Chapter 163 Asking for Help
The exploration of the Star Gate is an extremely important matter that affects the survival of all mankind. No matter how cautious you are, you cannot be too cautious.
Personnel from the GRU, Global Occult Alliance and Special Affairs Bureau waited outside the Star Gate for a long time, but there was still no movement from the Star Gate, so everyone came to the conference room to discuss how to deal with the Star Gate.
It's definitely not possible to send people over proactively.
This is no longer the time in the 1970s to send Travelers golden records to the stars;
Officials in various countries have long realized how dangerous it is to send human information to unknown civilizations.
Unknown civilizations (assuming they have the same intelligence as humans) can develop biological weapons targeting the human species through the analysis of human genetic samples.
Only a small number of missiles need to be dropped to easily wipe out the human race.
And it's not feasible to put in extraordinary people with high strength.
First of all, any Earth object trying to pass through the star gate will need the Earth to pay "tolls," which is the energy required to travel across the planet.
The higher the level of transcendent, the higher the toll required.
A small number of transcendent beings used to mean nothing at all;
A large army of extraordinary beings requires astronomical energy reserves.
What's more, the opponent's situation is completely unknown. If the extraordinary army teleports over and can control the leader of the opponent's civilization or destroy the opponent's civilization, then it's easy to say.
If the extraordinary army teleports over, it will be controlled by the other party.
There will be a catastrophe.
Li Ang was in the conference room, listening to the discussions repeated many times by senior strategists and think tanks.
In the end, everyone came up with the result:
It's still the same as what we got from countless previous meetings - seal off the site, dispatch scientific researchers without extraordinary powers, and in a closed environment,
Use the simplest unmanned robot to observe the star gate.
In this way, it is ensured that human civilization will not have an obvious disadvantage in information warfare.
There are dozens of star gates leading to unknown worlds on the earth, and the opponent can fail countless times.
But as long as human beings fail once, they lose everything.
"In a sense, this course of action is quite ostrich-like,"
Li Ang grinned and said sadly to Xing He next to him: "The first stage: we claim that nothing happened.
Stage 2: We say maybe something is happening, but we shouldn’t take action,
Stage 3: Maybe we should take action, but nothing can be done,
Stage 4: Maybe we could have done something, but now it’s too late. "
"There is no other way."
Xing Hechou helplessly spread his hands and said: "There is only one earth.
Although all parties now have Menfei in their hands and can transfer some people to the Menfei world,
But the basic base of industrial facilities is still on the earth.
If we are too aggressive and the earth is attacked by multiple star gate worlds at the same time, we who are fighting locally will most likely be dragged into a protracted civilized war.
I don’t know which civilization will win in the end. Anyway, for most people on earth who have not been able to migrate to the door world, they will definitely lose. "
"Um,"
Li Ang nodded casually, "Do you think this phenomenon of dozens of star gates being connected to the earth at the same time has never happened in history?
For example, during the Cambrian explosion of life, species from multiple planets came to the earth at the same time and competed with each other for dominance of the earth.
In the end, marine invertebrates, the class Trilobites, won out.
They occupied the earth and began a long reign.
What is happening now has also happened in history.
It's just that the human civilization on earth has changed from the status of challenger to the challenged in the arena.
If humans can win one challenge after another, they can continue to maintain their dominance over the earth.
If we lose, human civilization will have no choice but to move to different door worlds.
Our ties with the United States, Russia, and the European Union were severed, and we forgot each other's existence over the long years, and finally degenerated into primitive civilization in the door world.
And wait for the next battle for the door to come. "
"Well?!"
Xing Hechou was surprised and stunned when he heard this, "Brother Li, are you just thinking this, or have you found some key and confirmable evidence?"
No wonder Xing Hechou was so shocked,
Li Ang is an extraordinary person with absolute autonomy of the Star Gate, and judging from the performance of the battle for the Gate,
The quality of the star gate in his hands will never be low.
It is really possible for him to find some key evidence in his door world to prove the current situation of the earth. He is the challenger in the arena.
Only by defeating all the civilizations behind the star gates can they continue to occupy the earth without being driven out of their homeland.
If that is really the case, then all the arrangements of the Global Occult Alliance, officials of various countries, and guild organizations will be rewritten.
