Chapter 242 Cemetery

The Rosetta system is a database developed for the teaching of the earth language in the three-body world.

The database contains about two million words of natural history of the earth, as well as written materials on human history, as well as a large number of dynamic images and pictures.

It is also equipped with a software that corresponds words to the corresponding meta-corresponding in images to facilitate the interpretation and learning of the earth's language.

The Federal Military Commission of Humanity approved the expedition team's request, but there was no Rosetta system on the research ship. At this time, the communication signals between the research ship and the mother ships were already very weak, and it was impossible to transmit large-capacity information.

Therefore, the mother ship can only send it directly to the "Lord of Ring". Fortunately, the spacecraft chasing the fleet is equipped with neutrino communication equipment, but I don't know whether the "Lord of Ring" can receive neutrino signals.

Three minutes after the Universal Gravity sent the Rosetta system with a neutrino signal, the research ship received a series of dot matrix diagrams from the "Lord of the Ring". The first one was a very neat 8×8 dot matrix, with a total of 64 dots.

There is one point missing in one corner of the dot matrix in the second picture, and sixty-three are left. There is a little less in the third picture, and sixty-two are left...

"This is a countdown, which is equivalent to a progress bar, which may indicate that the other party has received Rosetta and is interpreting it. Let us wait patiently for the waiter," West explained.

"But why is it sixty-four o'clock?" asked an officer.

"When using binary, a number that is not big or small, is about the same as a hundred in decimal."

Zhuo Wen and Guan Yifan were both very glad to bring West, and psychologists were indeed very talented in establishing communication with unknown intellectual bodies.

When the countdown reached fifty-seven, something exciting happened, that is, the next count was not represented by a dot matrix. The Arabic numerals of humans were clearly displayed on the pictures of "The Lord of the Rings"!

"Learn so quickly!" Guan Yifan exclaimed.

The number continues to decrease, decreasing by 1 every ten seconds, and after a few minutes, the number decreases to 0.

The latest pictures sent by the picture show four Chinese characters: [I am a cemetery.]

The Roseta system uses a Chinese-English fleet language, and the "Lord of Ring" must also use this kind of text, but this sentence happens to be in Chinese.

Guan Yifan entered a question into the communication window and began a conversation between humans and "The Lord of the Rings": "Whose cemetery?"

【Builder’s Cemetery.】

"Is this a spaceship?"

[Once a spaceship, it will be a cemetery after death.]

"Who are you? Who are you talking to us?"

[I am a cemetery, the cemetery is talking to you, I am dead.]

"Are you talking about the spacecraft itself whose crew has died, or the spacecraft's control system?"

(No answer)

“There are many objects in the nearby area, are they all cemeteries?”

[Most of them are cemeteries, and they will become cemeteries soon, and I don't know them.]

"Did you come from afar, or have you been here all the time?"

[I come from a distance, and they come from a distance too.]

"From a different distance? Where did you come from?"

【ocean.】

"Did you build this four-dimensional space?"

(No answer)

"Is this four piles of space similar to the ocean to you, or to your builders?"

【It's a puddle, the sea is dry.】

"Why are there so many spacecraft, or cemeteries gathered in such a small space?"

【When the sea is dried, the fish will gather in the puddle, the puddle is drying up, and the fish will disappear.】’

Are all the fish here?

【The fish that dried the sea is not there.】

"Sorry, this is very confusing."

[The dried fish from the sea went to land before the sea was dried and ran from a dark forest to another dark forest.]

The last two identical words in this sentence are like two thunderbolts, which makes the three people on the scientific research ship and the people on the distant ship who are listening through weak signals.

"What does the Dark Forest... mean?"

【That's what you mean.】

"Then will you attack us?"

[I am a cemetery, I am dead, no one will attack. There is no dark forest between different dimensions, and low-dimensional threatens no high-dimensionality. Low-dimensional resources are useless for high-dimensionality, but the same dimensions are all dark forests.]

“Can you give us some advice?”

[Get out of the puddle quickly, you are thin paintings, you are fragile. In the puddle, it will soon become a cemetery... Oh, there seem to be fish on your boat.]

Guan Yifan was stunned for several seconds before he realized that there were really fish on the scientific research ship. It was a small ecological ball he carried with him, slightly larger than his fist.

There was only one small fish and a few slices of seaweed inside the glass ball, but it was a carefully designed closed ecosystem.

This is Guan Yifan’s favorite thing. He took it with him before leaving. If he couldn’t go back this time, this thing would be used as his burial object.

【I like fish, can I give it to me?】

"How to give it?"

【Top.】

Because internal atmospheric generation technology prevents pressure loss, even if the cabin door of the scientific research ship is opened, the people inside do not need to wear spacesuits in the cabin.

Guan Yifan raised the ecological ball in front of him, carefully held the outer wall of the glass from the three-dimensional direction in the four dimensions, and finally took a look at the ecological ball.

From the four-dimensional perspective, the infinite details of the ecological ball are fully displayed, making this originally trivial world of life seem extremely rich and colorful.

Guan Yifan waved his arm and threw the ecological ball towards the "Lord of the Ring". He looked at the small transparent ball and disappeared into four-dimensional space.

Then they closed the hatch and continued to talk to the Lord of the Rings: "So is there only this puddle in the universe? How did these puddles appear?"

However, there was no answer, and after that, the Lord of the Rings was completely silent and he would not respond no matter how he contacted him.

At this time, a message came from the Human Federation that a star destroyer was attacked by micrometeorites, and various floating objects around the fleet also increased rapidly, and small four-dimensional objects appeared, suspected to be fragments of spacecraft or building.

Therefore, Chu Yan ordered them to return immediately and the plan to board the "Lord of the Ring" was cancelled.

Because of the distance mastered, the speed of the scientific research ship more than doubled when returning. It took only more than two hours to return to the nearest mothership, and successfully found the warping point and returned to a ship of the Human Federation.

"Dr. Guan, what are you doing with the last question you asked to the Lord of the Ring?" Chu Yan asked with interest.

"It's more intuitive to use our metaphor. A small soap bubble with a diameter of only a few dozen astronomical units is stuck on a large piece of paper with a diameter of 16 billion light-years."

"We just crawled into the bubble. The probability is so small that it is negligible. It is certain that other soap bubbles are stuck on the paper, and there may be many."
