It's a letter, but it's actually more than that. There is a lot of messy information in the database. A rough directory shows that it contains scientific research projects, navigation logs, video materials, messages, and many other information, and all of this information has been
It is sealed in an encrypted file signed by Harlan Croix Levallette.
We looked at each other. Sometimes when faced with such dramatic things, even if we have long been used to it, we still can't think of what kind of expression to use to face it. This is as interesting as Sandora Kelvi Uracis.
Long names with a bit of classical aristocratic temperament often appear in the headquarters' documents recently: most of them are about the military strength analysis of the fallen apostle, Harlan Croix Levallette, which refers to the recent fierce battles with the emperor.
The fallen emperor, His Majesty Harlan, who has caused heavy casualties to us during the battle...
It was he who rescued the Green Star tens of thousands of years ago, and it was his general, Zadom, who sent the Green Star on his escape journey at the last moment. Tens of thousands of years have passed by, but history has taken a detour.
The two are connected again from another direction: Zadom, the former imperial general who personally served as Queen of the Green Star and allowed the tree elves to escape, is now coming to destroy the planet.
I don’t know what the mood of those two people is now. Will their frantic minds that have been controlled still feel sad?
"There's something wrong with the data?"
When the patriarch saw us looking at each other with strange expressions, she couldn't help but become extremely worried. What she was most worried about was whether these precious information had been damaged: the tree elves had spent tens of thousands of years for this, escorting these heritages from the territory of the old empire.
In the new empire, if there is really a problem with the data, it will be a huge blow to them.
"No, there's nothing wrong with the information. We thought of something else."
Sandora replied calmly, while shaking her head slightly at me: Don't tell them yet, the tree elves are not ready to accept such a blow. This is the message I saw in Sandora's eyes.
"Scientific research projects. There is only a directory, no substantive content such as results, and it is not scientific and technological information." Shandora began to read the information in the order of the directory. She put the letter left by Harlan at the end in order to read it later.
Studying them intently, "Maybe he wants to tell us what the last act of the old empire's plan was like before it completely went bankrupt. The navigation log. It's the Green Star's log, and part of it is the original route list. It seems that this
The planet has strayed far off course. Video... these will come later. Finally, these messages."
Sandora connected the message left by Harlan to the holographic projection. The malfunctioning holographic device shook a few times before the picture stabilized. A tall and burly figure wearing a majestic imperial dress and with thick brown hair appeared.
A middle-aged man appeared on the screen. He looked forward, holding an imperial command knife floating with psionic flames in his hand. This outfit looked familiar to everyone - it was the full outfit that the head of the empire would wear on official occasions.
"Whoever is able to obtain and read this information, I send you my regards and hope that you can keep this information forever until it can be put to use." The middle-aged man said calmly, "I
It is Harlan Croix Levalette, the leader of the Xiling Empire. I hope that those who obtain this information can still know this brilliant and glorious name.
The fact that you were able to obtain the information intact shows that these exiles finally successfully escaped from the circle of destruction, and their identification devices confirmed that you have the qualifications to contact the psionic energy, or have a heritage relationship with the empire. I personally hope it is the latter.
If you can contact the exiles and pass the identification system of the exile starship, then your civilization level should be high enough. But you will most likely still not be able to understand what I am going to say next, which does not matter. This is just a message.
The Xiling Empire is facing a crisis of destruction. This crisis is caused by ourselves. Its root and direct cause is the wrong research direction of the void and the uncontrollable explosion of the abyss. I would like to give you some advice on this: whether you have already
When you come into contact with these concepts, please keep one thing in mind - restraint. Under any circumstances, do not think that you really have control of everything. The void is more uncontrollable than you think.
If you have been in contact with the abyss - I don't know what you would call the latter, maybe a plague, a disaster, or something else, but the following phenomena can basically confirm them: the state of their main material world is an impossible state.
Explore the two-dimensional plane of the structure. This plane will be attached to any place, including the surface of the star. These things will then spread rapidly. The initial abyss infection will cause the contacts to be emotionally manic, the equipment will work abnormally, and accidents will occur frequently. The later abyss infection will
Disturbing the physical constants, the disaster escalates exponentially, until space itself collapses. This is a rapid and irreversible process. If you have ever been exposed to this kind of thing and escaped by chance, then I can tell you its name now: the abyss.
Please record the following content and save it until you come into contact with a civilization that can understand these contents - before starting those crazy research projects, we received an abnormal signal from the bottom of the abyss, yes, we went deep into the gate of the abyss, that
It was a routine scientific research mission into the phenomenon of the abyss. Scientists launched a new type of unmanned deep submersible ship. It advanced to a location in the gate of the abyss that no one had ever reached before. The deep submersible ship was destroyed by the abyss and succeeded.
