Chapter 268 Spaceship AI Is Too Optimistic
The star field on the edge of the maelstrom.

On the large scale of the brood universe, one can see a spiral supercluster of galaxies composed of countless galaxies. The diameter of the spiral exceeds 20 billion light-years, and it is the largest celestial system in the entire brood universe.

At the edge of the vortex is the sparse region of galaxies. The average minimum distance between galaxies here can reach tens of millions of light-years. At the same time, like an isolated island, they will not be easily disturbed by outsiders, even if the galaxies in the brood universe There have been more than one cosmic wars between civilizations, but none of them have affected the marginal star field.

The distance scale of the universe has become a natural barrier, making it difficult for the flames of war to spread to the marginal star fields.

But today, the tranquility of the fringe domain no longer exists.

In a burst of dazzling light, suddenly appearing in the star field on the edge of this vortex, this is the high-frequency electromagnetic wave released at the end of the superluminal speed. After the light dissipated, a dark spaceship shaped like a donut Emerging under the light, it is like a work of art carefully carved from obsidian.

The annular diameter of the spacecraft is 6x10^6km, and the cross-sectional diameter of the annular cylinder is 500km. The surface is dark but reflective like a mirror. It is difficult to distinguish the front and rear of the spacecraft from the appearance, because it does not have similar propulsion nozzles. However, although there is no propulsion nozzle, the rear end of the ring-shaped spaceship's moving direction bursts out an extremely distant circular jet flow. The jet flow is conical. The farther away from the ring-shaped spaceship, the more concentrated the jet flow is. The most distal ends converge into a single tip.

When arriving at the destination coordinates, the ring-shaped spacecraft stopped, and the circular wheel structure began to roll in a clockwise direction.

At this time, the interior of the spaceship is exchanging massive information flows.

"The reactor is operating normally with a constant power output."

"The internal circuit has been calibrated, and the high-energy pulser is operating stably."

"The operation of the tug boat has been checked, and we have applied to the main station to launch the tow wormhole."

"The main station has passed the application and launched the traction wormhole."

With the input of the final command information to the node of the high-energy pulser in the ring, a very dazzling white light suddenly burst out from the center of the inner side of the ring. If the eyesight is good enough, it can be faintly found through the stars in the background. Time and space are gradually distorting.

Not long after, a pitch-black sphere appeared in the center of the dazzling light at the center of the ring, and it continued to expand in size. A wormhole gradually unfolded in this light.

In the ring-shaped spaceship, different nodes are exchanging information intensively after the wormhole is formed.

"Confirm that the space-time curvature is negative, and the configuration of the wormhole is stable."

"Second-stage reactor commissioned to increase high-energy pulse power."

"Third stage reactor in operation..."

"The fourth stage reactor is put into operation..."

……

"The degree of space-time expansion has reached the peak value of the safe passage standard, the degree of space-time expansion is constant, and the configuration of the wormhole is stabilized."

Huge battleships with a volume of tens of kilometers passed through the other end of the wormhole in an orderly manner. After passing through the wormhole, they immediately assembled into an interstellar fleet, centered on the ring spaceship, and launched a super-light cruise. .

On the main platform of the towing ship, the commander-in-chief browsed a three-dimensional model composed of various values.

"I didn't expect that we, who grew up with magic as the origin, would be forced to give up magic one day and turn to technology to fight magic."

The commander-in-chief adjusted the ever-changing three-dimensional model in front of him, so that the model could stabilize in a spherical state.

While debugging in this way, the commander-in-chief asked the AI ​​in the ship, "Max, what is the success rate of using technology to fight magic like this?"

"It should be feasible for technology to defeat magic?"

The AI ​​in the ship replied: "There are too many unknown quantities to answer, please add enough fixed quantities."

The commander-in-chief passed on the functions and information of the incantations and magic to the AI ​​in the ship, and then added: "Now the mother civilization has been sealed with magic and can no longer use it, but the enemy can still use it, so they must be using magic. There is a convenient force to attack us, and we can only rely on technology to resist, I want to know the success rate in this."

"The success rate is 50%." The AI ​​in the ship replied.

"Oh? So optimistic?" The commander was taken aback. He didn't expect the AI ​​in the ship to give such optimistic data. "Tell me the reason for this conclusion."

The AI ​​in the ship replied, "The scope of application of spells and magic is mainly to show different degrees of physical phenomena, and it is basically useless in terms of information acquisition. As long as technology can be used to create enough unknowns, spells and magic will not be able to comprehensively target the mother civilization. A devastating blow."

"Technology has a growth attribute, and it cannot be compared with spells and magic in the short term, but as long as the mother civilization can exist, technology will surpass spells and magic in the long run, so as to make up for the disadvantages with the enemy."

"The subsequent derivation has entered into the unknown area of ​​the future. Due to the lack of sufficient data related to the development of incantations, magic and technology, it is impossible to make a more accurate judgment. The estimated success rate is 50%."

In order to fight against the Babel swarm of civilizations in the universe that can still use spells and magic, the inter-galactic civilization must use the unknown to buy time, and then exchange time for technological improvements.

Raise technology to the same height as spell magic, or even surpass spell magic.

Therefore, all inter-galaxy civilizations that decide to fight to the death with the Babel swarm are based on rational thinking, and even if they do not communicate with each other, they also adopt almost the same strategy-stretch the front line, expand the battlefield to the maximum extent, and finally Well, the entire universe has evolved into a battlefield. In such a chaotic environment, due to the increase in entropy, the greatest degree of unknowns will inevitably be born. The more unknowns, the greater the winning rate of the inter-galactic civilization.

However, these inter-galaxy civilizations that are deployed in the hive universe at super-light speeds do not know that their every move is under the surveillance of the swarm.

Of course, in order not to trigger the anti-observation alarm system of these inter-galactic civilizations, the swarm is to let the hive universe realize the surveillance by reporting those unusual superluminous mass bodies at which coordinates distort the time and space.

A swarm of creatures wondered, "Why don't you attack?"

A beehive explained: "These inter-galactic civilizations, the bee colony is going to absorb them as a satellite civilization. If it is just to destroy them, naturally it doesn't need to be so troublesome, but if they want to be more obedient and peaceful in the future, the bee colony is necessary. Give them the utmost desperation."

"So don't worry, let them lay out slowly, wait until the time in the swarm announcement is up, and then use actions to tell these inter-galactic civilizations how cheap and insignificant their efforts are."

……

With the passage of time, these inter-galaxy civilizations that have always enclosed themselves in a star field have gradually expanded their footprints to the entire universe in the face of the threat of force from the bee swarm.
