v4 Chapter 537: The first contact with the star beast civilization (four more)
What is communication?
It is the process in which one party sends out a signal and the other party receives the signal.
Any sense organ is inseparable from the signal.
Just like human language, someone needs to send out sound waves through the vibration of the vocal cords, and another person receives the sound waves through the cochlea, and then analyzes the meaning of the sound waves through the brain to understand what the other person is saying.
The human language system communicates through voice.
The communication method of the brain beast in the star beast is also a wave, but it is not a sound wave, but an electromagnetic wave.
Compared with sound waves, electromagnetic waves travel farther and have stronger penetrating power.
This is actually the same as the principle of wireless signals invented by humans.
The brain beast is a signal transmitter, and the other star beasts are the receivers.
However, the received electromagnetic wave signal has no meaning in itself, and it needs to be analyzed by the brain to understand it.
The star beast is born with the ability to analyze the electromagnetic wave of the brain beast, so there is no obstacle to the communication between the brain beast and the star beast.
Humans can also receive electromagnetic waves emitted by brain beasts through machines, but the received electromagnetic waves are like a piece of code. If there is no code book for analysis, humans cannot understand the meaning.
Of course, even if human beings cannot analyze the meaning of the electromagnetic wave of the brain beast at the beginning, they can still analyze and decipher the electromagnetic wave. All it takes is a matter of time.
There is not much research on the electromagnetic wave of brain beasts, because it is difficult to see brain beasts under normal circumstances.
Even under very special circumstances, if you catch the brain beast, you will only get the brain beast's corpse.
Therefore, so far, humans have not been able to decipher the meaning of the electromagnetic wave of the brain beast, and can only start to analyze and decipher it now.
The work of deciphering electromagnetic waves requires tremendous computing power, and it cannot be done by one or two machines.
The machines brought by scientific research teams from various countries are actually only electromagnetic wave receivers.
After receiving the electromagnetic wave signals of the brain beast, these electromagnetic wave signals will be transmitted to the supercomputers of various countries, and then the supercomputers will decode it.
Among the countries that rushed over to try to contact the brain beast, in addition to the six members of the Planetary Defense Council, there are five other countries, all of which are more advanced in science and technology and military.
The sixteen low-light flagella floating on the brain beast emit electromagnetic signals like an antenna.
Countries receive signals through instruments and then analyze them.
The students of the military scientific research class watched this direct contact between humans and star beast civilization through the scenes shot on the sky thirty miles away.
In the picture, more than a dozen ships are separated by a kilometer, surrounding the brain beast.
There was no movement from either side, no attack, nor any unusual behavior.
And this situation has continued for several hours without any movement.
Niu Dazhi pointed to the seemingly still picture, and asked boringly, "What is this for?"
"Does this have to be asked? Of course it is to receive the electromagnetic wave signal from the brain beast." Eve squinted at him and answered his question.
"What happened then?" the beef **** continued.
"Of course it is sent to supercomputers around the world, and then deciphers the electromagnetic wave signal." Eve replied a little impatiently.
"How long will you stay like this?"
"This is hard to say, it depends on when the supercomputer can decode the electromagnetic signal of the brain beast."
"so boring."
"You shouldn't come over if you know it's boring."
"I'm going to take a nap, remember to call me if you start a fight." The beef **** yawned, and they really found a place, relying on it to start snoring.
"I can't stand this guy." Eve was speechless.
"How is the deciphering progress of the supercomputer?" Fang Yuan looked at Zhao Anya beside him.
"I have asked the scientific research team on the supercomputer just now. The deciphering is progressing smoothly. Supercomputers in various countries divide the labor to decipher and it will take about two or three hours to complete." Zhao Anya replied.
"The electromagnetic wave signal, let it out and have a look." Fang Yuan said.
"Okay." Eve swiped the control panel and displayed the electromagnetic signal on the big screen.
A horizontal and vertical coordinate graph appeared on the big screen with a string of electromagnetic wave signals floating up and down.
"According to the news sent by the scientific research team below, there is only one set of electromagnetic wave signals received, and the brain beast keeps repeating this electromagnetic wave signal." Eve explained.
Fang Yuan stared at the electromagnetic wave signal on the screen and couldn't see anything.
This is normal. Before a machine can decipher it, all humans can see is a series of electromagnetic waves, and they can't see any meaning in it.
Just like Morse code, if you don’t understand Morse code and you see Morse code, you can only tell that it is a string of 1s and 0s, and you don’t understand what this ship string represents.
...
After waiting for about two and a half hours, a preliminary deciphering result came from the light of Taihu Lake.
By deciphering the results, the meaning of this series of electromagnetic signals was quickly obtained.
"According to the deciphering result, the electromagnetic wave signal sent by the brain beast is saying...Let us stop scientific and technological research. If we want to continue to study technology, we need to become their subsidiary civilization and accept their rule." Eve deciphered Read out the content.
"These star beasts are too arrogant." Fang Yuan twitched the corner of his mouth after hearing the deciphering result, feeling a little funny.
"What does it mean to be their affiliated civilization?" The beef **** jumped up without knowing when they came over and asked.
"To put it plainly, it means to colonize. The Star Beast wants to colonize us." Fang Yuan explained.
"Isn't that a slave to the star beast?" The beef ball understood what it meant.
"Yes, Star Beast means that. Actually, I can't figure it out. Why do they want to colonize us?" Fang Yuan felt a little ridiculous about the request made by Star Beast.
Obviously, the cutting-edge scientific and technological projects that mankind is carrying out have made the star beast civilization feel threatened.
This suffices to show that the Star Beast civilization fears that humans will continue to grow stronger.
Under this circumstance, this star beast civilization still wants to make colonization requirements.
"What would happen if we were colonized? Can we pretend to be colonized and ask us to research science and technology, and then backhand them to abolish them!" The beef **** came up with a very direct way.
"Impossible. Since the star beasts propose to colonize our humans, they must have a way to restrain humans. If they really agree, then the scientific research laboratory may have to move to the star beast world. In short, the star beast civilization proposed It is impossible for humans to agree to this request," Fang Yuan said.
"If you don't agree, what will happen?" The beef **** questioned again.
"It may evolve from a local conflict to a full-scale war. However, after deciphering the brain beast's electromagnetic signal, you can communicate with the brain beast, and perhaps you can get more information about the star beast civilization." Fang Yuan said.