The recording equipment was returned to the main material plane, and regular and significant signals appeared in the recording equipment.
These signals were not sent into the abyss by any means from the main material plane. We finally confirmed that these messages came from the bottom of the abyss, and no matter what existed there, it was trying to get in touch with the main material plane.
These signals make people feel confused and uneasy. The abyss has never shown such properties. Even those abyssal creatures with the ability to think have never produced similar logical or rational behaviors. It challenges our long-standing basic world view and
This led the empire to start a large number of advanced research. We are sure of one thing: the only way to know what is at the bottom of the abyss is to go and investigate. We built primitive deep-diving ships and various detectors, hoping to
We once again made contact with the voice at the bottom of the abyss, but everything progressed slowly. In the end, we decided to use the power of the void..."
What follows is a period of history that is already familiar to us. In fact, at that time, the empire had already launched a plan to study void knowledge on a large scale, and the information that scientists accidentally obtained from the bottom of the abyss gave the entire plan a shot of stimulant. Ha.
The incident mentioned by Lan was not the cause of the plan. It was the trigger that caused it to go out of control. The significance of the "abyss" to the empire is unprecedentedly huge. Yes, 80% of the existence of the entire Xiling Empire
The meaning is to fight against the abyss. Now that they saw the opportunity to crack the secret of this ultimate enemy, they immediately became excited. Projects that had been suspended due to excessive risks in the plan were relaunched, and the Xiling apostles were inspired by hatred and fighting spirit.
The subsequent actions were terrifying, that is, during the same period. Chief scientist Occam used the forbidden technology of the plan to create the first and last completed deep-diving ship. This ship was modeled on the original deep-diving ship and lasted for
After hundreds of years of research, the completed starship is the most advanced deep-diving equipment in the old empire. It was once close to a certain "critical point" calculated by scientists. This critical point is believed to be the farthest point that can directly communicate with the bottom of the abyss.
distance, although the deep-diving ship failed to cross the critical point in the end. However, it successfully sent out a communication at the deepest position: that was the strongest communication that could be carried out during the heyday of the old empire's technology. Under normal circumstances, I am afraid that
It is enough to broadcast to thousands of worlds, but deep in the abyss, no one is sure how far these signals can travel.
For a long time after that, scientists from the old empire waited at every abyss gate, hoping to get feedback from the bottom of the abyss again and get in touch with the mysterious signal source. During this period, the old empire completed countless seemingly
Brilliant technological achievements, and then shelved them after discovering that they could not be used at all. They created the Red Moon Cube and built a psionic starship to preserve the cube. They tried to control the evolution direction of the void in an attempt to make it like psionic energy.
Using the same method, in an inexplicable encounter, they also lost the deep-sea submersible - Viska should be responsible for this, but there was no way to pursue it, because the disaster happened not long after that.
The "letter" left by Harlan not only contains his own audio and video information, but also a series of video clips and various graphic tables. It seems that when he left this information, he tried his best to condense everything in the empire into this short message.
In just ten minutes, after the last video ended, his image appeared in front of us again: "Time is running out. I hope that the civilization that has obtained this information can properly preserve it and disseminate it as much as possible.
So that it can be spread to the kingdom of the gods - if you have the ability to talk to them. Now all our networks and external interfaces have been severely polluted by the abyss, and the empire's territory has become a circle of destruction infected with virulent poison. Anyone in this situation
Any act of external communication may cause the abyss to spread and even endanger the gods. The only hope is these border planets that have not been infected yet. They are about to set off now. There are thousands of backups of this information. I hope that at least one of them
One in a thousand can escape the disaster.
Harlan Croix Levalette, over."
The message ended, leaving only a mess of blue and white lines on the holographic projection.
Sandora was silent for a moment, then turned to ask Tavel's quality projection: "Tavel, have you finished downloading these materials?"
"It has been saved. There is actually not much information," Tavel replied quietly, "This is just a message."
"Compared to a bunch of scientific and technological information, I think this message is more valuable. How is the situation of the tree elves?"
"Some people have woken up, but their memories are stuck in thousands to tens of thousands of years ago - depending on the date of their slumber. Now these elves who have just woken up are very restless. Well, the commotion is obvious. It really doesn't look like those in the old empire.
The vassal race. The subordinates are gathering the awakened tree elves and preparing to send them to the home planet first. Lord Gaia has activated two ecological domes, which should allow them to recover faster. Then I am afraid it will take time for them to do it.
Understand the current situation.”
"Sister, please go over and help." I touched my sister, "Those imperial soldiers are not the material."
My sister agreed and ruffled my hair before leaving, with a doting look that made people helpless. She lay down next to me, put her head on my arm, and looked around again with her big eyes.
