Become The Guard AI Of The Lost Civilization After Transmigration

  Chapter 34 The Gate Builder

  The scientific research spacecraft began to conduct detailed detection of the asteroid belt.

   And the floating city on the gas giant planet also started a debate at this time.

   "You are crazy! It took us 600 years to gain a foothold here, and today you tell me that we want to return to that era of wandering?"

  The mayor of the floating city, who was also the speaker at the ceremony before, made a shocked sound.

  Although he believed the words of the chief scientist, he didn't think it was a good way.

   "Listen to me, Mayor, we will never have a future in this floating city!"

  "The resources here are always in short supply, and the surrounding environment is still very unstable. Basically every 60 years, we will be involved in a big storm here, which will destroy the previous construction!"

   "A previous breach in the atmosphere shield nearly killed us all! What can we develop in this situation?"

   "It took us 600 years to piece together a primitive spaceship that can travel here and to the satellites, but how many resources did it bring? A drop in the bucket!"

"Listen to me, this is a rare opportunity. You and I both know that there is not so much kindness in the interstellar world. There are not many civilizations like 'Guardians' who are at least willing to help. If we miss this opportunity, we will only Trapped here forever!"

  The mayor was silent for a while listening to the chief scientist's heartfelt words, and finally shook his head slowly:

   "...You also know that there is not so much goodwill in the interstellar world. How far can we go with just a colony ship without any escort? It is unknown whether we can find a habitable planet."

  "If there is not even this place that can barely accommodate our foothold, maybe our civilization will really disappear from history..."

   "..."

  The chief scientist's eyes darkened slightly. He knew that the mayor was telling the truth. If this desperate choice fails, the entire civilization will also enter the countdown to life.

  But being trapped in this floating city is also tantamount to slow death, the chief scientist is not reconciled.

  He was about to say something when the mayor suddenly changed his voice and looked at him seriously:

"but…"

   "Once upon a time, our ancestors had many arguments in order to continue the fire of civilization."

   "At that time, they chose to let the people vote to determine the direction of the entire civilization."

  The eyes of the chief scientist suddenly lit up: "You mean..."

   “…vote, I will respect the people’s choice.”

   Thus, a big vote about the life and death of civilization began.

  The two million people in the entire floating city got their own electronic registered votes, and voted for one of the two choices through the local area network in the city:

  Choose to take a colony ship and once again join the dangerous interstellar space, or continue to live a relatively stable but hopeless life here?

   And three days later, they got the results.

  Looking at the people who were loading everything that could be moved onto the colony ship, the mayor showed a helpless expression:

   "Sure enough, people yearn for unknown expectations?"

   "No," the chief scientist shook his head and said seriously: "People just don't like a hopeless future."

   "Have you forgotten the foundation of our civilization? Speaking of which, it seems that we haven't called ourselves that for a long time."

  The mayor was stunned for a moment, and then he said in a daze: "Is it 'a never-ending stream of water'? Ever since those damned aquatic invaders eroded us from the inside, we seem to have hated 'water'."

   "But that's actually our real name when we entered the interstellar space, isn't it? We are, 'Turbulent Civilization'..."

  …

   The colony spacecraft provided by Li Wenyuan has left this galaxy, and the abandoned mining station and "city" has lost its last vitality.

  He has no interest in restarting a mining station that is basically unusable, but he is quite happy to have harvested a well-educated scientist.

   "Thank you for your help, esteemed guardian, according to the agreement, I will no longer be a member of 'Turbulent Civilization', and will instead pledge my allegiance to you."

  What the chief scientist said in the scientific research spacecraft made Li Wenyuan stunned, and then couldn't help asking:

   "'Turbulent Civilization'? Your pronunciation seems very similar to the current 'Turbulent Empire' in the galaxy. Is there any relationship between you?"

   "...that is our enemy. They were originally a kind of aquatic intelligent race under our rule, and they were absorbed by us as a member of the citizens."

  "But we didn't expect them to be so vicious. Through some methods we didn't know, they parasitized and controlled many people, and then slaughtered the remaining species."

