Chapter 1360: Greetings from the Turan Civilization
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was familiar because the galaxy before them had a yellow dwarf star that was in the main sequence, just like the solar system that Dragon City’s people longed for.
There were also eight to nine planets that slowly revolved around this star.
The third planet there also had an atmosphere and water, just like a shining sapphire.
In fact, this galaxy also had a gas giant planet that was much larger than the third planet and rich in high-energy materials. It could provide endless fuel for the civilizations on the third planet to rush out of the galaxy.
It was strange because the third planet in this galaxy, the only habitable planet with an atmosphere and water, actually had three moons.
These three moons seemed to be much larger than Earth’s moon in size and mass.
They also rotated around the planet much faster than Earth’s moon.
This caused a tidal force and mass exchange that was a hundred times stronger than the earth-moon system.
It also caused the planet’s crust movement and climate change to be much more intense than Earth’s.
No, it wasn’t accurate to say “Right now.”.
Meng Chao did not “See’this galaxy.
The scale of the universe far exceeds the observational and imaginative limits of carbon-based intelligent life that was born on a planet.
Meng Chao could not “See’the edge of this galaxy directly from the center of the galaxy.
But he did not “Read”, “Hear”, “Feel”, or use all the perceptive organs of Earthlings to gather all the information about this galaxy.
Instead, all the information about this galaxy flooded into his brain through a torrent of data.
It was as if he was enlightened and instantly understood that this was the home of the ancient Tulan people.
As expected, there was nothing on this blue planet that was as beautiful, peaceful, and peaceful as Earth at the beginning, It was as if it was still in a state where heaven and earth had just been created and chaos had yet to be divided.
Soon, spots of light appeared on the land that was covered and divided by the ocean.
These spots of light grew rapidly like a colony of bacteria that was splitting and multiplying endlessly. They expanded, multiplied, flourished, and connected at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The spots of light that were connected seemed to be not satisfied with living on the two-dimensional surface of the earth.
They extended their shimmering mycelium toward the sky, toward the outside of the atmosphere, toward the Sea of stars.
The shimmering mycelium soon established a crisscrossing three-dimensional network inside and outside of the atmosphere.
It even extended toward the three satellites like an orbit that pierced through the clouds.
Countless tiny light spots accelerated, accelerated, and accelerated along the orbit toward the three satellites and gathered into tiny light spots on the satellites.
This was the miracle of life.
It was also the great power of civilization.
It was as if the development history of the Tulan civilization over hundreds of millions of years had been compressed to the extreme, repeating itself in the depths of Meng Chao’s brain in just a few minutes.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long.
Perhaps, just like birth, old age, illness, and death, the laws of nature, every civilization would face the problem of flourishing and declining after they had developed to the extreme.
Meng Chao saw that on the third planet and its satellites, clusters of small black spots that looked like mold suddenly emerged from the interior of the colorful and extremely brilliant light spots.
They looked like some kind of incurable deadly virus.
It also looked like the ancient Tulan civilization had erupted into a massive civil war.
All sorts of ultimate methods that were comparable to thermonuclear weapons were projected onto the sky above the common homeland of the ancient Tulan people.
The black spots were growing exponentially at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Soon, they converged into a large area of black spots.
The deformed and ugly black spots looked like the bloody mouths that were swallowing the civilization and even the planet.
They were also like mysterious black eyeballs that contained infinite cold malice and extremely sarcastic smiles.
Soon, the planet that was full of vitality and the glorious civilization were all devoured by the black spots.
Even the light spots on the three moons were covered in ‘mold’.
The habitable planet that had an atmosphere and liquid water turned from a full, plump, cute, and hopeful fruit into a withered, rotten, pus-dripping, and stinky one.
In the end, as if he could not bear to see its ending, Meng Chao’s perspective was pulled further and further away by a mysterious force. He could no longer see the details of the galaxy. He could only see the burning stars in the Dark Universe.
No, Meng Chao suddenly realized that this wasn’t his perspective.
It was the perspective of a certain spacecraft.
He wasn’t being pulled further and further away by the mysterious force either.
It was that the spacecraft itself was escaping.
It was full of the last hope of the Tulan civilization, escaping from the mother galaxy that was about to be destroyed.
“This seems to be some kind of immersive information interaction technology similar to the ‘virtual reality’of Dragon City.
No, this technology seems to be able to directly inject a large amount of data into my brain, which is more efficient than the information transmission of the virtual reality technology.
“No wonder the human-faced spider is unwilling to talk nonsense with me. It can complete the transmission in just a few seconds by using language to talk for half an hour.
