Star Empire

Chapter 312: Deus Ex Machina—Dialogue in the Shadows (Part 2)

The bubbles wrapped in the pollution of the dead tide cling to the edge of the barrier that is no longer able to move forward.

The instructions from Vesrifan shattered their shells, revealing the black-red patterns and perfectly round, thicknessless patches that had been forced into their interiors.

The encapsulating shell surrounding them is shattered, but the connection between the shell and the "contents" sealing the target is strong and comprehensive. The connection between them begins to form a closed loop, and every time the information connection is circulated, the intensity will be terrifyingly enhanced.

Weisrifan noticed that even though the battlefield was so chaotic, and even one of the warring parties itself carried an extremely strong and disgusting rotten smell, the two warring parties were still aware of the existence of these threats in an instant. , some of the countless vesicles diverted their attention and distributed their firepower to these unwelcome sources of phenomena that had never been able to capture anything that could be called entities.

"Does Order inherently hate the death tide?" Faced with this rather rapid movement, Weisrifan's movements could not help but stagnate.

".It's better to be honest with each other. The secrets that need to be hidden will be revealed sooner or later."

Many bubbles have been shattered, and the new Doomsday-Creation attack wave has once again blown the scorching sun and torn open the vast white ocean. However, although these most direct phenomena on the surface are still full of real It's dangerous, but Weisrifan can see some trends that come from the past, from the present, and from the "whirlpool of existence attributes" above civilization - more, direct information from the void is flowing to him.

The continent itself is extremely powerful, but in the void, the "power" created by the vortex of information released by Σ itself is not on that side. Moreover, the ringing of the death knell is definitely not just to eliminate the invaders, it seems to be also killing the invaders. Own.

The destruction of that continent may now have become a matter of time.

The remaining bubbles quickly inflated the continuous loop of information flow iteratively to the limit. And those information flows are already covered with black and red patterns that are profane and extremely disgusting.

As if a certain time had been arranged, those originally regular and relatively stable doors lost their original smooth structure, they lost their edges, and the black tide rolled out from the broken doorways, swallowing and covering everything along the way.

Seen directly, these black tides seem to have real entities. They may be some kind of entity that swallows information representation and existence itself. However, if you can still maintain your sanity when seeing them, you can get it with just a little comparison. A series of rather strange conclusions were drawn - this surging black tide actually does not exist, only some kind of noise exists.

The parts of the entity that were originally thought to be leaked do not exist. They are all self-suggestions from the creatures of order, and are self-complements made by the creatures of order to the parts of themselves that are "beyond comprehensible".

The black tide spreads, swallowing up the confrontation between the stars along the way, swallowing up the metaphysical and metaphysical void connections and physical structures, they swallow up the fleet and the shield, and also swallow up the order and reality.

It was a huge activated death tide entity that was unimaginably large, possibly spanning hundreds of billions of light years.

Weisrifan paid attention to the entity that occasionally glowed with blood-red light streaks and engulfed the surrounding order. On the one hand, it began to drive the surface of the blazing sun again, and on the other side opposite her, the sky began to tremble. The star penetrated all existence. The black-red sun, whose attributes can be unconditionally and absolutely effective in all dimensions and all time and space, was suddenly compressed, but its "brightness" began to continuously increase, rising to an unimaginable single-point density.

In Weisrifan's mind, a few words passed quietly: It is said that in that final period, the passage through technical means to open the dead tide (sea of ​​chaos) and connect to the ordered environment has been mature, and in fact they are not difficult, it is just that they The molding conditions are too extreme.

It is said that every powerful civilization has its own sphere of influence within this realm that is considered the opposite of order - it is the projection of pieces of order deep in the death tide, spreading layer by layer, A huge shadow that is thick and vast beyond imagination.

The existence attributes built by civilization using technology, time and space are like brilliant towers covering it. There are various connections between these huge towers, and these connections further strengthen the power of the direction of order. They A repulsive force that never dries up and is always powerful is formed, and this repulsive force further suppresses the tide of death at the border of the world of order, the dark "other side".

If you want to build a stable Death Tide Gate, you need to find the original "Death Tide Aggregate", save and record all the void coordinates and parameters of the previous world, and keep it in a balance of creation and annihilation. ——In this way, after this, as long as it is stimulated by an information source point with ultra-high totality and concentration, a "dark door" that roughly corresponds to the original coordinates can be created.

