Star Empire

The expeditions and triumphs of the expeditionary warriors mark the flow of time. They are like the pulse generated when the empire delivers blood to the void, and like the clock in the void with the expedition road as its pointer.

Time passes as it always does, but that doesn’t mean things will continue to develop as they always have.

Disagreements and contradictions set in almost as quickly as it all began.

"Well...it's normal. In other words, you shouldn't have such unreasonable expectations in this regard. This is the true face of everything, the original appearance of the foundation of the empire after decapsulation and abstract simplification."

“We need to convene the highest decision-makers in all regions and pay attention to relevant parties. We need to consider consultation and adjustments from our perspective..."

"Determine the contact individual, determine the meeting authority level, determine the confidentiality level...the contact is completed."

In the empire's existence attribute network, in a hidden area, a small wall was built. Before it closed, twenty individual beings projected part of their consciousness into that small space that seemed void compared to the actual environment.

"It is certain that we are within the scope of "Conclusion." Whether it is our own position, the way we act, or our experience...the events that require our own processing are closure, our own operation relative to the Empire ...is "single". What we need is to clarify the plan and clarify the interests. We don't need to over-guess, and we don't need to over-guess others - unless there are major changes in the reality at that time that we, or "They" had to choose that approach at that time."

"Already in place."

"We should pay attention and pay attention to the changes in information within the empire."

"As you can see, as the lower and basic levels of the empire further unfold, more events will be revealed before our eyes."

"[We] can know that for a long time, [you] all have a far clearer understanding of this aspect than [us]." Among the projections of the rulers of the sky region, two relatively more special individuals are still Quite identifiable.

"After unfolding, and based on speculation based on the direction of the story and reality, we can determine that the most affected area is from the base level to the middle and upper levels of the empire."

Between Vesrifan's words, two dividing lines appeared in the "pyramid" of the empire's authority. At first glance, they appear to be vaguely cut off in many parts. However, if you look closely, you can still find some details - the upward line actually accurately divides many permission levels that even have scores.

"The next words... are left to you."

"Within this scope, the degree of contradiction and conflict intensification is the greatest, the experience required is the greatest, and the problems that may arise are also the greatest... In short, this area needs to deal with changes the most..."

"...It is necessary to constantly grasp the key points, and it is necessary to constantly resolve the main contradictions. In order to achieve these goals, some means need to be put into use, some structures need to be established... They are impossible to avoid."

"We, all of us here, we cannot be completely in sync with the foundation of the empire. Therefore, we should not read and see everything from our own perspective. We must fully consider the forces formed spontaneously by lower-level individuals and lower-level organizations. The rationality and degree to which management methods and management structures can be recognized.”

"If time and development can prove their superiority, their mapping structure can be extracted, a more accurate model can be established, and if necessary, try to implement it to an interval that meets the needs..."

"Stability and order are needed, but other factors are equally important and should not be ignored."

"We should retain our opinions and pay attention to our original intentions. The existing structure may have its reasonableness, but this does not mean that everything is reasonable as long as it exists. We need to conduct top-down analysis of deformed structures and Correction of damaged structures..."

“Antagonism must be considered—antagonism can come from many directions…”

"Techniques that are higher than the overall level should be used, such as through emergence induction, using "brush strokes" or implanting appropriate information particles/memes, etc., to directly guide the atmosphere to a greater extent and lead the development direction to a positive flow..."

"It's... too early. They have just begun to develop. Although there are development processes from other civilizations as reference, we should not directly project those examples directly into our system. We don't know how the empire will develop after the first stabilization. What kind of management structure will be formed at the middle and lower levels, and what kind of sub-systems will exist within it. We are also unable to accurately predict how, to what extent and scale the problems ultimately caused by disagreements and contradictions will be reflected. Which aspects or locations appear. Simulation calculations and full-truth deductions are not completely based on reality. They can be used as a reference, but if we actually encounter problems, we still need to face and solve specific problems..."

…

"End of the meeting."

"...Lil, what do you think? I mean...the plans discussed in the meeting and the actions prepared to be executed?"

