Star Empire

"Now it seems... there are not many options, no, there are no options."

In any case, if you want to start over now, you must make a decision quickly - the empire has just experienced a serious war that almost destroyed the country. The last string of stability of the entire empire is about to collapse. The highest authority of the empire has now been reduced to Two remnant souls, the empire was seriously injured, and in the chaotic void, the huge and dangerous Σ corrupted fleet was still wandering...

If you still want to survive, it can be said that it is very clear what to do next.

…

"The ultimate technical deduction module... Your Majesty, even if this is really an unstable test item... this is something remarkable in an absolute sense." Zhai Cahir carefully inspected his completely reborn body and soul. Beside him, Agnas and Ikarim also expressed surprise.

In the defense line defense battle not long ago, when they were fighting the Σ fleet on the last layer of defense, Σ's strange firepower penetrated the defense group composed of layers of battleships and fortress stars guarding the universe's benchmark stable anchor, and this As a result, after the spacecraft was destroyed, the souls of a large number of fleet members were seriously injured under the multiple chaotic information storms.

Ha... Maybe we should "thank you" to those large and small flying wings and celestial fortresses for not causing the end of the world wantonly. The remaining defense lines relied on the orderly world structure that could barely be maintained to drag these few people to complete the soul uploading;

Let’s be more “thank you” for their unclear evacuation. If it’s later, the hard casualties at the second authority level will increase significantly. By that time, even the civilization that survives now will be lost. The most valuable part - the powerful and unique soul can still only be cultivated and cannot be directly copied.

But now, these problems no longer exist for the time being. With the help of the Arcane Throne's ultimate technological deduction module, a new soul-body reshaping system has been put into use. With the help of these brand-new equipment, the remaining souls are still preserved. The seriously injured were still able to revive.

It is not very difficult to mass-produce leeks grown from culture media, which generally have "blank slate souls". However, it is not very difficult to make these individuals that have begun to mutate in high-level information and whose own information composition is extremely complex in such a short period of time. It takes a long time to repair itself back to its heyday, which is unimaginable for the star technology of the old era.

"It's just that these extremely advanced equipment still cannot be widely promoted. Including me, and Li'er, who has lost her memory and original personality, cannot make good use of the current "power" to control it. It’s still a small matter. Now our world is strengthened by the use of cosmic benchmark stabilizing anchors. At this level, at least I don’t have to worry about accidentally losing control of my power and burning down the empire’s territory. Lil seems to be trying her best to avoid this. The problem is, when I went to see her a few days ago, the activity level of Void Fierce Sun had been suppressed to an extremely low level... This is a problem of power level, and..."

"Possible system backdoor problem..." Zhai Cahir held his chin and thought for a moment, "In fact, I personally think that there should be no backdoor problem inside these two arks. If His Majesty Weisruifan is really like you Having said that, the abnormalities she can detect must be at an extreme level... At present, we can only temporarily consider her to be reliable..."

"After she used the power of "void" to clear the problems you encountered, if the temporary guess premise is considered, such problems have been cleared at that moment. Your Majesty, unconscious behavior may sometimes be more reliable. And Considering that these two Arks can be activated and used successfully even by you, then they should have considered similar issues when they were first developed. This is just thinking about the Ark from our perspective... It does not even rule out, "Doomsday" "The Ark" carries a meaning that may be quite different from what we think..."

"...If we consider the operation of this ark in the way we can think of...in any case, even if it is Σ, the knowledge and technology mastered by an individual should be limited relative to the entire civilization. If there is a backdoor, then these backdoor loopholes will also cause great security risks when Ark performs its functions according to the plan, which may destroy their original plan in advance."

"Theoretically, this is indeed the case, but... the most important thing is that there is indeed no choice now. Everyone does. We can only..."

"...Based on an unclear result, try to find an explanation that may be beneficial to you from a few words..." Zhai Cahill can certainly understand what Vidoville means, "If we have no choice...persuasion It’s not a bad idea to accept this result yourself and consider the possible residual value…”

In addition, let me correct you... If the meaning is correct, the target of Doomsday Ark is wider than everyone expected, maybe even much wider..."

Vidoville shook his head, "But it's okay for now. I still have control over these two spaceships. I can separate a technical extreme deduction module for you to study. You don't need to understand the operating rules of the equipment itself. , just need to figure out how it works.”

