Star Empire - Chapter 549 Extra——[Some conjectures about the environment and the void]

[This extra chapter corresponds to two relatively specific sections – contact with the Will of the Void after contacting the Ring Federation, and after the completion of the bridge building, before the large-scale counterattack of the Chaos Sea. 】

From the eyes of Void Will, or the “incarnation” of “Gou Chen” and Void Will, he felt something different…”

A drop of oil fell on the sea and expanded into a thin film. One day, a molecule suddenly became interested and decided to take a look at the things around him that he might have never been interested in seeing before, or might not be able to see. Things that are seen.

Looking up, he saw the sky.

Looking down, he saw the sea.

…

The historic moment that ushered in after the two sides of the Taiwan Strait crossed the barrier that transcended all time and space, all concepts and laws, and that could not be fully measured despite all descriptions, has passed, and the two sides of the emptiness have been connected.

The catastrophe is no longer irreversible.

According to the historical records of the gods, the Federation had already begun the final emergency expansion process tens of billions of years ago. The gods and kings mobilized the most elite forces and sent countless advance troops radially away from the Federation. Regardless of the cost, approach the depths of the void at the highest void speed. As the fleet moved forward, it left behind facilities and “eyes” that contained divine will. The number of these self-increasing facilities continues to expand, and they bring countless worlds into the sphere of influence of the gods to ensure that those worlds will not instantly return to zero due to cataclysms.

The number of recorded worlds continues to grow, and it is even said that in this process, the total number of orders of magnitude that has been difficult to grow has begun a new expansion, but for the endless void, for the true infinity… this is still insignificant. , is infinitely close to a fraction of zero.

Right now, it is the most peaceful moment in the void before a new storm comes.

Within and outside the empire, countless parts of the order began to celebrate in their own way this event that may not even be historic. Customs and habits are different, and their celebration methods and corresponding “starting points” are naturally very different. This is true for countless groups and civilizations inside and outside the empire.

Joy and celebration pave the way for the current relaxed atmosphere in countless ordered worlds and countless universes in the void, but that is just the appearance left to all living beings.

The federal army was mobilized silently, and countless civilizations and wisdom were fully prepared to deal with the impact of a new round of high-intensity chaotic seas. Countless powerful warriors and fleets cooperated with each other and advanced into the distant depths of the void.

According to the research of divine scholars, even if the Long Bridge in the Void is built, the intensity of the catastrophe will only be weakened, and the catastrophe will still occur. The cataclysm will erase all worlds that are not marked by void creatures, and the bottom line of this mark is to interact with various civilizations in the star ring.

Cataclysms will occur first in places that have not been seen, recorded, and confirmed. And when it will happen and what the circumstances will be, I am afraid that even the gods cannot know it at the first time.

After that, a new era will begin, but the aftermath will not dissipate directly. The discontinuous zones will eventually break through the exit of the chaotic sea. They may cause long-term and large-scale chaotic sea disasters in the void.

We must be alert to the emergence of large-scale fault zones – if a fault zone that is large enough to swallow the branches of the world finally takes shape, then not to mention approaching it, fighting it, just knowing its existence may cause huge casualties.

The empire has understood the kingdom of gods, the order of gods and the will of the gods, but they? Them? It was also very frank – this frankness made the two civilizations “accept” each other incredibly fast at the time.

The fighting methods of the gods can be said to be diverse. Different techniques and different understandings of order and reality determine that the gods can use countless powers and start from countless paths and move towards the truth. The gods also have fleets, and the gods can also fight with phenomena and properties. The gods can also stack their glory layer by layer until the end of the world of order. Among the gods, there are also individuals who are powerful enough – the world of order in the void can even be said to be insignificant to these gods. As long as the latter is taken seriously, the former will not be stronger and larger than the foam formed when reaching out to stir the water.

As existences that have reached the present through the elite individual line of confrontation, they are enough to take on the terrifying tasks that other civilizations can only undertake with fleets and endless environmental foundations.

With technical ideas including using fleets and other tools to achieve goals, by making one’s own power more powerful, controllable and omnipotent, by using one’s own power to achieve increasingly difficult goals, by inducing various possibilities and phenomena in the void, Let possibilities pave a route to success… No matter what the road is, they will ultimately push civilization and wisdom towards a common goal: to obtain their own truth and omnipotence, and to obtain what civilization and life can possess. , a better life.

…

“But this is just the surface… In other words, the countless existences of order and intelligent life in the void are more willing to accept it, and all existences, including the gods and the will of the void, are also willing to maintain the stability of such an environment. I am afraid that all of this can survive like this. Go down…” Recalling everything reflected in those endlessly deep eyes, some ripples appeared in the depths of Victorville’s thoughts.