"Don't be nervous, I was just talking casually."
Li Ang waved his hand casually and glanced at the relieved expression on Xing Hechou's face from the corner of his eye. He felt no disturbance in his heart.
The Special Affairs Bureau and the Abnormal Society must have more information than I do.
Maybe Li Ang's conjecture had been thought of by the Abnormality Society a long time ago, but they didn't want to cause widespread panic, so they didn't announce it to the outside world, or even senior members like Xing Hechou.
"Brother Li, don't scare me,"
Xing Hechou breathed a sigh of relief, slapped his thigh helplessly, and said, "I'm old and have a bad heart."
"Be careful next time."
Li Ang grinned, turned his head and continued to look at the holographic projection in front of the conference room.
The stargate in Siberia is the second stargate with high frequency activity after the Mayotte Islands.
The GRU wants to build a higher-security fortress here.
And at the exit of the star gate, a stasis field that is open around the clock is placed.
In this way, no matter what is thrown at the other end of the star gate, the stasis field will be able to capture it.
This prevents potential missiles from exploding quickly and prevents the teleported extraordinary creatures from exerting their special powers.
The full-band stasis field is one of the GRU's understatement methods. They did not specify whether it was a technological creation or an extraordinary prop.
However, there is no doubt that turning on the full-band stasis field all the time will consume huge resources.
Therefore, the GRU will cooperate with the Global Occult Alliance and the Secret Service, and the three parties will jointly manage the stargate exit in Siberia.
Major events that could affect the world were quickly decided in this temporary conference room.
Li Ang and others are also preparing to leave here.
However, at this moment, a piercing alarm sounded in the camp.
"what happened?"
Li Ang frowned and released his majestic power, covering half of the camp.
The star gate in Siberia opened again, and this time, something was delivered from the other side of the star gate.
A book made of stone.
Everyone rushed to the star gate location as soon as possible.
The stone dictionary has been strictly kept.
After complicated and rigorous testing, testing, and observation, it was finally determined that this was a stone creation without any technology or extraordinary elements.
The stone is in the shape of a book as a whole, made of gneiss, and is divided into thousands of pages.
Each page is engraved with dense and regular words, and next to the words are pictures.
The content of the pictures includes stars, planets, liquid oceans, soil, rocks, mountains, plants, animals, etc.
In short, this is a dictionary with illustrated pictures.
"What's happening here?"
Among the think tanks participating in the seminar, someone couldn't help but said in shock: "Why would they send a dictionary? Isn't this... self-destruction?"
In civilization studies, the dictionary is one of the best tools for understanding civilization.
A dictionary with complicated contents contains sufficient text that can be analyzed and studied by outsiders.
Even if you don't know the specific meaning of the words, you can slowly decipher it.
The pictures next to the text greatly reduce the difficulty of deciphering the text, improve accuracy, and reduce errors and misunderstandings.
Theoretically speaking, even if the entire UK and Europe are destroyed now,
As long as I leave to posterity an Encyclopedia Britannica,
Later civilizations will also be able to understand all aspects of Britain.
The act of giving a dictionary to an unknown civilization is tantamount to giving the important information of this civilization with both hands.
This is an extremely serious and fatal mistake in the rules of civilized warfare.
"The dictionary was given to us, and the pictures on the dictionary are to reduce the difficulty of deciphering and reduce potential misunderstandings.
In other words, the dictionary itself is a gift, which means that the civilization behind the star gate wants to establish communication with us,"
Someone in the think tank quickly said: "The reason why we choose a stone dictionary is because the stone itself is hard and can withstand wind and sun.
And the use of natural stone can minimize the leakage of their technology.
If I guessed correctly, this should be a small part of the entire civilization dictionary, which mainly introduces the basic concepts of the sun, moon and stars.
We need to show the same kindness so that they can send more dictionaries. "
Everyone present was excited.
This is the first time that a stargate world has taken the initiative to show goodwill to the earth.
After much consideration and discussion,
The GRU, the Global Occult Alliance and the Secret Service decided to also drop a stone dictionary made of the same material into the Star Gate.
Basic concepts such as the sun, moon and stars will also appear in it.
