Leaving the Galaxy

  There are many basic projects for level five civilization. For the current human beings, the first big project is population conversion. The production capacity of the Unreal Laboratory is seriously insufficient and has become a shortcoming.

  The new human civilization now has a population of 1 billion. It is still too slow to convert tens of thousands of people every year. It will take tens of thousands of years to complete this project.

  For the entire universe, tens of thousands of years is not too long, but for the young new human civilization, it is still too long.

  We must find a way to increase the speed by two orders of magnitude.

  Zhang Yuan thought in his heart: "Even if it improves by two orders of magnitude, it will still take hundreds of years."

  The second is to improve the basic equipment of the battle star to adapt to the new information age after abandoning the body, including The construction of brainwave Internet, big data storage systems, shared computing pools, more advanced robot operating systems, etc. is still in its infancy. Whether it is a software system or a hardware system, it will be difficult to completely perfect it in less than a few hundred years.

  The third is naturally the development of all-round comprehensive technology, such as hyperspace engines, increased thinking speed, nanorobots, digital virus research, and various more advanced space technologies. These are the basic technologies of the fifth-level civilization. Even the transformed superhumans will have to spend a lot of time on research, and they cannot be achieved overnight...

  "Dear new human civilization, I have a small suggestion here. You can listen to it."

  At this time, the leader of the hemispheric civilization put forward his own opinion.

  "...Perhaps we can join the Amoeba faction and become an interstellar agent."

  "Oh... What do you say? Are you interested in being an interstellar merchant?" The captain asked: "Traveling in the interstellar market Those who trade are generally Level 4 civilizations or Level 3 civilizations. Communication between Level 5 civilizations can be done through the super-light speed communication system. There is no need to run around in person." "

  In this way, from a technological perspective, when It is difficult for an interstellar merchant to gain anything from these low-level civilizations."

  The leader of the hemispheric civilization said: "The Amoeba faction is a neutral merchant faction. Its main purpose is to promote the development of civilization through communication. The degree of freedom It is also relatively high. After joining the Amoeba faction, it will not interfere too much, but can accelerate our development. At least some knowledge among the Amoeba faction can be shared." "

  As for contact with low-level civilizations, It is indeed impossible to directly obtain more advanced technology, but there are other subjects, including cosmic sociology, biology, etc., which can still be developed." "

  I think joining this faction first is a better choice, especially We were relatively weak at the beginning."

  Everyone thought about it carefully, and suddenly found that this idea was actually quite good. Joining the Amoeba faction would not violate the original core goal of "finding novelties", and it would also allow them to gain certain benefits. The benefits can be regarded as a win-win choice.

  The goal set by the new human civilization is to find novel things in the universe. The so-called novelty includes not only unknown technologies, but also unknown civilizations and other small probabilities. If you can really set up a trading market by yourself, there is no doubt that it will attract a large number of civilizations of all kinds to take the initiative to come here.

  "It is indeed a very interesting suggestion."

  Zhang Yuan nodded and said: "Even if we become a level five civilization, we still cannot work behind closed doors and blindly immerse ourselves in development. External exchanges are still necessary..." "

  I think now In fact, there are still some improvements in the thinking mode. Even low-level civilizations can still learn from it." "

  If we think that after a certain self-improvement, the current state is flawless, there will be no improvement. It means that our self-perception process has gone awry and we have entered a dead end from which we can never get out." "

  This is something that must be avoided." "

  If we can meet all kinds of civilizations, Referring to their ideology may have a certain heuristic effect."

  Level five civilization means being positive and never regressing, but sometimes it can go astray.

  In particular, the process of constant self-transformation and modification of thinking may lead to a misunderstanding from a logical level. In academic language, this phenomenon is called a "thinking black hole."

  Civilizations that fall into the black hole of thinking often suffer from negative situations such as extreme arrogance and narcissism. In particular, without the help of other civilized reminders, it is difficult to discover the shortcomings by yourself.

  To give a simple example, a person wants to become more beautiful through continuous plastic surgery. Every time he undergoes plastic surgery, he will have other people's aesthetics as a reference.

  Some people think it is ugly, and some people think it is beautiful. Only with differences can there be room for improvement.

  But if he is the only one in the world and there is no reference, the so-called "aesthetic" will become single. This kind of constant plastic surgery will either make you satisfied quickly, or you will never be satisfied and fall into a cycle of repeated back and forth.

  The same is true for self-transformation. It is a long and difficult process that requires not only sufficient wisdom, but also a large number of references.

  The original genetic philosophy was a nearly perfect theory. Most species in nature have relied on this system to survive and reproduce for billions of years. But now, people have abandoned this system and must make up a more perfect system. Once there are major loopholes in it, the consequences will be catastrophic.

  A deputy captain also agreed: "This plan is very good. If we can find some civilizations, even the civilization of the fallen, even if we cannot learn good qualities from these civilizations, it will still be a good idea after constant comparison." A good reference."

  This is also the main reason why the new human civilization and the hemispheric civilization are still united so far, and they develop independently of each other without interfering with each other. Both sides believe that each other is a just civilization, and they can criticize and accuse each other during communication, which reduces the possibility of going astray.

  Lao Yang said: "I also agree to join the Amoeba faction. We know this faction relatively well and have a lot of contacts, so the risk is low. Moreover, we cannot join the core of the Amoeba faction and can only be an agent. Business, in fact, you won't lose much freedom."

  He is a traditional human being and has such thoughts.

  The core branches of the Amoeba faction are all hive mind civilizations with the same ideology. Human civilization is not a hive mind, so it is not possible to fully join.

  The authority of an agent is relatively marginal, but it also means more freedom.

  "The only trouble is that the Amoeba civilization seems to have given up on the Milky Way. If we insist on opening a trading market in the Milky Way, it will cause huge conflicts with the Aleph civilization." "

  This problem should worry the Amoeba civilization..."

  The leader of the Hemispheres said: "Our core goal is not to open up a trading market, but to explore the miracles in the universe through this process. It is impossible to go to war with other civilizations because of the trading market. Isn't the Amoeba faction going to leave the galaxy? ? Maybe, we can also leave the Milky Way together."

  "Leave the Milky Way?"

  "According to the information revealed by the plants in the Green Leaf Alliance, their next key targets are the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Small Magellanic Cloud." "

  Maybe... it's feasible. ?"

  Regarding this question, Zhang Yuan thought about it for a while and suddenly felt that this choice was quite good.

  Although the Milky Way is the home galaxy of mankind, this geographical concept is so big that it is just a small symbol. It is inferior to relatively small geographical concepts such as the solar system and the earth. People do not seem to have much attachment to the Milky Way.

  Leaving the galaxy may be a new beginning.
