The road to technology

Chapter 212 The Warehouse of the Lost Civilization

"What kind of civilization can do such a thing!" Yue Yuanzhou clicked his tongue, although he was a little surprised, but the complaints contained in his tone did account for the majority.

"It's truly breathtaking!"

Compared to Yue Yuanzhou, Carl, who finally couldn't sit still at the Death Song Academy, was really surprised. He even forgot how many times he had expressed emotion since following Yue Yuanzhou.

Now he feels that this kind of life is simply wonderful, compared to before in the Styx galaxy, it is much richer now.

"Is this civilization a dwarf star lover?" Even Ah Zhui couldn't help complaining.

Yes, what is displayed in front of Yue Yuanzhou and the others is a dozen red dwarfs emitting faint light. Although it is said to be faint light, the surface temperature of brown dwarfs is about 3000 degrees Celsius.

In fact, there are many dwarf stars in this small universe. Under the light of the four faintly shining red dwarf stars, they hung high in the night sky like ghost corpses, lined up neatly in rows.

Yue Yuanzhou looked at these planets in silence. He knew that those dark gaseous planets that did not emit light must have been brown dwarfs. In fact, as a celestial body with the largest mass and only ten times the mass of Jupiter, it is not easy to detect. The faintest objects in the world are not real stars, they are not massive enough to burn deuterium, and there is no nuclear fusion reaction to keep the stars glowing for billions of years.Its discharge time will not be longer than 1 million years.Therefore, the brown dwarf will eventually cool and grow old, becoming a dark gaseous planet that does not emit light.

These short-lived brown dwarfs should have been used by this unknown civilization to collide with each other to create stars, but for some unknown reason they were not used, so now they are all dead dark gaseous planets.

The distance between each of them is only three or four astronomical units. They are so close together but they did not collide with each other due to gravity. Yue Yuanzhou knew that this must be a problem with the equipment around them. He could guess the function of these equipment at a glance. Out it is, the gravitational shield.

Yue Yuanzhou roughly estimated that in this small universe, excluding the four burning red dwarfs, there are about 9000 other planets that have died.

Among these more than 9000 planets, only a small part are the corpses of brown dwarfs, that is, smaller dark gaseous planets, and most of them are corpses of red dwarfs. These red dwarf corpses are actually dark gaseous planets. From their size, it can be seen that these relatively large ones are the corpses of red dwarfs.

Red dwarfs, generally this kind of stars have a minimum lifetime of more than [-] billion years, and can even reach [-] billion years, and this red dwarf, which was stuffed into the small universe and arranged neatly, also died.

Only the four red dwarfs are still alive, but Yue Yuanzhou, who has the star drive technology, knows from their spectrum analysis that their fuel is almost exhausted and they are dying.

"This looks like a warehouse of a civilization! A warehouse of a lost civilization!"

Even though the stars in this small universe are all dead, it is not difficult to believe that they were still shining at that time. More than 8000 red dwarfs were quietly suspended to illuminate this small universe under the working of the gravitational shielding device. Thousands of unused brown dwarfs.

It is not difficult to imagine that if the four red dwarfs run out of fuel by then, those gravitational shielding devices will stop working because there is no energy supply. At that time, the planets here will all collide due to gravity. The huge gravitational force is enough to make They create black holes and send this tiny universe into the arms of death.

Yue Yuanzhou can now imagine that the way this civilization transports stars seems to be driven only by space technology plus curvature, because if they have space storage technology, they don't need to arrange them so neatly.

"1.2 light-years!" Yue Yuanzhou is now sideways, which is the diameter of the small universe that is used as a warehouse.

Just when Yue Yuanzhou was feeling emotional, a quantum signal was sent to him near the four red dwarf stars that had not been extinguished in this small universe.

Seeing this, Yue Yuanzhou frowned: "Is there anyone?"

Probably not, how could there be people in this kind of warehouse that has turned into a star grave.As Yue Yuanzhou thought so, his probe spacecraft was already approaching the source of the signal.

