It's reasonable for me to have a two-way foil for a second-level civilization, right?

"Is there no room for detente?"

Lu Yongchang shook his head vigorously: "It's basically impossible."

"As for the reason..."

"First of all, the first need of civilization is survival, isn't that true?"

Hong Qiming nodded solemnly.

Not only true, but quite true.

The current Renlian is in the process of struggling to survive.

"Secondly, in the process of development, a civilization needs more and more resources."

"At least until the multiverse theory is confirmed, the total amount of matter in the universe remains unchanged."

Hong Qiming held his breath suddenly, he already had a bad premonition in his heart: "So..."

There was a faint sneer at the corner of Lu Yongchang's mouth: "To sum up what I told you earlier, before encountering the bottleneck of technological development, the development speed of civilization is getting faster and faster, which is the so-called technological explosion."

"Then, we introduce another chain of suspicion."

"Chain of suspicion?" Hong Qiming frowned tightly.

"Simply put, under the communication barrier, we can't judge whether the other party is good or malicious, and the other party is no different."

"Based on all the above, what do you think will happen if the two civilizations meet?"

The sneer at the corner of Lu Yongchang's mouth became more and more obvious.

Hong Qiming gasped suddenly, and muttered to himself, "War..."

"It's so fucking black..."

The conversation between the two suddenly came to a standstill.

A few minutes later, Hong Qiming came back to his senses, and slowly exhaled a foul breath.

"Okay, I understand the situation." He said solemnly, "I will report this matter to the chairman of the congress."

……

A month later.

"People's Federation News will broadcast the latest news for you."

"Recently, the first laboratory of the People's Federation announced that a major breakthrough has been made in the preparation process of kilometer-scale carbon nanotubes and the production line technology of space elevator cable braiding!"

"It is estimated that the construction of the space elevator [Tower of Babel] will officially start in the near future, and the construction process will be broadcast live..."

"In addition, the first civil starship pilot training program has officially started, and the registration website..."

Zhao Zijie raised his head from the several tomes in front of him, blinking his confused eyes.

Listening to the voice from the TV, his eyes gradually became focused.

"Finally wait..."

While muttering to himself, Zhao Zijie reached out and tapped the keyboard, and entered the URL on the browser page.

The moment you press the Enter key, the page jumps instantly.

……

at the same time.

"Call the ground command center, No. 1 is in good condition and can take off at any time!"

Bai Yixuan's voice sounded on the radio.

next second.

"No. 2 is in good condition and ready to take off at any time!"

"...No. 11 is in good condition, ready to take off at any time!"

As the last announcement fell, Lu Yongchang's voice sounded.

"Approved to fly!"

"Everyone, be safe!"

The moment the words fell, a total of eleven Xuannv-[-] series spaceships took off into the sky!

……

a few hours later.

The world's major video sites and major media have simultaneously launched live broadcasts.

"Everyone, audience friends of the People's Federation, hello everyone, I am the host Bingbing!"

"Today, I will reveal to you the construction process of the space elevator [Tower of Babel]!"

As the sweet voice sounded, the camera screen was turned on.

As the "Starship Reserve Pilot", Zhao Zijie naturally waited in front of the computer early.

Just a few hours ago, he had just signed up online.

According to the prompt, after passing the preliminary theoretical examination in a few days, he will enter the newly established starship piloting training institution for training.

Therefore, he watched this live broadcast not for any reason, but to observe the flight mode of the Xuannv-[-] spacecraft!

and so……

Looking at Bingbing in the live broadcast, he silently clicked the full-screen button.

Just when he was about to appreciate it, he suddenly found that the background of the live broadcast room was a bit weird.

Because of the angle of the camera, Bingbing covered most of the background behind her, leaving only a small part of the picture.

As a modern-day Leeuwenhoek, he immediately recognized an inconspicuous logo in the upper right corner of the frame.

If his memory is correct, this should be the cockpit of Xuannv No. [-], right? !

Sure enough, the next moment, the live broadcast camera quietly changed.

"In order to conduct a better live broadcast, I am now inside Xuannv No. [-]."

"As you can see, in front of us are the eleven Xuannv IIs that will carry out the construction plan of the Tower of Babel!"

The live screen switched again.

In the picture, eleven Xuannv IIs are flying towards the deep space at an elevation angle of 60°, dragging a long blue flame at their tails!