"In this regard, I agree more - don't rush to do anything now. In other words, I agree with Isendel and Erwin. No matter what we do now, it is too early." Weisrifan replied , "Now... it's too early, so early that we don't know how the problem will appear, and it's so early that we don't even know if it is a problem at all. The cognitive process of virtual image-illusion-abnormality-illusion-truth-real image just began."

"...And, for us, what we can see clearly now is more of the macro trend, rather than the specific principles in the details and the changes they lead. Before the trend is formed, if we If you rashly project your subjective understanding without learning, it may be a good result to reduce the impact and efficiency... If it is serious, that part of the area may be directly tampered with by our power beyond recognition. And this is also true for us It’s just an intermediate link in the entire process—this knowledge will have to be tested by time and reality for how long it will take to prove its essence.”

"Indeed..." At this point, Vidoville seemed to feel a little depressed. "It's not just verification errors. In fact, it's hard to say whether we have understood them. Many of the sentences that have been enriched here by us are behind The knowledge and records that may be involved would require little storage facilities to stuff them in a way that satisfies the requirements."

"There are indeed difficulties, and they are very big difficulties. They may have been faced several times before, and they may have been overcome but had to be faced." Weisruifan did not lose her positivity, and she answered in a calm tone. Said: “Development is about constantly overcoming difficulties—hasn’t this been the case since ancient times?”

"That's true..."

…

Young, too young.

The Sixteenth and Eighteenth Heaven Districts have been integrated into the empire's development and operation track, but they are still putting most of their energy into specific and precise projects.

Involving the entire empire, involving a long history, involving projects involving the origin of development... Their experience and suggestions will be included in the scope of reference, but they... are currently not recommended to be deeply involved in any major independent projects or to establish major projects on their own. Independent project.

Perhaps...it is necessary to wait until these new regional structures accumulate enough information and introduce norms and regulations that can be recognized by the empire, before the status quo can be effectively changed.

…and we also need to ensure that these materials and these norms can withstand the test of a long enough time, a wide enough space, and a rich enough event.

In the previous two eras, the empire had countless technologies that had no time to verify, and there were many technologies that there was no way to verify.

At that time, facing countless of them, the sentient beings in the empire could only use Occam's razor and "inner comfort" to forcibly comfort or even anesthetize themselves, to force themselves not to be overwhelmed by the pervasive surroundings that they could not understand at all. something that drove him crazy. Countless technology towers rise from the ground, and they penetrate directly into the ceiling that is simply untouchable. A nascent race that has just been able to "spread its branches" in the void is actually capable of competing with the remains of the overlord...

Then everything became even more. The first time lasted only a million years, and the next time... lasted for more than 30 billion years.

The final result... doesn't seem bad, but it's not great either.

The "not bad" part is that the most dangerous and powerful ancestors and enemies in the void are now quite far away from the empire. In the short term, they no longer have the ability to interfere with the existence and development of the empire on a large scale. Based on the recovered data, it can be concluded that the former Σ did not have too many illusions about their direct survival. They did not try to directly "reincarnate" by supporting puppets. They will develop the required technology. and the environment gave the surrounding civilizations, and they left a series of orders to themselves. These orders turned the corrupted remains into giant hammers. The hammers fell from the void again and again, smashing a path on the civilizations struggling to survive. Another wound that cannot be healed.

Civilization is forced to move forward, and all trivial matters turn into nothingness in the process. Until all the dust settles...the giant hammer shatters with a bang, and the huge dent it leaves...this mark can reflect the power of the existence that created all this from the opposite side.

"Reverse inheritance". At least now it seems that no matter what I was worried about, it seems that it is all over now. As for whether those projects that once caused concern have happened or not, it seems not easy to give a direct conclusion. But at least, the empire can still inherit and survive according to some of its own memories and habits so far. Although there have been huge changes, everything has not been completely cut off.

The "bad" thing is...

In any case, one of the parties here is passive and has been forced to this point. Strength is indeed important, but this does not mean that such a factor can directly allow the empire to forgive everything.

Too many lives have passed away, and each time they pass away so fast, that everything may be over before the survivors can figure out what happened in reality.

I don’t know how long it will take for the past pain and everything I have done to be fully noticed by “myself”.

