I, a ship girl, am the savior of civilization.

This is the dark forest world of survival of the fittest. In fact, Laura's decision was rather merciful.

Don't say you weren't warned; at least Laura had already warned you beforehand.

"Has it really come to this?"

A bitter laugh came from the other end, as if a final decision had been made, and the voice suddenly became manic: "Then don't blame us for dying together!"

"We have established a total of 1453 large gravitational wave transmitters in this star system, and every Trisolaran warship is also equipped with a gravitational wave transmitter. If you do not want Earth's coordinates to be spread throughout the universe, then immediately cease all acts of genocide against our civilization!"

Watching this scene, Laura was initially dumbfounded, then instinctively looked at Luo Ji beside her.

This scene seems so familiar...

Laura: Meow meow meow?

140. The Three-Body Problem, belonging to the stars!

Seeing that classic threatening tone, Laura felt both amused and exasperated.

The operations and methods are familiar, but this time it is the humans who are fulfilling the duties of the Dark Forest.

Of course, Laura never actually intended to destroy the Trisolaran civilization. In fact, from the initial Pacific Rim to the current Trisolaran universe, Laura has always adhered to pacifism.

Originally, Laura wanted to see what the Trisolaran civilization could do when faced with the same Dark Forest attack, but she never expected them to choose this method.

We must use the Dark Forest Theory to defeat the Dark Forest.

However, even with the threat posed by Earth's coordinates, Laura wasn't too worried. Gravitational waves transmit energy and weave information in the form of gravitational radiation, but with four-dimensional spatial structure in hand, shielding gravitational waves within a galaxy is not a problem.

Even if the Trisolaran civilization has other means, Laura can simply have the Star System completely cover this star sector; in short, Earth will never be destroyed as a result.

"Is this your solution?"

Her tone was calm and even, but the author of the Three-Body Problem clearly sensed a hint of amusement in Laura's words. It wasn't mockery, but rather an expression of almost anticipation.

It seems that Laura is anticipating the Trisolaran civilization's next response, hoping for an even bigger surprise.

"If that's all, it's not enough to make Laura back down. Space doesn't pose any threat to Laura."

Seated comfortably in the captain's chair of the Dawn, Laura casually said while twirling her blonde hair, "Whether it's this star system or your so-called Legacy Fireflight Fleet."

As soon as she looked out, the fleet carrying the seeds of the Trisolaran civilization appeared in Laura's eyes. At ten percent of the speed of light, the speed of the Trisolaran escape fleet was nothing to Laura.

"Courage is commendable, but if you want Laura to go easy on you, you'd better give her a plausible reason."

"Time limit: ten minutes!"

As if to prove Laura's abilities, all the physical constants within Alpha Centauri began to run rampant. Under Laura's will, the rules of the cosmos began to make initial contact with this inconspicuous star system, disrupting everything that was originally there.

Both the escape fleet and the Trisolaran First Fleet received overwhelming feedback from their faster-than-light engines, which eventually became completely useless, accompanied by a wisp of smoke.

The planet closest to the Trisolaran homeworld is like a countdown clock, falling at a constant speed toward Proxima Centauri in the triple star system. Unsurprisingly, it will be completely engulfed by the heat of the main sequence star.

The time it took to step into the abyss of death was exactly ten minutes, no more, no less.

This was a more desperate moment than when our home planet frequently suffered from chaotic eras.

Within ten minutes, the Trisolaran civilization had enough time to verify whether the gravitational waves could be transmitted. Almost the instant Laura's countdown began, thousands of gravitational wave transmitters began experimental communication, but what they received was disappointment.

Like that planet, the Trisolaran civilization has embarked on a path of decline and destruction. If Laura's mind cannot be changed, then the already tragic history of the Trisolaran civilization will come to an end today.

"Gentlemen, let's make this decision. The fate of civilization rests on this."

At the highest meeting, the leader of the Trisolaran civilization glanced around. The Trisolarans' ability to be transparent allowed the leader to convey his thoughts without asking questions, and he could also know the answers of others in an instant.

