With the support of a ninth-level civilization, do you want me to believe in electronic gods?

Chapter 133 The plan cannot keep up with the changes

Kukan Underground City, Outer City.

The emergency communication initiated by Chief Moore has ended.

Chen Fan looked at the holographic projection slowly dissipating in front of him and couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Beside him, the word dignified was written all over Isa's pretty face, and the delicate mechanical left eye was flashing with a scarlet light that flickered on and off.

Only Gao Yuan was looking at Chen Fan and Yisha with a blank expression.

Finally, Gao Yuan couldn't help the depressing atmosphere in the shanty house, leaned down slightly and asked Isa next to him: "Isa, did you understand their conversation?"

Isha didn't hesitate and said matter-of-factly: "Of course not."

lofty:"……?"

Isa nodded her head: "I think it must be something big that makes Mr. Chen Fan so worried."

Gao Yuan took a deep breath and suddenly realized: "What you said... makes sense."

Seeing Gao Yuan also have a serious face, Chen Fan finally couldn't stand it anymore: "You two, if you really have nothing to do, go and answer the questions nearby."

"Have you finished reading Fifty Thousand Years of the People's Federation? Have you memorized the Code of Civilized Investigation?"

"I just know how to make jokes here!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand and brought up two holographic images full of text in front of the two of them - this is actually a mandatory requirement of the Bureau. As an assistant to the investigator, he naturally has to master all kinds of basic information about the People's Federation. and expertise.

There are even regular assessments.

Seeing Gao Yuan and Isha's spirits suddenly collapse, a smile suddenly appeared on Chen Fan's lips.

As a senior who has experienced the same suffering, Chen Fan only has one idea about this:
When the stable wormhole is opened, he must apply for two sets of smart terminals for learning for these two people!

……

What Isa said was indeed correct. After this communication, he was indeed filled with countless confusions.

An unknown civilization that is suspected to have reached level nine, a strange cross-universe broadcast that contains some unknown information but can be heard by carbon-based life forms...

Chen Fan's eyes moved slightly, and he immediately thought of the omnic that was behaving abnormally and was trying to evolve itself.

According to Moore's previous statement, there may be a powerful being behind the omnic that guides its self-evolution.

Could there be some connection between the two?
How can a ninth-level civilization focus on a low-level civilization that has not yet left its home planet?

Countless mysteries and confusions arise in Chen Fan's mind.

As Moore said, the breaking point of all mysteries lies in the string of unknown characters!

As long as there are a sufficient number of samples, the People's League may be able to decipher this strange writing and solve a series of mysteries!

but……

There were no rules to the resonance. Who knew when he would hear the obscure whisper again? Moreover, after learning about the dangers of the five-dimensional space, Chen Fan inevitably felt a little fear in his heart.

If you put aside the avenue of empathy, where else can you get these strange characters?
Chen Fan subconsciously thought of those suffering from "madness".

They also resonate and hear that obscure whisper.

It's just that compared to Chen Fan, they heard less information and the side effects were more serious.

But the relatively large base and long time can certainly make up for this shortcoming - after such a long time, there are always a few talented people who can hear some brand-new "words", right?

Just collect all these "words"...

An electronic synthesized voice sounded, pouring cold water on Chen Fan: "This unit doesn't think this is a good method."

Chen Fan looked at the smart terminal on his right hand with some confusion: "Why?"

"Information preservation ability." Yi quickly explained, "For a civilization, the ability to preserve large-scale information is a very important hidden indicator."

"This will fundamentally affect the inheritance and development of civilization."

"For example, if you wanted to preserve a few simple words for as long as possible, what would you do?"

Chen Fan thought for a moment and answered: "Of course it is carved on stone."

Solid state drives or USB flash drives can only be stored for a few years, tapes can only be stored for more than ten years, and even mechanical disks can only be stored for 20 to 30 years.

Moving forward, optical discs may be a relatively safe means of preservation. Some optical discs made of special materials can retain information for hundreds or even thousands of years.

An inconspicuous piece of paper, if properly stored, can preserve information for tens of thousands of years.

As for the stone...it can even record information from hundreds of millions or even billions of years ago!

In Chen Fan's concept, this is already a long enough time.

"What if it's a book?"

Before Chen Fan could answer, Isha, who was answering questions at the side, raised her hand cheerfully and said the answer: "I know this. Find a bigger stone."

Chen Fan: "..."

one:"……"

Looking at one person and one machine who fell silent at the same time, Isa's big eyes showed a bit of guilt, and she weakly put down the raised robot hand: "What I said...isn't it right?"

Chen Fan grinned: "Apart from the facts, it actually makes sense."

