Star Empire

The sudden appearance of these dazzling order barriers interrupted the original plan of civilization, and also overturned the understanding of the world and the void of these beings with extremely powerful innate attributes and extremely rapid development.

Eliminating the sources of disaster and corrupting the world structure around the territory is one of civilization's never-ending tasks.

However, now, many civilizations that have the ability to launch attacks on those weird corrupted world structures have captured some kind of "dazzling" order field around those chaotic structures.

Their appearance...

The corrupted structure was evaporated in an instant, which was probably a good thing. But what was evaporated simultaneously were the battle fleets located at the inner and outer edges of those structures, and even the battle fleets inside them. They were also completely evaporated in the attack with unknown patterns - even many "evaporation" phenomena occurred even if they happened on their own. In front of his eyes, but the light gradually extinguished and the void became dark and calm again, he would also forget his actions and everything that had just happened.

The fleet would turn back or freeze in place. If you are strong enough to detect some transcendent concepts of nothingness, perhaps those who see all this will still feel fear in the face of unknown phenomena, but if the level is not enough...

The people and things that have passed away will simply cease to exist. They will disappear forever from the past, present and future, and will never be recorded in any memory.

"It is worth being highly vigilant. We don't know whether they have the same structure as the "past". We must..."

"We must pay enough attention. The message the prisoner left us is enough to alert us. Before exploring negotiations, we must be prepared-"

"Yes, yes - you idealistic guys will only repeat the most perfect method under the most ideal situation. That's right, that's right, good, good! But can you look at the reality and see what we come up with? Various calculation results!”

"No matter what we do, we try to proactively explore the situation, and the values ​​given by the crisis formation structure are extremely high!" Facing the new leaders who were greeting and preparing to take pictures of the detectors, the old senior chief wanted to turn off all the crystal screens. Smash it in their faces...

But so what? So what's the effect?

After the Ark fleet landed, civilization is being rebuilt, and more and more ancient technologies are being revived from the dusty history. The territory of civilization is expanding day by day, and the thousands of worlds and countless frequencies that watch the world are just one or a few of the increasingly plump feathers of civilization.

A huge fleet that can cover millions and tens of millions of stars has once again appeared on the zenith of civilization. Among those battleships, there are still some "paint layers" or armor layers that still show the plain nature of the original materials. But around them, there are layers of dark blue battleships engraved with mysterious symbols and eye patterns, and dark brown battleships "engraved" with sharp sword marks - the existence of these colors is not for visual effects, but also Not just to indicate its scientific research stage or status...

The connections between worlds and the world itself are becoming increasingly more controllable.

Yes, the achievements are huge, the results are remarkable, and civilization has indeed risen——

"But is this really a rise? Think about those non-entities that can kill you at a glance, think about the past on this road, and think about the warnings of those consultants!"

"These things are just upgrades of the previous drawings - this is the best way to put it!!"

"What's the difference between these? How to withstand the edge of those reality-distorting swords? If the sun the prisoner said is the same as the giant pillar, we have no other choice but to leave here immediately -"

"Abandon the results? Give up here? Then we want to ask you - according to calculations, your suggestion should be much earlier than it is now, but it is obvious that your suggestion is hundreds of millions of years late! Now, you Do you think we have to give up the achievements of civilization that we have gained with countless blood during this time and start fleeing again because of such anomalies? We can’t build a world-class ark now, and we must also make something It is an extremely painful choice, and if your suggestions and your actions were not so unbalanced a long time ago, we might indeed do what you want now! However, these questions are now raised by you in this way - —Are you much smarter than us??”

"——!!"

…

Fierce quarrels broke out among high-ranking rulers. During what may have been several central star activity cycles, almost all the hidden redundant resources within the entire Irika civilization fusion were used by these nodes. They collected evidence and calculated models. , constantly providing new evidence for your own views...

The new and old policymakers and advisory groups of civilization mobilized almost all the underlying redundant resources in the entire civilization network for this "quarrel".

The collision and interaction between multiple groups of models are more difficult to consider carefully than the struggle and compromise between pure purposes, orders and requirements. Each set of models and each trade-off equation are the result of final calculations based on large amounts of data. Abundant data will always make more results more entangled and more difficult to handle when proving something.

Whether to go or stay, who will be at the helm of the Ark, who should be brought along, whether to explore outside, how to achieve it, how to ensure safety... all of these are problems, very serious problems.

This is the collision between systems and thinking. They also mean the collision between the ideas of the old and new ruling groups, as well as the collision and distortion of the "real interests" of countless lives and civilizations.

Among the countless huge civilization representative groups that represent all the lives and civilization entities of the races behind them, and have abandoned most of the unnecessary "narrow needs" at this moment, and compete with each other for real interests and real needs, what is really broken because of needs and interests? The sharp contradictions that are born are erupting, and because they themselves originate from real "bottom-line interests," they are almost impossible to reconcile quickly.

