Chapter 189: Zhang Yuan, the Beggar
Taking advantage of the fact that he could have a conversation with the other party, Zhang Yuan pondered for a while, and then asked, "That four-dimensional creature is still trapped there, have you captured it?" It's too much of a threat to us......"
So that guy is called zero-x?
"What about my companion, then...... There should be two humans like me, still trapped in a high-dimensional prison. Flash: "He thought of the two soldiers again.
Hearing this result, Zhang Yuan just sighed in his heart.
He had no way to blame others, after all, he was very, very lucky to survive...... He couldn't directly blame the alien civilization for not saving him if he saw death.
"It's also possible that the two soldiers were moving around in the high-dimensional space and accidentally touched their internal organs, and they died suddenly. Hey......"
But soon, Zhang Yuan's mind was racing again......
When he was on the verge of death, he encountered a high-level civilization that seemed to be quite friendly. Although I don't know if the other party is an artificial intelligence or a real creature, but the temper is not bad......
Even though he himself had been staying in this small space, not knowing what was going on outside, there were still some faint speculations in his heart.
Zhang Yuan is racking his brains to use this information to seek some benefits for himself, or for mankind!
Zhang Yuan licked his dry lips, and his heartbeat began to increase.
He deeply knew that if he missed this time, it was very likely that he would never have the opportunity to come into contact with such a high civilization in the future...... Humanity is still the same ordinary human being, and nothing will change.
But there is no love in the world for no reason, and it is likely that people are polite to you, and it is likely that it is just habit. It's like a normal person who sees an ant about to drown and takes a leaf to save him, just because he is habitually kind.
But if the ant doesn't know what to do and has to climb up along the arm, it can only bounce it into the gutter......
Zhang Yuan suddenly said, "May I ask the name of your civilization?" ”
Is Gaia civilization AI......
Zhang Yuan stiffened: "Dear Ita...... Your Excellency, I would like to ask, is there no substantial reward for me helping you catch zero-x? ”
As he said this, his breathing became rapid, and even though he couldn't feel his body at all now, he still felt the same emotion.
This is an instinctive physiological reaction in the face of an unknown existence, Zhang Yuan is not a professionally trained spy, just a scientist.
Sure enough, the other party was silent and did not reply immediately. 35xs
As the minutes passed, Zhang Yuan began to become more nervous.
He lamented in his heart: "O human beings, human beings, try hard! ”
"If our civilization is strong enough, why should I risk my life here and beg from other civilizations?"
"What's the difference between that and begging?"
He slowly calmed his mind.
But what if begging can become stronger?
The other party replied:
"No...... Excellency Ita, for us, the technological generation gap between high-dimensional fragments is too great, but it is not of much use. Zhang Yuan said cautiously: "You can take back that piece of high-dimensional fragment and give us lower-level technology...... We can't thank you enough for your gift. ”
Zhang Yuan: This is a bet!
Bet that the other party doesn't care about any high-dimensional fragments at all, and is too lazy to recover them.
In other words, the cost of recycling is relatively high!
Although high-dimensional debris can be used to travel through space, it is ...... The high-dimensional fragments themselves should not be able to travel through space. It is like a gate, people can pass through the door, but this door cannot pass through itself.
It's a matter of logic!
Zhang Yuan believes that even if a very advanced civilization and no matter how advanced science and technology are, the whole logic cannot be reversed, otherwise there is no way for the world to understand!
According to the information in the previous paragraph, let Zhang Yuan take the fleet of the amoeba civilization back to Earth, indicating that this kind of space shuttle is not random and may require a relatively high price, or a high-dimensional fragment is needed as a projection point.
So, he's gambling, betting that the other party has no interest in running all the way over and recycling this thing in exchange for greater benefits.
“…… Our civilization has had a hard time, and even a small disaster can kill our entire population. For example, the zero-x can easily take control of our computers and read a lot of confidential information about our civilization. ”
"But for you, any little help can make our lives better and make us take a little less detours......" Zhang Yuan stubbornly began to sell miserably, "Our life span is very short, and we can only survive for a hundred years......"
"Our science is so backward that we don't know what you call it......"
Ita was a little annoyed in her heart, as a high-IQ artificial intelligence, it easily penetrated Zhang Yuan's thoughts.
It was even able to read directly the thoughts in Zhang Yuan's mind.
It's just that I didn't do it with good personal principles......
However, what the other party said seemed to be right, according to the intelligence level of the creature, the probability of cracking the mysteries of the high-dimensional space was less than 0.02 per 10,000.
In this way, high-dimensional fragments are indeed not of much use, and may even bring certain risks......
As a higher intelligence, Ita has a strong sense of self and his own unique personal emotions and personal ethics.
Due to the bad taste of the creator Gaia civilization, it even has a slight social phobia, otherwise it would not have stayed in this ghost place, and would not have left until the supernova explodes......
After thinking for a while, it said:
500…… Amoeba points?
Could it be the common currency in an interstellar civilization?
Zhang Yuan didn't know how much 500 amoeba points were worth and how much purchasing power they had. But for now, humanity simply does not have the ability to travel to the stars...... Even if it's worth a universe, it's useless.
With the idea that ten birds in the forest are not as good as one bird in hand, he said tentatively: "Dear Excellency Ita, amoeba points are still not of much use to us......
"Perhaps, you can give us this computer, this is the biggest reward for us."
Zhang Yuan's purpose is...... This computer is on standby!
This is the only technology product he can get his hands on. As for things like scientific papers, I still don't think about it for the time being, and the more I ask, the more irritated the other party becomes......
