530: Niu Ruren's technology, the source of signals from other civilizations

Converging lasers, capable of combining multiple beams into one to launch a fatal strike on a target—this is spatio-temporal synchronized lens array technology… Converging particles and rays to form a shield on the ship's surface, capable of withstanding impacts equivalent to hundreds of billions of tons of TNT—this is energy field generation technology… The main material for the spaceship's hull, incredibly hard, ensuring the ship remains unscathed from meteorite and dust impacts—this is Hawk-Hill nano-alloy technology… When the spaceship is damaged, it can self-repair using biomimetic self-repairing structural technology… Utilizing high-energy lasers launched from the ground for propulsion, allowing the spaceship to achieve super-high-speed travel—this is light sail matrix technology… At Yang Dian's request, Arthur unreservedly showed him the Niu Ru Ren spaceship's various high-tech weapons and equipment.

After touring the spaceship, it was exactly three hours since Arthur awoke.

As beeping sounds filled the spaceship, one hibernation pod after another opened from a light white mist, and the Niu Ru Ren spaceship gradually became lively.

The Combat Command's Weapon Control Group, Shield Defense Group, Radar Warning Group; the Navigation Center's Hyperspace Computing Group, Deep Space Detection Group; the Engineering Department's Power Engineering Group, Hull Maintenance Group.

There were also the Medical Department, Logistics Department, Special Operations Department… Tens of thousands of Niu Ru Ren elites emerged from their hibernation pods, and like Arthur, they each took a cup of dark green beverage from the self-service dispenser. After drinking their fill, they began to perform their duties like precise gear parts, operating the spaceship.

Watching the maintenance crew and the spaceship Commander casually slinging their arms over each other's shoulders, Yang Dian couldn't help but exclaim:

“Your civilization…”

A hint of confusion appeared in Arthur's eyes:

“What about our civilization?”

In his, or rather, in the concept of all Niu Ru Ren, it was perfectly normal for a Commander to sling his arm over a maintenance crew's shoulder, or for a beggar to call a billionaire his brother.

They treated every life equally.

Including but not limited to their own species.

“Nothing.” Looking at Arthur's pure eyes, Yang Dian gradually dispelled the idea of scheming against the Niu Ru Ren.

Through abilities like malice perception and spiritual perception, Yang Dian could sense that the Niu Ru Ren's current behavior was not an act.

This was their everyday life.

Such a civilization was too pure.

Even on the infinite scale of the Universe, Yang Dian believed such a civilization was extremely rare.

So rare that even Yang Dian couldn't help but develop a good impression of them.

“Besides the Beast-Ear Tribe civilization, have you received messages from any other civilizations?”

Since he had given up on scheming against the Niu Ru Ren civilization, Yang Dian naturally had to recover his losses from other sources.

Through his conversation with Arthur just now, Yang Dian knew that the planet Arthur was from had not experienced a dimensional folding event, nor was there any mention of Qi Revival or life becoming extraordinary.

They were just an ordinary technological world.

Their ability to research and build spaceships was entirely due to the collective efforts of their entire species.

Besides that, he also mentioned things like inter-civilization communication.

So he guessed that the Niu Ru Ren might have contact with other civilizations.

Hearing Yang Dian's question, Arthur nodded to a fellow Niu Ru Ren who was passing by and showed curiosity towards Yang Dian, then looked at Yang Dian and said:

“Yes.”

“Besides the Beast-Ear Tribe, we have also captured communication signals from seven other civilizations and have established communication with them.”

“It's just that those seven civilizations are simply too far from us.”

“The closest are tens of light-years away, and the farthest reach thousands of light-years.”

“Although our spaceship's speed is not slow, reaching 3600 times the speed of sound in the Universe.”

“But for the scale of the Universe, it is still too slow.”

“To travel one light-year would take 28 years.”

“To travel to the location of a signal source by spaceship, even the closest one, would take several hundred years.”

“Too many accidents could occur during that time, so we haven't dispatched spaceships to approach them.”

At this point, he spoke somewhat happily again:

“Those civilizations, like us, are all peace-loving civilizations.”

“We have exchanged many high-end scientific theories with them via wireless signals.”

“Although their scientific theories and technological development are not as advanced as ours, their way of thinking has helped us open up different scientific branches, giving our scientific theories a broader Dao.”

Looking at the joyful Arthur, Yang Dian couldn't help but shake his head inwardly.

The Niu Ru Ren were too easily deceived.

Only they would believe alien nonsense.

He didn't believe those aliens would give top-tier scientific theories to the Niu Ru Ren civilization.

As his thoughts of emotion faded, he heard Arthur speak again:

“The reason we were able to reach the Star Domain where the Beast-Ear Tribe civilization is located and help them resist the invasion of evil gods is entirely because there is a natural wormhole at the northern corner of this Star Domain, and this wormhole connects to our Star Domain, saving us decades of travel time.”

He then scratched the back of his head:

“It's also strange, when we first built our Universe spaceship, we also piloted it to this area.”

“But at that time, we didn't discover the existence of this Star Domain.”

“This was just a vacuum of the Universe.”

Yang Dian looked up, somewhat surprised, and said:

“When you last came here, this was still an empty area?”

“Not just last time.” Arthur shook his head and said:

“After discovering the wormhole, we traveled back and forth across its two sides a total of 73 times.”

“But each time we returned empty-handed, finding nothing useful.”

“After receiving the distress signal from the Beast-Ear Tribe civilization and confirming the existence of a civilization at this location, our scientists proposed another hypothesis.”

“That is, life Star Domains have a self-protective instinct.”

“There might be a naturally formed protective magnetic field around the Star Domain.”

“Under the protection of this magnetic field, it is difficult for other civilizations to discover the existence of a life Star Domain.”

“Not long after this hypothesis was proposed, some scientists added another hypothesis to it.”

“That is, this protective magnetic field is not naturally occurring, but rather a protection actively given by an unknown, powerful civilization to weaker civilizations.”

“To ensure that a civilization does not suffer interference from external civilizations during its growth, allowing it to transition smoothly into a Universe-level civilization.”

“When a civilization grows to a certain extent, this protection will disappear.”

“This might also be why the Universe is so empty.”

After listening to Arthur's two hypotheses, Yang Dian couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Do these two hypotheses make sense?

Hard to say.

But no matter what.

The information about the other worlds Arthur mentioned was ultimately true.

Yang Dian really didn't believe that the other civilizations were all like the Niu Ru Ren civilization, having developed into a harmonious society and being peace-loving.

If they dared to deceive Arthur, to deceive the Niu Ru Ren?

Heh ~

Then it would be up to the Huaxia people to uphold justice.

For example… under the principle of equal exchange, acquiring high-end technology from other civilizations and sharing it with the Niu Ru Ren.

As for things like the Origin energy of life planets?

The Niu Ru Ren haven't developed extraordinary powers, they don't need them.

He could only reluctantly help them digest it…