This civilizational union was once in the exile fleet. Even before it began to be in exile, it once had glory all over the void. It was also hunted by unknown beings and powerful unknown civilizations from all over the void for tens of millions of years or even longer time...

There is no doubt that the void is not safe. From many angles, we should set off immediately after technology has truly made new progress, and the new life system can better inherit the will of this huge collective, and continue to escape into the distant depths of the void, accelerating crazily, infinitely far away from any known The boundary of order will never look back... In this way, there may still be a glimmer of hope, which is no problem, but now, the trend of civilization development has put a question mark on it.

If time were pushed forward a few hundred million years, this might not be a problem. This is indeed the end, but this should not be the final end. Even if civilization really wants to settle here, there should be some wisdom on the new ark, continue to move towards the distant void, avoid all worlds of order, and sail until the end of the void, but -

Several super-large-scale wars that broke out in the early and middle stages of the formation of the Civilization Alliance blocked this plan. Before it began to expand again, within the once limited territory, several dominant previous civilizations at that time extracted everything at any cost. Killed hundreds of billions of galaxies that had been transformed by extraordinary powers, completely scattered them and used them for war...

The purpose, purpose, requirements and so on at that time, it seems that most of them have been lost for some reason now, and in the remaining memories now, that part of the memory is no longer clear. The fierce war, the strife between many parties, the battle can It makes everyone forget time and the past. A large amount of information and a large amount of memories gradually pass by at that stage and eventually become silent...

But at least we can know that after those battles, the huge military system was preserved, while all the once powerful ancient civilization groups retreated as if overnight. That is not normal... too much information seems to have disappeared out of thin air, but check ...how to check?

Brand-new life forms and a brand-new leadership layer of civilization have replaced the ancient system, but even so, the war has continued for a long time - everything is information, which actually means souls, abilities, life, etc. Everything is essentially the same as any being that is loved and despised.

The most ordinary being is no better than any scum, nor any lower than the most powerful battleship and the ruler with the highest authority...

"Wait, if equal weight is determined on this, then——"

Any contradiction will trigger a war, and any weapons and means will be thrown into the battlefield without hesitation - this is more violent than before, and there is no bottom line...

The war has attracted more and more attention, and such a huge operation that attracts attention has also slowed down the research and development of "Ark". There are still sufficient resources to ensure that any task can be carried out as long as it is proposed and has supporters, but Compared to a civilization-level attack team that has become one force... they are difficult to compare.

A long time has passed since everything was finalized.

Many theories, many originally tacit conjectures, now seem to be being denied one by one: being old does not mean being correct, and being old does not mean being wise. In fact, ancient may not represent any attributes. What ancient can represent is only the attributes that "ancient" itself can contain.

Civilization cannot be allowed to remain forever in the shadow of terror spun by the old guys.

But those phenomena and scales that are now considered mysterious and mysterious, without modeling, exact description and measurement system...

Not long ago, prisoners who committed suicide on the edge of the core of civilization showed powerful "reality distortion" phenomena, which attracted the attention of civilization's rulers, but this was just an example.

For tens of billions of years, the reality-warping sword and the super-large-scale phenomenon that can turn back time have never appeared again - but that is not a fantasy! But that’s not unfounded nonsense!

…

In the noisy and complicated network, one node fell into wordless silence.

Ovilaire, or Ovilaire—he, or she, led his team, resources, and attitude to withdraw from the dispute.

As one of the few new individuals in civilization who inherited the soul and part of the will of the ancient leader, "he" also paid a price - from the basic structure and even the path of civilization, his ability was wiped out. The basis for breeding descendants of civilization with the same bloodline. Moreover, in the long period of exile, antiquity often represents a large number of accumulated loopholes... The same is true for him. Perhaps, this can be seen as a clear example of individuals needing to sacrifice most of their own interests and possible futures in favor of overall needs.

Now these loopholes...if the loopholes have been exposed to a large number of extraordinary powers that are difficult to explain...could this also become an...opportunity?

Last time, Hive Father, who had the best relationship with him, used his tentacles to forcefully wake him up. The tentacles failed to pierce the protective suit, and the hive did not exert much stimulation on itself beyond conventional isolation. But after that, I don’t know why, but once a sense of crisis hits my heart, my wrist will feel a dull pain...

It's not safe here.

Premonition... Although the technical level of civilization has reached the universal origin of unity in the void, the technology of civilization is not enough to understand all possibilities in the world of order.

Premonitions are not hallucinations or baseless fantasies that do not need to be taken care of. Especially now, the emergence of these premonitions is not unfounded.

Everything comes out of nowhere, everything happens for a reason...

But now, this cannot be used as evidence to approve or reject something.

But this sense of crisis is not false.

