Probably because he felt the professor's interest, Xiao Hui's conversation gradually became more interesting: "My creators firmly believe that the wisdom of the group will surpass the brute force of the individual. Even a superman should
It is an integral part of civilization. Everyone firmly believes that they are the masters of this civilization, and they are also the masters of this universe, so there was a golden age that lasted for an era."
Professor Zinov was happy: "Haha, I wanted to raise a few eyebrows at first. You know, according to what you just said, isn't it the structure of ants and bee colonies that is the most perfect evolution of civilization? You
But I have already answered in advance.”
"Everyone has to be a master. This is called a human being, but everyone is not asked to be a cell. Civilization without people is meaningless." Xiao Hui also laughed, and then changed his words:
"However, the existence of these concepts of domination and dominance was originally for the birth of order and was an essential step for civilization. However, this is not the purpose of civilization. If it is allowed to exist for too long, it will become a resource and the mind
And the internal friction of time. No matter what kind of civilization it is, if it wants to evolve, it should come out of the cradle."
Hui paused for a moment, with a very humane regret in his voice: "I'm sorry that the civilization of this generation has not yet reached this point. I am also very fortunate that some people are starting to do this."
Professor Zinov once again fell into a brief thought, and then said: "...So, what is the next step in the evolution of civilization? Where is your great enlightened civilization that created, no, gave birth to you now?"
"This is a forbidden matter." Hui chuckled.
Professor Zinov muttered: "I always feel that you have never said this to anyone else."
"Is this the keen sense of smell of scientists? Hahahahaha, you should obviously be the most materialistic people who pay the most attention to practical evidence and logic, but you are often the most metaphysical people."
"I personally think that whether it is spiritual energy, mysticism, metaphysics or intuition, it can always be explained using mathematical models. This is the direction that civilization should move forward, but if I ask you, I am afraid it will be forbidden again.
Matters?"
"Maybe it's because I don't know either."
Professor Zinov said with his eyes: "Then, why do you want to tell me these things?"
"Because you are not interested in these things." Gray lady answered matter-of-factly.
Professor Zinov couldn't help but be startled, and then he had to admit that this mysterious enlightened visitor was indeed true.
He is different from his old friend Zhuang Ran. The latter does experimental physics after all. He needs engineers and factories to turn his research into images, and he always needs to have a lot of contact with society.
As for me, although I also have experimental work, and although I am the biggest operator who has started to integrate space bubble technology into the earth, my main business is theoretical research after all. What is the saying? The end of science is theology.
The more you study basic physics, the fillings in your brain will gradually turn into various microscopic particles, and you will become less and less empathetic to the real world, and then you will start to pay attention to the fate of the macroscopic universe.
Professor Zinov knows that he is indeed not very interested in the future of the community or the future of civilization of this generation. However, he is still a human being after all, and he is still very interested in the fate of individuals.
And when these interested individuals put their efforts in this remote star region, even a guy like him, who is called a cold-blooded animal by students, will inevitably have a hint of excitement and longing for the future.
"Gray Lady, what will we gain when the Star Planter dies?"
"A lot of Endor. In fact, with your accumulated knowledge, you can already guess most of them."
"So what's the price?"
"It depends on the choice of values." Hui paused and said with a smile: "Look, the soldiers on those warships have not received any high-end education. They also have no idea why we want to hunt down the star planter.
I understand, but they didn't flinch. Professor, what do you think is the reason?"
Professor Zinov looked at the starry sky in the distance, but at this time, with his naked eyes, he could only see a comet heading towards the depths of the abyss of space. The orange light that was as bright as the sun before could not be seen.
They are almost unrecognizable.
"You are a prophet, Gray Lady. Therefore, it is better to discuss this issue with the young leader of the Pioneer Party and Mr. Qi. He is on his way here, but he still has not arrived before the war breaks out."
Professor Zinov laughed and waved his hand gracefully: "After today, I will forget everything you said to me. There are too many meaningless things in my mind, leaving less room for correct knowledge.
.”
Although he said this, the thin Professor Zinov drank the half bottle of vodka next to him, and then his whole body was once again filled with the abundant firepower of a twenty-year-old youth, and he opened the terminal and the calculation board. He once again turned his attention.
