Information tide is a very broad term, and many phenomena can be called this. We must first understand Apostle Xiling's "Unity of Information" theory and the concept that everything is information, and then it will be easy to understand what information tide is.
In the void, the information tide is those information fluctuations that fluctuate violently and have a large range. The void is zero, so any information that appears is "non-zero" (this is why everything is lower than the void). This kind of non-zero information
Violent turbulence is the information tide, genesis, the end of the world, the creation or collapse of large-scale order fields, and the evaporating fragments of the world. All the above phenomena can be classified into one category.
We are now on the edge of the wave of destruction, so we are naturally facing the last scenario: an extra-large and "evaporating" world fragment appears in the fleet's early warning radar, and it is visually estimated that it is about to hit.
"Wow, I really didn't expect that the first piece of cosmic debris we discovered would appear in such a high-profile way," Sandora and I immediately teleported back to the command hall of the Imperial Admiral and looked at the display on the central holographic projection.
The size of the world fragments appeared, and I suddenly exclaimed in amazement, "...it is almost the size of a star system, and it is a material-rich zone. There may be celestial bodies in it. Should we avoid it or..."
"Let's hit it," Sandora decided happily. "The fleet's protection is very strong. With such a large-scale joint shield, it won't be a problem for mere world fragments to collide. Just take this opportunity to study it up close.
, maybe we can know what the true nature of the wave of destruction is. Tavel, get your team ready, put all kinds of equipment online, and we are ready to do scientific research."
Bingtis happened to fall out of the portal at this time (I don't know what state she was in when she teleported here, anyway, she fell from mid-air), and she jumped up when she heard Sandora's words:
"Damn it, your scientific research spirit is so crazy!"
"Xiling's characteristics, Xiling's characteristics," I could only wipe the cold sweat from my forehead and giggle with Bingtis. "By the way, you're here too?"
"Nonsense, I am also a senior leading cadre after all," Bingtis puffed up her chest, "There are several people behind me, all coming to see what the world fragments that collided with this time look like. Lin Xue said that this time the scale is quite large, and
Very interesting.”
Bingtis's face is still so incredible. This guy who wanders around the ecological zone and the ship city all day long, and has not been here to stand guard for ten days, can actually say "senior" in front of Sandora and I.
"Leading cadre". However, I have adapted to this female gangster. I pretend that I don't hear anything when it goes in my left ear and out my right ear, which effectively controls the secretion of adrenaline. When Bingtis finished speaking, several portals also appeared.
The officer's platform unfolded, and Qianqian and her sister emerged from the portal one after another. Finally, there were the remaining four of the five-person group of protoss... This is where the idlers who had been bored for the past few days finally found something to do.
Right?
"Finally something fun! Finally something fun!" Qianqian ran around me twice as if she was running away, and finally hung on my arm, "It's so boring these days, Ajun, you're so stupid
I don’t even want to spend time with others when I’m bored here..."
Qianqian is indeed bored these days, and I quite understand this. It has been ten days since the Royal Fleet left the Imperial Area, and it has not even made a single stop during this period. We have taken the most desolate road in the void. So far we have only
Encountered a stunted chaotic universe, and it was also a boring world that had evolved to the dusk stage. In the words of the little crow, it was "too narrow to even drag it back to use as a nest." The basic activity of the imperial fleet during these ten days was to walk along.
While setting up an outpost development station, we occasionally slow down and release some detectors, and then all the experts and scholars stare at the noise coming back from the detectors for half an hour, and then continue on their way. Do you think this can cause trouble?
Qianqian can only join in the fun, but others still have to do business. One of Tavel's mass projections is standing on the officer's platform. This is a mission integrating scientific research and exploration. So Tavel, as the chief scientist
She also wanted to stand here and act as a consultant. She checked the signals from various early warning radars again and reported confidently: "The course has been confirmed. Our fleet will collide head-on with the world debris. The estimated impact time is ten minutes later. This is a one-time collision."
This is an exciting research opportunity, and I am very grateful to His Majesty for his wise decision at this moment."
Sandora smiled slightly: "I'm also looking forward to it."
Only Bingtis was still beside him and muttered: "Damn it, your research style hasn't changed in hundreds of millions of years. Is it too late to get off the ship now?"
"If you can still catch up with the main force, it doesn't matter if you jump now," I patted the female gangster (she is already my girlfriend, isn't it a bit bad to continue to describe it like this?) on the shoulder, and then looked up at the big projection.
Countdown on the page. "Let Little Crow watch outside the Order Field. Maybe he can track the 'direction' from which the world fragments came."
The little crow is lying on the railing next to it, stretching its neck to look out. This girl retains the habits of a wild bird. She likes to fly around and does not want to be trapped in a cage. Now I heard that there is a "fresh and fun big bird"
"Toy" was about to appear, and she was already eager to try it. She immediately became excited when she heard my words. She only heard a "ga" sound, and the bird was about to fly out, but I held her head down at the last moment: "
Don't be busy yet, go to the Engineering Academy and put on your 'armor'."
