A list of the top ten main characters: Ye Wenjie from the Three-Body Problem at the beginning.

Followed by.

The video has started playing...

To be continued...

I feel like writing it this way makes it easier to read, but it will definitely omit some plot details.

Chapter 111: Only Luo Ji can establish deterrence!!! (Second update)

Chapter 112: Only Luo Ji can establish deterrence!!!

Above the vast heavens and myriad worlds, the story of the Trisolaran world continues.

Combined with the subtitles in the previous video.

The image gradually appeared in the middle.

The first thing that catches everyone's eye is the magnificent and solemn United Nations Hall.

At this moment, through the video footage, all the characters from different dimensions can see inside this hall that can accommodate hundreds of people.

Representatives from various countries, as well as political elites, wore grim expressions and were filled with fear.

To alleviate the panic, some delegates and members of parliament lit cigarettes in the joint hall.

But the hand holding the cigarette suddenly started trembling uncontrollably!

The reason is simple: everyone has learned about the Dark Forest Theory.

Although everyone present was a big shot, they were mostly pampered and spoiled.

They are nowhere near as knowledgeable as Shi Qiang!

At this moment, the newly appointed commander of the International Fleet exclaimed, "This!!! This is terrifying!"

"Black! Absolutely fucking black!!!"

"A chain of suspicion, an endless chain of suspicion."

"Fortunately, Ye Wenjie's voice was picked up by the Trisolarans, rather than by people from other star systems."

"The real universe is a dark forest where not a single ray of light can penetrate."

"In this sense, we are constantly at risk of being attacked by alien civilizations, and we may not even know how we die."

"We should expedite the formulation of relevant laws."

"Yes, we need to formulate relevant laws as soon as possible!"

"The Trisolarans knew about the Dark Forest Theory a long time ago; we're such a bunch of fools."

……

"It's unbelievable that Luo Ji is such a madman!!!"

The state of being in the Dark Forest gave these humans, who were encountering the truth of the universe for the first time, an extremely profound shock.

Although Luo Ji did not want to reveal the Dark Forest Theory to humanity.

But there was nothing they could do; the Trisolarans' temporary retreat would eventually become clear to them.

Soon, humanity adopted extreme emergency policies in response to the Dark Forest Theory.

All electromagnetic emissions and the dispersal of communication devices into space are prohibited.

Those who secretly launch super-powerful devices into space will be sentenced to death for crimes against humanity.

Even mobile communications were banned.

But this was clearly a provocation, and the humans on Earth in the Trisolaran world also knew that this was inappropriate.

……

As time went by, humanity slowly regained its rationality.

The scene in the video is understandable to the viewers from all the worlds, as it's their first time encountering such a situation, and an emergency reaction is to be expected.

It's worth noting that even the ruler of Alpha Planet, a god-level civilization, experienced an emergency response after witnessing the Dark Forest Law for the first time.

However, what Kruger III did was to destroy other star systems ahead of time.

……

Boom~~

……

Above the heavens and the myriad realms, strange phenomena frequently occur.

The video continues playing.

in the picture.

A subtitle flashed.

Five months later

[Luo Ji handed over control of deterrence five hours ago]

The joint congress and the representatives of the international fleet sat down together again for a meeting.

The meeting chairperson spoke first:

"Luo Ji, the only Wallfacer, has relinquished control of the deterrence mechanism."

"It's time to end this naive and absurd Wallfacer Project that has lasted for two hundred years."

"But the war is not over yet, and it could even be said that this war cannot end."

"Ladies and gentlemen, you should study a new subject: deterrence game theory."

The European representative said, "Indeed, the childish and absurd wall-facing plan should be terminated."

"I agree."

"Next, we should consider how to establish a deterrent to stop it."

"I think there have been instances of this in history."

The US representative began to speak.

The history he refers to is the second half of the 20th century.

That far-reaching rivalry between two superpowers.

……

But the people of all the heavens and myriad realms were speechless upon seeing this.

