Overwatch Invasion of American Comics

Chapter 151 Dark Forest

"Dark forest?" Everyone present was stunned.

William moved a bench and sat down and said, "That's right, before we talk about the Dark Forest, let's talk about cosmic sociology first."

Tony frowned suddenly. He had heard of sociology, but what is this cosmic sociology?
"Our society is composed of all kinds of people, so our universe should also be composed of different races. If the entire universe is compared to a society, then every planet with life is an individual of the society. It's the sociology of the universe."

Everyone looked ignorant. Although William's comparison was a bit strange, it sounded reasonable.

"Do you know the axioms of mathematics?" William continued to ask.

Tony rolled his eyes, "Just you, a scumbag, still want to talk about justice in front of us top students?"

"That's easy." William stretched out two fingers and said, "I'll give you two axioms now."

"First, survival is the first need of civilization."

"Second, civilizations grow and expand, but the total amount of matter in the universe remains constant."

Nick Fury looked puzzled, "What conclusion can be drawn from these two axioms?"

"Tony, do you have a cigar?" William suddenly said, "Give me one."

Tony rummaged through his pocket, and sure enough, he found a box of cigars. He took out one and lit it and handed it to William.

"Seal the lab! Turn off all the lights!"

William has the seventh-level authority, so he can control the system of the sky carrier. Under his command, the light shield instantly fell to cover the window glass, and the lights of the entire laboratory were also turned off.

In the darkness, the ark reactor on Tony's chest glowed with blue light, and his face could be vaguely seen.And Nick Fury is almost completely lost in the dark.

Thor raised the hammer in his hand, and Thor's Hammer suddenly lit up, illuminating him, Natasha, Steve, and Bruce. It turns out that the Meow Hammer can also be used as a light bulb.

"William, what are you doing?" Steve asked curiously.

"Captain, don't worry, listen to me slowly." William took a sip of his cigar and said, "Tony, can you see me?"

"I can't see clearly, it's too dark on your side." Tony replied, "I can only see the sparks of the cigar."

"That's right, the universe is so dark and dead. Suppose we are two planets with different civilizations, and the relative distance is very far away. Tony, now that you know my existence, you can make a choice, whether to communicate with me .”

"Yo, beautiful boy!"

William sighed and said: "You must always remember the two axioms just now. If you choose to communicate with me, you are exposing your own existence."

"No." Tony said in a strange tone: "If you are malicious, I will be considered unlucky. If you are kind, we can form allies and jointly form a more powerful civilization."

"You think too simply." William explained: "Even if the Asgardians are kind, we don't know what kind of attitude they treat us before we don't know Thor. I don't know if they want to Destroy us, or want to ally with us."

In fact, the attitude is already obvious. In the myth of Asgard, the earth as Midgard is one of the nine kingdoms, and Asgard is the head of the nine kingdoms.

To put it bluntly, the earth is a subsidiary country of Asgard.

"Oh, this violates the first axiom." Tony thought for a while and asked, "So what should I do?"

"Even if you are kind, he doesn't know that you are kind. And even if you guess that he is kind, but he doesn't know if you guessed that he is kind."

William's tongue almost tied up after saying this, "What do you think we will do?"

Nick Fury in the dark said aloud: "You will always be suspicious of each other!"

Tony frowned, "Who's talking?"

Nick Fury: "..."

"This is the chain of suspicion." William nodded. "On our planet, this chain of suspicion will end after one or two layers, because we are the same species and we are all human beings. Even if we have different cultures, we can find a way comminicate."

"But the universe won't work." Bruce interjected, "It's hard to imagine what kind of species there will be in the universe, but there are certainly not only humanoid creatures like us. Such a huge difference in biology will make people suspicious The chain is indestructible!"

Of course, for example, Trisolarans, Transformers, and Kryptonians stay together, how do they communicate?
"It's easy to chat with you schoolmasters." William said with a smile: "So the chain of suspicion will bring some fatal consequences, that is, war!"

"I heard from my father that there is a kind of alien called the Cree and the Skrull who have been fighting, and their war has lasted for thousands of years." Thor said.

Tony said with a puzzled expression: "Then if the levels of the two civilizations differ too much, won't war break out?"

"No." William shook his head and said, "This is what we are going to talk about next, the technological explosion."

"The earth has a lifespan of billions of years, and human civilization has a history of thousands of years. But our current science and technology have been developed within hundreds of years. This is not a development at all for the long cosmic time. It's an explosion!"

To be reasonable, before World War II, superheroes in the Marvel world had not yet been born, let alone S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra.

With the appearance of Captain America, the world's technology has developed rapidly, and more and more superheroes have appeared.

Tony created a powerful armor, Bruce mutated into an invincible Hulk, and the black technology of S.H.I.E.L.D. allowed the aircraft carrier to fly into the sky and so on.

Maybe one day, human beings will be able to create interstellar warships, leave the earth, go to the depths of the universe, and conquer the stars and the sea.

"Even a weak civilization will become very powerful once it undergoes a technological explosion. Therefore, even a primitive civilization that is not dangerous, if left alone, may become a new threat in the future!"

Thor felt that what William said made sense. After all, he had heard that Midgard was wild and deserted before, but when he came here, he found that this was not the case. Even if the technology here is not as good as Asgard, it still causes got his attention.

Perhaps one day, the earth's technology can really catch up with Asgard, so can Odin, the father of the gods sitting on the throne, sit idly by?
"In this case, I can't keep silent. I can't communicate with you. Whether you are strong or weak, it is dangerous for me. It violates the first axiom." Tony said with a puzzled expression: "But William, this is not the same as What does the dark forest you mentioned have anything to do with it?"

"The answer is in your heart." William said with a serious expression: "It's not enough to keep silent, and it's not good to communicate, so now you only have one choice left."

Tony was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but said: "Hey, really black, even darker than Director SHIELD!"

Nick Fury: "???"

"The universe is like a dark forest. Every civilization is a hunter with a gun. They sneak in the forest like ghosts, not daring to be discovered by others. Once they find the enemy, all they can do is to destroy or conquer the enemy "William said in a deep voice, "This is the law of the dark forest."

Hearing this, everyone fell into silence. William turned on the lights and sun visors again, and Nick Fury asked: "But I think there is a loophole here. You think that all life in the universe is malicious, don't you think there will be one?" Pacifist?"

William thought to himself that there really were, such as the Nova Corps, but their fate was rather miserable.

"Actually, this question is very simple." William explained: "Our world is the epitome of the law of the dark forest."

"After the birth of human beings, the war has not stopped. From the age of great exploration, after the Europeans discovered the New World, they did not help the local aborigines, but carried out wanton massacres and slavery. For example, the black slave trade, the massacre of Indians, and even The Opium War. World War I and World War II are the best interpretations of the dark forest. Even now, aren’t those regions in the Middle East still not peaceful?”

Everyone was silent. Basically everyone present had fought in war, or knew the cruelty of war. The world is not peaceful, and the war is still going on in many corners of the earth.

Now that the Cosmic Rubik's Cube has attracted the attention of the Chitauri, it is certain that many beings in the universe also know about the earth. Perhaps it is not just them who want to invade the earth in the future, but even more terrifying enemies.

That enemy will show them what real death and despair are!

At this moment, Gamma shot and found the position of the Rubik's Cube. Bruce took a look, looked at Tony with a surprised expression, and said, "My God, we were all deceived!"

Hearing what Bruce said, William quickly got down on the ground and shouted: "Danger! Get down!"
