Sophon manipulated the door of small universe No. 647 and found a level three environment.
The three returned the mass of small universe No. 647, and when they returned to the big universe again, they also came directly to this third-level environment.
Tomoko had warned them before that Level 3 was very bad and dangerous!
This so-called harshness and danger actually only account for a small part of environmental factors. The greater danger comes from other civilizations.
Because the current level three environment is very lively.
When the sea is about to dry up, the remaining small pool will naturally attract all the fish that used to live in the sea to flock here.
After all, ants still live in vain, let alone a civilization?
Until the last moment, no one is willing to die before others.
"In this area with a diameter of less than a hundred light years, there are at least tens of thousands of traces of civilization. We must be careful!"
When entering the third level environment, Tomoko immediately reminded her three human friends.
Yes, her relationship with Cheng Xin, Guan Yifan, and Liang Bing had now become friends.
After small universe 647 ceases to exist, she will no longer be a housekeeper or the like.
Moreover, with the humanity she currently possesses, she can indeed be viewed as a human being, not an intelligence.
"The specific number of them, whether it is ten thousand or tens of thousands; what is the scientific and technological strength of civilization, we currently have no way of knowing."
Tomoko continued to add and analyze: "However, with so many civilizations gathering together, there is no trace of any war."
"It can be seen that this level three environment is still in a harmonious state."
"In other words, there is some absolute power restricting them, and no one dares to start a war..."
Her analysis is also very reasonable.
This level three environment is very lively, and there is no chaos in the bustle. Basically, every civilization stays in its own designated area.
If this kind of thing were in other universes, it might still happen.
But this is the Three-Body Universe?
Isn’t it a bit magical?
Or maybe those old guys suddenly changed their temperaments?
After all, according to the behavior of the old civilizations in this universe, if they don't meet, they will be beaten to death. If they meet, they will definitely be more life-and-death.
When something goes wrong, it becomes a monster, so Sophon concluded that there must be something restricting those civilizations.
"What do you think is limiting them?"
"Is it the Returners, or the group of Returners who were broadcasting in the universe before?"
Guan Yifan asked.
Although he said that he studied the universe with a diameter of 16 billion light years, his understanding of the universe and advanced civilizations only scratched the surface!
Moreover, the current understanding of so-called advanced civilizations is only that of the Singers civilization that once threw two-way foils into the solar system, as well as the Zeroers, and those intelligent groups calling for the return movement.
"If it's them, why are they doing this?"
Cheng Xin also asked, "In other words, why are you doing this now?"
Her doubt is also very simple. If in this third-level environment, the existence that threatens other civilizations is the Zero Returners and the intelligent groups calling for the return movement.
Then, it can be proved that they have absolute strength and can establish an order in the universe that can make the universe peaceful.
Otherwise, at least tens of thousands of civilizations in this third-level environment would not be so peaceful.
After all, when the three-dimensional universe was still in a healthy state, these civilizations fought because the total amount of matter in the universe remained unchanged.
Now in the third-level environment, which is only less than a hundred light years in diameter, the total amount of matter is even less, not to mention.
Also due to the presence of suspicion;
A civilization cannot judge whether another civilization is a good civilization or an evil civilization.
A civilization cannot judge whether another civilization thinks it is a good civilization or an evil civilization.
A civilization cannot determine whether another civilization will attack its own civilization.
A civilization cannot judge whether another civilization is benevolent or malicious toward itself.
A civilization cannot tell whether another civilization considers itself to be well-intentioned or malicious.
A civilization cannot judge whether another civilization is benevolent or malicious toward it.
Even though the distance is now closer, can the chain of suspicion really be eliminated through communication?
Cultural and species differences have led to an indestructible chain of suspicion between civilizations, which cannot be eliminated in a short time.
There is even a saying in human civilization that says: People who are not my race must have different minds.
Therefore, if there is no power that can absolutely restrict these civilizations in this level three environment, even if they will not dare to fight because of the too many civilizations around them, they are afraid that when they fight with a certain civilization, they will be defeated. The rest of the other civilizations were left out.
However, their worries will not last long.
As long as the chain of suspicion is not eliminated, and as long as the chain of suspicion still exists, there will definitely be a day when we can no longer stand it any longer.
By then, when all civilizations can no longer stand it any longer, a big fight may even break out in this level three environment.
Fight to the end, whoever survives to the end will be able to have good luck...
"You want to say, why didn't they establish an order like now when the universe was still healthy? In that case, the universe wouldn't have evolved into as bad as it is now, right?"
Liang Bing saw through Cheng Xin's thoughts and said.
"Yes, they obviously have this ability and can bring peace to the universe, but why do they remain indifferent?"
Cheng Xin nodded: "On the contrary, I only stood up at the last moment. Is there any point in doing this now?"
Although her thoughts were a bit saintly, the meaning behind her words still made sense at first glance.
After all, an orderly universe, a universe without dark forests, no matter how bad it is, it won't be worse than the current riddled world, right?
Moreover, the benefits of establishing order over the long term are also very obvious.
If there is an authority to establish order for a long time, then whether it is the restart of the Zeroers or the return movement of the intelligent group, it will definitely be easier than it is now.
"hehe……"
Hearing this, Liang Bing laughed meaningfully.
But soon her smile faded again, and her eyes gradually began to wander.
This reminded her of her sister Kesha, and the righteous order Kesha once established, a righteous order that could bring peace to the universe.
