Chapter 18 Here comes a big guy!
"...does it exist as a beacon?" This idea popped up in Li Wenyuan's mind.
The ruins in front of me are too special, there is nothing inside, as if it is just a large landmark.
"If you think about it this way, it seems very suitable to exist as a beacon. With such a large surface area, there must be quite a lot of signals that can be received..."
The more he thought about it, the more he felt it was possible, and at the same time, the group of aliens started discussing it again.
“…resurrecting the dead may sound like a fantasy, but it may not be impossible with the technology of that lost civilization.”
"If this is the case, then there should be some activation method that we don't know about in this ruin, and we might be able to use this to revive Fatty."
"Having said that, we assume that these two ruins come from the same civilization. What if they are actually from different civilizations? In this case, all previous conclusions can only be overturned."
The final words caused everyone present to fall into dead silence. After a while, Cowper spoke:
"... I actually have a hunch that these two ruins should be from the same civilization."
"Hunch? Can you still say this kind of delusion that has been falsified a long time ago? We need a more scientific basis, not an idealistic 'feeling'." The young man habitually mocked Cowper.
But when it fell into Li Wenyuan's ears, it gave him new inspiration.
"Spirituality? Speaking of which, I remember that there are a lot of damaged facilities on this planet that need to be repaired by 'Zello'... Isn't this something only used by spirituality civilization?"
"Could it be that human beings have finally embarked on the path of idealism?"
Li Wenyuan thought for a while, and put a question mark for the time being.
He heard that idealists hate "artificial intelligence" extremely, thinking that it is defiled the sacred "consciousness".
Then what about his own "Guardian Matrix" artificial intelligence?
The idea that he couldn't figure out was temporarily recorded in the notepad, and now he decided to use Zello to try it in this ruin, maybe it could trigger something.
So 95% of the canned Zello kept in the storage warehouse were brought over by the synthesizer under his order, and only a little bit left to repair the "dimension manufacturing machine" remained.
The synthetic man with Zelo is flying towards the inverted pyramid at dozens of times the speed of sound. Even if it needs to circle the earth half a circle, it didn't take long to reach the top of the inverted pyramid.
Li Wenyuan first released a little Zello on the huge plane at the top of the inverted pyramid, but this purple gas quickly floated into the sky and disappeared without a trace, failing to give him new discoveries.
Immediately afterwards, he released Zello around the inverted pyramid, but the result was the same, and there was no response.
Finally, he brought Zelo into the interior of the inverted pyramid, and slowly opened the container.
The purple misty gas gradually floated up, and soon touched the weathered limestone wall.
Then, a magical scene happened.
Zero gas frantically poured into the limestone like water meeting a sponge.
The amount of a can even dissipated and disappeared before Li Wenyuan could react, leaving only an empty shell.
The next moment, the weathered rock seemed to be infused with life, emitting a faint purple light, which quickly spread to the entire rock wall through the connected gaps, and soon turned the inside of the inverted pyramid into a luminous body.
Such an astonishing scene not only shocked Li Wenyuan, but also panicked the aliens.
"What happened? Did someone flip a switch?"
I saw the purple light instantly illuminate the space deep in the ruins, and strange lines slowly appeared in front of everyone under the light.
The intricate network constitutes a huge star map, and hundreds of millions of light spots represent star systems all over it, and some of them are particularly bright, which seems to indicate what is in this place.
"Is this... a star map of this galaxy?" Cowper looked at the three-dimensional graphic in disbelief, struck by the level of detail.
At the same time, the top plane of the inverted pyramid also slowly opened.
The ruins, which no one knew how to open, started working again.
Sunlight shot into the interior of the ruins through the opening, but the star spots quickly dissipated one by one as if they were confirmed, and finally only an inconspicuous small spot remained, still shining slightly.
Inexplicably, Li Wenyuan felt that this point of light represented the solar system.
Those aliens are also guessing wildly at this moment.
"This ruin seems to be activated! What will happen?"
"Maybe we should find a safer place to stay, I didn't see the black fog!"
It seemed that someone wanted to leave the ruins, but the old professor shouted:
"I will never leave here!" At this time, his eyes were red, even if he looked directly at the sun, he still wanted to see the sky.
"I have been studying alien relics for half my life. This is the first time I have seen a relic that has been successfully activated. No matter what consequences it will bring, I must witness it with my own eyes. Even if I pay this life!" The old professor said for the first time Once showed his madness about the relics.
Cowper also didn't move, his instinct told him he couldn't miss this moment.
At this time, a large number of notifications appeared in the virtual world where Li Wenyuan was located.
【Announcement from the automatic defense system】
【Detected strong subspace fluctuations】
【Announcement from the listening station in deep space】
【Detected strong subspace fluctuations】
…
There are a lot of them, but without exception, they are all "detected strong subspace fluctuations".
And unexpectedly, none of the subsystems issued an "alert", all of them were "notifications", as if they were already familiar with this subspace fluctuation.
In the next moment, it was still sunny day in the first second, and it entered the night in the next second.
The sky as thick as ink could not see any light, as if a giant beast swallowed all the stars, leaving the land in an endless night.
"...Why did the sky suddenly turn black? Isn't the effect of this relic not resurrecting the dead, but changing the day and night of the planet?"
Someone in the ruins raised a question. At this time, the only light was the bright inner wall and the small star system on the star map that had almost disappeared.
"...No," Cowper suddenly said, with indescribable shock in his eyes.
"It's not that it's getting dark... but that 'something' has come here and blocked the entire sky..."
…
【Here is the Subspace Mobile Fleet Combat AI】
【The connection with the guardianship matrix has been reestablished, and the control right is now handed over to the guardianship matrix】
…
【Mobile combat module is online】
【Completion of guardianship matrix: 35%】
【More guardianship rights have been opened】
Li Wenyuan stared dumbfounded at the outrageously large "ship" model in the database. He didn't think it could be related to "maneuvering".
