Chapter 891: Curiosity Kills Cats
The messenger organism returns from the star system, and at the same time brings the environmental information of the star system to the supergiant mass organism.
"This is the 3.26 million star system, there is a civilization inside, and we can leave."
Civilization's star systems are incapable of exploiting material resources, a policy of concealment that the successors had in place before they entered the river system.
Therefore, after recovering the messenger creatures, supergiant mass creatures immediately enter the speed of light and escape into the infinite void.
Information about the star system is imported into the star map and marked for later use.
But such statistics have made many problems that are not easy to notice become apparent.
"A total of more than one million star systems with traces of civilization have been discovered, and the density is a little abnormal, if it is an interstellar civilization colonized across star systems, it won't even have superluminal or sub-light technology?"
The successor to statistics speaks out about the problems it has been brewing for a long time.
Out of the three million star systems, there are more than a million star systems with traces of civilization, and it is clear that there are too many star systems with civilization.
However, this is not inexplicable, such as the existence of civilizations with territories across stars.
These star systems do not have star gates, and the civilizations within the star systems do not have sub-light or superluminal technology, otherwise the detection activities of messenger creatures will inevitably be hindered.
For better or worse, anomalies deserve the attention of their successors, and they do not want to see them, as that could affect the plans of the community as a whole.
The successors made all sorts of bold assumptions.
"Maybe it's something like a race, which can guarantee absolute loyalty, so even if the civilization as a whole extends the territory of more than a million stars, there will be no division, as long as it ensures that the civilization will not be divided, regardless of the cost of time, and the chemical propulsion can also be used to colonize across stars."
"Or maybe they used to master faster-than-light or sub-light-speed technology, but then for some reason the technology regressed, and now each star system is different."
There are many opinions, each with its own reason, which makes the curiosity of some successors skyrocket.
"I'd love to find out what's going on."
The discussion came to an abrupt end, and by the time the successor reacted, it had become a focal point for the eyes of the clan, and some individuals silently put their weapons online.
"Don't even think about it, if you dare to do this, I will be the first to kill you, because you will disrupt the overall plan of the race, which is no different from betrayal."
"Agreed."
The successor hurriedly explained that it didn't want to be slaughtered as a traitor by its fellow clansmen for this kind of thing, wouldn't that be too worthless to die?
"I'm just talking, I don't really plan to do it......"
"We're just talking!"
“……”
Then you put away your hostility and weapons!
……
An octahedral structure floating in the near-orbit of a star, with two quadrangular pyramids at the bottom together, made of gold.
The whole building is built of huge stones as bricks, the stepped slope is consistent with the pyramid, and each large brick is engraved with a lot of words, densely arranged neatly, adding a lot of mystery to the whole building.
The interior of the building is liquid water, and the stellar light shines through a refractor, illuminating the entire interior of the building.
And among them, the largest refractor, the stellar light it refracts straight into the very center of the building, on a throne in the center of a hall that is not much smaller than a skyscraper.
The huge golden throne is even more sacred and noble because of the sprinkling of light, and the twisted tentacles and octopus heads carved on the throne give people an eerie eerie eerie appearance, and the combination of sacred and gloomy is not in conflict and is just right, giving others a feeling that it should be so.
Under the golden throne, many intelligent beings with octopus heads reported to the king on the throne with great respect.
"The unknown stirs the void, spreads a strange rhythm of thunder, more and more worlds are found around the footprints left by the unknown, and every time we try to approach, the unknown disappears without a trace, it is too mysterious."
"O immortal King Joah, is this a precursor to some kind of calamity? Should we be preparing in advance? ”
On the throne, King Joah listened quietly to the reports of his courtiers, and his eyes fell to the side.
"Nkole, Enna, get out of line."
"At your disposal!"
With a faint voice coming from the king, among the octopus-headed people standing on both sides, one person walked out of each person, and it can be seen from the contrast of the difference in appearance that it is a man and a woman.
"Go, find out the source of the mutation, this king wants to know, what the unknown thing is, whether it is an enemy or a treasure."
"Follow your will!"
Leaving the hall, Nkole, who had been assigned a task by the king, was stopped by another person.
"Nkole, what do you have to do? The unknown is elusive, hidden in the infinite worlds, and I haven't figured out how to find it. Enna asked.
Nkolai shook the tentacles of the octopus's head and spread his palms to reveal a magnificent star map and mark the places where the unknown had appeared.
"Don't worry, although the whereabouts of unknown things are uncertain, they have their own laws."
"The world that has been disturbed by the unknown will not be disturbed by the unknown again, and there are constantly new worlds that are alarmed by the arrival of the unknown, which shows that the unknown will only go where it has never been."
"In the great world of God, there is still a part of the world that has not been visited by the unknown, and we are entrenched there and waiting, and we will inevitably wait for the arrival of the unknown."
The head of the analysis is Dao, in fact, before the report, Nkolai had already heard from other sources and figured out how to find the unknown.
"So you are wise as a king."