“Is this what the Tulan civilization looked like before they transmigrated to another world? “It seems that they were able to build orbital elevators and develop three satellites, which were slightly more advanced than the civilization on Earth. However, there shouldn’t be any gap between them, because
they didn’t have the ability to explore the nearby planets, not to mention the gas giant planet that was rich in fuel.
“If Dragon City accidentally transmigrated to another world, then the ancient Tulan transmigration seemed to be a helpless act after their mother planet self-destructed.
“Why was their mother planet destroyed? And where did they get the ability to transmigrate through the Sea of Stars?”
Aseries of question marks appeared in Meng Chao’s heart.
As if sensing his confusion, a subtle ripple came from behind him.
“You are not one of our clansmen.”
Avoice said so.
No, it was not one voice.
It was countless voices that came together and spoke in unison.
These voices..
There were men and women, Old and young, tired and excited, sharp and deep. There were people who felt despair as if they had lost their last straw, and there were people who were filled with resentment that refused to believe reality. Of course.., there were also voices whose owners had long since
guessed that Meng Chao was not a Tulan, but were still unwilling to give up. Instead, they burned the fire of hope even brighter.
‘When Meng Chao looked back, he saw a huge metal plate floating in the vast sea of stars.
There seemed to be a mysterious source of light within the metal plate, causing the metal plate to appear crystal clear. Every detail engraved on it was fine and could be directly transferred into Meng Chao’s brain.
The center of the metal plate was occupied by the image of a man and a woman, two ancient Tulan people.
This pair of ancient Turans had an elegant temperament and a well-proportioned figure. From their facial features to the proportions of their limbs, there was nothing that did not conform to the Golden Section. Although they were naked, they did not bring the slightest sense of barbarism or blasphemy,
instead, they were filled with a solemn and inviolable feeling.
It was completely different from the primitive and unsophisticated feeling of the “Neanderthals’that Earth scientists had restored through imagination.
It was something like the famous sketch of the people of Veruvius by Leonardo da Vinci, a Renaissance master.
And beside the two near-perfect human figures, there was a wealth of information.
From the simple structure of the star system in which Tulan’s home planet was located.
To the numbers and arithmetic symbols used by the ancient tulans, as well as the weights and measures.
To the images of some lower animals and plants.
In addition to the patterns, there were also all kinds of sounds coming from the interior of the metal plate.
There were the sounds of lightning, thunder, rivers, storms, waves, volcanic eruptions… all kinds of geological and climate changes.
There were also the cries of birds, the growls of wild beasts, the long calls of herbivores, and even animals like dolphins and bats, which made sounds that were difficult for the human ear to recognize.
Of course, there were also humans — the short syllables of “Yi Yi ya ya ya ya’and laughter of various kinds from the ancient Tulan people.
It seemed that the other party wanted to use this method to let Chao Meng know everything about the ancient Tulan civilization in the shortest time possible.
Chao Meng’s heart skipped a beat.
He thought of the 20th century of the earth era, when the “Voyager 1 extrasolar system probe”had once occurred in the deep space of the universe.
On the Voyager 1, in addition to the necessary power system and high-energy telescope, it also carried a copper disk record and a diamond stylus.
The record stored the famous melodies in the history of human civilization, the sounds between Earth and heaven, and the greetings in dozens of human languages.
There were also 115 images on the disk, including pictures of the major planets in the Solar System, the general structure of human beings, the animals and plants on earth, and so on.
At that time, the people of Earth naively hoped that this information would help them find new intelligent life in the vast, cold, and lonely universe, and find… friends.
Putting aside the fact that information about Earth was easily leaked, whether it was naivety or stupidity was not mentioned.
Such patterns and sounds were indeed the best way to rapidly increase mutual understanding without knowing the other partys level of civilization, intelligence, or even life form.
Just like now, in just a few seconds, Meng Chao had roughly known the origins of the ancient Tulan people and the level of development of their civilization at their peak.
And the human-faced spider, or rather, the voice that controlled the human-faced spider, had also observed Meng Chao’s reaction and confirmed that he was not a savage who ate raw meat and drank blood.
This was because he did not panic at the vast starry sky, but he could roughly understand their intentions. He was not unfamiliar with the concepts of planets, galaxies, aerospace, and even interstellar travel.
In other words, it did not matter if it was good or evil, good or evil, standpoint or interests.
At the very least, Meng Chao had a similar physiological structure and way of thinking to them. He should have come from an environment very similar to their home planet. The Civilization that Meng Chao belonged to also had a similar level of development to the Tulan civilization, the possibility of
mutual understanding and cooperation with them..
