The memories of the ancient "Far Travelers" who remained here have already made it clear.

On this "beacon of immortality" are individuals who have completed "synthetic evolution", but they are also excluded individuals.

The current "far-travelers" are those who did not choose this path in the past.

“…… It's no wonder that the current 'Far Traveler' is still using electronic implants, and it doesn't seem to have much generational difference with the galaxy, it turns out that there have been differences before......" Li Wenyuan sighed with some emotion.

It is clear that the ancient "Far Travelers" are not ready to abandon the flesh they have been using, and even fear and even loathe it. Their social philosophy has not kept pace with the pace of technological progress.

Eventually, these individuals who embarked on the path of "synthetic evolution" fell victim to it.

Judging by the number of mental networks and memories left in this ruined data repository, only a million fires were preserved in the end.

This number is too small for an interstellar civilization, but fortunately, they have completed the "synthetic evolution", and it is not difficult to restore the population, but it will take time.

So Li Wenyuan continued to check the content of his memories while extracting these thought networks and memories.

He was ready to reawaken these ancient "travelers", the content of the memory was invisible, and he could feel the sense of mission and nobility of these "synthetic evolutionary" individuals.

They really want to keep moving forward and not indulge in a life of luxury. As they say, "Even if it takes billions of years, they want to follow in the footsteps of the Apocalypse." ”

At this moment, they found their remaining spark here, and Li Wenyuan happened to have a suitable mechanical body to help them recover, this may be the will of heaven.

And in the process of checking these memories, Li Wenyuan also knew some stories from ancient times.

For example, the "Far Travelers" may have been inspired by humans when they were just born with Psychics.

By the time they came to their senses, the planet was highly developed, and it took them a long time to get used to this high-tech life and explore the starry sky with curiosity.

They thought they were special, but unfortunately there were many civilizations in the universe at that time with human intervention, and they were not the only ones.

Naturally, war and peace between civilizations were born. In the process, Li Wenyuan saw a somewhat familiar species.

“…… Isn't that 'Watchmen'? ”

It was indeed the main species of the "Watchmen", but at that time they had not improved their bodies by various means, and they looked quite different from the current "Watchmen".

Then the "Far Traveler" and the "Watchman" had friction and even war because of various conceptual issues.

They have won and lost each other, but no one can help the other, maybe Liang Zi was formed at that time.

At that time, they were extremely powerful and advanced in their productive forces, and the speed at which they could build warships was extraordinary, and there were even cases where they were stumbling in one galaxy.

After comparing it with the ancient battlefield discovered before, Li Wenyuan confirmed that it was the same galaxy.

They fought a lot there, and for a very special reason, they were arguing about who was the true successor of the "Apocalypse".

It was also after this great war that a group of people in the "Far Travelers" decided to take the path of "synthetic evolution", wanting to make civilization go further, so as to hit the "watchmen" at that time.

After combing through the content of the memory, although Li Wenyuan has gained something, he has more questions.

At this time, the extraction of these mental networks and memories has been basically completed, and he is ready to leave here, while starting to revive these "ancient travelers", and at the same time, according to the content of the memory, go to other places to explore.

Because he found that some of the contents of the memory were very different from the current galaxy, the most obvious of which was that the current "Far Traveler" had already moved.

At one time, their borders were not where they are now, and even their home planet was completely different.

The current home planet of the "Far Traveler" is an "ideal city" planet called "Source of Knowledge", which can be said to be a completely artificial planet after being transformed.

Its surface is already covered in steel, and there is no natural landscape at all. All the spaces are utilized, and numerous clusters of buildings are perfectly zoned under a planned construction, each with a different function.

Even though such an "ideal city" planet is very fascinating, according to the records in the memory, the former "Far Traveler" has three ring worlds!

Even though there is already one "Immortal Lighthouse" that has been completely destroyed, there are still two worlds left named "Infinite Lighthouse" and "Immortal Lighthouse" respectively.

Why did they give up such a blessed environment and move the whole country to where it is now?

After completing the extraction work, Li Wenyuan's scientific research spacecraft quickly left here, and at the same time, there were scientific research spaceships in other locations, according to the records of the memory, rushed to the "Infinite Lighthouse" ring world and the "Immortal Lighthouse" ring world.

The rest of the explorers of other civilizations who were still carefully testing the Shattered Ring World also noticed the departure of this "guardian" scientific research spaceship, and immediately showed indescribable expressions.

This situation is nothing more than two speculations: either the "guardians" have found nothing here, or the "guardians" have already gained something and there is no need to stay here any longer.

The explorers looked at each other, and then quickly leaned over to the place where the Guardian had stayed, trying to see if they could find something to discover.

So while they were still competing for the most advantageous position, one of Li Wenyuan's scientific research spaceships had already come to the "Immortal Lighthouse" around the world.

“…… Sure enough, it was also bombed. ”

As he expected, the "inextinguishable lighthouse" around the world was also extremely seriously damaged, and Li Wenyuan also felt that only this kind of complete destruction could allow the "Far Travelers" to relocate the whole country.

But the damage to this world is much worse than that of the "Immortal Lighthouse".

When exploring the "Immortal Lighthouse", he could still see many large pieces of the Ring World fragments, but even the "Immortal Lighthouse" Ring World in front of him was blown into small pieces.

Almost all the buildings on the surface have been razed, making it difficult to find any remnants.

"Then the 'Infinite Lighthouse' should not be spared...... The three worlds were bombed, and even the whole clan had to live in another place...... what happened to the 'Far Wanderer'? ”

Confused, his ship began to scan the debris of the Ring World, hoping to find something.

Although this place was completely destroyed, after all, the area of the ring world is too huge, and there are still traces of the past in some places.

