[HP] How to properly feed the savior

Chapter 119 The Half-Blood Prince 10

The wizards looked up.On the screen, rough images captured by street cameras are edited into silent shock.Panicked crowds were running on the street. Behind them, the sky was filled with Zerg fleets. Human combat helicopters were quickly wiped out as soon as they appeared. Dozens of stories of buildings were easily destroyed. on the dodging crowd.This can no longer be called a war, it is a one-sided massacre.

"Unbelievable." Cresswell's voice trembled, "There are so many, how long did it take them to breed so many bugs?"

"It's not 'many', but 'one'." He looked at the promotional video he had watched countless times in his childhood, "This is the scene of the second invasion, or the migration of the Zerg is more appropriate. They Translocated a Queen to Earth, and what you see is part of that Queen."

"What?!" exclaimed Digory. "You mean, the so-called queen refers to all of these, these, all of these?!"

"This is just the tip of the iceberg." He shook his head. "The second invasion is the worst war in human history. The Zerg fleet surrounded the entire earth. They want to build the earth into a new colony. Our human life The environment obviously did not satisfy them. What was shown on the screen was that the workers of the Zerg were reorganizing the earth's environment, overthrowing those buildings that were not suitable for the Zerg to live in, destroying those factories that would cause pollution, and purifying the water so that it could be used by the Queen. Adapted. If you pay attention, you will find that the Zerg does not take the initiative to attack humans unless humans attack them first."

"This is what the Zerg mean by peace? Not actively attacking humans?" Cresswell frowned.

"I think they will now pay attention to protecting humans from dying because of their actions." He sighed, the shadow cast by the second invasion on humans is beyond the comprehension of these wizards, even if they can see this memory. "It won't be because they didn't notice the existence of humans at this time."

"What do you mean not noticing?" Diggory shouted excitedly, "Aren't there people running all over the street? Are they blind? Or deaf? Even if it's the screaming and crying of these people, they should pay attention to it." What's up."

"Mr. Diggory, you obviously still think about war from the perspective of a human being, and the limitation of human thinking prevents you from seeing many things." He looked away from the screen, "Come in, the tour of the museum has begun. "

They followed the children who had already lined up into the museum. In the past, he deliberately lagged behind the big group. The accompanying female teacher reminded the active children to keep quiet and follow the line closely, but she didn't seem to see him. behaves the same.Soon, he was separated from the children and wandered around the museum, watching the content that interested him.

"I noticed that you showed unruly traits at an early age," Mr. Diggory reprimanded.

"I think you should notice that I have privileges that ordinary people don't have at a very young age." He glanced at the angry look on the other party's face, and then turned to the headmaster who was carefully checking the contents of the museum display. "Professor Dumbledore, I would like to ask a question, will the transformation of a wizard's Animagus change human vision? I mean, like insects, they have compound eyes, so wizards who transform into insects can see things too Could it be seen with compound eyes?"

"Sorry, I can't answer this question well." Dumbledore looked a little embarrassed. "Although I think I have made outstanding achievements in the field of transfiguration, I really don't know much about Animagus. I think Professor McGonagall will have more say in this aspect. But as far as the Animagus I know As far as Smith is concerned, they have never found any difference in the vision of animal form and human form. But we have not carefully studied whether animals see the same things as humans.”

"It's a pity, if the wizard has experienced seeing the world with different eyes, it will be easier to understand this problem." They stopped at the exhibition area that introduced the body structure of Zerg, which is just a worker insect.In the past, he was looking at Zerg anatomy diagrams on the touch screen. "The Zerg's vision has degraded. They usually live in dark underground tunnels. The Zerg's home planet is too hot and the surface is not suitable for them to live on. They have evolved another ability to replace visible light vision, that It's thermal sensing. But if you ever use a thermal imaging camera... yes, Mr. Weasley, the one you're trying to fiddle with, you'll see running humans and burning Phosphorus-rich thatch didn't make much difference. In other words, they couldn't tell by their vision what was noteworthy."

Diggory and Cresswell exchanged puzzled glances.

"Whether the Zerg's sense of hearing has degenerated depends on the species. For most species, they rely on their bodies to perceive vibrations. Although the principle is similar to that of human hearing, it is hard to say that the function is similar. The most peculiar of the Zerg One thing is, they don't have vocal organs, they can't talk, they only communicate with their minds. In this world, all humans are Muggles, and none of us can communicate with Zerg with mind."

"So... this war is actually, the Zerg didn't find you, and you couldn't talk to the Zerg, and you wanted to fight for the control of the same planet, so you had to go to war?" Cressway tried to understand the whole process, frowning frown. "Muggles in your world are simple, rough creatures. Our world is so lucky to have us wizards."