"Thanks for the compliment."
The two of them came to a stone platform and stood still, and then their bodies gradually weakened until they disappeared completely.
In a short time, they reached the faraway land where they were going.
Entering the realm is a wasteland, and beneath the stone platform are hundreds of millions of people, who are as small as ants carrying all kinds of things.
When the creatures saw the two emerge from the stone platform, they began to worship.
Out of etiquette, the two did not step down from the stone platform, but sat down in a special resting place, grabbing and eating the creatures that were still worshipping them without any burden.
Seeing their kind being devoured with a strange scream, those creatures not only panicked, but also had no desire to escape, but worshiped more fervently and devoutly.
After a while, there was a whistling sound in the distance, and the violent air flow set off when landing lifted those small creatures like ants to the back of their horses, and those who were close were even directly torn apart by the air blades formed by the high-speed movement of the air current.
The comer saluted them to Nkole.
"Welcome both."
"Lord of the World, have you ever found a strange Thunder Rhythm here?" Enna asked.
"Haven't found out."
The Lord of the World's reply relieved Nkolai that if the unknown had already been visited, they would need to rush somewhere else.
"That's good, the king has given us the task, and we will stay here for a while." Enclair Road.
The Lord of the World responded, and warmly invited them to rest in the palace he had built in this world.
After spending some time in the world, Nkole left the world and reached the outer void, where they hid and waited for the arrival of the unknown.
After waiting for almost a year, Nkole and the others finally got the mission goal they had been waiting for.
"It's that weird rhythm of thunder!"
"Catch up!"
Rushing out of their hiding place towards the source of the Thunder Rhythm, however, the messenger creature quickly noticed the two of them rapidly approaching them as they didn't reach the speed of light.
Messenger creatures need to scan the environment of the star system through electromagnetic waves, and the star system is very large, and it takes half an hour for electromagnetic waves to go back and forth.
It takes time to detect the environment of the star system, but that doesn't mean that the messenger creatures will stop where they are and let them capture them.
With a short-distance faster-than-light displacement, messenger creatures quickly run directly from one side of the star system to the other.
"Gone?!"
Nkolai was stunned, they had expected to be able to catch the messenger creature, but they had not thought that such an abrupt disappearance would occur.
"Is it a hiding technique?"
"No, I don't feel anything wrong, it's really gone."
"Wait, it's over there!"
Enna reminded her companion that she had chased her out first.
It's a pity that even if the two of them have been prepared for a long time and have stopped in advance, the home field is also theirs, which can be said to have taken advantage of the right time and place, but they lost in speed, and every time they were about to catch up, the messenger creature was a superlight speed, flying a kite for half an hour.
During this period, Nkolai wanted to split up and outflank both sides, but it was useless, how could the encirclement of only two people trap the messenger creature in all directions 360 degrees without dead ends?
Moreover, the only thing that can intercept messenger creatures faster than the speed of light is the distortion of space-time, and the interception of materiality is simply looking for death.
When the messenger creatures had thoroughly collected information about the environment of the star system, Nkole and the others could no longer find any trace of the messenger creatures, which made them grit their teeth with hatred.
"What's next?"
"Look around, outside the realm, there will inevitably be something unknown." Nkole Road.
"Hmm!"
Supergiant mass organisms at a distance of about three light days from the star system have successfully recovered messenger organisms.
"Pursued by an alien civilization?"
The successors were surprised, knowing that although there had been a pursuit before, it was not possible to do so, and the messenger creatures did not need to do any maneuvering to leave before the other party arrived, and this time it was obvious that they had prepared in advance.
"I didn't exceed the speed of light, but I was able to catch up so close, it seems that I came early and prepared."
"It's strange, obviously it can't move faster than the speed of light, why can it achieve faster than the speed of light in information transmission? It stands to reason that they should have an information gap due to the speed of light barrier. ”
Some of the successors noticed that something was wrong, they were obviously faster than the speed of light, and it stands to reason that the star systems that had arrived before were not able to transmit information, and the speed of light barrier limited the transmission of information, so they should not be prepared in advance.
Unless the other party has mastered the means of transmitting information faster than the speed of light.
The speed of light limits the transmission of information, that is, as long as the speed of light limit of information transmission can be broken, whether it is to make matter faster than the speed of light or let information exceed the speed of light, the essence remains the same.
If it is only for some reason that civilization and technology regress, so it can only achieve the speed of information and not the speed of matter, this is easy to say, but the successors are afraid of a different ......
"What we knew before, could it be all the camouflage of this civilization? Have they been deliberately deceiving us? ”
"I don't rule it out."
"The level of hazard alert needs to be raised, and the cluster cannot be left in danger."
Supergiant-mass creatures interrupted their discussions, and guessing without any basis was pointless.
"No, it's too much of a rush, we need to figure out the situation first."
"There were exactly two captives delivered to the door."
The principle of action of the successor is not to contact, not to communicate, not to ignore, but ...... Dead creatures are nothing more than lifeless dead things, not among them.