……

beyond geosynchronous orbit.

"Chi... Chi... White team, this is No. 11, I have reached the predetermined deceleration altitude!"

On the radio, a male voice came.

Bai Yixuan turned his head and glanced at the instruments on the console.

8.8 million kilometers.

He silently turned on the radio: "Got it, the 11th is starting to slow down!"

The moment the voice fell, a Xuannv No. [-] suddenly slowed down and left the main force.

……

This scene naturally fell into the camera.

Seeing the countless question marks brushed in the live broadcast room, Bingbing chuckled and began to explain.

"The mission of this Xuannv-10 is different from the other [-]."

"Everyone should know that the manufacturing process of the Tower of Babel space elevator is built from top to bottom. Considering the difficulty of transporting such a huge amount of cables, the cables of the space elevator will be manufactured in space in real time."

"And the task of this Xuannv-[-] is to slowly pull the manufactured cable back to the ground, and this can also prevent the cable from being disturbed by the airflow after entering the atmosphere."

Speaking of this, Bingbing quickly glanced at the barrage in the live broadcast room.

"Huh? What's the role of the other Ten Xuannv No. [-]?"

The corners of Bingbing's mouth rose slightly, and a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes: "Every audience can guess."

"I can tell everyone that the ten Xuannv No. [-] have been specially modified."

……

Shortly after the No. 11 spaceship left the main force, the 1 Xuannv-10s numbered 10-[-] also began to slow down.

After ten minutes.

Under the precise control of the computer, the flying speed of the eleven Xuannv-[-]s is consistent with the rotation speed of the earth. Therefore, if someone watches from the ground, the eleven Xuannv-[-]s will appear in a strange state.

The tail and bottom of the 10 Xuannv-9.1 jetted out faint blue flames and "stopped" on a [-]-kilometer orbit.

As for the No. 11 spacecraft, it quietly "stopped" 1000 kilometers directly below the ten Xuannv-[-].

Chapter 150 Simple Spaceport

After Bai Yixuan confirmed the status of each spaceship, he nodded towards Hong Fan who was beside him.

Hong Fan quickly adjusted the radio frequency band and said in a deep voice.

"Call the ground command center, we have arrived at the scheduled location!"

Because the distance is not far, Lu Yongchang's response came quickly.

"Hey... Received!"

"All drivers, stop all operations."

"Repeat, stop any operation!"

"Next, Zero will take over all tasks!"

As soon as the words fell, the pilots in the eleven Xuannv No. [-] let go of their hands holding the joystick and pressed the automatic cruise switch.

……

in the live room.

"What's the situation? It's been stopped for more than ten minutes, can't it be a card?"

"Are you kidding... Is this thing still stuck?"

"So what's the No. [-] Ten Xuannv going to do? Just stop there?"

"I just suddenly thought of a possibility. You said, these ten Xuannv No. [-] and so on will not be spliced ​​into one big plane?"

"Upstairs, have you watched too many cartoons?"

"..."

While everyone was discussing frantically on the barrage, the originally static picture suddenly began to change.

The flames at the tail of the ten Xuannv No. 9.1 located at an altitude of [-] kilometers suddenly became a little bigger.

Under everyone's gaze, the No. [-] Cross Xuannv lined up in a straight line.

"Damn...won't it really be the story upstairs?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible! How can this thing become a big plane?"

"Just kidding, if this thing can transform, I will eat this computer screen on the spot... Fuck!!!"

In the picture, the cabin of the ten Xuannv No. [-] slowly "splits" from the upper part.

Under the action of hinges and hydraulic system, these "steel plates" are gradually flattened.

Just like the solar panels of a satellite are unfolded, after the cabin of the cuboid Xuannv-[-] is unfolded, a flat platform is formed.

As for the cockpit and engine, they were completely separated on both sides of the platform.

Next, Xuannv No. [-], which was unfolded by the ten frames, was connected in turn to form a larger steel platform.

At the moment when the splicing was completed, light blue flames spewed out from several remodeled small Hall thruster nozzles below the platform, and the exhaust flame from the engine nozzles on the side of the platform also weakened a bit.

Seeing this extremely sci-fi scene, the live broadcast room completely exploded.

"Fuck, fuck, fuck!"
