Star Empire

The world barrier, the almost infinitely extending edge of order and chaos, the order field wrapping the Silver Star Sword is quietly "sticking" to the edge of the world, floating like a bubble.

Inside this world, there is a civilization.

The first one discovered by the Protoss Expeditionary Force, located in the disturbed area of ​​Σ civilization, is a civilization that can light up the universe and require the gods to start taking it seriously.

God's actions may contain a huge amount of information - and what they will transform into are various complex symbolic properties. As the first such existence, when the mapping relationship between the two parties is established, this civilization, which may not be so rare in the void, will also be invisibly endowed with absolute symbolic meaning.

In such a situation... if they want to come into contact with such a civilization, after a sufficient level of preliminary observation, the team may first use a micro-detector capable of information invisibility to scan the entire world to understand the development of this highly developed civilization. At what level; understand the interaction between civilization and the internal structure and development process of the world; understand part of the culture of the civilization, such as history and etiquette, as well as their possible beliefs and possible totems, etc., before further considering the relationship with They make contact.

A civilization that can rely on its own strength to fill the space of the world line with the highest weight in the universe, even if it has not yet come into contact with the unified theory of information, has achieved so much in terms of research on mathematical systems and understanding of the nature and overall concept of the universe. The level is also similar to the level of part of the original theory of the birth of the entire world.

At this level, there are countless worlds across the void, able to weave rules, set constants, establish concepts, and even follow the instructions, and rely on one's own power to extract the "truth" needed to achieve any goal from the void. A super-civilization suddenly appeared, and the individuals that were part of this super-civilization were "gods" in the true sense...

For this quasi-super civilization, which may not yet fully understand the unification of information, and has not seen the plurality and endless dimensions of the void, it will bring massive turmoil in an absolute sense. Turbulence may promote the further development of this civilization, or it may further destroy the entire civilization. In this regard, the experiences of the Protoss and Σ are interoperable.

Directly freeze and cut out that civilization and the surrounding living environment, as small as a galaxy, a piece of land, a ring, as large as an entire star system, and gradually correct the world line in the new world so that this civilization changes from sovereignty to From the projection of virtual information in the world, it can be gradually merged with the main world, or by directly "downloading" or "story record-transfer", most civilizations can be installed.

However, quasi-super civilizations that have developed to the point where they can occupy the entire universe and even achieve a certain level of development on a more fundamental basis have already taken root so deeply in this world that the entire world has developed some kind of attachment. If it's sexual, then... the contact process is a must.

Now the situation is different - the expedition has just begun.

As the founder and ruler of the multidimensional world order in the void, gods certainly have the means to directly add and delete the entire world, and naturally can also directly add and delete the existence attributes of civilizations, and even more than that - just like adding and deleting information from within a large memory, these Civilizations all over the world can also be treated in this way, but only in an ideal state, that is absolutely safe.

However, in such a process, the civilization's cognition and living environment will inevitably be disturbed. Even after the underlying probabilistic world line is significantly distorted or missing, the trajectory of the civilization will inevitably converge and end. Towards decline.

…

"The probe array has completed scanning this world." The results obtained by the probe are directly synchronized in the corresponding consciousness thread:

"...The verification is completed. In the starry world, the quasi-super civilization existing in this world has now developed to the peak of space navigation. It has the power to transmit information at super-light speed by using bypass laws and information compensation, but it has not yet fully realized it. To the original structure of the world itself.”

While studying the information that appeared in her consciousness, the shadow of the Elf Queen maintained a strong enough connection with the prism floating in the palm of her hand:

"The underlying world line of this world has experienced considerable losses, and the virtual information projection seems to have been consumed by more than 90%. This civilization has a low degree of contact with Σ, and the outbreak of the chaos sea disaster seems to have been blocked by the world management terminal of this world Although the world is no longer stable, the leakage of the trend of destruction is not serious."

"Σ's world management terminal and the remnants after the outbreak of chaos...each of them can interfere with our line of sight and make them more blurry and fragile. In other words, we are not completely sure when we try to deal with this After the civilizations in the world come into contact, how will they react to our arrival?"

".The "story" is ready, all variables are stable, all individuals begin to perform deductions, and part of the information environment enters the lower-level narrative state. Including the projection of this supreme god, the "high-level narrative" individual reset is blurred into the image, and handles its own Hume Values ​​and spillover signals, probability and development may be blurred, entering a state of evolution..."

After all the entries were calibrated one by one, the Shadow of the Elf King responded: "There are not many places where the word absolute can really be used. It's time for us to deal with what we should do. Σ is located in the basic world management terminal of this world - The degree of external atresia is very high.”

"It has descended to the main weight world and started trying to contact this civilization."

"There should be more words that need to be clarified to each other, but it doesn't seem to be very appropriate yet..."

…

The working capacity of the world management terminal has been greatly reduced. The integration process of the order field to which the Silver Star Long Sword belongs and the world barrier is quite smooth. In fact, this process should not have happened in the first place - the gods are at the fixed point of order, and the symbols they possess Authority enables their authority to be immediately recognized by the world when they come into contact with any world. But when such a bright information beacon intervened in a world affected by Σ, Σ's world management terminal did not respond at all.

"It seems that the world management terminal has completely transferred the internal and external information circulation to a state of self-discipline. Now the parts responsible for maintaining the entire world are only those insignificant broadcast antennas. I am afraid that these worlds have never been so fragile since their birth."

