"Because the consciousness of life is not material in the strict sense."
The trading floor executive continued to explain: "When the consciousness enters the cosmic string, it will not be affected by any negative effects..."
In other words, it is completely unnecessary to worry about how the conscious body can navigate the cosmic strings.
After the conscious body is separated from the material body, it can directly enter the cosmic string.
So far, cosmic strings have been discovered, and only consciousness exists in the form of a body that can directly exist within the cosmic strings without being negatively affected.
However, this so-called immunity from negative impacts is not absolute.
Although the conscious body will not feel any discomfort in the cosmic string, the conscious body is still involuntarily placed in that extremely high flow environment.
You can sail within the cosmic strings, but you can't stop whenever you want.
If the consciousness in the cosmic string can continue to maintain the same state as in the normal environment, it must rely on the "highway" in the cosmic string.
The highway built by the Star Alliance has countless entrances and exits.
Moreover, entrances and exits like this can be easily expanded on the basis of the original expressway.
It is precisely because of these countless entrances and exits that can be expanded at any time that Kuntai Civilization dares to boast that it can help any civilization reach any corner of the universe in a short time.
After all, the highway is completely aligned with the entire cosmic string.
So, theoretically, wherever there are cosmic strings, highways can lead there.
This is the convenience brought by using cosmic strings to build cosmic highways, which can not only be used to transport materials, but also be used for consciousness navigation.
After various alliances and advanced civilizations have learned how to use cosmic strings and built their own highways, they rarely use curvature technology to travel faster than light.
It seems that, in their view, curvature technology is already an obsolete technology.
After all, the curvature engine extended by the curvature technology will have a huge impact on the universe every time it travels at ultra-high speed of light.
This effect is almost irreversible, and it will not be eliminated until the zeroing cycle ends and the universe is restarted again.
Speaking of this, the trading floor executive began to remind Zhang Heng out of goodwill: "Dear enlightener Wen Wenming, although I don't really want to meddle in other people's business, as a friend, I still feel it is necessary to remind you. One sentence."
"Like when you came to our trading market before and used the curvature technology of more than a hundred times to sail unscrupulously, please try to use it as little as possible in the future!"
"Because some civilizations will not tolerate your behavior and will think that you are deliberately destroying the cosmic environment..."
These civilizations who can't stand the use of curvature technology by other civilizations are of course also the type of civilization that has learned to use cosmic strings and built their own highways.
When they no longer need curvature, a technology that would leave sequelae in the universe, they transformed into the "environmental protection girls" of the universe.
They criticize any civilization that continues to use curvature technology, believing that those civilizations' use of curvature technology is not environmentally friendly.
The more extreme ones will even attack civilizations that use curvature technology, euphemistically claiming to eliminate pests for the environment of the universe.
But I never thought that their behavior was no different from eating minced meat.
"Thank you for your reminder."
Hearing this, Zhang Heng's expression only changed slightly.
I'm not particularly surprised as to how such a nosy civilization could exist.
After all, life in the universe is full of weird things, and thinking is also full of weird things. It won’t be surprising if there are any kind of weird things.
But, he might really have to be more careful in the future.
Otherwise, if you encounter this kind of lunatic civilization, you will have no choice but to consider yourself unlucky.
As for confronting them head-on, Zhang Heng couldn't do it.
He will not fight a war without profit.
Also, he is not very familiar with the application of cosmic strings yet, and he does not have the ability to build a highway of his own.
In fact, what he lacks most is the accumulation of time.
The current alliances and civilizations that can maturely apply cosmic strings have all achieved today's achievements after at least tens of billions of years of accumulation.
And he had just obtained the cosmic string theory not long ago, and it took a lot of time to complete the preliminary preparations for applying it in the metaverse.
What's more, is it outside the Metaverse, in a universe that is vaster than the Metaverse?
Therefore, he will have to continue to rely on curvature technology and the space anchor points he left for navigation for a long time in the future.
…
While Zhang Heng was talking to the trading market executive, the relocation of the trading market was coming to an end.
Fully automatic is awesome. No matter what is in the entire trading market, everything is classified into its essence, and it is quickly sucked in by the powerful gravity of the cosmic string.
