Chapter 155: find coordinates
"Isn't there any further response? Then why did you take the initiative to send us a signal?" The slender fingers of the purple humanoid creature tapped on the armrest of the throne.
Perhaps the signal was the work of an individual, then discovered by a collective body on the planet, cutting off the transmission.
If this is the case, then the civilization of this planet has not yet been able to carry out interstellar navigation, or the individual life on this planet has not yet emerged as a strong person who can directly traverse the universe.
Then the humanoids immediately thought of another question.
How did they transmit the signal into the dark side of the universe? Even if civilization reaches the point where it can support interstellar travel, it may not be able to discover the dark side of the universe. If a civilization does not have the technology to break open space into the dark side of the universe, it is impossible to send signals to the dark side of the universe.
The dark side of the universe: a mysterious and unpredictable space in which time and space will be distorted. No one knows its source, no one knows its nature.
At the same time, this space covers the entire universe, no matter where in the universe, as long as there is a way to break the space, you can enter it. Because of this, some civilizations believe that this space is actually the other side of the universe, so it is called the dark side of the universe.
With the continuous development of civilization, some civilizations have begun to use the dark side of the universe to be everywhere, and space and time will be distorted for interstellar travel. The characteristics of the dark side of the universe make it more convenient for civilization to explore this vast universe, and it no longer takes at least a hundred years for each exploration plan as in the early stage of exploration.
At the same time, the cosmic civilization has discovered a characteristic of the dark side of the universe. This characteristic can become a powerful weapon for civilization, or it can become a monster that destroys a civilization. That is, the spirit of the intelligent race will be directly projected onto the dark side of the universe, and the spirit of the same civilized creature will gather together under the drive of a certain force.
When this kind of spiritual gathering accumulates to a certain level, all kinds of strange things will form. Some of these spiritual aggregates are living things, some are dead things, some have extremely high intelligence, and some only have instincts, they are called civilization avatars.
And whether these figurative objects of civilization are good or bad for civilization mainly depends on spiritual products such as the ideas and beliefs of intelligent races in the civilization. Civilization is full of darkness and oppression, and the figurative object of civilization born is likely to be a monster. If civilization had a religion that the vast majority of people believed in, their beliefs would come alive from the dark side of the universe.
The figurative objects of civilization are all kinds of strange, with all kinds of unexpected magical functions. The interstellar society defines these civilization figurines as high-risk items, because most of them will directly or indirectly destroy their own civilization. After destroying their own civilization, instead of dissipating, they completely came to life.
These real avatars have various names, the most common of which are God and Chaos.
In the cognition of the economy and society, there are active civilization figurines and their dangers, they will consciously or unintentionally lead civilization into a dead end and let it be destroyed. On the other hand, the figurative objects of civilization without any activity are relatively safe. As long as you understand its rules, you can use them at will.
After thinking for a few minutes, the humanoid creature suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and he thought of a possibility.
The way to enter the dark side of the universe does not necessarily have to break open space, there will be a strange crack somewhere in the universe. And this crack connects the dark side of the universe and the material universe, and you can enter the dark side of the universe without breaking the space at all.
Thinking of this, the humanoids became very excited. With a little improvement, this kind of crack can become a huge stargate! And a stargate symbolizes that the galaxies near the stargate are all exploitable transportation resources.
Every new stargate will start a huge war in the universe, and powerful civilizations will try their best to take this stargate as their own.
This is mainly because the universe is too vast, the distance between planets and planets, and the distance between galaxies is too far. Even at the speed of light, interstellar travel requires a medium planetary turnaround.
When the dark side of the universe is not discovered, all civilizations have encountered a problem, that is, the problem of resources and the problem of territory. The universe is indeed huge, with countless planets, and these planets contain various resources.
But just because the universe is so big, civilization wants more resources and territories to maintain the development of civilization, so it can only develop the resources of this galaxy. The various resources of other galaxies can of course be developed, but the distance between galaxies and galaxies is too far.
To develop resources, let's not talk about the long interstellar voyage, the energy consumed by simply going back and forth may be higher than the value of the resources transported back.
To establish alien colonies, communication can allow the central parent star to always get the situation of the alien colonies. But if the alien colony rebels, the central home planet will not have time to support it. By the time the Central Fleet arrives at the rebel colony, either the rebellion has been suppressed, or the rebels are ready for a decisive battle with the Central Fleet.
In this case, the stargate is of great significance. Whether it is in the development of resources or the **** of colonies, it has an extremely huge role. Colonial rebellion, the center can directly enter the dark side of the universe through the star gate, suppress the rebellion in a very short period of time, and the same is true for resource development.
"Call other warships, turn on the lowest power space resonator, and find the weakest place in the nearby space." The humanoid ordered, the closer to the stargate, the weaker the space.
"Yes!"
