Extraterrestrial Intelligence Bureau.

As the only foreign intelligence agency for mankind.

Since the four years ago, when humans detected the expeditionary fleet of the Bolivian people, the preparation of this department has been rapidly expanding like a balloon. From the small department of 100 people who had almost no one to care about, it has now expanded into a large department of thousands. .

Even after the war, this department did not have the slightest cut, but it continued to expand steadily.

The entire Intelligence Bureau is divided into eight sub-sectors, including star map calculations, astronomical investigations, monitoring of cosmic signals, exploration of extraterrestrial civilization, assessment of science and technology, and diplomatic negotiations with extraterrestrial civilizations.

Of course, the extraterrestrial civilization discovered by mankind today is only such a civilization as Bolivia.

......

At this time, in a conference room of the Foreign Intelligence Bureau, there was no room for it, and it was silent.

A remote quantum communication device disassembled from the starship and repaired by humans was placed on the stage.

Of course, only large-scale spacecraft equipped with ultra-high-power remote quantum communication equipment for interstellar communication, its body shape can not be so small, but this giant equipment up to nearly 30 meters is obviously impossible to put in the conference room. Now on the stage is just its pickup (a device that collects live sound and then feeds it to the back end of the device)

A negotiating expert and assistant whispered to each other for a while, then took a deep breath and made a ready gesture. The current quickly passed into the communication device, which represented the normal small lamp. One by one lit up.

The signal path is quickly turned on.

"This is a call from human beings. Now it represents human civilization. It is officially required to negotiate with you. If you receive a signal, please answer immediately. Please answer immediately!"

The negotiating expert spoke carefully and fluently about a series of Bolivia, and then repeated it three times.

For many older generations, Bose is no stranger. In a certain era, in order to better absorb Bolivian technology, many people have tried hard to learn the language of this civilization. For the Foreign Affairs Office of the Foreign Intelligence Agency, this language must be proficient.

Today, a lot of high-level executives have come to the conference room in addition to what they really can't do. They pay attention to this historic call, and let go of the star of the human blood. This is undoubtedly the first time human beings have officially Another civilized dialogue.

However, in the past ten minutes and a second, the communication equipment was quiet for a long time, and no noise came from the loud noise.

However, this is expected. After all, even quantum communication will have a certain delay in the distant distance of tens of light years, but I did not expect it to be delayed for so long.

A group of people waited until noon from morning, and waited until noon from noon.

From the original silence, to the later whispers, to the last noisy discussion.

When the hungry people thought that the communication failed, a string of rushing Bolivian language came from the loudspeakers, and the whole conference room was quiet.

"Human? Are you human?" This sound from nearly thirty light years, under the interference of the heavy universe, seems to be somewhat erratic, light and heavy, occasionally with a hint of sharpness.

But even those who don't understand the Bronze language can hear the incredible shock and panic in this voice.

This is a subtle mentality. As the failure of this war, they hope that this defeat is just another accident. It is an off-site factor that affects the expedition fleet (as it is), even if the probability is almost impossible, Feeling panic about the speed of human development.

"I repeat it again. Here is a call from human beings. Now it represents human civilization. It officially asks to negotiate with you. No matter who you are, contact me immediately to contact you. We are coming with peace."

It is a long wait, which is destined to be the longest and longest negotiation ever.

......

Strategic deception in the extraterrestrial intelligence bureau to reduce the vigilance of the Bolivians.

Human beings have also begun a major outbreak of productivity. When science and technology develop into a mature era of intelligence, the size of total productivity has already deviated from the shackles of the population. The size of productivity depends only on the upper will and the limits of resources and environmental damage.

Although the Barnard galaxies are only a star system, the resources for human development are abundant.

The total mass of a No. 4 planet in light and light is equivalent to the sum of all the rockies in the entire solar system.

The surface of the 4th planet represents a huge engineering machine for traces of human activity. Just as the virus spreads rapidly around it, whether the surface atmosphere is frozen or solidified, the "ice layer" or the underground rock is destructively mined. Separated into various elements, it becomes a factory of a seat, a machine of a platform, and a fuel of a nuclear fusion furnace with a million calculations.

This vast human activity has even affected the temperature of the planet. The frozen No. 4 planet is rising at a temperature of three degrees Celsius per year. In the third year after the war, the planet has already been thin. The atmosphere and certain climate change.

Also in this year, the first human curvature ship began to test.

However, the construction of this type of flying vessel has vetoed the original shipbuilding plan of nearly 30 ships.

It is not that this spacecraft has obvious defects. It is designed to be quite perfect. It absorbs the technology of Bolistar and makes the human science and technology strength a big leap.

The surface of the entire spacecraft has an absolutely smooth mirror surface. The reflectivity of the light (the reflectivity of the light facing the normal incident light) is close to 100%. Even the photon of super-light speed can effectively resist.

Its maximum curvature can reach 4.6 times the speed of light, far exceeding the speed of light of the Bronx spacecraft.

The reason why the subsequent shipbuilding plan was otherwise was that the antimatter power furnace that had been in the experimental state was also matured this year. This special power furnace was born with a crushing advantage.

Even if it is only the first prototype, its energy output is up to 300 times that of all the largest fusion furnaces built by humans. As long as ten sets are enough to supply the energy requirements of the original designed spacecraft.

Coupled with the savings in fuel, even a simple replacement can free up 15% of the space.

This first-generation curvature spacecraft is simply a flood-discharging dam for energy consumption. A considerable portion of the space is used to store pure water (nuclear fusion fuel) and to increase the array of fusion furnaces.

Don't underestimate this 15% of the space.

Human beings are not long-lasting peacemen who have never had foreign enemies. The war is almost throughout the history of mankind. Compared with the star-like attitude of the Bolivians to the military, human beings’ thinking about military weapons is completely nitpicking, and the pursuit of weapon performance reaches its limits. On the human military spaceship, you will not see the slightest space to idle.

Don't say that 15% of the space, even one percent, is a huge waste.

It not only makes the design of the spacecraft more comfortable, but also the extra space, without simply expanding the shape of the spacecraft, simply adding the anti-matter power furnace, you can have more powerful kinetic energy.

In addition to the only defect, anti-substance reserves are limited.

The anti-matter preparation technology has made remarkable progress in these years. Now the energy/anti-matter conversion rate is one ten-thousandth, that is, 10,000 parts of energy can be converted into one anti-matter energy. However, since the temporary residence of the Badna galaxies, human production of antimatter has been in a state of small-scale production, even in wartime conditions, the scale of production has not expanded.

First, the energy waste is serious. Secondly, the anti-material demand is not big. For the interstellar war effect, the speed of light weapon is the most mainstream weapon in the interstellar war and the most effective weapon.

Therefore, human beings have been in this galaxy for more than a decade, and anti-matter reserves have been thousands of tons in total, and a considerable part of them have been harvested from the Bolivia spacecraft, but this number is not even enough. A curvature spacecraft spans nearly 30 light years. Energy demand.

Fortunately, this defect is easy to make up. It is easy to simply expand the scale of production with the current technological level of mankind.

In the fourth year, in just one year, the scale of antimatter production expanded tenfold to 5,000 tons.

In the fifth year, the anti-matter production reached 80,000 tons, and the price paid was that the temperature of the fourth planet increased by ten degrees in the past two years.
