Chapter 591: Chapter 592 The End of the First Generation
After that tens of millions of armed fighting, the \'land\' formed by these floating corpses made the Odega people realize the buoyancy of the sea, and then made the ambitious people think that since the land resources have been occupied by the old forces, and these old forces are so strong, it is better to simply create a \'land\' at sea. Land\'.
As a result, the concept of ship was formed and quickly put into practice.
Due to the scarcity of land, plants on land are also rare. The Odega people initially used metal ships, rather than transitioned from wooden ships like the earth.
The emergence of ships has led to a sharp increase in the demand for metals, which has led to the rapid development of mineral mining and exploration, and the germination of capital has been nurtured.
At the same time, due to the limited capacity of the hull, these ambitious people began to think about industry. If they use machinery to increase manpower, they can do more with fewer people.
This is how the industrial revolution of the Odega people formed wonderfully.
At that time, it should not have been caused by the industrial revolution, because the labor cost was very low and the mechanical cost was very expensive and inefficient. Therefore, ships carrying industry could only be owned by marine countries that built cities on the sea. Land countries with land islands disdain to own it, believing that it was a symbol of backwardness.
However, the fact is that the land country was slapped in the face fiercely. The machinery can be upgraded, but the people can\'t. The area of the island is ultimately be limited. The production capacity of the marine country soon surpassed that of the land country and became the center of the new world economy, trade and culture, and a large number of talents flocked to the ocean country.
The whole home planet was completely occupied by the Odega. They did not have a light weapon such as a musket, but they already had a warship cannon.
But people\'s hearts were greedy, and soon the Odega people noticed the sky and then thought - since land can be built on the ocean, why not on that day?
After years of experiments, they learned about air buoyancy and then built the first airship in history based on the characteristics of air buoyancy.
Although it can\'t fly high because of the low load...
However, with the progress of technology, the Odega people really relied on the idea of carrying the city by airships and moved cities to the sky.
And the Odega people in the sky can still keep in touch with the ground by relying on hot air balloons.
A new world pattern took shape, the center of world economy, trade and culture shifted to the sky, and marine countries and land countries became the same color.
Moreover, because the sky has natural strategic advantages over the surface, countries on both sea and land have to face their strategic disadvantages and are under pressure to unite with each other.
This is the land and sea country, and the forces in the sky are called the sky country, and the world of the Odega people tends to be bipolar.
In such a period, some Odega people thought that since a country can be built in heaven, can a country be built underground?
The establishment of the underground country has determined the emergence of the most important and stable three-polar pattern in the Odega civilization.
Almost 50,000 years later, the Odega civilization began to move towards the universe.
Greedy ambition prompted them to conquer the planets in the stellar system. They did so, and one cosmic country after another was established until the invasion of strong enemies...
When the explanation came here, the collector asked.
"Who is the strong enemy?"
"There is not enough information... I can\'t answer." The robot signal light flashed and then answered.
The collector thought for a moment and decided to ask in a different way.
"Who triggered the supernova explosion? The strong enemy of Odega civilization? Or did Odega civilization himself?
"After the war... fell into... absolutely unfavorable... situation... by civilization... voted... made... using... particle accelerators... to create... micro black holes... led to... supernova explosion.
"The robot stulted to reply.
Collectors think based on the information they have - it takes extremely high energy to create black holes, whether using particle accelerators or antimatter. After all, it is not a micro black hole that has the ability to destroy stars, but micro black holes that can devour stellar matter before self-evaporation. Only then can I have this ability.
This means that the original Odega civilization still has quite high technology and may even have antimatter, but it has not been generalized.
Such a civilization is forced by an unknown strong enemy to blow up its parent star... This is very worth pondering by collectors.
The robot continued to explain the past of Odega\'s civilization.
After detonating the mother star, there was only one cosmic ark in the entire Odega civilization, carrying 100 million people wandering in the universe.
This is the \'first generation\' in the robot\'s story.
The cosmic ark travels at 12% of the speed of light and takes about 600 years to carry the remaining Odega people to the distant target star.
"What are you going to do to the target star? Continue to blow up the stars?"
"Looking for... a new home."
The robot briefly explained to the collector and continued to talk.
When sailing in the universe, the technology of the Odega civilization cannot progress, because deep space voyage requires careful calculation of the mass of every gram, and every mass means a little consumed fuel. Therefore, the Odega civilization does not have such material resources for basic physics research, and basic science and technology is at a standstill. The previous state.
Theoretical knowledge, if there is no physical experiment to fulfill, the theory can only stay in theory. This is just a nice statement. The unpleasant point is the hypothesis that can be overthrown at any time.
The industrial shrinkage is very serious, because there is no place to use industry on the spacecraft, and the Odega people in the industrial field have become doless wanderers.
Unfortunately, the Odega civilization has not developed hibernation technology. They need to stay awake for 600 years and complete the transstellar voyage in the way of more than ten generations.
However, all this is not bad, because it was expected in advance that the captain of the cosmic ark would attract these workless people to the tertiary industry, that is, the entertainment industry, which ensures the normal operation of the internal order of the ark.
In the empty universe, entertainment is a very important pastime. The economy began to develop around the entertainment industry. Everything seems to be at ease, and people sing and dance.
But this is also the beginning of the road to the end. People are profit-seeking. Seeing that others are rich, they also want to become rich. With the change of generations, the Odega people\'s views on some things have gradually faded, such as maintenance workers, and they begin to be excluded, because the maintenance workers do not work is the \'privilege\' in the cosmic ark. Class.
These maintenance workers are to ensure the normal operation of the cosmic ark. But for generations, there has been no problem with the cosmic ark, which has led some people in the cosmic ark to think that these maintenance workers are for free and have been killed by them. Maintenance should be added to the entertainment industry to create value for the collective.
The main reason is the production of maintenance robots, which makes these maintenance workers lose value. After all, robots don\'t need to eat, but people need it.
After many operations, the last maintenance worker on the cosmic ark devoted himself to the entertainment industry, and the position of worker completely disappeared into the long river of history.
About 300 years later, no Odega people remember the importance of industry. All the paper knowledge was transcribed into the data disk, because it could save more space. People began to advocate entertainment first, and the comfortable cosmic ark became the cradle.
After that, they have designed an intelligent program that can be designed by themselves. According to the requirements, the program will directly give the mechanical design they want, completely fool-like operation, and generate it with one click.
In this way, these Odega people even liberated their minds and entertained purely for entertainment.
When arriving at the destination star, the Odega people encountered a nightmare. The destination star system is a binary system. Massive stars periodically release super-power electromagnetic pulses because they are too close to the red dwarf companion. Unfortunately, the original Odega civilization encountered a stellar electromagnetic pulse. Directly caused the whole cosmic ark to be directly paralyzed, electronic equipment burned, and robots lying together.
At this time, these machines need to be repaired manually, but the problem is that no Odega people will repair these centuries-old antiques...
