When the spaceship a few people were on slowly sailed into this level three environment, other civilizations did not respond much to their arrival.
Obviously, the civilizations that came here in advance have become accustomed to it and will no longer make a fuss about other civilizations coming here.
After all, there is only such a small place left in the three-dimensional universe. Except for those civilizations that can transform themselves into lower-latitude creatures, all the remaining civilizations with some strength will definitely crowd in here.
Based on the huge number of civilizations in the universe, even if one in 10,000 can come here, it can almost be said that new civilizations will join every three to five.
The general layout of the current third-level environment is basically like this; the area where each civilization is located is at least one astronomical unit away from the area where another civilization is located.
This is also a relatively safe distance. After all, even if one civilization suddenly wants to attack another civilization, which is one astronomical unit away, even a light-speed strike weapon will have to fly for more than eight minutes to reach an astronomical unit. outside.
And with this eight-minute reaction time, the other civilization would not be caught off guard.
What is left is the living area of each civilization; some of them stay in their own spaceships, while others build asteroids.
Comparing the two, the crowding on the spacecraft and the open space and comfort of the asteroid, of course the latter is better.
However, those civilizations that created asteroids brought in their own mass.
After all, in this area that is only less than a hundred light years in diameter, there is not that much mass for them to consume.
In this area of a hundred light years in diameter, the number of existing celestial bodies and stars is less than ten, and the total number of planets and satellites near the planets is only a few hundred.
Of course, these places where celestial bodies exist are all occupied by civilizations with relatively strong technological capabilities.
In fact, even if the once-bad Three-Body Galaxy is placed here, it will cause all civilizations to break their heads and fight for it.
After all, the universe has developed to its current situation, and no matter how harsh the environment on these celestial bodies was originally, it can now be regarded as a sweet potato for all civilizations.
You have to be strong to get it.
After several people witnessed this situation, of course they were still worried, and naturally they would not set their sights on a planet in a certain star.
Instead, like most civilizations, they chose to carve out their own area to live in a corner where no other civilization had settled.
"Will human civilization and Trisolaran civilization be here too?"
After the spacecraft flew to an area less than two astronomical units away from the nearest civilization, Cheng Xin spoke again.
Previous broadcasts included Trisolaran language and human language, so whether it is Trisolaran civilization or human civilization, it must still exist.
So, is it possible that they have also come to this level three environment?
"Human beings are expected to be here, but the Trisolaran civilization is not necessarily there."
Guan Yifan analyzed: "The situation between human beings and the Trisolaran civilization is different. The Trisolaran civilization has hundreds of small universes. Human beings did not have the ability to build small universes when we returned to Blue Star."
"So, if humans have never been able to build their own small universe, they can only survive in the current situation in a level three environment."
"As for the Trisolaran civilization, they may not necessarily return all the mass of their small universe like us. They are likely to still stay in their own small universe."
"Well said."
After Guan Yifan finished his analysis, Sophon also nodded: "There are so many small universes in Trisolaris, and each one is much larger than the small universe No. 647, and the return of mass will not be as easy as ours. Yes It will take a very long time to complete.”
"Then shall we look for them?"
Cheng Xin asked again.
They are looking for, of course, human civilization that may also be here.
After all, humans have always been a creature that likes to hug together for warmth. Whether in the primitive era or in the interstellar age, hugging together for warmth always makes people feel safer.
"I'm afraid it's a little difficult!"
Sophon shook his head: "There are too many civilizations here and they are too dense. From the time we arrived here, apart from our spaceships swimming around looking for a foothold, there were basically no spaceships from other civilizations swimming around. move."
"It can be seen that even if there is an invisible force maintaining order here, it should not be absolutely without friction."
"So, their best option is to keep themselves silent and try to avoid touching the sensitive nerves of other civilizations..."
In other words, if they want to find humans, they may run into trouble.
Although the diameter of a hundred light years is not large, this situation is unfeasible at the moment.
And if they want to find humans, they have only two options to choose from.
Either shout loudly in this area with a diameter of less than a hundred light years, or drive a spacecraft to the gates of other civilizations one by one.
No matter which of the above choices is made, it will arouse the sensitive nerves of other civilizations.
Moreover, once a civilization thinks they are picking, war can break out in an instant.
Therefore, Tomoko's suggestion is to keep a low profile.
Furthermore, in this environment, what if they can find a large army of human civilization?
What is the difference between a few ants and a group of ants in the eyes of some powerful civilizations in this area?
Once someone wants to destroy you, you must die.
Cheng Xin wanted to find a group with human civilization. Apart from giving herself some psychological comfort, there was no real benefit at all.
"Besides, humans may be there, but it's just a speculation without any evidence at the moment."
Tomoko continued: "Although this Level 3 environment is the best remaining three-dimensional cosmic environment I have found in the Milky Way, it is still possible for humans to escape into a Level 2 environment, or to a harsh environment below Level 2. Among them..."
After all, fish that sense that the sea is starting to dry up will not choose their way out when they are running for their lives in a hurry. They must swim wherever there is water first.
How can they have free time to slowly choose and find a better environment like they have a small universe?
"I suddenly regret coming out so soon, what about you?"
Knowing what Tomoko said was very reasonable, Guan Yifan smiled bitterly.
It seems that his dream of traveling in a large universe with a diameter of 16 billion light years can no longer be realized.
On the contrary, things always develop in a direction contrary to his wishes.
I abandoned the basketball star that is more than 10,000 kilometers away, and also abandoned the small universe that is 1,000 kilometers away, but now I can only carry it in a small spaceship...
It’s so fucked up!
"You will have to face this day sooner or later!"
