Star Empire

"Detailed records of the natural development process of natural civilization within the empire's jurisdiction."

Observers are given this mission.

The empire has long ago, or deliberately forgotten, perhaps most of its development experience in the initial moments, and after learning that a considerable and inseparable part of its own development comes from Σ's intentional or unintentional influence, even if After adding Occam's razor and eliminating all doubts related to this, the empire gradually began to reduce the influence of most of its past, and even almost all the history and experiences before the explosion of the crystal energy vortex on the entire civilization. the weight of.

This is equivalent to saying in disguise that the empire cut off all of its "childhood" and everything it accumulated during that era.

Under such circumstances, especially after a considerable part of the existence experience has become unreliable, the empire must find a way to introduce external information to fill the gaps in the entire experience - with the empire's current level and technology recovery Ability, even if civilization suffers heavy losses, as long as all the information in the heavy fortress world is continuously activated - the material conversion device and the void forge, the size of the fleet can be restored quickly.

But for a star civilization that has a high level of technology and rationality but has not produced any actual qualitative changes in individual will, such a large-scale experience represents a very dangerous castle in the air.

In order to regain the bricks that connect the beginning and the sky, in the "Observer World" in the fourth sky area, there is a large group of individuals who are given the mission of observation. Observation and recording are their most basic tasks and missions.

However, even if Isendel or even Vidoville talked about this matter themselves, they had to admit that although this mission can be said to have many profound implications for the empire, it is not necessarily a mission for those observers. What an excellent job—

The photons sent and received by the line of sight can interfere with the subject under observation; when the amount of information is large enough, the information interaction established by the observer's line of sight may inadvertently overturn those who have a total amount of information compared to the Empire. There is a huge gap between ordinary civilizations, so their "telescopes" have to be designed very carefully.

In fact, the purpose of this telescope is not to allow those observers to have a clearer and wider field of vision, but to help filter out the leakage of forces that life cannot completely rely on itself to suppress due to its own limitations - such as strong observation. It’s just the gaze of the reader.

On this basis, there is also a time system issue that can be said to be close to a "series": if we look at the current observation records, the empire's information evolution time is a truth vector directly inherited from the world's primordial trend, and this It can be said to be a very high-level measurement method that is very close to the origin. In fact, for most living things, the subjective time determined through the physical world and the low-level physical evolution time floating in the second and third-level world structures. It has very great compatibility and unit flexibility - especially in the state of fusion or semi-fusion with the main axis of imperial information.

Therefore, the overall timeline determined by the Imperial Network can allow for consensus at the last moment of information evolution even when the conventional physical time in each universe seems to be very different.

The impact of the time system problem is equivalent to requiring observers to concentrate on watching many surveillance pictures at the same time, and each surveillance picture has a very large gap in playback multiples - because conventional civilization is too fragile, Therefore, the process of expanding from one reincarnation to the imperial standard information evolution year is not very thorough.

It is possible to play one picture ten times slower and another five times faster. Even though the base of observers is not very small, it is not easy to record everything in detail with such a low san value.

And some of the factors that directly test the observer's own will and stability come from themselves: under the current customary reference system, the understanding and perception of the people of the Empire are very different from those of conventional civilized people. Even though "immortal species" as a concept are everywhere, there is still a big gap between a life that can live for hundreds of thousands of years and a life that can live for tens of billions of years or even no theoretical upper limit:

The Imperials can do things year by year, or even by decades. This is not because they delay or neglect these things. In fact, they will not waste any time, but this is a gap at the basic level.

The difference in time units is so large that observing the trends of conventional civilization is as difficult as watching a documentary and pausing to write a viewing note after every frame.

Compared with going directly to the battlefield, the actual environment here is safer, but this is not a superior job. After excluding the direct danger to life, both parties also need an extremely strong will and the ability to maintain their own reason and thinking in the long-term boredom, rhythm or boredom - this is a very serious test.

