Wandering Spaceship in Deep Space Chapter 818: Noah and the engineer

"Hello, the new governor of the galaxy." Out of courtesy, Zhang Yuan replied politely.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. As mankind took that step courageously, the two sides seemed to be at the same order of magnitude and able to talk on an equal footing.

Zhang Yuan now knows that there are not many civilizations of this type that are willing to manage the galaxy. Most fifth-level civilizations, or more advanced civilizations, have their own ideals, their own plans, and are not willing to spend time A lot of it was spent on the endless civilization of sinkers...

"We are here to invite you to join us."

The Alev civilization introduced a very huge plan: They actually wanted to make the entire galaxy, every planet with intelligent life, into a standard intelligent unit.

"...Then these standard units are connected in series through a superluminal network system to form a Gaia creature at the level of the galaxy!"

"Yes, Gaia creatures, have you ever heard of it, that is, a kind of group wisdom. The wisdom level of this kind of group life will increase with the growth of the number of species."

"Each different intelligent creature will provide Gaia with its own intelligence, and then become a whole."

But the Gaia creatures at the galactic level are not the end point. The ultimate goal of the Noah faction is to connect the entire universe to create a cosmic group of creatures-Noah!

"How intelligent this creature will be! At present, Noah's intelligence level is already a ninth level civilization! Her potential is still growing."

"If your civilization is willing to participate in this great cause, we are indebted. Our single civilization is too weak. Even a small galaxy will cost us tens of thousands of years. Time..."

Faced with such a behemoth, Zhang Yuan suppressed the shock in his heart and asked: "However, once this is done, if all the low-level civilizations are assimilated, wouldn't it be difficult to give birth to a new fifth-level civilization?" /

"Yes, it is true. But you have to know that the vast majority of civilizations in the universe are sinkers. They no longer have room for progress. They have no ideals of their own and do not explore the meaning of life. Wouldn’t it make more sense to assimilate them and become a part of Noah? And we don’t mind excluding them from the plan when we encounter a very promising fourth-level civilization... Noah as a ninth-level civilization , One more intelligent unit is not much, and one less is not a lot."

Zhang Yuan asked again: "Occupying a lot of territory, other civilizations have been compressed into living space, won't you just sit back and watch?"

The Alev civilization is very domineering and said: "According to the currently known news, high-level civilizations that contradict the concept are not as powerful as ours. As for other ninth-level civilizations...or even greater civilizations, they have their own To understand our approach."

"Is there a stronger civilization?"

"Of course it exists. And under normal circumstances, we will not occupy the entire universe. Like the Large Magellanic Cloud next door, we will not occupy it. We are just assimilating some fallen ones."

After the Alev civilization elaborated on his ideas, he left. Only Zhang Yuan was left, staying in a daze...

Will human beings stop this crazy civilization? Not really.

Moreover, human beings have jumped out of the chessboard, from chess pieces to chess players. It seems that the Alev civilization will not take the initiative to attack humans.

Actually, if superhuman beings are truly promoted to the fifth level of civilization, there is no problem at all if they want to shelter the people on earth who have already sunk.

For the Noah faction, one more or one less standard intelligence unit does not make much difference. It is like a cell inside the human body. It doesn't matter whether one is dead or one is alive, and you don't even perceive it.

Aleph civilization will not go head-to-head with a fifth-level civilization because of such a small matter, otherwise it will only waste its time for no reason.

However, with so much information all at once, Zhang Yuan's mentality has undergone a miraculous change...

The sky that humans have seen before is too small and too small, and they are always struggling with trivial things. And now, after receiving this series of invitations, it is as if a frog at the bottom of the well jumped out of the bottom of the well, and the sky that she saw suddenly expanded countless times!

Following the next, the ball of light unexpectedly reappeared, and a faction named Engineers sent him an invitation.

The engineer said ambitiously: "We want to know the shape of the universe! This is our goal! This shape refers to an abstract description of mathematics! We have designed a lot of experiments, and you will definitely be interested in it. !"

"The universe is at a high latitude. Even if it is a very powerful civilization, it is difficult to see the full picture of the universe. So what is the shape of the universe? Is it saddle shape, swimming ring shape, or spherical?"

"For this we have designed some special methods..."

Zhang Yuan roughly understood the meaning of this "engineer".

Measure.

They are measuring the entire universe through super technology!

A simple example: Galileo, the great sailor, proved that the earth is a spherical shape through the action of circumnavigating the world.

Actually, this proof is not rigorous.

The ability to travel around the world means that the earth may be a ball, but it may also be in the shape of a swimming ring. After all, the shape of the swimming ring can also travel around the world.

So how to exclude this option? The famous Pangjialai conjecture (theorem) can rule out this.

For a simple analogy, put a rubber band on a ball, and then slowly shrink the rubber band upwards. This ring will shrink to a point at the pole of the ball;

But if you put a rubber band on the swimming ring, no matter how you move and shrink it, it will not shrink to a point.

Describe in mathematical language: Any single connected, closed three-dimensional manifold must be homeomorphic to a three-dimensional sphere. This theorem also holds for high-dimensional spaces.

The tools used by "engineers" are similar mathematics and super technological capabilities.

According to what the engineers just described, they created the giant gravity source.

"...If you observe the source of giant gravitation~IndoMTL.com~, you can know that it is the special experiment we initiated to measure the shape of the universe, and the natural context of the universe is used in the middle. It’s just that. , The research in this area has not yet reached a real conclusion, and there are still several different viewpoints."

"If you are interested in this, you can consider joining us."

After that, the ball of light represented by the engineer left, leaving Zhang Yuan to stay in place, recalling the description of this super civilization just now.

It's incredible.

Zhang Yuan's heart is surging and excited.

"Giant Attractor" refers to a certain gravitational anomaly located near the center of the local supercluster, and galaxies about hundreds of millions of light-years away are also affected by it!

All galaxies have redshifts. According to Hubble's law, it shows that they and the earth are regressing each other, but the redshift reveals this unreasonable phenomenon. The original humans had no idea why this happened, but now there is a conclusion: it is a super experiment conducted by the "engineer" faction.
