Chapter 1615 The History of Poetry (Part 2)
There is no doubt that this is a kind of harm and will have an impact on two people. It is manifested as a shortening of lifespan and the arrival of aging. In short, the Ipsilons breed offspring at the premise of sacrificing themselves. Therefore, even if this group develops later, it can freely travel through the universe and has many resources, but the size of the group does not expand like humans.
From the perspective of human beings, it may be a terrible thing to think that the Ipsilons must breed their offspring at the cost of reducing their lives, but for the Ipsilons, this is not a terrible thing, it is a part of their lives...
In the Tang Fang's view, this is just like the result of the reproduction of mantis, which is that male mantis becomes the food for female mantis. It seems cruel, but in fact, it is just a manifestation of the biodiversity of nature.
Speaking of which, the social culture of the Ypsilon people has a certain religious color, but their belief is not God or Buddha, but rather gives life and a brilliant holy land.
The Ipsilong people firmly believe that after their death, the Ipsilong runes will return to the holy realm, which can be said to be the return of their souls. This is not a mysterious myth, but a sufficient evidence.
They were born from the Holy Land and ended in the Holy Land. This is a very perfect reincarnation.
Besides, the Alantes, who lost the favor of Yuanchu energy, did not have the lifespan of the Ipsilongs, nor did the Ipsilong runes, nor did they evolve a very special way of reproduction. But even so, it is not difficult to live for two or three thousand years with their physical fitness.
There is an old saying in human society: adversity makes people grow, and comfort makes people slack off. The Ipsilons are inherently superior, but they are not much higher than the Alantes in terms of technological development, and at most they are on the front line of victory.
Before entering the stage of space civilization, there was a lot of exchange between the brother civilizations of these two planets. So later, when they first entered the stage of space civilization, the society, culture, production and life of the two major ethnic groups could naturally be integrated.
This does not mean that the integration process is quite perfect, but that differences and conflicts will not create actual resistance to the integration process of the two ethnic groups.
Although both sides were born under the influence of Yuanchu energy and could be said to be a fraternal race, from the perspective of social trends, the status of the Ipsilon people is still higher.
In this way, the Ipsilons and the Alantes spent a long honeymoon period. As an integrated society, they advanced to the stage of space civilization.
Tang Fang knew very well that the Erants and the Ipsilons eventually moved from harmony to opposition, and then torn and war. The source of the contradiction was a special living body discovered by the Ipsilons during the exploration of external galaxies.
It is a species with a tree shape that cannot move and cannot walk, but has a magical position that can help them share consciousness. In other words, these tree-shaped living organisms are in the fourth density state.
At that time, the Ipsilons had not yet created a system to use dark energy to share their spiritual feelings, and they were very interested in tree-shaped living bodies.
After much effort, the expedition brought the tree-shaped living organisms back to the parent star Serepas for various research.
At that time, there were voices of opposition in society, believing that although tree-shaped living organisms cannot move and cannot express themselves, their special way of spiritual communication means that tree-shaped living organisms are intelligent creatures and should respect their existence rather than treat them as experimental subjects.
Just as the parliament consisting of the Alantra and the Ipsilons had a constant debate over how to treat tree-shaped living organisms, the previously quite peaceful Sanctuary suddenly ran away, creating an energy storm in the planet's atmosphere.
Fortunately, this energy storm caused almost no casualties. However, those tree-shaped living organisms disappeared while the storm environment was gone and left the control of the Ipsilons.
After the sky returned to its bright sun, the sacred realm also reorganized its posture and became the same as before.
However, as time went by, the Ipsilons were horrified to find that the power of the sacred realm was weakening, and the most intuitive manifestation was that the clan's lifespan became shorter and the difficulty of reproduction increased.
Through multiple investigations and research, scientists concluded that the reason for this phenomenon is probably related to the energy storm that year and tree-shaped living things.
