Chapter 538 They All Went on a Long Voyage
Could it be that the civilizations in the galaxy three billion years ago were unified by a common ideal? If so, then this is really incredible.
Perhaps, only in a unified and harmonious galaxy can a civilization have such an idea.
Perhaps thinking of this possibility, everyone present was envious. At least if the current Milky Way was like that, the human solar system might not be destroyed.
With doubts in their minds, some people couldn't help but mutter: "Three billion years ago, was the Milky Way so harmonious?"
"It's not bad, at least everyone is moving towards a goal with our efforts." Naturally, such murmurs could not be hidden from the rhombus crystal, and its voice continued: "Whether it is due to pressure or other reasons. Oh, Aren’t the new generation civilizations in the Milky Way united under one goal?”
Everyone was silent in response to the rhombus crystal's rhetorical question.
No one is surprised that the rhombus crystal does not know the current form of the Milky Way. After all, it has been sleeping for three billion years and only woke up after encountering humans.
"We don't know, maybe they have a common goal." Yue Yuan, the leader, said, and then told all the news about the galactic civilization that humans know, including the fact that the human solar system was bombed, and What humans know about the many civilizations plundering planets for life.
If the records in the Red Flame Civilization Database are correct, several level six civilizations in the galaxy have great voyage goals, but other civilizations are not known.
"It's normal. It seems that what you know is wrong. After all, you can't even be considered an advanced civilization." The rhombus crystal sighed in his words: "The destruction of your home planet actually happened in the Milky Way three billion years ago. There will also be wars at any time when there is no strong civilization in the galaxy. We have also emerged from wars step by step. At any time, force is the guarantee for the continuation of civilization.
Three billion years ago, we and other civilizations also reached a consensus and set sail together because they all saw the desperate reality. Regarding the destruction of your home planet, perhaps it is not appropriate for me to make any remarks about giving up hatred, but since you have successfully triggered me, I still want to say to you, no matter whether we find a civilization that destroyed your home planet in the future, Please remember the voyage. "
What this means is that the Pioneers are a powerful civilization in the galaxy.
Of course, the rhombus crystal said it very euphemistically, and it didn't have the condescending way of speaking that humans think of advanced civilizations.
This made everyone a little flattered.
"Don't worry, we will never forget the voyage. As long as we have the ability, we will definitely follow the pace of the pioneers and embark on the voyage."
"very good."
At this time, a scientist asked: "Can you tell us what the Great Voyage was about? Do you know where your civilization has sailed to now and what its destination is?"
After hearing the scientist's words, everyone looked forward to it with eager anticipation. Everyone was curious about what the so-called voyage was about.
In fact, humans still know something about this aspect.
At the beginning, the Awakeners told humans that the reason why they came to the galaxy was to pursue some path of wisdom, but they were not clear about it, and humans were not sure if the same was true for the pioneers.
After all, the Awakeners are just a galaxy that requires the help of seventh-level civilization ruins to reach, but the Pioneers seem to have just won, because they actually organized the Galaxy Voyage.
"Well, about this aspect, due to time, some of my information has been lost, especially the information about the destination." The rhombus crystal said again about the loss of information.
Regarding this news, everyone here was silent and disappointed, but they could understand it. After all, after three billion years, it was already very powerful for the rhombus crystal to wake up again.
The technology displayed by the rhombus crystal is far beyond human imagination. There is no need to lie to such an existence. If other civilizations of the same level told humans to remember to go to a certain place and told humans the location of that place, humans would probably first think about whether it was a conspiracy.
"You said that three billion years ago, all the civilizations that were willing to embark on a long voyage with you left. Are they all advanced civilizations in the galaxy?" At this time, Gander, who had been silent, asked,
"Most civilizations below level six civilization. All level six civilizations have left with us." Diamond Crystal said.
"So that's the Huofermi Paradox." Hearing this answer, Gander let out a long sigh of relief. At first, he had guessed about the fault line in the universe's civilization, but he didn't expect it to be like this.
The hypothesis of a civilizational window period has actually been confirmed by rhombus crystals.
If it is true as the pioneers said, they took away the sixth-level civilization and almost all advanced civilizations in the Milky Way three billion years ago, then there must be a civilizational window period.
All high-level civilizations have disappeared, and the remaining low-level civilizations can only sigh in despair when faced with such a vast galaxy. Of course, it is possible for them to develop into an advanced civilization during the civilizational window period, but it must be very, very difficult.
Because it is not difficult to see from the words of the pioneers that the Great Voyage three billion years ago cannot be just a simple journey for everyone. This is a major event for the entire galaxy. Those who follow the pioneers on the Great Voyage, or It is a civilization that pursues and has ideals, or it is a civilization with great potential.
The rest are probably some fallen civilizations that may have disappeared in three billion years.
In the Earth era, there is a formula to calculate the number of observable extraterrestrial civilizations that should exist in the Milky Way. The calculation factors include the number of stars in the Milky Way, the proportion of stars with planets to all stars, the average number of Earth-like planets around stars, the probability of life evolving on Earth-like planets, the probability of evolution from primitive life to highly intelligent life, the probability of highly intelligent life sending signals that can be observed by human civilization, and the proportion of the duration of technological civilization in the life cycle of the planet.
The meaning represented by each term in the equation is progressive, and the basic idea is to calculate the probability of the next event occurring when the previous condition is met.
Of course, the equation also has two other factors to express, namely the average rate of star formation in the Milky Way and the life span of technological civilization.
This expression is in line with the view of mediocrity theory, that is, the Earth is not special, but just a typical planet with the same laws and phenomena as other celestial bodies.
From the current situation, there are many aliens. The fundamental reason why they have not visited the Earth is that they have all gone on a long voyage, so that there is a big window period in the civilization of the Milky Way.
Humans happened to be born and grew up in this window period. Other civilizations, sooner or later, did not have an obvious generation gap like the pioneers.
Of course, this is also because human civilization has only entered the information age for a few hundred years in the Earth era. This time is too short for the scale of the universe. Perhaps those civilizations that have become advanced civilizations first did not discover humans due to these factors.
Innocent humans even shouted to the universe: We are so lonely.
Little did they know that this was a short-lived coincidence. The destruction of the solar system shattered all dreams.
