Chapter 316: Star Beast (4)
Zero decides to engrave these symbols into his mind, either by studying them himself or by giving them to Asgard. These steles, as if hiding a secret. That secret, Zero's instinct told him, must be closely related to the planet that humans inhabit.
Perhaps it was a message from a previous civilization, or a visitor from outer space. Who knows.
With zero of his brain's ability to process data, all the symbols on the thirteen stone tablets would only take up a small part of his brain's information storage space. Zero didn't even think about remembering these things, but rather how long he should store them. After thinking about it, he set a time.
100 years.
This is a relatively ample period of time, and even if Zero still can't solve the secrets of words after a hundred years, he can completely transfer these things from his brain with equipment for future generations to study.
After setting the time limit, he concentrated on looking at the stone tablet in front of him. Strange things happened when the first symbols took shape in his mind, and a lot of information was released from those symbols. The information is aggregated and processed by the zero brain, and then turned into countless images.
How did the universe come to be?
In the old days, this was an unsolvable proposition. Most scientists believe that the universe was formed by a Big Bang. At the beginning of the universe, for the first 300,000 years after the birth of space-time, the universe was opaque. As protons and electrons combine to form atoms, radiation can pass freely, and an observable universe is formed.
So, what about before the Big Bang?
Someone has made the assumption that all the matter and energy in the universe is concentrated in a fairly dense ball, which is very hot, and it explodes to form the universe, so where does this ball come from? How did it come to be?
In this way, the problem is back to square one. Humanity has no way of explaining the origin of the universe, and the question is like the question of whether there is a chicken and then an egg, or an egg and then a chicken.
It wasn't until 1920 that quantum science was introduced. Scientists began to study the formation of the universe through quantum science, and in 1980, an American physicist Alan Gusi made a series of demonstrations for the formation of the universe through the application of quantum science, and Zuihou got a theory.
The universe is not how it was formed, but it always existed that way. There is neither a beginning nor an end, the universe is eternal.
This theory was later called the Gusi theory. And for its research, confirmation and supplementation are still ongoing. Until the advent of a new era, the earth has undergone earth-shaking changes.
Now, Zero sees the origin of the universe, or pre-cosmic era.
The so-called pre-cosmic epoch is the epoch that preceded the universe as we knew it. The universe is eternal, yet ever-changing at the same time. The last epoch took place in an incalculably distant time, and this epoch is not yet at the end of the end, and the next epoch is very far away. Far away beyond all human thoughts, as if it would never come.
In pre-cosmic times, the universe was not what it is now. It is a brilliant sea of light, where energy and matter seem to be gathered by invisible hands, and the universe is narrow at this time. But narrowness is also relative, and in terms of area, it is still equivalent to how many galaxies there are now. It was a time of tranquility, where energy and radiation were moving at an unbelievably slow pace.
Until one day, a tiny particle has a negligible self-detonation. But it blew itself up at a critical point, triggering the energy of the entire universe. At this time, the energy moves like a rapidly rotating gear, and when the speed exceeds a critical value, the gear jumps out of its original position, and the big bang happens.
The energy explosion that shocked Zero beyond measure, the devastating energy that exploded like hundreds of millions of nuclear bombs exploded through the invisible shackles at the edge of the universe. Countless energies and matter were projected into the endless void at terrifying speeds, and the universe was like a giant stretching out its body, from narrow to incomparably wider.
Countless beams of energy and all sorts of matter flew across Zero's feet and around his body. The spectacle was so spectacular that Zero couldn't breathe, and he looked at the space with incalculable bands of light. At this moment, the universe is alive and well.
It took an unknown number of thousands of years before the Big Bang became quiet. Energy and matter are converging, and they form planets in the shadows. Nebulae are formed between planets, and nebulae converge into vast galaxies. The vast galaxies lie across the curtain of the universe, and there is dark matter between them that invisibly connects them, without the collapse of the galaxies due to the speed of the planets' own movements.
On these planets, Zero sees all sorts of strange life. At this moment, he is like the Creator, and he is looking at the entire universe from the perspective of a spectator. In the eyes of Zero, life on the planet is born and extinguished, and life replacement is constantly going on. Human beings are not lonely in the universe, and the vast universe is not only suitable for life.
Just to reach the level of interstellar communication, the current scientific and technological civilization of human beings is still very backward. However, before the advent of humanity, there were already very powerful races of life in some galaxies, which built a space fleet sufficient to travel between galaxies, and began to explore the existence of other galaxies in the universe.
It can be said that the distribution of galaxies in the universe is not uniform. Zero suddenly saw the scene in front of him stretch rapidly, and in an instant he was already far away from the previous galaxy I don't know how many light years before the scene was fixed.
The universe here is lonely and dark, not at all as lively as the galaxy Zero just saw. On the dark blue cosmic curtain, only a few dispensable planets appear sporadically. The number of planets is so small that they can't even form nebulae, let alone galaxies.
On these planets, there is almost no dead silence. Only a dark red planet appeared on a group of unique life forms, they looked like giant fire ants, but their bodies were covered with compound eyes, with chelicerae, and a body length of ten meters. These things are the only life on the planet, and they inhabit the vicinity of the core, feeding on the energy of the Earth's core. 100,000 years after the emergence of this life, the planet's energy has been nearly depleted.
Zero was now in the center of the earth, and he could clearly see that the magma in the vines was drying up, it was the blood of the planet, and now it was disappearing. So the planet begins to sink inward, and if there is no accident, the planet will eventually collapse and die out of itself. It can even form a huge gravitational field, known as a black hole.
However, the unexpected happened.
The life that lives on the planet is not willing to die, and in order to gain the right to continue to live, they have undergone a crazy evolution.
Engulf.
Countless monster ants are constantly devouring their own kind, using their genes to complement and upgrade themselves. Finally, they were done before the planet was completely destroyed. All the monster ants on the planet have disappeared, and they have evolved from countless individuals to a single life.
This super life is freed from the shackles of ** and exists in the form of energy. It was a pitch-black mass of energy, like a dark cloud, but large enough to cover a star. Life in this form of energy, which also feeds on energy, leaves its collapsing home planet and moves to a nearby planet. Countless black pillars of clouds are separated from the body, and the pillars of clouds penetrate deep into the core of the planet, continuously absorbing the energy of the planet into one's body.
It is like a wild beast that preys on a frantically, and wherever it passes, life is extinct. And this thing is the terrifying lifeform that Zero saw in the instrument records of the ancient humans in the hexapplane. Until this moment, Zero did not know its origin.
This is a terrifying monster that devours life, planets, and even galaxies!
