Chapter 809 Dangerous Relics
This is the first time that Gao Gong has seen the existence of cosmic relics. Even though he ascended successfully three times in a row last time and became a sixth-level virtual master, he only took a glimpse of it from afar while visiting some super civilizations as a civilization leader.
Even super civilizations cherish treasures such as cosmic relics to the extreme. They can only be viewed from a distance, and in many cases, the cosmic relics that can be viewed from a distance are not even the real body of the relics.
However, in the process of eating melons, Gao Gong confirmed one thing.
For cosmic relics, any "exploration system" skills are useless.
Facts have proved that it is true. As soon as the "exploration" is released, it disappears like a drop in the ocean.
Even the name cannot be refreshed.
So this is the first time that Gao Gong has heard that this cosmic relic has mutated from an "evolution modifier" to a "civilization evolution device".
‘Evolution modifier’ is probably the attribute that this cosmic relic should have. The Spacetime Administration has cooperation with some super civilizations, and will station spacetime technicians in the civilization. With the help of these technicians, the super civilization can peek into the future and master the ability of this relic in advance through the timeline of successful synthesis of the relic.
‘Evolution modifier’ is probably from this.
But why it became a ‘civilization evolution device’, this has to be asked by the parties involved.
“It chose it by itself.”
As Deep Web spoke, the line and the box disappeared, replaced by a long corridor. The whole corridor seemed to be condensed by time, containing endless technological evolution. At a glance, it seemed that one could see the process of a certain civilization from rise to fall.
At the end of the corridor, there was the figure of Deep Web, but at this time, Deep Web was sitting on a bench made of time, smiling at Senior Engineer.
She patted the side of herself, but Gao Gong did not sit down. Instead, he asked curiously, "What is your current state?"
"Just like you in the future, a super-dimensional life."
The deep web in front of him suddenly disappeared, but Gao Gong could feel that the other party was spying on him from every angle of time.
"Have you mastered the changes in time parameters?"
Since there are space parameters, there are naturally time parameters, and comprehending time parameters is the prerequisite for becoming a super-dimensional life, because only super-dimensional life can see the future.
"You will know when you sit down."
Gao Gong glanced at the chair and finally sat down. At the moment he sat down, his consciousness "boomed", as if he had experienced the Big Bang, from a "singularity" to everything in an instant.
He seemed to see the birth and destruction of all things in the process of time.
Finally, the picture was fixed on a strange creature.
This creature was translucent and almost filled a large box. The outline of this creature was like a big worm, but the only organ on its body was a densely covered mouth. These mouths were unconsciously moving, opening their mouths, appearing, closing their mouths, and disappearing their mouths.
"Is this the body of the memory worm?"
The body of the fifth-order information life cannot be seen by lower-order life. Even if Gao Gong opens his divine consciousness, he can only see part of it - because the other party is too big.
And now, Gao Gong finally saw its entire body.
"Yes, it is its existence that affects the synthetic environment and interferes with the properties of the relics," Shen Wang said.
"The purely chaotic environment makes the cosmic relics more inclined to evolve into existence that can suppress it. This kind of existence is not an individual, but a civilization."
And soon, human-shaped outlines as big as rice grains appeared, and then mouths appeared and opened, and memory worms drilled into the human-shaped bodies. The worms are people, and people are worms.
"Is this the past or the future?"
"It is both the past and the future."
Gao Gong narrowed his eyes and said:
"So, in the near future, I will let everyone absorb the memory worm and become its host?"
"Isn't this natural? Who would be willing to give up a dead fifth-order life? And I can help you seal its evolution at the information level, but the anchor point at the material level must be inherited by the life itself."
"So, I split the memory worm into two parts, 'memory' and 'worm'?"
"Yes."
Before this, Gao Gong did have a vague idea, but now, not only does he have an idea, but he has also been informed of the operation steps in advance.
"So, seeing the future is one of your abilities?"
"To be precise, it's the future of a person, and the more familiar the person is, the better," Shenwang reappeared and shrugged, "As for strangers, it's okay, but there is a certain probability that you will be discovered, so you should use this trick with caution; if someone knows that you have a cosmic relic in your hands, believe me, your end will definitely be miserable, and you don't need to predict this to know it clearly."
Gao Gong certainly understood.
Being able to predict the future means that he can predict and avoid the risks of the 'future' in advance.
This is a bug-like ability.