Cheng Xin said nothing, but Liang Bing said.
In fact, when Cheng Xin asked whether she wanted to look for humans just now, she also had this idea in mind.
After all, if the remaining humans are also in this level three environment, will Zhang Heng be there too?
Logically speaking, it is. After all, the Milky Way in the current three-dimensional universe has either fallen to a lower dimension or has been covered by the black zone. The only place where three-dimensional creatures can survive normally is in the remaining environments of various levels.
And among the remaining environments of each level in the galaxy, this third-level environment is uniquely the best.
According to Zhang Heng's urine, he shouldn't run to a worse place. After all, the worse the environment, the more dangerous it is.
That's why she felt that Zhang Heng was most likely to be in this level three environment.
Unless, Zhang Heng is no longer in the galaxy.
Unfortunately, she didn't know that at this time, Zhang Heng was not only not in the Milky Way, he was not even in the three-dimensional universe. He had already transformed himself into a two-dimensional creature.
"We've received another transmembrane message."
While several people were talking, after the spacecraft also parked, Tomoko suddenly said: "The form is similar to the previous super-membrane broadcast, but this time it seems to be sent specifically to us."
"Is something big happening in the universe again?"
"Is it from the person who established the order in the third-level environment?"
"What's the content?"
Cheng Xin, Liang Bing, and Guan Yifan each asked in one sentence.
"You'd better read it yourself."
Then, Tomoko brought up another terminal window and started playing information films for several people.
This time, a few people were able to understand it directly, because the language used by the information film was human language.
However, although it is a human language, there are still many kinds.
Except for Chinese, the rest are basically languages that are still used by human civilization into the interstellar era.
Naturally, these languages are not dialects, or they are unpopular language families in human history. They are mainly the languages of major countries in the past.
It can be seen that the owner of the membrane that sent this message not only knows what kind of civilization human beings are, but also knows the history and culture of human beings in detail.
The information content is also roughly as follows;
Please limit your activities to within two astronomical units until the day of restart comes, otherwise you will be responsible for all the consequences, and you will also lose the qualification to go to the new universe!
"This appears to be a warning statement."
After reading it, Cheng Xin frowned and said, "A warning statement for our newly arrived civilization."
"It seems so."
Guan Yifan also said: "Looking at it now, it's no wonder that the civilizations within this hundred light-year range are so honest."
"Just because they will lose the qualification to go to the new universe, no civilization dares to challenge their rights. After all, the civilizations that can come here must be like us, coming with the hope of going to the new universe, and they will not end up here. Momentum comes at the critical moment."
"Then will they be the Zero Returners and the intelligent group that initiated the Return Movement?"
Liang Bing also asked.
"Still not sure."
Tomoko shook her head again.
It seemed that even after entering this third-level environment, they could not find the answer they wanted.
However, Liang Bing continued: "Can we reply to the order maker here?"
Obviously, her crazy attributes have emerged again.
When she was in the known universe, she often did some crazy things.
Although her temperament has changed a lot since coming to the virtual three-body universe, her nature is hard to change and she will not really change.
"what do you want to do?"
Hearing this, Cheng Xin, Guan Yifan, and Zhizi were all startled.
Did she want to question the authority of the order-makers?
"Why do you look at me like that?"
Seeing this, Liang Bing was speechless and said: "It's not what you think, I just want to ask them something."
"I think that when a god asks a question from a mortal, as long as the mortal is respectful enough, even if the god disdains the mortal, he shouldn't just kill the mortal, right?"
she continued.
She once was a so-called "god".
When she was a god, she was also a soft-spoken person. As long as the mortals spoke nicely enough to make her happy, she would not ignore them and would even fulfill their wishes.
Now, to the god-level civilization of this universe, she is also a mortal.
Comparing herself with others, she realized that even the God of this universe was difficult to fathom and would not be as generous as she once was.
But there is a high probability, should, maybe, maybe not that it will be crazy. It will be destroyed for mortals who are respectful enough.
However, when she said this, she used an uncertain tone.
"This is too risky!"
Hearing this, Tomoko still shook her head and did not agree with her doing this.
"But I have to do it."
Liang Bing was still very determined: "Now that we've reached this point, I won't hide it from you anymore."
"I also have a reason to do this, because I may not be able to travel to the new universe like you..."
Cheng Xin, Guan Yifan, and even Zhizi couldn't understand what she said.
"Why? If the theory that the memory goes to the new universe is true, and the promise given by the Return Movement is not a scam, why can't you be like us?"
Cheng Xin was the first to express his doubts and confusion.
Among the few people, she is the one who has known Liang Bing for the longest time. The two have come from the era of intimidation to the present, and she can be regarded as knowing Liang Bing very well.
Liang Bing's real name is Chen Bing. Her father is a professor at Tsinghua University. She originally had an older sister, Chen Sha, but she disappeared during the Crisis Era. Her life and death are unknown until now...
The above information was specially investigated by Cheng Xin when he was the sword holder, so there is absolutely no possibility of it being falsified.
Since Liang Bing's origin information cannot be falsified in the Earth Age, it becomes even more impossible in the Interstellar Age.
Because, in the beginning, Liang Bing shamelessly wanted to follow her.
It was not until she experienced several crises that she gradually relaxed her vigilance towards Liang Bing, and dispelled Liang Bing's suspicion that Liang Bing approached her with a purpose, and then she became a sister until now.
Since the two have always been together, Liang Bing naturally has no secrets in her eyes.
She even knows what color bra tattoo Liang Bing likes to wear, what kind of pants she likes to wear, and what day her aunt is here, unless it's inappropriate.
So, what other secrets are there?
