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

What does Chapter 221 mean?
The driver nodded, and the White Emperor robot moved outward about two hundred meters, allowing everyone to see its full appearance clearly.

"The White Emperor's second form has two weapon systems: long-range and close-range. The long-range weapon system is the same as the flight mode, which launches Dark Arrow missiles. I will demonstrate the close-range weapon system."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a ten-meter-long laser sword suddenly emerged from a hole at the end of the White Emperor robot's arm.

Calling it a sword isn't accurate; it's more like an incredibly solid laser beam, with energy swirling around it that can be faintly seen even in deep space!

Ding Yi explained to everyone,

"The second version of the solidified laser weapon, through a pre-set corridor frame, concentrates high-energy rays into a burst within a certain area, generating a sustained high temperature exceeding 3,500 degrees Celsius,"

"Because of its intangible nature, this laser weapon is not only more powerful than any sharp blade, but it can also change its length according to the situation, without the risk of breaking or sinking."

As they spoke, the White Emperor fighter jet had already demonstrated the extension and retraction of the laser sword several times. The pilot then requested,
"Chief Ding, let's proceed with the cutting test."

Ding Yi nodded, and immediately a pile of metal debris flew from the experimental station toward the White Emperor robot.

"These are all made of non-alloy steel, but their toughness should not be underestimated. Each piece would be a treasure of the level of meteorite iron in ancient times."

Faced with these contraptions, the White Emperor fighter jet simultaneously extended laser swords from both hands, shredding them to pieces as easily as cutting melons and vegetables.
The driver even had the leisure to perform a stunt, creating a visible cutting net by relying on the visual afterimage of the ultra-high-speed slashing.

The holographic image shows his lips moving slightly; those skilled in lip reading can understand his silent cry.
"Soriyagatong!"

This made Luo Ji itchy to do something, so he asked Ding Yi,
"Old Ding, learning to drive this shouldn't be too difficult, right?"

Ding Yi glanced at him and uttered the classic line,

"You want to learn? I'll teach you."

Luo Ji's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly.
"It's always good to have more skills; you should learn them!"

The pilot demonstrated various operations, including launching laser weapons, Dark Arrow missiles, scanning systems, mind escape, and ultimate self-destruction. In short, these weapons completely outclassed all previous combat weapons and were extremely flashy.

But Zhang Beihai asked a question,
"Can we defeat the Trisolaran civilization?"

Ding Yi could only reply,

"I don't know. The only thing I'm sure of is that if several White Emperor fighters take off at the same time, they should be able to defeat the Water Drop."

Jiang Fan praised,
"It's already quite good. With current human technology, we can only create war weapons of this level. The main destructive power is still the antimatter bomb."

"As long as we can drop an antimatter bomb on the target's head, we have enough confidence to declare to the other side that they are not qualified to talk to us in terms of strength."

After saying that, he changed the subject.

“Our warfare is still very rudimentary, relying heavily on bombing. But if the battlefield is not a fixed planet, but the boundless starry sky, then this bombing mode is quite useless.”

"We still need to think about more advanced ways of striking, such as attack methods or weapons that can cover a range of one light-year."

A strike range of one light-year is equivalent to destroying a hundred solar systems simultaneously. Is there really such a method of attack? Ding Yi couldn't imagine it.

After the demonstration of the White Emperor fighter jet,

Jiang Fan and Xi Ling returned to the central building. He summoned Chen Zhou and asked him...
"You still have two years. Have you figured out how to launch the liberation movement?"

Shen Zhou took the teacup Jiang Fan handed him. The water wasn't very hot, so he held it in his hand, looking somewhat embarrassed, and said...
"I have read a lot about the history of struggles on Earth and summarized the lessons learned from those history, but none of them are applicable."

Jiang Fan poured himself a cup of tea, took a small sip, and said...
"Tell me about it."

Chen Zhou began to explain her thoughts.
"In my opinion, the struggle on Earth is about winning people over. As long as we can win the support of enough people, we can win."

"Even if we cannot win at that time, we can establish new influence in remote areas, accumulate strength, and wait for the right opportunity."

"But Trisolaris is different. Unless all Trisolarans can achieve independent thinking, there's no point in trying to win them over." "While I could rely on Earth's resources to gradually transform the Trisolarans into people with independent thinking,"

"But this process is quite lengthy, and during this time, with the Trisolaran civilization's high-tech surveillance, it would be impossible to accumulate enough power."

"Your military strategy of 'build high walls, store up plenty of grain, and delay declaring yourself king' is completely useless on Trisolaris."

"The only solution I can think of is to find a remote satellite outside of Trisolaris, establish a base there, and then continuously modify the Trisolarans' thinking."

Jiang Fan slowly shook his head after listening.
"The chances of success if you do it this way are very low."

The sunken ship sighed heavily.

"I know, but there's no other way."

Jiang Fan said,

"You may not have grasped the essence of this problem yet. Liberating the Trisolaran civilization may not require such a complicated process."

When Shen Zhou first heard Jiang Fan's opinion on this matter, he immediately put down his teacup and behaved like a well-behaved student in class.
"Please tell me."

Jiang Fan pondered for a moment, then raised a few questions.
"Thought sharing is just thought sharing; it doesn't mean you can't generate your own thoughts, right?"

The sunken ship returned.

"Yes, but once it is produced, it will be discovered by others. If it is deemed to be interfering with the survival of civilization, it is a crime and will be burned at the stake."

Jiang Fan asked again,

"So, is this determination based on someone's subjective opinion, or on some kind of rule?"

The sunken ship returned.

"It is the head of state's judgment; if the head of state deems someone guilty, then they are guilty."

Jiang Fan asked again,
"What is the legal basis and power of the head of state's judgment derived from?"

This question startled Shen Zhou slightly, and he thought for a long time before answering.
"The leader is the wise man chosen by the Trisolaran civilization. From the moment he was chosen, he has held the highest power in the Trisolaran civilization. His wisdom has been tested and is universally recognized as the rule of law."

Jiang Fan then asked,

Why was this leader chosen?

The sunken boat replied,
"Because the leader's ideology at the time was the most suitable for the survival of the Trisolaran civilization, and could protect the continuation of the civilization to the greatest extent."

Jiang Fan nodded.

"The crux of the problem lies here: the Trisolaran civilization believes that the wisdom of the leader is the wisdom that guarantees survival, thus forming a regime headed by the leader,"

"If you want to shake this regime, you must come up with wisdom that can better guarantee the survival of the Trisolaran civilization than the wisdom of the leader."

Chen Zhou opened his mouth and said,
"But the Führer has stood the test of time, yet he will not give me time to verify my ideas."

Jiang Fan Road,
"If proposing a more effective way to ensure survival is not feasible, then there is another way: question the Führer's wisdom on survival!"

Chen Zhou stared wide-eyed in confusion.

"What do you mean?"