Was Kesha's righteous order good or bad for the known universe?
Even now, even if she still doesn't want to admit that Kesha is right, she doesn't think that the righteous order is correct.
But there is no doubt that if Cheng Xin was born in the known universe, he would probably agree with Kesha.
"Cheng Xin, you want to be simple again!"
Liang Bing sighed before speaking again: "The so-called order of the universe cannot be established casually if you have the power. Even if it can be established, how to maintain it is a big problem."
"Okay, let's assume that if they really established an order that you call able to maintain peace in the universe at the beginning."
"When human civilization develops and becomes stronger, and we learn of their existence, what will humans think?"
"In other words, what would you and Guan Yifan think?"
Liang Bing asked next.
"I would think that they are a civilization that is not simple. The so-called order is only to limit and control the development of human civilization. I would even think that they are enslaving human civilization and all civilizations in the universe."
Guan Yifan answered first.
His answer can also be said to be the standard answer that almost all humans can give.
After all, compared to what else; a civilization that establishes order is great, and the original intention of a civilization that establishes order is to maintain peace in the universe.
Under normal circumstances, humans are still willing to believe in some conspiracy theories.
"Other civilizations thought the same thing."
Liang Bing smiled and said with certainty: "Most of the time, whether humans or other civilized creatures, they are more willing to believe in their own judgment."
"Instead, place your hopes on the kindness of a higher civilization that is far stronger than your own."
"So, most civilizations in the universe do not want this kind of order to exist."
"Most civilizations in the universe would rather struggle to survive in the universe than see a civilization that can decide their own destiny at any time..."
She can explain this question very clearly, after all, this is what she thought when she was in the known universe.
No matter how fanciful Kesha's claims about justice and order are, it cannot stop her yearning for freedom.
"Perhaps, this kind of order you call once existed in this universe, but this universe did not allow it to exist. It was killed by this universe, and no new order was born again..."
she continued.
After listening to what the two said, although Cheng Xin was very reluctant to accept this fact, she could not find any words to refute what Liang Bing and Guan Yifan said was wrong.
Humans, there is a high probability that they might think so.
If the order she hoped for really existed from the beginning, perhaps the first person humans would rebel against would be the creator of the order.
"What you think is the same as your ability, and that's just what you think. There are very few people like you who only live for responsibility..."
Zhizi also said to Cheng Xin at this time.
Obviously, she, who has a broader understanding of the universe than a few people, also believes that order cannot be established in the universe.
Because the so-called fairness has never been practiced no matter when or where it is.
The establishment of an order also means that a group of groups will become vested interests in the establishment of the order.
The rest can only become the targets of exploitation by vested interests.
After all, how can anyone with vested interests dislike the increase in their own interests?
Those with vested interests say: Our establishment of order can bring you peace and stability, and of course you have to pay for it, which is fair.
But the exploited said: This is not fair, why is it you, why can't it be me?
We can still live without your so-called bullshit order, and on the contrary, we will live better.
Therefore, it is doomed that no matter which civilization wants to establish the so-called order, it will be opposed by the entire universe.
There is no comparison between civilizations in the universe, nor between individuals within a civilization. The base of civilizations is too large, and no one can have the power to absolutely crush everything.
Even the Zeros are the same, there are still forces that can compete with them.
"You're saying that although there is no power that can compete with the order-makers in this level three environment, that doesn't mean there isn't one elsewhere?"
Guan Yifan noticed the information contained in Tomoko's words and immediately asked.
After all, this may mean that there will be other civilizations as powerful as the Zeros.
"Yes, although I have no direct evidence."
Tomoko nodded: "But Cheng Xin just mentioned why they didn't establish order from the beginning, and Liang Bing's point of view is that there will be many other civilizations that don't want them to establish order."
"It reminded me that there is actually another possibility."
"That is, there may be many civilizations that are as powerful as the Zeros. These equally powerful civilizations are just like the original human civilization and the Trisolaran civilization. Even if there is a gap in technological strength between them, the gap will not be too big. big."
"It is precisely because of the existence of these equally powerful civilizations that the universe has not become a powerful civilization. They have formed constraints on each other."
"Perhaps, they may also be fighting wars and wars with each other just like us..."
Tomoko analyzed.
Her analysis also points directly to the truth.
After all, what Liang Bing said was that all civilizations were unwilling to be controlled.
But this does not determine the determination of absolutely powerful civilizations to establish order in the universe.
Because no matter how much a weak civilization does not want the establishment of order, no matter how much it resists, it is impossible to stop the Returners.
Only a civilization as powerful as the Null Ones has this ability.
"I agree with your statement."
After listening to Tomoko's words, Guan Yifan nodded.
After all, he also knew that the Zeroes wanted to return to the pastoral era of the universe.
He had also introduced this to Cheng Xin and Liang Bing before, and he was absolutely certain that the Zero Returners yearned for the pastoral universe more than anyone else, and that the Zero Returners were eager to return.
But the Zeroers are in such a hurry, why don't they do it immediately?
It's definitely not because I don't like it.
But there is something that can stop them, blocking their progress.
Guan Yifan had never thought of that before, but now that he heard Tomoko say this, he found out the reason.
"Okay, regarding the answer to this question, I think as long as we enter this level three environment, we may be able to find the answer immediately."
At this time, Liang Bing stopped the topic and said.
Then, the spaceship aboard the few people sailed away from the gate of small universe 647 and entered the last square pool in this vast ocean of universe!