The brightness of the illusory light and shadow suddenly increased and then dimmed immediately. Dots of light and faint colored stripes spread out from the sticky ink-like field of vision, and quickly spread and spread as the battleship's sinking process was completed, becoming all over the place. The dazzling sea of ​​​​stars and gorgeous nebula structures in the star vault.

"The pollution level of the highest-weighted world line is very low, the narrative scan is stable, the world line has not been greatly affected, and the structure is stable. No metaphysical destructive phenomenon related to the chaotic sea has been detected. The information given by Σ is described accurately."

"The history and experience of this civilization generally seems to be extraordinary. The world has undergone quite significant changes - they have experienced several large-scale civil wars, but now, everything in this civilization is so stable. This is also It's a certain degree of determination." The Elf King's eyes lingered for a while, and he discovered some incredible peaks and valleys in the mist.

"The chaotic sea will almost infinitely amplify the weak and destructive parts of all wisdom."

".The lower-layer data is finally connected. Start connecting to the Civilization Network and start explaining the environment."

There was almost no calculation game, and the god's communication request directly broke through all the protection systems in the overall communication network of this civilization. Based on what he learned about the civilization's diplomatic etiquette and its own culture, habits, and terminology, God sent a communication request composed entirely of information and words within the civilization to the highest center of the entire network.

For all the purposes and details, as well as various explanations from outside the world, etc., the gods did their best to hide nothing from them. The gods do not intend to lie. On the one hand, the power of divine words is too great. On the other hand, even if the gods control their own power and weave some wording that is more likely to satisfy diplomatic appetite, they will have to tie up with more people in the future. Energy to ensure the value of what you are doing now.

Beyond that, the most important thing is the harsh reality.

According to the leaked information, it is estimated that at the last moment when the former overlords fell into madness, their final bridge-building army was fully capable of fighting the two major protoss in a head-to-head manner with their own strength without the Void Will being activated. Ability. Even now, with the eternal sleep of the old overlords, more than 99% of the main force of civilization that was once able to change the structure of the void has been annihilated in the black tide of the chaotic sea, but the remaining parts are still capable of fighting against the gods. Army.

Everything the gods do has its symbolic value and deserves to be taken seriously. In addition to fighting in such "away conditions" far away from the divine world, the gods themselves do not have much "extra energy" left for civilization. God protects order and strives for the power and space for all living beings to survive, but survival and mercy are not without value and conditions.

"That facility is very interesting. The Divine Consciousness Network has understood that its basic structure matches the corresponding technical system." Although it is at least a million light-years away from the Silver Star Sword, under the eyes of God, everything has been All the details you need can be seen at a glance.

"The world itself has unlimited potential for development, and the world structures formed are different from each other, and the technical systems formed in the process of exploring the truth from the origin according to the structure of the world are also very interesting. That remote self-sustaining communication station The various technologies contained can explain to a considerable extent what kind of technical system they are using to survive among the stars."

"Essential particle accumulation materials, space anchoring technology, vacuum amplification base station... They already have a sustainable power system that can be considered from the second level alone. By drilling the gap that gives the field and world expansion structure by mass, they can continue to make The vacuum decays out the mass, and then the chaotic mass focus is disassembled into simpler elementary particles through decay. However, in terms of practical applications, annihilation mass-energy conversion seems to be commonly used, and the negative feedback thermocouple power station..."

"Under certain circumstances, it should be said that it is a quite common practice to first exploit the loopholes of certain worlds and then gradually master the truth of the world. After all, after the Big Bang, the shining embers of order can be easily and directly utilized. The part is too superficial for the world. Well... Now our "lighthouse" has been noticed, and there are at least a dozen radar systems shining on us. It seems that the deep space navigation technology of this civilization is also really good, Reacting on a cosmic level is pretty quick.”

"Look, it doesn't take long for them to mobilize the fleet on such a large scale."

Whispers, among the "whispers" based on the divine network of communication, many gazes from themselves or from shadows crossed the limit between the world and the void and gathered here. The vast and deep stars, the depths of the sea of ​​​​stars where countless galaxies spread wantonly, these unremarkable existence attributes were demoted by the will of God, and they had to meekly retreat to the "lower level", leaving behind waves of fluctuations. shadow——

"They're coming."

With the starry sky as the background, about a few light minutes away from the Silver Star Sword, with the elongated black lines gradually returning to their original appearance, a fleet that can be said to be considerable in size is like a cluster of lights. Star clusters, they constantly appear from the transition of light and shadow with almost no fluctuations.

After this huge fleet composed of warships with constant curvature space geometry shapes such as black cylinders and ellipsoids jumped here, it was like a lighthouse that could be seen from any corner of the universe, on every world line and all levels. The gleaming Protoss warship didn't seem to have any hostility, or even any intention to be on guard.

"There is no intention to attack, covering the level they can reach." Donghua Xingyi's attention was also attracted, "The calculation seems to have ignored part of the content, which is a bit unusual. There is not even a warning."

"Signal, a common format for civilized plain text, is an invitation letter, and the honorific level used is very high." Even though there are dozens of layers of spaceship armor and structures, the shadow of the Elf King can feel the presence of the fleet opposite him through the cold space. The surprise that spreads over and some kind of emotional fluctuations that are being exerted.

"Dear guests, if all that is true, and you really come from another world, and really have the incredible power described in the words on the notification letter you sent, then our ruler Hope to meet you." After a slight silence, another more direct communication request was captured by the Silver Star Sword's system.

For this civilization, the tone of the passages translated from Wanxiang ideographic expressions is quite sincere and clear.
