Star Empire

…

"Yes, there is still a long way to go, but Victorville, I need to tell you here that I do not allow, and I do not want you to get too involved in the current development process of the empire, especially the various technical branches and details."

Weisrifan said seriously, "Essentially, we no longer belong to the entire existing system, and we are too advanced compared to the empire... No, it should be said that compared to the current empire, We have so many differences.”

"Our views, our perceptions may not always apply to the current environment of the empire... Our views may not necessarily be correct, or... suitable for the current moment."

".I don't deny this. It's true. In the last era, I used too many of my own conjectures and ideas to influence the development process of the entire empire, but..."

"It's useful, of course it's useful. I don't want to deny the efforts of you and everyone else and the progress of the entire empire. Without this huge accumulation of foundation and technological breakthroughs, we would not be able to gain a foothold in the void, and we would not be able to gain a foothold in the void from that continent. Breakthrough in the Shadow of Possibility”

"These Σ technologies have given us strength, and the powerful breakthroughs we have continuously made have given us a chance to survive. Only in this way, in a relatively relaxed environment, can we have the opportunity to live stably at our own pace. But after all, that is already This is a problem we had to face in the last era. Now the content we have to face and the environment in the void have become different, and we should find our own way."

"I know, it is too idealistic for me to say this and think this way now. It is undeniable that the unknowns and dangers in the void have not disappeared because of the collapse of that continent. The threat of death tide still exists, and we still need to face a lot of unknowns . It is indeed necessary to face many difficulties to make such a change." Weisrifan looked at Vidoville, "But at least we need to make some decisions and make some changes. If we refuse to make them forever because of temporary fear, If we change, we will only fall into fear and confusion in the same way countless times.”

".I understand that I have not forgotten those experiences and memories. Now is a good opportunity. No matter how much worry and entanglement there will be after making those decisions, now is the time to make some decisions. After all, this empire is not for the two of us. Personal - ha, this is not bad, after all, the operating mode is arranged and adjusted according to actual needs, and now the entire empire only has an "empire" in its name."

"After all, the purpose of civilization is to unite as one super-individual. To build this true super-individual requires everyone's joint participation rather than one or a few people always commanding the overall situation. This purpose was set in a meeting a long time ago, but it has been repeated countless times. was broken. At least now, it is indeed time to persevere." After a moment of silence, Vidoville added.

"Yeah, it's not too late." Weisrifan nodded, "Speaking of which, the expedition plan has been put on the agenda of the entire empire as a high-priority part of the command hierarchy."

"Indeed, most of the calculation resources in the entire empire are currently dealing with these matters. I can feel that everyone is very active, but the time of the first expedition is still to be determined." Vidoville nodded.

"The industrial production line that can be used as a starting point for ship manufacturing still needs to be debugged. It is currently difficult to control time for an entire world."

"The fleet itself still needs to undergo quite a lot of testing, and during the expedition, the observer plan also needs to be implemented - we now have a lot of thoughts and assumptions about how to face other possible civilizations in the void, but they ultimately need to be Practice. In addition, I am afraid that the current void is too empty, and I am afraid that if I leave too early, I will not gain any valuable content."

"The first few times, are you prepared to step in?"

"Well, but I wasn't going to command them directly the first few times. After telling them my thoughts, I was only going to follow the expedition fleet from a distance and help them avoid unnecessary heavy casualties when absolutely necessary. First of all, I was going to follow the expedition fleet from a distance. Let them get used to it, and then it’s up to them to do it on their own.”

"Even if there are very serious casualties and the possibility of major mistakes?"

"Even if there are very serious casualties and the possibility of major mistakes."

…

"As for the structure of the future expedition fleet, I think it should be divided into multiple batches and formed into independent fleet matrices with a multi-level and multi-depth structure, and the communication between the matrices should not be too strong. In this way, we can take counter-trigger Mode, which binds beacons between different fleet matrices with existence. Once the beacon is in trouble, the fleet can."

"But in doing so, your team ignored another possible macroscopic situation - the possible loss of control due to shielding. According to the information and data we have accumulated, the phenomenon of death waves in the void is diverse. They can appear inside the world in the form of two-dimensional doors, and when out of control, they can dismantle the world and form the end of the world, or they may completely corrupt the entire world and turn it into a death tide aggregate!"