"Your Majesty, my personal speculation is that the effective method of the technical extreme deduction module is very likely to be very similar to our body shaping equation." Ikarim suddenly took over the conversation,

"The effective part of the technical extreme deduction module is most likely a space containing a solidified information process, and any information group defined as technology can obtain a space that can be considered as a technology after passing through that solidified information process space. It is an optimal solution without flaws, and there should be infinite types of such optimal solutions. In the process of development, technology itself constantly improves details and repairs defects within its applicable scope."

"That's right, at least it didn't use the crystal energy weapon blueprint I memorized to launch the best pistol." Vidoville shrugged, and after snapping his fingers, a bright light was already shining on everything in space like a star.

"Technological inheritance cannot only have finished products without a complete set of theoretical knowledge to match them. The interruption of inheritance caused by this will be more terrifying than a group of primitive people mastering a vacuum zero-point energy bomb that can be detonated by pressing a switch. Therefore, this thing should be There is a self-decoding system, or it can be said that it can reversely analyze the extreme technology it deduces in some ways, and even analyze its own mysteries. This aspect is left to you to study."

"As you command, Your Majesty."

That huge, metal Rubik's Cube has some kind of strange power and influence. You don't have to worry about energy supply problems after it leaves the Ark, and you don't have to worry about Ikarim really making that edge ten long. Tens of thousands of kilometers of huge metal blocks were broken into pieces - it was the core of the ship before it was activated. It was not on the same level as the empire, and the difference between them might not be well described.

…

Vidoville almost forgot about time as he struggled to study his "appendiated body" in the void. However, as such a behemoth that was so powerful and complex that it was difficult to sort out its details and levels, even with their own adaptive systems and natural The decoding system is very powerful, and seems to have matched the fluctuations of the main consciousness to a certain extent, but it is difficult for a completely mismatched main consciousness to be completely familiar with the use of these two battleships...

Quite huge.

"Zhai Cahir, tell me how to modify the underlying protocol." In the remaining network of the empire, a somewhat "sizzling" voice suddenly sounded.

"Your Majesty, the network itself is still in a state where it can barely operate reasonably. In this state, the underlying protocol is located in the entity-constrained existence layer in the network structure. It provides the function of transmitting data paths and transmitting data for all data devices. , at the same time, it also provides the task of activating the data path. Once the underlying protocol is damaged, unless the pollution of the death wave causes the function of the underlying protocol itself to be missing like in the Exile Chronicles, otherwise this will be the most severe problem in the network. The solid and most basic part is also the part that is most related to the existence of the entire network.”

"Hmm... In other words, as long as the physical constraints of each terminal in the entire network can be modified, the problem of the highest authority blocking the network can be eliminated?"

Vidoville finally raised some spirits. The highest authority itself can be used as the "highest authority". The essence of its existence is that once the data transmission request does not pass the judgment of this layer, the physical connection will not be activated. However, in the past, this judgment The process is to treat the emperor as a piece of hardware that responds to every judgment. Once the person with the highest authority crashes, all requests will lose response, and naturally the operation of the entire network will collapse. However, from the current point of view, after Zhai Cahir actually raised the issue, this issue does not seem to be very troublesome. "

"Indeed, we have been working hard to reduce the impact of this layer of response process on the overall network for hundreds of thousands of years, but as you can see, we can only determine the survival rate and possibility of the hardware by maximizing the The dispersion efficiency can be used to avoid the lack of response caused by the death of the person with the highest authority, but this may not be a problem that can be solved by force..."

Zhai Cahir paused for a moment and said that there was nothing he could do in this regard, "Once this underlying agreement completely fails, we may lose all the equipment and even control of part of our body. Your Majesty, you are going to... "

"I have saved the snapshot of civilization." After a slight silence, Vidoville's eyes flashed with a faint white light, "Perhaps, the system of the Void Matrix can be put to use."

"What...system?"

"Holy Will and Tree of World Line, this is the tactical code name that I came up with after a detailed understanding of myself. I hope it doesn't sound too strange. For now, we don't have anything very appropriate. The standard equipment that can be directly used to correspond to these groups of equipment. According to the meaning of the word, the divine will can be called the disassembly-information assignment permission coverage system..."

