The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Before contacting the Prometheus database, Leo can be said to be full of expectations for the content in the database. He hopes to find the relationship between the world and the earth’s federal universe from the navigation data in the database, but now he After a rough glance at the information in the database, the content in it made him very disappointed because the information was greatly deleted.

Judging from the composition of the data types in the database, when the Earth Federation people who transformed Prometheus transferred the data of Prometheus to the current intelligent core, the people who carried out these tasks were very active All voyage data has been deleted. Since the voyage record of the spaceship of the Earth Federation has been included, there is also the voyage record of Prometheus.

Although Leo was unclear what happened at that time and let the supervisor here make such a decision, judging from the sequence of the data files in the database, the technical staff at that time did not have a detailed deletion list, just by analogy and retrieval Wait for the semi-intelligent method to find all the data related to navigation and delete them indiscriminately, so there is a lot of content deleted by mistake in these materials.

For example, in these data, there is a raw navigation data, which is the raw data that will be loaded on every navigator that comes out. The role of this data is not only used to test the operation of the spacecraft navigator, but also has Some of the original control codes for key functions of spacecraft engine operation, flight shields, space jumps, etc. This part of the data can be said to be the most important piece of information in spaceship navigation.

However, such a vital raw data file was also deleted indiscriminately, which eventually forced the subsequent technicians to rewrite a set of defective low-level code, barely maintaining the main control computer on the spacecraft. Control of equipment.

However, it is clear that the technician who wrote this set of code also knows how bad his code is, so he did not let this intelligent core control too many things, only a few key devices, such as the spaceship above the abyss entrance engine.

This can be regarded as a skew, and save Leo's time to write another control code. After leaving here, you can directly teach the part of the problem code to activate the spacecraft engine to the Lanxi City administrator.

Although the technicians at that time had deleted those sailing records as much as possible, obviously the technicians in charge of this matter had insufficient experience and relied too much on the intelligent retrieval function, instead of performing search and analysis according to their own abilities, which made some and The information related to navigation but not the navigation data is preserved, and the most useful one is a part of the navigation diary left by a navigator named Henry.

Because it is a diary, this information is classified into daily documents, and the search analysis level is the lowest. Although some of the diaries are searched and deleted because of the data related to navigation, there are still a large number of The navigation-related content is preserved, and these diaries can be preserved. The biggest reason is that the navigator who wrote the diary is a crappy poet. He always likes to use some verses to describe what he saw and heard on the navigation.

Although those verses are worthless in literature and art, they are good enough to be straightforward so that readers can easily know what is described. Through these descriptions, compare the time of each diary and add The speed of the spacecraft itself is enough for Leo to analyze the route of the spacecraft.

From the perspective of the route, this spaceship of the Earth Federation period was a caravan spaceship. The starting point of the spaceship route was Changan Star, the largest colonial planet in the early Earth Federation. The most famous scenery of this planet is the twelve moons, because This planet has twelve satellites of different sizes. Every ten years or so, twelve satellites will appear in the night sky at the same time. This scenery is also described in the navigator's diary.

Changan Star is not the earliest colony planet developed by the Earth Federation, but Changan Star is the best developed of all the colony planets developed, where the overall scale has exceeded the mother planet.

In the early expansion plan of the Earth Federation, Changan Star is also the core of these plans. Almost all activities related to the colony include commercial, military, and exploration activities. All of them use Changan Star as the starting star. At the end of the early development activities of the Earth Federation, The ruling center of the Earth Federation even moved to Changan Star, making Changan Star the capital planet of the Earth Federation.

This situation continued until the Earth Federation developed a faster spaceship, and contacted with more advanced alien civilizations. Knowing the wider universe, the colonial planet's scope also expanded to farther galaxies, and the location of Changan Star From the front to the large rear, its importance also rapidly decreased, and eventually changed back to an ordinary colonial star in the hinterland.

It is not difficult to see from the text in the diary that when this spacecraft set sail, Changan Star was the core of the colonial star of the Earth Federation, and it was mentioned in the diary that the Parliament of the Earth Federation has begun to propose the relocation of the ruling center to Changan Star, which is convenient The management of the colonial planet shows that the time at that time has reached the end of the early colonial development period.

After that, the spacecraft began to travel between various colonial planets along a golden route that was very famous in the early business history of the Earth Federation to carry out various commercial activities.

This route can be regarded as a lifeline for the Earth Federation at that time. Almost 70% of the commercial tax of the Earth Federation comes from this route. Almost all cross-galaxy commercial activities are related to this route. At that time, people also called this route the Caribbean route.

Because this route is similar to the colonial route of an ocean development period in the old earth era, they all have a large amount of commercial activities, and there are also a large number of pirates accompanying the commercial activities.

This is why this golden route was still so famous during the Earth Federation period where Leo was located, because there were countless battles between the interstellar pirates, caravans and the Earth Federation Fleet at that time, countless legendary Stories continue to happen on that route, until later these legends have become legends, continue to spread in various art forms in the star territory under the federal jurisdiction of the earth, enduring.

Although the Earth Federation people of the later generations yearned for the era when those legendary stories occurred, and regretted that they were not born in that magnificent era, but for those people at that time, sailing on this route is definitely not a happy thing, worrying. Fearing that a pirate fleet suddenly emerged from some places has become daily, and even many people have to rely on drugs to relax themselves.