"On this basis, dead tide aggregates may also converge and split with each other. In extreme cases, the scale of the fault zone is likely to have no clear upper limit! If the expedition fleet splits multiple times, it will be dismantled into multiple structure, then once it encounters high-intensity dead wave pollution, the anti-trigger structure itself may be destroyed by the pollution!"

"It is undeniable that the fully combined fleet itself is safer and more powerful, but it will also have similar problems."

"Based on some phenomena and possible development paths, the direct reason why the information structure within the world may harm the battleship is determined - there is some possibility of "ascension" and "crowding" among the information classes. Information from lower levels may rise upward due to some reasons. Or due to the superposition of attributes. For this reason, they may interfere with warships built and driven based on crystal energy and crystal energy materials.”

"The feasibility and credibility of this statement are low - the possibility of low-level interference with high-level interference in this way is very low."

"is that so?"

"Indeed, according to the data from our observation records, we believe that the reason why low-level information can interfere with high-level information comes from the moment they are born. After the creation of the Big Bang, everything cooled down, but they themselves still came from The violent explosion after the Creation Flash. This means that they have the same origin and also have attributes related to the entire world."

"At present, it seems that the level of crystal energy is almost the same as the level after the integration of the entire world. This means that the influence of information from lower levels will also affect higher levels, but it is just a matter of degree and conversion."

"But this will directly affect the entire rank system, or we, and all our predecessors, have not sorted out all these contents clearly - the rank is derived from mathematics and logic, rather than an actual Power or coverage system, but we will always think that the dominant level reflects the performance and level of power, and if these issues are viewed with a repressive attitude, then conflicts and fragmentation will be more obvious - the world was born from the brilliance of creation And the creation of the Big Bang, all the rules of time and space and everything in the world came from that Big Bang.”

"It doesn't matter how the space in the world moves, how confusing the rules, or how complex the environment is. They can only be considered to be a little bit of embers from the Big Bang of Creation. If extraordinary information such as crystal energy is considered to be equivalent to The level attributes generated after the entire world is superimposed, then the crystal energy cannot be affected by the existence of any subset within the world."

"Just like the world was born from the Big Bang, any fluctuations and chaos smaller than the Big Bang cannot destroy the world itself - and space strikes, gravitational strikes, kinetic energy and thermal energy are all conventional physical aspects. Attacks are also unlikely to affect the Big Bang. Not only are they always smaller than the Big Bang, but their manifestations, activity, and complexity are themselves far less than the Big Bang itself..."

"At present, it seems that the consumption of the crystal energy shield may be related to the calculation function that controls it. There are many possibilities for the control of crystal energy by calculation resources - controlling the crystal energy to directionally devour and assimilate external information disturbances, or control the crystal energy Its omnidirectional engulfment and assimilation ability makes it directional, which may be the reason why crystal energy creations cannot be directly "invincible" within the universe."

"There is no doubt that sophisticated control methods and huge total volume can infinitely reduce the disturbance of the inactive information in the world to the VHF extraordinary information protective layer..."

…

There are many worlds left in the Empire - they still retain some of the reinforced structures left over from the old days, but much of the equipment within them has ceased to function and may even be outright useless. They can no longer shine as a node in the void as they once did, but for now, this countless world that originally had no life and no hesitation about control can now be said to be perfect. "testing ground".

"This feels a bit familiar. We seem to have done a lot of experiments before..."

"Indeed, but that was a long, long time ago."

"We are currently conducting further research on the possible information attribute hierarchy, but it is currently believed that some of the content may not be measured with precise logic. We need to use fuzzy and rough inference methods to confirm the overall general principles of the problem, and then detail the problem itself. Splitting and analysis of

"Fuzzy logic itself is ridiculous to a certain extent - using 1.5 devices to create 1.13 lives, after these 1.13 lives suffered 5.93 fatal attacks, the life The death itself is nine point two...The essence of the so-called fuzzy logic and fuzzy correlation is to condone the existence of countless such incidents!"

Within the emerging network, the information flow that was originally mixed and uniform like a large whirlpool began to condense into directionality and convergence, perhaps just like a galaxy condensed into solid planets and cantilever structures from chaos. They noticed some issues that needed high attention and devoted more time and energy to them.

The scale and volume of disagreements and arguments began to increase.

