The arc didn't respond to his question, just swam leisurely in front of him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Ziyang continued to ask questions in her mind, "Who are you?" Where am I? Am I dead? ”

This time, there was no giant screen lit up, but the arc light seemed to understand Ziyang's question, and suddenly stopped in front of him. A strange middle-aged male voice suddenly appeared in Ziyang's mind:

"I'm the last survivor on the planet."

"You're in the wreckage of my ship."

"You are still maintaining the human state of life."

After this arc light appeared, another life suddenly appeared in the void world, and Ziyang instantly felt no longer so lonely.

"Are you dead? Are you an artificial intelligence? ”

After 800,000 years, Azusa believes that any organism will disappear.

"What is death? What is Artificial Intelligence? ”

Arc asked rhetorically.

Then he continued, "In your human understanding, my body may be 'dead,' but my mind, or what you call my soul, is preserved as a quantum state. ”

"Ownerless Wandering Spirit" Zi Yang suddenly remembered the theory that Ah Chong explained to him. The question continued in his mind, "So you are immortal?" ”

Arc Light was silent for a moment, and seemed to say in a mournful tone, "I will also be annihilated." ”

Strangely, Ziyang actually heard human emotions from the soul of this quantum state.

As if seeing Zi Yang's thinking (that is certain), Arc replied, "The real history of human civilization is less than 10,000 years, I have been learning about life and culture on the earth, and I have even created a language for you - in fact, the human beings on the earth are the same as the humans on our planet, they are happy and sorrowful, love and hate, and emotionally, the higher life on our two planets is similar. ”

Zi Yang suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "Could it be that in a sense, you are the ancestor of mankind?" "The spaceship fell 800,000 years ago, to some extent, at that time, human society had not yet originated, and if "it" wanted to, it could become the ancestor of human beings on Earth.

Arc Light replied: "No, although our civilization is millions of years ahead of you, our planetary culture is the principle of not interfering with the development of other planets and races, and respecting every life. ”

"It's just that later I broke this rule, 4,600 years ago on the earth, I saw a tribe developing rapidly, and I helped one of the humans, hoping to use his hand to promote the progress of the entire earth's civilization."

At this time, the arc light suddenly disappeared, and the giant curtain appeared in front of him again, an ancient man reverently knelt at the feet of the dog-headed god Anubis, compared with humans, the god Anubis was very huge, more than ten meters high, the crutch in his hand pointed at the head of the ancient man, and a beam of light shrouded him, as if the god Anubis was imparting him knowledge and some kind of superpower.

Then the picture changed, and hundreds of thousands of ancient people appeared in the desert, driving giant elephants, pulling boulders to work like ants on the ground, and a huge pyramid was gradually erected on the ground.

Zi Yang was speechless, "Ancient Egyptian civilization? Was it really created by aliens? “

"However, according to the technology and capabilities you have mastered, the process of human development should be rapidly changed, and technology is at least thousands of years ahead of the current one." In Ziyang's cognition, Egyptian civilization fell thousands of years ago, and there are no other "shining" civilizations left except for the pyramids and mysterious sacrificial temples.

The arc light did not speak, and the style of painting on the giant screen suddenly changed, and the pious ancient man at the beginning of the picture had become a gorgeously dressed pharaoh, sitting condescendingly on a huge high platform, with the scepter in his hand pointing ahead, and around the high platform, thousands of slaves prostrate at his feet.

The picture continues to change.

Pharaoh began to raise a powerful army, killing and looting, and destroying the land with all living creatures.

The pharaoh began to collect curiosities, greedily feasting on delicacies, surrounded by beautiful women and enslaved by herds of slaves.

Majestic pyramids rise, but inside are buried successive pharaohs and their rich funerary goods.

At the foot of the pyramid, thousands of corpses of hard labor are piled up.

At this moment, Ziyang also understands that the knowledge and superpowers given by the arc have not promoted the rapid development of human civilization, but have become a tool for a few people to satisfy their rights and desires.