That war, that war between the gods against the enemy formed from the cracks in the void, that destructive battle involving leaps and transcendences, that destructive battle between powers that were infinitely close to omniscience and omnipotence on both sides, has ended, and the battlefield has long since The silence fell.

“But the aftermath of that battle was sealed in the void area around the endless eternal space. The aftermath did not destroy the new civilization that was based on the old civilization. Instead, all the leaked parts and the complete entanglement with the existing order were entangled in The fragments of Σ together have finally been completely cleared, and all the clearing operations in the void have been completed before the core spiral ladder battle ended… This was too fast, and the cost seemed too small, so small that it was incredible.”

Compared to a small person, huge warships with long axes that exceed the astronomical units in the ancient statistics of the empire are no different from the earth. Even if these ships are seen from a distance, they still have arcs, but they can change with the huge difference in body size. Undetectable.

Surrounded by the boundless white ocean – the Void Sun still needs to be restored.

On the “other side” of the distant horizon, there is some light that is different from the blazing sun – that light may come from the ancient monument that spans time, or from the civilization that has a history of more than four trillion years. The various spatial structures and facilities built here by generations of people may also come from various beacons spanning ancient and modern times…

The sky is clear and clear.

Great for…thinking.

There is a vague doubt, a faint sense of dissonance of unknown origin.

“Void…Order…Infinite, finite, chaotic sea, transcendence, one-sidedness and errors, well…”

My thoughts are a little vague, a little confused, like a dream but not a dream.

Among them, several threads of thought seem to have their own wisdom and soul. They leap from the ocean of thoughts formed by countless sparks. They streak through the sky covered with fog and chaos. They outline some things in the cloud cover. Pictures, some vague connections…

The sense of violation, or the key point, begins to become clear – the sense of violation is no longer inconsistent, but becomes a calming suggestion – it can come from anywhere, in all worlds with different structures , all ordered environments, all time and space, all reality, all wisdom, all chaos… It comes from everything, it comes from… void.

There were too many unexplained powerful rules and warnings in the past, which made the empire clear early on about the “boundary rules” and “limits of order” such as the supremacy of the void, the insurmountability of the void, and the inability of the void to be thoroughly analyzed by the brute force of order.

The reason why there is a sense of dissonance seems to be because… there seems to be a difference between observation and reality.

The gods determined that it is more appropriate to analyze the void with the “membrane” model. This model broke the “existential attribute differences” between order, the order world and the chaotic sea a long time ago. They are essentially deformations of the void, and they Essentially the total is zero, and therefore Cataclysm can be seen as the “final return”.

However… the more detailed the calculations of this entire set of models are, the more it seems to be revealed that the void has a “property”, that is, all measurable and unmeasurable existences are combined to zero in total… This seems to have some problems.

Σ has given different forms of the highest warning many times, and all of those warnings can explain the supremeness, eternity, endlessness and depth of the void. The understanding of void cannot be comprehensive, and the analysis of void cannot be absolutely correct. Any understanding of void is one-sided and narrow… It is not ruled out that even if the civilization in the past was as powerful, some neglected ideas and they are beyond their reach. The “convenience” prevents them from further summarizing these contents, but they should not ignore the absolute power of Σ itself and how long they have to travel in the unknown.

A series of complex calculations unfolded deep in Vidoville’s consciousness.

“If we conduct actual deduction according to the membrane model…”

“The current model may lead to some abstract and weird wrong conclusions – it seems that once the void is involved, there will be a variety of plausible but never satisfying explanations, as well as more inferences…

And, if the void is determined to be zero…the model is like this…then where is the “meaning position” of the void? In… critical level? Where will it be? The total amount is zero, and the actual performance is comprehensively zero. If the non-zero parts are all erased…the abnormality of rapid collapse will disappear, and the structures that can cause abnormal collapse will all disappear…then what will be left? paradox? Or something else? “

Vidoville frowned – there is no doubt that the Void Era is not infinitely long, it has a starting point, at least it seems to be an existence that can be determined as the starting point. But to be honest, from that vague starting point to now… a long, long time has indeed passed, but this past time can be measured in units, and in absolute terms… it is not long.

Even if all generalizations and symbols are removed, and the recorded time span is expanded to the point where all the worlds in the void have truly experienced birth and death for more than ten trillion times, such a time span can actually only be said to be “relatively huge.” And not absolutely infinite – it is not even comparable to the many finite mortal giants that were established in advance but could not be used for a long time.

Relatively speaking, a limited civilization can only see a cramped and narrow part. As for the endless void, even the gods may have considerable limitations in their power. But even based on current observations…perhaps, some strange properties may appear…

Including the world, once order appears, it will inevitably cause the void to change, and then create a stress that wants it to return to zero?