Until, the entire trading market becomes no different from the outside world.
As Zhang Heng thought before, Kuntai civilization did not leave behind even a particle of dust or a particle of photon.
"Okay, dear enlightened civilization, it's our material body's turn next."
At this time, the trading floor executive spoke to Zhang Heng again.
"okay."
Zhang Heng didn't hesitate at all. His conscious body separated from his body and allowed his body to be broken down into atoms, and the atomic nuclei were broken down into protons and neutrons.
After the conscious body separated from the material body, Zhang Heng's conscious body could also clearly perceive that the conscious body of the high-ranking person in the trading field was next to him.
The next thing Zhang Heng had to do was to follow the consciousness of the trading market executive and enter the highway built on cosmic strings.
Otherwise, Zhang Heng would not have the authority to enter on his own.
The Cosmic String Highway seems to be like the consciousness upload server he built himself. Only those with administrative rights can bring other consciousnesses in.
Later, when Zhang Heng followed the trading floor executive into the cosmic string highway, his conscious body immediately felt a sense of weightlessness.
How can a conscious body, which is not strictly a material existence, feel weightless on the cosmic string highway?
One can imagine how fast the flow in the cosmic string is at this moment!
Apart from this, Zhang Heng's conscious body no longer felt any discomfort.
In terms of perception, it is still the same as in the non-material universe outside, surrounded by nothingness.
To be honest, he hated this feeling.
As for the emptiness of the non-material universe outside, he can barely tolerate living in it.
It's a bit unbearable to be weightless while suffering the torture of nothingness and death!
However, if you don't get used to it, you won't get used to it. Now that he has come in, he has to accompany Kuntai Civilization until he reaches his destination.
In the cosmic string highway, consciousness can no longer communicate through information.
Therefore, naturally there is no way to ask Kuntai Civilization how long it will take to reach the destination.
I don’t know how much time passed before the feeling of weightlessness suddenly disappeared.
"Are we here?"
Feeling that his consciousness had returned to normal, and it didn't seem like he was still behind the cosmic string highway, Zhang Heng wondered in his heart.
However, why can't we sense the existence of the consciousness of the trading market executive and other people in Kuntai Civilization?
This time, Zhang Heng became even more confused.
Could it be that my consciousness has gone astray?
Just when Zhang Heng was falling into self-doubt, the consciousness of the trading market executive reappeared within his range of perception.
"Enlightener, at this moment, I have a very unfortunate news to tell you..."
The senior management of the trading place who reappeared, and the wording of the message to Zhang Heng was no longer as polite as before.
Instead, with a very anxious tone, the brief message content said: "Our civilization was ambushed in the cosmic string, the transportation thoroughfares were destroyed, the consciousness bodies of countless civilization elites were killed instantly, and countless materials were robbed by the opponent... …”
"We have no choice but to temporarily expand an entrance and exit to send you away from the cosmic string temporarily."
"Please forgive me that we can no longer guarantee your safety. I have to go back and live and die with civilization..."
After saying this, the consciousness of the trading market executive disappeared from Zhang Heng's range of perception.
At the same time, Zhang Heng's material body was also sent out.
After leaving the gravitational range of the cosmic string, this material body returned to Zhang Heng's original appearance.
After Zhang Heng read the message, he finally understood that before Qingqing, the universe string seemed peaceful, but it turned out to be dangerous?
Before he knew it, the Kuntai civilization was already fighting fiercely with the hostile civilization!
"Kuntai civilization encountered an ambush on its own cosmic string highway, and the losses seemed to be very heavy..."
"Is the so-called cosmic turmoil not just as simple as the beginning, but has it reached such a degree of corruption?"
This was the first time Zhang Heng experienced this form of war, and he did not blame himself for being thrown out by Kuntai Civilization.
After all, they did this as a last resort to prevent him from getting involved in this war.
Instead, we began to analyze which civilization or alliance was taking action against the Kuntai Civilization.
The Cosmic String Highway Ambusher that can be built in the Star Alliance seems to be only available to beings of the same level or higher in the Star Alliance.
Zhang Heng first thought of the Star Destroyer Alliance.