(P.S.: The original book used "Führer," but just in case, I've changed it to "Leader.")

That last sentence was the first and only sentence in the entire meeting.

They immediately contacted the Fireseed Fleet. The Star Rules only blocked faster-than-light and wide-area space communications within the Trisolaran civilization; fixed-point quantum communication was still usable.

The leader's figure appeared on the screen, looking at the countless Trisolaran elites on the ship, and then sighed softly.

Without needing to communicate, the captain of the Fireseed Fleet understood the civilization's decision, saluted the leader, hung up the communication, and then activated the fleet's self-destruct system without hesitation.

Meanwhile, the Trisolaran First Fleet also received the final instructions from the civilization. After shutting down all defenses, all kinds of weapons poured out and fired at the friendly ships that were originally part of the same fleet.

Having not witnessed the fate of the two fleets, the Trisolaran leader's body hunched over considerably the moment the communication ended. His once tall and imposing frame seemed to have lost its spine, and he suddenly became dejected.

"Hopefully, civilization can continue as a result."

After spending three minutes adjusting his mindset, when the planetary crash was more than halfway complete, the leader went back online to the Supreme Council and then took out the Civilization Certificate that symbolized the will of the Trisolaran civilization.

The triple star system within Alpha Centauri is bound by a dark chain, and the three planets enter an eternal era on a man-made perfect trajectory that people dare not even dream of.

This certificate of civilization embodies the future that the Trisolaran civilization most desires.

"Everything started with me, and it should end with me."

Staring at this testament to civilization, the leader rallied and connected the footage of the Supreme Council to the Dawn.

This was a very special occasion because the Trisolarans' unique physical structure meant that exposing themselves to others meant revealing their true inner selves.

"Lady Laura, this... is our answer."

All the leaders in various fields of the Trisolaran civilization appeared and stood in the very center. The Trisolaran leader held the engraving that symbolized the civilization's glory and announced the civilization's final choice to Laura.

The fundamental force modifier shut down, the force generator shut down... and then the last device stopped operating. The Proof of Civilization completely lost its power to float in the air, the Triad Chains and the Trisolaran planet completely separated, and finally crashed to the ground.

"From this moment forward, the Trisolaran civilization will pledge its allegiance to you!!!"

"Pfft, hahaha, so the Trisolaran civilization is really an interesting existence."

Upon hearing the Trisolaran leader's oath of allegiance, Laura, who was already on the verge of losing her temper, broke down and laughed out loud: "It's decided, Laura will not destroy the Trisolaran civilization."

The Trisolarans' unique physical structure means that when they present themselves to others, they are essentially revealing their innermost thoughts. Laura learned of their decision when the Trisolaran leader connected with the projection.

We will exchange the loyalty of civilization for the survival of civilization.

By giving the Trisolaran civilization a chance to convince herself, Laura also conveyed a special signal to them—the Dark Forest theory had been completely shattered in her hands.

But if the Trisolaran civilization wanted to truly express its surrender, it had to make a sacrifice. Clearly, the fleet representing the civilization's last vestiges of space warfare and its hope for the future willingly became the price to pay.

The space bridge was activated, and Laura traversed several astronomical units, appearing directly at the Supreme Council.

Without fear, Laura arrived at the most heavily guarded location of the Trisolaran civilization. Ignoring the group of Trisolarans taller than herself around her, she then approached the Trisolaran leader.

The portion of the shattered proof of civilization representing the Trisolaran planet automatically rose up and eventually hovered beside Laura.

"Lola doesn't care about the loyalty of the Trisolaran civilization, and she can also bring you a star system suitable for survival, because one thing was destined from the very beginning."

"Your civilization will belong to the stars."

Laura solemnly handed the Trisolaran Planet Certificate to the Trisolaran leader and smiled at him.

Also returned were two Trisolaran fleets, all undamaged.

It was written by [username] in the group (data deleted). Those who know, know. Let's all go!

