Time travel to become the guardian AI of a lost civilization

Chapter 44 Emerald Mausoleum
"Have you heard? Recently, a nascent interstellar civilization called Sechik has colonized the Holy Land!"

"Holy place? Where's the holy—you mean the 'Watcher' one?"

"Isn't it! I heard that there is a change in the border of the 'Watcher', maybe they have already done it!"

"Oh, what a poor civilization..."

They said they were pitiful, but these discussants showed no expressions of pity at all, and instead gloated.

For these old fritters who have been in the interstellar for a long time, what they are most happy to see is that various nascent interstellar civilizations violate the "taboo" of this galaxy, and then get beaten up.

Of course, the galaxy is not all these fun people.

There are also many civilizations that have suffered losses that have summed up these "taboos" and publicized them in the galaxy in order to make these nascent interstellar civilizations less detours.

But there will always be some unfortunate people in the world, or people who feel good about themselves, who try to violate these taboos.

Sechik is such a civilization.

Due to the innate "intelligence" of their race, their civilization developed into space without any obstacles.

They feel good about themselves and even think that they are the first race to rush into the universe, which makes people wonder whether their "intelligence" has been artificially transformed into "pride".

All in all, with arrogance and curiosity, they included a "Holy Land" planet into their colonial scope.

And this "Holy Land" planet is called "Emerald Mausoleum" in the galaxy.

"——'Emerald Tomb'?" Li Wenyuan, who was busy, stopped his work and looked at the information presented by his archaeologists, showing a thoughtful expression.

According to the information they unearthed from the ruins, human beings left something very, very important somewhere, so that now on his star map, there is an unusually bright dot marking a galaxy.

The content of the intelligence is vague, like a madman's nonsense, except for the coordinates of the planet, no useful information can be extracted at all.

And the coordinates of that planet are also very familiar to Li Wenyuan, who is gradually familiar with the information of the galaxy, that is the holy place of the "Watcher" of the Lost Empire - the Emerald Mausoleum.

"Why is it in this kind of place..." He frowned in the virtual space, trying to deduce the possibility from the incomplete information, but in the end he found nothing.

He knew that human beings must have intersected with "idealism", because "Zero", a special gas that idealistic civilization can use correctly, is one of the necessary conditions for restarting those ancient facilities on the earth.

But when the "Watcher" is involved, things get more complicated.

As one of the oldest civilizations in existence, the "Watcher" is also an unclear level in the galaxy.

Apart from knowing that it is an extremely idealistic civilization, very little information has flowed out.

Those "sacred places" located near its territory were only gradually confirmed which planets they were after countless civilizations "personal experiments".

However, over a long period of time, other civilizations in the galaxy have also tested the "Watcher"'s tolerance for the "Holy Land" planet.

Just passing by there, or sightseeing in the "Holy Land" planet, or even declaring the entire galaxy as part of its own territory will not attract the punishment of the "Watcher".

However, once the "Holy Land" planet is colonized and the original ecology of the planet is destroyed, it will invite a terrible attack from the "Watcher".

As for what would happen if the "Holy Land" planet was destroyed, no one knows.

"...In any case, we still have to send people there to find out." After assessing the possible threat to him from exploring the "Emerald Tomb", Li Wenyuan decided to go explore.

He doesn't think he's going to run afoul of The Watchmen.There have been cases of tourists visiting holy places with robot minions, so he has no problem sending synths there.

And it seems that there are important secrets about human beings hidden here. If he can really find something there, it must be of great help to him.

After all, where the human beings in this galaxy have gone has always been a mystery that has plagued him until now.

After thinking about it, Li Wenyuan's scientific research spacecraft loaded with synthetic humans also quietly started the thrusters.

The territory of the "Watcher" is far away from him, and he has never been to the "Emerald Tomb". Without the specific data there, he cannot directly use the jump engine to go there.

Fortunately, a certain interstellar civilization near him built a "star gate". In the space network connected by this star gate, there is an exit near the "Emerald Mausoleum".

This artificial wormhole-like shortcut allows him to quickly go to the Emerald Tomb.

Of course, he also disguised the spaceship to a certain extent. With the help of the back door left in the Kribo network, he disguised the signal of the spaceship as a member of this Huanyu enterprise.

In this case, even if the spaceship is destroyed for some unknown reason, in the eyes of all civilizations, it is just a Ke Ruibo spaceship blowing up, and he cannot be involved.

So, the "Kribo Spaceship" headed for the galaxy where the "Emerald Mausoleum" is located.

At this time, a one-sided "war" is taking place in this galaxy.

Not long after Sechik began colonizing the Emerald Tomb, the disciplinary fleet of the Wardens suddenly arrived here.

As an "extreme idealistic civilization", even the "Watcher" himself actually uses the fleet as a weapon of war, which is one of the reasons why materialistic civilization generally loathes idealistic civilization.

They think that idealistic civilization is a group of idiots who enjoy the dividends of "science" and don't recognize the existence of science.

On the other hand, idealistic civilization thinks that materialistic civilization is a group of idiots who are stuck in their own world and unwilling to accept the new world.

The two sides came and went, and scolded each other in the Milky Way for who knows how many years.

It wasn't until the last "science exchange meeting" that the two parties reluctantly sat down to discuss for a while, only to find out that the other party was a group of hopeless people, so they fought directly at the meeting place and broke up unhappy.

After that, most of the idealistic civilizations in the galaxy fell into silence, as if they wanted to make a big job to convince the materialistic civilization.

The materialistic civilization scoffed at this, saying that "the dance of a group of magic sticks is not to be feared."

Move your gaze back to the galaxy where the "Emerald Tomb" is located.

There are a large number of warship wrecks floating here. They have the same style and seem to come from the same civilization.

And in the center of the galaxy, there is a fleet constantly overflowing with purple light.

This purple light comes from their shields, which looks mysterious and ethereal.

A thin layer makes any shells, missiles, and lasers sink into the sea like a stone, without stirring up a wave.

The individual shapes of the fleet also look very dreamy, as if they came from a dream, with reality in the illusion, making people unconsciously want to cast their eyes on them.

After being attacked by the "Watchmen", the proud Sechik civilization launched a counterattack with the strength of the whole country.

They believe they have been invaded by aliens and vow to defend their colony.

Naturally "intelligent", they are also quite good at space warfare, but skills are useless in the face of absolute power, and those battleship wrecks are the best proof.

In the end, after paying a heavy price and almost exhausting all the resources of his mother planet, Sechik finally realized his own weakness, and abandoned the colony here in desperation, letting those who remained on the "Emerald Tomb" Fend for itself.

A new star who was supposed to rise on the stage of the Milky Way after a hundred years was delayed by hundreds or even thousands of years.

However, the "Watcher" fleet did not clean up the Sechik people on the "Emerald Mausoleum". It seemed that they were not worried about how much impact these remaining people would have on the "Holy Land", and believed in the "self-regulation" ability here.

Not long after such a one-sided war ended, the scientific research spacecraft controlled by Li Wenyuan also came to the "Emerald Tomb".

This planet looks very beautiful and lush, even the Gaia planet where Bao is located is slightly inferior compared to this place.

However, such a planet gave Li Wenyuan a strange sense of death.