According to the gods, the core components of the Long Bridge in the Void are finally built from countless world hearts through a series of mapping combinations – there is no doubt that the starting core is the product of order. But… on the surface it appears that it spans the Chaos Sea Realm, but in fact, what part does the Void Long Bridge span? “There is a place in the void where the opposite of all existence, even the self, and everyone’s understanding of it is constantly being destroyed? Or…is it beyond the void itself?”

“But…why can the means of order cross the void? Or, can it cross the field paved with all the “opposites of existence”?”

“If this field is the “opposite of all existence”, then if the startup end can forcibly penetrate the chaotic sea field by condensing a large amount of information, it will not be completely swallowed up before its “bridge” extends to a certain depth. , then it may be explained that the chaotic sea will have an overall weakening and limited effect on the erosion and zeroing of information flow with high concentration, high totality, high rank and high order… But if we say that the chaotic sea domain and order The world’s “communication” with each other will show rules, that is, you can enter the chaotic sea realm through the exit of the chaotic sea and there is the possibility of “returning to the original path”, and God’s rules also show that the chaotic sea realm may exist with the world of order, at least on its surface. The corresponding “mapping rules”…”

So, if there really are infinitely many worlds of order in the void, infinitely many worlds of order, infinitely many environments of order, and the opposite of all existence exists here…then a new problem will arise – if The “return to zero pollution” in the chaotic sea field really has a corresponding relationship with order. Then considering the existence of infinity… it is possible that no matter how “small” the chaotic sea field is, it may correspond to countless worlds and countless orders. On the other hand, the power of order may be able to concentrate many orders into one point, but if the chaotic sea realm really corresponds to the opposite of countless order worlds in all senses, then it should correspond to infinity with infinity – this means No matter how powerful the collection of order is, no matter how huge the total amount of information is, it will inevitably be swallowed up before it completely reaches the “bottom level” of the chaotic sea. And even with an infinite amount of information, it may take an infinite amount of information. It takes a long time to cross this true infinity.

In an orderly environment, in some cases, a finite large number or a series of concepts or conditions that are not absolute can be equated with true and complete infinity in terms of use and effect, but that is because they are in the “current environment” It is enough to match the observation results, but the part that has been removed… At least for now, their existence or not is no longer of indispensable value to the understanding of the ordered world.

The chaotic sea layer has made it clear that it has a limited “thickness” that cannot be measured in any way feasible in an orderly world. It can even be considered to be completely impossible to depict any meaningful essence and “reflection” of its own details. content”. However, it can at least be “crossed”. And in theory, the underlying environment with infinitely strong zeroing capabilities… is said to be “quiet” and “safe” there.

And… when the cataclysm breaks out, how do the sea of ​​chaos and order actually interact? Is it that the discontinuity zone will eventually destroy the suppression and restraint of all ordered worlds that block the sea of ​​chaos, causing the previously wandering “doors” to appear in every world as big as the world? Or is it that the discontinuous zone is essentially the final stress collapse that activates all the chaotic seas. After all activations are finally completed, the chaotic seas themselves will directly interact with order, or will they completely flow out and sweep away at an absolutely infinite transcendent speed? through an infinite realm?

Several types of models can well reflect the overall operational possibilities, the smoothing of the void membrane itself, the collapse and development of the “anti-existence” accumulated for a long time and the smoothing of all bulges… They are all classic. But can this be said to be absolutely “correct”?

No matter how you do it, it seems to be enough to prove that there are rules between these interactions – rules that are indestructible and inescapable. The existence of order must correspond to the chaotic sea, and the chaotic sea must exist in the chaotic sea domain, and the chaotic sea domain serves as the place where all stress is returned to zero. Centers, whose nature is intangible but which are structures whose boundaries can only be barely delineated by external destruction, are actual and interactive – the realm is just beyond the door.

What’s more important is that the chaotic sea realm can be safely crossed, and the limited time in the void, as well as some of the current practices, seem to indicate that this “opposite of all existence” may not be as imagined before the outbreak. …It’s hard to face.

So maybe this means that the void seems to be limited in some ways? Can part of the void conform to rationality, can it conform to the laws of observation, and can corresponding strategies be found? However… there seems to be considerable contradiction between these practical applications and the warnings repeated countless times.

If the void is truly supreme and endless, why would a big collapse occur due to local “imbalanced cross-strait pressure”? What range does this “pressure imbalance” correspond to? If the perceptible part caused such a situation, then why would the disaster caused by limited civilization and order affect the entire endless void? Or is it that this disaster does not actually spread infinitely, but that it spreads too far, so that the vision of order cannot detect its boundaries?

And if we say… Is it possible that there are more radical explanations for these – for example, all this is not the nature of the void, but in fact, some intervals in the void may be in a “stable island” where rules and order begin to appear spontaneously. “Nature of spontaneous formation nearby? Is it just that this island of stability is so big that it already contains everything that is already touchable and imaginable?

