Silent Crown Chapter 822: Something unknown

In the early morning of the third day, Ye Xuan opened his eyes from his drowsiness, feeling drowsy.

"So fast? And it's still midnight?"

He walked out of the cell blankly, looked around, and saw the commissioner standing by the door waiting.

"The research laboratory officially made a report an hour ago." The commissioner said: "The captain is waiting for you."

"Um, thank you."

Ye Xuan nodded and followed behind. When he went out, he heard the guards spit in disdain. He didn't have eyes behind him, but he could guess that the eyes of those people looking at him were not so friendly.

Along the way, everyone on the side of the road showed a gloomy expression, not seeing the joy and joy of a few days ago.

Of course.

The crew members who originally found the new land were extinguished by a sudden accident after being ignited by hope. At this moment, let alone the lifelessness of the ship, if there is no mutiny, it is already the captain of the captain.

Ye Xuan, who caused the accident by one hand, can naturally understand everyone's anger and hatred towards him.

Even in confinement, he heard many rumors on the ship.

As for the mysterious ‘unknown substance’, I don’t know how many weird hypotheses are circulating among the crew.

Some people said it was a conspiracy by other immigrant ships, some people said it was a forgery accident, and there were even more nonsense people who thought it was an alien weapon and an attack on humans.

As for why they attacked, some people simply moved out the dark forest theory hundreds of years ago.

The science fiction novel that has long been forgotten in the database has also been turned over. The debate about whether there is a mysterious weapon that can turn the universe into paper is not uncommon even in virtual space...

Even if we have reached the present age, even if human beings have been floating in the stars for fifty years, even if everyone has never seen an alien hair so far...

Along the way, Ye Huan was thinking wildly in his mind.

After the elevator door opened, he realized: "We went wrong."

"Yes."

The commissioner stood at the door and replied blankly: "This is it."

Now, there is a bad thing, a good thing, and another thing that I don't know whether it is good or bad but makes him very disturbed is before Ye Xuan.

They should go to the meeting room, but unfortunately, this is not the way to the meeting room.

Fortunately, it does not lead to the "clean zone"-generally after the most serious violation of the regulations, after a committee vote, the crew will be sent there, trapped in iron chairs, and the injection point is calm. He was drooling, waiting for someone in another room to press a button, and he was broken down into particles, thrown into the incinerator, and disappeared.

And that's what makes him uneasy.

The mistake he made is not an exaggeration to be executed secretly, but now, he is not going to the conference room where the sentence is heard, nor the clean area where the death penalty is secretly executed.

It is the private domain of the captain.

——The bridge.

With an immigration ship, there is no such thing as a chief mate and a second mate. If the things on the ship are agreed by the crew committee, then how to sail the ship is up to the captain.

No one even sailed, the Eastern Prince, Nibelungen, and Hermes would coordinate with each other to drive the ship down safely.

Most of the time, it is automatic navigation, and the captain only needs to make decisions.

Because of this, the bridge is the highest expression of the captain's authority.

Not to mention Ye Xuan, even if other committee members are not allowed to enter this space, let alone enter the bridge.

Now, the commissioner sends himself here...

Ye Xuan's head started to move.

He doesn't like political struggle, but that doesn't mean he is not good at it. He is the head of the mental control room, and he is instinctive to profile and mentally monitor people.

So, now there are two possibilities.

The greatest possibility is that someone wants to kill themselves, and use the topic to create some trouble, or... riot?

His scalp tightened.

Riots are possible.

The disaster that occurred on the new land made everyone feel depressed and irritable to the extreme, just like a gunpowder storehouse, with only one spark.

But he didn't want to be the victim of the first shot of change.

What's more, he feels that the government on the ship is very good now-especially after seeing the dictatorship on another ship. Steve's tragic way of guarding against death even if he slobbered, he didn't want to repeat it on himself.

Even if I am dead by then.

What about the eldest grandson?

So, who wants to use themselves? Or...kill yourself?

Bai Nan? That annoying guy is indeed possible in the end, but that guy lacks IQ anywhere except technology. I have always been used as a gun by others, my brain is limited, and I can't understand myself, but I just think that psychology is a pseudo-science.

So, Liu Dongli? He wants to place the mental monitoring room under the medical institution. It’s not a day or two now, or maybe Zhao Qian? The guy smiled when he saw everyone. He looked like a long-sleeved dancer, but he had an extremely narcissistic personality in his heart, and he didn't care about anyone at all.

Still...

Standing in silence, the commissioner waited quietly outside the elevator, but Ye Xuan was motionless.

Until the elevator prompt sounds.

Ye Xuan still didn't move.

"Sorry, my stomach hurts a bit."

Ye Xuan smiled: "I want to go to the toilet."

"Don't be nonsense, Ye Xuan, use your brain where it should be used."

