Endless pure white space, without any reference, only white, white, and white...
In it, I can't distinguish between southeast and northwest, and it can also be said that there is no southeast and northwest.
After staying in such an empty place for a long time, even a mentally normal person will go crazy.
Fortunately, Huo Gu still has company, which makes it not too boring, and there is no one to talk to.
It has become a complete star hub, and no spectrum can be seen. Only through gravitational waves or physical entity reference can we know its existence.
However, this pure white space with nothing and no reference can be observed at all.
Huo Gu is protected in it and will not reveal his body. Therefore, there is nothing in this space, and Huo Gu and the imprisoned are also invisible.
"How long have we been locked up in this place?"
Huo Gu glanced at the pure white scene outside his eyes, and the perception of biological time was completely confused.
In this place where there is no sun, moon, or even a reference, the influence on organisms is very strong, especially the perception of time.
Although such a problem can be solved with a built-in atomic clock, Hogu does not want to do so.
Doing so always gives him a countdown to death, and then he feels like going to the execution ground.
Although it is hard to say who will win or lose, if the spiritual realm allows them to leave this place, it is likely to arrange for the two of them to die.
Therefore, Huo Gu asked me to do the thing of recording time, which is a little pretentious as a human being...
[Not for a long time, just more than 200 years.]
"I thought that we were forced to stay in the spiritual realm. Even if we were not killed, we would inevitably suffer. I didn't expect that we were really just locked up."
"No, it can't be said to be closed. After all, this place is so big that there is no difference between such a 'prison' and no. At most, it can't be said that it can't be returned."
At the beginning, Huo Gu has been psychologically prepared, such as falling into the bottom of the 18-story hell in mythology, going to the oil pan under the mountain countless times and so on.
As a result, it was later found that it was indeed just closed, and even the spiritual creatures and spiritual realm could not be seen.
Now Huo Gu can probably understand why the Lord of Fear Abyss was eager to eat it at the beginning. Contrary to the calm and idle wisdom beads when he first came into contact with it, he knew that if he didn't eat it earlier, there would be no chance in the future.
The lord of the spiritual realm is not allowed to eat. Which spiritual master dares to resist? Which one has the ability to resist? The Lord's words are rules in the spiritual realm.
[According to this logic, Huo Gu, didn't you also 'cover up' from the earth to this side at the beginning?]
"Earth... alas."
When he mentioned the earth, Huo Gu couldn't help but feel lost. The gossip in his heart suddenly emerged with many questions.
How is the earth?
Is it still the blue planet?
What about humans?
Is human civilization still there?
Have you left the earth to colonize the universe?
What level has human civilization reached today?
According to the time I have experienced, human beings should have reached the level of cosmic civilization, right?
If I go back, will they be hostile to me?
Or have all human beings been extinct?
...
After thinking about many unanswered questions, Huo Gu threw these all out of his mind.
The only thing that remains in Huo Gu's thoughts is the short section of 'cosmic civilization'.
During this period of detention, he told the ancient civilizations above the glory in the ancient universe.
The more I understand, the more shocked I am.
"Mang, the last time you told me, the attack and defense principles of cosmic civilization, let's talk to me again."
[Good.]
[Hmm...speak from the beginning?]
"Yes, I felt a little complicated when I heard it last time. I hope it can be simpler this time." Huo Gudao.
[Okay.]
After thinking for a while and thinking about how to explain it briefly, it began to talk about the principles of attack and defense.
[Before understanding the principles of attack and defense, you need to understand a concept, that is, what is the essence of science and technology?]
"It is a method that uses the rules of the universe."
Science is a systematic summary of the rules of the universe, and technology is the use of it on this basis, which is not difficult to understand. For example, we know that the falling object will be accompanied by impact. The greater the mass of the falling object, the greater the impact force. So we use this phenomenon to lift stones and smash walnuts. Cheng is the use of cosmic phenomena and the application of rules.
From the beginning of life, life is born to use the rules of the universe, and all life is like this, which is their inevitable instinct.
[Correct is the method. The essence of science and technology is to use the rules of the universe, even the simplest single-celled organisms, which have been using the rules of the universe since birth.]
[After understanding the basic concepts of science and technology, it can lead to another question - what is the technology of 'attack' and 'defense'?]
This question is very general and thought-provoking.
Attack is very simple. As long as it can hurt the enemy, isn't it an attack?
And isn't there a variety of ways to kill a person? Poisoning, sharp weapon voice, radiation lesions, drowning, hanging, etc. If further extension, it can be said that any technology that can kill can be regarded as a technology in the category of attack.
On the other hand, what about defense?
This is too general. Defense is aimed at attacks. Technology with the opposite purpose of attack technology is regarded as 'defense'. There has never been any perfect defense for all attacks under 100% defense. Therefore, if offensive technology is all technology, defensive technology will also be all technology.
The key is to see how users use technology.
Based on this thinking, Huo Gu answered Ming's question.
"...All technologies can be used to attack and defense. Different situations and different results have no absoluteness."
[Yes, there is no absoluteness, but what about regularity? The law of attack and defense.
"Law..."
After mentioning it like this, Huo Gu fell into deep thought.
[We need to analyze attacks and defense in depth, which can be viewed in a dialectical way.
[First of all, can defense exist independently?]
"No, defense is aimed at attacks. Attacks do not exist. How does defense start?"
Like a wall, it can be used to block the enemy's attack in wartime, that is, to play a defensive role, but in peacetime? It is just a wall blocking people's way. At this time, its 'defense' is meaningless, because no one 'attacks'.
Therefore, when talking about defense, the first thing to talk about is attack. Only with attack can there be defense.
Even if you talk about the defensiveness of the city wall, you must at least figure out the enemy's attack method first, otherwise the enemy will attack vertically from above with missiles. Can it be said that the wall is highly defensive? Obviously not.
[Yes, defense cannot exist independently of the two.]