"...but it is undeniable that they exist, and even so, they are self-covariant to a considerable extent. Part of the world changes the partial information rules corresponding to the world constants, which will directly cause a large gap between the entire mapping management layer and the actual application layer. Collapse, but there are also a considerable number of worlds that will take time to rebalance even if their constants are arbitrarily changed. In the end, perhaps the stability of the world will decrease significantly, and perhaps the order structure in the new world will be very different from before, but the new rules of the universe Still established, they also tend to covary with their predecessors after accounting for parameter changes."

"...It is difficult to accept such a possibility, which means that our world and the rules themselves are full of variables and uncertainties. It can even be said...that they are full of loopholes."

"According to the main ladder, the void can be divided into two or three ladders - all possibilities and everything in the world are the bottom ladder, and the world itself and all extraordinary information, pan-concepts, strong laws, etc." "General" rules all belong to the upper level. The void itself cannot be accurately defined, so it is difficult to determine the true situation of the void level. They may be theoretical, or they may also be customary..."

"And if they are further divided into details, they can be divided into eight to nine attribute levels. According to the phenomenon of civilization relics called Σ, information with the same attribute level can merge and collide with each other or Annihilation and other phenomena, it seems prima facie that covariation gaps and scale magnitudes may determine the difference between the final forms of action."

"Because attributes represent the same level, they also have the same or similar parts. Even if they are only symbolic or similar in our understanding, they are not absolutely separated and incommutable systems. This determines the difference. Civilizations can interact with each other even using different operating modes and extraordinary information, which may have very important reference value."

"But this also determines that there is a possibility that different operating systems cannot understand each other. At present, we have sorted out dozens, maybe even more, of the overall development tone from the data of our predecessors. and development paths, they may sooner or later become difficult to covariate as the level of development becomes unimaginably high, or technical barriers may form between them, making them unable to convert and act together – this may be dangerous!”

"We should consider building bridges for technological exchanges between different levels and levels. They build bridges based on different base points and provide communication channels for information and technology at different levels of technology. These channels should be based on different levels and echelons of technology. Set up enough to avoid cognitive barriers between technologies as much as possible. The operation and effectiveness mechanisms of extraordinary information are different from each other, so different basic decision-making technologies may not be directly mixed and converted, but the thinking and theoretical needs should be established... "

"The Void Sky Survey Radar Narrative Network has discovered new fluctuations - a new Genesis reaction has appeared in the void. At present, it seems that within 10 million individual sensory civilization cycles/information evolution years, there will be enough exploration and thinking in the surrounding void value."

"Regarding the probability of creation in the void, it is currently necessary to question whether the main body of creation comes from "void" or from "order" - the biggest problem at present comes from the fact that void itself is unmeasurable and untestable. If all the observation standards in the past are different from If all the logical details are established, then any understanding and definition of void is wrong. The correct part is that we can have more opportunities and possibilities to "understand" our environment and use and think about the entire environment as a whole to achieve success. progress……"

"We do not think that it is correct to understand the void in an overly mystical way. The void itself may not be measurable because of its properties that may be zero, because for the void, all our technologies can be regarded as positive, so The void is actually outside the overall reference system that we can measure and calibrate, and it is not rare that it is outside the reference system and causes infinite explanations or inaccessibility."

"But we must also consider practical issues - we have available imaginary number technology, and after the double conjugation of these "imaginary numbers", they themselves present existing attributes that are not allowed by the current order environment. Therefore, they will be formed in the future In an instant, they were completely exiled outside the infinitely distant order. At the same time, civilization's once powerful enemy Σ also left behind some data fragments. Their technology is far more powerful than ours, and their history is also far longer than ours. Currently, we can It is speculated that their understanding of the void is far deeper than us and our predecessors, but they have never mentioned controlling the void."

". Among these, there are some issues that we must think about seriously - even based on the possible reincarnation of civilizations, Σ civilization is equivalent to the existence of more than five trillion white world world creation-destruction cycles Cycle, for infinity, is also just an insignificant time that is infinitely close to zero. The so-called infinity and eternity can only be learned from the so-called order life. Infinity is an unreachable It is a process rather than any definite result.”

"What is your group going to say? What is your point of view?"

"We are still thinking about the problem from a rather limited perspective. We have never considered the true meaning of ancient data such as infinite void and supremeness. We have also rarely considered the real possibility of infinite spread - infinity is not a certain certainty. Very large values, not to mention "they look very large, we can't control them, we think it's difficult to imagine them, so they can be called infinitely large", this is an absurd and narrow view."

"."

"."

"This issue requires further thinking, or not thinking about it for the time being. It is too profound."

