Chapter 536: Cosmic Drift Bottle

! ! !

When the sound sounded, everyone couldn't help looking around. The reverberation-like sound made it difficult to tell the direction, but everyone quickly reacted and set their eyes on the rhombus crystal.

There was nothing else that could say such a thing except it.

At this time, the rhombus crystal looked crystal clear, like a fine work of art, and like a piece of warm jade. The two characteristics appeared on it, making people feel very comfortable.

The rhombus crystal actually spoke, and it spoke actively.

This contrast was beyond everyone's expectations, because from the moment the rhombus crystal appeared to the process of it coming to the Tianqin, it gave people a very advanced feeling, a majestic image of a high-level civilization.

In people's impression, such an image is often disdainful of weak civilizations, or even "destroy you, what does it have to do with you!", but this rhombus crystal actually spoke actively, and even humans didn't ask it questions.

This feeling is like one day a person spoke ant language to a group of ants on the roadside. Of course, humans play the role of ants here.

"Are you talking? You can speak our language. We are human civilization. I am Yue Yuan, the leader of human civilization. Who are you?" Yue Yuan, who was standing at the front of the crowd and closest to the diamond crystal, spoke. Although it was most likely the crystal that was talking, he still spoke to confirm.

With more experience, he didn't think it was strange that a diamond crystal could talk. Yue Yuan now suspected that the thing didn't say anything just now, maybe it was reading human language information.

Although I don't know how it read, the fact is that it did speak in human language just now.

"Yes, it's me who is talking. I'm not anyone. I'm just a creator's information storage left in the Milky Way." The voice quickly answered.

Just like before, it echoed in the Tianqin command center, like the echo of the gods' speech, but there was no arrogance of a high-level civilization, at least that's how Yue Yuan felt.

"Creator? Is it a civilization? Why did you come to our human civilization flagship?" said a scientist who had been patient for a long time.

"No, it's my creator. For you new generation civilizations, my creator is a pioneer. As for me, I seem to be called a drifting bottle in your human civilization." The voice of the diamond crystal paused, and then sounded: "It's not that I came to your spaceship, but that you entered my range and awakened my mechanism."

New generation civilization? !

Pioneer? What pioneer?

Drifting bottle?

Enter my range?

Awaken my mechanism?

Everyone was a little confused, so they whispered.

"You seem to be a group technological civilization." The diamond crystal seemed to hear everyone's whispers.

"Yes, we are a group technological civilization. Hearing you say that, is there anything in this universe that is not a technological civilization?" Yue Yuan was very curious about this question, because this expression of group technological civilization was not the first time he heard it, and the awakener had said it before.

He was very curious, is there any other form of civilization in this universe besides technological civilization?

"Of course, because the universe is so mysterious." The diamond crystal said slowly, but it was just one sentence, and it did not say what form of civilization it was.

The diamond crystal continued, "You should be the honorific of your human civilization. I accept this title because you are so lucky. You are the first civilization in the new generation to trigger my mechanism."

Yue Yuan felt that perhaps it was because he did not ask specifically.

Compared to other forms of civilization, at this time, he, including all the scientists and scholars present, were more concerned about what the diamond crystal said just now.

After a few short conversations, everyone now has an initial impression of the diamond crystal.

Called a drift bottle. Well, a universe drift bottle, the core may be an intelligent body, or it may be that its creator is speaking in a super-distance communication way.

It seems to be quite easy to talk to, at least now no one can feel any malice.

At this time, Yue Yuan, who felt the enthusiastic eyes of the crowd, asked: "You said 'pioneers, drifting bottles, entering my range, awakening my mechanism, and new generation civilization', these words we don't understand very well, can you tell us what they are specifically?"

After a pause, Yue Yuan organized his words, as if he was considering how to express it better. He considered: "And you said your creator, please forgive us for being presumptuous, are you an intelligent being?"

Hearing Yue Yuan say this, a group of scientists did not think there was anything wrong, but as if they had asked what they had in mind, they all looked at the diamond crystal with expectation, looking forward to its answer.

"You have a lot of questions, but I understand. Just don't worry, from the moment you trigger my mechanism, I will tell you these questions even if you don't ask. Although some things are too early for you, it doesn't matter, after all, which civilization doesn't become stronger step by step from weak?"

When the diamond crystal answered, there was no other expression on its surface, it was still crystal clear and warm like jade. Is this the state it said after triggering its mechanism?

The people present did not see any of its vocal organs, nor did they know how it made sounds, because the sound did not come from the Tianqin's loudspeaker, but more like it came from any space in the command center.

The voice representing the diamond crystal continued to sound: "Then first of all, to answer your questions about my cognition, I am a drifting bottle, but I am not an artificial intelligence-oriented self-consciousness. When I say "I" as a self-introduction, I am a replicated life consciousness. It is the consciousness that I voluntarily stayed after my civilization left the Milky Way. Of course, I agree with it.

Accepting your title of "you" is my acceptance of the consciousness of that "I". I say this, and you as intelligent beings should understand what I mean."

"So you are a life?" asked a straightforward scientist.

"That depends on how you define life. You are still too weak. Maybe in your eyes, I am a life, but in the definition of our civilization, I am not a real life, and of course I am not a low-level thing like strong artificial intelligence. Well, you are curious about why I appeared on your spaceship, and you will understand the form of my existence when you reach the fifth level of civilization."
