Fooling Tomoko into being a system

Chief Military Officer: "Reason!"

“There are various reasons for the attack on the Trisolaran civilization, and the most likely reason is the concerns of cosmological sociologists.

Stars + light flight contrails are considered to be a great threat by super civilizations. In order to prevent the possibility of reducing the speed of light in the universe, light particles are used to attack us. "

The chief cultural and educational officer frowned, "Does a super civilization use light particles to attack the dark forest?"

"This is not the crux of the problem. I judge that the other party belongs to a super civilization because the other party may have more advanced cosmic observation tools. It can search for whether there are light flight trails near large swaths of stars in the universe, and then use AI to emit light particles to strike."

The source of the cosmic sociologist's uneasiness has finally been found. His intuition is right. The danger of stars and their wakes attracts not ordinary civilizations, but the hostility of all super civilizations in the entire universe.

"Although the type of Dark Forest strike we detected was light particles, the light particle strike could not have been launched three years ago.

So I guess the super civilization has the means to deliver super-light weapons. They drop light particles near the Trisolaran civilization and then move forward at nearly the speed of light.

As for why it is the type of light particles, it is because it is economical and casual.

This is likely to be an attack by an AI program. As long as the observation system detects a contrail near a star, it will automatically attack. "

The chief military officer still wants to struggle, "Aren't you afraid of hitting the wrong target when using AI to carry out strikes? Aren't you afraid of exposing yourself?"

"Of course I'm not afraid. For super civilizations, light particles can be wasted at will. They can use dark forests to strike and launch star coordinates. The best way is to send out light-speed spacecraft and use strikes on the light-speed spacecraft.

You can't use your own star to send messages like Luo Ji. This behavior is seeking death. "

The cosmic sociologist's eyes lit up and his eyes were full of hope. He seemed to have thought of something.

"Can we defend against Dark Forest strikes?"

The Chief Agricultural Officer laughed at himself, "Defense? How to defend? Although the light particle attack seems very low-level, it is also an infinite mass near the speed of light. The mass is astonishingly powerful under the speed of light, and one blow is enough to destroy a star."

Several other people were not optimistic about the cosmological sociologist and shook their heads. Only the chief science and technology officer said, "No, we may have a way!"

"Huh?" xN

The chief technology officer instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the conference room. If there was a way to avoid the attack of the dark forest, who wouldn't want to?

"Tell me, how can the Trisolaran civilization avoid the impact of light particles?"

“The principle of light particle impact is based on the special theory of relativity. The mass of an object increases with the increase of speed. When the speed of an object approaches the speed of light, its mass tends to infinity.

The light particles fly towards the target at a speed extremely close to the speed of light, using the relativistic effect to increase their mass dramatically, destroying the stellar structure with the huge kinetic energy generated by infinite mass, detonating the star and destroying the entire stellar system. "

The chief technology officer's explanations are simple and easy to understand.

"We have a light speed spacecraft that can use a curvature drive engine to create a deceleration black zone and reduce the near-light speed of light particles to an acceptable range. In this way, the light particles will lose infinite mass and the impact will not be able to destroy the star!"

Hearing the chief science and technology officer describe the defense plan, the chief agricultural officer and others were very excited because the plan seemed to be executable.

Only the Archon had a cold face, "There are three light particles. It's difficult for us to determine the path of attack. We only have 24 hours. Can we create a low-speed black zone to protect the star?"