The armor I'm talking about is Little Crow's external equipment. Before this silly bird can cure her astigmatism, an external radar is still necessary. She can carry several workstations to outside the order field to take aerial photos of this unprecedented spectacle.
footage of a car crash.
The little crow reluctantly made a "quacking" sound, but the excitement of being able to "fly out to play" still outweighed the unhappiness in her heart. She nodded to me, and then disappeared on the officer's platform in the blink of an eye.
A few minutes later, a frigate ejection channel at the end of the Imperial Admiral's transverse arm opened, and a little crow, covered in super equipment and looking like the final boss of a science fiction hybrid, rushed out of the ejection channel with a stream of purple light. This
The girl really thought she was launching herself as a spaceship. When she rushed out of the ejection channel, she specially created a stream of light behind her tail, pretending to be the afterimage left by the lights of the spaceship. Optimistically, I estimate that this bird will have cognitive impairment for the rest of its life.
It cannot be cured, she has broken through the boundary between living things and non-living things, and now she thinks she is a boat...
Less than a minute after Little Crow left the order field, the shipboard broadcast issued the final warning before the impact: "Attention, it is confirmed that large-scale information has contacted the order field of our fleet, the fusion-impact process has begun, and all personnel are prepared to resist.
Prepare for impact."
A brilliant brilliance first burst out from the front of the Order Field.
World fragments are different from normal space fragments. It is not a simple agglomeration of matter or energy. For a world fragment that is large enough and has not completely evaporated, its structure is as follows: its core is lingering.
In the normal area, the residual energy and matter of a certain universe are temporarily stable in a small stable area; beyond that is the turbulent transition area, where the collapsed laws are entangled with the material, energy, and space that are undergoing violent degeneration.
A chaotic storm is formed that surrounds the debris; the outermost layer is the "evaporation layer". After the destruction, the universe is assimilated at high speed in the void. It disappears sharply like dry ice that sublimates rapidly at normal temperature, but we are still accustomed to calling this process
"Evaporation". This "evaporation layer" no longer has any stable information structure. It is not matter, nor energy. Sometimes it cannot even be called chaos. It is just a large group of meaningless information. It looks like a flower but not energy.
Flower, like a shadow but not a shadow - this mass of information is an instantaneous intermediate state falling from non-zero to zero, and it cannot enter the order field.
The bright light that is currently erupting at the front of the order field is caused by the evaporation layer. The world fragments collide with the order field. The mathematical environment of the evaporation layer and the order field creates a violent conflict, resulting in a brilliant visual effect. However, this visual effect is mainly about order.
Produced by the stress reaction of the field itself, the evaporation layer itself is actually invisible to the naked eye in the order field. That ball of light can be said to be the last candle that proves its existence.
"Although your research method is crazy, it is really spectacular." Bingtis held up a pergola and looked at the scene on the holographic projection. Now that brilliant light curtain is spreading rapidly, this oncoming feeling is really thrilling.
The order field is a huge oval space, like an elliptical bubble floating in the void, and now the front of this elliptical bubble is rippling with circles of colorful patterns, indescribable colors along the order
The edge of the field spread quickly, as if the entire fleet was falling into an extremely huge colorful vortex. This scene did not last long. After the world fragments came into contact with the order field, the evaporation layer would soon be consumed. It only took a few seconds.
Minutes later, something phantom-like appeared in front of our eyes.
They look like huge meteorites, but their structures and shapes are obviously more complex than meteorites. These incoming phantoms are only a hundred or ten meters in size, but are several kilometers or even hundreds of kilometers in size. They appear out of thin air in the order field.
Heading towards the direction of the fleet, I soon saw what these things were: they were actually fragments of a star that had been blown apart.
A certain planet was torn apart by the aftermath of the end of the world and turned into a large group of newly born meteorites. However, this group of meteorites was swallowed up by the torrent of information confusion before it could withstand the polishing of the years. Now they have lost their entity and become.
Like phantoms, these phantoms record the last moments of a certain world - but they are still just phantoms.
"Want something exciting?" Sandora suddenly remembered something, showed me a mischievous smile, and then ordered to the command seat below, "Don't filter these phantoms, let them crash directly."
So the next second I knew what Sandora meant by "something exciting". The overwhelming space boulders really hit the imperial fleet without any hindrance! Although they had no entity after all, they could not cause any harm to the fleet.
Damage, but these illusory shadows directly penetrated the shield and armor of the spacecraft, sweeping over without any hindrance. They passed through the spacecraft, and naturally passed through each of our bodies - well, this scene is really
It was so exciting, I felt like I was rushing towards the Kuiper Belt at sub-light speed, and my brakes failed and I failed to turn, crashing through hundreds of asteroids in a straight line!
In a short period of time, the command hall of the Imperial Admiral was swept over and over again by huge phantom meteorites. There were shadow boulders flying by everywhere around us. We were far away just now, so we didn’t see them. It turned out that they were so dense.
Of?
