Chapter 8 Hey, the background can be regarded as the explanation
When it comes to coordinate-hopping across galaxies, passengers other than the operator are actually bored. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
No matter what kind of transportation you take on the earth, passengers can lie on the window to look at the outside environment, and if the outside environment is good, many people like to take pictures to commemorate it. However, in the coordinate jump at the speed of light in space, the spacecraft is basically in a subspace state all the time, in the subspace, everything outside the spacecraft cannot be observed with the naked eye, and the only way to see the outside world is to jump from subspace into the normal universe again and again for a short time.
Qiu Yan seemed quiet after listening to the explanation, sitting on the small chair next to the console as if in a daze. Jiang You can understand her current state: she suddenly accepted too much information directly, and anyone who came would be confused, just to see how long she would be stunned. He contacted the data terminal in the spirit link, and learned that his spaceship was less than half the way from the sovereign hub, and after thinking about it, he decided to give the little girl a time to divert her attention first. Anyway, the whole main control room was mind-controlled, so he made a dining table and pulled out the lunch he had bought in the Clock Country from his storage space - but now it was evening if Earth time was calculated.
patted Qiu Yan's shoulder, the little girl jumped up like a cat that had been stepped on by the tail, and only after seeing that it was Jiang You did she pat her chest and say, "Brother-in-law, what are you doing, you want to scare me to death, don't you know that people are the most terrible to be scared!" ”
"Are you sitting in a daze, do you feel hungry? Do you think your body is the same as mine, and you don't need to eat? Hurry up and eat! Jiang You pretended to be very majestic and ordered the little girl.
"Ahh The belly is almost on the back, bad brother-in-law, why do you only remember that I still have to eat, I haven't eaten at noon! The little girl finally came back to her senses, looked at the various cheesecakes that had been placed on the table next to her, and rushed to the table to eat with a cheer.
Watching Qiu Yan eat indulgently, Jiang You waited until her movements slowed down before he began to ask her. "After listening to the story, what do you think about the future?"
"Of course it's with my brother-in-law! The sea of stars is so big, who is willing to swim in a small pond? But since you said that you want to guide the development of the earth, brother-in-law, of course I have to keep up with such good deeds. "It seems that there is basically a unity of consciousness.
"I think so, when we go back, you go to the school to apply for a leave of absence, and the company I make is completely managed by you, it doesn't matter if you make money or not, just maintain our exposure. During this period, we try our best to recruit some young people who are not very old and have not yet solidified their thinking, so that they do not need to impart too much knowledge beyond civilization at the beginning. We guide them to make relatively rudimentary scientific and technological innovations in some aspects of human survival and life, and it is easy for them to achieve results under our guidance. This is a snowballing process, maybe not many people are willing to come to learn from us at the beginning, but as more and more achievements appear in our subordinates, there will naturally be a large number of new blood to join. When these people come to learn and think that they can stand on their own, they will naturally collide with the existing interest class, and with what they have learned, if they can't win against the old guys who only know how to fight in the nest, then they should simply go home. ”
"Their learning process can be carried out by building a virtual world, during which we will first do the exploration of the local universe and the basic development of nearby planets. Planets like Mars and the Moon that are too close will be left to the Earth itself, let's go a little farther away and get a planetary base within 5 light years, anyway, it won't be too difficult for me to transform the planet. Jiang You pushed two, five, six, basically picked himself out, and planned to leave everything to Qiu Yan to do. What, you say he needs to teach those students himself? Dear, have you ever heard of the virtual world? When you are a teacher, you can just let the data terminal make your own shape and do it in a virtual server!
"Then how do we get along with those forces on Earth now?" Qiu Yan seems to have completely expanded her thinking circuit.
"Don't get close, don't exclude, don't pay attention. Those who can keep up with us don't mind if they develop the universe together. ”
"Those who are narrow-minded and only look at interests, and want to suppress us, they will not give an inch to-for-tat, even if they use force, it doesn't matter."
"The more aggressive religions either change their own doctrine or are swept into the dust of history by us."
