Chapter 1580 The Despicable Group Technological Civilization
This space does not allow more than three macroscopic dimensions to exist.

Thus, the moment the Dream Lyra transformed into a macroscopic existence, it was just like that four-dimensional life form, firmly pressed down in place by the entire space.

When the microscopic form is eroded by the absolute macroscopic three-dimensional rules, it is as if a force is forcing all the microscopic to become macroscopic. The same is true in the macroscopic state. Structures with more than three dimensions will also be suppressed by the rules, which will force them to be pressed into the three dimensions.

Faced with this situation, the Lyra Dream could only adjust its defense center, allocating more computing power to maintain its shape and characteristics, striving to fight against external rules and maintain its Calabria manifold structure.

But at that moment, a message suddenly emanated from the flattened, seemingly lifeless four-dimensional life form, propagating through the cosmic membrane.

"Hahaha, I never expected that after so much meaningless time, there would still be someone suppressed in this cell. It seems that my remaining life will not be so lonely. I didn't expect to have someone to accompany me before I die. Not bad, not bad."

After sending out a message, there was no response from the "strange life form". The four-dimensional life form then sent out another message that seemed to be talking to itself.

"Is this... that he didn't hear it or that he doesn't understand it? That shouldn't be the case. This is the common language of a single civilization. How could he not understand it? Could it be that this guy was stunned by the attack? Did his signal receiving organs get destroyed? Did he become deaf?"

A moment later, the four-dimensional life form called out to the Dream Lyre again: "Hey, you little guy, you're quite capable, managing to be thrown into this room by those despicable bastards. Oh, no wonder, you're also a space-type life form. It's a shame you were brought here, but you can never go back. Oh well, accept your fate. This place is specifically designed to suppress space-type life forms like us."

"Hmm, the six-dimensional Kalapa manifold structure, young man, you're quite impressive, to have evolved to this level. But are they really that powerful? Even someone as advanced as you was captured. Tsk, could it be that you were used as an experiment by that hateful group of technological civilizations and turned into a fool? Why aren't you saying anything? Hey, hey, hey, say something!"

"Can't you really understand? Is it a post-era single-species civilization? This is too difficult. Have single-species civilizations fallen to the point of losing even common communication channels? What era's single-species civilization are you from? By the way, what time period is the universe currently in?"

"Oh dear, look at my brain! You can't understand me! You can't understand anything I'm saying. What should I do? Can anyone tell me how to communicate with someone who doesn't understand the common language of a single civilization?"

As he spoke, asking questions repeatedly without receiving a response, the four-dimensional being's words gradually turned into self-talk, and finally his "voice" faded away.

When communication ceased, the space returned to its former lifelessness.

But there are some differences. In the past, it was a four-dimensional life form that was suppressed by this space alone. Now there is another existence, namely the Dream Lyra, which he mistakenly thought was a life form evolving in a one-dimensional direction.

In fact, humans have already received information from four-dimensional life forms. Humans can clearly sense the information transmitted from the cosmic membrane and know that it must have come from four-dimensional life forms, but they do not know what the content is.

Of course, as a technological civilization, even if we don't know the content of the message sent by the other party, we still have a way to preserve those messages from four-dimensional life forms, and humans do the same.

Save it, and once both parties have finished exchanging information, you can go back and see what the other party was saying!
So the humans currently aboard the Lyra are discussing whether or not to respond immediately and send over the dictionary they used to communicate with the unknown civilization.

If we were to encounter an unknown civilization in the vast universe, humanity would certainly do the same without hesitation.

But there's clearly something fishy about this.

Prior to this, many scholars of human civilization had concluded that this pixelated space was a cage, possibly a cage imprisoning a special life form. Subsequent explorations seemed to confirm this, especially after encountering this four-dimensional life form, which further solidified this conclusion.

So when the Lyra appeared, this four-dimensional life form rattled off a whole bunch of things. Even though the content of the information couldn't be deciphered immediately, human civilization could guess that it was definitely something that had been said under the influence of some preconceived notion.

That would be interesting.

Since they still speak with preconceived notions after seeing "themselves," what do four-dimensional life forms actually see "themselves" as?

After years of exploring the stars, humanity is no longer the naive newcomer it once was.

They know how to be cautious and how to exploit information asymmetry to obtain unequal information, and now it seems there is such an opportunity.

Once this was understood, humanity abandoned the idea of ​​responding immediately.

A response is definitely necessary, but it's crucial to understand how to respond. To understand how to respond, we need to correctly guess what the four-dimensional life form's first impression of "it" is.

This is not a baseless guess.

First, the experts and scholars on the Tianqin established a basic premise: based on the known information, they hypothesized that this four-dimensional life form was an entity imprisoned here. Combining this with the other individual life forms they had encountered that had already died, the experts could easily conclude that they might have been imprisoned here by some entity in ancient times.

So what is it?

Given the scarcity of individual civilizations encountered in the vast universe, human experts can easily rule out that the being is a single civilization. Therefore, it is easy to conclude that the being is likely a group of technological civilizations, or some other form of existence.

Based on this reasoning, this four-dimensional life form either sees itself as a group of technological civilizations and is cursing them, or it sees itself as one of its own kind and is making preconceived statements.

Given the choice between the two options, and considering the shape of the Lyra, human experts and scholars unanimously believe that the other party is treating the Lyra as a single life form.

Once this is clear, you must be careful when sending public dictionary exchanges; you must never send words related to the living conditions of human civilization groups or the culture of group life.

In order to avoid being discovered by the other party that they have made a mistake and missing out on a lot of information that could have been obtained from the four-dimensional life form.

In that case, let's use the language of Gaia's life.
Humanity immediately decided to use the language of the Gaia life form in the Milky Way that had been destroyed by the electronic warship.

It has to be said that this wave of human technological civilization is quite despicable, actually trying to deceive an elderly and weak individual who has been trapped for many years.
