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

Chapter 261 When it’s time to break, it’s time to break
As the bugle call that came closest to the UFO, it naturally entered the public eye!
Zhang Beihai, in his capacity as chief, spoke to Allen on the phone.
"Allen, has the Stormtrooper detected anything unusual?"

Allen, being a member of Star Wars himself, saluted in return.

"Chief, no anomalies were found."

Zhang Beihai nodded.
"Please be prepared. Xiling will take over the authority of the Charge and use it as a base to monitor the aircraft's movements."

Allen naturally couldn't refuse, and at the same time mentioned,

"No problem, I'll follow orders, but I hope this operation will allow me to participate as a frontline combatant!"

Zhang Beihai agreed without hesitation.

"Of course, as the vanguard flagship, you have been included in the combat sequence. In order to safeguard human civilization, you must go without hesitation!"

Allen nodded emphatically.

"Without hesitation!"

Central Building,

Upon learning the news, Jiang Fan had a very ominous suspicion.

Could it be that the Singer Civilization's Cleaners have arrived?
The original plot has already fallen apart beyond recognition. Even if it hadn't fallen apart, it wouldn't have been of much reference value, but it's still better than being completely clueless.

Luo Ji, Da Shi, Ding Yi, Lin Bailan, Qu Yuan, and Chen Zhou—a group of people from all over the country rushed to the central building.
Despite the Second World's support for remote virtual meetings, everyone still came to find Jiang Fan in person, and the office was overflowing with people.

meeting room,
Very silent,
Da Shi couldn't help but speak up.

"Old Jiang, say something, what should we do about this?"

All eyes, lowered in homage, were focused on the person in the main seat, just as they had on countless other decisions before.

Jiang Fan was used to this kind of pressure, but this time was different. The opponent was not the Trisolaran civilization, nor any known civilization, and judging from the speed of the spacecraft, its technological strength must be greater than that of the Trisolaran civilization.

Luo Ji squinted and said,

"Take it easy. The existence of other civilizations in the universe is quite common. At seven light-years away, our solar system is as small as a soybean."

"From the perspective of that civilization, we are surrounded by soybeans, and they may not even notice us! I believe Shen Zhou and Qu Yuan deeply understand this!"

The two Trisolarans nodded in unison, and Qu Yuan echoed their sentiments.
"That's right. The Trisolaran system is only four light-years away from our solar system. We couldn't pinpoint its exact coordinates before. It was only by the time difference between the two signals, and the fact that there are only two star systems within that distance, that we were able to confirm it."

"If the spacecraft is only making a single voyage, there is less than a one in ten million chance that it will discover us."

The comforting words from the physics expert were quite effective, and everyone's hearts, which had been pounding with anxiety, calmed down slightly.
Only Zhang Beihai's expression remained unchanged as he spoke in a deep voice.
"A low probability is one thing, being prepared is another. Don't put your hopes for survival above the possibility."

These words successfully made the atmosphere tense again. Yun Tianming suggested...

"The other party can travel at the speed of light, and so can Zhizi. By having Zhizi follow the other party, we can find out the spaceship's purpose,"

Ding Yi replied,

"We have already done that. The tracking distance is too short to calculate the spacecraft's path with an accuracy down to the kilometer, but the general direction will not deviate from 100 astronomical units of the solar system."

Andrew exclaimed in surprise.
"We've entered the inner ring of the Kuiper Belt, the interior of a star system in a broader sense. Although the planet is still more than 60 astronomical units away, it's like we've come to our doorstep!"

Randall continued,
"No, this distance is too dangerous. A slight deviation could allow us to penetrate the solar system directly, and with our frequent interstellar activity, it's impossible for us to go undetected!" Chen Zhou also spoke up.

"Once our location is discovered, we will face endless deadly attacks, as the Trisolaran civilization has already proven!"

Just like Luo Ji's actions in the original novel, the Trisolaran civilization had already broadcast the coordinates of a certain star system to verify the laws of survival in the universe. The result was self-evident: more than 800 years later, the Trisolaran civilization overheard the light carrying information about the destruction of the star.

Wang Miao said with certainty,

"Therefore, we must not let other civilizations discover our location!"

Da Shi offered his suggestions.
"Can we shoot it down?"

Qu Yuan frowned and said,

"Initiating an attack is tantamount to revealing our location, and no one knows how powerful the civilization behind this spaceship is."

Jiang Fan's eyes flickered slightly. After listening to the various discussions, he spoke first.
"No, no, no, traditional mobile attacks will indeed reveal our position, but with our mastery of the insect bridge technology, long-range attacks won't necessarily expose our position!"

Upon hearing this, not only did Qu Yuan, Chen Zhou, and other members of the Trisolaran race have their eyes light up, but everyone else also suddenly understood.
Zhang Beihai was the first to support it.
"Then let's fight! We can't let any troublemakers get away!"

Everyone looked at Jiang Fan; if he said to fight, then they definitely would!
Jiang Fan did not make a hasty decision, but instead raised several questions.

"How do we attack? How do we confirm we can take it down? What if that civilization indiscriminately destroys the surrounding star systems?"

The problem returns to the issues of suspicion and information asymmetry. Who knows how advanced that thing's technology is? Even the most destructive attack from humanity combined with the Trisolaran civilization would only result in the annihilation of matter and antimatter.
Water droplets are indeed strong, but once you master the fundamental forces, they're not that difficult to manipulate.
The spaceship can travel at the speed of light, and its outer shell is probably made of water droplet material. If a water droplet hits it, it will probably only leave a mark.

Da Shi slammed his fist on the table.
"Damn it, we've only had a few years of comfortable living, and now another advanced civilization has arrived. This is really messed up."

Jiang Fan opened his mouth, but the words didn't come out because Luo Ji spoke first.

"There's nothing we can do. The universe is so vast, and life isn't special. Wherever there are people, there's a world of its own."

Lin Bailan also said,
"If all else fails, we'll try the strongest attack. We can't let it get all the way to the solar system!"

The suggestion was accepted by the majority, who nodded in agreement, and the final decision rested with Jiang Fan.

It's impossible not to fight now; if we're going to fight, we need to be fully prepared.
Jiang Fan made the decision.

"We can fight! But we also need to make other preparations!"

"Make a decisive decision when necessary, or you will surely suffer chaos!"

"If the strike plan fails, the solar system must be abandoned and everyone must fully transition to interstellar society!"

The full-scale entry into interstellar society means that all humans on Earth will travel to space aboard starships, abandon their home planet, become wanderers, and thus completely break free from the constraints of planets.

It is foreseeable that human thought will undergo tremendous changes at that time, and it remains to be seen whether the unified body of the Humanitarian Alliance can be maintained.

Jiang Fan had just suggested doing this: only by scattering like stars across the sky can we avoid attacks from civilizations including the Singer civilization.

He still has no clue how to crack the two-dimensional foil.
