Star Empire

No matter how far the distance is, it can't stop Void's will and determination.

The two major gods and the two Void Wills have spent more than ten trillion years in the Void Era before they really met for the first time. The lively scene caused by the real confirmation of each other's existence will last for a long time and leave behind It contains countless stories that seem to outsiders to be children's fights and lovers' flirting, as well as many deep thoughts, summaries and plans for the future that only exist deep in the hearts of gods.

Trillions of years had passed by the time the Empire learned of these circumstances, which had become secrets of history, and the stories behind them.

At that time, the empire had already experienced a great degree of development, and to a certain extent, it could be regarded as truly practicing its eternal will and belief, bathing in the star-like radiance of order of the powerful United God Realm. In the light of the light, under the Supreme Council of the Star Ring Federation, which really embraces the infinite order like a brilliant star ring, together with many federal civilizations, it provides its own role and strength for the development and stability of the void order.

Of course, that's trillions of years in the future.

…

For now, the Star Empire, which spans several void quadrants and is extremely far away, has no specific perception of this war at all.

However, although the explosion caused by the last glorious moment of divine power finally exhausted the possible invisible blessings here, it brought huge benefits to the empire on the surface: there was more than one new world of order.

From the time of the Origin Era when the death wave erupted until now, as long as civilization is not on the verge of life and death and resources are so scarce that the lights cannot be lit, the Star Empire's void information scanning arrays at different levels and levels have been continuously He was working continuously, but for a long time, the only response he received was an almost eternal silence - even the background noise seemed to have submerged.

In the past, until the Ark fleet was updated, the empire's senior officials had been explaining the situation by saying that "the area that the void information scanning array could clearly scan was too small."

However, certain artifacts found in the fragments of the Order world greatly inspired the designers of the Empire. After successfully making major technological breakthroughs in the direction of mathematical models, the powerful void scanning radar possessed by the newly born Ark fleet, as well as the ones deployed near the world barrier after entering the world of order, are more powerful and efficient than the first-generation products. Among the detection results obtained by countless times of powerful information detection arrays, the void within the reach of these most powerful devices is still desolate.

Perhaps, the devices are still too underpowered, or the wrong way around, but regardless, these results - it doesn't seem normal.

During the more than 10,000 years of exile, someone has carefully analyzed the void environment that civilization can detect and understand - this infinite sea of ​​probability does not show any obvious tendency that can be directly detected, at least based on the highest level at the time of research. From the perspective of detection technology, there is no such thing at all. The void can be regarded as "uniform", but this immediately reflects a problem:

In the vast sea of ​​probability, the frequencies produced by the two universes when they were born are so similar, or the "distance" between the two universes is so close, they are almost like twins.

However, after leaving this group of "twins", there seemed to be no more orderly world in the vast void. Although Zhai Cahir was the first to discover the unexplained super-large-scale information wave erupting from the depths of the void to a certain extent, it may reveal the whereabouts of the universe around the star civilization, but in the 10,000-year exile period, it can be said that The detected events of Genesis apparently did not occur again.

Although the previous Origin Chronology Star Federation did not have the ability to observe the void and the creation process, the current group of empire builders began their activities tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of years earlier than the explosion of the crystal energy vortex. Individuals themselves are living histories one after another, and they can clearly remember all the historical phenomena they have experienced——

After the Star Federation took control of the entire universe, it once recorded abnormal phenomena that occurred with high frequency, such as small-scale changes in the cosmic background radiation, slight distortion of regional constants, and inexplicable distortion of starlight without gravity - in the "target" The reality impact caused when the fragments of the "universe" slammed into the world barrier of the home universe is remembered by everyone, and later comparisons also showed that the cause of those former "abnormal phenomena" was basically the fragments of the world. collisions or disturbances caused by the birth and death of other worlds.

The influence produced by the large-scale information bodies that exist equally is transmitted to the universe in various ways, and there are varying degrees of interactive influence. Considering the strength of the source of information fluctuations, it is obvious that when the information of a universe is powerful enough to interfere with other worlds separated by the void, there are probably only two time points when it can have such power: Genesis, or Doomsday.

The large number of records from the Federation period that remain in the emperor's memory prove that such activities were once very frequent outside the Star Universe.

After leaving a world of order, the timeline has no meaning in the void, but it is meaningful in the real world:

As long as the two order frequencies have fluctuated in the void together, then meaningful time conversion can be performed when the two order worlds communicate with each other. The internal environment of the order field of the exile fleet simulates the former home universe, and the timeline calibration relies on the eternal The clock moves, so even if the fleet leaves its homeland, it can still be seen as a continuation of time in its original homeland.