"It's my fault." Yi's voice was full of helplessness, "I want to put it another way, what if it's all the books in the library?"

Chen Fan thought about it seriously, and then...

"Find a bigger stone, convert the text information into binary data, compress it multiple times, and then carve it on it."

"...You have a fucking problem with rocks, right? What if it's all the information of an entire civilization?"

"Is this...a bigger stone?"

Facing Yi's continuous questioning, Chen Fan finally fell silent. Having said this, he actually understood what Yi meant.

"Once a civilization loses the means of long-term preservation of large-scale information, its decline will become an inevitable result."

"Unfortunately, based on the current situation, Varela civilization has fallen into a vicious death spiral of civilizational decline."

"In this case, this unit believes that they have no power to save this trivial and seemingly unimportant information."

Chen Fan was silent.

One is right.

According to the understanding of madness in the underground city, coupled with this special era when human life is less than a piece of grass, it is estimated that the strange words written by these people before they died will not attract people's attention at all!

Correspondingly, there is naturally no record and preservation.

"That……"

Chen Fan's face was full of helplessness: "So, this investigation task can only depend on the fate?"

When does resonance occur, and when does the appropriate investigation begin?

Isn't this too fucking fucked up?

"I thought maybe you could consider the prosperous times."

"If there is a certain connection between cross-universe broadcasting and artificial intelligence, then there will definitely be corresponding resonance events in the prosperous era."

A word to awaken the dreamer.

Yi's words directly awakened Chen Fan who was stuck in the quagmire of thinking!
Instead of believing in these primitive people living in high-tech cities, it is better to pin your hopes on the era of prosperity that has died!
The holographic projection automatically unfolded in front of Chen Fan's eyes.

Among them is the concrete dome building photographed by a drone.

Looking at the dome building in front of him, Chen Fan took a deep breath.

It seems that the plan has to be changed again.

The aftermath work of the resistance forces and the disaster-stricken civilization will be delayed a little bit, and the mastermind behind the scenes is the first priority task.

Going full circle, the problem returns to its original starting point - transportation.

Chen Fan still remembers what he suffered in the forest.

He shuddered suddenly when he thought that his destination was 150 kilometers away.

Relying on Route 11 is definitely not feasible, and the starship that was promised is still nowhere to be seen...

Chen Fan's eyes moved slightly and he focused on Hong Chengdong and the resistance soldiers.

……

More than ten minutes later.

Chen Fan looked at Hong Chengdong and the two resistance fighters in front of him with a painful look on his face.

There are indeed cars in the dungeon, and there are quite a few of them.

But none of them can adapt to the complex environment on the earth's surface - it's normal. When these cars were first created, no one thought that the top of their heads would turn into a primeval forest full of mutated plants!

Fortunately, Hong Chengdong gave an alternative:

Go from the dungeon.

There are railway tracks connecting each underground city. These trains, which have worked diligently for hundreds of years, are relatively reliable. Although they cannot deliver Chen Fan to his destination accurately, they can at least save a lot of distance.

Choosing this route can save Chen Fan at least 100 kilometers.

Chen Fan will naturally have to handle the other 50 kilometers by himself.

In addition, the situation in other dungeons is relatively complicated.

From what Hong Chengdong said, they might pass by a dungeon that was closely related to the Mechanical Cult.

The two rebel fighters also gave their advice: go through the rebel tunnels.

Except for the newly opened tunnels, the rest of the tunnels are actually equipped with simple track systems - similar to the old-fashioned mine carts that enter the underground city.

The rebel army's tunnels extend in all directions. Not to mention accurately delivering them to their destinations, they can at least deliver Chen Fan and others near their destinations.

The only drawback is that there is no route map or any traffic information.

To be precise, the two rebels in front of them didn't know the situation in other tunnels, so they might encounter various inexplicable situations if they choose this road.

Including but not limited to tunnel collapse, track failure, taking the wrong turn...

Not to mention Chen Fan, even Isha and Gao Yuan fell silent after hearing these possible situations.

Chen Fan grinned and protested silently in his heart:

'One, help me urge Song Ziliang again! '

'Without any reliable support, labor and management will go on strike! '

"Oh!"

Without waiting for a reply, a loud noise came from the platform where the mine cart was parked in the distance.

Chen Fan was startled and cast an inquiring look at Hong Chengdong.

"Maybe some bastard made a mistake while operating the mine cart."

Hong Chengdong waved his hand nonchalantly: "It's not a big problem. Those mine cars are quite safe. No one will be killed under normal circumstances."

Chen Fan: "?"

Do you have any misunderstanding about the word safety?
