"The above is the birth of the Apostle of the Spirit." The ancestor Anthes exhaled, saying so many things at once seemed to make him a little bit dry. After all, it was a mortal body, and he was always subject to certain details. Your own physical condition.
The original body was originally designed as a weapon to fight the abyss. This did not exceed what Sandora and I had expected. In fact, in the core memory of the Apostles of the Spirit, there were also vaguely related impressions. The apostle's first mission: to fight the abyss is almost as engraved in the core of their thinking as the racial instinct. The life form of the Apostles of the Spirit also supports this: their talents and ways of thinking serve the war, and it can be said that this is a precisely customized species dedicated to war, so I am not surprised at all The body was ultimately designed for the purpose.
It's just that this was originally a mechanical soldier used to fight the abyss, but in the end it became a civilized successor to replace the old Spirit people-there must have been a lot of things that year. Anthers lightly mentioned the decision to relinquish civilization at that time, but the discerning person can see at a glance how amazing this decision is. It requires not only vision but also the entire race's awareness of the end of darkness.
Can you imagine the circumstances under which the earth people will create a humanoid that is stronger than the existing human beings, and then hold the consciousness of all human beings leaving the stage of civilization together, and hand over human civilization to their own creations? The Greeks did that.
"This decision is really difficult," Of course Ansels knew what was happening on the faces of Sandorra and me. He nodded calmly. "The new government is under great pressure, and so is the people. Everyone knows that this is necessary. Yes, but no one is willing to accept this fact, which is easy to understand: we are also humans, we are afraid of death, we are afraid of being forgotten. We are afraid of losing everything we have created so far, no one can calmly give up the civilization of our entire race , Say a few grandiose words and then exit chicly-no one can, even the sages can't do this. We created the primitive, their performance is better than expected: efficient, brave, powerful. Tough, born With the ability to connect spiritually and perfect themselves at an alarming rate, but the thought of these new species will take over the spiritual civilization, and we as creators must leave the scene ... To be honest, many people have contradictory psychology. "
"There were no other choices?" I couldn't imagine how difficult the exile was. So there is this question.
"What you said, a lot of people said it back then," Anthes smiled silently, "'Are there no better choices?' Can't live with the primitives?" Old humans must die, there is no alternative What? '— This kind of question has been repeatedly raised for a long time, and the less determined factions in the new government are almost shaken, but it is this kind of shaken. It is one thing to convince the firm factions that mortals have many shortcomings and are difficult to abandon Feelings, the current debate just proves that the fragile old humans must leave, otherwise the spiritual civilization will never overcome the abyss. "
"Let me give you an example," Anthes looked at as I was thinking, and suddenly laughed. "This is a real thing that happened when the primitive was about to be successfully developed. It almost caused the Spirit civilization to flee. A complete breakdown on the road— "
In fact, after fleeing the home world. We have also been under the threat of the abyss. No one knows what is going on, but the power of the abyss is raging in a considerable range. The fleet cannot stop. We continue to encounter the wreckage of the world destroyed by the abyss for hundreds of years. In China, we never rushed out of the polluted area of the abyss. "
"Maybe it was a large abyss door that resonated with the surrounding world. Or pollution in several universes broke out at the same time." Sandora explained to me in a spiritual connection. "With the ancestor technology of the year, sailing in the void should be It's slow. "
"In this dangerous situation, the fleet has been in danger of being destroyed a few times." Anthers continued. "It is ridiculous that we declare revenge, but in that year we tried our best to escape. The most dangerous On one occasion, the Ark Fleet's No. 14 ship was involved in a wreckage of the universe ... "
"It's polluted by the abyss?" Sandora whispered.
The little puppet finally stopped running around. She came and grabbed my arm. The little girl was bored while listening to the history of the mother star, but now, she seems to be attracted by the new story.
"Yes, heavily polluted, the most active abyss pollution incident. Ship 14 became a poisonous lair almost instantly, half of the population became a monster in the blink of an eye, and the remaining half faced a difficult decision:" An Seth showed a bitter expression, "You are so advanced, you must know that one of the ways of abyss pollution is to spread it through information exchange: if it is sufficiently active, it can spread through any form of information exchange, whether it is sound, text Pictures, or eyes and gestures, as long as they communicate with another individual, there is the possibility of spreading, and these communications naturally include distress signals. "
Of course I know this kind of pollution. In fact, Sandora's high-level psychic plague is also a skill that only appeared after she was transformed by the abyss. With the help of this abyss, this super-diffusive nature.