It doesn't sound difficult. To realize such a huge total information source manufacturing itself is a test of technology. Since there are often "security shadows" that pervade a wide range of civilizations, if you want to directly press out the gate of death in the core area of ​​civilization, you must break through that extremely solid shadow. This may only have one possibility - to cause disaster, and if the experiment is to be carried out on the frontier of civilization...

It's not impossible, it's just that there would be too many dangers and sacrifices.

But now, I'm afraid I don't have to worry so much anymore - when the vortex dissipates and the gate itself loses support, it will soon disintegrate. It's a little strange, or maybe a little ironic: the most dangerous death tide entity in the void, the vast majority of the dangers in the huge death tide structure that may cover an entire branch of the world, are out of control. , the world structure that continues to expand outwards is endowed by the power of order.

The light of the two stars acted on the center of the spreading black tide at the same time. They slightly missed each other. The deliberate gap from one side caused the huge information concentration to form a huge high pressure of order. Under this huge pressure, in the center of the once-fragmented shadow and the new shadow boundary, the less powerful force that resisted the explosion of the death wave was finally broken.

Up and down the nine heavens, between the stars, there is a layer of darkness without thickness, lit up with spreading patterns. They are like the boundary line between life and death. They mark the dark red space, the already chaotic and stagnant order field, It also cut through the shields of countless battleships - the star cluster was crumbling, while everywhere else, stars were falling like rain.

The sunlight began to turn, and they seemed to be alive. Most of them return to the blazing sun and form a densely intertwined skynet, while the remaining part is blocked as much as possible between the goals that they "think" are more valuable and the boiling torrent of information on the mainland: not yet The huge star cluster that has lost its structural integrity, the invisible vortex that was created by itself and is slowly calming down, and is located "above", and the Arcane Throne, as well as the mentioned "soul starship" and the war.

Next, as the most conspicuous target on the battlefield, she only needs to do her best to defend herself and be prepared to fight against the Doomsday Bell and Doomsday-Creation from the Nine Heavens.

Other actions, no matter how big or small, they can actually be ignored to some extent.

Just like immunity, every moment, every minute, every second, as a self-consistent individual, the individual as a whole needs to engage in countless struggles and confrontations at the micro level.

Of course they are important, they are absolutely important, but now, facing the fused Sparks, I no longer have to see all the details clearly. What she needs is to separate a part of constant power, let this part of power guide her body and spontaneously complete everything that contains laws and influences in the chaos.

For the super-individual, the central intelligence only needs to grasp and coordinate the major movements and movements of the entire body. It does not need to pay attention to every cell of the body all the time.

Now it seems that many of the concepts, ideas and actions that are currently being implemented are very cruel, but if you can think about what happened in the past, how many eras the empire has spanned, and how many "realistic measurement standards" it may have spanned, then We know that the empire and itself may have skipped too many stages and too many intermediate states between the starting point and the end point. Whether it is myself now or the entire empire, they may be somewhat similar to each other compared to every era in the past, but the similar parts may only be the shells in their memories.

The thicknessless black plane is constantly being stirred by the huge torrent of information. As the disturbance intensifies and the blows against it continue to intensify, invisible mapping layers begin to appear over the dark continent. They are like the atmosphere. , and like a mist of light that seems to be constantly evaporating.

Their appearance itself means that the observation that I have invested in it has begun to give back, which means that my awareness of exploration and attack locking has not been cut off or blocked because of this - its intensity has begun to decline further, and its scope of action has begun to Narrow.

Around the continent, in independent or continuous space-time intervals and super-order matrices in the order field, countless fleets and the brilliant star clusters formed by countless fleets seem to be affected by the environment.

Regardless of the environment or the order field, they all become dim due to the pollution and spread of the dead tide. Although it can be resisted through the hierarchical attributes and complexity of the information itself, such an irrational environment itself seems to greatly increase the spread of danger. The white light of the sun seemed to attract their attention and give them clarity and strength.

They struggled to cheer up, and they began to redirect their attention and apply more powerful firepower to the protective layer that had already manifested the entity.

The incalculable, weird and brilliant ripples seemed to be just passing by, and the end of the world seemed to be coming because of them.

". There is a strong correlation between environment and thought. This is recognized by everyone, and so do we, and so do I." Wu

Behind Yan's figure, a new person whose body seemed to have become a little distorted followed him again.