In the next exploratory hunting, they determined this speculation because they saw the tree-shaped living beings again, they had changed their form, from inmovable black and gray dead wood to special forms that can move in space, and can help their companions on the planet evolve... into special forms that are the same as them.
There is no doubt that these things stole the energy of the Sanctuary and caused irreparable damage to the system of Serepas.
The Ipsilons were very angry and launched a hunt for tree-shaped life forms throughout the universe.
You should know that at that time it was the heyday of the Ipsilon civilization. Those tree-shaped living organisms and the special forms of living organisms evolved were either destroyed or captured, and became research samples of the Ipsilon people.
The Ipsilons tried to find a way to restore the energy level of the sanctuary by studying the evolutionary process of tree-shaped living bodies to special forms of living bodies. However, hope is beautiful, reality is cruel. They spent a long time and a large amount of resources, but they could not find a solution to the problem. In this case, the tribe members continued to die, and the tribe scale showed uncontrollable shrinkage.
This panic that permeates the entire society makes the Ipsilons lose their original positive characteristics such as fraternity, kindness, optimism, gentleness, etc., and become impatient, utilitarian, selfish, hatred, and intolerable.
The social contradictions caused by the loss of energy in the sanctuary have evolved from the beginning to the slaughter of tree-shaped living bodies and special forms of living bodies evolved, or enslaved them into energy sources of spacecraft to use this special revenge, which gradually led to the outbreak of internal conflicts among the Ipsilon people.
Just like the various war scenes that Leana showed for Claya in the Holy Temple, the internal struggle tragedy, the Ipsilons of different tribes were increasingly disagreeing on issues such as the competition for the energy of the sanctuary, the reproduction resources of races, the attitude towards the Alantes, etc., and conflicts continued to break out. Although it was less than the level of war, internal friction was getting worse and worse.
It was in this situation that the accumulated emotional and interests hurt made the Alantes unable to tolerate the fallen Ipsilons managing the sanctuary and then launched an offensive against Serepas.
He has seen what happened next in Leana's memoir.
The Ipsilons fled from Serepas and came to the Milky Way after a long journey. They were harboring hatred and fighting spirit and determined to take back their homes from the Alantes. They stopped in the lost place and began to vigorously develop science and technology to accumulate strength for the counterattack of Serepas.
But just like the situation of another Ipsilon fleet that settled in the solar system, the two key defects of rapidly deteriorating physical and mental conditions, as well as the loss of the ability to reproduce, have become the primary issues that restrict social development.
Before the Alantes launched an offensive against Serepas, some of the senior officials opposed it and were ready to notify the Ipsilons in advance to prepare for defense.
The name of this Elant high priest is Nolan Cosaltada. He has a high prestige in both the Elant society and the Ipsilon society, and is committed to further promoting the integration of the culture and society of the two tribes. What he least wants to see is the division between the two tribes and even turning against each other.
Unfortunately, he failed to send the news and was under house arrest by the pro-war faction.
After the war broke out, the Ipsilons lost a lot, and the remnants fled to "overseas". Nolan Cosaltada was disappointed with the actions of his tribe. After being released, he left Alan Star and disappeared.
Just when the Ipsilons were trapped in physical defects and were in crisis of destruction, Nolan Cosaltada appeared before them and brought a new technology that could continue the Ipsilons' lives.
Yes, it is the psychic flame technology that is enough to carry the Ipsilon runes.
This particular property of quantum computer originated from the study of "thieves" (special form of life forms evolved into tree-shaped life forms).
The souls of the Ipsi Dragon can be preserved in psychic flames and can more efficiently manipulate mechanical bodies and other electronic devices, such as statue guards.
Because this technology comes from the "thief", its unique structure can slow down the decay of the Ipsilong runes. As for the Ipsilong's body, it can freeze. When the dispute between the Ipsilong and the Alante people is resolved in the future, and return to the place where the light irradiates in the holy realm can be liberated and return to the original source.
