Having said that, as an important symbol to distinguish civilizations, the importance of history and culture suddenly became important at this time, such as the extraterrestrial civilization visitors in front of Bai He, they are one of the most recent in the history of the many intelligent civilizations in this galaxy group, to Bai He's surprise, they are shorter than the civilization history of the earthlings, and they are actually amino intelligence living in ammonia water.

However, this only surprised Bai He for a moment, after all, the intelligent carriers at this level are almost the same, and his contact with Bai He is quite interesting, stemming from the territorial conflict between the two sides, these particle-scale civilizations have the ability to encroach on matter on a small scale, this discovery makes Bai He feel a little bad, according to the other party, except for some extreme areas with intense cosmic activity in this galaxy cluster, many of them are 'occupied' in this way;

Imagining what it looks like, Bai He was a little scary for a while: for example, a large creature like a human being, maybe in daily life, there are many Zhizi creatures mixed with all kinds of things that are fiddling, and even everyone unconsciously has a number of Zhizi civilizations parasitic on certain molecules in their bodies, and they are enthusiastically observing the every move of these backward civilizations.

The reality is obviously not as bad as Bai He imagined, according to this extraterrestrial civilization, the number of advanced civilizations is not large, and the distribution is extremely sparse, and not every high civilization likes to encroach on matter, more civilizations still focus on exploring the universe and exploring the unknown.

Shirakawa communicated with him, and the civilization to which this guy belonged had reached the final stage of society—all the scattered individuals of the civilization had disappeared, and the flow of information was completely concentrated on this single individual.

It's hard to imagine what kind of history this civilization has gone through, and after the 'ascension', it has chosen such a social cluster method, but when you think about it, what's so strange about this? Isn't it the same with Shirakawa's own organization, although the thinking individuals below have autonomy, but this pattern of information flow...... What is the difference between saying that Baihe Technology Company is his independent existence?

It's a group of billions of individuals...... If each individual is regarded as a fragment of information, why not as a whole?

Could it be the natural selection of this civilization in its ultimate form?

That's interesting......

But what does it have to do with yourself?

This is the main service station set up by Bai He on Pluto, in an area the size of a Rubik's cube, but it has expanded into several virtual spaces as huge as the earth, Bai He sat on the recliner, looked at the starry sky in the distance through the radio telescope, and looked back at the galaxial-level accelerator being built outside the Oort Cloud, as if he was deep in thought.

"Dad, if you hit the dark energy star, you can't analyze the internal structure, if you get trapped in it, won't you have to finish the game?"

"The sun is still billions old, and the universe is only a few billion years old~ Ellie, it's not so simple to find an observer. ”

"But will it take that long?" said Ellie, frowning.

"He's a guy who can create a fantasy world out of thin air, ~ Of course, this ability we also have now, a civilized individual at the level of a Zhizi person, it's not too difficult to do this. But with this ability, we still can't find any clues about him~" Bai He opened his limbs relaxedly: "In this way, I think there is only one more reliable speculation." ”

"What?"

"He's out of the universe. ”

“...... Dad, that's not funny at all. Ellie laughed twice: "He wants you to find him, so why did he throw you back into this universe?"

"This is probably to test your father and me~ to see if I can break through this universe. Shirakawa smiled: "Ellie my good daughter, I often think about a question, and now I suddenly have a model that may be true." ”

"What's Daddy's idea?" said Ellie tilted her head.

Bai He smiled, suddenly picked up the fruit basket on the tea table in his hand, and threw it into the pond next to him.

There were a few pops, and the pool splashed, and the ripples in the shape of circles echoed in all directions.

"Huh?" Ellie came out of her form and looked at the pool inexplicably.

"Look at the ripples. Bai He whispered, "Do you see anything?"

"Daddy, are you doing this?" Ellie frowned, thought for a while, and looked back at Bai He: "Wait, Daddy, I seem to understand something, but you better make it clear." ”

"What if you think of every spreading water streak as an expanding open universe?"

"Frightened!" Ellie's eyes widened, her body suddenly trembled, and she took a step back: "Daddy, you ...... It's really an amazing idea. ”

"Our universe is expanding, and eventually, with a great split, the cosmic matter it carries ~ will be called so for the time being, and it will collide and squeeze with the cosmic matter released when the neighboring universes split~

It's like the crest of the wave formed by the edge of these water ripples~ so that a new singularity is formed, just like before the Big Bang~ and then the crest of the wave falls~ This cycle begins again......" Shirakawa looked at the undulating pond with waves one after another:

"If this model is true, the universe we live in is just a little ripple in the big pond of the wide universe, and we, our insignificant motes, can't even get rid of the ripples. Looking at you and me looking at the pond, can't you imagine what the observer might be?"

Shirakawa stood up: "If the observer is in this position, then create some real world ......"

He grabbed a handful of sand stones and threw them into the pool: "It's just something like this." ”

“...... It's frustrating, Daddy. Ellie was silent for a moment: "According to this model, the openness of the single universe can be explained, accelerating expansion...... Dark energy can be understood as the 'potential energy' formed by the density of matter in the universe from dense to sparse, and the speed of the universe's expansion will gradually increase, but the acceleration may gradually decrease! Until the cosmic matter gathered at the edge of several open universes squeezes out a new singularity...... But what about entropy?...... Oh~ Heat death is something that closes the system, and if the system is open, its finality is also reflected in the partial......

In this way, for civilization, some old theories believe that the more idealized 'closed universe' is a dead end, and the open universe has a glimmer of life...... "But Daddy, you want to jump out of the ripples and into the pool, such a long time scale, I think, your company...... Most of the members couldn't hold on and eventually ......"

Her heartless voice finally had some sadness: "Our intellect will all die in eternal decay, leaving only the repetitive monotony of machinery, including Daddy, your people, your family, and even you...... There is also this possibility. ”

Bai He smiled: "So far away, what are you afraid of?"

"Nothing to be afraid of?"

"What's more, the time scale is ......" Bai He yawned: "As our 'existence' extends, its relative length will also become shorter, and in the blink of an eye, a civilization goes from birth to destruction, isn't it very emotional?"

"Dad, your tone is like 'oh ~ he was born, oh ~ he hung up', obviously there is no emotion at all. Ellie complained.

Bai He stopped talking, suddenly frowned, and stood up: "Okay, it's probably almost there." ”

"What?"

"No. 2, they have a little bit of an eyebrow to study the technology of dark energy loading information, relying on this, probably at the edge of the universe~ we can still maintain this 'existence'. Shirakha: "We're about to enter the company's cutting-edge technology"

"The diffusion zone at the edge of the universe~ It's just Dad, we can survive in dark energy, but what about after the great decomposition?

"Try it, it's still a long time. ”

Shirakawa repeated the phrase.

Is it really long, though?
