How
Normally, Yue Yuan would immediately summon a group of high-ranking officials for a meeting to discuss the supposed impact of the Awakeners on humanity, and what humanity could gain from the Awakeners's appearance. But this time, he did not.
After confirming that the Awakeners did not respond, Yue Yuan simply had his staff copy the conversation between himself and the Awakeners and show it to the relevant personnel.
The Awakeners has already made it very clear, and there are some things that Yue Yuan could easily figure out without discussion.
First, the Awakeners separated the star system where humanity was located, along with eight other stars, from the Great Universe, and said that once humanity reached Level 4 Civilization, they would find a way out.
This shows that humanity is on the right track. The New Particle Collider project does indeed hold promise for enabling Human Civilization to grasp the Grand Unified Theory; otherwise, the Awakeners wouldn't have said such a thing. Of course, this idea is Yue Yuan's judgment based on the Awakeners's emphasis on humanity and its cultivation of humankind.
The statement that "the resources of eight Star System are enough for you to reach Level 4 Civilization" likely refers to another method besides the New Particle Collider.
Secondly, there is the difference in the Awakeners's attitude when communicating with humans, both the first and second time.
The first time, it felt completely casual, relaxed, and nonchalant. Yue Yuan could sense that this time, however, they seemed to take it very seriously, almost as if the idea of an equal dialogue was written in the air.
It was utterly unbelievable that a Level Six Civilization would speak to him on equal terms. Back when he had just escaped the Solar System, Yue Yuan wouldn't have dared to even imagine it.
We absolutely have to win!
In his heart, he cheered for the Awakeners again, and then he saw several scientists float in from the Command Center hatch. Out of the corner of his eye, Yue Yuan also saw the Science Officer get up from his seat and walk towards him.
"Commander Yue, what should we do next?" The female Science Officer was closer and quickly came to Yue Yuan's side.
"There's nothing we can do. We'll continue building the New Particle Collider project. We'll talk to the Industrial Department about it and tell them to speed up the construction. At the same time, we'll notify the Great Commander of the Crimson Flame Civilization and ask him to send some more people," Yue Yuan said casually.
At this moment, a group of scientists arrived at the Command Center, accompanied by high-ranking leaders from various human departments.
The Awakeners appeared suddenly and left just as suddenly. Their conversation with Yue Yuan lasted only a few minutes. Some of them hadn't even recovered from the strange phenomenon of the starry sky disappearing. By the time they arrived at the Lyra Command Center, the Awakener 'Illusion'' was already gone.
Judging from the puzzled expressions on their faces, they are unaware of the conversation between the Awakeners and Yue Yuan.
Seeing this, Yue Yuan didn't say anything more. He simply waved to the dozen or so people, signaling them to listen carefully, and then had the staff play the recording of the conversation.
"Could this fight between the Awakeners and the Harvesters be a conspiracy by that Silver Heart Alliance?" A military officer suddenly asked after listening to the recorded conversation.
"What if it is or it isn't? Let's not discuss those useless things. Even if I know the truth is different, there's nothing I can do. In my opinion, let's focus on the present." A pragmatic astronomer immediately responded.
That's true. Regardless of who the Awakeners is, that's a matter for Level Six Civilization. Humanity can't do anything about it right now, so we should focus on the present and see what we should do.
Yue Yuan nodded at the astronomer's explanation, and then repeated what the steel pipe had said to the female Science Officer.
Unexpectedly, the astronomer shook his head and said, "That's not enough, Chief. Didn't the Awakeners say that the disappearance of the starry sky was because he stripped our star field out of the Great Universe? In other words, we are now in an alternate dimension."
Yue Yuan nodded, indicating that he should continue.
Then, the young astronomer, his eyes shining, looked at the dozen or so people present and said with deep emotion and excitement, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Aren't you all curious about what this so-called 'stripping' is? Aren't you all curious about the boundaries of this space that has been 'stripped' by the Awakeners?"
This is our opportunity to directly engage with the technology of Level Six Civilization. I know some of you will say that doing research in this area will yield the same results as when we used a telescope to observe the Awakeners's Rectangular Warship —completely fruitless.
But I want to tell you all that science is built up from these small, incremental steps. Even if you don't gain anything from them, it still broadens our knowledge, doesn't it?
"Therefore, I propose that, in addition to continuing to advance the New Particle Collider project, we should form a scientific expedition team to go to the edge of this space and explore what this space is all about."
The Awakeners said that once we reach Level 4 Civilization, we will naturally find a way out. Until then, I think we should try to understand this space first."
Upon hearing this, Yue Yuan waved his hand, stopping the astronomer from speaking.
It wasn't that Yue Yuan disagreed with his point of view, but he felt that it was a waste of time for him to repeat the same thing over and over again, so he said directly, "Research is definitely necessary. You can come up with an investigation plan later."
The astronomer, who had expected Yue Yuan to object, was visibly taken aback.
After confirming he hadn't misheard, he shut up and stood to the side, looking eager to try. Several other scientists beside him did the same.
"Commander Yue, compared to this, I think we should analyze more carefully the Awakeners's intention in separating us and the entire space from the Great Universe," a military officer said, stroking his chin.
Judging from the tone of his voice, Yue Yuan knew without even looking that it was the first person to speak, a newly Command Department, whom Yue Yuan remembered had taken up the post more than three hundred years ago.
Just then, the Command Department -chief raised his hand to stop several scientists who wanted to interrupt him, and then continued, "I know you will say that the Awakeners have already said it, but what I want to say is that the Awakeners did say the reason for protecting us, but they did not say what the specific aftermath of the war would be."
Therefore, I ask you all, is it possible for Level 4 Civilization to withstand the so-called aftershocks of war? In what form do you think these aftershocks would reach us, eight thousand light-years away? If we don't understand this, even if we reach Level 4 Civilization, venturing out will already mean facing unknown dangers.
His words immediately received a physicist's reply, which was quite concise. "First, intense spatial oscillations. Second, Supernova Explosion. Third, the outermost battlefields of both sides."
