Chapter 347: The Route of the Badites
Lao Guo glanced at the posts on the forum a few times, all kinds of debates and quarrels, and inexplicably felt a little bored.
He yawned and got up from his stool, "I don't know how long this will take, it's nothing to look at." Some people give him the enjoyment of five reincarnations, but it's not enough, really don't be too greedy...... If you're dead, you're dead, and I don't know what you can't think of. ”
"It's sometimes boring to live too long...... The same life, which has been repeated for 10,000 years and 100 million years, I don't know what it means. ”
Seeing that it was not too late, the two got up again and walked to the large conference room in Kunlun Mountain.
More than 1,500 people attended the meeting, including experts and scholars from all walks of life, and discussed many issues.
The first issue is the discussion of virtual world technology, which has now been revealed, including the announcement of the Transcendent Project, and how to use it more effectively has become the biggest problem.
The military wants to use virtual world technology to train soldiers; Engineers want to use it to do some simulations; Artists have come up with all sorts of crazy ideas and want to dive into them and create worlds! There are also various tourism, gastronomy, people and nature, education, and more. When it comes to this kind of novel technology, people always seem excited, and all kinds of messy proposals are piled up.
After all, it can change every aspect of human life!
In the end, Zhang Yuan coughed heavily, "Everyone, everyone, please be quiet and listen to me first." ”
After all, Zhang Yuan was an old captain, and he was still very prestigious, and suddenly, everyone quieted down.
"When it comes to virtual world technology, we're definitely going to take advantage of it. First, let me explain some of the specific principles. ”
"The virtual worlds 1-11 are all experimental in nature, not very stable, and can easily collapse. Once it collapses, the life inside will die, so we don't think about the specific application. The main applications are in the world of 12, 13, 14. ”
"The virtual world of No. 12 is a world of weak rules, which is usually quite stable, what are weak rules? That is to say - in the real world, with a click of the computer mouse, there is a Kunlun Mountain in the virtual world, so it is quite good to use it for military exercises. However, because there is a back door in World 12, there is still the possibility of collapse or even tampering, so if humans enter, they must be strictly monitored, otherwise there is likely to be a security problem. ”
"The world of 13 is a world of strong rules. You may be asking, what is a strong rule? In other words, even if the real world is operated by a computer, there is no way to interfere with the internal operation of World 13...... You see, there is no back door in this world, and the most we can do is send people inside, or forcibly close them. ”
"Only in this way can we ensure that the entire virtual world is safe and reliable enough, after all, no one wants to walk on the road and be suddenly stoned to death by a stone generated in the sky for no reason."
Hearing this, everyone laughed, thinking that this is also the case.
Zhang Yuan continued: "World 13 is equivalent to a derivative of the real world, and the Badit people are imprisoned here. Our fallen soldiers also live here. ”
"There is also the 14th world, which is the real virtual world, an idealistic world. This world community involves the Transcendent Project, so don't think too much about it before everyone dies of old age......"
Therefore, according to this reasoning, except for some military and experimental bills, most of the plans need to be strictly discussed, and the security issue is still the most important.
Just kidding, for the development of this technology, I'd rather slow down and slow down than mess around.
The next discussion is the decipherment of the classified information in the black box and the body of knowledge that the Bardit have contributed in recent times.
This is also a point of great interest to everyone.
Yes, the confidential information in the black box has been deciphered after some overtime, and coupled with the non-stop interrogation of the Badites, the translation of the entire civilization has gone quite smoothly.
The content in it simply surprised everyone.
Contains some cosmological common sense that humans desire, as well as a lot of technology, and is a kind of supplement to the interrogation work of the Bardits!
Don't forget, this alien civilization's spaceship is a commercial spaceship, and its main purpose is to trade commercially.
And most of the transactions between interstellar civilizations are not material, but information, and technology!
The farthest distance of this spacecraft was 110 light-years away from its home planet, and during the entire voyage, it encountered two groups of aliens with interstellar navigation capabilities, and humans were the third group. Part of this information was stored in a black box, and is now being intercepted by humans.
This discovery can make everyone excited, but they did not expect that this loot is much more abundant than expected, and it is absolutely real and reliable, and it is unlikely to be fraudulent.
Sorting out this batch of information has naturally become the first choice for the current work.
"Everyone, look!"
When it came to this topic, everyone was in spirit.
Zhang Yuan tapped his finger, and a star path image was displayed on the big screen, with more than a hundred stars on it, connected with each other by thin lines.
Zhang Yuandao: "This route is the route that the Badit people walked this time. In order to obtain greater commercial benefits, it can be said that a little detour was deliberately taken a long way. ”
"And at the end of this route, there is a fourth-level civilization trading market...... Most of the technology in the black box was exchanged for this exchange. There is also some information that was obtained from trading with two other interstellar civilizations. ”
"As for these two interstellar civilizations, they just passed by on the journey and exchanged a little thing at will."
Therefore, the confession of the Badit people is not false, and from these records, everyone should be able to understand why we are regarded as a rookie civilization. I hope that in the future, when communicating with interstellar civilizations, everyone will pay attention. ”
"And where we're at, probably here, 44.9 light-years away from that exchange."
Zhang Yuan pointed to a black area in the middle of the image, and the star on the far edge is the destination of this time, 187J3X2.
The distribution of cosmic strings is like a complex neural network, but compared to the breadth of the entire universe, this neural network still seems a little sparse.
Therefore, even if the Badit civilization has been exploring this starry sky for tens of thousands of years, it can only explore a small part of the area around the cosmic string. 187J3X2, which happens to be an unexplored place.
Stars like the sun, which are several light-years away from the cosmic strings, and interstellar civilizations below level 4 do not have much interest in exploring at all. This is also determined by geographical location. Even if it is a third-level civilization, if it cannot be propelled by gravity, most of the mass of the spaceship will have to be used for fuel, and it is likely that there will be no return trip.
Zhang Yuan pointed to the end of this route: "The star where this trading market is located - let's name it Huantai Star for the time being, the host civilization on it is called Huantai civilization, a fourth-level civilization with curvature technology. You should also know, what exactly does curvature technology mean? ”
"Do you mean that we can also go to the exchange of this fourth-level civilization?" Ye Junchang stroked his glasses and fell into deep thought.
"Yes, that's right, if we want to expand our communication with the outside world, it's a good choice."
Hearing Zhang Yuan's affirmative answer, the rest of the people also discussed in a whisper, some frowned, thinking that humans could indeed go all the way over and go to the exchange to have a look, and some people were silent and did not speak.
"According to the pause in the middle, maintenance, almost six hundred years, with hibernation, is quite acceptable."
In addition, it is possible to pass through several living planets in between. These planets are all low-level civilizations that have been discovered by the Bardite civilization, and the level of technology is not high, and some are even in the primitive era.
The Bhatit civilization did not have much interest in communication, but ...... Humans have!
The historiography of the new civilization of mankind must collect more historical samples. The more this discipline of management develops, the less likely it is for human beings to take detours.
Some people find it a bit dangerous...... Although a lot of common sense about the universe has been supplemented, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what if, if you are robbed by aliens again, even if you win in the end, human beings must also consider the risks.
