Star Empire

Along with the jumping golden light flow, the calculation equipment operating at full power and the frequency contained in the order field will be unified with the frequency of the world barrier itself.

In front of the fleet, the originally blurry but tangible light and shadow instantly spread into a sea of ​​stars that filled the sky. The information pulse waves radiated from the edge of the universe quickly outlined the star map and environmental signs of the entire universe.

Everything shows that this is a nascent new universe where star-making activities are still extremely violent, and even the mass in space has not yet completed steady-state distortion.

…

In the process of thousands of years of exile, the mathematical rate host has developed for several generations and has now reached maturity, such as matching frequencies for order field fusion, or large void information offset calculations that originally required countless calculations across the entire federal network. Years of huge computing tasks have now been completely reduced to an acceptable range.

Fortunately, even during that long period of confused exploration, the empire experienced a lot, and encountered many things that may be seen everywhere in the void, but were unexpected due to its limited knowledge, but no matter However, in the end everything about this fleet is still considered stable.

The "World Soul" in Weisrifan's body seems to have been trying its best to suppress its own existence since the completion of the fusion. Therefore, during this long period of time, as well as in various more critical projects or projects that will be affected by world frequency factors, During the incident, this shadow-like world soul did not bring any influence or trouble.

…

The pale golden fleet order field on the screen and the white order field representing the original universe were integrated very quickly. When the fleet jumped into the order space, the vast blue galaxy that ran through the entire space appeared in every moment. It unfolds in front of a person paying attention, with no optical delay, no distortion and occlusion. In the generated star map of the universe, every light point is the most realistic form of those stars outside the star corona at this moment.

It's not a light and shadow simulation, it's not a star map snapshot. What is displayed in front of everyone's eyes is a truly material form that can light up the night sky and can be recognized as a glorious galaxy that lasts forever.

…

After the fleet preparations were completed, it was January 1st of the first year of the Restoration Era at the edge of the universe.

"This universe is very young." In front of Vidoville, a small and exquisite probe was projecting a large holographic projection into the control room of the bridge. "It seems that the hydrogen element still exists. Many basic information of this universe The model is very similar to our hometown, and many physical structures can be extended...Although changes in the speed of light will affect the manifestation of electromagnetic force on some sensitive nodes, it will not destroy the structure of the most basic elements."

Through mental induction, the probe's onboard computer quickly locked on the brightest galaxy in the currently photographed star map and its image quickly occupied the main body of the picture. Some parameters also emerged. After detailed observation After these scenes, Vidoville discovered that the universe seemed to be in an evolutionary period earlier than he had imagined.

"Basically, the surface temperatures of these huge super stars are around 70,000 degrees. Compare them with the previously collected picture of our home world."

"...The verification is completed. From an optical perspective, the stars in this universe are larger and brighter. Perhaps it is because the speed of light here is slightly higher and the gravitational constant is also larger. During the conversion of mass and energy, In order to resist gravity, the fusion reactions of these stars can output higher energy - which also means that they can have sufficient radiation pressure at a higher mass."

After a little comparison in his mind, Cavinrel immediately came to the conclusion, "This universe is younger than all of us imagined. During the continuous scanning of the probe, it was found that there are almost no planets near the stars, and the surface of the stars is There are also surprisingly few heavy elements. And inside those bright, ultra-highly loose star clusters, there are many large-scale vortices that are constantly spitting out hydrogen jets that are several light-years long. This should be the ongoing large-scale star creation. Movement - I am afraid that even the first generation of stars are still being formed, and heavy elements have not yet begun to be produced, and because the first generation of stars are extremely rich in fuel, they will rapidly decline when they are rapidly squandered. I don’t know if we can We need to directly affect the universe on a macro scale as soon as possible, otherwise we may have to count supernova explosions for a long time."

"...After we calm down, we may have to think about some questions...should the distribution environment of the world in the void be like this?"