In the navigator's diary, the lines revealed a fear and hatred of interstellar pirates. Even if his caravan had ten **** warships, the navigator did not feel any safety. These interstellar pirates are also the earth. One of the main reasons why the federal government plans to relocate the ruling center to Chang'an Xing.

However, the record of this golden route only occupies the general diary file. After the spacecraft reached the colonial planet Noyes, the spacecraft’s route changed, and even the function of the entire fleet changed. .

During the first major development period of the Earth Federation, the merchant fleet of large enterprises was not only engaged in commercial activities, but also sometimes acted as an expedition fleet, pioneering fleet, etc., activities that can benefit huge enterprises, some Big companies even let their fleets guest star a pirate to attack rival fleets.

Obviously, the navigator’s fleet is such a multi-functional fleet. When their commercial mission is completed, it will be transformed into another functional fleet, such as the exploration fleet.

In the pioneering history of the Earth Federation, the Noyers star is also a very famous and special planet. For example, the first contact with the alien civilization in the official sense of the Earth Federation is on this planet. The first A civilization treaty signed with an extraterrestrial civilization is also on this planet, and for a long time this planet has also been the initial release star of the Earth's Commonwealth Development Fleet.

Although the navigator’s diary did not specify the specific circumstances, from the content of the subsequent diary, the function of their fleet was changed because of an unexpected incident, which caused them to have to suspend their ongoing commercial tasks. , Transforming the entire fleet into an exploration fleet, and launching exploration missions towards the unknown universe of the universe.

And from a few words, it can be seen that at that time, the fleet that changed missions due to emergencies was more than this one. Almost all the fleets that were resting at Noyers Star at that time changed the nature of the fleet and moved deep into the universe. Advance.

Although the content of the incident in the diary is as little as one sentence, and it is still a lame verse, Leo still found clues from this verse and found out the details of the incident against the history of federal development .

The verse in the navigator’s diary is a vase filled with flowers suddenly blooming in the dark night. Although this poem is very garbage in poetry, the description of the phenomenon is in place, because this incident is called the vase event .

The cause of the incident was a number of cosmic telescopes in Noyers. It was observed that the space in the universe, about five light years away from the Noyers star, suddenly burst into an energy cluster. The shape of the energy cluster is like a vase filled with flowers.

It’s just a weird energy pattern. After all, the universe has various forms of energy, but while observing this group of psionic energy, Noyers’ scientists also captured an energy wave signal. This energy wave signal It is an energy wave signal used by the Earth Federation in the early development of spacecraft. The only meaning of this energy wave signal is the discovery of a colonizable planet.

Because the early technology of the Earth Federation is not developed, this energy wave signal device is very large and can only be used once, so this energy wave signal will only be activated if the planet can be colonized.

At that time, the people on the Noyes planet did not study why there were early energy wave signals. They paid more attention to the position of the energy wave signal, because that position is a blank area from the star map of the Earth Federation.

According to the provisions of the Earth Federation’s Trailblazer Act, before the Earth Federation Fleet enters the colonial planet, the Trailblazers are effective in exploiting any resources on the planet, and are inherited and belong to the scope of private property.

So when the relevant news spread, all the spacecraft on the Noyers planet capable of flying across space have turned into pioneer spacecrafts, heading towards the new colonial planet, although from the energy wave signal, they obviously have It is impossible to be the first discoverer, but it is also good to have some soup after the first discoverer, after all, it still contains huge benefits.

After the Noyes Planet Administration Center relayed the relevant information back to the Earth Federation, the Earth Federation decided to send a fleet to that colonial planet after discussion. It was only this one time, and the time spent discussing and forming the fleet, etc., has passed five years. By the time, when the pioneer spacecraft of the Federal Fleet reached Noyers, the energy wave signal had also disappeared.

Afterwards, the Federal Fleet went to the star field where the signal source was located according to the coordinates and orientation recorded by the Noyes star scientists. As a result, it was found that there was nothing in that star field~www.readwn.com~ The whole piece is equivalent to the solar system five A star field of ten times the size has nothing, let alone colonize the planet, not even a meteorite or cosmic dust, and according to the data measured by various means, it is found that the energy activity of this star field is infinitely close to zero .

And the pioneering spacecraft that came to this star field five years earlier than the Federal Fleet also disappeared. Until Leo’s time period, this matter is still the biggest mystery in the history of the earth’s federal development.

Scientists of the Earth Federation have made countless explanations for this, and it is ultimately believed that the most likely close to the answer is that the vase-shaped energy pattern started with two omega-class higher living bodies in battle, and those fleets that advanced to the star field were Involved in the war of higher living bodies, and everything in that star field was destroyed together, so that weird state of dead energy would appear in that star field.

As for why those pioneering fleets did not evade the battle of higher living bodies, they took the initiative to move up, because the Earth Federation at the time knew very much about the psionicists, and they all called the psionicists as new humans or superpowers. I don't know the existence of higher living body of omega level.

However, this speculation was later denied because someone through some relationship entrusted the people of higher civilization in the Supreme Council of the Universe to investigate the past engagement data of omega-class higher living bodies and found that there has never been an omega-level higher living body. Fighted so close to the new universe civilization of the Earth Federation.

The distance of five light years exists like the heavens for some civilizations, but for Omega-class higher living beings, it is only a few steps away. At such a short distance, two higher living creatures fighting, it will definitely be The destruction of the earth's civilization has had a devastating effect, so the investigation of the vase incident has never had an answer, and now this answer is in Leo's eyes.
