Voyage of the Stars.

Chapter 767 Ship Text Wall

For a moment, no one knew what to say.

Not only did they lament the grave of civilization in their hearts, they even blamed the pioneers' actions. At the same time, they were also worried about the First Fleet of mankind, and even more so about the main body of human civilization in the universe.

If the time agreed upon between the First Fleet and the Main Civilization before departure exceeds the time agreed upon, the Main Civilization Fleet might come looking for them, which would be a tragedy. Fortunately, in the interstellar era, everyone knows that the estimated time is not short, so the First Fleet still has time.

Even now, people are somewhat pessimistic, probably because of seeing this tomb of civilization.

This is definitely a level 4 civilization, with a much larger population than the First Fleet of Humanity. They entered here at some unknown time and couldn’t find anything left behind by the pioneers. In the end, they were trapped here due to lack of resources.

It's really sad and lamentable.

If humans can't find it either, they will probably follow in their footsteps.

I really don't know why the pioneers did this. Most of the people in the First Fleet are complaining now. Why don't they just give the inheritance? Why do they create a maze for people to break through? Now that they are inside, they still don't give it to them and they have to look for it again. Isn't this cheating?

For a moment, humans had a feeling that the person who was being nice to them was either a traitor or a thief, as if the diamond-shaped crystal message in the bottle had come to them on purpose, luring them into the microcosm to be destroyed. Of course, it was just a momentary feeling, and it couldn't actually be explained.

Judging from various factors, this should not be the case.

The pioneers have no need to do this. Using this method to trap the new generation of civilization and make them perish will not benefit the pioneers in any way.

So it can only be that the pioneers really wanted to leave their heritage to the new generation of civilization, but they didn't want to give it away casually. Although humans don't know why the pioneers have such a train of thought, they shouldn't be so boring. Maybe it's just a way they approve of.

But for humans, or for all incoming civilizations, this kind of recognition is very deceptive.

A small universe created by a level-6 civilization is completely impossible for a level-4 civilization to leave on its own, just like the level-4 civilization that has already perished on the screen. It can be said with certainty that not only level-4 civilizations, but any civilization without space technology cannot leave.

No matter how much you sigh, you must not forget the important things.

Human beings are still exploring and trying to find clues left by the pioneers. At the same time, humans do not intend to just glance at this civilization tomb seen on the screen, because there may be some details that humans have not yet discovered.

With this idea in mind, the probe continued to wander and explore in this tomb of civilization in the hope of finding some possibly related information.

As a result, this decision really allowed humans to discover something different.

Humans discovered that many of the spaceships in the ruins looked old and damaged, and very chaotic at first glance, but after careful fine-tuning using restoration technology, they found that some of the spaceships seemed to have a certain pattern in their arrangement in the void, as if they were trying to form some kind of pattern.

Oh no, it should not be an effort to pose it, but it has already formed a certain shape, but because of the long time, it has gradually become distorted. Seeing this, humans continue to process the image information with certain means to restore the original appearance as much as possible.

This process really found that the group of ships were indeed arranged in a certain pattern. From the overall perspective of a certain direction, there were about 80 million ships in the ruins. These ships were either horizontal or vertical, tilted or inverted. They were like matches, floating quietly in space and slowly rotating around the huge diamond crystal.

After watching for a while, humans felt that the groups formed by these ships seemed to be some kind of text, because humans had discovered that there were repetitions in the patterns formed by the ships in many different positions, and they should be repeatedly used "words".

After a long period of research, the language experts on the Tianqin said that it was most likely text. The fourth-level civilization used 80 million ships to form rows of words in space. About every 3,000 to 5,000 ships formed a "word". If those were counted as words, the pictures they formed would look a bit like QR code patterns.

Just lying there in the void.

If we ignore its ship attributes, then such a picture looks like writing on an ancient black wall. These words, which are connected by the first part of the ship, are like QR codes and span millions of kilometers. It is very spectacular when viewed from a long-range lens.

It is truly like an incomparably huge wonder of civilization.

But humans know that such a spectacle is not actually a spectacle, but a message that the extinct fourth-level civilization tried its best to leave behind when it was dying.

They must have reached the end of their rope at that time and had no idea of ​​finding the pioneers' legacy. They just wanted to leave traces of their civilization in this universe before they perished.

This is a subtitle that is millions of kilometers wide. It must contain a lot of information about this fourth-level civilization. This fourth-level civilization certainly hopes that later civilizations can understand what they mean. However, humans are now completely in the dark and cannot directly read the texts of other civilizations without the premise of mutual communication. This is like people in the Earth era reading ancient Egyptian cuneiform characters, who are completely in the dark and cannot figure out anything.

The most crucial thing is that because it is too old, the wall of words made up of ships hundreds of light years away has been seriously distorted because their orbits have changed over the years.

This is even more difficult to decipher.

The longest way humans have thought of to preserve information is to carve words on stone. And it is true. If it is not in the internal environment of a planet like the Earth, then carving words on those dead planets in space will definitely preserve them for a very long time, billions of years will not be a problem. After all, those dead planets are called dead planets because they no longer have geological movements. Whether there is an atmosphere, water, or meteorite impacts, they will definitely be preserved for a long time.

But now this unknown fourth-level civilization does not have so many stones. Fortunately, they have enough spaceships, so they came up with this idea.

In fact, if they drive all the ships to areas with weak gravity and arrange them in groups, the deformation degree will definitely not be as great as it is now, or perhaps there will be no deformation at all.

However, when it decided to leave information about the existence of its civilization, this Level 4 civilization may have no extra fuel and could only use the last remaining fuel to propel its ships to form such a pattern on the spot.

Perhaps using these remaining fuels to provide energy for individual civilizations can allow them to survive for a while, but that is no longer meaningful, so they left behind this "ship text wall" in the hope that future generations can understand them.

Although it is not clear what is written on the ship's wall, humans have been deeply shocked by this action. Looking at it, it seems that one can read the reluctance and helplessness of this level 4 civilization.