Of course, the dictionary itself is written in the rarest language in the world, Badeshi, which comes from the village of Bishigram in the mountains of northern Pakistan.
This Badeshi language, which belongs to a branch of the Indo-Aryan language family, has long been invaded by Torwali and Pashto languages.
To this day, only three elders in that village who are over seventy years old can say that it is on the verge of extinction.
Using this language can avoid exposing information about human civilization as much as possible.
Even if the opponent possesses memetic-level weapons and can launch an invasion through the power of words, the damage caused will be extremely limited.
Since the Badeshi language only has words but no words, the words are also randomly generated patterns using a computer program.
After the pattern is generated, the computer and computer program are also destroyed to minimize memetic erosion.
Soon, this dictionary of earth civilization, which 99.99% of the people on earth cannot understand, was placed in the star gate.
According to the think tank’s speculation,
If the civilization behind the star gate is smart enough and as developed as human society,
Then they should also quickly decipher the dictionary of earth's civilization and understand the earth's attempt to release goodwill.
Li Ang was about to leave, but after seeing this situation, he took the initiative to stay. He was also a little curious about the intentions of the civilization behind the Star Gate.
"Last time in the script mission of the deep sea monster,
I originally thought that a deep-sea civilization with cross-space teleportation technology might have a door through which it could reach the earth world of the script mission.
As a result, the deep sea civilization does not own the Star Gate and is still under the absolute control of Killing Field Game,"
Li Ang said silently: "If we classify the mystery of these worlds, the earth may be the most mysterious.
Many extraordinary revivals have occurred here in history, and a large number of players have been born.
Huang Shi's world may be on the same level as Earth.
Under the earth, there should be the world of Gate and Stargate.
They only have one passage to the earth, and they have not given birth to many players.
Further down, is the world where the script tasks are located.
There has never been a player there who can travel through time and space at will.
But what is the reason for all these differences?
Are humans special in history?
No, probably not.
In the world of script missions, there are many human beings who speak the same language and share the same world background, and there is no genetic difference or reproductive isolation.
The greater possibility is that the earth itself is special in the system of killing games..."
Li Ang's thoughts were interrupted by the next round of sirens.
The civilization behind the star gate quickly delivered another dictionary.
This time the dictionary is thicker than last time.
It is like the Encyclopedia Britannica, detailing the situation in that world.
They call themselves "Alskalisan" people and come from a remote and deserted star system.
At the center of the star system is a faint red dwarf star, surrounded by three planets.
The Alskalisans are on the second planet.
Their species can be traced back to vertebrates two million years ago. After a long period of evolution and accumulation, they have produced civilization, built cities, and developed technology.
Judging from the dictionary pictures, the appearance of the Alskalisan people is similar to that of humans, but they have no hair on their bodies and their skin is paler (probably because there is not enough sunlight).
They claimed that they once established a powerful civilization, but five hundred years ago, they were invaded by outside civilization and the city was destroyed.
The survivors linger underground, civilization declines,
In the process, they came into contact with the killing game, and a small number of players were born.
However, due to racial genetic defects, the adult individuals in this civilization are very weak and slow, and their perception of time is relatively slow. Few people can become high-level players and possess powerful extraordinary power.
Most people will die in the mission,
For them, player qualification is a curse rather than a blessing.
(In order to unify weights and measures, the Alskalisan people explained in the dictionary that they once had knowledge of atomic energy that was not inferior to that of earth civilization, and used the observation of atomic vibration frequencies to determine the unit of "second". And on this basis, they formulated the Similar minutes, hours, months, and years. Therefore, there will be no misunderstanding between the two parties on concepts such as time.)
The total number of Alskalisan people now does not exceed five thousand, and they all live in underground ruins.
The entire planet's oceans were evaporated by space-based weapons in ancient civilizations' wars.
There are only a few powerful mechanical creatures left on the surface of the planet, devouring and hunting each other.
The entire civilization is at stake.
Their expedition team discovered an active stargate placed in a laboratory by ancient scientists in an ancient civilization city on the surface.
Due to lack of water sources, the tribe is almost unable to survive.
After careful consideration, the elders of the ethnic group decided to send a dictionary to the earth, explain the situation, and ask the earth to help them.