"What's wrong with these high and mighty gentlemen? They're belittling the Wallfacer Project and the Wallfacers to the point of being worthless again. They weren't saying this when they had no other options."

"Can't humanity respect history at all? Even if it's in the past, we still have to respect history."

"Heh, so what! Do you think you can establish a deterrent against the Trisolarans with these cowards?"

……

The video continues playing.

After arguing for three hours in the UN hall, the members of parliament and representatives realized that they couldn't deter the Trisolarans at all!

The key to this deterrence game theory lies in ultimate deterrence.

In other words, it was to convince the Trisolarans that whoever controlled the ability to broadcast cosmic messages would press the button if they were in danger.

Just like the three main elements that constitute deterrence.

First point: The deterrent operator has the capability to launch the coordinates of the Trisolaran world, causing the destruction of both worlds.

Secondly, deterrence and control can be exercised by the Earthlings, specifically by the person or organization that controls the launch switch, thus deterring the Trisolarans from their invasion.

Thirdly, the person or organization that controls the launch button must have the courage to perish together with the Trisolarans when they invade.

……

In the video.

The conference chairman exclaimed, "I need to make the level of deterrence higher than 440 percent for it to have any chance of success."

"However, if control is held by the human population, deterrence may not be successful due to the existence of human morality and value bottom lines."

The US representative cursed, "Damn it, we still have to hand over control to Luo Ji."

"Let him be the swordsman!"

"Currently, he's the only one the Trisolarans fear; he himself is a fearless madman!"

International Fleet Representative: "There's no time to lose, we need to hurry, otherwise the Trisolarans..."

The representative hadn't finished speaking yet.

The meeting chairman then banged on the table to announce the end of the meeting.

The meeting dragged on for ages.

The power of deterrence and control must be returned to Luo Ji.

……

The scene changes.

United Nations representatives, carrying a deterrence and control kit, rushed to Luo Ji's residence by plane.

When Luo Ji took over the launch button, all the political elites breathed a sigh of relief.

They were just puzzled as to why the Trisolarans hadn't taken any action yet. Was it a miscalculation, or what?

But anyway, Earth is safe now!

After taking over control of the deterrence, Luo Ji didn't say anything more.

night.

Zhuang Yan and the child looked at Luo Ji, feeling an indescribable bitterness.

Chapter 113: Humanity Doesn't Thank Luo Ji!

one person!

How much loneliness must an ordinary person endure to shoulder the responsibility of protecting the world?

……

Above the heavens and myriad realms, strange phenomena occurred frequently, and the iconic video continued to play.

In the picture.

Zhuang Yan and the child stood in a beam of light, while Luo Ji's figure was shrouded in darkness, without a trace of light.

Luo Ji did not refuse the responsibilities and missions imposed on him by humanity, nor did he seek personal gain as he had done before.

Once a cynical, selfish, and decadent scholar, he has been transformed by his deep love for his family as he is chosen by fate to shoulder a heavy responsibility.

According to the laws of the Dark Forest, one civilization cannot allow another civilization to exist.

The reason why the Three-Body Problem fears Luo Ji is that he is willing to gamble with his own life.

This is the kind of person the Trisolarans fear most.

Luo Ji doesn't love humanity, nor does he care about humanity.

He understood perfectly well that even though he would dedicate his life to protecting humanity, humanity would not thank him.

But he fell in love with Zhuang Yan.

He fell in love with the angel that humanity had given him.

Perhaps Luo Ji had already fallen in love with humans long ago.

But it was precisely this love, which carried a deterrent effect, that allowed the two civilizations to coexist peacefully for fifty-four years.

However, it is impossible for humans to understand logic.

Just like the clash between two civilizations, ETO (Electronic Totemists) are collaborators from Japan and South Korea.

How could people who are intoxicated by Western materialism and spirituality possibly thank Luo Ji, or thank him for betting their own material lives on this?

They would only think, why didn't we surrender earlier? Why did we have to struggle so hard and make it so difficult for us to negotiate with the Trisolarans?