First, the Ipsilons in the Lost Land are already in a genocide crisis. Second, although Nolan Cosaltada was an Alante, he was a staunch pacifist, recognized by both races, and the most staunch opponents of the Alantes' war against the Ipsilons. Third, early experiments prove that the plan is feasible.
In this case, the vast majority of the Ipsilons in the Lost Land accepted the plan, freezing their original bodies, turning them into statue guards, or directly becoming the control center of large facilities.
After learning about this part of the content, Tang Fang finally understood the puzzled question before - why there were no corpses of the Ipsilon man in the ruins of the Lost Land, only one broken statue guarding.
In addition, no wonder the Ipsilons who stayed in the solar system were initially repelled by the plan of retaining the mind and replacing the body, believing that the Ipsilon scientist who led the experiment had private contact with the guy in the Lost Land.
The Ipsilons in the Lost Land have no worries after obtaining this technology. The technology is developing rapidly, but to defeat the Alantes, they still need more powerful weapons... Affected by the experience of being driven out of their homes, most Ipsilons do not believe that they can resolve disputes through peaceful means, even if Nolan Cosaltada runs through it.
They found that the heterodimensional energy used to build transmission channels in "soul transfer surgery" can directly collapse the space-time structure within the target range through the transformation increase. At the same energy level, the damage effect is much stronger than that of existing weapons.
Although Nolan Cosaltada tried his best to stop it, the Ipsilons, whose hearts were blinded by hatred, started the research process, began to extract this special energy in large quantities, and gradually developed the corresponding weapon system.
Nolan Cosaltada was placed under house arrest for a period of time, and then fled the lost land with the help of the conscientious Ipsilons.
After a while, he returned to Ailan Star and told his compatriots about this.
Tang Fang can already guess what happened next.
The Ipsilons and the Alantes fought a great battle in the lost land, but the result of the war was that there was no winner. The device used by the Ipsilon civilization center to extract energy from the different dimensions went wild, tearing a crack between the current dimension and the different dimensions, creating a huge vortex of time and space. The chaotic energy swallowed at a speed that exceeded the speed of light, distorting the diameter of hundreds of light-years, completely destroying the Ipsilons' homeland.
The Garden of Eden... became a lost ground.
If things develop to this point, it will be just a tragedy of civilization. However, the real situation is a cosmic crisis.
The Ipsilons were grateful for Nolan Cosaltada's help to them, and the Alantes respected him as the high priest. They did not know that the philosopher who had been missing for a long time and returned to their sight... had long been corrupted by evil forces and became a doomsday apostle.
When Nolan Cosaltada left Alan Star, it was mainly because she was dissatisfied with the status quo and disappointed with her tribe. She chose not to pay attention to those sad things, seek truth, explore, and transcend.
He tried to leave this universe, and after many efforts, he successfully arrived at a dreamlike dimensional space, losing consciousness during the long drift.
When he woke up, he had returned to the current universe. Nothing changed, except for the evil consciousness that occupied his body... In Tang Fang's view, this seemed to be like the experience of Claya being occupied by the Queen of Blades.
What Nolan Cosaltada did next is to open the dimensional channel.
He used the hatred of the Ipsilons to induce them to use the T-energy stones brought out when they fled Serepas, as well as the massive zero-element isotope crystals collected in the process of rebuilding their homes to extract the energy of the alien dimension, and eventually trigger a cosmic collision and open a channel to the alien dimension where the evil consciousness is located.
After the Battle of Lost Lands, Nolan Cosaltada took his followers to contain the corpses of the Alantra on the battlefield and the corpses of the Ipsilon who did not perform the separation procedure of the spirit and flesh, and transferred them to the place where the Ipsilon hibernating tribesmen.
Tang Fang is not unfamiliar with this place because he has been to the West Tower Quadrant many times.
He once saw a large number of empty crystal hives in the core of the Black Ball, which was obviously not a warehouse for Ipsilon isotopes. Now, he knows what that is for - the dormant pod prepared by the Ipsilon people for their shells.
