MTL - Become The Guard AI Of The Lost Civilization After Transmigration-Chapter 213 "Ghost Signal"
Chapter 213 "Ghost Signal"
"I'm a lone wolf. Today is my first... I can't remember exactly. Anyway, today is another interstellar adventure of mine."
"The identity of the 'Prophet Chosen' made me a little breathless, so I had to adopt the risky method I have always been to relieve the pressure."
"But this is just a stopgap measure. Those fanatical believers with psychic powers will soon find me. I must try my best to relieve my mood before they take me back."
"Not to boast, I still think my life is full of legends. If I write my experience into a book, I may become the greatest fantasy writer in the galaxy."
"This kind of thing is really unbelievable. I will use this adventure to prove whether there can really be a 'legend' in the world—"
The physical diary was closed by Lone Wolf, and then put back into his storage bag.
As he said in his diary, he "escaped" this time, and the matter of the Khan tribe and the "Guardian of the Holy Land" made him upset, so he had to come out to take a breath.
He is really not interested in these things, the "power" of the ruler is not as real to him as an interesting alien relic.
He is also not interested in using the token left to him by the Prophet Zakran to gather believers. It is widely rumored that he, the "chosen people of the Prophet", will start a "Great Holy War" in the name of the Prophet, but that thing is actually He has already been pressed to the bottom of the box to eat ashes.
However, his identity as a "chosen voter" is actually known by the believers of the "Guardian of the Holy Land". With the status quo that the Prophet Zakran has left civilization forever, countless believers of the "Guardian of the Holy Land" want to inquire about him Consider the case of the Prophet.
In the end, the lone wolf, who was overwhelmed by the disturbance, "left" like the prophet. Although it was only temporary, it was also a rare leisure.
Of course, after the previous few inexplicable "legendary experiences", Lone Wolf has been very cautious about the choice of adventure location.
Although he is not afraid, if something like "The Great Khan's Trial" or "The Prophet's Chosen" is on the table, then he, who has always been troublesome, will only feel "bad luck".
"... I hope there will be no 'accidents' this time..."
Lone Wolf tapped on the operating interface of the spacecraft, randomly selected a galaxy, and then started the jump engine of the spacecraft.
—Yes, his spaceship has been equipped with a jump engine, which is from the help of the "Guardian of the Holy Land".
After all, he often takes risks in the galaxy, and the conventional hyperspace engine is not so efficient, so the believers of the "Guardian of the Holy Land" modified his car and installed a jump engine that only the lost empire has.
With the help of this powerful super-light engine that can complete "teleportation", Lone Wolf has been able to travel to some places that he once thought were too far away.
With the flow of brilliance, the "broken time and space" formed when the jump engine was started began to reorganize, and maintained a consistent state with the destination, directly "changing" the time and space where the entire spacecraft was located into the destination.
Although he doesn't understand the working principle of this engine at all, it doesn't prevent the lone wolf from lamenting the magic of the technology of the lost empire.
“…It’s incredible technology, it’s hard to imagine how these lost empires developed…”
Lone Wolf was thinking, glanced casually out of the corner of his eye, and then froze.
The jump destination he chose at random was not as ordinary as he imagined, but on the contrary, it had some extremely obvious peculiarities.
The most conspicuous thing is that there are a large number of spaceships here, and judging from the appearance and style, these spaceships come from different civilizations.
So many spaceships gathered here, it made the lone wolf almost think that he came to a certain pass galaxy.
But after looking at the position on the star map, he confirmed that this place is indeed a theoretical "barren galaxy".
There is neither a prosperous star road network passing through here, nor any cosmic phenomena worth paying attention to. Logically speaking, this place will only be an insignificant one of the hundreds of billions of star systems in the Milky Way.
However, the accident still happened.
"...Am I a mobile accident generator? Where is the adventure?"
Lone Wolf couldn't hold back, took out the diary that recorded his legendary life, carefully observed the spaceships in the galaxy, and wrote the follow-up to this adventure.
"...I came to an abnormal galaxy, where a large number of spaceships from different civilizations with unknown purposes gathered."
"I tried to send a communication to these spacecraft, but I didn't receive any reply, and it seemed that they were unmanned."
"I didn't rashly try to land on those spaceships, but the drones sent to detect them told me that there are indeed no signs of biological life on the spaceships, but there are mostly traces of robots."
"Could it be that a group of robots drove these spaceships here?"
"This anomaly reminds me of a little thing that happened in the Milky Way recently. I have heard more than once that there have been cases of theft of robots and spaceships in civilizations."
"Although these incidents ended up with 'an unknown gang of thieves making waves', my instinct told me that something must be wrong."
"And this galaxy may be one of the roots."
The diary recorded so far, the lone wolf stopped exploring in the galaxy and decided to leave.
Although his curiosity is strong, he is extremely cautious when dealing with the "unknown", and will not take risks easily.
He is going to spread the anomaly of this galaxy to see what others are going to do.
But thinking about the abnormal robots who came here, Lone Wolf thought of "Guardian" for no reason.
"...Speaking of which, the 'Guardian' also seems to be machine intelligence, right? This lost mechanical empire may have a unique insight into what's going on here..."
His spacecraft quickly left the gravitational range of the stars here, and was ready to start the jump engine after reaching a safe area outside the gravity well.
Recalling the special features of the entire galaxy, he checked the information about this galaxy again.
The introduction to this galaxy is very short, just like most galaxies in the Milky Way, there is only one sentence:
"This is a star system composed of one F-type star, five barren planets, and one highly poisonous planet. It is nothing special."
"...The most likely abnormality is this poisonous planet, right?" As soon as Lone Wolf had this idea, a bad premonition suddenly appeared in his heart.
Although it cannot be seen with the naked eye, the drone he left in the galaxy for surveillance has transmitted pictures.
The surface layer of the atmosphere of the highly toxic planet experienced violent fluctuations, as if some drastic changes were taking place inside the planet.
However, this is not the source of bad premonitions. What is really problematic is a series of strong signals.
This string of signals seems to have existed inside the galaxy for a long time, but it was extremely weak before, even so weak that it could not be detected at all.
But the string of signals at this time was strengthened countless times by unknown means, like a rooted fire, burning and spreading rapidly.
Just the moment the signal was received, the car that accompanied Lone Wolf on countless space adventures had serious problems.
All instruments fail at the same time, out of control.
The operation interface of the spaceship, after a burst of flickering, turned into blood.
The disordered characters are arranged on it, which seems to be chaotic, but you can vaguely see the meaning you want to express:
【%@#* kill nsadohdr maim erud & $% dismember 5395714 we come back】
The indescribable strange signal started its journey of infection, and was quickly detected by the galactic civilizations.
Almost all electronic devices that can receive signals will be indiscriminately infected with this "signal virus" and enter an uncontrollable state.
Its form of expression looks very familiar, and more than one civilization has discovered it. This signal is very similar to the "ghost signal" that the "Guardian" once sent.
This once made them wonder if the "Guardian" had something abnormal again.
However, what they didn't expect was that almost when this signal began to spread in the galaxy, the real "ghost signal" from the "Guardian" also began to spread in the galaxy.
The galactic civilizations who detected two "ghost signals" at the same time couldn't help being confused: which one should they believe?
