170 Mars Expedition Part II

At this moment, in Lingxiao Palace, Bai Zhongqi has invited Mo Laitong, Lin Yin, and even Xu Lanzhou and Du Peng to watch the major discoveries under Mars together. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Dozens of dragonfly drones are scanning the pyramid in every detail, and even those who have seen many cosmic anecdotes can't help but be shocked by this discovery at this moment.

The side stones of the pyramid are engraved with countless symbols like seals. After seeing those symbols clearly, Lin Yin's expression changed drastically, and she exclaimed, "It's the text of the elder race!" ”

Bai Zhongqi was also extremely surprised, the word elder race was still relatively new to him, but he already knew well enough what kind of power and history these four words represented.

As the largest number of intelligent beings in the universe, or at least in the galaxy, primates, or Terrans, are believed to have generally originated from a distant ancestor, just as humans on Earth believe that they all originated from a specific ethnic group in Africa.

Primates, on the other hand, multiply on planets across the galaxy, growing and evolving, becoming a group with the same genetic fragments but many different characteristics. The Iridium people believe that the common distant ancestor who created countless primate humans is the so-called Elder Race.

There is a lot of evidence in the cosmic archaeology of Iridium, directly or indirectly, that the Milky Way galaxy has existed for more than 10 billion years, and there have been two periods of prosperity and decline of civilizations before and after, just like the geological age of the earth. The Elder Race existed in the galaxy during the first period of civilization, and it was also considered by the Iridium to be the only civilization that ever ruled the entire galaxy in its entirety (although the galaxy was not as vast as it is now).

The flourishing period of the First Civilization, also known as the Archaic Universe by the Iridium people, is likely to be the first intelligent life born in the universe about four billion years after the birth of the universe. How the ancient universe declined, the Iridium people did not know. This was followed by a long period of darkness, when it was generally believed that there were only a small number of civilizations in the galaxy, and that the decline of civilization was quite severe.

Until more than 3 billion years ago, the second flourishing period of civilization appeared, which was the ancient era. Many powerful civilizations appeared during this period, the galaxy appeared in a situation of hegemony, more intelligent races sprouted, and developed a variety of characteristic civilizations, and many traces of civilization are even left to this day.

The reason for the destruction of the Ancients is known to the Iridians, the long wars, and the fact that some civilizations have mastered too powerful weapons, coupled with the invaders of the mysterious extragalactic galaxy, have finally weakened or even degenerated almost all civilizations in the Ancients. Legend has it that some civilizations have mastered the power of dimensional manipulation and have retreated to other universes, but there is no way to prove it.

It can be confirmed that after the Ancients, the devastated Milky Way once again entered the Dark Ages, known as the Epoch. After more than three billion years of continuous destruction and rebirth, the galaxy once again ushered in the flourishing period of civilization, and a large number of powerful civilizations appeared, but no civilization was as strong as the ancient civilization.

Iridium, a new civilization that has not been inherited from the ancient civilization, but has sprouted and developed on its own, is no longer a few. But the ancient civilization of the past was a successor, or a vassal of the powerful civilization of the past, even if it was only obtained something inconsequential at the beginning, the Tao is now an extremely powerful civilization.

The Iridium people have naturally heard that there is a class of civilizations that claim to be "Eyewitnesses of the Galaxy", and the history of civilization for millions of years is relatively young. They don't associate easily with new civilizations, and it's hard to even be detected. But if you don't have the brains to go to war with them, then you must be the one who will be destroyed.

Bai Zhongqi had thought that these were just the settings of the game, and he had excavated the archaeological remains of the elder race in the game, and had also conducted diplomacy with the envoy ships of the Galactic Observer. But Bai Zhongqi never expected that the elder race would actually appear in the real world.

"Could it be that the game I play is not a game world at all, but a real parallel universe? What is in the first galaxy and what is in the second galaxy, is actually the same? ”

Bai Zhongqi couldn't help but think in shock at this moment, these things naturally can't be said to Xu Lanzhou and others. It wasn't that he hadn't thought about this possibility, but the fact that the game he controlled was connected to a real universe made him shudder more than the situation in which the fleet crossed in the game.

No one knew what Bai Zhongqi was thinking at the moment, Lin Yin looked at the symbols on the pyramid of Tongtian intently, and said: "There has always been a debate in the academic circles, thinking that these symbols are not the words of the elder race at all, but a kind of technology in themselves. Each symbol represents a piece of information that can be terabytes in size. It took our scholars 3,000 years to decipher ten symbols with a rough guess. The successful decipherment of several of these symbols has brought about the improvement of Iridium technology. ”

Mo Laitong's face was also full of seriousness at this moment, and he said: "The two-stage warp engine we have successfully developed is a method obtained by deciphering the inherited symbols of the elder race. However, to decipher these things, we are completely guessed, and we are blinded to what they are used for, even if they succeed, we ourselves don't know if this was the original intention of the elder race in the first place. Even if we use a lot of computing power and use the exhaustive method, we can't achieve much without the creative thinking and connection of people. ”

Lin Yin's beautiful eyes were now full of brilliance, and she even grabbed Bai Zhongqi's arm a little rudely, and said excitedly: "The symbols of the elder race that the United Empire obtained before were only 131, and most of them were considered undecipherable, and we have deciphered 10 in three thousand years. Your Majesty, and now, we have found a giant pyramid hundreds of kilometers high, with heirloom symbols on each step, even if there are repetitions in it, but just this pyramid of Babel, its value is immeasurable! ”

Compared with Lin Yin's excitement, Bai Zhongqi seemed calmer. This also made everyone feel unfathomable about it.

Xu Lanzhou said at this time: "In this way, there is a great correlation between the first universe and the second universe, maybe the elder race is the same as us, from the first universe to the second universe, if we can get something useful here, it may help us return to the first universe." ”

The heroic female commander of the Space Army looked at Bai Zhongqi's back with a pair of bright eyes, and said in an excited tone: "The entire United Empire will usher in the return of His Majesty the Führer!" ”