Ziyang had a question in his mind, "Then why don't you take back power?" Sanction them. ”

"The lust for power and slavery are human characteristics, and even if I don't intervene, it will inevitably happen in the course of history, and sanctioning them will only set human civilization back a few thousand years." ”

"And what about later?"

Arc Light said: "I don't care about them, let them fend for themselves." ”

Zi Yang finally understood why a glorious ancient civilization would inexplicably fall in history. Power and power are a double-edged sword, those who possess it do not use it for the benefit of mankind, but use it in the pursuit of spirit and pleasure, in order to pursue their own selfish desires, they refuse to share knowledge and power with the masses, and in order to consolidate divine power, they even ignorate mortals. Once the secret of the "divine power" is mastered by the sacrifice and the pharaoh dies, the civilization will automatically end.

Zi Yang said, "That's right, humans are selfish. But you shouldn't give up, every human being has a different mind and realm. Maybe with another person, the result will be different. There are still many selfless people in this world. ”

Regarding Ziyang's "accusation", Arc Light was not "angry": "That girl sees it very accurately, you are indeed different from ordinary people." ”

Zi Yang thought to herself: Girl, could it be Su Rui? Could it be that she had communicated with Arc Light before?

This time, Arc Light did not react to Ziyang's brain waves, but said to himself, "I really didn't give up, like you said, I made a lot of attempts, but after the first lesson, I was much weaker in my participation, and tried not to affect human civilization as the principle." ”

"But several attempts failed, and they were either full of fear and foolish worship of my incarnation as a god, or full of selfish desires, wanting to possess more things and demanding higher rights, and none of them went in the direction I wanted."

"Thousands of years ago, I finally became completely disillusioned with humanity and gave up my efforts to stop interfering in the course of humanity, until recently, when the situation changed and I had to interfere again in the development of humanity."

Ziyang continued to ask, "What kind of emergency?" ”

Arc Light: The spaceship is running out of energy, and it's depleting thousands of years earlier than I estimated.

The reason why I broke the rules and interfered with the civilization of the earth was actually out of necessity.

The shuttle I was riding represented the most advanced technology on our planet at the time. After the crash on Earth, I tried to fix it, but later I realized that I could not do it alone without the help of a strong external force.

I can only wait, and when the civilization on this planet evolves enough to master space technology, I will ask them for help, but just like life on Earth, as an organism, life is also limited. In order to survive, I had to give up my body. Transform my mind and consciousness into a quantum state - you earthlings, call this the soul.

Zi Yang understood why it was such an arc light and not a "person" that appeared in front of him.

The survivor is actually "dead" a long time ago, and the person who talks to him is actually a soul, a soul that has existed for hundreds of thousands of years.

Arc Light continued: After the ship's crash, it has been relying on the core core in the engine to maintain the energy supply, and the sun you see at the top of the cave is the energy core, which provides energy to the spacecraft, and the spacecraft uses the energy field to maintain the balance of the core.

After 800,000 years of consumption, the core is close to 'death', the state is becoming more and more unstable, and the energy force field maintained by its energy is also constantly depleting.

Decades ago, the energy field was no longer fully controllable, and the strange creatures you found before were genetically mutated by a chain reaction caused by energy leakage.

Ziyang Dao: So, the mysterious phenomena that happened around Lop Nur were all caused by abnormal energy?

The arc paused for a moment, which was considered a default.

"My control is waning, the leaks are getting worse, and soon, I'll lose control of the energy force field completely."

Ziyang continued to ponder in his mind: So will something worse happen?

Arc Light also responded in his mind: compared to the loss of control of the force field, the impact of the current leak is only a drop in the ocean.

The energy core is actually a miniature star, which operates on the same principle as a star, and has a life cycle, and when the energy is about to run out, the energy field that keeps it shining begins to become unstable. This will cause the star to start pulsating irregularly - which is why the magnetic anomaly you observe on the satellites in space is the cause.

Once the energy is exhausted, the core will collapse inward, and in a very short time, the temperature of the core will reach tens of billions of degrees, and without the protection of the outer energy force field, the gravitational force it generates will swallow everything around it.
