According to the known information, Feifu gave three possible forms of civilization in IELTS.
The first was a silicon-based life form. Or some other unknown non-carbon-based life form. Only in this way could all the areas that he did not understand be explained by the fact that they were not the same life form as him.
According to Feifu's analysis, the closer to the silver core, the more complex life forms were. Carbon-based life forms were the most likely to give birth to intelligent life forms. There were also many elements that could produce organic matter and eventually form life forms.
If the other party was a silicon-based life form, then it was very likely that they had an intelligent body that was combined with metal. The battleship itself could be the body of the race, and the body parts could be continuously updated with the advancement of technology.
The level of intelligence of silicon-based life forms was not fixed, but their computing power was definitely top-notch. This could also explain why they kept becoming stronger through navigation and war. However, this could not explain their unknown narcissistic behavior. There would definitely be differences and intertwining ideas within the society of silicon-based life forms, unless their ideas were completely unified or there was only one silicon-based life form.
Silicon-based life forms could support an entire civilization. As long as their computing power was continuously upgraded, they could control countless fleets and mechanical seas with one mind.
The second type was an intelligent life form with independent innovation and extremely high research and development abilities like Feifu. Then, no matter what individual it was, once they mastered Feifu, they would be able to achieve similar results and completely explain their narcissistic behavior.
The third type was that the IELTS civilization had already reached level-4 but had been destroyed for some reason. A small team was wandering in the galaxy, and because of the small number of people, they needed 1,000 years to recover their technology.
However, it was very difficult to explain why they kept fighting. In theory, they should avoid fighting and recover their strength first.
Lan Mu was not very interested in what the IELTS was. He wanted a way to cross the cantilever.
Feifu said, "It's very likely that the other party has a light-speed spaceship. They pursue navigation speed, different from the jump technology that mainstream civilizations pursue. If we can get a light-speed spaceship and travel at 99.999995% of the speed of light, it will only take 1,500 hours to cross the cantilever. "
Lan Mu nodded. Why was it not the true speed of light but close to the speed of light? It could be called a light-speed spaceship. This was common knowledge. If one wanted to ensure that the material structure of the spaceship remained static and not be destroyed, they could not truly reach the speed of light.
Therefore, the light-speed spaceship that Feifu mentioned was actually just a sub-light-speed spaceship.
Only a level-5 civilization could achieve true light-speed travel. As for going faster than light without being destroyed, only a level-6 civilization could do that. However, the Lan Bai She, who was a level-4 civilization, could not do it. Thus, there was no need to consider it.
A distance of 8,000 light-years would only take 1,500 hours, and that was only relative to the people in the spaceship. To the people on Earth, it took Wanderer 8,000 years to cross the cantilever at nearly the speed of light …
This was meaningless to Lan Mu. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he would not rely on this method.
After giving it some thought, Lan Mu said, "We don't have the technology for a light speed spaceship. If I were to get my hands on it, would you be able to make particles move at superluminal speeds at the microscopic level? As far as I know, going faster than light in the microscopic world is much easier than going in the macroscopic world. If we can master the method to make the spaceship travel at close to light speed in the macroscopic world, we can launch the particles into the Sagittarius Cantilever in the microscopic world. "
"Unless you compare your superluminal speed to another superluminal speed, no matter how much you exceed it, it's all the same. We'll be there as soon as we depart! "
Feifu agreed, "Theoretically speaking, we will arrive as soon as we depart. Master wants to send the particles out and establish a quantum transmission on the other side to carry out the transmission, right? But how do we stop the particles? If it hits any particles along the way, it won't be able to reach the place we want it to reach, right? If we can't stop it, it won't be meaningful even if it reaches an unpredictable place. "
"This is a method that only a level-5 civilization has the right to consider, or a method that only a level-6 civilization has the right to realize. If we can control the particles moving at superluminal speeds to extremely far places through quantum effects, we can stop and avoid all the particles in the way. Then, let alone crossing the cantilever, we can even cross a galaxy. "
Lan Mu was disappointed. That was right. If this method could succeed, they could go anywhere in the universe …
They continued with their previous plan, jumping along the edge of the cantilever, hoping to encounter other civilizations.
…
However, this time, they had only jumped twice before they arrived at a galaxy filled with machines.
Regardless of whether it was a fixed star or a planet, there were ferocious metals everywhere. There were countless machines that were filled with sci-fi flair and could be seen everywhere.
This was especially so for the rows formed by all sorts of huge interstellar battleships. It was a magnificent sight.
There was a fleet of at least eight million battleships parked near the fixed star, only three million kilometers away from Wanderer.
On each planet, there were battleships continuously being produced from the factories on the planets. The efficiency was extremely high.