The front line advances day by day, and observers' records never cease. Since the end of the Renaissance Era, the Arcane Throne and the Void Matrix were inexplicably put online, and a series of great changes have occurred. Regarding the current situation, they can only record the chapter according to their own understanding - after all, they have to verify a definite decision with the above for this thing. Breakpoints and epoch calls are also unrealistic.

"... In the Star Empire civilization record year 27654 (all the following shall be based on this), a large-scale ecological destruction event of the colonial star occurred in the temporary isolation zone where the No. 15-1 civilization was located. The large-scale space experiment of that civilization The fusion reactor on the base platform seemed to have a redundancy gap problem. The constraint shell was broken down, causing the central nuclear reaction zone to come into contact with the outside. Due to the loss of the fusion environment, the nuclear fusion reaction automatically stopped. The space-based orbital station that lost power was destroyed by the planet after losing power. It was directly captured by its own gravity, and its debris impacted the northern hemisphere of the colonial star after several missiles equipped with fusion warheads failed to intercept it, thus triggering a series of turmoil..."

"Start recording. On the 22nd-3rd, the empire observed a civilization that can be regarded as a "magical civilization" or a civilization with "two-way subjective influence." It is similar to the environment in the starting areas of most conventional civilizations. Civilization No. 22-3 was born in a planet-satellite system surrounding a certain "star" in their world. The environment they lived in was also invisibly superimposed with quite a variety of fields - among them There is an energy field that is in a slightly information-activated state, but has a relatively small effect on the world and any component structure of the world..."

"Unlike most fields that can only interact or influence at the same level, this layer may be called magic, or the existence of the metaphysical field can be assigned a secondary external source due to its slight information activation, and the assignment This method comes from some symbolic behaviors or the thinking will of intelligent creatures. Whether this magic field is formed by the decay and inertization of the arcane field requires more detailed sampling and comparison to give more details. The answer. Perhaps we can examine how they use their own will to understand this magic field, and then make semi-permanent or even permanent changes, and compare it with what we have done in directly trying to use the runes of truth to crack the laws of the void. The commonalities and differences between…”

"... In the year 27796 of the Star Empire, a civil war broke out between the civilization 7-6-A and the split civilization C within the same clan - which seemed to be to snatch the existing exploitable resources. , and under the joint catalysis of communication problems and differences in parent star-colonial constraints that existed for a long time, the No. 7-6 civilization split into several different civilizations composed of the same group of intelligent organisms. This battle aims to completely eradicate Part A, which occupies the home planet and claims to be orthodox, putting pressure on other splinter civilizations. Although it is still difficult for them to cross the cantilever cliff with the power they possess, at the beginning Judging from the calculations made after they were integrated into the galaxy, the slightly larger crack was not enough to completely stop their progress, and there were stellar winds and a small but unusually thick nebula dust belt in the cliff... ...According to the analysis of psychological activities, it seems that they think that the huge benefits they can obtain at the moment are more important...without any evaluation, it has been included in the report."

"... In the year 27826 of the Star Empire, several large-scale public demonstrations broke out in Civilization No. 9-2 - their own information dissemination agency called what they did. Based on the continuity of the overall event, it can be concluded It is judged that the background reasons displayed by these large-scale "popular demonstrations" are the concentrated expression of their social contradictions."

“...Since the background environment of this civilization has a relatively small impact of death tide pollution, it can be said that they developed relatively quickly, but the too-rapid development does not seem to be able to properly coordinate the different classes and groups in that civilization. Relatively speaking, the distribution of interests is harmonious, and the original source of the demonstrations is the successful development of several impactful energy technologies and production technologies - the simultaneous emergence of these technologies is enough to completely shake the entire production of the civilization in an instant. relationships and shake up the superstructure, so the original vested interests seem to be preventing these technologies that are beneficial to improving the lives of the vast number of individuals who do not have abundant wealth from being put into practice, and these demonstrations can also be seen as It is the pain of social transformation - some of the content is taken from civilization's own media and has been recorded..."

