Lighting up super-god technology in the Three-Body World

Chapter 172 I do

From the previous era's call to "guarantee the material well-being of humanity" to this era's practice of "everyone should enjoy freedom,"
This made the Trisolaran guest understand a principle.
There are many figures who can stand at the pinnacle of civilization and stir up storms.
However, there are very few people who possess such abilities and status yet quietly dedicate themselves to civilization, willingly serving as "oxen for the people."

Mr. Jiang Fan is one of them, which is why he is worth following.

Jiang Fan looked at Chen Zhou, his expression shifting from disbelief to fervor, because her behavior was enough to confirm one thing for him.

Humanity's patriotic ideology can ignite a fire in the dark forest!
It possesses the core value of uniting all civilizations!
Overwhelmed with emotion,

He seemed more excited than usual.

Xiling, sensing something amiss, subtly shifted her position closer to the man, almost as if she were showing off her affection to Chen Zhou.

Unaware of this, Jiang Fan spoke to his fellow traveler before him.
“Chen Zhou, your idea is correct. There is a saying in the Book of Changes: ‘Only change is unchanging!’”

"I am very pleased that you can understand the thoughts of Earthlings, which shows that some philosophical principles are applicable to interstellar societies."

"Perhaps in the near future, the division between civilizations will no longer be determined by race or anything else, but by whether or not a certain philosophy can be accepted."

"Both human civilization and the Trisolaran civilization agree on the pursuit of a better life,"

"Based on this, we have explored for a long time the path from confrontation to non-confrontation, from hostility to non-hostility, and from isolation to actual exchanges!"

"Finally, we see the light at the end of the tunnel!"

Shen Zhou glanced at Xi Ling, then her attention was immediately drawn to Jiang Fan. A sense of mutual appreciation, akin to that between kindred spirits, lingered between them. She nodded.

"Yes, we will eventually see the light at the end of the tunnel!"

After speaking, she asked with a respect she didn't even show to a head of state,
"Is there something you wanted to discuss with me?"

Jiang Fan replied,

There's something I'd like to ask for your opinion on.

Sunken Boat Road
"Please tell me."

Jiang Fan thought for a moment, then said,

"I hope you can keep this message a secret. Although it's not a big deal if you don't keep it a secret, to avoid other trouble, I still hope that Shen Zhou can do as I say."

Before the woman opposite him could respond, he directly revealed humanity's knowledge of antimatter engines.

"Not long ago, the space laboratory successfully created an antimatter engine, increasing space travel speed to one-fifth the speed of light,"

"The conditions for sending you back to the Trisolaran system have been met, as you requested a few years ago."

"The reason I called you here today is to talk to you about this matter."

A complex expression, a mixture of shock, disbelief, and confusion, appeared on Shen Zhou's extremely beautiful face. Her red lips were wide open, revealing her delicate tongue.
After a dozen or so breaths, she swallowed hard and asked, as if seeking confirmation,

"Mr. Jiang, are you telling the truth?"

Jiang Fan nodded slightly.

"Of course it's true. I won't go into the details, but I can say for sure that humanity already possesses warships with this kind of space travel speed."

She covered her mouth and exclaimed in surprise.
"My God, how did you guys do that?!"

Jiang Fan smiled.
"Didn't you say that humans are good at creating miracles? Let's just consider this a miracle."

Chen Zhou became somewhat incoherent.

"I...I...this is not scientific," Jiang Fan shook his head.

"This is scientific. This is the energy that a group can unleash. Do you know how many people are in the Physics Research Department of Dawn City?"

Chen Zhou shook his head.

"do not know."

Jiang Fan explained to her,
“Our physics research department has more than five million full-time staff, and if you include part-time staff, that number increases tenfold! In the era of the United Nations, how many people were engaged in physics research and development? There were less than 100,000 people worldwide.”

He pointed to his brain.
"Three generations of gene-enhancing drugs and one generation of super gene-enhancing drugs give our brains ample energy to contemplate the truths of the universe!"

"Brain-computer chips and the Second World provide immense convenience for communication and data simulation. Coupled with abundant resources, a stable environment, and no human interference, the speed at which humanity advances its technological path is unimaginable to the Trisolaran civilization!"

"So, I don't actually care much about the deal with your leader. It's just that human civilization doesn't like being taken advantage of, you understand?"

Having been in contact with human civilization for many years and being a highly intelligent individual himself, Chen Zhou naturally understands this meaning.
The problem is, isn't the Earth civilization just too unreasonable?
It’s only been a few years?
Antimatter engines have been installed on ships?
If the leader heard this news, wouldn't he be terrified?

No wonder they wanted to keep it a secret.

She struggled to convince herself of this fact.

"You mean you can send us back to the Trisolaran system at any time?"

Jiang Fan's calmness contrasted sharply with Chen Zhou's agitation.

"Yes, but on the way back, I need you and the other Trisolaran guests to accompany me on a tour of your First Fleet."

Ah? ?

Shen Zhou couldn't keep her expression down; she couldn't understand Jiang Fan's way of thinking at all.

"Why? Do you want to eliminate the threat?"

After asking that question, she herself became nervous.

If Jiang Fan said he wanted to wipe out the First Fleet, she would not doubt for a second whether humanity had the capability to do so.

After all, possessing antimatter engine technology means being able to create antimatter weapons.

Destruction is often much simpler than defense.
The Trisolaran First Fleet is indeed powerful, possessing the force to destroy Earth, but that doesn't mean they are immune to antimatter weapons.

Seamless materials constructed from strong interactions, such as water droplets, are also susceptible to the annihilation of matter and antimatter, exploding directly on the spot.

Jiang Fan was amused by Chen Zhou's performance.
"Heh, what are you thinking? Human civilization and the Trisolaran civilization are in their honeymoon period, why would I want to make them more hostile?"

After making the joke, he continued,
"I went to the First Fleet this time to discuss the fate of the Trisolarans with them."

"Although your leader wants to use the First Fleet to test Earth's attitude, I don't think it's necessary. Humans are no longer the defenseless insects they were decades ago,"

"Our military strength is sufficient to guarantee our safety, and we also have the broadcast deterrence system and roaming plan controlled by Xiling. Even if we are still no match for you,"

"But as I said before, being able to fight, run away, and withstand attacks—having any one of these qualities puts you in an invincible position from the start."

Chen Zhou breathed a heavy sigh of relief, his heart, which had been in his throat, finally settled back into his stomach.

She didn't know what she would do if she heard Jiang Fan wanted to destroy the First Fleet.
After all, they were one percent of the Trisolaran civilization's population.
She simply yearns for a better civilization and lifestyle; she is not a traitorous Trisolaran as depicted in the classic Blue Star drama.

“It’s wonderful that you think that way. I’m willing to go to the First Fleet with you.”
