Chapter 276: Discovered?

"Variable terminal?"

Li Wenyuan's first reaction was to wonder about the type of artificial intelligence planet.

Unlike the "observation terminal" and the "purification terminal", which are basically passive planetary machines, the "variable terminal" sounds like a very active planetary machine.

What is a variable? Variables create uncertainty in the outcome.

The universe is not constant, and there will always be some unknown X that creates something new here.

This "variable terminal" in front of you seems to be like this, perhaps the civilization that created this planetary machine feels that the world of this "dark forest" is too boring, and needs a little "stimulation" to breathe new life into it.

As for the final outcome of those civilizations that are forced out of the "dark forest" under the crisis of life and death, it is not something they will care about.

And after continuing to read the information of this "variable terminal", Li Wenyuan also understood what it was used for.

【Variable Terminal】

[Introduction: Planetary machines used to bring variables to immutable observations can adjust the focus of "variables" as needed, or make them completely random, becoming a "variable" in a complete sense]

In layman's terms, this is a large machine that performs the process according to the purpose for which it was built.

It could be an extinction battery if needed, unconditionally cleaning up all the surrounding galaxies of life; It can also be the enlightener of the galaxy, bringing knowledge and resources to life.

Everything lies in the "variables" that it was originally set.

However, the "variable terminal" in front of him is extremely special, it has been artificially modified, the original set "variable" has been deviated, and it has begun to perform a task far from the original purpose - inexplicable entertainment.

He was sure that this was not the work of humans, as no human traces had been found on the planetary machine, and there had been no special reaction to him.

The transformation method is also different from that of humans, it is more "backward", and you can even see some ancient welding methods on some metals.

It seems that a certain civilization in this galaxy has "localized" this alien planetary machine to make it more suitable for their use needs.

"Is it the Galactic Empire that may have existed in this galaxy that did it? But in any case, the civilization that built this planetary machine is at least 1.7 billion years old......"

There are very few records stored in the "variable terminal", and the entire AI planet spends most of its time working to achieve "variables", leaving only a million-year-long work record except for basic information.

However, the writing habits and sentences used are similar to those of the "observation terminal", which Li Wenyuan believes is left by the same civilization.

A civilization that has existed for at least 1.7 billion years must have a profound heritage when you think about it.

“…… It's no coincidence that this civilization will return here again after the humans have left, leaving this planetary machine behind, and they will most likely find out what humans are doing here......"

"So, is it the hyperspace channel they destroyed? With such a profound civilization, it may not be difficult to destroy hyperspace...... But why do this? ”

Li Wenyuan couldn't figure out why that civilization destroyed hyperspace, but after that, he remembered another thing.

"Speaking of which, the traces of the transformation of this planetary machine are more like the work of a less mature civilization, which is far from the civilization that made the planetary machine."

"Since the other party can find and control this 'variable terminal' to some extent, is the 'observation terminal' also under their control?"

A sense of urgency arose with this speculation, and just like the previous "Ellipse Galaxy Alpha", it is likely that his arrival was under the watchful eye of others in the first place.

Although it was one of his purposes to find the possible "observation terminals" of each galaxy, no one would like to be in this situation of being monitored by others all the time.

“…… I thought that the civilizations here were in a state where they could not exceed the speed of light, and there was no possibility of controlling the 'observation terminal', but I didn't expect that there was still something missing......"

"After dealing with this matter, we have to find a way to make a mobile 'confidential' project to solve this problem...... 'curtain' is good."

The spacecraft quickly dispersed from the galaxy where the "variable terminal" was located, and the interstellar exploration process that Li Wenyuan had been carrying out began to accelerate.

This time, due to the unique structure of its spiral arms, the spiral galaxy cannot maximize the information of the galaxy by placing sentinel arrays at a certain node.

In order to fully obtain the situation of this galaxy, the number of sentinel arrays he needed to arrange was much higher than that of the previous galaxy, and the directions were different.

Considering that even if the "Sentinel Array Group" composed of Sentinel Arrays achieved the purpose of monitoring the entire galaxy, it would take him a lot of time to find the exact location of the "observation terminal".

So the "Prophetic Interface" obtained from the "Ascension" civilization came in handy.

“…… If you think about it this way, the 'Ascendant's 'Prophetic Interface' is also a 'planetary machine' to some extent, right? ”

Looking at the "prophetic interface" in front of him that had changed from a crystal planet back to a fleshy planet due to the exhaustion of spiritual energy, Li Wenyuan had this idea for no reason.

He also packed the "Prophetic Interface" planet of the "Ascendant" and made some mechanized modifications to make it no longer so difficult to use his "mechanical life".

And this use is also to find the location of the "observation terminal" here, and he also wants to test this magical prediction ability that seems to be able to "infer cause from effect" again.

After injecting a large piece of synthetic psionic energy into the "Preview Interface", it once again transformed into a "Crystal Ball Celestial Body", and soon shot out a guiding beam of light with an unknown destination.

The information contained in this spillover light is extremely complex and takes a lot of time to parse, which seems to indicate that the "observation terminal" is located far away.

But as long as he can find a place, it will be a good thing for Li Wenyuan.

He knew that humans would definitely leave something behind in the "observation terminal", and the civilization that had transformed these artificial intelligence planets, as well as the ultra-ancient civilization that was at least 1.7 billion years old, he believed that he could also learn something through this search.

As a result, his spaceship began to leap between galaxies in large numbers, further expanding the scope of exploration, and at the same time searching for the hidden secrets of this galaxy.

But at this time, the high-level of a certain "fallen civilization" in this galaxy fell into a panic at this time.

"It's broken, there seems to be something abnormal in the 'entertainment terminal', have our little moves been discovered?"

Some were terrified, as if they felt that their end had come.

But there are also those who become angry under extreme fear, and as soon as they are angry, they say:

"Panic what! There is absolutely no way that arrogant 'recorders' will notice such a small thing! There must be some ignorant civilization that has touched the defenses there......"

"Wait for the report of the 'observation terminal', I want to see ......" The expression on the face of the person who had just spoken became more and more hideous, and he did not hide the malice in his heart.

“…… Who would dare to disturb our entertainment......"