"...We don't have much information at the moment. Your Majesty, we can't answer this question." Zhai Cahir shook his head, "But if it is just a conjecture, I personally think it should not be like this. In our universe, we are suffering from During the disaster, it is very likely that the terrifying death wave natural disaster crossed the void in some way and destroyed a large area of ​​the universe. The form of destruction caused by the death wave is the disintegration of matter and the collapse of order. Wait, the damaged world barrier cannot resist the erosion of the void. They will soon be swallowed up and dissipated, or suppressed and enriched by something. The existing weak clues may be able to correspond to such a language expression. Then, that appeared There is a wave of information in the void, and the worlds that appear now are all brand new."

"Do you have any ideas about that wave of information?" Vidoville asked.

"No, when it first broke out, we simply did not have enough power and knowledge to analyze it. After having the new mathematical rate host array, the traces related to it have long been wiped out. At present, we The research related to it still stops at a very high amount of information and a very high intensity, and the "direction determination" of the source results in a rather broad set."

"It seems that there is no point in investing excessive energy here in the short term."

"Vitoville, when it comes to investing energy, I personally think that we should pay more attention to the "void boundary" phenomenon that the Sixteenth Ark once encountered."

Weisrifan suddenly reminded, "When the Sixteenth Ark was lost, no distortion of the navigation trajectory was found, but the communication was almost completely blocked. After encountering that incident, our fleet has moved in the "opposite direction" "After running away for so long, although no similar incident has been found again, there is no guarantee that it is probably some kind of "natural phenomenon" in the void, and Zhai Cahir seems to have given a more precise and serious reminder. If in the future, If the territory of our civilization begins to expand and can exist in multiple universes at the same time, we have to seriously consider the phenomena related to it. In addition, if we need to span multiple universes, the issue of timelines also needs to be seriously resolved. "

"Well...that's true."

"After the probe scans the universe a few more times and confirms that there are no areas of law distortion or any problems that are beyond recognition and cannot be solved by crystal energy in the current universe, the colonization plan should be launched."

Weisruifan crossed his arms and admired the huge cosmic structure displayed in multiple perspectives, which was far more three-dimensional, more detailed, and more majestic and thick than single optical observation. "There are almost no planets in this universe. Considering our The life forms we know, we should be the first intelligence in this universe."

"Then, all you need to do is be a little more patient." Vidoville nodded easily.

…

Since these brand-new probes are based on crystal energy technology, a thin layer of crystal energy shield can make them one level higher than everything in the world and get rid of any physical restrictions and light speed barriers. , so there is no need to rely on any "loophole" means such as high-dimensional space jumps or parallel movement of warped world bubbles. Just conventional driving can achieve the effect of the jump engine, allowing the probe to move in a relatively short time. Fly across the vast galaxy and send the information obtained back to the mothership.

In the criss-crossing interweaving of countless probes, a large golden net gradually swept across the vast space of the universe, and more and more information began to be displayed in the minds of everyone in the flagship control room.

"It has been determined that there are no abnormalities in stars. There is no self-consistent existence inside the star. It can be judged as a soul information group by current understanding. The spatial structure is stable and the basic constants of the universe are uniform." Cavernell concluded.

"Then it can be said that, except for the possible supernova explosions that may continue to occur in the future, this universe can be said to be quite safe." Vidoville pinched his chin and scanned the lengthy reports in his mind because of the annotations, "This one is What's going on? What happened to the cosmic background radiation?"