According to what Nirag said before, the Star Destroyer Alliance has always been the sworn enemy of the Star Destroyer Alliance and will never stop fighting.
In times of relative peace in the past, there would be constant friction between the two alliances.
The subordinate civilizations under his command were all fighting each other.
It seems that it has now reached the point of all-out war!
Otherwise, we would not be so crazy that we are waging war in the cosmic strings at this moment.
After thinking about it, Zhang Heng could only secretly say bad luck, and his plan was disrupted again.
The Kuntai civilization that is still fighting in the cosmic string, although it is not yet known whether it is the opponent of the hostile civilization that ambushed them.
But in Zhang Heng's opinion, if there were no accidents, the trading floor executive would probably have to coexist and die with his own civilization.
After all, since the other party dares to set up an ambush on the Star Alliance's cosmic string highway, the strength of the civilization must be far superior to that of the Kuntai civilization.
Moreover, even if he wants to meddle in others' affairs, he must help Kuntai Civilize so that his plan remains unchanged.
But the matter has come to this, Kuntai Civilization has sent him out, and he has no way to go in again.
The hostile forces of the Star Alliance can break through the highway defenses of the Star Alliance, but he does not have that ability.
Furthermore, he may not necessarily be the opponent who ambush the civilization.
For the sake of safety, and to live up to Kuntai Civilization's good intention of sending his guest out first.
So, Zhang Heng decided to run away quickly...
Then, he will have no choice but to return or look for another trading venue under the name of the Star Alliance.
However, just when he wanted to leave through the spatial anchor point, the opposite happened again.
The disappeared entrance to the cosmic string opened wide again. This time, the person coming out of the cosmic string was no longer the senior executive of the trading place or a member of the Kuntai civilization.
Instead, there is a high probability that it may be the civilization that set up the ambush.
It seems that they have solved the Kuntai civilization, and realized that before the destruction of the Kuntai civilization, they had opened the entrance and exit of the cosmic string. They suspected that the Kuntai civilization might want to give away something important.
Therefore, after they solved the Kuntai civilization, they pursued it without hesitation.
On the other side, when he realized that he was also being targeted by the opponent, Zhang Heng did not hesitate to choose to take advantage of the opponent before he could gain a foothold and start to strike first.
Zhang Heng had no mercy against such an enemy whose strength was unknown.
It was used right away, a dimensionality reduction strike weapon that was even more advanced than the two-way foil.
When you are threatened, whether dimensionality reduction weapons will have an impact on the universe is secondary.
If necessary, he can use take-off and down-dimensional weapons, and his decisiveness will be no worse than that of any other old man, and he may even be even crazier!
It doesn’t matter if the universe will be destroyed or not, it’s true as long as I’m not destroyed first.
As for the civilization that was chasing them, not all of them were chased out, only some combat-type individuals chased them out using their ideology.
However, after feeling that the dimensions of the surrounding space were rapidly falling to two dimensions, and even falling below one dimension, I was confused!
They didn't seem to expect that Kuntai Civilization would send away such a ruthless person in advance.
They are actually only level four civilizations. They can ambush the Kuntai civilization in the universe not because they are much stronger than the Kuntai civilization.
Instead, they received help in advance from the alliance behind them.
With the help of an alliance, it is very simple for a fourth-level civilization to destroy another fourth-level civilization.
However, the dimensional technology that can be reduced to several dimensions at once is a technology that only civilizations above level five can possess.
Moreover, ordinary fifth-level civilizations are still unable to come up with this kind of technology that can reduce several dimensions at once.
At most, you can only use cheap dimensionality reduction weapons like two-way foil to reduce one dimension at a time.
Those who can drop several dimensions at once must have developed at least several universe zero cycles and are infinitely close to the sixth level of civilization. Only then can they possess such dimensional technology.
With such severe dimensionality reduction, even if the civilization that pursues it has the technology to transform itself in a short period of time.
It is also impossible to quickly transform yourself into a two-dimensional creature, then quickly transform into a one-dimensional creature, and finally into a zero-dimensional creature.
Therefore, they have no solution at all when faced with such a blow!
