Voyage of the Stars.

Chapter 757 I can’t bear it
Is it necessary to reach the peak warp speed of the fourth-level civilization to get out of this diamond-shaped lattice maze? Or in other words, to be qualified to truly enter the microcosm and obtain the things left by the pioneers?

It's a maze and it also gives speed prompts. There seems to be no other possibility except this. After all, it is too obvious.

But if this is the case, doesn't it mean that once a civilization that has mastered the peak speed of a level 4 civilization comes in, it can directly enter the microcosm and obtain the things left behind by the pioneers?

What's the point of such a test? Why not just open it to the peak level 4 civilizations? Why bother with drifting bottles and maze tests?

If searching for data is a test of a civilization's wisdom and computer power, then what is thirty-eight times the speed of light!
And then again, only a fourth-level civilization can find the answer, which means that the condition for obtaining the inheritance is to be at least a fourth-level civilization. This result will inevitably lead to those civilizations that encounter the drifting bottle but have not reached the fourth-level civilization being trapped in the maze, and ultimately unable to find a way out and all dying inside.

For example, if a level-three civilization came here, once it entered the maze, it would definitely not be able to get out, because there were not enough resources here for them to build an astronomical-grade particle collider. If it could not be promoted to a level-four civilization, it would certainly not be able to get out, let alone obtain inheritance.

How is that different from a trap!

Could it be that this is to tell the lower civilizations that have obtained the key how dangerous the universe is? This is to tell them at the cost of the risk of civilization being destroyed!

Or maybe the pioneers never considered that a third-level civilization might find this place. After all, the probability of a third-level civilization encountering a drifting bottle near this star field is too low, countless times lower than the probability of encountering a drifting bottle in the vast Milky Way. Just like humans, they also need to go through cross-cantilever navigation to get here.

This also eliminates the possibility of a Level 3 civilization entering the maze. After all, it is almost impossible for a Level 3 civilization to travel across thousands of light years at their speed. Perhaps this is the reason.

But the question arises again, if the screening at a low level of civilization can be explained in this way, then what about thirty-eight times the speed of light!

If the inheritance can really be obtained by traveling at thirty-eight times the speed of light, then this maze is not a test, but just a setting condition. If so, doesn't it mean that the Gurgi of the dynamic picture civilization has truly broken through the obstacles of the lattice maze, entered the small universe, and obtained the inheritance?

It has to be said that other human speculations are basically correct. The guess that 38.941 times the speed of light can break through the limitations of the lattice maze is half right.

As for why it is only half right, we have to talk about the Gurgi of the animated civilization.

The pioneers did not favor any civilization that entered the microcosm, and every civilization entered an almost identical maze space and encountered both virtual and physical lattices.

Moreover, with the strength and knowledge of the dynamic graph civilization, they even found this set of values ​​earlier than humans. After all, as a civilization that can conduct interstellar trade, their knowledge is definitely incomparable to humans. It is true that the dynamic graph civilization uses ternary computers, but it does not mean that they do not know binary computers, so they must have thought that the virtual and real lattices represent the 0 and 1 of the binary computer language.

But after getting the value of 38.941 times the speed of light, they were also confused.

Because their Gurgi has reached this maximum speed. If the value obtained means that by reaching this speed, they can break through the diamond lattice maze or enter the real microcosm to obtain the pioneer legacy, then the Gurgi should have walked out of the maze directly from the beginning.

However, in fact, this was not the case. After the Gurgi entered the maze, it sailed at the highest speed, but nothing happened.

To be honest, the Gurgis were more puzzled than humans. They also came to the conclusion that they could get out of the maze at 38.941 times the speed of light, but the ironclad facts were in front of them, so they were now even more unsure of their judgment than humans.

In fact, we can't blame them. If humans had a battleship with the speed of the top four civilization like them, they would probably do the same. The personnel on the four million battleships of the dynamic picture civilization have only thought about this question every day recently, what does 38.941 times the speed of light mean?

Because they were puzzled, they began to hate humans. They thought that humans who possessed the key to the microcosm had mastered some information that they did not know, which was why they were now trapped in the diamond lattice maze. The secret of 38.941 times the speed of light must be in the hands of human civilization.

It is not only the civilization in the dynamic picture that has such emotions. The Orange Star Civilization on the other side is also trapped in the maze. Some of them are suspicious of human civilization and believe that human civilization has mastered the secret to getting out of the maze.

However, this time they really wronged humans.

Suspicion and complaints cannot solve any problems. The dynamic picture civilization and the orange star civilization naturally understand this truth when they develop into the fourth-level civilization. Therefore, their main focus is still the same as that of humans, on deciphering the clues they have explored.

After an unknown amount of time, a scientist in the animated civilization suddenly had an idea and said: Are we overthinking it? In fact, 38.941 times the speed of light is the speed of breaking through the maze, so it is not a problem with the setting of the lattice maze, but a problem with the speed of the Gurgi.

The scientist said that it is true that the Gurgi has such a speed, but don't forget how the Gurgi's 38.941 times warp speed came about!

One word can cause a thousand waves.

When other scientists and scholars from the dynamic picture civilization heard this, they immediately used their imagination to start calculating various possibilities.

As a result, they came to a very likely conclusion, that is, this was a test to see whether the civilization truly possessed the peak speed technology of a fourth-level civilization, rather than a purchased warp engine like the Gurgi.

In other words, even if a level 38.941 peak civilization enters here, they will not be able to find a way out, unless they manufacture one or a batch of new level peak warp engines on site, and then test-drive them in this space at a speed of times the speed of light.

This conclusion makes sense, but it makes the animated civilization feel conflicted, because they now have two choices. One is to develop a new generation of warp engines by themselves, and the other is to dismantle the warp engine on the Gurgi and use it as a reference to study and understand it, and then manufacture a new generation of warp engines.

If this guess is correct, then choosing the second option will undoubtedly win over human civilization and Orange Star civilization at the starting line. The fact that Orange Star civilization has just mastered the technology of ten times the speed of light is not particularly important. The key point is human civilization.

Scientists from the dynamic image civilization believe that humans may have thought of it after obtaining this set of data, and then embarked on the road of developing a new generation of warp engines. Therefore, the only safe way to obtain the treasure of the microcosm before humans is the second method.

But they can’t bear to do so!
That was the warp engine they bought at a huge price, and the engine was a complicated machine. If their guess was wrong, they would not be able to put the engine back after dismantling it.

On the other hand, the Orange Star Civilization in another lattice maze did not have such concerns. After they guessed that the dynamic picture civilization might have already obtained the inheritance of the small universe because of its possession of the Gurgi, they stopped thinking too much and only thought about how to get out of this lattice maze and not die here.

So after they guessed this possibility, they grabbed this life-saving straw and immediately launched a scientific research plan.
