But... the remaining less than 3% of function is no longer enough to support another exploration and repatriation operation.
In this case, one passive way is to send communications and wait for a response from a possible existence with a similar level of civilization. Another way is to continue the jump and open a new star gate at the cost of irreversible self-destruction.
Signal exchange... no, the operation between programs suddenly became intense. Even if it was only 3%, it was an extremely large amount of intelligence. In order to perform their respective functions, they performed intensive calculations on assumptions in various directions.
The final conclusion was to try a related jump to the universe where the original dispatched fleet was located. If possible, get a response and cooperation from the long-distance ships, and perhaps retain as many mothership functions as possible instead of completely destroying itself.
Then, the next moment, all components and all functions started working at full speed. They were about to attack the brightly burning star in the middle to accelerate the collapse of the star and create a black hole, thus completing the cross-galaxy link.
This is what is called self-destruction.
----------
'Perhaps in the eyes of some supreme being, our universe is dull and ordinary. The distance between planets is just a gap between loose sand, and the distance between stars is not as big as the distance between grains.'
When the dimensional boundary submarine passed through the wormhole, Miyu had already followed the ship system's instructions and sat - no, was pressed tightly in her seat. As she continued to pass through the wormhole, she saw a fantastic scene that was completely different from the mythical world. Knowing what a wormhole is, Miyu couldn't help but think of this sentence she had seen in a book.
Falling, and continuing to fall.
What Miyu saw before her eyes were Qin Xuan, Illya, Chloe and several of his companions, as well as the complex facilities and outer walls of the ships around them.
But at the moment of crossing, those things, those thoughtless existences, became transparent, and then all the facilities began to twist and deform, as if they were constantly stretching and stretching, while in some other places, they were desperately curling up and curling up.
From a bad perspective, this is indeed an exciting but dangerous journey.
Because wormholes are often associated with black holes, black holes have various structures, such as a strange ring around a rotating black hole that can squeeze anything into a long strip. But maybe it's not a black hole, it's just a naked singularity. Astronomy books record that near a singularity, the cause and effect relationship of things will be broken, the result will precede the cause, and time can flow backwards...
Miyu recalled the knowledge she had read in the Emiya residence before. What would they encounter? Could they intersect with their future selves? Or would they truly change the past as Qin Xuan said?
Chapter 301 Quantum Effects: Interference at a Distance
One thing worth celebrating is that they did not encounter any strange things, did not fall into the imaginary event horizon, and were not squeezed into noodles.
Everything was normal, except that Illya and Chloe's expressions might have seemed a little too excited.
Miyu felt that she was just imagining things. She had never seriously studied the physics of black holes, and she didn't know what kind of machine or technology the Greek gods used to create wormholes just right.
Theoretically, so-called black holes are either born at the origin of the universe or formed by the collapse of stars much more massive than the sun. Their gravitational pull is so strong that even light cannot escape, and only quantum effects can keep it running normally. But the gods did not target stars or primordial black holes. Oh, no one knows where the primordial black hole is, right?
Perhaps it is at the very center of the Milky Way? Is it similar to the "root" of the origin of the universe that the mysterious side believes in? The reason why magicians never come back after touching the root vortex is that they fell into a supermassive primordial black hole?
Finally, Miyu was interrupted by the noisy voices of her companions. She came back to reality and found that Illya and the others were surrounding Qin Xuan and communicating with him, while Qin Xuan was testing something through the computer on the ship.
"Big Brother, have we fallen into a black hole?"
"No, Illya," Qin Xuan took the time to answer, "I've said this before. Let alone directly encountering a black hole, once you enter the event horizon, there is no way to escape the black hole singularity. You will be torn apart by the singularity and become a unit smaller than an ant or a bug."
Then, there was a burst of laughter from Chloe next to her.
"Brother Qin Xuan, have you found anything?" Miyu couldn't help but ask.
"To be precise, we found something unusual - because there is nothing outside, nothing was found." Qin Xuan said as he used the light curtain to open the feedback from their exploration of the surroundings. "As you can see, there is no signal feedback, and everything is gone without a trace. It's like a large black box space."
At this time, the submarine no longer felt the "roller coaster" feeling when passing through the wormhole, but began to gradually enter the deceleration stage. It can be roughly described as up and down, left and right, constantly up and down, turning. It was like being tossed around by something, but the source of this suspected gravity could not be found.
