"The civilization of the gods cannot be defeated, this is good, really good." Levin said with a smile, smiling extraordinarily brightly.

"Thinking from a purely rational point of view, most of the civilizations and lives in the universe are dominated by that group of guys, and we will surely usher in destruction, and there is no point in survival, which is good."

"Yes, that's good, my goal now is to do everything I can to make trouble for those gods."

"There is no point in survival, then we have to find something meaningful to do, otherwise we will live our lives in vain."

A few civilization exchange officials have laid the tone for the spiritual and cultural development of human civilization in the future.

The Lord of the Rings: "Brave, but pointless, you pieces of paper can't beat even me, a little loser." ”

Among the several people, Song Huaidong, the highest-ranking person, asked, "Will you attack us?" ”

"No, I'm a graveyard, I'm dead, there is no dark forest between different dimensions, low-dimensional threats can't high-dimensional, and low-dimensional resources are useless to high-dimensional."

Everyone understands that this is a super artificial intelligence similar to Dawn, with the ability to learn, but not the ability to create, it is not a real life, and it is limited by the underlying logic.

The sociologist pointed to the surrounding ruins and asked a very tricky question: "You belong to the same dimension, why didn't the Dark War break out?" The puddle is slowly evaporating, whoever occupies more resources will be able to live longer, and there is hope for survival. ”

There was no answer, but just five seconds later, another four-dimensional civilization was inserted into the mental chat channel through the Source Realm.

Its name flashed rapidly, from gibberish freeze frame to Möbius ring and then simplified into ring.

"You can call me the Ring, the Cycle, everything is connected in the Cycle, and only by transcending the universe can it be possible to escape the Cycle."

"I'm still alive, but I won't live long, the three-dimensional puddle gradually becomes an absolute vacuum, and in a few years, the spaceship will not be able to get energy, and I will sleep forever."

Everyone greeted them: "Hello, Mr. Huan. ”

"Hello, I have observed you for a long time, according to your chronology, 769 years ago, a puddle of water crossed your home planet, and a female mind fell here, and in seven hundred years, you have become almost unrecognizable, and you have developed so fast."

"Oh, digression, the reason why there is no war is because after the fight, the survival time will be shortened, in fact, the entire universe is in such a state, the scale of the interstellar war in the universe is so large that you can't imagine, these war acts will increase the entropy of the universe, but the real ruler of the universe doesn't care, or rather, happy to see it, endless internal friction makes it difficult for low-level civilizations to have the power to threaten them, for them, the universe may be an ingenious inverse entropy perpetual motion machine, energy and matter can be recycled, of course, It's just a bug's humble opinion. ”

Physicists ask, "The theory of the collapse of the universe?" ”

"The universe is all ruins, theories are meaningless, we have to see the results, and the premise is that we can see the results."

"Anyway, I at least saw the result of the entire universe being lowered by one dimension."

"Then, the second reason, in fact, is the same as your thoughts, how can survival be as important as pleasure, we have worked all our lives to continue civilization, thousands of years, tens of thousands of years, intrigued with other civilizations for a lifetime, and have been taught the concept of survival above all else since childhood, and become a machine for the continuation of civilization..."

"There's no communication barrier here, even though no one has communicated."

"I don't know what they think, anyway, I'm tired of this kind of life, and now I rarely have hundreds of years of leisure to do what I love, and I don't want anyone to ruin it."

"They should think the same as me, did they see that telescope, he was looking at the stars, watching civilizations fight, and then laughing at them, did they see that mirror, they were appreciating themselves, they seemed to be a civilization that developed a culture of beauty, but after understanding the dark forest, they had to give up their unique beauty."

Following the hallucinatory arrows in their eyes, everyone saw two unique spaceships in the ruins.

Beauty? Mirror? Do you refract light, viewing angle?

"Survival is the biggest scam in the universe, it makes everything fight endlessly, you are lucky to have crossed the threshold of survival in the first place, now, before you die, enjoy yourself."

Sociologists agree: "Indeed, mere survival is meaningless, and if the pursuit of a civilization and an intelligent life is only survival, it is no different from a beast." ”

"Most animals in nature do not have the concept of pleasure, rather than pursuing meaningless survival, it is better to spend the rest of their lives pursuing what they like, at least to reap happiness, human beings have enough productivity to support this, but it is not enough."

For example, small spaceships, single-person interstellar voyages, human civilization does not have this technology and ability.

"Mr. Huan, can you hand over your civilized culture and technology to us? We are willing to be the living tombstone of your civilization and pass on the history of your civilization until the extinction of humanity. ”

Huan laughed, it was a cheerful laugh, "The little worm wants to carry a big mountain? ”

"The four-dimensional technology is useless to you, you can only see one side of the three dimensions of the four-dimensional culture, the words engraved on the tombstone are incomplete, the meaning is unknown, I would rather not have this tombstone."

The ring disappears from the channel, and the exchange ends.

The crowd exchanged ideas for a while, trying to ask the Lord of the Rings a crucial question: "Will civilization attack here?" ”

The Lord of the Rings: "No, in another 55 years, the puddle will dry up completely, and we will be destroyed." ”

"Before the destruction, we were still four-dimensional, and the weapons that could attack us were only four-dimensional or higher, and even the cheapest three-dimensional weapons were expensive for three-dimensional civilizations."

Three-way body? Dimensionality reduction weapons?

"No one wants to waste expensive weapons to kill a group of mortal debris, and you are safe for the time being, because no civilization wants to go near a puddle for fear of being attacked by a mad fish in the water."

Everyone leaned over slightly and thanked us, this information was crucial, "Are you willing to pass on your Creator's culture and technology to us?" ”

"I'm dead, I don't have permission, goodbye, next time I come, bring some gifts, I like fish."

After returning to the fleet, Song Huaidong directly uploaded the source boundary data recorded by the aircraft's computer to make a virtual world.

A few days later, Starlink decided that, for the sake of safety, the fleet would continue its voyage in batches after fifteen years.

At the same time, the direction of development of technology was determined, the study of self-replicating nanorobots in the microscopic field, especially in the application of technology, because the compatriots on the blue star need huge productivity.