An hour later, 8 starships with a length of seven or eight kilometers arrived from other places. These starships have different shapes, such as three-pronged, diamond-shaped, round, and even an interstellar composed of living beings. fly. They are all very large without exception, and the smallest length is 6 kilometers.
All the interstellar spacecraft activated the space resonator, and an inexplicable wave struck the surrounding space. After a few hours of extensive search, as expected, they found that the space in this place is relatively fragile compared to other places.
……
Over time, the atmosphere in all the countries of the first world has become extremely festive. The streets and alleys are covered with red lanterns, and the doors of every household are covered with couplets.
5398 Years of the Great Summer Calendar, January 24th. Tomorrow is the Beginning of Summer Festival, the grandest, most lively and most important ancient traditional festival in all the countries of the First World.
The Beginning Summer Festival originated in the tribal era of the Daxia civilization and was founded by Xiazu. In the beginning, this festival was called the Spring Festival, but gradually the main purpose of this festival became the worship of Xiazu, so it was renamed the Beginning Summer Festival.
The beginning of summer: It means the origin of the big summer, and it symbolizes that Xiazu is the origin of the big summer.
In fact, not only today is the most important and grand festival in all the countries of the First World, but some parts of the Second World also celebrate a festival similar to the Beginning of Summer. The names of their festivals vary, but the content is basically the worship of ancestors.
Before the outbreak of the First World War, every country in the world sent a large number of people to Daxia Dynasty to learn the advanced technology and advanced system of Daxia people. And these people who have successfully returned to their own countries will also bring back part of Daxia's culture and living habits.
Since then, all civilizations in the world have slowly started to celebrate the beginning of summer. It's just that their festival is not to worship Xiazu, but to worship their ancestors.
An ancestor-worship culture developed around the world until after the Second World War. With the rise of the Church of the Sun, and the intentional efforts of countries around the world to go summer, people from all over the world will no longer celebrate the beginning of summer, except for a small number of regions.
At night, the palace, the exclusive land for the Spring Festival Gala.
A semi-circular stage made of special materials, this stage is very huge, with a radius of 20 meters. The stage is surrounded by a row of stone chairs made of quartz and carved with various exquisite patterns. Each of these stone chairs has a history of thousands of years and is maintained by specialized personnel every year.
At this time, these stone chairs are already full of people, including politicians, soldiers, and scientists... Each of them is the top person in various fields of the Eastern Xia Empire and the Southern Xia Democratic Republic.
Xia Xuan was wearing a dark golden dragon robe and sat on the main seat. Sitting around him were members of the royal family, his grandfather, father, several uncles, and a young girl, Xia Ling.
Xia Ling's position was a bit special. Its position was not placed according to the traditional rules, but was placed directly beside Xia Xuan. At the same time, she was not sitting on a stone chair, but a wooden chair engraved with various cloud patterns.
Xia Ling was originally not qualified to sit here, but Xia Xuan saw the eager look on the girl's face, so she opened her mouth to add a seat to her.
Everyone sat quietly on the stone chairs, looking ahead, waiting for the hour to come.
All the people in the first world looked at the time, and tacitly counted down the last 10 seconds.
"10! 9! 8! 7! 6... 2! 1! 0 Happy Summer Beginning!"
thump
A quaint bell full of the breath of time rang, and the long bell rang through the entire palace.
Immediately afterwards, a faint golden light began to appear in the entire palace, and two incomparably huge five-clawed golden dragons slowly formed.
Roar!
The sacred and deep dragon roar sounded, and two five-clawed golden dragons rose into the sky and roared in the sky Then these two sacred dragons suddenly exploded into countless particles of light. Then these light particles began to gather and turned into a big summer flag and a bright red black dragon flag.
The next moment, countless fireworks in the Eastern Xia Empire and the Southern Xia Democratic Republic rose into the sky and exploded in the sky, and brilliant sparks illuminated the dark sky.
Countries around the world who saw this scene through the Internet were a little dazed. After hundreds of years, this banner appeared again. All countries vaguely understood what the two golden dragons exploded and turned into the flag of the Great Summer Dynasty.
The two golden dragons are the Eastern Xia Empire and the Southern Xia Democratic Republic. Their explosion indicates that the two countries will disappear completely and reintegrate.
This special effect cost more than 30 million Xia Yuan, which is five times as much as in previous years, but in terms of effect, it is still very good.
……
The state banquet officially started, and countless palace maids placed the dishes on the stone table in front of the people attending the state banquet. At this time, the huge stage has become the scene required for various performances under the projection technology.
At the same time, in order to make the scene more realistic, the stage will also change its shape according to the change of projection.
On the stage, the performers performed their own shows with great earnestness, and they practiced their own shows day and night for this day and night. This stage is the highest glory of the performers and their lifelong dream.
There are now at least 4 billion people watching the show, and at least 5 billion people if you count the number of people who broadcast it to the second world. As long as you stand on this stage, your fame will spread all over the world in an instant, which is why this stage is the dream of all performers.