"If capital wants to suppress the development of science and technology for its own interests, then use money to turn capital into straw paper; If force suppresses technology for the sake of profit, then let force become hello-kitty! ”
"Patent-related laws must be amended so that patent owners can reap sufficient benefits, but they must not be turned into tools to suppress the world's scientific and technological development."
"Politics is a piece of ****, compromise, balance, exchange of interests, what are those things? The most shameless people in the world are politicians, and our future does not need politics. Jiang You said what he thought.
"Brother-in-law, you're so disgusting, people are eating!" The autumn goose jumped up and hit Jiang You on the back.
The rest of the journey was easy. The two of them chatted and watched the news on the earth - the poor data terminal was completely squeezed by Jiang You, and they kept releasing drone probes when they were jumping all the way to time and space, so the little girl was happily watching the live broadcast of the game and brushing the forum in the vast universe that was billions of light years away from the earth. It wasn't until it was ten light-seconds away from the Empire's sovereign hub that the spaceship completely broke away from the chrono-jump state and slowly approached the behemoth that represented the Empire at an ultra-low speed.
Qiu Yan diverted his attention from the virtual screen when the spaceship was out of the chrono state.
The Imperial Sovereign Hub is built in an unusually empty cosmic space around it, with no galaxies at all for hundreds of light-years in the vicinity. The starlight in the extreme distance shone brightly in the cosmic background, and the two people on the bridge were completely attracted by the holographic projection transmitted by the terminal: Jiang You himself had actually seen the Imperial Sovereign Hub for the first time, and he had only seen the corresponding model in the database before.
Those were three rather weird-looking planets. Obviously, they do not belong to any kind of planet known to man: they do not have the rough color of rocky planets, nor do they have the smooth appearance of gaseous or liquid planets, nor do they see the natural colorful surface of ordinary ecological planets. They are obviously planets, but they are shrouded in a pale green light on the surface of the planet, and under the faint light, you can see the clear and clear areas of the earth, and those neat and neat surface divisions make people know at a glance that they are not naturally formed.
"Is this a sovereign hub? Do they have any other meaning than to label our universe as an empire? "Qiu Yan is a good boy, if you don't understand, you have to ask.
"Oh, according to the imperial history I read, they are Z226, Z227 and Z228. All of them are mass-produced planet fortresses of the Empire - it is said that all three of us here were mass-produced by a god named Gaia. The basic functions of these three planetary fortresses are completely identical, and they are all conventional space management and maintenance devices. Usually each universe under the empire will have such three planetary fortresses, although their basic functions are completely identical, but according to the final function of the different divisions, they are divided into constraint hosts, calibration hosts, and redundant hosts. Jiang You began to endorse.
"The function of z226 is to constrain the host, which is responsible for managing and controlling the constants of our universe, such as the speed of light, Planck's constant, and fundamental force values, all of which are under the control of z226. In our popular language, z226 is the lawmaker. ”
"The function of z227 is mathematical rate calibration, which is responsible for constraining the rules of operation of all constants in the world, such as one plus one equals two - it is the rule-combinator. In terms of our myths and legends, it is the Heavenly Dao of our universe. ”
"The function of the Z228 is to backup, that is, the disaster safety rescue machine, and it will only be activated when the Z226 or Z227 fails. In addition, when a special catastrophe occurs in our universe, such as when the whole world suddenly collapses, K3 can also extract backup records to reset the entire universe to a good state. But what I hope is that it will never have a chance to start, because its backup is not done in real time, and basically under normal circumstances, Earth time will only be recorded once every 2,000 years - which means that if our universe suddenly collapses and it starts, we will have to go back to the Three Kingdoms period or even the Han Dynasty. ”
"Under normal circumstances, there would be a World Gate here. But because our universe has not yet been included in the management of the macro world, the gate of the world has not yet been established. ”
"The meaning of the existence of the World Gate, first of all, is that it is a detector of civilization degree. Because the Imperial Sovereign Hub comes with an additional rule: no planets can exist within two hundred light-years of the Empire, and in order to reach the gates of the world, you must have the ability to travel at high speeds - of course, I don't have a word for which race has a super-long life to get here at sub-light speeds. ”
"Secondly, the World Gate is actually a cosmic rule-shifting device. As long as you pass through the World Gate, you will arrive at another universe, and the basic rules of different universes cannot be exactly the same, and without the transformation of the rules of the World Gate, the creatures of this universe will not be able to survive in other universes - unless this civilization can already modify its own description. But if a civilization is able to modify its description, then it is not far from establishing its own world gate and evolving into an immortal being. ”
Qiu Yan held Jiang You's left hand tightly with both hands, and she could feel that this girl's hand was cold.