And the current observations, current attention, and everything currently available may be just one-sided? Would this all be different if there were more broader perspectives and more understanding?

Order is generated, pressure appears, chaos annihilates the pressure, and everything returns to zero…

So this is just the changes and rules within the order environment – order here is its own system, and this process occurs because of the collapse of order. Is this possible… without introducing void? In other words, using wisdom and current theories to touch the void… there is still too much to go, and it is too early? The void may be deeper, so deep that maybe I have forgotten it?

…

“Um……”

Seems a little half asleep.

Among them, perhaps the part that the model can describe is not accurate, because the part that the abstract model can replace is only the most direct observation result. It cannot confirm that everything is running as stably as the model itself, nor can it contain all the details. But even if there are deviations, this macroscopic framework should be enough to support macroscopic observation and thinking.

“Pressure”, the imbalance between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait can be neutralized through bridges…but what is the “pressure” itself? Why does it accumulate? Why does it “increase”? Is it really the “grabbing” from the void that caused too much order to be born out of thin air, making it impossible for the “void” to persist?

But this pressure is more like a burden from the outside rather than one’s own distortion – only pressure from the outside will accumulate because there is no place to vent it. If order causes these pressures, then the existence of order itself is a response to the void. Interference, then… would be neutralized during the bridge-building process. The bridge-building itself would directly destroy a large amount of civilization and intelligence, but this did not happen…

There are many questions——

Why can deep submersible ships cross the critical layer… An even more acute question is – why can deep submersible ships move in turbulent seas? If the deep-diving ship exists in the chaotic sea in a way that can be accepted by the world of order…Does this prove that there is also a chaotic but powerful order environment in the chaotic sea? Within the chaotic sea realm, the orderly environment still clearly exists, and they are connected to each other into a downwardly decreasing continuous whole…?

Reality seems a bit blurry.

Movement is relative.

Absolute movement requires absolute rules of reference.

If in the deepest part of the chaotic sea, what can the deep-sea vessel still detect and what can it cross… The most stable reference system that can be thought of is everything in an orderly environment… And for an orderly environment, it can If reference and relativity can still be established even at the bottom of the chaotic sea, it may mean that there is still a part of the rules of order, perhaps infinitely weak, but still deep in the chaotic sea, at the bottom of the opposite side of all existence, the attributes of existence Still holds true…

Is all this absolute?

While half asleep and half awake, Victorville’s thoughts spread further, and the threads of thought rose and fell one after another. Countless of them were like twinkling stars, bringing countless ideas and at the same time Bringing similar-sized conclusions and deeper confusion.

For a long time, the reality has always seemed to be like this – there seems to be a general idea and a general line. The contradictions seem to be just that, they are clearly laid out in front of us waiting to be resolved. But when you look closely, everything that seems clear and solid will always scatter and form a mist that merges and spreads with each other.

These are some of the most intuitive first expressions that I remember, see, and touch.

What about the deeper parts below these manifestations?

…

The Will of the Void will also be banished and disintegrated.

The Will of the Void represents the void.

The creations of the will of the void are already outside the measurable limits of information unity.

The Will of the Void awakens. The Will of the Void has a limited number, and they will cheer for the increase of their compatriots.

Void is the ultimate manifestation of the will of void…

The Cataclysm will not “kill” the Will of the Void…

The remains of the bridge come from a previous era. The ancient gate was not destroyed, but the message remained. The world does not seem to be absolute.

The void contains all the paradoxes.

The void has no final limit…

How to fill the gap…

The sea, and the sky…

The finiteness of all living beings, the performance of all living beings, the infinity of all living beings; the finite and infinite above the extraordinary and the extraordinary, and…

Uh-huh……

…

“What are you doing?”

“Ah…hey?” The sudden voice made Victorville wake up. He saw the figure that had been accompanying him for a long time, or rather shining on him, and behind the figure, the clear sky full of stars.

“Lil, how are you now?” As he spoke, Vidoville gave her an arm that he was resting on, “It’s nothing, just some casual guesses about the previous war.”

“There is no problem, and then… forget it, don’t think so much. Look, for so long, we have been living and existing more with empirical conclusions that are consistent with the observations… We have always lived It’s going well. Everything is going well now, let’s rest more.” Vesrifan rested her head on Vidoville’s arm, and she smiled at him, “What do you think?”

“Yes, we are constantly solving problems one after another, but if the truth is unknowable, then what will the future be like…”

“We have successfully built a bridge. And in the future… at least, it has moved from closed to open.”

“Well…that’s right. At least from what we can see now, hope, order, stability and development are the mainstream…”

“You can relax for a while now.”

…

The future is promising.
