The quiet night sky envelopes the world like a giant curtain. Even though the brilliant artificial lights on the earth make the twinkling stars appear dimmer than before, the cold starlight itself does not care about the lights on the earth - they will continue to do so. Just like in the past millions of years, I have been quietly overlooking all living beings, watching one world after another in the vast and dark space where civilization may thrive.
What is happening on those distant planets right now? I'm afraid the best playwrights can't sketch it out even if they exhaust their imaginations.
"However, some information that is faster than light can bring greetings 6.12 light-years away, letting people who are looking up at the stars at this moment know that there is also a vibrant world in the distance.
Tire raised his neck and stared quietly at the twinkling stars. The dim silver light sprinkled on her beautiful and delicate scales, giving this siren a lot of elegance and tranquility out of thin air - Gawain was very fond of it. It's rare to understand what this deep-sea creature, which spends most of its time sleeping, is thinking about, especially right now.
"What are you thinking about?" He couldn't help but break the silence.
"What a beautiful starry sky The scenery that was once so unfamiliar now looks quite familiar," Tire said softly, "We have been watching this starry sky for millions of years. You said, in these millions of years, there are How many civilizations have perished under our watch?¡±
"On the scale of light years, the death of civilization is less than the twinkle of a star. I think it is meaningless to discuss this topic until we have the ability to travel among the stars."
"That's right," Tire smiled, "We should think about something more practical."
"Speaking of more practical things, I just had an idea about the sender of 'Cangxing'." Gawain's thoughts were whirling in his mind, and new guesses gradually took shape, "Do you think will they Didn¡¯t you really master the super-light communication technology?¡±
"Oh?" Tyr raised his eyebrows, with confusion in his tone, "Do you suspect that our communication technology experts have made a mistake in their judgment? Mistakenly identified ordinary signals as super-light communication?"
"No, I believe your experts. I just suspect that the sender of 'Cangxing' is not as 'smart' as we thought." Gawain shook his head and said his guess, "The reason why they used super-light communication to send such a The crude and primitive signal format may not have any brilliant long-term plan at all, but because they can only send those things."
Tier frowned: "What do you mean"
"I'm not sure what 'level' super-light communication belongs to in the entire aerospace technology, but I guess this level is definitely not low - after all, not even the dragons of Tallond have mastered this kind of thing. And technology The development of science and technology is often linked to each other. Although there are cases of advanced development in individual fields, overall the technical heights of a civilization should be roughly balanced. The development of a technology often means the follow-up of a large number of related fields. It is normal for these technologies to be based on and complement each other," Gawain said unhurriedly, "So, if the senders of Cangxing have fully mastered the super-light speed communication technology, then they are probably no longer a group that sticks to their motherland. The race on the star may even have becomeanother 'Sailor'."
"That makes sense" Tier nodded slowly and murmured thoughtfully.
"Apart from the 'greetings' sent by the Cangxing, has your antenna array captured other super-light communications in the starry sky?" Gawain asked seriously, "Even if it is just a short clutter ?¡±
"No," Tire immediately shook his head. "After confirming that the signal sent by sk-32-a was super-light communication, Antavien also deliberately scanned the entire sky that the antenna system could cover, but there was no The second faster-than-light communication was discovered"
"So, the sender of the Cangxing letter is probably not a civilization that has fully mastered the super-light communication technology - otherwise the starry sky near them would not be so 'quiet'. Can you imagine? It's like a race that has mastered the method of making fire. Skills, and then hundreds of years passed, and not even an extra wisp of smoke came out of the area where this race lived"
Tier reacted instantly: "Unless that 'torch' is not theirs, they don't know how to light a second fire, nor do they know what this 'torch' can do besides signaling!"
Gawain nodded and said slowly in a low tone: "This is just a possibility."
"Whose torch does this belong to?" Tier asked subconsciously, "Thisthis is a 'torch' that can transmit signals at super-light speeds in space on a light-year scale"
Gawain didn't answer for a while, he just raised his head and looked up at the stars quietly, but the fact??opened his eyes.