Jiang You patted the little girl lightly with his right hand, signaling that she didn't need to be too nervous, and asked her gently, "Do you want to go out and have a closer look?" ”
"If I go out, I'm going to die, right? Isn't it very lethal to carry all kinds of radiation from the vacuum environment of the universe? Qiu Yan looked very wanted but scared.
"Have you forgotten who I am? As for you, remember the necklace I gave you before we got on the ship? Jiang You comforted her.
"That necklace is so ugly, is there any special purpose?" Qiu Yan took out the gray-looking necklace from her coat pocket.
"I didn't design it to be ugly. This necklace is made as a standard module of the Empire, and its full name is the "Carbon-Based Biological Disaster Environmental Life Support Collar", or simply the Life Support Collar. Wearing it, any carbon-based organism can live normally in ultra-harsh environments, including but not limited to high radiation, highly toxic, vacuum, ultra-high temperature, ultra-low temperature, etc. Do you still think it's ugly? Jiang You chuckled.
"But it's really ugly!" Qiu Yan pouted, grunting as she put the necklace around her neck.
Jiang You went to the console and patted the data terminal that was still plugged in it, "Get up, let's go out for a walk." ”
"I really don't know what's so nice about the sovereign hub, and it's really naïve to land there・・・・・・" The terminal complained mercilessly, flipped off the operating table, and jumped into Jiang You's pocket.
"What are you lazy about, you know that you are not allowed to land on it, why should we still drive the spaceship over? Teleport us to the past. Jiang You was not polite, planning to be lazy.
"Please read the Imperial Decree carefully, Chapter 2571, Article 9964, which prohibits non-managers from using the coordinate transmission function within 50,000 kilometers of the sovereign hub! Are you planning to hang yourself on the Shadow City and perform the Five Thunder Boom? The terminal replied angrily.
"Well・・・・・・ let's fly 50,000 kilometers away and shut down the spacecraft first." Jiang You rolled his eyes, he really hadn't paid attention to these imperial decrees - if he wanted to use A4 paper with No. 4 characters to print out imperial decrees, the catalog alone would at least be higher than others, who would be able to memorize the entire imperial code!? How big is the macro world? The number of universes alone is measured in trillions! If the empire wants to govern the entire macro world, it can't be a law that does nothing, right?
Stopping the spacecraft 60,000 kilometers away from Z226, Jiang You boarded the small shuttle with Qiu Yan with the terminal. These miniature ships are the size of a car on Earth, powered by ghost raids, but they don't have the ability to travel through time and space, and they travel at extremely low speeds - in terms of Imperial efficiency. The good thing is that the shuttle comes with a small 20 million cubic meter gnark that can be used to store various specimens collected from the planet's surface - a planetary exploration vehicle.
The shuttle does not have an order, a force field, and a life-sustaining system, but Jiang You doesn't need it, and Qiu Yan doesn't need these things if he has a life-support collar. The shock of a close-up look at the Sovereign Hub is far beyond the scanning and 3D projection of the Far Star. Thirty kilometers close to the sovereign hub (this is the closest that no administrators are allowed to reach, and any closer will be considered an invasion), and every ten kilometers there are towers that seem to reach into the sky, the balls of light that are obviously suspended with huge energy, and the pure white order field on the ground that is bound like a marshmallow, each time it makes the autumn geese exclaim.
Jiang You silently watched all this in front of him, and once again strengthened his belief that human beings should never limit their sight to the earth!
