How long has it been since you looked up at the stars?
Do you still remember the picture of a shooting star streaking across the sky under the starry night sky?
Human beings have always believed that there must be intelligent races like humans deep in the starry sky. Rumors about aliens have been circulating for hundreds of years, and there are countless related literary works.
However, is it really a good thing to wait until aliens visit the earth?
As the satellite network was restored, scientists were pleasantly surprised to find that the satellite they launched into Mars' low-Earth orbit had not been destroyed. It was still performing its mission responsibly and taking a large number of precious photos.
Eight countries on the earth have launched satellites to Mars. Among them, the two countries of Qianghan and Bodeig have the most satellites and have taken the most photos. When they were sifting through these photos, they suddenly discovered a huge monster. .
That was an aircraft. It was countless times larger than the one developed by Lu Caishi. It was definitely not the current technology of the earth. Even the six most powerful countries before the Eight World Alliance invaded World 1 could not build this kind of aircraft together. aircraft.
Because of this behemoth, the newly established coalition government, which existed in name only not long after it was established, once again played its role. Without the participation of the chief architect, the heads of government of various countries met urgently.
"What do you think?" asked President Winston from Bodeig.
"Invaders." Medwicki, the president of Snow Bear Country, said with great certainty.
The head of state of Qiang Han also replied slightly conservatively: "We are not sure whether they will invade us, but it must be Star Air Passenger."
"It's true that one wave has not subsided, and another wave has arisen." President Winston said helplessly.
"Excuse me, where is it now? Can you determine its location?" the president of a certain country asked.
"Scientists have been urgently searching for it, but it has not been found yet. These photos were taken more than three months ago."
"More than three months ago?" A president said with a strange expression, "In other words, it was the time when the chief designer just disappeared."
The head of state of Qiang Han suddenly looked unhappy and said in a deep voice: "What do you want to say?"
"Haha, don't get me wrong, Mr. Yuan, this may be just a coincidence."
President Winston waved his hand and said: "Even if there is only one chance in ten thousand, we have to guard against it. If the chief designer is really caught by those aliens, we must try to rescue him. He is The hope for the future of our species.”
"Oh, let's find this aircraft first."
I didn't know it before, but now that I know that an alien spacecraft is approaching the earth, it is easy to find it if I search hard.
Soon, scientists found the huge aircraft through a photo sent back to the ground by a moon-orbiting satellite.
The moon-orbiting satellite is currently in a crashed state, and it crashed recently.
Because the Eight World Alliance forces had previously destroyed all satellites orbiting the earth, coupled with the loss of power and network, even the loss of another satellite orbiting the moon did not seem to be a big deal to the people on the ground.
However, if you think about it carefully, what caused the crash of the lunar satellite?
This cannot be the "credit" of the Eight World Alliance. This blame is too high and they cannot bear it.
The possibility of it crashing automatically is extremely low. Even if it breaks down, it will become space junk and continue to float in space.
Eliminating all possibilities, there is only one possible reason, that it was destroyed by an alien spacecraft.
Then the location of Starliner is self-evident. They have landed on the moon, or in other words, they have landed on the moon before and now they have arrived on the earth quietly.
Governments across the world have mobilized and the world has once again entered a state of emergency alert.
They have no experience fighting aliens. They have never even seen what aliens look like.
We don’t know what the enemy’s strengths are, nor what are the enemy’s weaknesses. We only know that they have more advanced space technology than Earth.
If a military conflict does occur, what should they do to deal with these alien invaders?
It is true that aliens are here, and they have no intention of hiding their whereabouts. The moon-orbiting satellite mentioned above did crash because of them, but it was not destroyed actively, but the aircraft was descending to the moon. When they hit the satellite, it hit the moon and crashed. They didn't pay attention to all the satellites launched by the people on earth, just like an elephant doesn't pay attention to the flies that landed on it.
This group of aliens are also carbon-based life forms, which is probably the fundamental reason why they were able to discover the earth.
It is difficult for different forms of life to be discovered by each other, because it is difficult for both parties to understand the existence of the other. Just like the organic life forms and inorganic life forms described in "The Three-Body Problem", even if they meet each other, they will not understand each other. They regard each other as living beings, but in fact the technological civilization between them is highly developed.
Scientists have long conducted in-depth research on life forms, and the consensus view is that there is not only carbon-based life in the universe, but there may also be sulfur-based life, amino-based life, boron-based life, silicon-based life, arsenic-based life, etc. , but so far, no one has discovered life forms other than carbon-based life.
The 19th-century biographer Haldane once proposed that there may be semi-melted silicate life forms deep inside the planet. He believed that such life forms could use the oxidation of iron to provide energy, but his theory The conjecture has not been confirmed until now.
