Chapter 353: Old eden

In the virtual space, warships cannot be turned and cannot be separated early. That is to say, once it enters a warp-speed sailing state, the ship will go to dark at night, unable to brake or turn along the way. Of course, there is never a lack of bold people in the world, who change curvature in virtual space, and even artificially stop the speed engine, have appeared more than once in the history of interstellar voyages. They threatened to create miracles and change the status quo. However, without exception, these people never returned after entering the virtual space.
Although under warp speed, the spacecraft is not enough to interrupt the jump and escape from the virtual space by its own ability. However, if there is an interception device in the real universe, it can interfere with the spacecraft’s transition by reversing the warp force field, neutralize the space-time bubble, and make it escape from the virtual space and appear in the real universe.
This external interception behavior will have a certain negative impact on the spacecraft. Just like the "hard straight" in some video games, the ship's electrical system of the intercepted spacecraft is impacted and will be offline for a period of time.
One can imagine how unfavorable the situation would be if it were intercepted by an enemy ship during a warp speed. Therefore, between some important star systems on the borders of the national territory, the government will not hesitate to spend a lot of money to establish a warp interception chain.
Of course, warp interception chains cannot cover the whole country, they only exist in some important, or controversial or sensitive areas.
For example, in countries that signed an armistice agreement such as the Sulu Empire and the Monya Empire, the Aslam star system is 8.7 light years away from the Rotterdam star system of the Sulu Empire. In order to show their sincerity, the two sides could not help but drastically cut the garrison and warp speed interception equipment on the border line, and also opened up new trade channels.
In places like this, where the border situation is not very tense, governments of various countries will deploy large quantities of warp probes in light-years no man's land between the star systems. Like the warp intercepting device, the warp probe is also a copycat from Epsilon Technology. This small unmanned platform does not have the ability to intercept and attack. They have only one function. Once a spacecraft in a warp-speed sailing state passes its range of action, it will spend a very small amount of zero element resources and pierce the space-time bubble like a needle. Collect curvature, heading, special coding and other data, and then send these data to the nearest border observation station through the quantum communication terminal.
The computer at the observation station passes a certain algorithm. The general coordinates of the spacecraft leaving the virtual space can be calculated. Imagine if your whereabouts are known to the enemy, and then you arrange a warship to stand by and wait, what will happen? Think about it with your ass.
To sum up, in the war between countries, I want to play lonely deep, long-range attacks, beheading operations and so on. That is simply a dream. The most conservative and safe way of aggression is to fight head-to-head and fight tough ones. However, because there are a large number of space-based defensive weapon platforms on the border line and heavily guarded, the offensive side will inevitably pay several times the damage of the opponent if it wants to break through the defending border line.
The above not only involves the military level, but also applies to civil-level interstellar navigation. Therefore, talents such as Grant and Nehemiah will have this nervousness.
If there is a relay station in the Tianchao star area, then everything is easy to say. If not. It is necessary to make another plan and come up with a safe and secure method of smuggling.
Tang Fang knew their worries well. Hehe smiled: "I just went to the central control room of the ruins because of this. There are relay stations in the Tianchao star area."
"Here, these are the azimuth coordinates of the relay station." Tang Fang drew a series of interstellar coordinates on the multi-function pda and handed it to Nehemiah.
"Huh..." The two smiled at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. With the presence of a relay station in the Tianchao star area, the "zero element space effect field generator" can be used for super-curved navigation, which is fast, convenient, safe and reliable.
"What? I got it right." Nehemiah looked at Grant who was entering the coordinates into the star mapper and said, "This kid is already confident. I just didn't talk to us in detail."
The old man finished speaking and waited for a long time without hearing the response, and looked up. I saw Grant maintaining the input posture, staring at the star map projection in the sky with a dull expression. As if petrified.
"Huh?" Nehemiah swept up along his gaze, and when he looked at the area of ​​the star map where the bright spot was located, the dim old eyes shot two bright lights instantly, and they were stunned.
At this moment, Tang Fang, who had listened to the work report of the ship officer Yu Fei, happened to turn his head and look back at the two. Seeing this, he frowned: "Grant, what, is there something wrong?"
"Tang... Tang Fang, are you sure that the coordinates you gave me are correct?" Grant swallowed hard and said.
"Absolutely right, what? Is there a problem?" Not only did he remember the coordinate values, Emma also knew that if there was a mistake, she would definitely remind herself.
"You... watch it yourself." Grant casually pressed the "rotate" button, and the huge star map above his head was projected around, and the highlighted coordinate points appeared in front of Tang Fang.
Generally speaking, on this kind of local star chart, the distribution of star systems has no specific rules, and most of them are uneven. What is strange is that the bright spot appears in a gyroscopic nebula belt. This gyroscopic nebula is like an independent celestial system, with an isolation buffer zone between it and other star systems in the Tianchao region.