"Based on the two high-level information of white matter and crystal energy, the most common mode of action is that after the white matter is converted into white matter radiation, a round of disassembly is first carried out to completely expose the assignment point of the target information group, and then the The assignment information points modulated by the crystal energy are injected and the control authority is controlled. This level of operation assignment exposure is very high. The highest degree can allow the external assignment to directly recreate the original substance, and the maximum effective limit and effective range of this thing are also large. It’s unimaginable. I have tried it. Even after the crystal energy and white matter have begun to show a chaotic state similar to the void, the system can still be 100% effective without damage."

"...Your Majesty, with such a dangerous possible effect, are you sure you want to launch an attack on the Empire's network?"

"So there are buffer backups, the world line tree, the information mirror deduction and the tactical code name of the extraction system. The latter is also a coined word. I have saved a snapshot of the entire civilization. This snapshot is not huge in terms of the total amount of information. We can also perform deductions or even direct coverage, but I don’t intend to operate on the conceptual level when we are not familiar with it, and I don’t intend to do this kind of narrow path myself. Use it. The main function is to preserve our current civilization, and when necessary, delete evolved information, mobilize mirrors, and reset everything."

"In addition, there may be an extra layer of security - I can't think of any more advanced and unstable control method. Maybe this can become a reliable security barrier." Vidoville quickly added.

"Your Majesty, please let me ask, the source of this system comes from... the cosmic baseline stabilizing anchor?"

"Perhaps so. Judging from the scope of influence that I can perceive, its function is indeed very similar to the cosmic benchmark stabilizing anchor in some functions, but its world line expansion and closing capabilities are very strong and more accurate. If If all the assignment structures are really used, it will probably be immeasurably powerful. It can even stably promote information reversal on a very large scale, or enable multi-threaded flow of time in a very large range without any mutation. In other words, This device should be able to put a sufficient amount of information into the "front end" of a steadily extending world line."

"Theoretically, our cosmic benchmark stabilizing anchor has the ability to buffer possible paradoxes, but our ability to buffer paradoxes lies in unstable mergers... The world line that was originally stabilized by the influence of control and reality will be affected and temporarily re-emerge. Expansion, but with the crushing intervention of the new technical system... maybe there will be other changes..."

"After such a process, when the original information returns to the main world line, the world line occupied by the affected information will disappear or be blurred and reorganized, and the different time and space information will return to the main world through the world line detour. Between the world lines Space is made up of various connections and forks. It is very simple to find a different path to the same destination while taking advantage of the loopholes. However, if it is accurately controlled, it is not as good as the world line tree. This system should already be able to Precise regulation can be achieved at the "minimum" level that can have a practical impact on the world."

"Um……"

"Believe me, since there is no turning back now and we have to go on like this, then we will do things thoroughly and simply. I can guarantee that my personality is still stable, and Weisrifan can confirm this. I will I will try my best to correct all problems. I hope that after this adjustment, everything in civilization will get back on the right track of development, in every sense."

In another land that was shining with golden and white light, which reversed the concept of the capital star's up and down, a serious voice used the communication network that was still preserved to deliver the news of the entire network's correction to everyone in an instant.

Everything in the sixteen worlds came to a standstill. Everyone's movements, life activities, and the jumping golden glow of the universe's benchmark stability anchor also came to a standstill, and the universe itself related to its mirror image also completely stopped functioning. , time and space are still, laws have stopped, and the entire star civilization has even been in a large "virtual space" created by the Void Matrix to a certain extent.

In silence, white light swept across all dimensions, commands were split, and protocols were reorganized. At this moment, the network itself should have completely collapsed. However, under the condition that it is already in the absolute stillness of its own reference system, this short-term The impact of the destruction had been completely frozen before taking effect, and the golden streamer reconnected some of the severed network connection structures.

…

Three days later, there was a network-wide meeting.

"Everyone, I want to hear everyone's opinions." With the Arcane Throne and the Void Matrix acting as communication relay stations, signals from different universes can be transmitted to each other without delay. At the "center" of all nodes, Victorville said seriously Examining the entire civilization, "I have corrected all the problems with the civilization's hardware in the past two eras. We must get back on track, but we will never forget the past like this. Here, I hope to find a way that can be used by everyone. A decision that will be accepted by all and will affect the direction of our civilization."
