Chapter 588 A Brief History of Civilization
At this time, Jiang Yao couldn't help but feel a shocking feeling in his heart when he listened to the information Brainworm told him.
Indeed, the information on the tombstone is too incredible.
Of course, for him, this thing is called a tombstone, but Jiang Yao is still willing to respect them and call this thing a holy monument.
This is the belief of many civilizations in this world.
It is a portrayal of their unwillingness to resist in prison.
"Brainworm, give me the details of the translation."
At this time, after thinking about this, Jiang Yao said to the brain worm.
Jiang Yao really wanted to understand this civilization, just like reading a story. After knowing the first chapter, he eagerly wanted to know the rest of the content.
After getting the information in this way, Jiang Yao began to understand it carefully, and when he began to understand it, he was deeply shocked by the world of bubble tea.
There is no specific time in this document.
Because there is no accurate record of time in this universe, how many years did it take for a new civilization to evolve after the demise of a civilization, and how many generations did it take for the new civilization to develop into a star navigation civilization.
No one knows about this.
But each of the above civilizations records the status of their own civilization.
Among these civilizations, the one that impressed Jiang Yao the most was Civilization No. 1, which was also the pioneer of all civilizations.
At the same time, they named themselves this way because, for them, such sequential records are the easiest to organize, and the information they left behind is simple and straightforward information.
The main reason why they did this was so that subsequent civilizations could sort out the data as quickly as possible.
Compared to other civilizations, Civilization No. 1 may not have left the most technology, but they are the pioneers who paved the way for all civilizations.
Civilization number one.
"Born in the 131st year of the star calendar, they entered the information age after a long period of 4100 years, and then they entered the star navigation age, and then in 4300 they discovered the mystery of the universe."
"They found themselves inseparable from this galaxy. Of course, they didn't care much about this discovery at first."
"Because you have never seen a wider sky, you will take it for granted that the sky you see is the whole world. This is the frog in the well."
Of course, this idea changed in 4310 due to the emergence of a genius.
"Perhaps the world we live in and the world we see is not the whole world. What is hidden in the chaos outside the star system? Are there other new worlds outside the chaos?"
When Jiang Yao read this, he also felt a little numb, because he knew very well that this statement would cause shock to the entire civilization.
Pretty much what he was thinking.
When this theory was put forward, the civilization was indeed shaken greatly at the time.
Of course, it is very normal for such a situation to occur
After all, sometimes the truth is very simple, so simple that as soon as you say it, others will suddenly understand. How could it be so simple? Why didn't I think of it before.
In this way, because of the appearance of this guide, there was a wave of exploration in civilization.
What these people have to do is go to the chaos of nothingness.
As more and more people had such thoughts, many people took action, but soon they discovered the situation.
Because no matter what method they use, they can't break through that layer of restrictions.
"Caged bird." These four words appeared in Jiang Yao's mind when he saw this.
Civilization No. 1 at that time also discovered this.
Among them, they also despaired when they found that no matter what they did, they could not break through the restrictions. Many of them even felt that there might be a more advanced civilization outside of chaos, and they were raised captive by that civilization.
Of course, given the circumstances here, there is nothing wrong with this set of remarks.
But as the saying goes, where there is oppression, there is resistance. It is also for this reason that many people in civilization decided to rise up and resist and break this cage.
As a result, during that period of time, many people who were unwilling to accept their fate stood up. They worked together to develop various equipment, with the purpose of breaking the cage.
And that period is called a period of great development of civilization.
During this period of civilization, various capable and righteous people appeared frequently.
And they had only one purpose, which was to break out of the prison, and the level of technological development also skyrocketed, and this lasted for about three hundred years.
This is the golden three hundred years of a young civilization.
There has been more technological progress in these three hundred years than in the previous several thousand years combined.
But after the period of great development passed, the remaining civilization entered a stage of depression.
Because the crazy development in these years has made everyone see the fact clearly.
That is, no matter how hard they try, they cannot break through this limit.
This is unacceptable to them.
At the same time, they discovered that the total amount of resources in this world is limited.
And these resources cannot support them to go further.
This plunged everyone into despair.
As the saying goes, misfortunes never come singly, and just when civilization was at its lowest ebb, another thing happened.
That's when they discovered something seemed to be wrong with the star.
With the science and technology they had at the time, they were naturally able to discover problems with stars, and through their simulation demonstrations, they discovered that this time a problem with stars would most likely lead to the demise of their civilization.
Of course, with such science and technology, they did not intend to sit still and wait for death. They decided to use all their resources based on their current actual situation to ward off this crisis.
Then the Barrier Project was born.
They decided to find something similar to an ark behind a planet at the edge of the galaxy and let everyone move there to survive this crisis.
Of course, everyone in the civilization is very supportive of this matter. After all, this is related to their lives, so they joined forces with these people to start building barriers.
Five hundred years have passed.
In these years, many talented and beautiful people were born in the civilization, and they all joined the Barrier Project without hesitation. Everything was developing in a good direction, until one day the birth of a scientist broke the peace.
Combining the information he had with the information that civilization had mastered for many years, this scientist deduced a very terrifying fact, that is, no matter how they resisted, it was just a struggle before death.
And when he told this piece of information to the people above, his fate was naturally self-evident, but because he was a rare talent, he survived.
And after he left prison, he also understood something during his years in prison. Sometimes the truth is not necessarily the goal that everyone pursues.