Ladies and gentlemen, I've figured it out: if you want to post something, you have to keep posting every day.

They rolled around together, pulling the dock worker who wrote the book mentioned above. (JPG)

141. Long live the Trisolaran civilization! All for the sake of the stars!

After gaining the allegiance of the Trisolaran civilization, Laura kept her word and decisively moved the entire Trisolaran planet to the Starry Universe, placing it in a star sector of the Milky Way that had not yet been explored by any civilization.

In fact, without the threat of the Trisolaran system, the Trisolaran civilization, with its advanced technology, could quickly transform the originally harsh surface into a highly adaptable and vibrant environment.

However, Laura still created a Gaia planet on the spot as a gift for the Trisolaran civilization.

Meanwhile, after arriving in the new universe, a large number of the Trisolaran civilization's technologies related to dimensions became completely ineffective. However, since the foundation was still intact, it was not difficult to relearn and restore them.

What truly surprised the Trisolaran civilization was the data on faster-than-light travel routes left behind by Laura.

Faster-than-light travel routes, for some reason, exist in the Trisolaran universe, but because their hiding places are so deep and hidden, compared to the Starry Sky universe, they even seem to be suppressed, so few civilizations have been able to discover them.

To some extent, this could be considered a case of misdirecting one's technological development.

For the Trisolaran civilization, the undefended trans-space routes between star systems in the universe meant a wealth of resources: the civilization would not be confined to a single star system, and resource extraction would become effortless.

In the Trisolaran universe, due to limited resources, many scientific research projects could only remain on paper. However, the environment of the Stellar universe allowed the Trisolaran civilization to see the possibility of turning these projects into reality.

"This is Laura's universe, so you don't need to worry about the Dark Forest Theory. In fact, because we are still in the early stages of a new iteration, the Trisolaran civilization is still quite powerful."

In fact, if the Trisolaran civilization had absorbed the technological trends of the Stellar Universe and obtained sufficient resources, it could have become the strongest civilization in the Stellar Universe.

After all, the current iteration is still very weak, and compared with the Trisolaran civilization, the foundation of other emerging civilizations is still too shallow.

After giving a preliminary description of the star system, Laura gave the Trisolaran leader an encouraging look.

"So you can live here without worry. Of course, if possible, it would be best if you did not interfere with the development of other young civilizations. If the Starry Universe needs anything, the Trisolaran civilization will also do its part."

"Well then, I wish you a civilized and pleasant time!"

Her figure finally disappeared, and Laura returned to the Dawn in the Trisolaran universe. After Laura left, a group of highly authoritative research officers within the Trisolaran civilization surrounded her.

"Leader, the new universe and the near-peaceful cosmic environment present an opportunity for our civilization! We have been chosen by Lady Laura, and the Trisolaran civilization will inevitably become the number one civilization in the universe!"

"That's right."

The Trisolaran leader nodded, then quickly made a decision: "Immediately recall all personnel from the Fireseed Fleet. After completing environmental modification and colonizing Gaia, immediately focus on developing scientific research."

"As you all have heard, Lady Laura's request is that we can mine resources in uninhabited star systems, but we must not expose the existence of the Trisolaran civilization unless absolutely necessary."

"Compared to the original universe, the universe we live in now is undoubtedly more suitable for development. Whether for our own benefit or because we have lost our empathy for who knows how long, we must find a way to maintain this universe."

"From Lady Laura's words, we can infer that her purpose in arriving in the Dark Forest universe is definitely not simple, so we must quickly advance our technology."

"We can trade with Huanyu for relatively basic civilization technology databases and interstellar intelligence. But for more advanced ones, we must develop them ourselves."

Before leaving, Laura also handed over the contact information of the universe to the Trisolaran civilization. The universe's first official galactic-level client that was not from its own civilization was born. The Trisolaran leader did not intend to leave such a huge platform unused.

The Trisolaran leader's decision was to complete the rule revisions for the technology as quickly as possible, and then trade them directly to the universe in exchange for a large amount of scarce resources to verify the theoretical technology.