"We must also understand and think as comprehensively as possible about our attitude towards other possible civilizations..."

"But the Observer Project has a high priority in this regard. The Observer Project is not a plan to absorb the lower-level troops. Its existence does not allow us to get too involved in the survival and life of other civilizations. More often, we just watch..."

"How should we observe it?"

"There are only some precautions and plans, but there are not many in-depth reference examples..."

…

There are too many discussions like this throughout the empire. Countless puppets and new lives are woven into various groups or groups. They exchange knowledge with each other in their own way, exploring the extremely large but extremely fragmented knowledge structure system left over from the former empire. and reality.

At the beginning, there will be many problems, and even when solving the problem, there will be countless problems on the way to solve the problem, and every problem and error on the care branch will cause many new problems. …

Different weights of knowledge and understanding between research groups may lead to the amplification of the same viewpoints and differences that should not be taken into account, thereby causing a large waste of resources; the self-rules formed spontaneously between the research groups are not coordinated with each other, thus causing a large waste of resources; research The pilots of the group are not coordinated with each other, and the pilots themselves may not necessarily have the value expected in theory; the pilots themselves may also cause a considerable waste of resources, and so on.

According to the records and observations of high-level officials in the empire such as Victorville, this is just the tip of the iceberg of problems that may be revealed by the "micro-element" level existence of perceptible units.

There are already so many problems in the interaction between micro-elements that will occur even within the scope of unit rationalization, not to mention the various collectives composed of countless micro-elements and rising up. It even spans countless imperial areas and the entire empire that are as boundless as stars.

"I thought of a word." Feeling the increasingly active and complex network of existential nodes in the entire empire, Weisruifan sighed, "A hundred schools of thought contend."

"Indeed, this is very rare, and the entire empire has not taken a good look at itself for a long time. However, if this continues, there will be problems in itself. Some reports have begun to show a fixed direction - they are preparing to jointly report to the decision-making level to formulate some Standards have been unified, and many of the highest-priority items have been given out... very quickly.”

"In fact, this is normal. Rationality is not an ideal attitude. The more rational part should be reflected in making appropriate adjustments and changes when facing the environment. This will be more conducive to recognizing shortcomings and deficiencies and making up for them."

Weisrifan nodded, "The information contained in many of the data streams revolves around some parts that are rational and well-intentioned. This is indeed normal. To put it simply, for the sake of the empire and everyone, for everything There are too many good ways, and the extreme laziness and extreme radical parts are not excluded. It is necessary to make restrictions in this initial period, and these restrictions may be directly integrated into the soul and basic worldview in the future—— We can’t have no limits.”

"I just don't know whether such laws and rules will be as simple as three chapters of the law, or as ideal as in the First Empire Era, or as infinitely integrated and iterative as at the end of the Federation. The details and descriptions corresponding to different intervals are different. , itself is a pyramid that can diverge..."

"Not necessarily. Now we can already use the real imaginary existence and theoretical anti-existence to a certain extent with the help of the containment of the void, so maybe the future imperial legal system will be Mandelbrot Zoom."

"Hiss—" Thinking of the weird fractal that was drawn casually and was much larger than the universe, Vidoville folded his arms and took a breath of solar wind.

"There is no air here." Vesrifan rolled his eyes at Vidoville: "Now all this is in line with our ideal state. At least now that the weight effect is not strong, there is no other more serious situation in the entire empire. The severe and twisted collapse and depravity has not completely failed due to the huge faults and collapses in the past. On the contrary, the entire empire is rapidly recovering its vitality. And on this basis, it can further operate and progress, which in itself is worth incomparable So happy."

"...Speaking of which, preparations for the first expedition fleet should have already begun. It is estimated that this will cause new debates in many aspects - when following them, remind them in advance that those worlds were created by the void itself. In those worlds There is no reinforced star network, no stabilizing anchors, and no extraordinary radiation."

"Tell them to suppress their power, not to attack at will, not to sink into the world at will, and it is best not to watch too much. After all, we have learned enough of these lessons when writing the "Three Books", and we have been able to pay attention to them. The lessons learned are worth anticipating, and the empire should not make mistakes on the same issues again and again."

"Indeed."

Above the blazing sun, the sky was dark and clear. In it, a pair of black wings flashed across without leaving many traces.

"...After all, it is a new beginning. There is still a lot of mess to sort out, and there is also a lot to do."