"As long as the fourteenth ship calls for help from other spacecraft, pollution may spread out instantly." Sandora said in a deep voice. This is the most deadly situation for ordinary civilization. The Spirit apostle built a firewall and Their psionic environment is highly resistant to this pollution, but for mortal races using conventional communication systems, they hardly know how to set up filters in their communicators and radios (here only examples) to filter Abyss's barrier: This barrier involves information operation technology and high-level psionic control technology, which is beyond the ancestor's technological level at that time.
And even if the Apostles had network barrier measures, the old empire was ruined by pollution far beyond the firewall: the danger of such pollution is evident.
Anthers continued in a low voice: "The situation was extremely dangerous at that time, and in subsequent investigations, we realized that our race was almost on the verge of annihilation once again. The abyss power on the 14th ship would spread to the entire fleet at any time. You need to know that it is not only the captain issuing a distress signal that will cause pollution to spread—no captain, no signal station, as long as there is a citizen on board ship No. 14, with a personal communicator in his hand, give himself a little Relatives and friends on other ships sent a farewell message. The entire fleet has a chance to be infected! "
I was sweating all at once: yes, no need for help signal issued by the captain, the abyss will not pick out "a channel of sufficient quality" when infected, it is pervasive, and even the lowest-level communication channel is enough to constitute an infection medium . I believe that the Greeks at that time still kept a civilian communication network. It was absolutely not difficult for ordinary civilians to make phone calls to relatives and friends on other spacecraft.
Even if Captain Fourteen has the authority to lock all communication channels of the entire ship, but in case he has no time to do so? In case he is one second late. Already civilians call family members?
What if-the captain himself was in a panic?
"Whether it's out of fear, out of confusion, out of survival, or just what everyone else is doing, it's easy to have a parting with friends and relatives among millions of civilians." Anthes clenched his fists and twitched his hair. Bai, "Ship Fourteen is a giant ship with a population of nearly ten million. At the time, there were 4.23 million people who were able to communicate with other arks. Before the captain ordered the bombing of the spacecraft communication tower, there were 400 Twenty-three non-time bombs will destroy the entire civilization-fortunately, Captain Fourteen is a decisive and ruthless person. He has hardly thought about it. Before some people objected to it, or if the weak sent for help from other ships, he The entire spacecraft was instantly blown up with his ultimate authority. "
After Ansers's story was finished, I found that my hands were full of cold sweat, and even Sandora next to me was relieved: back in the year, if the captain at that time reacted for a second. Or he was so soft-hearted, and with such a bit of fluke, there was nothing wrong with the subsequent Spirit Empire!
"If you come back to that scene again," Anthes looked into my eyes. "Giving the fate of the entire race to 4.23 million will be afraid of death, will be painful, will lose reason, will cry and runny Mortals are still handed to a group of rational creatures who can shut down all emotions at a critical moment and do not hesitate to explode collectively. What would you choose? "
"If we want to stay alive, find a stable world for the rest of our lives, and run away again when the abyss comes, then naturally we can choose the former-as long as it runs fast enough, it is fine. But if we want revenge, we want to be like a soldier To fight with those things upright and to death, we must choose the latter: let the mortal retreat, and we can't drag the primitive body a little hind legs. At that time, even if it is not us who are out of date, the old Heroes who fight the abyss, we will also At least make room for the children in their own way, as parents, at least not waste. "
Anthers mentioned the three words "stubbing" and the heavy, harsh words, but after fully understanding the thrilling era of exile, I can only admit that these three words are the only ones that apply.
Fighting against the abyss requires more than just the valor of the mortal. The spirit ancestors who live on the premise of revenge fully understand that in order to defeat a cold and ruthless enemy, they must be more cold and ruthless-at least before they can master the overwhelm Before sexual technological prowess, starting from willpower was the only way they could think of.
"So we took the Primitives as the heirs of civilization, and taught them everything they could teach them, and then the exile fleet was divided into two parts," Anthes said with ease, "We were in There is also development in the escape: by collecting materials from the wreckage of the world that we encountered by chance, we have created a batch of new spacecraft, which are more advanced, faster, and have experimental precision navigation equipment. We hand these spacecraft to Primordial, let them find a way that is completely opposite to the current course of the exile fleet. Go all the way, never look back. From that day on, the Apostles of the Spirit replaced the old humans. No old human remained on the original ships. Because any mortal person may become a weakness to be broken by the abyss, the exile fleet continues to advance on the original route, hoping to find a stable world that will not be found by the abyss to try to rebuild civilization, but ... later You can also guess things, you found the wreckage of the ark, the fleet eventually failed to escape the chase of the abyss, and the reason for the destruction of the fleet Or mortal weakness: bad decisions people panic and chief led the fleet all off, at least in my spaceship disintegrated, communication channels have no echo, so it is probably no other survivors. "
Anthers finally finished these long history, and there was a long silence in the lounge. Even the doll girl who was always moving quietly quietly, nestled in my leg and held my arm, turned Turning over my eyes and looking at Anthes without blinking, I gently rubbed her hair: "You erased a lot of information about the creator from the original memory. Right?"