It can also be reflected from this aspect. If there is another new life form that is completely different from the earth's humans, it is very likely that the earth's people will not notice it, and they will most likely not pay attention to the earth's people. Both sides It is very possible to live in peace and harmony for countless years without knowing or even knowing the existence of the other party.
Let's talk about this group of alien intelligent lifeforms. They are taller than humans. They are generally more than two meters tall, and some can reach three meters tall. Even the dwarfs among them are not less than 1.8 meters tall.
Their faces are long, with pointed features and chins, and their ears are diamond-shaped, but the pendulous tips are much longer, hanging over their shoulders like awls, forming an inverted triangle with their chins.
Their skin is very dark and has a metallic color. The surface of their bodies is as hard as steel, and their physical strength is also very strong. Their fingers are long and sharp. There are no nails on the backs of the fingers, but the tips of the entire fingers have become horny.
They don't even need to wear clothes because they shed their skin like a snake, but the skin doesn't fall off and sticks to the surface of the body.
They will automatically shed their skin once a year before the age of 16, and they will use special techniques to polish it so that the multiple layers of leather armor are bonded together without being very thick, thus forming a solid armor that surrounds everything except the reproductive organs of the lower body. Except for their bodies and heads, there is no weakness in their bodies.
Their skin has no sweat glands, so this armor will not make them feel stuffy and uncomfortable, and there is no sweat to shed. All waste in their bodies can only be discharged through the excretion cavity.
They are also humanoid creatures. Their overall structure is similar to that of humans. They also stand on two feet and walk. They are also mammals. However, when women breastfeed babies, they do not breastfeed through the breasts of their chests. This is the biggest difference between them and people on earth. There are no nipples on the chest.
The tongue in their mouth has a function similar to that of a breast. They can use the glands on the tip of the tongue to secrete the nutrient fluid needed by the baby. Therefore, their tongue is also very long, up to 20 centimeters, and can be bifurcated like a snake, allowing them to feed two children at the same time. a baby.
They visited the solar system when the insect plague was about to end, and witnessed the damage caused by the insect plague to humans, and also witnessed the process of humans eliminating the insect plague, but they were a little baffled. They did not understand how humans solved the problem.
They quietly captured a few humans for research, and found that the frequency ranges of the sounds they could emit were different, and there was very little overlap. This meant that they could not communicate through normal channels. They needed to develop specialized communication tools.
The frequency range of their sounds is 5 to 35 Hz. Similar to whales on Earth, the frequency range of human hearing is much wider, but it is still difficult to hear the sounds of these space passengers.
They also did research on the human body structure, and this is what surprised them. The human body is not as strong as theirs, but the development potential of the human body is much stronger than theirs.
This means that once the two sides conflict, they may defeat humans in a very short period of time, but if they cannot eliminate humans at once, then they will be defeated by humans sooner or later due to the strong development potential of humans.
The air on the earth can barely support them to breathe, but the ultra-high nitrogen in the air will cause harm to their bodies. Long-term exposure to the air will make them dizzy and their limbs weak.
Human beings have the ability to launch weapons into space. This was discovered when they first arrived in the solar system. The densely packed satellite debris in the starry sky is the best proof.
Human weapons are generally weak, but they have reached a level that can cause damage to them.
They have not thought about destroying mankind, but if possible, they would not mind colonizing the earth and turning it into a mine of their own.
However, after comprehensively assessing the civilization of the earth, they also had a slight wavering in colonizing the earth. They may be able to succeed, but they will inevitably pay a huge price.
People on earth also possess a super high technology that even they do not possess, and that is the ability to open passages to parallel worlds.
Although their aircraft can already fly at faster than light speed, they are still far from being able to open a parallel world channel. The two sides have developed completely different technology trees.
After understanding this information, these space travelers immediately shelved their plans to colonize the earth and re-established their mission goal of acquiring parallel space transmission technology.
On the basis of this goal, if they need to colonize the earth to achieve it, then they will not hesitate to colonize the earth. If they need to destroy humans to succeed, they will destroy humans at all costs.
But how to obtain this technology?
There are also quite a few differences within them. Some people think that doing more is worse than doing less, and it is better to trade directly. The people on earth do not yet have the ability to conflict with the solar system. They can sell them the simplest hyperlight engine and let them use parallel space technology. to exchange.
Some people think that it is better to ask for it. They are the powerful party and the earth is the weak party. Although they do not necessarily want to destroy humans on earth, they only need a little deterrence to make earth people believe that they have the power to destroy earth. Naturally, earth people We will obediently provide them with the technology they need.
Others suggested snatching it directly. Since the earth is the weaker party, just snatch it directly. The people on earth still dare to resist. Even if they resist, it is just an underestimation of their own capabilities.
There are also peacemakers who come out to mediate. No matter which method is used to obtain it, contact with the people on the earth is inevitable. It is better to understand the attitude of the people on the earth first. Maybe things are not as complicated as imagined.