But this thing just looks spectacular. Everyone present has been trained in a hail of bullets, and their nerves are as strong as steel. The mere visual impact can only relieve our boredom. Of course Sandora also knows this,
She just wanted this glorious impact to clear away the dull atmosphere that had accumulated in the past half month. It turned out that her simple and crude method of adjusting the atmosphere was quite effective - Bingtis wielded the meteor hammer in a vigorous manner.
Ready to pounce on Sandora: "You are crazy! It's fun to scare people, right?"
In fact, there was no frightened expression on the female gangster's face at all. Her movements only proved that she had regained her vitality.
A female man takes too much medicine and feels fierce! Strong! Da!
That's pretty much what it means.
However, we cannot continue to play like this after these phantoms float past, because this impact has already entered the middle stage. The core part of the world fragment is contacting the order field of the imperial fleet.
The core part is the space-time that still maintains normal laws, where there are a large number of celestial fragments and crazy initial energy, and the huge power at the end of the universe is often partially bound in this area - they are the impact process
The really dangerous part is that many cross-border civilizations regard "encountering world fragments" as the biggest danger when exploring in the void. The main reason is that they may collide with these primordial energies. However, the joint shield of the imperial fleet can even prevent the end of the world.
Not afraid, and naturally not afraid of such a degree of impact, Sandora ordered to strengthen the shield reading. She also ordered each battleship to make its own judgment and clear out the celestial fragments or energy groups that hit them, while Tavel's expert team
Keep an eye on various sensing devices and prepare to analyze the impact.
Bingtis stared at the scene on the holographic projection and suddenly whispered: "Here we come!"
As she finished speaking, a storm appeared out of thin air in the order field.
This was a violent storm condensed by light and high temperature. The dazzling yellow-white "fire" light expanded from one point, and in an instant, a dazzling new star formed in front of the imperial fleet, and in this ball of light
, huge amounts of celestial fragments began to hit us like a torrential rain.
Light and heat are likely to be the power accumulated at the end of the universe, or they may be destroyed stars, or even the aftermath of the big bang at the beginning of the universe. In short, anything is possible. Because the end of the world will destroy the space-time structure of a world.
, causing all the "events" since its birth to be mixed together, regardless of order or location, it is not surprising that whatever phenomenon occurs in the end. And although those broken star fragments look like ordinary matter, they have already
Mutating in the torrent of information at the end of the world, they may be extremely fragile, or they may have the power of the origin of the world and unparalleled solidity. They may even become some kind of extraordinary material: in fact, this is how the original extraordinary material of the empire came from, in ancient times.
At that time, Xiling apostle scientists discovered some super-powerful products that were randomly combined with information from the end of the universe. They got inspiration and continued to create a perfect information structure at the mathematical level. Finally, they created the information structure that is widely used today.
Extraordinary alloys, extraordinary crystals and extraordinary XX people on various devices. This is why Tavel is so interested in studying this big collision. The end of the world is a disaster, but the fragments of the world after the end can often bring joy to people.
Come for a surprise. A huge amount of information is entangled due to the doomsday, and the mutation results produced by the random combination of macro parameters often amaze the imperial scientists.
But this time, in addition to studying the structure of the world fragments, Tavel also has a more important purpose, which is to determine whether the world fragments come from his home world - this is an absolutely desolate area. We have confirmed that this place is better than what other exploration teams have discovered.
The desolate area is a hundred times more desolate. You can't see much of the universe here, and the home world is in this "direction". At this time, a piece of universe debris floats in front of you... In fact, everyone mentioned it, but no one said it explicitly.
That's all.
Hopefully this fragment is not from the home world.
A group of work ships rushed out to intercept some of the material fragments. The energy skimmer installed on the top of the Imperial Admiral easily collected samples of those primordial energy, while other impactors were wiped out in the gunfire of the escort fleet, and the scene was beautiful.
Spectacular.
Looking at this scene, my sister couldn't help but muttered: "Well, is this the group of wreckage reported by the exploration team? It's so spectacular."
"Well, in fact, we should be the only ones who have encountered such a spectacular scene," Sandora continued next to her, with a slightly subtle tone, "The probability of colliding head-on with a world fragment in the void... Haha, the previous exploration teams have all
The wreckage was scanned only when the radar was fully turned on, but we suddenly hit one head-on. This pattern is very low and cannot be used as a reference."
"Anyway, if void creatures are present, any probability event is likely to happen," Bingtis patted me on the shoulder, "Event vortex, probability beacon, walking halo emitter, a magical species that can ward off evil even if it dies.
…”
I glared at the female gangster: "If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."
It seems that no matter how the relationship changes, I can't have the slightest hope in Da Bingye's moral integrity and character.
The impact process lasted for several hours, and the world fragments we encountered were indeed huge in scale. However, no civilization residues were found in the world fragments, and no other things with scientific research value appeared, so after collecting some samples
The fleet then discharged the remaining wreckage from the order field. Tavel's group of scientists completed the examination of the samples after some intense work.
There was a hint of excitement on Tavel's face when he sent the test report to me and Sandora: "It has been confirmed that this world fragment does not come from the home world, but weak information residues of the home world were found in the fragments. Our