"But this shouldn't be your strongest ability," although this ability is exaggerated enough, Gao Gong still said, "Since you said that this cosmic relic is called 'Civilization Evolution Device', then the strongest ability of this cosmic relic should be related to civilization."
Shenwang's expression was very complicated, with excitement and regret.
"It is indeed related to civilization. To put it simply, its ability is one, no, hundreds of cyber test sites operating simultaneously. As long as there is a seed, it will take root and sprout, and evolve into the technology tree of the entire civilization."
Gao Gong was stunned for a long time before he couldn't help but say, "Don't tell me it can evolve knowledge!"
Deep Web nodded vigorously.
According to Deep Web, the ability of the 'civilization evolver' is to evolve an entire civilization technology tree.
For example, if you master a 'third-level professional knowledge', it can automatically evolve this 'technology branch' and deduce all the professional knowledge of the entire professional knowledge chain.
If you obtain an entire professional knowledge chain, then, as long as there is enough time, it can also evolve other professional knowledge chains in the civilization panel.
"...So, even if it is the professional knowledge of the ninth-level civilization, it can evolve?"
Shenwang hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes."
Gaogong and Shenwang looked at each other, and Gaogong said with a very solemn expression: "This matter must be kept secret! Otherwise, I will definitely be hunted down by the advanced civilization, and you will most likely be imprisoned in the core area of the ninth-level civilization. Not to mention a hundred years, one million years, or ten million years, you will not be released!"
Shenwang nodded in agreement.
From the perspective of relics, this is a somewhat useless and extremely buggy ability.
In a short period of time, it will not increase any power of the user, and Gaogong's imagined super soldier legion is even more out of the question.
But from the perspective of civilization, this is a cosmic relic that will be destroyed if it is not obtained.
The reason is very simple, it can break through the "civilization lock" created by advanced civilizations.
In order to prevent the leakage of technology (mainly the leakage of the technology tree), advanced civilizations do their best, bloodline locks, gene locks, dark jungle laws, civilization upgrades, etc., the only purpose is to prevent other civilizations from developing technology against themselves and setting off a technology tree war.
After all, among advanced civilizations (level 6 and above), resources, population, environment, etc. are no longer a problem. For example, the level 7 ancient civilization behind the mother city has a perpetual motion machine. The competition and destruction of the technology tree is the source of friction between advanced civilizations. For example, if the development direction of a certain emerging civilization is exactly what an advanced civilization does not want to see, then this advanced civilization will destroy it at all costs. Gao Gong is in a more dangerous situation now. Because the "civilization evolution device" can not only evolve civilization knowledge, but even the knowledge of the ninth-level civilization, commonly known as the "ultimate knowledge", can be deduced. You know, in the evolution of this universe for more than 20 billion years, only 6 ninth-level civilizations have evolved. These 6 behemoths joined forces to form the civilization parliament. There is a rumor among advanced civilizations that the number of ninth-level civilizations has reached the upper limit and it is impossible to give birth to new ninth-level civilizations. Once the "civilization evolution device" comes out, all ambitious super civilizations will be jealous. Similarly, the ninth-level civilization is even less likely to be willing to have another ultimate civilization share power with them.
After the surprise, Gao Gong and Shen Wang realized that their current situation was probably not much better than before. The cyber wave set off by a fifth-level information creature would cost them half their lives, not to mention the super civilizations hidden in the depths of the universe.
"We have to leave this planet quickly," Shen Wang said anxiously.
Gao Gong paced a few times and shook his head.
"No, leaving now will only make you look guilty. Now may be an opportunity."
"What opportunity?"
"An opportunity to use the tiger skin as a banner."
Gao Gong's memories of his previous life, combined with his experience in this life, he can be sure that not only the cyber test site on Ji Lie Star, but all the cyber test sites controlled by the seventh-level ancient machine civilization have been attacked.
And those supreme beings, and even the existence behind the supreme beings, their purpose is to use these cyber test sites to indirectly attack the seventh-level ancient civilization.
And now, because of the off-site factor of Gao Gong, the Cyber Tide ended half a year ahead of schedule.
The current situation is that, except for the Machine Rift Planet, other test planets are still in dire straits.
In this case, if the operation is good, Gao Gong can completely pull the skin of the seventh-level civilization when leaving this planet.
As a peripheral force of the seventh-level civilization, the civilization develops quickly, isn't this a matter of course?
Of course, the advanced civilization is not stupid, and it has to find a very good reason to put on this skin.
For example, hunting down the "Supreme One" is a very good reason.
What else is more convenient than the victim helping to catch the murderer?
