Chapter 293 - 292: Quantum Bomb
Wandering Star System, drifting through the vast Universe, resembled a star disk against the backdrop of a broad and dim expanse.
When Constant Star Lu Chen learned of a war that had erupted twenty light-years ahead, he immediately convened an internal meeting.
The meeting principally discussed how to deal with the war ahead. There were two main opinions: one was to ignore it, wait until their Wandering Alliance arrived, and if the war was still ongoing, they could simply annihilate both sides;
The second opinion was for the Wandering Star System to use Space Wormholes to traverse twenty light-years and forcefully halt the war, seizing the Constant Stars within that star system. Additionally, they could assess if the two civilizations currently at war were eligible to join their Wandering Alliance.
The debate over these two opinions centered on the fact that some people felt the first plan was too laissez-faire and didn’t adhere to the survival laws of the Universe. They should plunder resources as much as possible to grow, because each step closer to the Cosmic Center increased their danger. If they didn’t seize every opportunity to grow, they might fall behind certain competitors in the Universe, thereby endangering the Wandering Alliance. While some believed the second plan violated the Entropy Reduction Law of civilization; they weren’t against growth, but shouldn’t hastily intervene in a foreign war, which would only waste their own resources, leading to an accelerated entropy increase. They should deal with other civilizations in the Universe more rationally and scientifically, and not cloak their robber-barony in different ideologies and promote it, lest the Wandering Alliance fall into the pitfall of pursuing growth excessively.
Honestly, Constant Star Lu Chen, as the leader, was quite gratified to hear these differing opinions.
He thought that both opinions or plans had their own rationale and were in the best interest of the Wandering Alliance. The reason they differed was simply because everyone’s basis for considering issues was different, like constructing high-rises on different foundations. As the buildings rose higher, the structures on two different foundations would also become increasingly distinct. This demonstrated diversity of thought under the principle of Great Unity.
As the leader, what Constant Star Lu Chen needed to do was find a more appropriate and scientific response plan.
