Because humans are trapped on the earth and have limited survival resources, war breaks out to compete for limited survival resources and better development space. However, the universe is vast and there are countless stars. During this period, it has been observed in the Milky Way that it can be transformed to adapt to the survival of life. There are more than 4,000 planets.
The boundless universe has unlimited living space, so the possibility of a war between two alien civilizations competing for survival resources is extremely low.
What causes alien civilizations to engage in a fierce and cruel interstellar war
Zhou Xing stared at the holographic screen and fell into a state of extreme thinking.
"Dad, don't you know the reason?" Seeing Zhou Xing's stunned expression, Zhou Yu asked with some disappointment.
To be able to carry out such a cruel war, it is certain that they must be fighting for something precious, survival resources, the future of civilization, enemies that threaten their survival... Various reasons are worth investigating.
Zhou Xing nodded with a wry smile. He really ignored this question. From the standpoint of a scientist, he was more interested in exploring the spacecraft technology, civilization level, and technology applications of alien civilizations. As for the direct reason for their war, it was the politicians. , only military strategists like to get to the bottom of things.
Zhou Xing looked at Zhou Xiaozhi and asked impatiently: "Xiaozhi, can you deduce the reason?"
"Boss, due to insufficient data, we can only make probabilistic predictions. The place where the interstellar war broke out is in the 'galactic disk core area' of the Milky Way. Stars in this area are highly dense and the star clusters are older. According to the number of interstellar warships and the control of spherical fortresses, According to the analysis of dark energy strategic weapons, the probability of war breaking out due to the competition of survival resource stars accounts for: 37%, the reason for the outbreak of war due to the Black Forest Law accounts for: 29%, and the factor of natural enemies accounts for: 27%..." Zhou Xiaozhi looked at Zhou Xing, in detail introduced.
Hearing this, Zhou Xing frowned and was troubled again. The probabilities of the several reasons analyzed by Zhou Xiaozhi were not very different, and it was impossible to draw a biased judgment from them.
"The Law of the Black Forest, I know this, can this really happen?" Zhou Yu perked up and asked in surprise.
The Black Forest Law is derived from a very well-known science fiction novel - "The Three-Body Problem". It starts from two self-evident basic axioms and introduces two important concepts - chain of suspicion and technological explosion, to metaphorize the universe. In a dark forest, every civilization is a "hunter" with a gun, sneaking in the forest like a ghost, gently pushing aside the branches blocking the road, trying his best not to make a sound with his footsteps, even breathing must be careful, he must Be careful, because there are "hunters" like him stalking everywhere in the forest. If he finds other life, there is only one thing he can do - shoot and eliminate them.
In this forest, others are hell and an eternal threat. Any life that exposes its existence will soon be wiped out. This is the picture of cosmic civilization and the explanation of the Fermi Paradox.
"Xiaoyu, according to deduction calculations, the possibility of the existence of the Black Forest Law is extremely high. Due to the distance between civilizations, differences in culture, species, and language, it is difficult for civilizations to achieve effective communication. At the same time, it is impossible to judge each other. The good and evil between them will drive both sides to be hostile to each other... Therefore, the chain of suspicion of the Hessian Law is established." Zhou Xiaozhi answered Zhou Xiaozhi.
Zhou Yu nodded empathetically. The first time he learned about the alien civilization, he was afraid of the power of the alien civilization. He was immediately afraid that the other party would know the location of the earth and invade them.
"Dad, we need to build a battleship quickly! Let me take command when the time comes. If they dare to invade us, I will make sure they never come back." Zhou Yu looked at Zhou Xing anxiously and solemnly promised.
Hearing this, Zhou Xing was slightly stunned. He looked up at Zhou Yu's resolute and confident face, smiled and nodded: "Okay! When the Panshi is built, I will leave it to you to command."
"That's true!" Zhou Yu perked up, and then thought of something. He looked at Zhou Xing solemnly and confirmed: "Dad, you can't lie to me anymore, or I will never ignore you again. ."
"Haha! No, no!" Zhou Xing laughed and waved his hands repeatedly.
"Hmph! You said before that you asked me to command the Xingyao, but..." Zhou Yu couldn't help but rolled his eyes.
"Weren't you still young at that time? Now you have grown up." Zhou Xing smiled awkwardly and quickly defended.
After saying that, Zhou Xing looked at Zhou Yu, who was about the same height behind him, and was filled with emotion. Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, Zhou Yu is almost 18 years old. He has grown from an ignorant child into a handsome young man with ambition and vigor.
"A word from a gentleman!" Zhou Yu was ecstatic and nodded.
"It's hard to chase a horse!" Zhou Xing agreed with a smile, and then ordered: "That's it! You go out first, I will talk to Xiaozhi about something."
"Okay, Dad! I'm going out then!" Zhou Yu nodded in surprise.
Watching Zhou Yu turn around and leave, the smile on Zhou Xing's face faded.
What secrets does the universe contain? Why did the auxiliary system issue this task to him? The reason for the outbreak of this interstellar war may be related to the success or failure of the system's mission, and the detection of them cannot be stopped.
After thinking about it, Zhou Xing straightened his face and looked at Zhou Xiaozhi, "Xiaozhi, if we conduct observations near this star field, what is the probability that we will be counter-detected?"
"Boss, there is insufficient data to analyze. However, based on the technological gap between the two parties, we can be sure that once we detect the other party's location, we will also be informed by the other party." Zhou Xiaozhi replied to Zhou Xing.
Hearing this, Zhou Xing's face darkened. In this case, the act of detecting information from alien civilizations was asking for death.
Zhou Xing frowned and thought hard, muttering to himself, "There must be another way, there must be another way!"
"Boss, you want to detect the reason for the outbreak of that interstellar battle? This is very dangerous!" Zhou Xiaozhi quickly reminded Zhou Xingdao.
Hearing this, Zhou Xing smiled bitterly and replied: "I don't know the danger, but if I don't take risks, the mission will definitely fail, and the result will not be much different."
Once the system mission fails, the punishment will come immediately, and it will reduce the impact target by 50% (50% of the human population). Although, I don’t know how the system is implemented, but more than twenty people have been parasitized by the auxiliary system. Years ago, Zhou Xing knew deeply about its urinary nature, and the system definitely did what it said.
Zhou Xiaozhi moved a pair of short mechanical legs and walked slowly in front of Zhou Xing. The red electronic eye data stream was flowing crazily.
After a while, Zhou Xiaozhi reported to Zhou Xinghui: "Boss, if you can't give up, Xiaozhi has several options to offer. First, develop a more covert investigation method. Second, implement indirect data acquisition. Third, , design jamming equipment to interfere with the other party’s detection of our location.”
Hearing this, Zhou Xing was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Zhou Xiaozhi to provide so many solutions, and he was immediately overjoyed.
