Chapter 331 All Sources
The Pioneer spacecraft left the Golden Galaxy more than half a year ago and continued to move towards their target Blue Star civilization. The "ghost spacecraft" that has been floating in the universe has long been thrown away. Perhaps the wreckage of this spacecraft will continue to exist in the universe for decades... hundreds of years... thousands of years... even tens of thousands of years, until one day it is captured by the attraction of stars and planets and crashes on the surface of a planet, or is violently hit by a passing giant meteor, which will eventually decompose into dust in the universe. =
Due to the accidental discovery of the wreckage of the spacecraft during the journey, the Pioneer spacecraft stayed for a month and a half. During these 45 days, the Pioneer spacecraft conducted a very detailed search on the wreckage of the spacecraft, and at the same time tried to restore the truth at that time.
During the warp flight of the Pioneer spacecraft, the surrounding space was distorted, and the starry sky outside now became completely different from the ordinary state, presenting a strange scene. This scene was so beautiful and so bizarre, but Su Yichen did not look at them even at all. It was not that the long journey had already made him accustomed to and even regarded this scene as normal, but Su Yichen, sitting in a chair, was looking at a small transparent object in his hand in Ning Shen. The object was not big, but was just a little bigger than a child's fist. It was a small pyramid similar to crystal, which seemed to be like the glass product placed on the desk table that was very common on the earth.
The origin of this thing is not simple. It was found by Su Yichen and others after carefully searching the spacecraft. Although they didn't know its true origin, they didn't know what it was. However, if there was no error in judgment, it was in the captain's cabin and placed inside an object similar to a safe.
If it is just an ordinary handicraft, its value can be said to be worthless, but from the point of view of its discovery, it is definitely not as simple as the surface. What is even more surprising is that this small pyramid object made of glass is composed of a substance that has never been discovered before, and it is analyzed by light radiation. The material is extremely special in nature and its atomic structure is almost perfect. Moreover, it is very hard, including high temperature resistance and cold resistance. Su Yichen even tried to partially cut it with high energy laser, but the high-energy laser beam of the Pioneer spacecraft has no effect on it at all. On the contrary, because its clear and transparent object is actually a little bit causing a big disaster inside the Pioneer.
After getting this thing, Su Yichen and the others used various means to try to unravel the strange features of its material, but there was no result. No matter what method they used, they could not cause any damage or damage to the gadget. And during countless experiments, they also discovered a puzzled situation, that is, when they used particle beams to try to bombard the small object, a shocking change occurred inside the small object.
The small pyramid is extremely transparent as a whole. If you don't look carefully, it is easy to ignore its existence if you don't look carefully. When the particles are bombarded, the inside of the pyramid actually undergoes a sudden change, and the inside is lit up as the size of a needle tip. Then a small light ball gradually condensed, which slowly becomes flattered again, and then begins to rotate continuously. When it rotates to an angle, countless tentacles begin to extend outwards around the light ball (disc), as if waving in the air.
After a while, when the tentacles slowly stabilized. The rotation amplitude of the disc remained at a certain level, and everyone was stunned and speechless when they saw the scene. Because what they saw was obviously a shrinking image of the Milky Way, just like the omnipotent gods grabbed the entire Milky Way and compressed it directly into this small pyramid, so realistic and colorful.
What exactly is it, what is its origin, why did the captain hide it in the safe in the cabin? Who made it, and why does its interior show the Milky Way? These answers are unaware of.
But for some reason, Su Yichen looked at this small pyramid intently. When it was not bombarded by particles, it was like an ordinary glass product, and the cold and heavy feeling of holding it in his hand was not as cold as the glass.
"Is it something left over from the Rand civilization?"
Su Yichen has guessed this more than once, because whether it was the shape of the pyramid that made him think of this, or the Milky Way scene inside the pyramid that reminded him of the star map that he had seen on the Earth's base. These two points are abnormally imagined, and Su Yichen had such a guess. However, this is just a guess, and there is no evidence to prove its origin, and there is no evidence to prove that it is related to the Rand civilization.
Even the system of Pluto Base gave a negative answer, because shortly after obtaining this object, Su Yichen sent the message back to the solar system through ultra-distance communication. After leaving the earth, such communication has never been interrupted, but as their distance from the solar system becomes more and more difficult to communicate with each other.
After waiting for several months, the Pluto Base System sent back the answer to deny that this was a Rand civilization object, which disappointed Su Yichen, who was expecting the result, originally thought that he could obtain some information about the origin of this object from the Pluto Base System, but the actual result disappointed him. But even so, in Su Yichen's heart, he still felt that this object was probably related to the Rand civilization. As for what connection they had, maybe it would be unlocked one day in the future.
In addition to this object, we also obtained some other valuable things. For example, Su Li obtained some information about the Milky Way's various cosmic civilizations, including scientific and technological aspects from the inside of the spacecraft through systematic cracking. Although this information is not very complete, it even lacks the scientific and technological information about the transition technology that Su Yichen and others most hope to get. But even so, the acquisition of this information is already a huge gain for humans on Earth.
As for the judgment of the age of the spacecraft in that space, there were also results. From multiple analysis and judgment, the spacecraft had existed in this space for more than 2,500 to 3,000 years. When this result came out, everyone couldn't help but exclaim. In such a long time, compared with the earth civilization, it had exceeded the first year of the earth civilization, and even approached the ancient times with historical records in China.
