Chapter 87 Immortal Lighthouse
Although the situation in the galaxy has generally fallen into calm again, all civilizations know that storms are coming. In addition to signing various diplomatic agreements, they are also frantically improving themselves.
The improvement of military strength and technological strength is one aspect, and the search for the history of the lost empire is also one aspect.
They want to know what happened? Is it possible for these civilizations to gain anything?
The archaeological civilization that was preparing to migrate with the family was also noticed by the civilizations that often deal with them, and finally had to share their previous discoveries under increasing diplomatic pressure.
"...Ring World?" When this piece of information spread rapidly across the galaxy, Li Wenyuan also noticed the content, and gradually showed a thoughtful expression.
According to that archaeological civilization, they once discovered a ruined ring world in a certain galaxy, which buried the history related to the lost empire.
Now the galactic civilizations are frantically sending people into that galaxy, wanting to find out.
"...This time it should not be a ring world created by humans..."
The archaeological civilization gave a brand new coordinate, a place that even Li Wenyuan hadn't explored.
He didn’t think that every new discovery was related to human beings. The Milky Way has such a long history. It is not impossible for any civilization to create such a “face project”.
"However, I still need to take a look. How can such a major event related to lost history be done without my participation?"
So a scientific research spacecraft that was near the coordinates of the galaxy turned around and rushed there, and soon entered the target galaxy together with all the civilizations.
As Li Wenyuan expected, the moment he entered, he determined that the destroyed ring world had nothing to do with humans.
Although it has been blasted into several sections, the style it adopts can be vaguely recognized. It is really ugly.
Li Wenyuan believes that normal human aesthetics will not like this style, only aliens will like it.
Explorers of other interstellar civilizations didn’t pay too much attention to this style issue, but began to continuously transmit data from the moment they entered here. After all, the ring world is still quite a rare building for most civilizations.
Although they also noticed that there was a scientific research spaceship exuding the "lost empire atmosphere", but everyone came to investigate, and no one cared about it.
And Li Wenyuan didn't have any idea about the destroyed ring world itself. Just like the archaeological civilization said, because it suffered too much damage, it has no repair value at all.
Even though he thinks he can repair this place, the resources, time and energy spent are enough for him to rebuild a ring world.
He is now only interested in its origin and the secrets hidden above.
While other civilizations were still observing, he was the first to let the scientific research spacecraft approach.
This ring world suffered more complete damage than his "Epsilon Shelter", and even the ring world that was blown up by "End of Reincarnation" was far inferior.
It can almost be said that what revolves around the stars here is a circle of "fragments" around the world. It's hard to imagine what happened here.
As the scientific research spacecraft approached, the scenery on the fragments of the ring world of different sizes were also uploaded to the database.
Even the "Epsilon Shelter" controlled by Li Wenyuan doesn't have so many buildings. Obviously, the former owner of this ring world has made good use of every piece of land on it.
But in addition to these almost completely destroyed buildings, he also found that there are a large number of robots here.
Most of them disappeared with the destruction of the ring world, and the broken machines wandered in space, or became part of the split earth.
There is a place where he thought it was a fragment of the ring world at first glance, but after getting closer, he realized that it was a large group of intertwined robots. If these robots were regarded as life, then this scene can be said to be horrifying.
"...Will this be related to any lost empire? Is it the 'far traveler'?" Li Wenyuan's first thought was this.
He knew that as the lost empires of extreme materialistic "Far Travelers", they were still using robots to a high degree. Even if their main species were prosthetics, they also had a group of robot attendants comparable in number to them.
These robotic servants, which are similar to but different from servitors, use a "service agreement" to provide services for their master "far traveler", but their intelligence is not too high, and they cannot even be called "omnics". Just a mechanical body.
If this broken ringworld has anything to do with "Farstrider", then the large number of robot corpses and building ruins here also make sense.
"... If this is the case, then this ring world was blown up by the 'Watcher'?"
Li Wenyuan recalled the ancient battlefield that he and Gray Wind had seen before, and the remains of the fleet at that level were almost the same as the endless war, but obviously this "endless" war did not continue, because the two protagonists The lost empires still exist.
He felt that if his ring world was blown up like this, he would definitely be immortal. As for why the two lost empires ended the war again, this is still a mystery.
The spaceship continued to scan, and the explorers of other civilizations also approached the ring world after uploading the data for the first time, and began their own exploration.
Soon, through the scanning of the spaceship, Li Wenyuan discovered a building ruin that might be the "Ring World Control Center".
Because the architectural style here is very different from that of human beings, he can only judge the function of the ruins of this building by the size and the area where it is located.
However, this giant building is indeed easy to attract attention. Even if it is not the control center, Li Wenyuan is ready to explore it carefully.
As the scanning continued to progress, he found traces of recent excavations here. According to the time calculation, it may have been done by the archaeological civilization that provided the coordinates here.
Following this fresh clue, he found a port that could be accessed in a certain part of this giant building, and there were traces of use.
Even though there is no adapter in the galaxy today that can adapt, civilizations that want to do archaeology naturally have their own ways to solve this problem.
A small group of nanobots on board the drone began to adapt this access port in a targeted manner, and then let the drone connect to the ruins of the building.
The building that seems to have lost its vitality in the long history has left some records after all, and let Li Wenyuan see a dilapidated story.
【Immortal Beacon No. {Data Corruption} Archives】
【{DATA CORRUPTED}Periodic record: ...the rest of the people did not choose the same path as us. I used to think that we were all inseparable, but I didn’t expect that some people would still choose to escape at the last moment】
【Now there are not only external enemies, but even our own internal divisions】
【why? Isn't this the best way to find the "Apocalypse"? They are afraid, our ideas have not convinced everyone]
【"Evolution" failed, now we are no longer regarded as the same race, this "immortal lighthouse" will be our final destination】