"The radiation is still in the microwave frequency band, but the frequency is slightly higher. The residual temperature of the universe is -259.5 degrees, which is not a problem. After all, if the universe is judged by the internal space, the inflation period has not completely ended. This is a bit High temperatures are normal. The problematic part is that there is a very, very, very weak radiation permeating the background environment of this universe. It is so weak that it is almost impossible to filter out, but the probe array discovered them. The problem related to it is that it cannot be analyzed. Those radiations seem to be on the same level as crystal energy. If we follow the previously confirmed speculations, we can highly doubt that these radiations are the direct form or decay form of arcana. "

"...Is there a first force that may have appeared but is not yet completely determined?" Although it is still uncertain, if the background radiation of the entire universe is filled with the "first force of the void" that has the ability to destroy life, , then it is likely to be a new challenge for Xingming Civilization. Although crystal energy equipment and the body and soul built on the crystal energy level have greatly enhanced the life strength of Xingming people, if we really want to compete with It may not be enough to confront the arcane environment of the entire universe. After all, no matter what the guess is, when it comes to facing the actual situation, as the ruler of civilization, he will definitely be nervous - but Zhai Cahir's next response, Let him relax about it:

"There are purple stars in the star map. Even if the speed of light is higher, it should not be enough to support stars of this level. However, the structure of the star itself is still stable - the arcane environment may act on the universe itself like a field. , superimposed on the basic laws rather than directly interspersed with each other, then perhaps as long as we find the field source, we can solve enough problems."

"Well... your eye of true seeing and the basic arcane energy structure of your body are different, and you also have very unique research in these aspects. In this aspect, you are currently unique. This part is entirely left to you. Go deal with it, Zhai Cahir."

"If possible, it would be best to find the arcane void decay mapping formula and find out how to use it. If possible, it would be best to start establishing the technology and knowledge system related to it."

"clear."

…

Although it had been anticipated for a long time, during the actual testing, such actual changes were still regarded as an episode.

Therefore, Visrivan ordered to intensify the scanning intensity of the entire universe and add some projects on this basis.

After confirming that everything was safe, the three arks began to accelerate towards the open area in the star cluster, and during the flight, they continuously threw out dozens or hundreds of spindle-shaped missiles, which were no less than one-third of the volume of the spacecraft. How many huge pod-like structures.

These structures quickly stabilized themselves after breaking away from the mothership. Driven by their own crystal energy engines, they began to fly to various parts of the universe according to preset routes and began to establish colonies.

These huge, pod-like flying ships are not external to the spacecraft. Before they are activated, they have been within the body of the spacecraft and exist as the urban structure of the empire.

Although this seems to completely violate the space structure rules of the spacecraft, with the help of space mathematics expansion technology, crystal energy can directly synthesize a quite vast space, and can show different structures internally and externally.

Inside the crystal energy environment, the size of the space is actually more of a conventional parameter, a number that can be set. As the Ark crosses the void, this process is constantly going on inside the ship, and these huge pods, It is stored in the huge gna library inside the main ark that has been expanded by space technology. With the continuous superposition, the space inside the spacecraft is incredibly large. It is no longer explainable by simple geometry and space theory. A more complex mathematical transformation relationship is needed to describe this.

In each pod, this technology also plays a role to a certain extent. The colonial pod itself is still a colonial base modified from the urban structure. It can be anchored and deployed in space, and more complex facilities can also You can build on this as a base, just like the Goddess Bee class. The population carried in each pod is no more and no less than 100 million people.

"If the degree of superimposed space is too large, it may collapse itself... After coordination, a scale of 100 million people may be the most appropriate."

As the spacecraft traveled, hundreds of pods were released, and in each pod, there was a standard population of 100 million, which was divided before the colonial plan. In each pod, each person The final collection formed by the population of different occupations.

"...Compared with before, the number of population occupation "categories" is much smaller, and can even be directly divided into functions."

There are three types: civilization-related, research-related, and military-related. Civilization workers are responsible for sorting out, developing, and maintaining the culture, language, writing, and various arts of the empire, while scientific researchers are responsible for all types of research, at various levels, and in all aspects. And the last one is the soldiers, or in other words - basic citizens.

According to some subsequent demonstrations and basic experiments, the complex political individuals of the old federal era, as well as various various groups and "less useful" professions have been completely eliminated, and the modification of the soul base has determined the basis for All kinds of practices that require turning one's mind on fellow citizens will no longer exist, so the laws and regulations related to them only need to clearly outline some major rights and wrongs.