According to the scale of the star chart, the length of this isolation buffer is about 30 light-years, and there is no 30 light-year buffer with any large celestial bodies!
"This... is the'Lost Land'?" After looking at the star map for a long time, Tang Fang finally reacted.
The so-called "Lost Land" is actually what some people in the Hilumbel region call this gyroscopic celestial body. In addition, it has several other titles called "Eye of the Storm", "Atlantis", and "Old Eden".
This gyroscopic celestial body is the most prestigious and special existence in the Tianchao region. Just as its several titles describe it. "Atlantis"-the disappeared civilization; "Old Eden"-the holy land of ancient civilization; "The Eye of the Storm"-mysterious, A peril full of dangers; "Lost Land" ------ a deserted star sea island. These titles fully interpret the characteristics of top celestial bodies.
The "Lost Land" has contributed to the special existence of the Tianchao star area in the Hilumbel region.
The reason why the "Lost Land" is "lost" is not that people are willing to let it become a deserted island. They are really forced to keep it "lost".
In the entire Hilumbel region, which one does not know when talking about the "Lost Land"? Don't know which one? In terms of the cosmic environment. The most special thing about it is that, including the buffer zone, the "Lost Land" cannot sail at war speed within a range of more than 100 light years. which is. To reach the "Lost Land" from the outer star system, the 30-light-year journey of the isolation zone alone will not make it possible for humans to pass their entire life.
Can't make a warp jump. The speed of light is just a moat. With the existing technology of mankind, not to mention the speed of light, the speed of sublight is far beyond the reach. Therefore, relying solely on conventional flight and buffer zones, the human world is no different from the "Lost Land".
Let me talk about the meaning of "Atlantis". Yes, the "Lost Land" contains a lot of Ypsilon relics. Judging from the warships and building wrecks that have escaped from the "lost places" and travelled long distances, the "lost places" are more magnificent than all the relics of Epsilon discovered by humans so far, and compared to those scattered and scattered. The Epsilon energy processing plants, observation stations, supply ports, scientific research institutes and other facilities scattered in the universe make the "Lost Land" more like a city.
"Old Eden", as its literal meaning, is an unmanned sanctuary that has withered and declined in the long river of history. Totem worship has a long history. Even in today's human society, there are still some people who regard the Ypsilon as a god. Of course, it is not the illusory "god" of feudal superstition. It is the "god" that guided the previous development of human civilization. Since it is a city of "gods", it is understandable to name it "Eden". It's just the same as the relics of Ipsilon discovered in the past. This "god" city is also empty and turned into a yellow flower yesterday.
Regarding "people go to empty buildings", although human beings can't provide conclusive evidence. However, for more than 200 years, among the objects flying from the direction of "Lost Land", except for some warships and building wreckage, there has been no live visit by Ipsyron, which can indirectly prove the correctness of the speculation.
As for the "eye of the storm", the so-called "storm". It is the "nebula matter" outside the core of the gyroscope. The "nebula matter" mentioned here is not vacuum gas, dust clouds, etc. in the general sense, but nebula-like celestial bodies such as bright nebulae and dark nebulae formed with or without background light sources. It is based on the star system. It contains large dust clusters formed by the fragmentation of stars, planets, comets and other celestial bodies.
The composition of the dust mass is very complicated, because of the influence of position, core gravity, chemical reaction between the materials, etc. It will diffusely reflect light with different colors and brightness. From a distance, it looks like a cluster of nebulae, so it is called "nebula matter".
These "nebula matter" are like a fast-rotating top, orbiting around a fixed core at the center. Because these "nebula matter" look like a hurricane on the outside, the core of the top has the title of "eye of the storm".
At the beginning, the scientific community believed that the "eye of the storm" was a black hole, because only in this way, the dust clusters formed after the broken star system might be subjected to huge gravitational force and merge and infiltrate each other to form a storm posture.
However, after a period of observation, based on the ray information, the trajectory of "nebula matter", and the characteristics of massive celestial bodies, a lot of demonstration work has been carried out, and it is concluded that the core of the gyro is not a black hole, nor is it a neutron star or a supergiant star. Such a celestial body is a brand new unknown celestial body.
Some people suspected that it was an epsilon artifact, an artificial celestial body. But... this view doesn't make sense, after all, who would be willing to destroy their own city, even civilization, to build such a destructive celestial body.
Ancient civilization, space Bermuda, mysterious and unpredictable, heralding destruction, just like a hurricane...Whether it is "Lost Land" or "Old Eden", "Eye of the Storm", "Atlantis" and other names, In short, human beings are both fearful, curious, and yearning for the mysterious land over the end of the world.
In fact, the term "eye of the storm" has another meaning today, 200 years later. After nearly 200 years of observation, people have confirmed one thing. Not all the relics of the ancestors that escaped from the dust mass came from across the ocean. Some of them appeared on the edge of the buffer zone. The dramatic fluctuations in the curvature of time and space indicate that these relics crossed the buffer zone for more than 30 light-years by means of warp jumps and even wormhole travel.
