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

Wade looked at Cheng Xin indifferently, but a sneer that Cheng Xin was familiar with couldn't help but appear on his face.

That smile was the kind of sneer he would show when he admired the desperation of others.

"The bullets of this gun are specially made for underwater shooting. It is said that they can be stored for a long time. But now it has been more than 270 years, and I don't know if it can still be used."

Wade's tone was very indifferent, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.

boom!

With an explosion, Cheng Xin saw a trace of fire burst out from the AD era weapon.

Then, her right shoulder seemed to be punched hard, and the impact pushed her against a wall behind her.

"Why?!"

Cheng Xin said the first words she said to Wade in three centuries. She felt no pain, only a soft numbness in her right shoulder.

Vader replied: "To be the Sword Bearer, I want to be the Sword Bearer, and you will compete with me, and you will win."

"I don't have any ill will towards you personally. Whether you believe it or not, I'm even a little sad now."

Under Cheng Xin's angry gaze, Wade sighed like a cat crying over a mouse.

She asked: "You killed Vadim, right?!"

After Cheng Xin mentioned this name, Vader's expression changed slightly.

The audience also learned about this little-known past event through Cheng Xin's memories.

Vadim, Cheng Xin's colleague and Vader's subordinate, are ten men with outstanding professional knowledge and the courage to sacrifice their lives for humanity.

Such an outstanding scholar died in an "unexpected" car accident.

At that time, Cheng Xin also noticed something was wrong, but she didn't make any further connections.

But now that I thought about it carefully, I realized that Vadim’s death was so strange!

Wade looked at Cheng Xin who was slumped against the wall and said with a smile: "Yes, I killed Vadim because he was needed for the Ladder Plan."

"But now, my new plan doesn't need you, so I will kill you too.

"You are all outstanding, but all the chess pieces in the way should be cleared. I can only move forward, by any means necessary!"

As he spoke, the pistol in Vader's hand spurted flames again.

The bullet penetrated Cheng Xin's left abdomen, but she still felt no pain.

But her whole body lost its support in the soft numbness, and finally she slowly fell down along the wall.

At this moment, the audience outside the video was already in a frenzy.

"I wonder, is this person sick?!"

"This is not the first time. I remember he did this last time in order for Yun Tianming to be successfully elected as the executor of the Ladder Plan!"

"This guy is absolutely anti-human!! Catch him quickly, don't let him continue to harm others!"

Obviously, the audience who stepped into Cheng Xin's perspective were naturally disgusted with such a crazy Vader.

"Stop talking about this, I feel like Cheng Xin is going to die. Isn't that the protagonist we agreed on?!"

"Don't panic, someone will definitely come to the rescue. Don't forget that Cheng Xin lived to that point in [Past Beyond Time]!"

The subsequent plot was naturally as expected by the audience. Just when Vader was about to press the fatal trigger, a laser suddenly shot from the sky.

Then, Vader's right hand holding the gun disappeared instantly under the blazing temperature!

Wade seemed not to notice the pain, but instead looked up at the sky thoughtfully.

In the direction he was looking up, a flying police car swooped down at high speed.

Before they landed on the ground, several heavily armed policemen jumped out of the air with guns in their hands.

Behind these policemen was Ai AA, whose eyes were dim with tears. She rushed towards Cheng Xin as her vision was gradually blurring.

At the last moment before falling into coma, Cheng Xin finally asked the question in her mind.

"What is a sword bearer?!"

After Cheng Xin woke up from a coma, from Ai AA's narration, the audience finally realized how complex the three seemingly simple words "sword bearer" have to the human beings in the future world!

"There is no doubt that the dark forest deterrence Luo Ji established against Trisolaris is the greatest achievement in human history, bar none!"

"But the wall-facing plan that ultimately produced this feat is considered by today's humans to be an extremely childish and absurd move."

Ai AA said with a confused look.

"Absurd move?"

Cheng Xin obviously couldn't understand this statement.

Ai AA replied: "Because humans at that time were like children who had just entered society, full of fear and confusion about the dangerous outside world."

"The Wall-Facing Project is the product of human beings born under this kind of spiritual impact."

Then, Ai AA told Cheng Xin a story after the deterrence was vaguely established:

After the Trisolaran civilization was forced to compromise, Luo Ji handed over the control of deterrence to the United Nations and Starfleet International. Most people believed that the legend of the Wall-Facing Project, a historical coincidence, was over.

People began to think deeply about deterrence itself, and a new discipline was derived from this: deterrence game science.

After further analyzing the deterrence system, humans came to a more profound conclusion hidden behind the dark forest deterrence system.

In a deterrence system similar to the dark forest, taking humans as an example, deterrence based on the consequences of both the deterrer and the deteree dying is called "ultimate deterrence".

The difference from other types of deterrence is that once [ultimate deterrence] fails, the subsequent remedial measures are meaningless.

Because the premise for the establishment of [ultimate deterrence] is that the opponent must be convinced that once the opponent has any behavior that exceeds the bottom line, deterrence operations will definitely be triggered.

The academic community has also created a new sociological concept for this purpose, namely deterrence.

After discussion, these scholars believe that only if the deterrence degree remains above 80, ultimate deterrence can be successful.

Later, people discovered an extremely frustrating fact: if the deterrence power of the dark forest is in the hands of a large group of humans, then the deterrence degree is almost 0.

After all, it is too difficult for mankind to collectively make the decision to destroy two worlds.

This behavior has far exceeded the moral and value bottom line of human society.

Moreover, if we think about it from another perspective, if deterrence fails, then humans will have at least one generation left to survive.

And once deterrence is successful, destruction may come at any time!

When the consequences of successful deterrence are more unacceptable than failure, human group reactions are predictable.

However, the response of individual humans is unpredictable!

The success of Dark Forest Deterrence is precisely based on Luo Ji’s individual unpredictability!

This is the real reason why deterrence can be successful!.
