Star Empire

"Calculate the time. The new expedition is about to start, right? My sense of time is really a bit misaligned, which is not good." Vidoville knocked on his head.

On the one hand, observers turn their attention to the world that has not yet been touched by extraordinary forces.

On the one hand, the expedition team will also sail away.

The slightly lighter golden appearance, the slender and smooth hull, which is as linear as an elongated seed, the light flybridge connecting the bow and the central expansion of the hull, the crystal clear crystal array... these features describe this battleship. Identity: Truth-class conventional mothership. This appearance, along with many of its "siblings", has existed since the empire's military armed forces first entered the supernatural realm, and it still exists now - but it is only the appearance.

In the field it is in and the scenes it needs to face, appearance can no longer determine any factor. And its inner nature has been constantly changing over the long history, with the same ups and downs as the experience of the empire itself.

Behind it, the regular and solid huge Gnar array is moving away. However, what is a bit strange is that the huge Gnar array can accommodate more than one ship like this. It may be able to accommodate hundreds of such ships, but... there is no ship hull in the other "hatches" In the shadow, only the flickering light group lurks in it, as if it is breathing. Further back in the huge "cuboid" array, a bright golden star is spitting out golden flames.

A point of light left the galaxy.

Several points of light flew away from the constellation.

Hundreds of fireflies have synchronized rhythms with each other.

The radial diffusion cantilever seems to be topped with a halo of halo of holy light.

The soul of the galaxy begins to emerge.

More light groups converged on each other, and their combination process seemed slow, but in the end, they merged together in an orderly manner.

Under the brilliant wings, the soft silk threads show the softest vastness.

The huge mesh that stretches the fabric of the world's reality has streamers of light spreading along the grid, like impulses being conducted in a neural network.

In the void, the borders of the empire are like curved coasts in an abstract realm, with countless meandering streams of light traveling through the black ocean.

They left their station and slowly moved toward the predetermined "place" in the void.

"... There are indeed problems with large-scale joint operations. Several cases of unclear organization and chaotic ordering have been recorded."

"Pre-plan projects are being advanced, recovery calculations are being carried out, and actual coordination has begun..."

"There is confusion in communication, detailed analysis - the communication level frequency modulation is inconsistent; detailed analysis - the meaning code of the micro information table is not fully covariant; detailed analysis - the joint part is not perfect; detailed analysis, there are differences between the command and soldier levels Differences, some slightly below current recommended requirements…”

"The problem has been exposed, we have begun to solve the problem, and relevant possibilities and solutions have been included in the unlimited anti-run plan for consideration and modification..."

…

"The corresponding interval has been demarcated, and an order field that meets the needs is created within the relevant interval. For the order field, you can refer to the corresponding standards and the conversion coefficients of the standards applied to different environments... The problem is solved in this way, and we will deal with it in this spirit in the future. Just deal with the problem in this way."

"In addition, the optimization of algorithms and the overall research on the atmosphere of existence attributes also need to continue. Optimization is an eternal theme..."

"Make sure that radiation will not affect the connection and resonance between the worlds. After processing the waste materials and degraded products, they will be exiled directly to the void."

"The problem has been dealt with...there are no serious disturbances, Your Majesty Victorville."

"Okay, then, the next topic -" Vidoville switched the frequency. Soon, another "figure" appeared in his consciousness.

"Your Majesty, the main part of the observation plan has ended. According to the preset scale, most of the target worlds have returned to the normal pace of change after the withdrawal disturbance. Within one year, more than 99.99999% of the target worlds have spontaneously entered the end of the world. . And for the rest, other expected situations occurred."

"Information activation, extraordinary disturbance...are there any small probability phenomena that occur spontaneously?" Vidoville asked.

"There are pseudo-Poincaré regression phenomena, we use this name to call those phenomena - in the remaining worlds, we observe the world to have "reincarnation" in a relatively spontaneous way, from the meaning of creation to the meaning of the end of the world. ‘Reincarnation.’ Therefore, these worlds have survived beyond ‘a year’ on our largest scale.”