Even if they are ignorant, even if what they do has no effect, at least during the period of doing it, these people live meaningfully.
His actions are tantamount to destroying their hope.
After seeing through this, he hid his thoughts and joined the cause. However, he did not give up his thoughts. He also did what he thought was right in his own way.
It was also because of this idea that in the following time, he was worried about work while at the same time thinking about the whereabouts of civilization.
Finally, after many years of research, he was basically certain that there was nothing wrong with his original idea, and that civilization would not be able to survive this disaster.
That period was the lowest point in his life.
But soon he found his goal again. Since the negative effects of civilization are unavoidable, he always wants to leave something to civilization.
Even traces of civilization are enough. At least if a new civilization is born here one day in the future, they will know that there once was a civilization with highly developed science and technology in this world.
It is not easy to create something that leaves traces of civilization under such a power that can destroy everything.
Fortunately, he discovered a way to make a special metal, and the strength of this special metal exceeded his knowledge. At the same time, he also discovered that if these metals were used, There is no certainty that civilization will be able to survive this disaster.
As the saying goes, if you arrange flowers with intention, they will not bloom, but if you do not intend to arrange willows, they will create shade. This is the truth.
But his hope soon turned into despair, because the raw material of this metal is very small in the entire universe, so small that it is incredible.
To build a fortress that can withstand damage and allow the entire civilization to live in it requires a huge amount of materials, and the materials it finds may not even be enough.
It was also because of this reason that he chose to record civilization.
Ever since, a plan quietly emerged.
In this way, as time went by, he recorded too many things on the holy monument, including the origin of civilization, many technologies, the synthesis method of this material, and of course the most important dream.
And his dream is to know what the world outside this universe is like.
The last entry in his record read.
I don't know what the outside universe will look like in the future, but I hope that one day when you really set foot in that area, I hope you can record the outside world and put it here.
At this point, Civilization No. 1 has come to an end.
Just like this, spring passed and autumn came, and I don’t know how many years passed. Civilization No. 2 appeared.
Although they were ranked second in number, I don’t know how many civilizations they have experienced during this period before No. 2 reached the current level.
Just like the original situation, No. 2 soon discovered that the world was different, but compared to the confused No. 1, they found what the great scientist left behind, and through the technology left by that scientist, they Technology is advancing by leaps and bounds.
At the same time, they also learned about the situation of this universe and the vision of Civilization No. 1.
Of course, at the beginning, like Civilization No. 1, they were making active choices to prepare for their future. At the same time, their initial focus was on leaving here.
In this way, as time went by, until the situation was as constant as in the records, after another problem occurred, Civilization No. 2 also realized the seriousness of the death problem.
Of course, no one would choose to sit still and wait for death. After sorting out the information left by Civilization No. 1, they also understood the situation of the disaster, so they prepared in advance with them. However, it was similar to the situation recorded by Civilization No. 1. They simply did not have the ability. Withstand this disaster.
Fortunately, with the lessons learned from Civilization No. 1, Document No. 2 began to prepare for Civilization’s funeral very early.
They also learned from Civilization No. 1 and recorded everything about their own civilization.
At the same time, they have the same ideas as Civilization No. 1.
They also want to see the world outside this universe.
However, compared to Civilization No. 1, they recorded more and more detailed content, and they found many problems when deciphering Civilization No. 1, so they also recorded how their words were expressed, so that If so, if one day in the future, other civilizations reach this height.
Then this civilization can sort out the legacies of the two civilizations and become stronger, and maybe it will be possible to leave here.
In this way, Civilization No. 2 also came to an end. Compared with Civilization No. 1, Civilization No. 2 brought greater significance to subsequent civilizations.
Because they were the first civilization to come up with detailed records.
It is also because of their suggestions that many civilizations in the future will progress faster.
In this way, a year has passed, and several generations have known that the turning point has appeared, and this turning point is Civilization No. 5.
This civilization, after combining the currently known information, determined a concept called great destruction.
At the same time, they also have a very deep understanding of the era of great destruction. They found that the time of each round of the era of great destruction is fixed.
The interval between the last era of great destruction and the arrival of the next era of great destruction is 60 million years.
Although this time is very exaggerated for individuals, it is very small for civilization. It is not an exaggeration to even say that it is pitiful.
From the most basic single-cell organisms to the later multi-cells, the evolution of organisms followed the emergence of animals and plants and finally, the emergence of intelligent organisms.
From primitive to tribal and then to civilization, the entire cycle repeats itself over and over again. 60 million years is too short.
Far fewer civilizations have already ushered in destruction before they even began to form.
Only a very small number of people are lucky enough to go to civilization, and an even smaller number of people are lucky enough to go to the universe and understand the truth of the world.
This concept of an era of great destruction also brought help to many subsequent civilizations, and it also brought disasters.
Civilization No. 20 is one of the disasters.
This civilization became desperate after learning the truth about the world, because there were 20 generations of civilizations in front of them that could not escape the fate of destruction.
At the same time, in order to record their own things, these 20 generations of civilizations also searched for materials in the universe to expand this huge cosmic tombstone. By this generation of universe, the tombstone has already reached a certain size.
Although he cannot protect everyone, he can protect some people. It is also for this reason that a group of people in civilization have ideas.
They want to build the tombstone into a small ecological circle, and then hide inside to survive the catastrophe.
