Star Empire

"... Taking the order and law of dismantling information groups as its own special attribute?" Vidoville frowned slightly, "If that's the case... this kind of "energy" can be said to be very dangerous. If it has another model, Because of its level spreading ability or secondary attributes such as infection attribute, I even have to wonder if it is a variant of the death wave."

"Your Majesty, please don't make such a subjective definition rashly. This will seriously affect your judgment and that of everyone around you. Judging from the results currently available, the special properties of white matter are indeed related to the death tide. It’s somewhat similar, but also completely different in quite a few ways.”

"...The most obvious point is that white matter is an obviously existing and stable information in my information field of view. But in my memory, I have stared at the death tide and its derivatives many times...I I clearly remember that the Death Tide is either an abrupt gap in the information field of view, or a pure black mist. Taken together, it is like a piece of the world has been directly dug out."

Zhai Cahir plucked up the courage, and after searching for those unpleasant memories that could directly shake his mind and soul, he finally decided to speak out:

"With all due respect, although the death tide destroyed our home world, destroyed five exile arks and most of the escaped population, and also caused a series of very serious accidents, from the beginning to the end, I based on these phenomena The observed results are that in places contaminated by the death tide, the information group is disintegrating and destroying on its own, but the death tide itself does not show any additional information... Until now, I can't be sure about the death tide. Is it a certain existence or a simple phenomenon?"

"Okay." Vidoville nodded, "I'm arbitrary about this part."

"As for the properties of these high-level energies themselves... they may be directly related to the void itself. No matter what kind of high-level information, it itself can be considered a subset of the total set of void, and in an absolute sense. True subset, if you think about it this way, then it cannot be denied that... white matter has inherited part of the decomposition and devouring ability or assimilation ability of void."

"It has to be said that if it can be properly utilized, white matter has very strong weaponization potential. At the same time, this strange existence also poses a new test to our current fleet and defense-related technologies."

"The level of the crystal energy shield is indeed very high, and it can also perform very complete anti-phase annihilation on the target, but the crystal energy shield itself is not without loopholes in the information structure. The wall can be made stronger. Materials, but if external information can directly destroy and delete the theoretical basis for maintaining a solid material, then it will be useless no matter how good the materials are... It seems that this thing is really a headache."

Vidoville pressed his eyebrows vigorously, "If this thing is currently producing unknown changes and releasing white mist, even the crystal energy shield may not be able to contain this small energy mass, let alone various physical equipment. Now...are we really capable of using it?"

"We can even fly in the void. This thing is indeed a bit weird in nature, but compared to the void... it's far worse. And even if it doesn't work, we can still use enough materials to completely shut it down..."

"If we want to be able to control it... we must first thoroughly study the properties of white matter itself. At present, white matter itself is safe and stable in contact with the outside world, but under certain conditions, white matter will undergo certain changes. , the final result is to produce that dim glow that looks like white mist. As soon as this glow comes into contact with other information, the dismantling ability of white matter will come into play. This may be the process of white matter naturally assigning value to the outside world. phenomenon. If this is the case, then there is a solution: "

"First of all, we can try to study clearly when and under which state white matter will complete decay, and then bring this process under our control, or create some kind of isolation force field similar to the world barrier, so as to It uses its own self-consistent stability to prevent white matter-derived products from "attaching"... In short, there are many ways, but it will take time to solve these problems."

"It doesn't matter." Vidoville shrugged, "You can study the white matter samples and the mathematical structure of the white matter space channel as long as you don't blow up the universe - now our laws are almost universally effective in our universe. Don’t destroy them easily before they are fertile enough to be used as a testing ground.”

"Of course, in order to ensure safety, we will open a separate order field in the void to conduct relevant research..." Zhai Cahill took over the strange mathematical composition data of space channels, but looked at the crystals that had been put in the safe. He, Cavinrel and others still stared at the white matter sample that could be encapsulated and re-sealed in a force field.

"Your Majesty... there may be some problems with our previous considerations. In theory, these things can use mental power to expand space storage, but in fact..."

"Tsk... I'm careless..." After carefully thinking about the design goals and the actual situation, Victorville suddenly discovered that the actual use of the extra expanded space can be said to be somewhat useless——

The portable space of mental power has existed for thousands of years. During this long time, most people have been comfortable using this special ability that can be said to be inherent in the body. In the past, no one has considered the danger. Whether sexual existence can be put into the space created by one's own spirit, but the result of subsequent research is that - crystal energy shields can still be set up in the spiritual space, and for objects that need to be stored in such a portable space In other words, the defensive power of the crystal energy shield itself can be said to be indestructible.

However, at present, the trouble of white matter samples exceeds any existence in the past, and the harm it can cause cannot be compared with previous situations or accidents - who knows how long it will disintegrate once the white matter starts to change. What structure was dropped? What kind of impact does it have?

How many similar dangerous structures will there be in the future?

"...It seems that we should use the old method."

After much thought, Zhai Cahir still found a way to put the thickest crystal energy shield on this safe deposit box, and sent it to the research and testing site with the highest strength escort ship.

…

"Isendel, Kalost, you two wait a moment." After everyone left, Vidoville left the two of them alone.

"His Majesty?"

"Regarding the situation of the fleet, I currently have a new request." Vidoville looked at the two people sitting opposite him: "Currently we are constantly discovering new existences, and our technology is constantly being upgraded, and as we go forward As the situation continues to develop, we are likely to continue to encounter more updated situations. Judging from this situation alone, it can be said that our spacecraft has encountered new problems."