Captain Xiao Huan's voice sounded from the elevator announcement: "Either come in or roll away. I don't want to spend time waiting for a waste."

Well, the last possibility is the captain who wants to kill himself.

Ye Xuan shrugged helplessly.

There is really no way.

Xiao still wants to kill himself, not even a look in his eyes.

In short, misfortune cannot be avoided...

He sighed, prepared for the commissioner to pull out a small pistol against the back of his head and pull the trigger at any time, and strode towards the bridge.

When the bridge door opened, his head hadn't exploded.

Greeting to congratulate, gratifying to congratulate.

Then he saw a huge starry sky.

Behind the wide and almost suffocating floor-to-ceiling portholes, the dark universe is dotted with endless stars, and directly opposite, the huge planet land is shining with silver light.

Silver light rushes, stirring the ocean, showing the brilliant iridescence to outsiders.

It seems to have awakened from its long sleep, no longer silent.

"It's so beautiful."

Xiao was still sitting in the chair next to the porthole and looked back at him: "Isn't it?"

"Is there hot water?"

Ye Huan found a place to sit down and wiped his nose with two tissues.

If you come, you will be safe.

Besides, he is still very curious now, why the captain would suddenly summon himself to the bridge.

"Have you been beaten?" Xiao still saw the black green on his face, gloating, "Would you like someone to arrange a single room for you?"

"Forget it, I have been beaten a few times now, I at least feel better in my heart."

Ye Xuan sighed: "But what do you think? The crew's emotions have reached the alert line, right? According to the usual handling methods, it should have been forced to stabilize emotions long ago."

"Isn’t it because someone in the mental management room was locked up in the confinement room? Even if the committee passes a vote to force stability, let’s not say let you get an injection, the crew will riot just by seeing your face ?"

"My fault."

Ye Xuan sighed.

As a psychiatrist, when the patient is regarded as the enemy, he has completely failed. Although necessary, treatment can be mandatory. But Ye Xuan was really not interested in that set.

If psychotherapy is regarded as art by him, then electric shocks and lobectomy are the explosives that destroy art, and the damage to personality and consciousness is no different from killing.

Perhaps, I should choose a successor earlier?

He thought inexplicably.

After this incident, he can't do long work in the mental monitoring room. I'm afraid I can only look through the information in the hibernation talent pool and find someone who can take over, right?

"I'll talk about your business later."

Xiao also pinched out the cigarette, "Let’s do the right thing first."

A thick pile of materials was placed in front of Ye Xuan.

I just got off the printer, still hot.

Unfortunately, Ye Xuan's eyes hurt just looking at the large number of professional terms on the cover. With the development of technology, the distance of each branch in the research is getting farther and farther. To a certain extent, it is no longer interlaced like a mountain, and a few more solar systems will be added almost in the middle.

"I don't understand."

Ye Xuan rolled his eyes: "Captain, can I tell you something simply and frankly?"

"I came to you, I just want you to listen to the analysis of the "unknown substance" by the research laboratory." Xiao also calmly said: "I think you should be interested."

"I'm the only one?" Ye Xuan looked around the empty space: "What is this? The first version? I heard that the quality of the gun version is not very good."

The captain did not answer his question head-on, but just knocked on the table:

"Don't worry, I also found someone to help you explain."

So the floor cracked.

The huge vessel has risen from under the floor. It is a vacuum container almost three meters high and two meters wide.

Through the heavy glass, he can see the ‘unknown substances’ collected from the landing device, which are deposited on the base like falling snow, with a certain metallic texture and the luster of mercury flowing.

No signs of activity are visible.

The rickety researcher walked in from the door, as if he hadn't moved for a long time. His eye circles were black and skinny, which perfectly matched Ye Xuan's impression of the people in the research room.

The huge screen has been projected from the dome, beside him.

"I have heard the specific briefing from Nibelungen. This time I will mainly introduce to you. If you don't understand, you can ask directly."

Xiao also finished talking to Ye Xuan, lit a cigarette again, and waved to the researcher: "Time is running out, Mr. Roland, let's start."

"Then, let me explain for the two of you--what a miracle the discovery of unknown matter is."

The skinny researcher held up the material in his hand, and his eyes became frenzied: "Trust me, gentlemen, how much is the comparison, even if the initial sacrifice is ten times more, no, a hundred times is acceptable! "

Ye Huan frowned.

Thinking about it, but did not speak.

Although it can be seen that the other party is justifying his mistake, he can't be happy anyway.

Don't say ten times...

If the eldest grandson dies, I am afraid I will never be able to forgive myself for the rest of my life.

Xiao also knocked on the table, interrupting Roland's excitement:

"It is better to say less about irrelevant things."

"Ahem, then I will start."