"At the beginning, everyone effectively used the so-called Doomsday Ark and the various resources inside the Doomsday Ark, but the empire's actions seemed to quickly reach a visible end, and this end was not actually reflected in technology. At the applicable level, they are more reflected in the level of thought. At that time, no one realized how much changes a world made of information could have, and how many layers of fields and structures it might have."

"Life is subjective, and the world of order can also reveal subjectivity. The understanding of life comes from the surrounding world of order and reality, and life uses its own subjective will and subjective ideas to influence and transform the surrounding environment."

"For a limited world of a single order, perhaps the height to which the information contained within it can be piled is limited. But for the void, for this platform that truly carries infinity, it contains countless The result of design, pregnant with all the truly infinite possibilities. All needs, all realities are actually already in the void. Making them is just extracting the stone sculptures from the stone blocks. The void is the ultimate source of everything. , nothing is impossible for it.”

"Perhaps in the future, thoughts will transcend perception and knowledge. That is not impossible. If there is a chance, we can meet again."

".Your name is also Woodsvedoville?"

"Exactly." After the slightly twisted figure briefly answered the question, it quickly lost its vitality. It slowly walked towards the end of the queue like a manipulated sculpture.

"What a strange person." The figure at the head of the team shook his head and was ready to continue walking - there seemed to be purple light in the distance, although it was not clear where the light came from, but it seemed, Those light sources are obviously a better choice than the swirling clouds and empty darkness around them.

He decided to keep going, although he didn't know if this was a decision, or if it was a decision he made.

"A wide variety of weapons, effective theories are not all the same equipment, and a wide range of theories. These actually formally represent the broadening of horizons and the progress of technological thinking. There are twenty-six quadrants in the void, and these quadrants themselves also have has a considerable range, and it is not ruled out that after this, the number of quadrants themselves will continue to expand, and they may even eventually reach infinite levels with infinite time superposition. Within the Void Quadrant, there are also countless worlds. These worlds are both similar and different from each other."

"As long as we are alive and as long as we can progress, our cognition will continue to expand, and the scope of knowledge will become wider and wider. But we need to note that when our knowledge and cognition advance, they are not just numerical values. The expansion of the world or the expansion of the original logic, the changes brought about by every sufficient level of progress are all-inclusive, they are not limited to one place, and the changes they bring can be seen everywhere.”

"The fleet may not necessarily solve all problems, but in such an environment, the fleet and weapons are the most important parts. They are one of the direct guarantees for survival."

"A lot of pressure? Helpless? Starting to lower the bottom line? All speculation and discussion have to be moved to the bottom of thinking to avoid overthinking. Occam's razor has failed?"

The white clothing has golden lines. It was one of the iconic clothing of the supreme ruler of a certain empire. Now, this almost material clothing is worn on a certain figure, and that figure is facing , is a person who is already somewhat blurry. That person seems more like he is made of condensed light. He stood at one end of the road and gave himself a cold look, as if he were some powerful extraterrestrial being looking at the ants on the ground.

"It's normal, it's impossible to dodge. We're fighting an enemy we shouldn't, let alone an enemy we can't defeat."

"In the void, there is no truly stupid existence in the civilization and wisdom that can truly develop. There may only be a relative gap in understanding between them and us, but this so-called gap cannot be absolute."

"It has been stated that the Σ civilization may last for more than five trillion years. This is five trillion times. From their perspective, the true "unknowable world" that has not been intervened in the slightest may have been born and destroyed for five trillion years. More than a trillion times. And within the known interval, considering the original definition of the information evolution year and the available space, they may be able to make good use of every inch of time to coordinate any new discoveries or possibilities."

"The void is still full of dangers, and there are infinite possibilities that need to be faced in the void. Among these possibilities, there may be exciting parts, and there are also poisonous parts. Only true strength can compete with them. As an intelligent life, Everyone has the ability to use ideas and technology to make up for their current shortcomings!”

"If there is a problem that does not require attention at all, then it does not need to be considered a "problem" at all. If a problem requires attention, then no matter how large and complex it is, as long as it is not completely unsolvable in the end, it It can always be solved. The same is true for technology. There are countless difficulties in the void, and technology that is constantly advancing is constantly solving these difficulties!"

"Σ has been going for five trillion years, and they have also had a strong enough foundation in these five trillion years. Think about what would happen if the stars in one universe began to automatically replicate themselves, and then think about more universes What will happen if the stars among them begin to replicate themselves."