"Quasi-Poincaré regression... the phenomenon with this meaning has indeed been simulated and calculated in theory before and was speculated to be possible. However, due to various reasons, we have not conducted long-term and detailed observations before, and there is not much data that may exist. There were fragments and unclear statements...Now that they have been confirmed, this is a very good thing. Pay attention to the exchange and preservation of this information."

Vidoville nodded, "This word... was once used to describe a type of phenomenon in which particles return... After a long period of time, any type of particle will have a tendency to approach its original initial position infinitely. , and this trend shows in a sense that everything in the universe will have the ability to reincarnate. In the past, it was believed that although this time span is very huge, it will inevitably come true."

"...In the past, the [Cosmic Reincarnation] model of the end of the universe established by Poincaré's return has been competing with the Big Tear and Heat Death hypotheses for the final doomsday model... Ah, that was a long time ago, we are like this People may have memories. If you want more detailed and accurate content, you may need to go online or apply to the History Department. Now that I think about it...it seems that at that time, because the boundaries of the universe were constantly changing, several types of No theory can completely refute other parties..."

"His Majesty?"

"Ah, maybe I said a little too much." Vidoville stopped the current topic and said, "Let's talk about the details of what you discovered."

"Yes, due to the nature of the universe itself, this new reincarnation phenomenon partly carries the particle-like results of the past, but it also partly contains chaos and ambiguity. We have observed several possible causes of the world in the confirmed projects. Possible reasons for the occurrence of this kind of reincarnation: first, the world barriers in some worlds have relatively stronger passability, and they will allow more information to pass through the world barriers."

"In this case, the world may lose information faster and enter a doomsday state. However, if the conditions are right and the void erodes the world at an extremely slow speed, there will be just the right information structure similar to our reactor. , the decay of the void may be the original power of creation, and the power of creation on a sufficient scale will give the world a chance to be lit up again."

"This can also be seen as...the creation-apocalypse versus destruction balance that naturally operates in a normal environment." Vidoville confirmed.

"Yes, and the second possibility is similar to this - when some worlds were first created, the amount of actual information that the creation power these worlds drew from the void could form was greater than the internal structure of the world. Sometimes they Can be mixed in somewhere between the universe and the world barrier. Occasionally, when these "energy sources" fall into chaos within the world, the world can use this to "ignite" the internal structure. But they... they are very important to the existence within the world. It may not necessarily be a "good thing."

"The third possibility is relatively rare - before the end of many worlds, their interiors will gradually approach chaos and tranquility, because the parts that can trigger variables will drain from the world barrier into the void over time."

"This is a relatively "universal law." But there are occasional exceptions - just like ripples suddenly appear in a dead and peaceful ocean, and the ripples continue to grow stronger, this kind of phenomenon occasionally occurs inside the world. Spontaneous re-perturbation phenomenon, if the disturbance is strong enough, everything in the world may be reactivated."

"The smaller probability also includes the possibility of iterative nesting, that is, such a small probability event may be repeated, then... if such a "quasi-Poincaré regression" occurs, the world may directly live forever. of."

"After such a "pseudo-Poincaré return"... it will take a long time, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. What is certain is that the length of time required for a pseudo-Poincaré return based on the level we have determined is very large in absolute terms. At the same time, they also have an absolutely huge relative gap - a short span, Using our traditional units, it is around tens of trillions of years, and the long span may be more than 10^100 years. The most extreme report has been suspended by us. Its duration is too huge and may even make our current The mental protection measures failed, and - we observed signs of aging and decay on the volunteers' bodies..."

“Please tell me directly, what is the time span recorded by the most extreme reports?”

"The span of possibilities is huge - measured in years in that world, it's as long as 10^ (10^ (10^135)) years."

"So long?!" Hearing that such a huge magnitude, which was only theoretical in the past, actually affects the empire, even if it is only a trivial part within the empire, Vidoville is also surprised - this time, the surprise is not just on the surface. Aware.

"Yes, Your Majesty. I have to say... what was born in Genesis should probably be called a seed. The crops grown from these seeds may be similar in most cases. But... the seeds may contain something Sex determines the limits of what can be grown from seed far more than that.