"besides……"

"never mind."

"Everything bad, everything in the past must be remembered. This is not over yet."

"But now, it's the beginning, the growth."

"Keep more upward content..."

"New things do have risks, but if you don't try and take risks, then progress will never come."

“Don’t be afraid of making mistakes.”

…

"There has been further progress in the analysis of current battleships..."

"We found that among the many warships currently in the empire, the designs are more "forward" and the design concepts are closer to the empire's simple understanding. The "fall disturbance" is smaller. For example, the "Star Initiation" and "Holy Judgment" two types The performance drop of the super flagship is very small, followed by "Saint Mang" and "Barrier", but the degree of drop is already very serious. As for the warships with later models... the drop phenomenon has caused a lot of damage to them."

"Currently... there have been preliminary speculations about this. This is caused by a combination of factors - for example, they were not forced into a system that we considered to be one-sided and fragmented in order to achieve the effect. And they were first created , may serve as a vortex and anchor point to intercept more existential attributes thrown out by Σ. These existential attributes that contain the concept of strength itself may be transformed, denatured and completely integrated into the system in the process. Therefore, When the extra pile of "story" is burned, these basic disks are not burned, they are not the same kind of "fuel"."

"However, these are still hypotheses... Since the event itself is difficult to trace, simulation tests need to be conducted based on the existing situation..."

"...This is the time that we sacrificed a huge amount of space in exchange for now, which allows us to walk the road again."

Vidoville finished reading the information obtained through another "hook".

"Hu3477, iu3677...conduct a status report on the construction of the empire's basic communication network."

"Your Majesty, all projects are progressing smoothly at present." On the other side of the consciousness connection, all objects responded almost instantly.

"All departments are building relay nodes and large-scale transceiver facilities throughout the country. These facilities themselves have the performance and redundancy to comply with the corresponding regulations of the unlimited anti-crowding plan. After combining past experience and cases from other civilizations, we have provided these facilities with We have prepared multiple emergency stop plans and restart plans under abnormal conditions. These plans...can take care of most high-intensity disasters."

"Confirm." Vidoville changed the object individuals on the other side of the connection, "Ikarim, Torres, Zhai Cahir, the task you led before, the "reading problem" of the world line repository and the existence attribute network "Architectural issues", how is your team progressing now?"

"Reading problems and architecture problems... I can only say that the former one is slightly easier to solve." Zhai Cahir's tired and not entirely "friendly" response came from the other side of the connection.

"World line storage library...new ones can modify the hardware, and old equipment...can only continue to add compensation and correction equipment and additional interfaces. The device itself supports multiple accesses at the same time. As for reading, as long as it can Just find a way to save the observation frequency bound to the content inside. This observation frequency is actually a keyword used to retrieve entries. It is not technically difficult, but the biggest problem is——"

Surrounded by the Guards Fleet, Zhai Cahir stared at the results obtained after many heavy security inspection measures. He felt that all the stars in the sky were falling towards him at this moment. He wanted to deal with the problem, but his hands... kept shaking.

Calmness melts away as quickly as ice crystals facing the sun.

"The data stream garbage accumulated for 30 billion years! The result of the continuous reshaping of existence properties for 30 billion years! Forced use without maintenance for 30 billion years! Forced use of external forces for 30 billion years What a foolhardy effort to maintain! The current empire’s existence attribute network is just such a thing!”

On the other side, the roar finally sounded after the silence.

"I - forget it, wait, this project can't be rushed."

"...It seems..." The communication was cut off, and Victorville thought about Zhai Cahir's roar, frowned and then relaxed.

"Finding the bottom" indeed revealed many problems.

Just like now, if problems such as accumulation and complexity in the network change and appear in other places, what consequences might it lead to?

"The tail can't be lost, but now... If we just talk about the true "new tail" since this era or around this time node... there are a large group of beings below watching where the tail is and how the tail should grow... …”

"It's still too early. Let's solve the existing problems first."

"As for the old tail, the ancient problem of sedimentation may still be an intricate part that is still waiting to be unearthed..."

Vidoville shuddered.

"I always feel like there is some unknown hostility somewhere..."