All the energy was put on the space formula just imagined, and he no longer cared about the battle situation on the scene.
However, although he no longer cared about the battle situation, he was still as focused as a warrior.
At that moment, his expression was no different from that of the officers and men on the twelve Sentinel-class arsenal ships.
Therefore, at that time, the Blue Star Community's authoritative scientist in theoretical physics and space concept technology, one of the smartest people on earth, had exactly the same mental state as a group of old and rough sailors with almost no higher education.
.
These old-fashioned firepower warships with an average age of more than half a century smashed half of the thermonuclear missiles in the magazine in a short period of time. This intensive bombing amount actually exceeded the safety warning line for bombing.
.
Now, these old warships feel overwhelmed. Of course, the damage control team has already carried the buckets, but at last they did not die.
At this time, Xiaguang had also forwarded the calculation results from Jiuzhang, and also indicated possible energy nodes.
"In other words, you want us to concentrate our firepower on these places?"
"This is quite simple! As it is now, even the radio telescopes are up and down, so it would be great if they can hit them all!"
"So, get closer and then fight?"
"Are you kidding? We are arsenal ships, not Titans and Dreadnoughts. Have you ever heard of archers charging without drawing their bows and carrying knives?"
"Well, let me tell you, the second master is a horse archer!"
The captains quickly discussed it, but did not come to a conclusion. At this time, the order from the Xiaguang came again, requiring their entire fleet to try their best to ensure the hit rate, and the entire fleet should be allowed to approach the target.
"The condition of our ships..."
"The damage control team came to report. The engine is not a big problem, but the hull has begun to be damaged from the previous extreme attack. If we continue to move forward and maintain this bombardment, we don't have to wait for the enemy to attack, and our own ship will be finished first!" There are 6!
The captain of the USS loudly said: "We have done everything, it is really enough."
This captain is hired from outside the guard fleet, and is more like a mercenary than a soldier. This is actually the current situation of most sector guard fleets.
However, Colonel Ducasse, the captain of the Sentinel 1 ship and the temporary admiral of the interceptor squadron, said coldly: "Do you think that having fired three rounds of missiles is worthy of the reward issued to you by the sector government?"
Salary?”
He is a native of New China and was born in a serious shipping system. His mentality is certainly different from the former.
"I, you, but..."
"All the officers and men of the garrison fleet have been given priority in the public housing construction. You have all seen the design drawings. It is a three-story building with an area of at least 400 square meters, with an independent garden, a garage and a public green space. I hope you will think about it carefully.
, if you let that giant beast escape, escape to Baichuan Star, or even run to Bai Yujing, what will happen to your family who just moved there!"
Colonel Ducasse ended the call and then personally drove the No. 1 arsenal ship to speed forward.
Because he took the lead, the hesitant captains naturally followed. It was only when everyone could see the long tentacles flying behind Leviathan with their naked eyes that Colonel Ducasse asked:
"Can I aim now?"
"The optical sight is still drifting...but, try it manually!" the gunnery commander replied.
This time, the twelve old-fashioned arsenal ships whose hulls had been damaged once again launched a large number of ultra-long-range missiles carrying thermonuclear warheads. Due to the interference of strong magnetic field phenomena, the gunners no longer expected these missiles to be able to track the enemy.
, but at such a close distance, they can at least set a ballistic trajectory in advance.
Before the missiles that left the bow could hit the target, the arsenal ships slightly adjusted their angles and began bombarding with rail guns. It could be said that they used all their eighteen martial arts skills.
Of course, for these old ships that are more than half a century old, if it was the old man who fired the missile salvo just now, it is the old man who wields the sledgehammer now. In the moment of the rail gun salvo,
, the crew even felt that the capacitors of the gun crew were whining overwhelmed.
However, their attacks were effective. In a short period of time, most of the impact points landed on the so-called energy nodes on the barrier.
Immediately afterwards, the latest "calculation results" from the Jiuzhang came to the Xiaguang.
"The energy shield of the Star Planter has dropped by 12%." Deng Zhengqing suppressed the excitement in his heart and said seriously: "Our attack selection is effective!"
Brigadier General Bazin let out a sigh of relief: "Send a report to New China 2 and prepare to rule them!"