"Yes," Anthes nodded with a smile. "I participated in the resolution and got the support of most people, because everyone knows that although the primitive feelings are indifferent, they always develop a complete emotion. Module. If they have too much information about the creator, I worry that they will come back to find their 'parents' prematurely. At that time, we were still not sure what the critical point of the switch between the emotional and rational modules was, so Only by erasing their information about the creators can this risk be mitigated. "
"So we can't remember what our creator looks like for so many years," Sandora said softly, as if talking to herself. "Being able to make such a decision is extremely brave by the standards of the Apostles of the Spirit."
"But the bravery of mortals is always temporary. Do you know how many people are eager to turn around and chase the direction that the primitives left when the fleet is about to be destroyed, do you want those children to protect themselves?" Anthes revealed A profound smile, "There are many brave soldiers in those people. If they face other enemies, they will never be weak, but the abyss just happens to affect people's minds, and the willpower of mortals will be easily softened by the abyss, and then Nervous. "
Neither Sandorra nor I spoke.
"Tell me about the abyss that broke out in the home world at the time," Sandora licked her lips and asked a question that many people care about. "According to your description. It was a very large-scale outbreak, even in my case. In my memory, I rarely encountered this kind of abyss disaster that spread to many worlds. It first appeared in the form of a 'gate'. What was the scale at that time? "
"Door?" Anthers apparently did not have the knowledge of the current Apostles of the Spirit. He probably didn't have a clear concept of the Abyss Gate at that time. "Is this what you said later? Probably, I remember that its scale exceeded Five light years. It happened to colonize the forty-six colony of the galaxy, dividing the sun and the colony into two ... "
"What ?!" Anthes was interrupted by Sandora before he finished speaking, "What's the size of the abyss door you say!"
"... Five light years," Anthes was surprised. "has a problem?"
"The gate of the abyss is unlikely to be so big," Sandora almost jumped up: Her Majesty's appearance of this picture was not easy. I remember when she was so panicked last time or when I suggested that she go on a diet, "Its nature causes the larger-scale abyss gate to self-collapse faster. This has a critical point. The abyss gate below the critical point will self-destruct after the world is destroyed, and the abyss above the critical point. The gate will collapse before polluting the world, and the self-destructive life of the gate of the abyss declines exponentially with its expansion, a five-light-year gate of the abyss ... "
"It may have collapsed as soon as it appeared," I now understand these conceptual things easily. "It may take away a large cosmic space before the collapse, but such a huge abyss door is too late. What harm it produces. "
Sandora bit her lip: "It's not just too late to cause harm. Theoretically, the door of the abyss is impossible to achieve this level, mathematically untenable. The method to cause hyperscale pollution is not a very large 'door', but Several abyss gates are superimposed, at least there are examples of the latter. Wait, Anthers, you said just now that this abyss gate divides stars and colonial planets ... into two? "
"Ah, yes, it's like a huge scar that cuts through the universe, ripping through the forty-sixth colony."
I realize this is not the case.
Abyss Gate—It has been impossible to
cut
any target after seeing it. This is determined by its geometry. The Abyss Gate looks like an absolutely flat circle, no matter what angle you look at It, it is all a flat circle, so how should a circle with a diameter of five light years cut a star system?
In the eyes of the observer, it will devour the galaxy like a black hole, because it will never create a "narrow wound" in the eyes of the observer.
"I confirm, is the shape of that abyss gate ~ EbookFREE.me ~ a circular opening?" Sandora asked, looking into Anthes' eyes.
"The hole? No, it's a rift, very neat, like a quilted eye, huge, five light-years across," Anthes draws a line with his hand, "the ends are closed There are 0.3 light-years at the widest point in the middle, which cut everything vertically on the path, and the celestial bodies around that eye became the first contaminated things. "
Sandora and I looked in shock.
"That's not the gate of the abyss!" Sandora said to me in a spiritual connection. "That's an abyss phenomenon I've never seen before!"
"What's the problem?" Anthes finally realized that the situation might be complicated, and asked curiously immediately.
"No, ancestors, please rest first," Sandora wasn't taking care of the other person's title at this time, and she used the "dead name" that made Anthers awkward. Then she pulled me His hand was about to leave. "We need to study with an expert. The information you provided is very useful."
"Oh, it's useful," Anthes nodded hesitantly, waving goodbye to us, "It's just useful ... you go and do it." (To be continued ...)