The researcher coughed awkwardly, and after contemplating the wording, he said: "In the beginning, the research room actually, as many people imagined, guessed that the unknown matter covering the entire planet was an alien civilization. The weapon created.

In fact, this conjecture was rejected at the beginning of the research, so please don't worry about it. "

Not an alien weapon?

Although he had already sneered at this set of hypotheses, Ye Xuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this, and a boulder fell in his heart.

That's great, it's not an alien conspiracy.

Fortunately, fortunately.

If Yuan Eryi's gorilla was here, he would definitely be upset. He had been looking forward to finding some enemies to do a fight.

Ye Xuan also relaxed a little.

Although he is restrained on the surface, his curiosity about unknown substances is not inferior to anyone.

"As long as it is not the weapon of the Zenith Stars, otherwise we will choose a little girl to sing "Did You Remember Love"." After relaxing, he began to make some cold jokes that no one knew.

"Well, correct your opinion."

Roland said seriously, "Regarding unknown substances, they are actually... the alien civilization itself!"

Silence.

Ye Xuan hasn't reacted yet, looking at him blankly, then at Xiao Huan.

Don't understand what it means.

"Although under the observation of a high-power microscope, their individuals are almost identical without any difference, but their essence is not a self-replicating self-discipline machine like the'von Neumann machine'."

Roland said:

"—They are creatures."

"Aliens?"

For an instant, Ye Xuan almost bounced off his chair, dumbfounded, and pointed to the vacuum dish in the middle of the room.

"Is this the alien from the deceptive story when we were young?"

He looked at Xiao Huan, and finally at Roland, he was a rare gaffe: "Are you **** kidding me?"

He waited for this answer for so long, making many guesses in his heart, and even prepared for the day that he might not survive the answer.

As a result, after solving the intricate mystery, you, like those authors who liked to deceive manuscript fees hundreds of years ago, told me: These are all aliens?

"areyoukiddingme?"

Roland coughed awkwardly and continued: "Mr. Ye, the term alien is not accurate. Although they are extraterrestrial creatures, they do not meet the definition of human beings, and..."

Xiao was still impatient, and interrupted him by tapping on the table: "Just talk about the subject!"

"Yes, yes..."

Roland nodded in a panic, and then began to pull out a large number of headaches of technical terms, mixed with some slightly understandable words:

"...After careful research and testing, we believe that the ‘unknown substance’ is a silicon-based organism that is completely different from all the carbon-based organisms we know today.

Look at the screen. You see, it is completely different from all the creatures, cells, and bacteria in the earth circle. It has its own unique base and structure...

It can be assured that for ordinary people, this is just a new kind of bacteria, and there is nothing to care about. "

After half an hour of wordy, that's just a little bit of useful information.

Ye Xuan, who was impatient for a long time, took a rare cigarette and sorted out his confused thoughts.

"Well, let's admit that they are creatures...the natives of Newland, um, are like the Indians in history...then why do they attack us? Because we want to scalp them?"

"Not an attack."

The researcher explained, "It's just that they ‘eat’ normally."

"They cannibalize?!"

The impulse brought by the moment was even better than the previous one, and a horrified trembling from the back of his heels made Ye Xuan scream.

"No, no, no! Please listen to my explanation!"

The researcher hurriedly added: They are so small that they don't even have any digestive system. The so-called eating is only energy intake, and the energy source they consume is ‘sound’.

According to our guess, because of this, the landing of the probe ship caused such a terrifying aftermath.

Therefore, I think your harshness to Mr. Ye is innocent. Even without him, it would be sooner or later to cause such a disaster. "

I finally said something!

Ye Huan's chaotic mood suddenly eased a little.

Not because of regaining innocence, but because of causing the eldest grandson to become such a person, not myself.

Otherwise, he really has no face to face his eldest grandson.

"I'll talk about your business later."

Xiao also glanced at him, then said to the researcher, "You continue."

"Ahem, the introduction just now continues... We don't know what environment formed their special form. I'm afraid this is a coincidence that is difficult to guess and recover.

But there is no doubt that they are the group that occupies the main body of the planet. "

Roland said: "Because of their existence, the sounds on the entire planet are all attenuated. Only the seaside area still has traces of activity due to the tide. The rest of the area has all fallen into a state of hibernation."

Until now, Ye Xuan's mood finally calmed down.

Okay, calm down a little bit.

As a colonizer of humans and the New World, the first thing he thought of was a problem.

"So, is there a possibility of extinction and eradication?"

"Why extinction?"

The researcher was stunned for a moment, his voice increased several degrees, and immediately became more excited, his voice increased: "No! It must not be extinct! You don't know what a great discovery this is!

We, no, the future of mankind will be changed by this discovery! "

"But you also said that its food is sound? Then, it will harm humans."