"It has been done. New Shenzhou 2 is expected to receive the report in five minutes. The captain and deputy captain are both elite officers and will make wise choices."
The captain and deputy captain are both your classmates, are you actually praising yourself? Brigadier General Bazin thought.
Since the bombardment of the arsenal ships had an excellent effect, the pursuit fleet immediately began to accelerate, preparing to join the close-range bombardment of the Star Planters. However, at this moment, they saw Levi, who was like a star.
The giant tank beast fiddled with the long "comet tails" behind it, and then more "immune cells" came out from behind the brilliant energy barrier, and pounced on those who were trying hard to wave the giant cannon.
arsenal ships.
A terrifying monster like an abyss demon emerged from behind the glorious orange-red holy halo, as if it were an omnipotent supreme god, unleashing its malice into the universe unscrupulously.
The interception fleet just now composed of an old frigate and several light warships has indeed successfully blocked those "immune cells" and played a role in blocking the rear for the entire army. As for the quality and size of a single wheel, the arsenal ship is comparable to those equipped with
Light cruisers and destroyers full of anti-aircraft guns are much more majestic, and it seems that there is no need to fear these little space monsters. But in fact, the quality of this type of ship is all to carry more ultra-long-range weapons and ammunition.
The design really lacks protective capabilities.
In this era where overall defense is greater than offense, these arsenal ships are very rare and thin-skinned. In fleet decisive battles, they have always been the favorite hunting targets of individual fighters and small assault ships. As long as they are knocked out
They can greatly disrupt the enemy fleet's firepower, and can also give themselves gorgeous military exploits. Why not?
Only a stubborn Don Quixote would really fly a small aircraft to fight against those rough-skinned, fleshy, and powerful battleships.
The scene at the scene indeed reminded the crew members on the arsenal ship of a very bad scene.
"Retreat." Another captain said.
"We can't retreat! With the speed of our old sentries and the current condition of the ship, we can't run fast at all. Once we turn to face the enemy from behind, we will just face massacre!" Colonel Ducasse said solemnly: "Besides, we also
No order to retreat has been received! Maintain your front! Keep firing!"
The captain of the No. 6 ship responded loudly: "You are such an incomprehensible madman! This kind of mindless mission, to this extent, is worthy of the salary! If you want to die, go yourself! I won't accompany you...ah
!”
Along with the captain's scream, there was a burst of noise in the communication channel, and then a young voice came: "Sentinel 6 will always maintain the front line and never retreat."
"you……"
"My subordinate is Warrant Officer Piri Lehman. He is a student of Class 833 of the Strategic Studies Department of the Central National Defense University and is currently interning on Sentinel 6." The young voice said.
...Okay, another lunar man. Colonel Ducasse knew that the lunar man was very good at seizing power from the nominal superiors during his internship, but he didn't expect that this time he would be more ferocious and snatch it away directly.
A large battleship.
Of course, what he didn't know was that Warrant Officer Lehman was actually a member of the Lionheart Club and a reserve member of the New Youth Club. He felt that he was purely out of public interest and was directly enforcing battlefield discipline.
In addition, this child actually resolutely enforced battlefield discipline on the captain after he read the pamphlet "On Military and Political Work (crossed out) and the Importance of Supervision System" written by his most admired senior chairman.
He feels that returning combat units to their essence is part of the job of grassroots officers.
Of course, Warrant Officer Lehman did a very good job in the other aspect of "supervisor (zheng) guide (wei)". During the six months he came to the New China Guard Fleet for internship, although he did not exhaust the ordinary crew members
He became his best friend and follower, but he succeeded in turning this young "man on the moon" into a member of the lower-level officers and soldiers.
This is probably why he was so successful in enforcing battlefield discipline.
The veteran Colonel Ducasse knew that there were many members of the New Youth Club in the New China Guard Fleet, but he did not think in that direction.
In any case, after such an episode, the arsenal ships still maintained almost the same speed as Leviathan and continued to bombard them tirelessly, as if the swarms of space monsters rushing towards them did not exist at all.
.
Ten minutes later, the arsenal fleet responsible for the bombardment mission had completed more than 70% of the ammunition. At the same time, the victims of the first, second and third ships also appeared one after another.