"If you think you can communicate with the Zerg if you can talk to them, you will find that you are wrong." He thought he knew enough about the Zerg, but he still couldn't grasp the Queen's train of thought. "The thinking of the Zerg is completely different from that of humans. Human thinking is linear, and we can clearly distinguish the past, present and future. For us, time is a straight ray, and it never looks back. But for the Zerg, They can't distinguish what is the past and what is the future. They only have one concept, which is reality. From a human point of view, the Zerg has the ability to predict the future, or in other words, the ability to deduce the future. From the Zerg's point of view, the future is What has happened is a fait accompli."

"What does this mean? Zerg, like centaurs, like to talk about astrology?" Digory chuckled, "No wonder centaurs, who are very territorial, welcome them to settle in Hogwarts."

"The centaurs don't reveal the future to humans, but the Zerg obviously don't care about it, right?" Riddle thought thoughtfully, "They don't have the concept of keeping secrets, they can tell you anything, as long as you can understand what they are saying. "

"But, Tom, you know the future can be changed." He felt that Riddle's morbid obsession with prophecy hadn't fundamentally changed even after so much had passed. "Do you remember the historical consistency theory we discussed?"

"Remember, your ability to prophesy impresses me." Riddle immediately thought of what he was thinking, "Do you think the Zerg gave you the ability to prophesy while granting you magical abilities?"

"They gave me abilities similar to theirs, or a weakened version of their abilities. In my mind, there were many in the past, but only one was remembered by me, and I automatically forgot the others. They are very That might be the case too." Seeing Riddle and Dumbledore staring at each other, he knew that these two top divination students didn't understand what he was talking about. "Linear thinking ability is the premise of logical reasoning, and non-linearity destroys the most basic causal logic. We can assume that there are two possibilities. One is that the Zerg promised that we will be peaceful and not harm humans, and the other is that the Zerg did not agree. The result of the former is that we are willing to release the Zerg and let them live in harmony with other races. The result of the latter is that we continue to hide them. This is a complete human thinking, and the cause and effect are clearly corresponding. But this kind of opposition The understanding of history does not exist in the thinking of Zerg. In their minds, the first kind of past may correspond to the second kind of future, and the first kind of future corresponds to the second kind of past. We let them come out, but they do not Remember what you promised us."

"You may rest assured," said Mr. Diggory with a chuckle, "if they are not sincere about keeping their vows, we will know. There is no place for lies to hide in the exchange of ideas."

"That's right, mind communication cannot deceive the other party, but this does not mean that the content of mind communication is the truth." He felt that communicating with this group of people from the Ministry of Magic was too tiring. "Zergs don't lie. In fact, they only have one consciousness. You don't need to lie to yourself. Therefore, in their evolution, the concept of lying has not been developed. However, this does not mean that they do not understand the concept of lying. Humans Thinking, for them, is a set of lies."

"What do you mean?" asked Mr. Diggory.

"They think humans like to make up stories, and stories are not reality." They followed him in the past. "Humans understand the world by logic. We can stand on the ground instead of floating in the air because of gravity. The light bulb can light up because we inject electricity into it. Muggle science is to use logic to explain In this world, if there is an effect, there must be a cause. This is an inertia of human thinking. And I also said that the non-linear thinking of the Zerg determines that they cannot understand logic. Our logic, in their view, is a lie. It’s a made-up story. If you tell them that because you promised us something in the past, you must abide by the agreement now, they will not understand, they will only think you are making up a story.”

"Can I understand that the Zerg has no credibility at all?" Mr. Creswell swallowed.

"If they remember making an agreement with us, they will abide by it. But if they forget, you have no way to persuade them to comply. And, at that time, you have no power to force them to comply." They came to another showroom. "Here, what you see is the record of the first invasion." He pointed to the photos and satellite aerial images on the wall, "The first invasion happened in the 70s, and the Zerg sent an exploration spacecraft Coming to the earth. The spaceship landed in the coastal area of ​​southern China. The shock wave formed by the shock force when it landed completely destroyed the entire province. In just that moment, hundreds of millions of people were directly evaporated into dust. "

"How did that happen?" Riddle stared at the pictures fascinated.On the satellite aerial image, a piece of scorched black that is obviously not naturally formed can be seen with the naked eye. "If a spaceship is so powerful, why didn't they directly destroy all of you when they invaded the second time?"