"We used to worry that the special crystal energy mutation ability would interfere with the operation of the spacecraft control system, and concerns about arcane energy also focused on this. After the relevant aspects matured, our Immortal-class A1-type dreadnought was upgraded to The Immortal-class A2 type has been created, but if external information changes at this rate...if we have to rely on changing the drawings to ensure the suitability of the fleet...that is absolutely unrealistic. There will be many problems in the design itself, and in this case Updating will consume a lot of time, and it is very likely that during the process of upgrading, we will need to tear up the drawings many times."

"...So, I don't want the method of modification and upgrade of the battleship to be consistent with the method we used in the old federation, and we are still using the old method of modification and upgrade and blueprint upgrade. I hope that the entire battleship can be regarded as one Execute the program, and we can directly upgrade parts of the warship or the entire warship at any time through more sophisticated and direct means, just like adding patches and add-on packs."

"About this part... Some ships do have similar technology, that is, upgrade backdoors. But from my personal point of view, it is very dangerous if there is a system backdoor that can directly operate the entire ship... …" Mentioning this, and thinking of the not-so-smart but very dangerous backdoor to life, Calouste couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

"Under the unification of information, everything is information. General Caluster, it seems that the lesson Cavernrel taught you still failed to correct your point of view..." Eisendel shook his head, "This The backdoor only gives a fleet or R\u0026D department the ability to directly provide "update packages" or "plug-ins" to any subordinate warship. It does not directly hand over the control or even the composition of the spacecraft itself... It will definitely be strictly controlled. If the protection is directly broken through and occupied...if such a big technical gap exists, then we will definitely be crushed."

"...Don't forget what we agreed."

"Um……"

"Mature ports that are more suitable for mass production can be achieved, but we also need time to debug the relevant information translation equations. For large warships, downloading such update packages is indeed more troublesome. Because of this The operation is not realized in the absolute mathematical space. In this case, the completely autonomous mathematical model cannot be used directly, and more external active intervention is required..." Eisendel raised his head, and the golden Mouzi flashed in his eyes. The streaks of light are a phenomenon caused by the high-speed calculation of the individual's small mathematical rate core - "We can handle it."

"Then, do it."

After the two men stood up and left, Vidoville began to think about the decisions he had made during this period and which direction he should develop - yes, he is the Star Emperor, and if the stars shine, everything will return To put it in terms of proverbs from the same starting point, sooner or later he will become an oppressor or dictator, an obstacle that drags down the entire civilization, or even a moth. However, the problem now is that the star is not big enough and may not be able to shine. He did.

He is a manager who does not need to handle all the details of the entire empire in detail, but needs to participate in the decision-making of the civilization and ultimately take the decision when the empire encounters a fork in the road. The person who comes up with ideas is also the role and responsibility he should play when moving forward with the empire in the future.

Something seemed to flash through his mind, but this spark was so weak that it didn't give him any new ideas or ideas that could make his eyes shine.

"It seems that you are about to get rid of your own troubles and find your own path to move forward with the empire?" The queen who had been sitting in the corner before did not know when she had sat beside him, "Don't forget , you and me, you and the empire, you and anyone and any existence belonging to the empire...the advancement and retreat of each other are inseparable."

Restoration year 926.

"Your Majesty, it's strange that in the void around us, the intensity of Genesis activities has once again dropped to an incomprehensible level... It's as if everything has stagnated again after the last explosion of Genesis activities... for such a long time. , our territory has only three more universes, and in the records of the North Celestial Information Terminal Control Tower of all universes, there is silence in the void." At this point, Kalost suddenly paused, " Well, Your Majesty, the silence here does not include the reactions of several chiefs at the testing ground..."

Vidoville examined the reports sent back from the spiritual network, where it can be clearly seen that the daily reports from the control towers of the North Celestial Pole Void Information Terminal of the sixty colonial universes are the detection of quasi-energy void information fluctuations. Source XX, fluctuation intensity XX, have been recorded... The source of these large-scale void information fluctuations is the testing ground built by Cavinrel and others. Their mission is to try to control white matter, but unfortunately, white matter Matter can blast their testing ground into the void along with themselves every time.

"It is said that they have obtained the conditions for the generation of white matter radiation, but the current problem is that restricted materials have not been made yet, and it is difficult to forge the white matter itself into a certain material or a certain conventional structure. Once these structures appear spontaneously If the form transformation produces radiation... the controllability is too low."

"Are we encountering difficulties again..."

Vidoville muttered as he looked at the report in his mind, "By the way, Kalost, the cosmic reference anchors everywhere have been broadcasting crystal energy radiation to the entire universe as required, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, all cosmic benchmark stabilizing anchors have added crystal energy factors into the information connection lines. At the same time, the stabilizing anchors themselves have always directly broadcast modulated invisible crystal energy radiation into space. Currently, all universes All the stars in the planet have varying degrees of crystal energy infection... You..."

"That is to say...at present, under our control, spontaneous life or even civilization will not appear in these worlds, right?"

"...Yes, Your Majesty, according to your order and our arrangements for the Heart of the World and the Cosmic Base Anchor...the calculation process will prevent most self-consistent information bodies caused by evolutionary algorithms from appearing..."

"Understood - continue with the status quo."