The outer walls of the ship were miraculously intact, which meant that Qin Xuan's final plan - to use his own world tree and life source to create a spare outer shell to form a biological sailing ship - was not used for the time being.
Submersible ships were designed from the beginning to support multi-functional navigation. After all, in the initial operation of the earth vein channel, it is necessary to face various extreme situations such as earth vein siltation, earth vein turbulence, and earth vein stagnation and exhaustion. In the process of developing the submersible navigation technology at the dimension boundary, it is even more necessary to solve the strange areas of the non-real world and the imaginary world faced in the dimensional gap area.
In the process of space travel, the most critical issue is not the navigation problem caused by the space environment, but supply, energy, the unknown, and various unexpected developments.
For example, the abnormal gravity that interfered with the ship suddenly disappeared, and then a large number of signal sources suddenly appeared around and in all directions.
"..." Qin Xuan was weighing it in his heart. He didn't know where the sources of these signals came from, but he was sure that there was something wrong with them.
However, before he could make a decision, the other party took the initiative to access the communication - no, did it intervene in the ship's system? !
[Hello, visitor from the Oringin universe, no need to show hostility]
[This machine is codenamed 'Chaos', a wandering mothership system from the original mother planet civilization]
[Visitor, you have just entered the black hole gravitational capture range guided by the machine's self-destruction program]
[After the active gravitational interference of this machine, you have now deviated from the course of the event horizon]
"Chaos..."
This name flashed through Qin Xuan's mind, and he instantly recalled the story about the origin of the Greek gods. They had undoubtedly entered the outer universe, and Chaos seemed to be creating a black hole? Regardless of whether its self-destruction was true or false, it was true that it had the ability to interfere with the hull they were on, that is, it could save them, or push them back to the direction of the black hole again.
"What do you want to express?" Qin Xuan remembered that at the beginning, the Mecha God had only functions but no emotions. Then Chaos' existence should be the ultimate representation of this, with unparalleled rationality and mechanical nature.
Therefore, there is no need to be polite to this kind of existence, it will only act in a direction that is beneficial to itself (its goals). If you want to save them, then there is a place where they can be used.
[Through the data body of the 'box', this machine knows where you are coming from, so we need you, the partners, to cooperate as the signal end...]
[…to obtain the location and information of the dispatched fleet…if possible, we will also rebuild a ‘new home’ there.]
----------
That was a story from long, long ago.
Of course, considering the time when the ancient Greek gods created the Pandora doll and the box device, it should be said that this is a story that happened not long ago.
After the gods finished the work in the Great Temple, they placed Pandora's Box and Pandora outside Mount Olympus, without giving her any guidance after she woke up.
Therefore, Pandora woke up alone.
However, she is not an ignorant child.
"Yeah, that's it," Pandora said, wearing a loose and pure white Greek-style "Ghetto" costume. The uncut rectangular fabric looked like a large holy garment. "I am a special human created by the gods. I am different from the ordinary people out there!"
Well! I am just a special item created by God to open the "box".
Pandora seemed proud but actually lost. She was aware of her own special existence, so she had no friends. No matter how long it was, she was always alone and talked to the flowers, plants and trees. It was as if there was an imaginary person who was always by her side. Then, it was spring, summer, autumn and winter, and the four seasons rotated year after year.
Later, Pandora finally realized that she would not be expected or responded to by the gods, and she emphasized, "I am different, I am not a mortal, so there is no need to be with anyone! No need!... But, but God, why do you... abandon me like this..."
pat.
The stone at my feet moved.
"Huh?" Pandora thought she had misheard, but she found that the stone was rolling and leaving words of varying depths in the mud at her feet.
【I am by your side】
The words that only gods have appeared.
Chapter 302: Time and Space Ring
Qin Xuan finally understood why Chaos was so anxious.
If we infer from the information that 'the Greek Mecha God is only a small part of Chaos', given Chaos' size, there is no need to seek cooperation with Qin Xuan, just let them be torn apart by the gravity of the huge black hole. But Chaos revealed its current situation of being on the verge of shutdown -
The reason was to accelerate the collapse of stars into black holes. If it was just this, it would be nothing, but coupled with the semi-finished stargate jump constructed by this behavior, it also required communication positioning of the target universe, so Chaos had to wait for a long time with the remaining tiny function. This long period of device maintenance meant more loss, which meant that Chaos's movable function was once again reduced to less than 1%, an unprecedented level.