"Because it's not weapons that cause this kind of damage, but the protective cover of the Zerg spaceship." He pointed out the model of the Zerg spaceship to them. "The Zerg's exploration spacecraft can fly at sub-light speed. In the state of high-speed flight, even the impact of an object the size of a coin is enough to disintegrate the spacecraft, so their spacecraft will have a protective electrostatic field outside. It is this The electrostatic field of the layer dissociates the creatures on the surface of the earth. Of course, the impact of the spacecraft braking is also an important factor. The earth is probably not in their itinerary plan. They just discovered the earth and decided to land temporarily, so they did not arrive in time. Braking outside the atmosphere led to such consequences."

Everyone listened to his explanation in silence.

"During the second invasion, the Zerg first established a base on an asteroid named Eros not far from the earth, and then set off from that base to fly to the earth. They don't need to travel at sub-light speed, so naturally It will not have that kind of power. Besides, the purpose of the second invasion is for colonization, they will not want to turn the earth into scorched earth, they also need farmland to grow food. Judging from the analysis of the genetic map of the worker insects, The Zerg's colonization strategy is to transform the ecology of the colonized planet, mix the Zerg's genes with the native creatures, and create new species to serve them. Therefore, they will take a more gentle approach to conquer this planet."

"Gentle?" Cresswell asked back in disbelief.

"The Zerg cannot control human consciousness. For them, our minds are too chaotic. Otherwise, they will choose the method of mind control and make all humans their slaves. In the Zerg's world view, creatures can be divided into three types, One is the same as them, with independent consciousness, for example, you wizards belong to this type; They don't think they have independent consciousness and can't be controlled. As for the third kind of creature, they don't care about its life or death."

"But Muggles also have independent consciousness, right?" Cresswell, as the only Muggle-born wizard present, hurriedly emphasized, "Muggles just don't have magical abilities, and they are no different from us in other aspects."

"Yes, but the Zerg didn't know about it at the time." Looking at the worried expressions on the faces of the crowd, he guessed what they were worried about. "No, don't worry that the Zerg will learn the Imperius Curse because of contact with wizards, and then control humans. They don't have the ability to learn, what they have is instinct. Their technology is developed through biological evolution and natural elimination. This kind of development speed is extremely slow, so from the first invasion to the third invasion, the technological level of the Zerg has hardly changed, but humans have invented even more terrifying weapons by learning the technology of the Zerg.”

The female teacher finally appeared, took him away from him, and went to the next projection room. "What you are about to see is the battle to end the Second Invasion. The Second Invasion is utterly hopeless for human beings. Before this invasion, human beings have united and no longer consume resources on internal strife , to develop technology with all our strength. At this time, we are already much more advanced than the technology at the time of the first invasion. However, our efforts can only delay the progress of the Zerg's occupation of the earth, but cannot drive them away. Until this battle, Ma Ze Leihan discovered the queen's secret and discovered that all the worker insects are controlled by the queen, as long as the queen's body is destroyed, they will lose their ability to move."

He has watched Ma Ze's battle countless times, because it is one of the few video materials that allows him to observe the behavior of the Zerg.This was a battle that took place above the clouds. Without the shelter of the building, this group of wizards could finally see how many spaceships there were in a Zerg formation.It is no exaggeration to say that even if all the wizards in the UK were sent out, each with a spaceship, they would not be able to make up the number of warships for a Zerg formation.

"How long will it take for the Zerg to breed so many workers?" Mr. Digory stared at the screen dumbfounded.

"I don't know. Maybe you can consult the Queen. But I can tell you that the scientific name of the Zerg is Ant Race, which comes from the word formic acid. They evolved from social insects similar to ants. In many ways, they still It retains the characteristics of insects. Ordinary household ants, their reproduction speed is 600 worker insects per second. The reproduction speed of Zerg will be much slower, but it is not comparable to human beings."

"The first invasion was a spaceship, but the second invasion became an army enough to encircle a planet." Riddle looked at the promotional video with a serious expression. "How many troops did you face during the third invasion?"

"This question was also what the human experts wanted to answer. Regardless of the opinions of the professors and scholars, there is one thing that everyone agrees on, that is, the third invasion, no matter what, can no longer happen on the earth itself. Because human beings can no longer bear such a loss." At this time, the promotional video was over, and the logo of the International United Fleet appeared on the screen. "So after the second invasion, humans decided to take the initiative and dispatch all combat forces to the Zerg's home planet to wipe out the Zerg in one fell swoop."

The surrounding scene faded.New scenes were slowly being generated, and they entered his next memory. "The first two invasions took place before I was born, so I can only give you a sense of how shadowed my childhood was. The third invasion took place a day before I went to Hogwarts. Years, as the commander-in-chief of this war, I have all the memories about it. But it is too long, too long, we only need to look at some of the most critical fragments..."