   "After that, they replaced us and became the main race of the 'Turbulent Civilization', and we are now a group of drifters."

  The chief scientist lowered his head and summed up the history of blood and tears in a few words.

   Li Wenyuan was a little surprised, he didn't expect that there was such a blood feud between them.

   "It's better to be a synthetic human, hardworking, sleepless, only follow the instructions, without any shortcomings."

   After sighing, he continued to look at the asteroid belt.

  The scan of the scientific research spacecraft just now has found some abnormal signals, and now he is pinpointing the source of the abnormality.

  "...After scanning the entire galaxy, there are only some abnormal signals here. Is there anything left by humans?"

  Li Wenyuan kept narrowing down the scanning area with great interest, and finally identified a rocky asteroid that was larger than other asteroids.

  It is about ten kilometers in diameter and looks ordinary, but if it falls on the earth, it will be enough to cause a mass extinction.

   And the abnormal signal came from it.

   "What's in here?"

  Li Wenyuan also stared at the asteroid curiously, and sent a drone to try to approach it.

   However, the mutation also happened at this moment.

  Maybe a heat source signal was detected, and something "sleeping" in the asteroid was activated.

  The entire rocky shell was blasted open, revealing a dim green glow in the core.

   Looking closely, it can be seen that they are aggregates composed of a group of nano-robots.

  The fluorescence seems to be the source of the abnormal signal, but after these nano-robots are activated, they no longer emit these lights, as if they are deliberately attracting people to explore here.

  Without their rocky outer shell, they still form a sphere with a diameter of about 5 kilometers. In a windless universe, their surfaces actually have ripples as if they were blown.

  Subsequently, this group of activated nano-robots began to peel off from the surface layer, gradually spreading from a tight sphere into a storm-like existence.

   "This is..." Li Wenyuan stared intently at the scene in front of him, a little incredulous.

  The scientific research spacecraft was far away from the asteroid belt under his control as early as when there was a change. At such a distance, it is difficult to see the storm composed of nano-robots.

   Only drones near the asteroid belt are still recording this magical scene.

  The storm composed of these nano-robots seems to have extraordinary destructive power, and all the asteroids within the range of the storm began to shrink visibly with the naked eye.

  Whether it's metal, rock, or ice crystals, everything they touch is broken down and reassembled into one of them.

  Seeing that the nano storm is getting bigger and bigger, Li Wenyuan is suddenly alert, and almost wants to let the unmanned fleet staying in the solar system jump over, and wipe out these nano robots that seem to never stop here.

   But at this moment, the nano storm seemed to have received some signal, and stopped instantly.

   And as they stopped, a weak signal was transmitted from all the nanorobots to the research spacecraft.

  【New technologies have been added to the technology tree】

  【The new coordinates have been entered into the star map】

Li Wenyuan, who hadn't heard these two words for a long time, was slightly taken aback. When he looked at the nano storm again, he found that they seemed to have lost their vitality, as if sending out this signal would lead to their destruction, and turned into a cloud of floating nano robot dust. .

   "What's going on here..." Li Wenyuan was at a loss when he saw this scene. In doubt, he opened the technology tree and saw the new technology.

  【Research on the founders】

  【Technology level: 6】

  【Introduction: Through a group of strange nano-robot remains, we have parsed out a few words of an ancient civilization that has been destroyed. They seem to be related to a huge star gate, but the specific situation requires us to conduct multiple rounds of research. If we can find their "star gate", then we may be able to speed up the research process, and by the way, find the ancient civilization. "Gift"? 】

  【Possible Technology: None】

   "The person who built the gate?" After traversing all the memories, Li Wenyuan did not find any relevant information.

   But Li Wenyuan is very interested in this kind of "independent technology" that has neither pre-technology nor follow-up technology on the technology tree.

   "That's right, we need to hurry up and improve our scientific research capabilities, so that we can quickly research these level 6 technologies... The first step of expansion is almost complete. After the construction of all scientific research divisions is completed, it is time to further increase production capacity..."

   "... If I remember correctly, there seems to be a completely abandoned giant building nearby?"