He was fortunate enough to find the remains of several robots in a collapsed cavern, but unlike the robots on the Immortal Lighthouse who chose to "synthesize and evolve".

These robots are more like the robot attendants used by the current "Far Travelers", a simple robot that is not even a smart machine.

They also appear to be carrying weapons, and judging by their posture, they are supposed to be fighting before they stop down.

Li Wenyuan experimentally connected to the ports of several robots, but found that they were so damaged that they did not even leave any records.

In the end, only a little useful information was extracted from the relatively well-preserved wreckage of the robot.

It was a video record, and although it had been distorted over time, it was still barely recognizable.

The background is probably in this ring world, which has not been seriously damaged at that time, and a large amount of flickering light can be seen in the background of the picture.

The audio of this long-ago video has been lost, and Li Wenyuan can only guess that it was the light produced by the explosion.

In addition, you can see a large number of warships flying over the Rim of the World, as if they are rushing to a certain place.

The style of these warships is almost identical to that of the current "Far Traveler", except for some differences in the details and ends.

But they don't take on the form of a cluster of battleships as they normally would, but have the feeling of being on their way to the front, as if they had just been produced in the dockyard and headed for the front line.

And then soon, Li Wenyuan understood why.

At first, you can still see the battleships flying into the distance, but gradually, they begin to appear to be destroyed halfway, as if the front line of the war has advanced around the world.

Later, the battleship appeared less and less in the picture, and even as soon as it appeared in the sky, it was completely destroyed by a beam of light from afar.

Until the end, it was no longer even possible to see the battleship, only the beams of light in the sky were still intertwined.

At this moment, the front line of the war has spread to the Ringworld, and the "Far Traveler" and an unknown enemy have engaged in a fierce battle over the Ringworld.

But Li Wenyuan already knew the result in advance, and in the end it would definitely end in the defeat of the "Far Traveler", because the world had already exploded.

“…… What could it be? Isn't even the 'Far Wanderer' an opponent at all? Thinking about this, he suddenly remembered a piece of information that he had dug up on the ruins of the earth before.

[Document N027: First Stress Resistance Test]

[After countless simulations in the virtual world, we have finally decided to trigger a controlled crisis in the real galaxy to test whether the civilization formed under our cramming will be able to resist the impending threat]

【……】

This numbered document mentions that humanity has triggered an "artificial crisis" in order to test the resilience of galactic civilization.

As a direct result of this crisis, most of the civilizations that humanity has improved have regressed directly to the indigenous era, and only a few remain capable of interstellar travel.

“…… Could it be、Actually, it's the 'crisis' caused by human beings, the world that exploded, right? ”

The more Li Wenyuan thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, and at the same time he had a feeling that he didn't know what to say.

He felt that human beings were really "chaotic" enough, and he personally raised a group of civilizations, and then personally defeated them back to their original form.

The footage of the robot's wreckage was interrupted for a while, as if it had been disturbed by something, and when it was restored, the sky was no longer full of colors, and all that remained was wolf smoke.

In the footage, the bright light representing the explosion is constantly flickering, and the frequency is getting higher and brighter.

The recorded images also shook numerous times, and it was clear that the shock from the explosion had spread to the area, and it seemed to represent an imminent threat.

Seeing this scene, Li Wenyuan understood that the record was estimated to end here, and he only hoped that this robot could give some strength and save the "threat" appearance.

According to his understanding of human beings, this "crisis" caused by human beings will definitely not be directly realized by human beings with their own warships, but will most likely be disguised according to the "threat" they have encountered, creating a plausible "threat".

It looks like it's still under human control.

With the help of the video recording, he will know what the so-called "threat" looks like, so that he can pay attention to it in advance.

Soon, the vibration became more and more violent, and the robot seemed to be unable to maintain its balance until the last moment, when an explosion caused by something unknown blew the robot into the sky,

In the whirlwind of the picture, Li Wenyuan finally caught a glimpse of the "threat" in a few frames.

It was something that might have been considered a battleship, and at first glance he even thought it was a floating structure.

There are not many of them, but they all show a peculiar posture without exception.

At first glance, they look like a large pyramid structure, and although there is no air resistance in the universe, the battleship can be built in any way, but this special shape is still very eye-catching.

No weapons were visible on their surfaces, but beams of light were brewing in those conical structures, which seemed to be attacks from these places.

When the robot falls back to the ground, the scene ends, and the results are already obvious.

“…… I see, those things that look like thorn balls should be the specific individual appearance of the 'threat', and even if they are not, they must have a lot to do with it......"

Li Wenyuan made a certain amount of artistic processing of the special spaceship images in the record, and then sent a mission related to it to the entire galaxy.

The reward was still a small fleet of Lost Empires, which he believed would attract the enthusiasm of other civilizations.

After all, this thing seems to be able to pose a "threat" to the entire galaxy, and he also needs to use the power of the galaxy.

It is not expected that other civilizations can really find the "threat", but as long as there is a little clue, it can be very useful.

“…… So, is this what happened to the Far Traveler? A lost empire that expelled some of its compatriots and retreated to its current position in a 'crisis'...... They may be about to forget this history. ”

He felt like he had another insight into the lost empire of the Far Traveler.

"In that case, what happened to the other Lost Empires to become what they are now?"

Thinking so, he looked at the Lost Empire in the star chart, which happened to be in four opposing positions.

He now knows more about the "Far Traveler" and the "Watchman", but he knows almost nothing about the "Observer" and the "Silent One".

Judging from this past history, I am afraid that they also had a terrible experience.

“…… It's really a galaxy that has been chaotic since a long time ago......"
