Chapter 51: The Stargate Opens
What's behind the "Distant Stargate"?
This is undoubtedly the most curious point.
"At present, it seems that a second "distant stargate" has not been found in the galaxy, but it should not be possible for the "gatebuilder" to build only one. ”
Li Wenyuan believes that there should be many places in the galaxy like this, and there should be many places in the galaxy like this, waiting for others to discover it like a treasure.
But whether it is a "treasure" behind it or not, we still need to wait for the door to open to know.
In galactic society, the previously published mission of the "Guardian" has been taken down, apparently because a civilization has already completed this task.
Although the adventurers of other civilizations are unwilling, they can only give up for the time being, waiting for the emergence of new missions.
And some civilizations are trying to find out which civilization has completed the "guardian" task, and they are also trying to continue to find the kind of "special stargate" that the "guardian" is searching for.
After all, this kind of thing is not the same as "strange creatures", and it is useful for most civilizations.
Even if it's not for the task, it's a quick track to great benefits.
So in the follow-up collection process, there are really some civilizations that have found other "special star gates" through the clues provided by adventurers who have given up searching.
In the territory of the Mingbo Technology Dictatorship, some scholars are debating whether to find a way to destroy this kind of stargate.
As a typical representative of the academic dictatorship, the top scientists of the Mingbo Technology Dictatorship have a supreme position.
It is clear that something that can cause them to argue is not a trivial matter.
One of the scholars said bitterly: "We have finally found a masterless stargate, how can we give up such a good thing because of some words? What does the report of the crisis assessment say? ”
"It's not out yet, but I believe the threat rate will definitely exceed 50%. Our archaeological discoveries prove that those words are not unfounded, and we need to destroy them before the stargates are opened! ”
Another objected and insisted on destroying the "special stargate".
As a top archaeologist, he led a team that discovered some kind of prophecy on a planet that may be related to those "special star gates".
It is a planet that once had a civilization, and it existed for a very long time.
Judging by the traces left behind, that civilization had more advanced technology than the indigenous people before it went into space.
Their species has a special ability to empathize and can form a strong civilizational cohesion under conscious guidance.
If it can continue to this day, I am afraid that it will be on par with the Lost Empire.
However, in the subsequent archaeological process, the archaeologists of Mingbo found that this civilization was destroyed by some kind of "prophecy".
Eschatologists in civilization believe that sooner or later a huge "gray storm" will sweep across the universe and destroy everything in its path.
Then this civilizational capacity for empathy has a devastating effect.
It is unknown who started it first, but some individuals began to worship this "doomsday" fanatically, and gradually spread like a plague to all individuals.
Entire civilization soon descended into a fanatical belief in a "doomsday" that never came, causing all individuals to self-destruct in just a few months.
And just like that, one of the probably oldest species disappeared into a "prophecy".
Of course, such specious archaeological discoveries alone could not have attracted the attention of the archaeological leaders of Mingbo.
The most important thing is that they really found that kind of "gray storm" on a planet near a special stargate.
It was a swarm of nanobots, and even though they had fallen into a dead state for some unknown reason, the horrific group of nanobots had destroyed half the planet.
According to the simulation of the restoration map, the group of nanorobots formed a "storm" in the process of continuous devouring and self-replication, and no grass grew in their passes.
As a result, it is very likely that the special stargate that is related to this "nanostorm" has attracted attention.
Now, Mingbo's scholars are divided into two factions about whether or not to keep this star gate.
One faction believes that a stargate with a high probability of forming a network is an unattainable resource, which is extremely useful for both trade and scientific research, and cannot be abandoned because of some stories under the dust.
The other group insists that behind the "special stargate" are the terrifying nanobot swarm, and that in the context of the stargate opening sooner or later, it must be destroyed to stop the possible threat of nanobots.
They are still waiting for an outcome if the threat report of the "Crisis Assessment Agency" exceeds 50%, then they will choose to destroy the stargate according to the principle of the minority obeying the majority.
It wasn't long before a threatening report with "dictator" news became known to the scholars in the debate.
“…… The threat level is indeed greater than 50%...... But the Chief Scientist told us not to care about it, he thought that there was something special about the stargate that could be found by the 'guardians'......"
The scholars who heard the news looked at each other and eventually had to stop their arguments according to the results.
At this time, Li Wenyuan, who controlled a "distant star gate", was also at the end of the decryption process.
Somewhat unexpectedly, the end of the decryption process was not a difficult complication, but a problem from the "builders".
[We are the Concord of Desanu, and we are glad that there are civilizations in this interstellar area that have found this place and progressed to this point]
[I don't know how many traces of the outside world are left about us, but since you have chosen this door, it means that you are also very interested in the secrets behind it]
[We need to say it in front, it may be a gift behind it, or it may be some not-so-good threat]
[Are you sure you have access to this secret?] 】
[Yes, or no]
The decryption process came to a halt at this point, and it was obvious that the choice of whether to open this "distant stargate" or not was to be made.
It is difficult to understand the mentality of the "gate-builders" when they built this stargate, they seem to want civilization to open it, and to a large extent do not want it to be opened.
This contradictory mentality also made Li Wenyuan think.
He was comparing whether his current strength was worthy of the requirement of opening the "Distant Star Gate", and the "Gate Builder Research" that he had spent a long time studying in a circular manner could not have been wasted before.
“…… Although the number of my fleet is still small, the quality is quite high, and the general civilization is not at all an opponent. The 'mega dockyard' is also nearing completion, and my production capacity will reach a new level. I also have a 'Sky Veil Battleship' that I can use as a hole card, so I should be able to witness the world behind the door with my own eyes. ”
Thinking about it, Li Wenyuan chose "yes", which also caused this "distant star gate" to fall into a short silence.
The floating stargate structure slowly opened, and the huge body was rejuvenated after a long time.
No sound could be heard in the vacuum, but looking at the dark green light gradually gathering in the center of the star gate, Li Wenyuan seemed to be able to hear the roar of a giant building starting.
The structure of the stargate is stretched to its maximum, and a huge amount of energy is also instilled into the core position in the process.
With the sudden dissipation of dark green light, a small "black hole" formed in the stargate.
Compared with the real black hole behind it, this "black hole" seems very small, but Li Wenyuan understands that the secret behind it is about to be revealed.