What does an Ypsilon city represent? Represents a huge scientific and technological mine, who is not jealous? Who doesn't want to get it soon? For ordinary people, a complete relic (such as the universal force field generator on Lord Lancelot's "Silver Wheel") will bring coveted wealth and status. For one force, that is the capital of Star Wars. Ever since, these 200 years. Countless groups, organizations, and individuals tried their best to cross the buffer zone and reach the golden beach on the other side.
however. A warship enters the virtual space no matter from which coordinate point and with what curvature. Frozen is that no warship has returned safely. About 30 years ago, a cargo ship sailed into the airspace at the edge of the buffer zone to avoid enemy hunting, only to find a piece of warship wreck. According to the ship number on the surface of the wreck, it turned out to be sailing to the "Lost Land" more than 100 years ago. "A member of the treasure hunt.
This scene tells people that those "sha" explorers have not disappeared for 200 years. All have died, no one knows what they have experienced. Among all kinds of speculations, the scientific community prefers an explanation. Those people have encountered time and space storms, and the buffer zone looks like smoke and waves, but in fact, under the calm surface is dark tides and crises.
The term "eye of the storm" also has a purely symbolic meaning. Added a touch of heavy murder.
However, although it represents death and destruction, it still attracts a large number of adventurers and speculators. "Lost Land" is like a very sexy, very charming catwalk female model, maybe one day on a whim, she will take off her underwear, thongs, etc. and throw it into the audience. Which gentleman with normal sexual orientation Can you resist this temptation?
On the other hand, the existence of "Lost Land" also indirectly contributed to the establishment of a free market.
...
"Yes, it's the'Lost Place'." Grant shook his head helplessly: "It's still the Central District near the core."
At this time, Nehemiah also recovered from shock. Some of the sparse eyebrows were twisted into a ball, worryingly: "I thought it would be safe to take the relay station line. But I didn't expect this to be the case. Tang Fang, what do you think? Is it a risk? Or find another way?"
"No wonder there was a long delay when connecting to the relay station in the Tianchao star area before. It turned out that the other end was located in the'Lost Land'. In those areas, this abnormality makes sense." Tang Fang did not rush to answer. .
The level of science and technology of the Ypsilon people far surpasses that of human beings, and they have done well in the security field.
Transportation hub equipment such as relay stations is similar to railway stations in the Earth Age. A slight negligence by the person in charge of dispatching may cause incalculable consequences. Therefore, before the warship operates the "Nero-Particle Space Effect Field Generator" for hyper-curve transition, it will send a transition request to the target relay station. Before the relay station receives the request and sends a response, it will conduct a wormhole traffic test at the quantum level. Only when the traffic environment meets the standard will it send feedback information.
In other words, the relay station in the Tianchao star area has tested the traffic environment before launching the azimuth coordinate value, and the safety is guaranteed.
Thinking about it carefully, there is a big difference in nature between hyper-curved speed transition and ordinary curved speed sailing. Ordinary warp speed navigation uses the construction of space-time bubbles, which distorts the space in front and expands the space in the rear, thus forming a virtual space-time, advancing faster than the speed of light like a wave. Although the hyper-curved speed transition bears the name of "curved speed", it is essentially different from the normal speed of sailing. It uses the wormhole principle to build a subspace continuum tunnel to achieve the purpose of superluminal interstellar travel.
Of course, in the Ypsilon civilization, the term "super-curved transition" does not exist. It is a term coined by Tang Fang in order to allow Grant, Kleiya and others to feel the power of the "zero element space effect field generator" more intuitively.
To sum up, the "Lost Land" may not be able to sail at a fast speed, but it does not mean that it cannot jump at a fast speed.
Furthermore, the courageous will die, and the timid will starve to death. The relay station is located in the middle of the "Lost Land", a sanctuary where many people want to go in their dreams but have no ability to go.
A city of Ypsilon, UU reading www.uukanshu.com does not mention how many ancestral technology products such as universal stand-generating devices are contained in it. The temptation of "unlocking the Protoss Technology Tree" alone cannot be resisted by Tang Fang. of.
"Do you believe me?" After a moment of indifference, he suddenly raised his head and swept everyone around him.
"Of course." Grant didn't even think about it, and replied casually: "You saved everyone's life on the Morningstar. Even if you tell them that God is gay, no one doubts it."
"That's good." Tang Fang nodded, "Everything is going as planned."
"Okay." Glenn Nodded, looked up at "The Lost Place", and asked casually: "Uncle Nehemiah, are you afraid?"
"What are you afraid of?" Nehemiah glanced at him and said angrily: "When did the kid do something unsure? What's more, is the'Lost Land' a place where most people can go if they want? A handful of old bones, with such an opportunity, it is too late to be happy, how can I be afraid."
"Hahaha...Uncle Nehemiah is as bold as ever."