"Part of the comprehensive summary report, in the year 27895 of the Star Empire, some objective nihilism and subjective egotists appeared in Civilization No. 22-3. After experiencing the development of civilization, some of them seemed to think that they could only rely on their own thinking. and will can change the world, so they began to believe to a certain extent that their thinking and personal will held up the entire world. If they wanted to continue to develop, they must start with their own strength and rely on meditation and other methods to enlighten themselves. As long as you figure everything out, all bottlenecks will be broken... In fact, the accuracy of assigning values ​​to information-activated existences is closely related to the level that can be achieved - rough calculations of assignments may even transfer stones. The position is not as good as throwing it directly with muscle power. And with careful calculation, it is even possible to directly cast barriers with thoughts, or even balance miracles..."

"There are some detailed items in this entry that require additional attention. This civilization had two background environmental influences when this change occurred: 1. They discovered that the magic field was inexhaustible for them; 2. They are currently unable to establish a systematic theory on the use of magic fields. This is somewhat similar to what the Empire experienced when developing the Rune of Truth. After careful study, they may be able to obtain some valuable reference materials. "

"In the year 28013 of the Star Empire, some of the major scientific research and progress projects of Civilization 6-11 were temporarily suspended under the constraints of the civilization's own insistence on what they called "ethics and morals" and the suppression of the national ideological trends. Development. In their eyes, these technologies are very different from before, and their application scope is significantly different, which has seriously affected some of the invisible rules they have always adhered to... This incident was transferred to the normal level II observation continuation level, Preliminary content has been recorded.”

"Higher civilizations have not yet been observed and recorded, and this phenomenon is preserved."

After integrating some parameters, some parameters showed an additional increase, which is speculated to be related to the remaining dead wave. However, it is not yet clear how the intervention should be carried out, so no tentative intervention will be made.

…

"Your Majesty, this is the Sky Zone Command Ship of the First Sky Zone. In the universe where this ship is located, the "Moving Territory" has begun to fight against the corrupted fleet. As of now, our fleet is still unable to form a complete formation in the face of it. The organized Σ spacecraft still had sufficient lethality. However, when some of the enemy's sporadic fleets collapsed and disintegrated, we detected relatively high-intensity information waves. Although they could not be intercepted and deciphered, judging from past experience, we were very It is possible that contact with a large-scale fleet may begin soon.”

In the sea of ​​consciousness of Victorville, Cavinrel's report and the holographic scene picture transmitted through the data link meticulously showed the contact process between the main fleet in the first sky area and the enemy's debris group.

Under the gaze of an information-based perspective, the destruction of the enemy represents the return of a "space point" that is somewhat deviated from the reference point of the laws of the world of time and space to zero. From the actual optical field of view, millions or even more light years away, At a distance, the battlefield scene left by high-efficiency assignment will not be too exaggerated - most of those explosions are not "spectacular"

Even for Dark Star Fortress, the scale of its big explosion will not be much greater than that of a supernova. If the extraordinary information's influence at a distance when it is out of control is not superimposed on the physical world, then the Dark Star explosion will look like nothing more. In the distant and dark background of the universe, a faint red light point that was so weak that it was almost unobservable flashed.

However, there are also surprises - a very small number of explosions will light up and penetrate the entire world, and all issues such as the complexity and depth of the world will be ignored under the illumination of these lights. Why is this?

…

When looking at the cross-world map that was constantly flashing red light spots and weak information fluctuations, and seemed to be divided into valleys and mountain peaks, Victorville not only began to become serious, perhaps, a high-intensity protracted war would soon begin with The empire's pioneering fronts collided head-on.

"...The second observer report?" Vidoville paused for a moment, and then opened the plain documents, and as he looked at them, his face gradually became a little... struggling.

"...Three extinction records, six severe destruction records, and there has not been even one reliable ascension in the report... It is indeed worthy of reference, but this may not be called an investigation report. I don't know if civilization has Qualifications to make an evaluation... But as far as I'm concerned, those native intelligences seem to be committing suicide in batches."