It is difficult to imagine how these information elements, which may have been exactly the same in the void, have gone through different development paths to form such a vastly different order environment. But it seems... they can reach the same destination by different routes - in theory.

Countless chaos and probability are jumping above the invisible dark abyss. They collide with each other and stir up other fluctuations, intertwining into countless chaos. And these chaos also contribute to the infinite possibilities and uncertainties of civilization itself...

"What are you thinking about?"

…

The gap between skill levels is huge.

In the void, the frequency of the order field changes every moment, and this continuous change greatly increases the difficulty of "capturing" them. However, with the continuous emergence of "contacts" and the continuous expansion of losses, The use of theoretical models that are not yet fully proven but are consistent with current observations is considered feasible.

Those unknown order fields will appear along with the emergence of corrupted world structures. When a world is invaded and corroded by disaster, when the order environment of that world drops below a certain critical point, when the end of the world that should have happened does not happen, but begins to turn into something corrupted and distorted, which may be called When living creatures begin to transform, those beings that support the unknown order field will definitely appear.

The main armies began to withdraw, leaving behind a large number of the best and most concealed detectors that civilizations could create.

The level of the detector itself may not be enough to cover up the obvious technical gap between the two.

"I hope that's not our enemy."

According to the observations of the new generation of scholars in Irrika, the basic "energy" that makes up those unidentified order fields should be a "first force of the void" similar to the Adelaor energy, which further proves that the void There may be countless speculations about the "first force of the void". The first force of the void may have different properties, and the categories that each force can include include countless frequencies.

It now seems that the controllers of those order fields may be able to use any frequency of that "first force" unscrupulously. Although they currently have no direct contact with the order fields themselves, it can be determined based on the civilization's own experiments and observation records. , those traces of the existence of the order field captured through low-level means, or "original means" are detected because of their inherent "existential" representation, and any functional and military-purpose scanning can see Are they all huge shadows? !

"It's unimaginable."

"An attempt should be made to make contact, partially unlock the clear code used for external communication of civilization, and within ten years after the lifting, begin to broadcast wide-scale content into the void."

"Did you see it? It seems that the civilization that calls itself "Irika" intends to communicate with our fleet."

"I saw it, but I didn't see it either." An unfriendly voice came from the person on the other side of the network who took over.

"what do you mean?!"

"Seeing it means that I know about it. Not seeing it means that I can't deal with it even if I see it. I'm so busy right now - ah, it's useless if I don't see it. Who knows there's already a backlog in the empire's network How many things have been stolen, at least I have stopped moving the fleet. If you want to solve it, please hire someone else."

"I can't go to the front line right now. If the empire's souls continue to decrease, Vidoville will be crazy. Forget it, there's nothing I can do about it."

"Zhai Cahir? Or Ikarim? Torres? Anyone can help me sort out the story. The story compiled by Void Sky Survey Radar is half-assed. I can no longer tell what is what and what is. Irika, I don’t even know who corresponds to whom!”

"They are not here at the moment, but I can provide some ideas. Among them, the story with the clue of rapid development in a short period of time describes a civilization that has not yet been named. We still don't know what they call themselves. , it is foreseeable that no one in the empire would have the thought to give that civilization a name.”

As for the messy content...the messy content constitutes a story describing the union of the Irika civilization. The Irika civilization is composed of many different races, and they should have fought many wars, so the story seems to be very messy. By the way, the information fluctuations emitted by the Irika civilization are very strange. These beings should have drifted all the way here from a very distant place and taken root. If you are interested in sorting it out, just follow my instructions."

"How did you know?"

"State of mind - different civilizations have different states of mind. I can feel these. You have forgotten that I was elected emperor by His Majesty Caloust because I recognized that the outer shell of the fault zone contains the desire to survive."

"and who are you?"

"I am Arcane Life IV, etc., have you noticed something?" Now, when asked who he is, Arcane Life IV seems to have finally noticed something is wrong.

"What are you paying attention to?" Unfriendliness and impatience came along the communication link again.

"Have you noticed that many of our conversations and many of the things we have experienced have no personal pronouns attached? We don't even know who we are talking to!" Arcane Life IV suddenly exclaimed, "Think about it, the empire now only has How many souls? Twenty or thirty? Every soul is a key point and a unique existence in the empire, but we, who hold the empire’s technology, don’t even know who we are talking to!”

"……What?!"

"Also, have you noticed that many of the things we said actually have no personal characteristics that can be displayed? It means that anyone can say these things. No matter who said it, the story can be rounded out in the future. We even There are no personal pronouns, and we don’t know who each other is. We can only talk like this, just like blank shells!!”

"When did this start to happen!?"

"Wait a minute, there's something new!"

"what happened again?"

"There are emotional fluctuations of being attacked - no, our fleet is at war with that fleet that has experienced rapid development of civilization!!"