And everyone knows that the result of this time is only for reference, because the real time of this spacecraft must be longer than this time. As for how long it took, it is impossible to judge the ability. Because the spacecraft was attacked at that time, the spacecraft had been actually destroyed at the moment when the spacecraft entered the jump flight. During the subsequent jump process, due to the destruction of the spacecraft, an unknown change occurred in the jump flight. In this change, the coordinates, distances and time of the jumps were irreversible and distorted. In other words, perhaps the spacecraft might have spent dozens, hundreds or even thousands of years during the jump process. These times were compressed and distorted in special environments, so it was impossible to accurately calculate.
The items carried in the internal cabins of the spacecraft wreckage are all extremely valuable commodities in the universe after analysis and research. This result is also obvious. After all, this is a commercial spacecraft, and the video data found by Su Yichen and others from the storage is also officially the case of galaxies traded by the spacecraft. Since it is a commercial trade, the items carried by the spacecraft are goods that trade between galaxies. How can it be worthless as cargo?
Although the Pioneer spacecraft is smaller than that spacecraft, the capacity inside the spacecraft still has a lot of space. After discussion, everyone agreed to transfer some of the commodities from the wreckage of the spacecraft to the Pioneer spacecraft. These commodities are extremely valuable assets for the earth civilization. Also in their mission to go to the Blue Star civilization, if they own these things, they may be useful after arriving in the Blue Star civilization. Of course, all the goods cannot be transferred. Because the Pioneer spacecraft does not have such a large volume at all, but even so the commodities they transferred almost filled the empty volume warehouse of the Pioneer.
In addition, Su Yichen and the others finally figured out which civilization the intelligent universe civilization died on the wreckage of the spacecraft belonged to. From the few words left in the information obtained, they learned that this spacecraft belongs to an ancient universe civilization called Nimonle, which is located near the center of the Milky Way. This universe civilization should belong to a medium universe civilization in the entire Milky Way. According to the current civilization system of the Milky Way, it is roughly divided into nine levels of universe civilization. Level 1 to level 3 universe civilization belongs to elementary universe civilization. Level 4 to level 6 universe civilization belongs to medium universe civilization, and level 7 to level 9 universe civilization is higher universe civilization.
As for those life planets that have not yet been able to fly out of their own galaxies and are only in the preliminary state of civilization, they are called primitive civilizations or primitive ecological civilizations in the Milky Way, and are not considered to be among the ranks of cosmic civilizations at all.
Judging from this division, the original earth civilization was a primitive civilization or an primitive ecological civilization, while the earth civilization that has just entered the ranks of cosmic civilization should be the primary cosmic civilization of the first-level civilization. As for the Gaia civilization, it is determined by judgment that it is roughly in the ranks of first-level to second-level cosmic civilizations, and the current earth civilization belongs to the primary cosmic civilization.
The fourth to sixth level cosmic civilizations are separated from the elementary cosmic civilization. The most eye-catching sign of their main state of civilization compared with that of elementary cosmic civilization is that they can use preliminary transition technology. However, compared with higher cosmic civilizations, their transition technology is still very insufficient and can only make small-scale transitions. In the seventh level, including seventh level cosmic civilization, this technology is already very mature, but in the entire Milky Way, the most cosmic civilizations are elementary cosmic civilizations, followed by medium cosmic civilizations. The total number of first to sixth level cosmic civilizations accounts for more than 97% of the entire Milky Way universe, and the remaining 3% are composed of seventh level cosmic civilizations and eighth level cosmic civilizations. These two higher cosmic civilizations are like a very small number of cosmic civilizations standing at the top of the pyramid. They can be said to be the real masters of the entire Milky Way.
As for the ninth-level universe civilization, although there is a division in the Milky Way, in fact, there is no ninth-level universe civilization at present. According to the information obtained, the ninth-level universe civilization in the Milky Way is just a legend for other civilizations. Perhaps the Rand civilization, which was once extremely powerful in the literature and later disappeared for no reason, belongs to the ranks of ninth-level universe civilizations.
The Nimonle civilization belongs to the sixth-level cosmic civilization. This level is already very high in the Milky Way's cosmic civilization. It can be said to be the top of the medium-level cosmic civilization. No wonder this commercial armed spacecraft has such a powerful defense system and nearly perfect jump technology. Unfortunately, the damage of the spacecraft is too serious now, and it lacks some of the hulls, and there is too little scientific and technological information obtained from the spacecraft.
As a sixth-level medium-cosmic civilization, even half a foot has entered the ranks of seventh-level civilizations, the Nimonle civilization, with its connotation and reputation in the Milky Way, has the ability to freely travel through small galaxies among the various galaxies of the Milky Way. This can be seen from the free commercial trade of this spacecraft in various small galaxies, otherwise it would be almost impossible for a cosmic civilization that cannot protect itself to engage in such activities.
But even such a powerful cosmic civilization was destroyed by another civilization. Could that civilization not be worried about the revenge of the Nemonle civilization? Su Yichen had two inferences about the situation of the two warships, one inference was a cosmic pirate, and the other inference was a real soldier who was targeting them.
Judging from the information obtained, the latter is more likely, otherwise the defense ability of the spacecraft would not be instantly destroyed by the opponent. At least the levels of the two civilizations should be not far apart. With warships and commercial armed spacecraft, the former has the advantage when the technology is similar.
As for why the other party did this, what is the reason for doing this? Su Yichen once again turned his attention to the small pyramid in his hand. Maybe it was the source of all this. (To be continued)
