Time travel to become the guardian AI of a lost civilization

Chapter 60 Ring World
In today's galaxy, due to the widespread use of hyperspace engines, places without hyperspace channels are inaccessible to most civilizations.

Such is the case with this newly discovered and peculiar galaxy.

There is no hyperspace area around it, and there is no hyperspace channel. Although it is in the Milky Way, it seems to be completely out of touch with the Milky Way.

Even if it is feasible to sail to this place with thrusters, it needs to be prepared to take thousands of years.

A normal civilization would not waste time doing such a thankless task. In a sense, this kind of place seemed to be specially prepared for the lost empire.

Li Wenyuan's scientific research spacecraft brought the gray wind to jump here, so he didn't need to spend a long time navigating in the interstellar space.

As the coordinates of the galaxy unearthed in the remains of the earth, he has reason to think that this is something left by human beings.

"... No matter how you look at it, this huge building is enough to be called a 'miracle'..." Gray Wind sighed, and Li Wenyuan looked at the huge building in this galaxy with a shocked expression. expression.

At first glance, the huge galaxy space looks very empty. The planets that should have formed part of the galaxy have disappeared without a trace. All planets, asteroids, meteorites, and even space junk no longer exist. Only the central star is still shining.

But in such a very "clean" space, there is a very conspicuous giant building that replaces those planets and is floating here.

It is a huge ring-shaped structure, which is built in the star's gravity well, close to the star.

The planet is only a small part of the ring, and the side facing the star is a huge area with the surface area of ​​300 million Earths.

Even though many places on that side were not built for habitation, it is not difficult to accommodate tens of trillions of people on the rest.

The side facing away from the star is a huge protective layer wrapped with unknown materials, in which mechanical light shines, and what looks like a cannon muzzle can be seen, which seems to be built to destroy the approaching meteorites and space junk.

And Li Wenyuan also saw the records of this "miracle" in the database.

【Ring World】

[Introduction: This is a great project, and its large enough livable area can accommodate an unimaginable population.Even though some people may think that this is an unrealistic vanity project, when the technological level reaches a certain height, whether it is practical or not does not seem so important.Maybe one day in the future, there will be creatures that need this place]

With the completion of the record, his research progress in the seventh-level technology "Galaxy Miracle" on the technology tree has increased a lot in an instant.

Obviously, the ring world in front of him is a complete, undamaged giant building, and the data it provides is enough to support the foundation of the "Miracle of the Galaxy".

The technology that originally took hundreds of years to successfully research has now been shortened to only a few years. Perhaps in the near future, Li Wenyuan can also try to build such a "face project".

"...So, is this stuff also made by humans in idle time?"

This ring world has grown into a terrifying situation. If it weren't for the fact that the buildings on the earth that were almost integrated with the planet itself could not be moved here, he would have the idea of ​​simply moving his family to this ring world.

Most of the planets that disappeared were also dismantled. Whether it was to maintain the stability of the ring world or to gather enough materials to build the ring world, they were all cleaned out from the interior of the galaxy, leaving only one star that provides energy And a huge ring megastructure.

At this moment, the signal released by the ring world all the time also detected Li Wenyuan's arrival, and a news came that surprised him a little.

[Disconnected ring world detected]

[Reestablishing connection with it...]

"This place actually belongs to the category that can be reconnected?" Similar system messages reminded Li Wenyuan of the mining station he encountered on a gas giant planet.

At that time, he wondered if there were still many lost human buildings in the galaxy, and now it seems that such a ring world is also one of them.

However, the news he received next made him a little dazed.

[Connection failed, error reason: Ring World Control Center has been destroyed]

[Please manually repair the Ring World Control Center]

"Destroyed?" The news of the unexpected failure made Li Wenyuan frowned, and his eyes that had been surprised by Huan Shi Shi became cautious.

It was the first time he had seen "being destroyed" so far, and it was no small matter.

You must know that the mining station I encountered before was just "cannot detect the control center", rather than directly characterizing it as "destroyed".

But from the appearance, the ring world is quite intact, and there is no trace of destruction.

"That is to say... what happened 'inside' the Ring World to destroy the Ring World's control center?"

This is a certain possible guess, because the ring world itself is a huge habitable world.

If human beings once placed native creatures on it, it is not impossible for some "ignorant" guys to destroy the control center of the ring world.

"That's not okay... You can't ruin the world around you."

Thinking of this, Li Wenyuan looked at a technology on the technology tree.

[Integrated Land Combat Units]

[Technology level: 4]

[Introduction: Even though space warfare accounts for 99% of interstellar warfare, we still need some cutting-edge weapons suitable for combat inside the planet to completely gain control of the planet without destroying the planet's facilities and population.Perhaps in the near future, we will have a more efficient way to clean up the rebels]

[Possible technology: giant combat body (99.9%); mechanical combat body (99.9%); nano combat body (99.9%)]

This is the so-called "Army Technology", which is the Army, but it is not quite the same as the Army in the conventional sense.

Just like a mechanical battle body, it is actually a comprehensive floating fortress, not a Gundam.

Although it is much smaller than the warships used for combat in space, it is equipped with more combat components suitable for precision strikes near the ground.

But among the interstellar, the position of the army is a bit awkward.

Because the space battle is the most important thing, as long as the space battle is won, it means that the balance of victory is infinitely inclined to you.

It is a good word for the army to describe it as vulnerable when facing the space force, and it is basically vulnerable to a single blow.

Therefore, most civilizations do not deliberately develop the army. You can often see some interstellar civilizations whose fleet strength is killing the world in space, and the land troops are still at the level where they have just ascended into space.

Although Li Wenyuan has studied the technology of land combat, he has not actually produced these combat units.

But after seeing the "Nano Battle Body", he looked directly at Gray Wind who was looking at the world around him curiously.

The technology of this nano-war body comes from a transformation of Gray Wind.

So he said, "Grey Wind, do you want to play around the world?"

"Is it possible? So what image do I need to log in as?"

"Do as you like, but I need to warn in advance that there may be some land threats in the ring world. I have already started to produce suitable land troops, you have to be careful."

"Don't worry," Gray Wind said, but it directly transformed into a "Gundam" emitting dark green light.

While transforming into a nanostorm, her land-based combat strength will increase significantly, but she seems to have a soft spot for this giant robot in human form.

"How is it? What do you think of my 'Grey Wind Battle Body'?"

"...It's very handsome, and it fits my previous imagination of future wars."

Li Wenyuan sighed in admiration, then controlled the scientific research spacecraft, and followed Gray Wind to approach the ring world.

The special projection facility in the ring world has created a dark screen for some places here to simulate the alternation of day and night.

As for the area that represents the night, there are currently city lights dotted around the area around the world.