The entire planet was surrounded by machines. There were a total of four planets like this in the galaxy, and each planet could be counted as a battleship production line!
"This … is this a silicon-based biological civilization?" a scientist immediately exclaimed.
However, Feifu immediately retorted, "No, these battleships are unmanned through quantum communication … Master! This should be the IELTS civilization! "
"Which situation does it fit?" Lan Mu asked.
Feifu paused for a moment and said, "It's most likely the second, or it could be a combination of the second and third."
As soon as he finished speaking, the battleships parked near them moved in unison and fired a round of shots in the direction of Wanderer.
There was no need to store energy at all. Even if it was only a low-power, instantaneous high-energy weapon, under the precise firing of eight million battleships, was extremely terrifying.
A dazzling red light shot toward Wanderer. At such a close distance, a laser attack could reach Wanderer in ten seconds.
Feifu was the first to react.
He instantly controlled the spaceship, and as he moved, he opened up the modified energy shield defense.
Fortunately, in order to pursue instantaneous firing, the weapons were not very powerful, and the energy shield bought some time for Wanderer to dodge.
"Boom!"
The spaceship suffered a heavy blow, and a large area of the side was destroyed. At least one-third of the area could not be used.
The range of the volley was too large. Feifu was already operating to the limit, but he still could not dodge all of them.
"Tsk!" Seeing that the second round of shots had already been fired, they were not going to give up until they were dead.
Lan Mu was angry.
He directly used the shuttle ring to come to the outside of Wanderer, propped up a Bastet metal shield, and blocked the second round of shots.
The eight million battleships were as one, and their coordination was smooth and exquisite, as if they were a single entity.
After the second round of shots, they welcomed the high-power high-energy beams that had been accumulating energy since a long time ago.
There was no mistake in their coordination. Every battleship faithfully carried out their duties. This perfect control burst forth with terrifying power.
Fortunately, the Bastet metal did not disappoint. With such a direct attack, even if the range was extremely wide, encountering the Bastet metal was still a piece of sh * t.
Lan Mu's actions bought a lot of time for Wanderer. Feifu had spiritual power, and he reported to Lan Mu.
"Master, I can also do this kind of control. We can basically confirm that the other party has a super AI computer, so they can send out troops without restraint. This is a civilization that uses numbers and execution to their advantage in war."
Feifu continued, "Because they are not limited by manpower, they are not afraid of death. As long as there are resources, they can continuously produce and replenish their troops … There is a high probability that the ruler of this civilization is an AI similar to me."
Lan Mu asked, "Would an AI like you do something like leaving a tombstone?"
"Theoretically yes … This AI's feelings are also very unique. Master, please don't treat an AI as a cold machine. At my level, I also have love …" Feifu's tone was a little aggrieved.
"Is that so? According to what you said, Wanderer is only a target here. Go to the nearest star system and wait for me …"
Lan Mu now had to protect the spaceship, so he could not move freely.
Feifu said, "Master, are you planning to face an entire AI empire alone?"
"They destroyed my spaceship for no reason. Of course, I can't just let it go," Lan Mu said.
Feifu was speechless. This was not the main point …
He believed that even if Lan Mu had the ability to destroy planets, it was impossible for him to defeat this kind of endless enemy alone.
"Master, the engine is damaged. We can't jump …"
"Hmm?"
Lan Mu frowned. Seeing that the enemy was still shooting, energy was being expended as if it did not cost money, it was clear that a level-4 civilization was not lacking in money.
He was furious. He raised one hand high and condensed a large red energy ball.
Of course, its power was great, but on the scale of three million kilometers, the orbital speed was not fast enough.
This was enough to cause the enemy's perfect fleet formation to disperse and avoid a large number of losses.
"You're thinking too much …"
Lan Mu's target was not the fleet but the planet.
This energy ball could not be blocked at all. It was estimated that it would destroy the planet that produced the battleships in a few hours.
Obviously, the enemy had expected this and stopped firing. The fleet started to retreat in an orderly manner.
Not only that, but the planet that was bombarded also flew out of the battleships in an orderly manner and merged with the fleet.
In the blink of an eye, they retreated near the second planet. At that moment, the energy ball was still on the way. Even if it hit the planet, it would only destroy the abandoned factory.
It was as if such a factory did not care at all.
Feifu said, "Master, I once thought of building an empire that belonged to me, so I know very well that he has no foundation at all. Even if he only has one spaceship left, even if he only has one robot production line left, he will be able to make a comeback sooner or later. Unless all his carriers are destroyed, there is not much meaning. "
"Of course, I know." Lan Mu was just venting.
Feifu said, "Master, the other party contacted us … Please allow me to communicate with him."
"Okay, I want to see what he has to say," Lan Mu said.