It took me a while before I said, "Ajun, I'm in a bad mood."
"This way the timeline is basically clear." Sandora turned off the projection equipment, sat back on the chair, and looked up at the sky. "This is a new discovery. We never thought of it before... Before the deep-diving ship appeared, someone came from
An active communication request was received inside, and then the era of out-of-control imperial planning began. What on earth is in the abyss?"
I rubbed my forehead and connected one thing in chronological order, finally forming a clear line: During the heyday of the empire, the Xiling Apostle launched a plan to research the void. In the early stage, this plan was bold but still controllable.
, the scientists maintained the necessary sanity, and then, a new type of detector that routinely probed the Gate of the Abyss returned and brought back text messages sent from the bottom of the abyss, and then the scientists and rulers of the empire were inspired by this.
, suddenly accelerated the progress of the plan, and all projects began to develop in extreme directions. Black technology began to be allowed to be used, and the Red Moon Cube was built. Then, Occam built a deep submersible ship to try to communicate with the signal from the bottom of the abyss.
There must have been many similar experiments during the same period. Afterwards, Occam's scientific research army was attacked by Visca's rebels, and the deep-diving ship was destroyed. It seems that the empire has never been able to create a second weapon since then.
A deep submersible ship, and then a catastrophe occurred.
The empire was silent for many thousands of years, until one day in 1990, a snotty-nosed kid heard a sound at the entrance of the alley, and the wheel of fate continued to move forward - and fell into the ditch without hesitation.
More than ten years later, a new empire was established.
"I suddenly thought of something - more than ten years ago, I once encountered an abyss. Well, it was a phenomenon that was suspected to be an abyss." I slowly tapped my temples, recalling what I had recalled on the wall of the Temple of Life.
Childhood memories, "I heard a sound at that time. We always thought it was the message sent by Occam's deep submersible. After echoing in the abyss for many thousands of years, it suddenly emerged from a certain abyssal fissure in the earth.
Come out, now I feel there is something suspicious in this."
Sandora nodded, she had already thought of certain facts: "According to your memories and the log we got from the deep-diving ship, the two sentences are actually different. What you heard is another version."
"So that was not the sound of the deep submersible ship, but the response of something at the bottom of the abyss after receiving the communication from the deep submersible ship: it was answering us."
"It's a pity that it's tens of thousands of years late." Lin Xue's tone was quite emotional.
"Now it's up to them to wait for the response again," Sandora suddenly showed a weird smile, "What exactly is at the bottom of the abyss - we thought at first it just received the broadcast from the deep-diving ship, and then amplified it and fed it back, but
Now the situation is almost the opposite, they were the ones who sent the message first, and the empire was the one who responded."
"Hey, has anyone thought of something else?" Qianqian wandered for a few minutes, then suddenly came back to her senses. Something extraordinary seemed to appear in her magical head, "The plan is to
The old empire appeared normally before receiving the information from the Abyss for the first time. It was only after the detector brought back that information that the whole thing got out of control. I think maybe the plan was already affected by the Abyss at that time... That's it.
With the help of that piece of information, the abyss was hidden in that piece of information. It has been lurking since then, slowly affecting the plan and the scientists. In the last experiment, the void directly decayed into a super abyss. Maybe it was this
The seeds hidden in the information finally grew and burst out of the ground."
When Qian Qian said these words, I didn't know if it was an illusion, but I always thought her tone was so gloomy.
One thing she said is believable, that is, the Abyss may really be hidden in a piece of information, saved by the detector's database, and then contaminate the Imperial scientists when others read the database. After all, it can contaminate
All known things, under the void, no one is 100% immune to the abyss.
"This is impossible," Sandora shook her head. "Do you know how many security barriers there will be in the hinterland of the empire? If it was really hidden in the message back then, it should have disappeared the moment the detector data core was salvaged.
It was eliminated. And it has been lurking in the minds of so many scientists for a long time: this is even more impossible."
"But it came up from the bottom of the abyss," Qianqian reminded, "No one has ever been close there. Who knows whether the abyss there is very cunning and disguises itself as an ambassador of peace or something."
We suddenly felt hairy all over. Qianqian, this girl, usually kept her mind running on the road of digressions. Occasionally, when she thought about normal issues, she was able to hit the point so magically. If her guess was really right, then what happened back then?
The empire was destroyed by a text message?
"Well, Your Majesty, I'm afraid my subordinates have something to report now," Tavel's mass projection suddenly interjected. Her body was processing the database far away, and this mass projection stayed here to report the situation to us. "
We just found a piece of information from the database, which is the piece of information they received from the bottom of the abyss, and... it's the original."
Suddenly, the surrounding atmosphere became even more hair-raising.
"Now," Qian Qian raised her hand weakly, "now it's in our hands."