At the same time...under the catalysis of different conditions, the crops these seeds will eventually grow into will vary greatly. "

"Due to the need for observation, the observer's perspective is synchronized with the baseline change speed of the universe. This requirement is now too stringent and too difficult to achieve. At the same time, it is difficult for measures such as somatosensory protection to maintain sufficient effectiveness under such circumstances... "

"... Got it, you can leave." After a long silence, an unspoken consensus emerged in the two people's consciousness.

"Even if we are structurally not afraid of the flow of time, and we can resist the fragmentation of time in the battlefields of facing the death tide and Σ, it is difficult for us to face the most normal flow of time. Even if we grab it from the void We need the rules and arm ourselves with them, but we are still afraid of sheer and absolute numbers..."

Vidoville was lost in thought.

"The history of Σ civilization...their [own statement] is five trillion axis years..."

"In the pulsations of these five trillion spindles, under these information segments with close meanings and meanings... How many possibilities are there that we can't even imagine without seeing them? Among them, we dare to think How many there are, and how many dare to do it..."

…

As the empire "dispersed", there were more and more things to deal with and face. When I'm busy, everything seems to go faster.

"Projects" and "tasks" began to spread out again - in countless worlds, there are many pairs of research teams who are re-studying the creation of the existential space channel reactor at the imaginary end, studying its structure, studying the "existential imaginary number", and studying this all algorithms in it. This extraordinary information extraction structure that is said to come directly from Σ vehicles has experienced the test of time and space. Until now, they can still have their own unrivaled position among the numerous technological towers. Its nature - or That is to say, the properties of entities that were once given the name of [existential attribute imaginary number] still run through many fields today, and they are of sufficient value to be studied...

A large number of computing processing arrays have been established, and their huge computing power will be used to "expand" the world. A large amount of crystal energy is input into the vast energy pool connected to these giant devices, and they will be used as materials to be fully expanded and used to build additional space-time structures in the world.

While these experiments were going on, inside the world barrier, the original world boundary and the world circuit, in the huge mathematical rate interaction space where the "heart of the world" was located, and in their vicinity, the focus of the crystal broadcast array... ...A large number of monitoring devices are anchored, and they monitor all changes at all times, monitor the secret but tangible connections between the inside and outside, and monitor the uncertain causal relationship between the two parties.

Some worlds have been transformed into special anchorages. The stars are called by the world circuit primordial constellation. They are arranged layer by layer to form a strong protective network. Under the "full view" of numerous protective structures and security measures, many ships were moored into that special anchorage.

What awaits them is detailed study and even disassembly. They will be used as important masters to restore standard and accurate drawings. There is a current situation that must be acknowledged - many ships are now difficult to build, and a large number of existing ships have problems of one kind or another... This issue needs to be taken seriously. Due to the large number of development models of various types of ships and their varying preservation conditions, a set of standard drawings may require dozens or even hundreds of ships to be restored. Times are different, standards and requirements are different, and technology is also different...

Let the many research departments and design institutes of the empire have to deal with the headache...Although the ailing ships can also be used, the fact that they can be used now does not mean that this situation is normal, and it is not about "who is worse" reason.

Some people are thinking about what content the observers bring that can be transformed or even used by the empire. By now, beings at the current level have indeed transcended a large number of limitations from the ordinary world, but they are far from transcending everything.

The problems of the past may no longer be problems, but this does not mean that life does not have needs, and it does not mean that life will not encounter problems from a higher level. What should be affirmed is that although the areas faced by life at different stages and the content that needs to be dealt with are different, and the differences between them are far beyond the abyss, there are some simple principles that may not change.

…

There is no doubt that the Empire is changing again, and it needs new changes.

Civilization has encountered many shocks and experienced many drastic changes.

Every time, powerful technology and/or rich and deep resources/basic base can ensure the empire's survival, but just "survival" cannot be said to be completely healthy.

Each time it settled down, the empire tried to rebuild everything behind technology and resources. But... change often comes faster than the system is established.

Every time, technology and resources seem to gain the upper hand, squeeze out more of the factors necessary for the survival of civilization and occupy more weight, and further obliterate the basic structures and details that should exist...

Until now, technology and resources have piled up into giant pillars, and apart from the solitary pillars, everything else - such as culture, compared to technology, may be like nascent buds compared to those that have been broken but are still Towering tree trunks.

"If we want to completely change all this, we can only take our time..."
