Chapter 23 I'm Really Not Yun Tianming
Chapter 23 I'm Really Not Yun Tianming
Even if he knows the other party is lying, he has no way to deal with them right now.
The premise for him to be able to deter the Trisolarans is that the Trisolarans are afraid of the Dark Forest attack, but the current Trisolarans are clearly not afraid.
"During this period, did the Trisolarans achieve a major technological breakthrough and find a way to counter the Dark Forest attack?"
"What are those people from the Planetary Defense Council and the World Academy of Sciences doing? Didn't they say they could keep the Trisolarans under surveillance?"
To prevent the Trisolaran world from escaping its deterrent effect after technological advancements, the Planetary Defense Council and the World Academy of Sciences developed a special plan to monitor the Trisolaran world's technological development.
All new technologies in the Trisolaran world, whether they are understandable or not, must first be reported to Earth's human civilization. In other words, the technological development of the Trisolaran world must be under the supervision of human civilization.
However, the Trisolaran world has now secretly developed technology to deal with the Dark Forest attack, which is clearly due to the incompetence of the Planetary Defense Council and the dereliction of duty by the World Academy of Sciences!
"Not only have their technologies advanced, but the Trisolarans have also learned to lie. They must have obtained Yun Tianming's brain and conducted research on it. Perhaps, Yun Tianming..."
Although it has been denied by Sophon, Luo Ji still believes that the Trisolarans have captured Yun Tianming's brain, and have even been doing so for some time.
Luo Ji had a bold conjecture: Yun Tianming might have betrayed humanity, defected to the Trisolarans, and even become a high-ranking member of the Trisolarans. The one who had just manipulated the Sophon to communicate with him was Yun Tianming.
Based on the information he gleaned about Yun Tianming from the documents, it is highly likely that Yun Tianming chose to betray humanity.
Even he sometimes feels like he's not human and doesn't want to stand on the side of humanity.
Luo Ji suddenly asked, "Have you forgotten Cheng Xin?"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yuan, who was in the safe house on the Trisolaran planet, slowly formed a question mark in his mind before realizing what it meant.
Luo Ji is mistaking him for Yun Tianming!
Zhi Zi typed on Luo Ji's retina: Mr. Luo Ji, you have mistaken me for someone else. I am not Mr. Yun Tianming.
Luo Ji didn't believe him and continued, "Now that Cheng Xin has come to this era, don't you want to see her?"
Mr. Luo Ji, let me reiterate, I am really not Mr. Yun Tianming.
Did I really guess wrong?
The thought flashed through Luo Ji's mind. He still felt that the other party was most likely Yun Tianming. However, since others had already denied it three times, if he continued to ask relentlessly, he would only annoy the other party.
He asked, "So, which part of the Three-Body world are you?"
I am the supreme ruler of the Three-Body world.
Was it actually the highest ruler of the Trisolaran world who personally spoke to him?
When he first communicated with the Trisolaran world, Sophon said, "This requires the instructions of the Supreme Ruler." However, he did not speak directly with the Supreme Ruler of Trisolaris that time.
Luo Ji said, "So you are His Excellency the Supreme Ruler. I wonder what your views are on our two civilizations? I sincerely hope that we can coexist peacefully and amicably."
Luo Ji genuinely wanted the Trisolaran and human civilizations to coexist, not for any other reason than that his wife and daughters could live a good life if the two civilizations were friendly and harmonious.
Of course, if there were an opportunity to destroy the Trisolaran civilization without harming human civilization, Luo Ji would definitely seize it.
I will feel guilty for destroying a world and a civilization, but I will never regret it. If I had to choose again, I would still make the same choice.
This is Luo Ji now, possessing the awareness and mindset of a Swordholder, which is why the Trisolaran world consistently assesses his deterrent level between 91.9% and 98.4%.
This human man has an unwavering will; once he makes a decision, he never regrets it, even if it means destroying two civilizations.
It's very simple: dismantle all your gravitational wave antennas, and I can allow you to survive and guarantee that your lives will be better than ever before.
Upon seeing the words appear on his retina, Luo Ji shook his head: "You know, this is impossible. Only cosmic broadcasts can give us some sense of security when facing you. I guarantee that as long as we dismantle the gravitational wave antenna, the water droplet will immediately enter the solar system."
I'm serious. If you dismantle the gravitational wave antenna and live on Earth as a harmless species, I can guarantee your safety. You will live in a utopian world.
Luo Ji laughed, "You even know about Utopia, it seems Your Excellency the Supreme Ruler knows quite a bit about our civilization. But please allow me to refuse. We humans are an intelligent civilization, not livestock kept in captivity. Your Excellency the Supreme Ruler, there is an old saying on our Earth: 'Give me liberty or give me death!'"
Cheng Yuan, on the Trisolaran planet, was squinting at the moment, never expecting that one day he would be sent to Earth to recount old stories.
That would be a shame. I sincerely hope you can disassemble the gravitational wave antenna.
Luo Ji retorted, "You want us to disassemble the gravitational wave antenna, so why don't you all dehydrate yourselves and be transported to the solar system in a spaceship?"
Cheng Yuan didn't let Zhi Zi reply again. It would be difficult to persuade someone as determined as Luo Ji with words.
Luo Ji stopped talking to the Trisolaran world. He turned his gaze away from the front and saw his wife, Zhuang Yan, holding their daughter and standing not far away, quietly watching him.
He walked over, hugged Zhuang Yan, and then touched his forehead to his daughter, saying gently, "Daddy has some things to do and needs to go out for a while. You and Mommy wait for Daddy to come back at home."
After saying that, Luo Ji turned and left. After taking a few steps, Zhuang Yan's voice came from behind him: "No matter what decision you make, Xiaxia and I will always support you!"
Luo Ji paused for a moment, but did not stop, and strode out.
In less than an hour, Luo Ji appeared at the meeting between the United Nations and the Solar System Fleet, where the entire venue was packed with people.
At this moment, these hundreds of people standing at the top of the pyramid of human civilization are listening to Luo Ji speak.
Luo Ji said, "I have already contacted the Trisolaran world and confirmed that the Trisolaran civilization is acting abnormally. They may have already mastered the technology to avoid the Dark Forest attack. Our civilization is now once again at a critical juncture of life and death!"
Upon hearing Luo Ji's words, the faces of everyone in the hall turned extremely grim. The war of apocalypse had not been over for long, and now another crisis was about to arrive?
One person asked, "Mr. Luo Ji, can you guarantee that everything you've said is true?"
Instead of answering, Luo Ji asked, "Do you think I would lie about this? What benefit would I get from it?"
Indeed, this does Luo Ji no good at all.
Because his power as the swordsman comes from deterring the Trisolarans. The essence of this deterrence is not the gravitational wave antenna switch controlled by Luo Ji, but the fact that after the gravitational wave broadcast announces the coordinates of the Trisolaran world to the universe, the Trisolaran world will suffer the Dark Forest attack.
However, since the Trisolaran world is no longer afraid of the Dark Forest attack, the deterrent will naturally become useless, and Luo Ji will also lose his supreme power as the Swordholder.