"We are just children, from thoughts to actions, forever. We do not stand on the shoulders of our predecessors, we just pick up a well-preserved residue. Don't be complacent about the achievements and breakthroughs we have made now, and think we have gained It is just wishful thinking on the surface that no one has discovered it before, and explores secrets that no one has discovered before. At this point, no one is stupid, but disasters can cover up too much history and the truth of the past. , nothing more.”

"Woodstwedoville, I hope you and I can coexist well in the future - I push myself into the bottom of thinking, into the shadow that I am unwilling to face and accept, but ignore the inherent objective facts. Maybe the world can You may be deceived, but you cannot deceive yourself.”

"Look at that - look at the endless gap! From within the world to outside the world, this is a huge ascension, but how many people really see the gap? How many people think that "the bottom line has been "Break", power has been overused, etc. This series of sayings, thinking that everything has begun to exceed imagination, beyond the limits that one can accept, just look at all this from the perspective of one's own limited understanding and senses, and from one's own perspective of ancient times. Did you come to such a conclusion based on the worldview that you inherited from the history and that you think is indestructible?”

"It's unfortunate - you and I, we, I think that, and we think a lot."

"It can be said that there was more than one life form of our ancestors on that most primitive planet, and many of them were able to set off a flood that covered the earth with sufficient resources. In the depths of space and stars, Murdoch At its peak, its light can swallow up hundreds of galaxies—but for the entire history, that time is only a blink of an eye!"

"Void is an endless space with no upper limit! Even inside the universe that is no longer vast, there are still tens of billions or billions of stars still burning. From the gravity that can leave the earth, can the first star break away? It takes 35 billion years for the gravitational pull of a sun to cover the entire universe! That is hundreds of billions or nearly trillions of galaxies, and a vast scale of hundreds of billions of light years! If we want to get through this step, we How many stages do we need to go through, how many springboards do we need to create, how much fate and probability do we need, how many possibilities do we need?”

"Inside the universe, with limited resources, the insect tide spawned can be measured in gigabytes. What about the void? The void is a system that is always open and infinite - infinity is a collection, a process, and a concept! What’s more, this is just the beginning!”

"Tens of millions, billions, this is just a drop in the ocean for the stars. It occupies a corner in the void that is less than a planetary system than the universe, less than a corner of a rocky planet than a grain of sand. Just think that you already have it. Ability to challenge the hegemons of previous civilizations? Isn’t this ridiculous?!”

Nameless fear and anger entangled the figure at the head of the team. His anger made him clenched his fist tightly, and then hit the white light and shadow in front of him fiercely - light and shadow were formless, it was just He quietly spread out a part of himself, and the angry fist did not touch a single bit of it.

"Look at such a long team - we are all you! You are also us! Think carefully about what you should do if you still have the opportunity in the future! Otherwise, not everyone will give you the opportunity!" After saying that, the shadow quickly lost its vitality. .

".Opportunity?!" The leader of the team, the figure who had been leading the team forward, suddenly realized that at some point, his body had become stable, and he felt a slightly unfamiliar smoothness - he lowered his head slightly, Seeing that there seems to be more than one layer of "skin" on my body. And when he looked at the end of the team, the farther away the figures were from him, the more blurry their shapes became. Not only did they change from entities to aggregates of some other substances, but then the aggregates themselves seemed to begin to change. Gotta keep twisting and going crazy.

Could this be some kind of pattern? Do you really need to remind yourself of some content?

"Zizzi-crack-"

"What is that?" Vidoville, who was at the beginning of the team, felt some weird noises. They were a bit like nerve rupture, but also like the crisp sound of some solid body breaking along its own joints and the collision of broken debris. The crisp sound they made, and then they soon became a roar.

The sound was also transmitted to the ceiling that was like a stream of light. Weisrifan's eyes followed the source and looked at the thicknessless door that was devouring shields and killing stars every moment.

The gate has collapsed, and it cannot spread further, and the sticky dark red space and countless powerful attacks have also given it an unimaginable impact - the order structure supporting the existence of the gate has collapsed, and the gate cannot continue.

However, what collapsed was also the three mapping split layers.

A large number of earth veins have been extinguished. There is no blood flow inside these earth veins, and many facilities have stopped operating. They no longer project firepower into the void and the deep space of the order field, and they no longer maintain their own existence and all foundations.

They fall down.
