which will help your civilization understand the words and language of our civilization. "
After this, there is a reply message from the other party.
“Where we come from, you don’t have to know.
We have only one purpose in coming to this star system, and that is to gather all the resources of this star system.
We are happy to make your civilization a slave to our civilization and help us complete the task of gathering the resources of the star system. If you refuse, we will have to destroy you. If you agree, you will experience the joy of becoming a slave to a powerful civilization.
Now, tell me your decision. Life or death, the decision is yours. "
Faced with this reply, all the high-level civilization officials in the temporary underground command post on Sedna looked calm.
Zhao Changxing calmly responded to this message.
“Our human civilization is a weak one, but we have a glorious tradition that goes back thousands of years.
Our tradition does not allow our civilization to become a slave to other civilizations.
Sorry to disappoint you.
We want you to leave our star system. If you insist on doing this, our civilization will perish on the road of resistance. "
Zhao Changxing sent this message calmly, and then picked up the communicator. The next moment, his voice appeared in the ears of all soldiers and civilians.
"This foreign civilization is here to enslave us! Compatriots, if you don't want to be slaves, then resist! It is better to die in resistance than to become slaves!"
"I order, attack, attack, attack!"
"attack!"
Countless people with sad and angry expressions but still calm and determined faces shouted this word at the same time. The next moment, countless electromagnetic guns equipped on the land and space of Sedna roared simultaneously.
At this moment, at least tens of millions of high-speed electromagnetic gun projectiles, accompanied by high-energy lasers, and numerous large, medium, and small interstellar missiles, roared towards this unimaginably huge spacecraft.
But the next moment, something unexpected happened.
People saw that, for some unknown reason, the destructive torrent composed of thousands of electromagnetic gun projectiles was suddenly deflected when it approached the huge spaceship. It flew past the edge of the spacecraft.
There are tens of millions of projectiles, but none of them can hit it!
Not only that, the hundreds of high-energy laser irradiations did not even leave any traces on the outer shell of the spacecraft!
The countless large, medium and small interstellar missiles loaded with powerful explosives in their warheads, for some unknown reason, exploded inexplicably before they got close enough to threaten the huge spacecraft.
They exploded into bright fireworks in the vast and deep space. But it didn't cause any damage to the opponent.
The enemy is powerful beyond everyone's imagination.
It just stayed quietly in the orbit of Sedna, neither accelerating nor decelerating, nor did it make any response to the tide-like attack.
It seems that it is using this method to promote its strength to the weak human civilization in front of it, trying to destroy people's will to resist through this method.
"Report to base! Our electromagnetic gun cannot hit the target, cannot hit the target!"
"Report to base! The interstellar missile is invalid!"
"Oh my god, what kind of technology is this? What should we do? What should we do?"
"Is our civilization about to be destroyed? Woohoo..."
"I would rather die standing than live on my knees! Fight!"
At this moment, the atmosphere of Sedna was filled with despair.
Another wave of radio waves was launched from the huge spaceship.
"You and your civilization have no chance... Your attack will not threaten us at all. Surrender, you will experience the joy of becoming a slave..."
