Fabricating The World: Creating A Three-Body Invasion At The Beginning

When this line of big characters that seemed to herald the end of the world appeared in front of people's eyes, everyone was stunned.

Audiences all know that the Dark Forest Deterrence occurred after Cheng Xin became the sword bearer.

But no one expected that the day when deterrence failed would come so quickly!

Only fifteen minutes!

It had only been fifteen minutes since Cheng Xin took over the responsibility of the sword holder, but everything had changed!

As for why it is fifteen minutes, many people have actually guessed the answer.

This is probably because Trisolaris was worried about Luo Ji's sudden return, so it immediately launched an attack after it was determined that Luo Ji would not be able to come back within ten minutes!

In short, even the so-called fifteen-minute intimidation maintained by Cheng Xin actually came from Luo Ji's legacy!

The Trisolaran civilization had already been identified and launched an attack the moment Cheng Xin took over the sword wielder's authority!

The thunderbolt that Luo Ji had been waiting for for half a century came to Cheng Xin fifteen minutes after he left.

At this time, Cheng Xin did not immediately activate the gravitational wave broadcast transmitter.

She understood one thing first: she was wrong, she had gotten it all wrong.

Deep in her subconscious, her mission as a sword bearer has always presented a completely wrong image.

Of course, she has been preparing for the worst, or trying to make herself do so.

With the help of fleet and PDC experts, she had a detailed understanding of the overall configuration of the deterrence system, and she also spent all night discussing various possible extreme situations with the fleet's upper-level command system and PDC strategists.

She even imagined scenarios that were worse than the current one.

But she made a fatal mistake that she was not and could not be aware of. In fact, it was precisely because of this mistake that she was elected as the second sword holder.

Because the mistake was-she subconsciously didn't believe that what was happening now would happen.

In Cheng Xin's subconscious, she is a guardian, not a destroyer.

She will use her whole life to protect the balance between the two worlds, let the technology from the Three-Body Problem make the Earth more powerful, and let the culture from the Earth make the Three-Body Problem more and more civilized.

Until one day, a voice said to her: Put down the red switch and come to the ground. The world no longer needs the threat of the dark forest and the sword holder!

When she faced the distant world as a sword holder, unlike Luo Ji, she did not feel that it was a life and death duel, only that it was a game of chess.

She calmly sat down in front of the chessboard, thought of various openings, assumed various chess moves of the opponent, and figured out how to deal with them. She was prepared to spend her whole life playing this game.

But the opponent didn't move a single chess piece. Instead, he grabbed the chessboard and threw it at her head and face.

The moment Cheng Xin took over the red switch from Luo Ji fifteen minutes ago, the six water droplets started to accelerate towards the earth from their hiding place, and the enemy did not waste a second longer.

But now, the sword bearer who is shouldering the heaviest mission for all mankind, who is determined to bring the two worlds to a brighter future, has a blank mind at this moment!

[The three formations of strong interaction space detectors are at an average distance of 10 million kilometers from the earth, and the closest distance is 9 million kilometers, reaching the ground in six minutes!]

Alarms on the walls flashed rapidly.

[The three formations of strong interaction space detectors are at an average distance of 6 million kilometers from the earth, and the nearest distance is 4.5 million kilometers, reaching the ground in three minutes!]

Cheng Xin felt that everything around her had fallen silent.

At this moment, she seemed to see countless pairs of eyes looking at her.

The eyes of dinosaurs, the eyes of trilobites and ants, the eyes of birds and butterflies, the eyes of bacteria...

All life that has ever been born on this planet is waiting for her decision!

Press the switch, and the 3.5 billion-year life process will be suspended, and everything will disappear in the long night of the universe, as if it never existed!

[The three formations of strong interaction space detectors are at an average distance of 3 million kilometers from the earth. The nearest 1.5 million kilometers are decelerating sharply, reaching the ground in one minute and thirty seconds! 】

"No! "々!"

Cheng Xin screamed and threw the switch in her hand, watching it slide away as if it were a devil.

In the last minute and thirty seconds, Cheng Xin felt like the time was stretched infinitely like a spider.

But Cheng Xin didn't hesitate anymore. She insisted on the decision she had made.

This decision was not made with thought, but was deeply embedded in her genes.

This gene can be traced back to four billion years ago. The decision was made at that time, and it was continuously strengthened in the vicissitudes of the next billions of years. Regardless of right or wrong, she knew she had no choice.

Fortunately, relief is coming soon.

One minute and thirty seconds later, a strong earthquake occurred, which was caused by water droplets penetrating the ground.

Then, the red color on the big screen disappeared and was replaced by the previous white color, making the place instantly appear bright and empty. Several lines of large black characters appear on a white background:

[The North American gravitational wave launcher was destroyed. 】

[The European gravitational wave launcher was destroyed. 】

[The Asian gravitational wave launch pad was destroyed. 】

[The solar wave amplification function is suppressed in the entire frequency band. 】

Then, those lines of black text disappeared, and after a blank space, the final display appeared:

[The gravitational wave cosmic broadcast system cannot be restored, and the dark forest deterrence is terminated. 】

When everything was over, Cheng Xin stood up in confusion, and then walked out of the duel field that Luo Ji had defended for fifty-four years.

She took the elevator to the surface alone, and then she saw a slender and beautiful figure waiting for her not far away.

Cheng Xin recognized the other party's identity. It was Zhizi.

"…" You made the choice we predicted. Tomoko sneered and said, "Don't blame yourself. The fact is: people chose you, and they also chose this ending. Among all mankind, you are the only one who is innocent." "

"Why is this all happening?" Cheng Xin murmured, more like asking herself.

"Because the universe is not (Li's) fairy tale."

Of course Cheng Xin understood intellectually that if the deterrence balance was maintained, the bright future would only belong to humans and not the Trisolaran world.

But in her subconscious, the universe is still a fairy tale, a fairy tale of love.

Her biggest mistake was not truly looking at the problem from the enemy's standpoint.

From the way Tomoko looked at her, Cheng Xin understood why she was not attacked by the water droplets.

With the gravitational wave emission system destroyed and the solar wave amplification function suppressed, Cheng Xin couldn't do anything while still alive.

Further speculation: If humans also possess other means of cosmic broadcasting that Trisolaris does not know (very unlikely), someone else may start broadcasting when the sword holder is eliminated.

But if the sword holder is still alive, then this possibility will be much smaller, because those people will have reasons to rely on and shirk.

The enemy has seen through her! He has seen through all mankind!.