Ye Xuan asked curiously: "Regardless of the voice of speech, the internal organs of human beings have different frequencies. Just being alive will cause this kind of abnormal movement. The circulation and balance of the human body are very fragile. If this What happens if I plant something into human internal organs? Bump your head and blow it up?

And what about the sounds and infrasound waves released by our large engineering equipment, even when the spacecraft engine is running?

Just the take-off and landing of a landing ship caused this level of disaster, so what will happen to the sound of a large mining machine? Also, what about other super giant devices? Will it become a natural disaster by then? ! "

The researcher's face turned pale, and he stammered and replied: "Although it is indeed possible to form some unknown changes in calculations and simulations... But... it can also be used by humans... I am Say..."

He looked at the captain as if for help.

Xiao also nodded: "I said, grant Ye Xuan all the right to know, and show him that."

Roland nodded ecstatically, ran to the vacuum vessel, and began to adjust the parameters.

The operation is cumbersome.

"During research, we found that they have different responses to sounds of different frequencies, and there are fixed patterns that we don't understand, just like formula input parameters to get a fixed answer. It's like... …It’s like…"

Roland searched for adjectives, but couldn't find an appropriate description until someone next to him added something for him.

"Language."

Ye Xuan said.

"Yes, language!" The researcher nodded excitedly: "It's like language! We can influence them through sound, just like ordering a computer through 0 and 1!"

He finally fixed the obstructive panel, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and pressed against the touch screen.

At that moment, a deep melody sounded from the bridge.

It's the piano sound.

Like running water.

""Gymnopedies"?"

Ye Xuan blurted out.

Because there is a classical music part in some psychotherapy, he knew about it, but he didn't expect to encounter it here.

Perceiving Xiao's curious gaze, he explained:

"This is a piano piece created by classical musician Satie more than four hundred years ago. Literally translated, it can be understood as'naked-body singing and dancing'.

Taken from the melody of the Greeks when they sacrificed to gods in more ancient times. After the naked-body young man applied the holy oil, he danced for the gods in front of the temple..."

The words stopped abruptly before they were finished.

Because in front of everyone, in the glass cover, the silent "unknown substance" like falling snow lit up.

They float slowly from the bottom, suspended in the center of the vessel, converge and expand...like the proliferation of snowflakes, forming magnificent crystals, with a faint glow extending in all directions...

In the pure glow, a unique beauty of mathematics and topology is revealed.

"Please bring this."

Roland distributed two heavy glasses to them. The glasses are specially made, and there is even a cable to connect to the wetware socket on the back of everyone's head to connect to the brain.

Although he didn't know, Ye Xuan put on his eyes.

The plug-in starts.

The sharp sound of friction between the seat and the floor sounded.

Ye Xuan stood up from the seat, backed in amazement, staggered, and almost fell to the ground.

"What is this...?"

His voice is shaking.

With the help of special equipment, he overcame the visual barriers and observed the true changes in the "unknown matter".

It was a magnificent crystal that seemed to cover the whole world.

After the huge hexahedron crosses the dimensions, the high-level elements that are inaccessible to humans drop a magnificent projection, and'condescend' forms an insignificant shape in the human world.

The world is contained in its radiance.

What they can see with their naked eyes is nothing but a shadow dropped by the behemoth. At this moment, relying on mechanical perception, they can see its change in case.

Just staring, I'm already dazzled and incomprehensible.

Beyond the limitations of length, width, quantity, and temperature~IndoMTL.com~ its form slowly stretches in a higher dimension, just like a short awakening from a long sleep.

But when the piano music stopped, the magnificent glow finally dissipated, and the huge outline that appeared to be hidden from the upper dimension collapsed into a ‘snow powder’ of less than one millimeter.

Long silence.

Ye Xuan took off his glasses.

"What is that?"

"That is what the unknown substance really looks like."

No matter how many times I watched it, Roland still couldn't hide his excitement, and said with a trembling: "They are'unfolded'. They... have entered the higher dimension."

It was quiet.

"Don't you understand? Mr. Ye, it is different from us humans who are limited by sight, hearing and touch. They are not three-dimensional creatures!

They have their own world.

Their perception and interference can even enter higher dimensions. What you perceive just now is even hard to reach one ten thousandth of what they perceive themselves... For them who are fully awakened, space and even time are meaningless!

——They themselves are the crystallization of ‘string theory’ and ‘quantum physics’, a miracle of evolution! "

Speaking of this, the researchers became more and more enthusiastic: "Not only that, according to our tests, they are also excellent information storage media!

Although the ability of individual information storage is not outstanding, their storage space is based on the number of individuals that can be raised to the power level!

And the interaction between them is carried out through high-level dimensions, even in theory, there is no delay!

As long as the most basic network and structure are built through their deep connections and interactions, what we get is not only a new earth, but also an unprecedented planetary chaotic computing model! "

"Soul..."

Ye Xuan whispered softly.
