Frost Wings

confusion

Aug 19, 2024

In the darkness, Baihe stretched out his claws and tried to knock on the culture tank a few times.

The glass was made of materials with a higher technical content than that of the Earth. The main purpose was to prevent Baihe from breaking through the wall and escaping. Baihe tried twice, and a breath of air swelled in his stomach. With a puff, a layer of severe frost covered the surface of the glass.

It was really unscientific.

Baihe muttered that this ability was not only useful, but the temperature of the cold air seemed to have dropped a lot.

He, a semi-magical creature who could survive for a long time in an anaerobic environment and whose stomach could digest inorganic matter, could be alive and well in the technological plane. This cheat must be very big.

Baihe stretched out his claws again, and under the principle of low-temperature brittleness, he poked a hole in the glass.

After trying to achieve such an effect, the Trisolarans did not seem to consider the possibility of Baihe using supernatural power to escape.

Until Baihe tore a hole large enough for him to pass through, the protective net outside did not react at all. Without energy support, it was easily torn apart by Baihe.

Baihe climbed out of the culture tank and took a breath. The air temperature underground in the Trisolaran was not low. If the temperature on the surface was not high, it at least meant that this place was very far from the surface.

He stepped out of the room. The Trisolaran underground city was pitch black, with only sporadic lights flickering irregularly everywhere.

The area nearby should be a relatively confidential part of the underground city. He saw overlapping portals. Without the support of energy, these high-tech portals were useless. Baihe walked out of a portal and doubted his previous idea that the Trisolaran planet suddenly entered the chaotic era.

When entering a courtyard, Baihe suddenly found several corpses on the ground. Seeing these Trisolaran corpses that obviously lost signs of life without dehydration, Baihe was a little shocked.

Is it not the chaotic era but the Trisolarans themselves who are causing trouble?

"Such a highly centralized dictatorship can cause internal strife. The Trisolarans are really weird."

"Well, it's no big deal. This kind of thing happens all the time."

Bai He turned around and saw a Trisolaran walking out of the door behind him with a real-time translator in his hand.

"What are you doing here?"

Bai He recognized this Trisolaran. This was probably the only one he could recognize on this planet. He was also the one who communicated with him the most among the Trisolarans. He was the ecological researcher who discovered him.

The Trisolarian shook his head and stood in front of Baihe with some emotion: "Actually, I wanted to see how you were. After all, the energy supply has been cut off. I thought you might be in trouble, but now it seems that I thought too much."

"Thank you very much for your concern." Baihe thanked him: "But what exactly happened here?"

"As you can see, civil war."

"Does this happen often?" Baihe raised his dragon eyebrows and thought of what the Trisolarian said just now. He heard a violent explosion as if somewhere, and the shock wave came from afar, and his dragon claws were also numb from the shock.

"It happens all the time in history." The Trisolaran sighed, and suddenly stood still, looking at Baihe as if he was looking at something strange: "Do you know? Picking you up for research may be the worst decision I have ever made in my life. You have successfully done what the earthlings in this universe dream of doing."

"You don't mean that this civil war was caused by my words." Baihe looked at the Trisolaran in disbelief: "Excuse me, if the civil war was caused by a technical idea, it would be a miracle that you Trisolarans have not been extinct until now."

"You underestimate the power of your words." The Trisolaran kept sighing while speaking, and the light on his body was very dim. He maintained a posture on the side of Baihe. Baihe knew that this posture was similar to the sitting posture of earthlings, which was a posture that saved energy.

Obviously the Trisolaran wanted to have a good talk with him.

"You haven't really understood how much we Trisolarans crave for survival."

"So have you really considered my suggestion?" Baihe's mouth twitched.

"Do you still remember the man that was hunted by the monitoring team that day?" The Trisolarian did not directly answer Bai He's question.

"I remember, what happened to him?"

"What he did that day, which was to leak secrets, was actually to use the radio to bypass the monitoring and send your speech to all the terminals that can receive it on the Trisolarian star. Because he knew that if the head of state reacted to your speech, the first thing he would do was to keep it absolutely confidential."

"Oh?"

"During the interrogation, he said that this would be a new hope for all Trisolarians, and he did not want this hope to be manipulated and used by the powerful. Further interrogation proved that he was a revolutionary."

"You Trisolarians also have revolutionary fighters?" Bai He was stunned.

"There are losers in every era, and even if there are successful cases, they will eventually become authoritarians." The Trisolaran said: "It's a pity that there is no room for democracy here. I envy the people on Earth a little bit for this."

"So just after you gave this speech, the Trisolaran government held a discussion meeting, and less than ten hours later, the civil war began.

We prepared for dozens of constant eras to conquer the Earth, and it only took you a few minutes to provoke the civil war among the Trisolarans!"

The Trisolaran sighed and said: "Almost 70% of the people in the scientific department think that your theory is completely worth a try. If it is indeed successful, it will undoubtedly be another way for the Trisolaran civilization to continue; but many people strongly oppose it. They believe that since the Earth conquest plan has been launched, it should be carried out to the end. If your plan is implemented, it will undoubtedly consume a lot of Trisolaran resources, which is a betrayal for the expedition team."

"It's impossible to have the best of both worlds?" Baihe asked.

"...Do you know how much resources we have consumed for the Earth conquest plan? I'm afraid you don't know.

It took us 40 Eternal Eras to build the fleet. Don't think this time is long. In fact, it is only 10 years in Earth time. Half of these 10 years are in the Chaotic Era. In these 10 years, we have to study the sophon and build a spacecraft that can accommodate a group of elite colonists. Just physical work has exhausted hundreds of thousands of Trisolarans. Together with the death toll in the Chaotic Era, the population of Trisolarans has decreased by one-fifth in 10 years!"

"It's really sad, but only in this way can a miracle be created." Baihe said in surprise and admiration. If the Earthlings were in this situation, they would have gone on strike and rebelled long ago.

"More importantly, many people believe that once we have a way out, we will no longer care about the life and death of the expedition fleet." The Trisolarans said with some sadness: "Now this point has been perfectly proved by the actions of most Trisolarans."

"Many people have begun to get angry. They think that the scientific department and the government have deceived them! If they had thought of this path earlier, so many compatriots would not have had to die in the factory.

The revolutionaries also began to incite the masses, but this is not a big deal. They also incited in the past, but no one paid attention to them. They never succeeded. If the situation was just like this, the head of state could still control the situation."

"Did an accident happen?"

Baihe asked with great interest.

"Yes, there was an accident, a serious accident. It is because of this accident that the situation has become so out of control now."

"Boss, you said that's a white dragon?" The dwarf looked at the half dragon wing exposed on the glacier with a pale face, and his legs began to tremble. The dragon wing covered the sky, and the sun in the north was dim and the cold breath seemed to freeze half of the sky. "Maybe... Pack up, we should go..." The captain felt an inexplicable chill in his heart, and suddenly realized something in a trembling: "Wait! It's too late! Prepare for battle!" The eternal cold surrounded the glacier. After the gusts of cold wind that tore through the sky, the mercenary, whose body seemed to be torn into pieces, opened his eyes. A pair of strange scarlet pupils looked down at him from above, and the voice was not loud but deafening: "Human? Dwarf? Elf? Oh, welcome, I am Baihe Shuangyi, welcome to my research institute, what research do you want to participate in? Genetic modification or something else?"... Follow the trend, dnd, infinite flow, and All hail Claudius, there is nothing else to say.