But since the exile fleet staggered into the void, all Genesis activities have stopped. Even if the eyes of the star civilization were not bright enough at the time to see very far, the edge strength of the fragile order field is far lower than the world barrier. If there are external fluctuations that generate information The members of the fleet could definitely know the impact, but everything was silent.

It is as if the creation process on a large scale has been completely suppressed.

The world of order is important to the Star Empire, but it cannot be said to be an absolute necessity. With replicable space channel crystal energy reactors and information-matter conversion technology, the fleet can create sustainable products in the void. The order field is enough to keep the people on the spacecraft alive until the day they no longer want to live.

However, this also means that the fleet is in a fragile situation and there is stagnation in development. Although the world of order is inferior to the crystal energy system in terms of level, in the infinite variety of initial forms and the long evolution of time, information is constantly decomposed and reorganized. The phenomenon of birth, as well as the inspiration and final creation that can be obtained from it, are beyond the imagination of the narrow cognitive scope of the wisdom that dwells in a corner.

In terms of research related to the heart of the world, a considerable number of key phenomena have also come to a standstill due to the cessation of creation activities. Therefore, this time there is a large-scale Genesis activity "near" the empire's new colonial universe. Let's not talk about the specific reasons. Just the "large-scale Genesis activity" is valuable to the entire empire. .

…

At the beginning of the incident, Vidoville and Weisrifan were still excited, but as the terminal towers at the North and South Celestial Pole continued to report day after day, they quickly classified these phenomena into "Familiar" category.

At the moment, Ikarim is driving the Immortal-class A1-type dreadnought with the most powerful defense in the empire, trying his best to capture all possible explosive events in the surrounding void. It is estimated that he will not be back for a while, and looking at As life continues to stabilize and the empire and its citizens are getting on the right track, Vidoville begins to consider some things: the law, the current basic environmental model of the empire, and - some of the symbolic meanings that need to be updated.

In terms of law, due to large-scale soul surgery, all the characters that were originally considered to be completely unconducive to maintaining stability and environmental justice, or simply the "least good" have been almost completely removed from everyone's personality. Removed, coupled with the revised powerful underlying protocol that has been in effect, the original routine and trivial legal provisions have lost the need to exist.

The starting point of the new legal system itself is much higher than that of the old era, but no matter how high the so-called "self-discipline" is, the world is always inevitable with contradictions and unwilling choices, and emotional judgment will always be affected by the real environment. Sex, only with a clear enough criterion, can it truly play a corrective role - and this must exist, even if it is usually left in the deepest place to gather ashes.

"The legal system... Your Majesty, to be honest, including me, we currently believe that the part of the restraint system based on the soul of citizens is enough, and the rest should be left to experience. If you really To completely establish such a complete system... I'm afraid you need to constantly revise it, and it is very likely that the frequency of revision will be very high... In the void, there are infinite types of possible events, and the current written entries... In fact It’s still too single-minded…and this is still a “new” establishment—I’m afraid it will be imperfect for a long, long time to come.”

"But now, we don't have a better way or a better means - who can guarantee that we can do whatever we want and not go beyond the rules for the empire? Even... where are the rules of the empire? Our various codes of conduct Where is it again? Yes, during the Ark Fleet period, our citizens had already engraved the principles of efficiency and conscientiousness into their souls, but that only inherited the unwritten foundation of the Federation. At least now, although in various fields A positive atmosphere that can make rapid progress can suppress many problems, but there may still be a lot of chaos within our civilization... We need it, we need this kind of constraint principles piled up using old ideas, and we need a benchmark that can be referenced To serve as a foundation to rely on... even for a while."

…

As for the place to live... After thinking about this, both Victorville and Vesrifan were surprised - star civilization has not had to rely on the existence of natural celestial bodies for a long time to survive, but if you want to follow your inner desires, In terms of feelings, it seems that they still prefer to live on the planet, and no matter how large and advanced the spaceship or space city is, as long as it is not a ball that can be compared with the celestial body, it will always feel like something is missing——

However, these mindsets are completely controllable and can be completely deleted at any time. With the existing resources, it is not difficult to create a planet. In other words, it is not difficult to create a spaceship as big and round as a planet.

…

The national emblem is the one whose symbolic meaning needs to change the most at present.

The federal era has passed, the "Council of the Three Sages" no longer exists, and the office of the consul no longer exists. Therefore, the ancient federal emblem and the golden double sword emblem are no longer applicable. The emblem has always been regarded as a symbol of civilization. , it can represent civilization to a certain extent.