At this time, the signal source sends out another electromagnetic wave signal, which is also the same broadcast signal.

Yue Yuanzhou understands, it should be because he is afraid that he will not have the ability of quantum communication?

Because it was a broadcast signal, Yue Yuanzhou quickly understood the meaning of this broadcast, which probably read: Welcome to the small universe of XXX civilization, an unknown future civilization.

This XXX was caused by Yue Yuanzhou's failure to decipher this civilized language, and most of the other ones were also guessed by him based on the plain code.

However, this language barrier did not make Yue Yuanzhou wait too long, because this signal has sent a bunch of messages in his own civilized language from now on.So it didn't take long for Yue Yuanzhou to have a real dialogue with this civilization.

"Hello unknown civilization, welcome to the small universe of degenerate civilization! Don't be nervous, I'm just an artificial intelligence of our civilization."

The artificial intelligence spoke on its own.

"You are lucky to have found the gate of our great degenerate civilization in the big universe, and you were able to solve the puzzles we set, which shows that you already have quite powerful computers."

The degenerate civilization here was also named by Yue Yuanzhou for his own convenience when he translated it. In fact, according to what this warehouse intelligent computer said, it should be a beautiful green planet civilization. Since the name is too long, it is related to the universe in which this civilization lives. Yue Yuanzhou changed it for him in this way.

"I'm curious about how intelligent your artificial intelligence is!" Yue Yuanzhou said casually about what the artificial intelligence said.

He has now confirmed that this is an artificial intelligence, because the soul detection did not show that it has signs of life.And it doesn't know how it got in at all. It seems that its arrival triggered some life detection mechanism, which made the artificial intelligence wake up.

"I can answer everything our civilization knows, including the truth of this universe!"

This artificial intelligence didn't wait for Yue Yuanzhou to ask questions, it continued to speak on its own: "In order to prevent you from falling and perishing like our civilization after hearing the truth of the universe, please listen to me to talk about our civilization and this small universe first. "

"According to the time given to me by the system, it has been 200 billion years since the end of our civilization. It seems that you are late, and the resources in our warehouse are already decayed. Even if my system is not maintained regularly, I am afraid that I will It has long since expired, and now there are only these four red dwarfs left here, and those star energy were originally given to civilizations who are destined to enter this place."

"My creator hopes that the civilization born from this universe can rely on these energy sources to develop, and not be destroyed by the dark prospect of civilization's psychological defenses, and not fall into the same ending as us. Unfortunately, it seems that time has destroyed everything."

"Our great civilization was born in a dark universe. At that time, the universe was already very dark. We used to think that the darkness was the whole universe, and the star that gave birth to our civilization was the only one in the world. By chance, we observed the collision of two brown dwarfs, and a brand new star was born."

"At that time, our civilization had been born for 3000 million years. From that moment on, we began to recognize the stars that gave birth to us with a new perspective, and began to study the evolution of stars, so we were surprised to find that red dwarfs are not all stars."

"Since then, we have been madly studying the evolution of stars, because that is energy, and energy is the whole of our civilization born in the dark universe. After another 1000 million years, we have mastered the gravitational technology. In the dark universe, we are frantically looking for some remnants of gas and dust that make up stars, and using our great gravitational technology, let them slowly aggregate into stars."

"In the following hundreds of millions of years, we searched the entire darkness and lit up one star after another. As a result, civilization has obtained countless seemingly inexhaustible energy, so civilization has entered a stage of rapid development. It's a pity that the good times don't last long, because we found that these gas and dust are difficult to find after they exceed about 20 light-years."

"In fact, we, who have advanced gravitational technology, have long discovered that the center of the 20 light-year range is a giant attractor."

Listening to this artificial intelligence introducing their development history, Yue Yuanzhou felt that this area looked a bit like a river system. At this time, he was thinking, the truth of the universe that this civilization said is... the whole universe is a river Department!

Thinking of this, he interrupted the chattering artificial intelligence: "You better tell me the truth of the universe!"