The long silver-white hair was fluttering in the ball of pure water, but soon it was all pulled back under the control of its owner. Petia swam out of the ball of pure water, and the clothes on her body changed into Wearing a light blue dress that was luxurious but did not affect her movement, she glanced in the direction of the door. Rosalia, the deep sea maid, appeared in front of her almost at the same time riding a stream of water.
"Your Majesty," Rosalia took two steps forward, "You woke up later than usual today."
"I saw Eva's dream again," Petia said. "She seems to like dreaming very much recently."
The maid Rosalia's face suddenly showed an expression of interest: "Eva's dream? What did you see?"
"The specific content is a bit blurry. I just remember seeing the endless sea, an endless sea like my hometown. There is no land on the sea, and there are many lives that thrive in the sea, including creatures like sea monsters. It also includesraces I don't recognize, and some giant structures that look like ancient ruins or monuments floating on the ocean" Petia rubbed his forehead, "That's all, they are all inexplicable sights It¡¯s just a dream after all.¡±
"Perhaps Eva saw the scenery seen by her compatriots far away in her dream? We are one in Eva's dream" Rosalia showed a smile on her face and said words of relief, "Anyway, it doesn't seem like what you saw was a bad sight."
"Is it far away" Petiya said softly, and was reminded by this word, "Is there any progress on the hyper-light array?"
"Still no signal has been received from any immigration ship," Rosalia shook her head slightly. "In addition, the monitoring of sk-32-a is still in progress. It has been three months since the last signal was received. It¡¯s been a long time, and according to the rules we¡¯ve learned, the next time super-light communication appears will be in ten minutes.¡±
"Yes," Petia nodded and swam towards the corridor - this is the royal area of ??Antavien. The entire area is located inside the deep water barrier, and the seawater from her hometown fills every corridor and every room. , of course you can only go out by swimming, which is a very convenient and comfortable environment for the Kraken. "What about scanning the surrounding sky?"
"Nothing was found," Rosalia shook her head and said, "Only a few very weak low-frequency calls were received, which are regular signals emitted by light waves or star-like pulses. They may have been floating in this space for tens of thousands or even thousands of people. For hundreds of thousands of years, they circled in circles within the cage created by the star system, and the civilization that launched them has been dead for many years.¡±
" Even if they don't die, there's nothing we can do," Pettia sighed, "We can only listen but not transmit. This is an unsolvable problem Isn't there a resonant crystal yet?"
"Unfortunately, Master Hathaway said there was nothing she could do - the resonant crystal was completely destroyed, and the planet lacked the key materials needed to recast the crystal. Although the energy technology and runic knowledge shared by the Cecil people It¡¯s easy to use, but their two technologies are not helpful in repairing the super-light communication array. In addition, we also tried several natural materials recently excavated from the deep sea, but they did not meet the requirements"
"Okay, this kind of thing can't be rushed," Pythia nodded lightly, "Just let the deep sea witches do their best."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
On the golden beach of Io continent, in the area where the Antavien ran aground, a complex communication tower stood on the stern deck of this giant immigrant starship. The base at the bottom of the tower was wide open, exposing its The internal precision components and system lights are flickering deep in some structures. The "deep sea witches" as technicians are busy inside and outside the tower, checking the recently repaired receiving modules and adjusting the unstable ones. core system.
Above the tower, several communication components that have resumed operation are floating under the support of the invisible force field, slowly rotating around the tower body. The streamlined alloy structure points high to the sky. Under the early morning sun, its The metal shell was reflected in a golden red.
Petia came to the deck and looked at the sea monsters who were busy around the tower, as well as the Nagas who had recently appeared in this area and were learning mechanical maintenance skills from the deep sea witches, and then she Her eyes fell on the tall tower again, and a slight sigh came from her mouth.