…

At present, Ikarim's ship is still visiting every information stimulation point in the void, and the void information scanning array in the North Pole is following his progress in real time. Vidoville will also monitor this for a long time from the beginning. And constantly remind Ikarim to pay attention to safety. However, over time, as the observation records became extremely rich and the navigation experience became more and more perfect, these reminders gradually became unnecessary——

The crystal energy shield may not be able to withstand the Genesis Flash, but it can easily resist the small-scale impact caused by the high-level order cooling. Several times, Ikarim experienced brief communication interruptions when he entered the world where Frequency was just born too early, but even so, his timeline did not deviate greatly from the main empire universe, which also made a Issues that originally required special careful consideration may not be as important as imagined——

High-frequency crystal energy may not have a timeline in the conventional sense. Its "time measurement method" is the trend of information evolution, which is independent of the world. After it has been given almost all the information that can be evolved, the "timeline" of it and the entire star civilization behind it can be said to be quite stable. Even if there are fragments, they will not appear because of "the level is too low." "The timelines are closed and independent of each other in the void, and then appear in the terrible situation that only one second has passed in the timeline of one order world, while trillions of years have passed in the other timeline.

After all, when the disturbance from order is strong enough, even the chaos of the void will be able to overcome it.

…

Restoration year 117.

"Ikarim...has he really forgotten all the time?" Looking at the crystal energy tube network with golden light flowing in front of him like blood, as well as the vast and smooth silver-white metal land, Wei Wei Dowell couldn't help but feel a little strange, "He can't even communicate now..."

"Didn't he say that the key points were reached last time? All cutting-edge scholars are like this, especially after the collapse of the original big think tanks and shared teams. Besides, it is now, after all, a lot of content has not actually been determined, what is operable and tolerable There is a lot of space. Don’t forget, your chief Cavin Riel’s behavior that exceeded the experimental safety regulations in the crystal energy vortex blockade...at that time was enough for him to be shot and resurrected several times."

Several beams of lavender arcane light emerged from the void around Vidoville, and Vesrifan appeared next to him. At her feet, a door opened by the arcane teleportation circle was dimming.

"It seems that you have mastered this new system quite well." Vidoville nodded, "Right now, a new group of high-level information carriers based on arcane energy is growing and growing. In terms of branch development..."

"Of course there are considerations. Unlike the relatively "accurate" nature of crystal energy, the arcane carrier itself is much more uncertain than the crystal energy carrier. Therefore, everything related to it requires the arrangement of a completely new technology tree. However, You can also believe that two completely different technical lines require completely different ideas to drive - when the two technical lines finally develop to the extreme one day, even if they reach the same goal by different paths, the branches and leaves spread out on their paths will also fully grow. It becomes a tree that is fuller and more comprehensive than a single technical line.”

"I don't doubt this at all, but compared to literary works, the actual application situation may be very different. You..." Before Vidoville could finish speaking, an unprecedentedly large space door opened in an instant. In the space tens of thousands of kilometers away in front of him, Victorville noticed a crystal energy vibration immediately - it was a kind of energy that seemed to be brought out when a super-high-speed object broke through the atmosphere, penetrating the air. A piercing scream.

"Wait...what is that?!"

The object that fell out of the space gate was at least two hundred kilometers long, and it quickly fell to the earth like an entire mountain range.

Under its violent impact, airflow shock waves broke out instantly, and the atmospheric stabilization system responded immediately to calm these abnormally violent airflows. These airflows did not harm the onlookers at all, but then Vidoville quickly noticed the more serious part——

Obviously, the objects falling out of that huge space door contain crystal energy. In this case, the underlying armor plate also loses immunity from impact.

After this huge creation hit the surface of the planet, the large-scale crust shook violently like a chocolate ball dropped into melted butter, as if the surface of the planet was not made of metal, but was covered with a liquid ocean.

Fortunately, the underground pipe network layer is strong enough. In fact, this part is the strongest structure on the entire planet.

"...??!" When the belated Vidoville finally saw the true form of the unidentified falling object that fell to the ground and ignited a "raging fire", he couldn't help but instantly fell into madness. Condition - It was once one of the most powerful dreadnoughts in the Empire, but now, it seems more like... ruins.

…

"The content must be improved quickly... This kind of situation with no bottom line and no restrictions can't happen again..." With a burst of muttering, Ikarim was almost "lifted" out by Vidoville. At the same time, the rapid reaction force stationed here immediately rushed into the wreckage of the ship to prepare to rescue people - according to the current search, this accident does not seem to have caused any casualties.

"The soul is precious, the soul is precious, forget it this time..." Victorville said while throwing a holographic window to Weisrifan: "You should also take a look, at least... there should be something valuable. result."

"...This is?" Weisruifan couldn't help but came over curiously, and the title of the report on the light screen instantly attracted her attention:

"Some Secrets About the Birth of the Universe"
