Chapter 9: The Redemption of Civilization_3

"Humanity is naturally Evans' enemy, so Evans is a man at war with two civilizations."

"When you put it like that, suddenly I can't help but respect Evans, regardless of his stance." Logic reflected.

"Ye Wenjie must have also known this clue. She should have told you before her arrest, that last sentence of hers 'This is the doomsday of mankind!'

One could say she was pessimistic about human civilization, or one could say it reflected her attachment to human civilization, wishing for humanity to find a path of redemption, which perhaps is also a path of redemption for the Trisolarans. She entrusted everything to a person chosen by fate, and that person is you.

This is also why the Trisolarans wanted to secretly remove you through the remnants of the ETO. As for your survival, I guess the Trisolarans were duped by the ETO, an accidental car crash is a good method, but their communication was too careless—using centralized data emails, which are so easily traceable.

However, fortunately you were lucky enough for humanity to realize your value. Here, we really should thank the ETO. Saying they are humanity's greatest hero wouldn't be an exaggeration."

It's lucky this conversation wasn't broadcasted to the ETO, otherwise, they'd probably curse us, complaining about being slandered again.

Logic sheepishly replied, "I was always clueless back then; it was only later that I understood all of this. Now my protection is so tight, the ETO shouldn't have any chance, right?"

Lin Sen said with amusement, "I think you should start learning physics. If the ETO can't kill you, Sophons still can kill you.

The essence of a Sophon is a proton, it moves at near-light speed. If it continuously strikes the genetic and protein chains in every nucleus of your cells, penetrating your body nearly a hundred million times per second, that would be stronger than neutron radiation, right?

Even though human cells have certain repair capabilities, if a few more protons were to keep hitting for a few years, your body would definitely develop diseases or even lead to death.

Don't forget, it can display text on your retina by striking it—if given enough time, what's to say it couldn't assassinate you?

It's just that there are too few Sophons in the Solar System now; they also have to monitor the globe and interfere with particle collider experiments, so they don't have the chance to do so.

But with this safe, I guess they won't do that anymore."

Logic felt he had luckily survived once again. Without this safe, he could have been eliminated by the Trisolarans at any moment.

...

In the distant Trisolaran world, the Trisolarans sweat poured down like rain as they watched this conversation, as tense as if they were about to shake apart. If the concept of the Dark Forest was comprehended by Lin Sen, it would be a disaster for Trisolaris—they had never seen such a troublesome individual.

The Trisolarans also felt some relief that they had decisively abandoned Evans.

The Trisolarans relinquished Evans because they believed he knew things he shouldn't have known, never having considered that he might be declaring war on both civilizations!

Humans are too dangerous, the ETO is too dangerous, and that Mozi—it's a trap!

Trisolaran Leader: "Strategy Governor, what is your plan in response to such a contingency?"

Strategy Governor: "Our research on human behavior did not predict anything that happened today. We also know that Lin Sen had a safe custom-built.

We just thought it might protect something important, but we never imagined it would contain such critical information.

Proof that our stratagems are insignificant before humanity."

Military Governor: "No matter what schemes and plans, they are all useless before absolute power. Science Governor, do we have an overwhelming suppressive measure, a way to seal off humans from transmitting information into the universe?"

Science Governor: "Using an ultra-strong electromagnetic field, we can block the reflective amplification of signals by the solar mirror. I've been researching this, and 'The Waterdrop' project is also in its final stage."

Trisolaran Leader: "Can 'The Waterdrop' be launched now?"

Science Governor: "Originally, the plan was to manufacture and launch ten Waterdrops together. If we initiate a launch now, we can only launch two, the remaining eight will have to be launched 6,000 Trisolaran hours later."

Trisolaran Leader: "Launch it now! Giving humans even one more second is a threat to us."

At the same time, two Waterdrops from the Trisolaran world were launched, racing towards Earth at high speed.

And all the high-ranking ETO members on Earth received a directive, forbidding any assassination attempt on Logic.