Until a turning point appeared - Zeus launched the final judgment and sent the copy data of "Pandora's Box" out of this universe through the artifact Kronos Crown. This action was originally a meaningless failure, but now it has become Chaos' only chance to locate the universe. The brief connection between the two has already formed a wormhole in some form.
Then came the time travel of Qin Xuan and others.
Chaos's decision to pay attention to them and place his hopes on them was not without reason. The wormhole connection was only a probabilistic event, and it seemed to it to be a miracle that only happened once. If Chaos's remaining movable components were to be transported to that special universe, it would require another similar hyperspace connection... Under the current conditions, it would probably be difficult to achieve here.
"I see. What you mean is that we need to use Pandora's Box on Earth to initiate your so-called star gate jump again so that the wormhole can be opened again?"
[According to your understanding, yes, this machine has established long-distance communication with the star called 'Earth' through the data body of the 'box'. ]
[Super long-distance communication can complete the command operation of the main body 'box' without delay through information transmission, but it cannot transmit physical matter. 】
[With limited capabilities, this machine has only one chance to make a stargate jump. This machine needs your assistance to complete the task of establishing a stargate jump and reviving the mother planet.]
Through the ship's crude voice system, Chaos spoke in a monotonous mechanical voice, and the meaning revealed was self-evident - Chaos was still meticulously executing the highest order of "resurrection of the mother planet", or in other words, it saw the possibility of completing the task by cooperating with Qin Xuan and others, so it took the time to communicate.
If Qin Xuan was not from that universe, but some inexplicable existence from another universe, Chaos would probably not bother to pay attention to him for even a second.
"I understand." Qin Xuan understood all this, but he had a doubt that he needed to confirm. Only after this doubt was resolved could he truly cooperate with confidence. "I need to ask, what is the function of Pandora's Box? It is the main body on Earth."
[Official name, Krilonomia Particle Re-Correction Device, the function of the complete form is a technology used for the ultimate goal of "resurrection of the mother planet", the method is to carry out a multi-dimensional complete transformation of the planet that meets the conditions. In the language of your "Earth" law, it is the transformation of spirit, spirit particle, and material celestial body.]
"—!"
The type of function Chaos described almost coincided with one of Qin Xuan's conjectures! Before the time travel, he had originally conjectured that the "operation that Ainsworth realized through Pandora in history" on Earth had three levels of functions: spirit, lepton, and matter, but it was not clear at the material level because Pandora's Box only formed a black hole that absorbed matter at the last moment.
But precisely because of this, it has more similarities with Chaos's statement.
Chaos, far away in the universe, manipulated Pandora's Box on Earth through remote action and realized applications at the spiritual and lepton levels by sending instructions. However, material applications could not be enabled because their functions had to be exerted in the only remaining star gate jump.
And Chaos now places his hopes on them for this only remaining opportunity.
In this way, everything makes sense. Illya and the others haven't reacted yet, but Qin Xuan knows. In history, Ainsworth used the existence in the box to bypass Gaia's sight and perform various operations. The so-called existence in the box is probably...
Traveling back to their past selves.
Does this seem to change history? No.
From Gaia's perspective, the existence in the box is unknown until the end of time. Therefore, they are not changing history, they are completing history.
Although Chaos did not say a lot of things, some things are self-evident. For example, as the mothership of the Greek gods, it can fully control the authority of the box. The "language of the gods" used by the Greek gods is actually derived from Chaos' code system. Theoretically, once the action at a distance is established, there should be no restrictions on its use of Pandora's Box on Earth.
But that's theory.
"Although you didn't explain it, Chaos, I still need to confirm one thing. You use the copy data of the 'box' you already have to operate the main body, but this operation is limited, right? I guess it's because the Pandora's Box on Earth is not enough to fully respond to your instructions. The activation of various functions requires some conditions, and it may even take a long time to accumulate. Am I right?"
[…This machine partially agrees. Due to the differences in the laws of the stars, and the fact that there is no real machine to perform the transformation as a backup, before rebuilding the mother star, the Krilonomia Particle Re-Correction Device needs to be localized and adjusted for the information at all levels of the Earth. On this basis, the functions will be gradually opened… The execution time cannot be confirmed, it depends on your efficiency. ]
"Oh, does this mean that we have agreed to cooperate?" Qin Xuan asked back, but he was thinking about actually agreeing to it.
As for the so-called localization adjustment, that is, the spirit, spirit particle, and material celestial body transformation process, he had an idea long ago, which was his complete cave heaven construction plan. The complete cave heaven is divided into three realms, heaven, earth, and man, corresponding to spirit (the throne of the gods in the sky), spirit particle (the place of the soul in the underworld), and matter (the earthly world). This is the real self-contained complete cave heaven, not a small portable space.