The endless resources also greatly eliminate the disputes and competitions based on limited materials. An important reason why soldiers completely replaced the original civilian class was the wave of death.

A study of data from two large-scale death waves can roughly lead to a conclusion: when a death wave breaks out, people with a strong will can often persist longer than those who are idle and numb.

The basis for large-scale improvement of high-quality population within thousands of years is a completely new life-making method. The word "manufactured" was one that both Vitouville and Vesrivan had determined to be appropriate during their review.

Due to the continuous progress of civilization and the continuous extension of the lifespan of intelligent beings that make up civilization, at the end of the old federation, the family unit had long existed in name only. Many people would hardly produce offspring through the intercourse of the sexes in their long lives. Over the long years, kinship can also be said to have become extremely alienated. If federal laws were not still restricting the existence of relevant concepts, it is very likely that a completely new social foundation would have replaced this traditional concept 20 billion years ago. The socio-demographic structure is based on marriage.

The brand new method is soul cultivation, just like using culture media to feed microorganisms. Now, the production lines related to it have long been mature. First, build the basic soul template, and introduce into it the underlying protocols and requirements that have been stabilized later. character, and then promote the evolution speed, so that the consciousness of this soul reaches the average level. After these steps are completed, after introducing the basic knowledge revised by two emperors, four chief scientists and a general, you can It encapsulates the crystal energy body and gives birth to a brand new individual.

Although they are mass-produced souls, these souls are imported only with the foundation that everyone has. There is actually a big gap between everyone's situation, their own handling of events, and their thoughts. Weisruifan I was once worried about whether we would create a bunch of lifeless individuals, only uniform, low-intelligent individuals who issued orders and gave responses, but soon, this worry was worthless:

""Your Majesty, the soul here is not directly synthesized, but is directly connected to the culture medium of the "Trial Independent World". In the simulated environment, the initial soul spontaneously forms knowledge and personality and finally matures - the development trajectory of the soul. will not be constant, and even if broad-area conditions are very similar, the final details within these souls will vary widely. "

"In addition, compared with the old individuals that have not completely modified their structure, the biggest change in the empire's life composition is that the new individuals no longer only have conventional reproductive capabilities. Although the body shapes of these new individuals retain certain gender characteristics, But in reality the distinction is made only to distinguish the difference in the souls it carries.”

"Today's population reproduction, more conditions are close to the soul. In other words, if the feelings correspond, or there is a practical need, two people, or even more individuals, can still form a common living environment and use methods such as soul cultivation to create After all, new individuals, after transcending the conventional biological level, have a wider range of choices."

"Recorded and confirmed."

…

"I don't know if these contents are correct. I hope that even if the problem exists, we can find it before it completely breaks out..."

…

In the depths of the blue sea of ​​stars, brilliant and brilliant space facilities began to take shape. The surfaces of these magnificent golden structures were filled with surging energy, demonstrating their own vitality and vitality.

Relative to the entire universe, they are so small that they are almost unworthy of any observation. However, the light of crystal energy contained in them can transcend the limitations of time and space, showing its existence in the universe without delay.

As the golden light continues to light up, more and more huge space buildings are completed almost instantly. Invisible lines intertwine them to form a grand civilization that can encompass the universe. " "Skynet", in the gurgling flow of golden warm currents that can light up the starry sky and warm the universe, large-scale infrastructure clusters are being rolled out at an astonishing speed.

And outside the universe, in the void that cannot be illuminated by the light emitted by the vast endless sea of ​​stars, more networks of detectors and sensors began to be built - some were new, and some were simply the ones in the former ship's body. structure, or part of the hull.

…

"When the alarm sounds here... we may not be able to survive, and even... we may not be able to observe its reaction."

"Hopefully we won't have any use for it."