"Chaos, regarding the transformation plan of the local planet, I have a ready-made idea..."
What they need next is to confirm the specific implementation direction.
Chapter 303 The Demon-Yi Trio is about to become legal (sad)
After several rounds of discussions, Chaos formally agreed to Qin Xuan's plan, but at the same time, in order to ensure that Qin Xuan would not change his mind or position midway through the plan, all execution processes were recorded into the system plan, and both parties' operations on Pandora's Box, jumps, planetary transformation, etc. would be limited to this range.
However, when it comes to the specific implementation of the plan, Qin Xuan pointed out a question:
"Regarding this, 'After the planet reconstruction is completed, all operating rights will belong to Earth Life Qin Xuan.' Chaos, you actually took the initiative to add this?"
When Qin Xuan proposed this series of plans, the direction of localization had actually already leaned towards Qin Xuan's cave heaven. Chaos and Qin Xuan were in the relationship of developer and operator, and if Chaos gave up the operating and management rights, then the planet would eventually belong to Qin Xuan.
[This machine is sure that adding this will make the plan go more smoothly. ]
Chaos's thoughts, at present, have nothing else to do except the direction of thinking brought by the highest instructions.
[In addition, although some components can be carried to Earth after the plan is successful, the mother planet's resurrection process will still consume functions... In the end, there are only a few parts left, and continuing to operate the entire celestial body has become a luxury. ]
[In order to ensure that the ultimate achievement of the mother planet's resurrection will not be destroyed in the future, it is necessary to add a successor operator as 'insurance'. This machine judges that the cooperator is the best choice. According to the current judgment of the thinking mode of organic life, 'private property is inviolable' and 'things belong to me, and I use them', it is confirmed that organic life attaches great importance to self-property rights (property rights that the right holder has full control over his own property)...]
"——So you think the approach of 'leave it to me' is the most reassuring? In other words, you always choose the one with the highest probability of success."
【It is efficient. 】
Chaos corrected.
Qin Xuan seemed to hear Chaos's inefficient negotiation method with the intelligent creatures on Earth, which implied "discomfort" and "impatience".
Maybe it's just an illusion, but for a being like Chaos who can communicate directly through signals/consciousness, language is really a very low-level way of information exchange.
----------
After finishing the communication, Qin Xuan returned to the outside of the central room and found Illya and the other two waiting. Although he did not avoid them when he was negotiating the details of the plan with Chaos, he conducted several rounds of Q&A with Chaos alone in the room. Chaos's existence and way of thinking were too advanced, so the little guys didn't need to spend time to understand them. They just had to execute the Earth version update.
"Brother, have you talked to that... uh, artificial intelligence?" Illya asked worriedly. She still didn't quite understand why the superior existence of the Mecha God was a guy without a physical body, but Illya clearly remembered that he invaded the ship's system right at the beginning.
"We have negotiated. Next, the other party needs to execute the plan. This requires our cooperation. It affects whether we can go home."
Qin Xuan then looked at Miyu and Chloe behind him, and signaled everyone to follow. "It's just like what you heard before. The so-called Chaos needs more preparation to release the function of Pandora's Box on Earth. Oh, that's the one in Ainsworth's hand later. In the early stage, since the function is not fully released, we need to communicate with Pandora on Earth to solve it. Later, we can release it to the operation of the spirit/soul."
"Eh?" Chloe tilted her head. "But it sounds like we are the ones who are doing it. I feel like Chaos asked us to do the OEM work?"
"Not really. Chaos has also opened up the corresponding technology to us. For example, the food, water, and environmental maintenance in our submarine are all new devices provided by Chaos. The electronic system has also been upgraded. - The reward we get is beyond imagination, so we should be content. Chaos does not have any remaining functions to perform other operations."
Whether it is the stargate jump or the final planetary transformation, Chaos must maintain as many functions as possible, otherwise the loss in other aspects will undoubtedly greatly increase the risk of failure of the plan, and Qin Xuan also agrees with this.
"... Food and the like, don't we have enough reserves?" Miyu discovered a key point, "Does that mean we need long-term collaboration to implement that plan?"
"Of course," Qin Xuan led the three to the captain's room and turned on the 'Pandora's Box' data display device prepared by Chaos, showing the figure of Pandora outside the box.
