My Empire of Stars

Chapter 517: Garden of Eden

"What evidence do you have to prove that you are well-intentioned?" Zhang Jian signaled the ship-borne artificial intelligence with his eyes.

The ship-borne artificial intelligence understood and controlled all the weapons on the Ark to turn in the direction of the retro fleet.

Seeing the weapons turning around, the commander of the retro fleet chuckled disdainfully and said, "Don't bluff. The remaining energy of your spacecraft has long been consumed in the Wandering Wall. We know the remaining energy of your spacecraft very well."

"Why do you think you saw the flash here? That's just the lighthouse we guided you here."

Zhang Jian suddenly widened his eyes after hearing this. After a long time, the culprit who caused him to jump in hyperspace for decades was right in front of him.

"I know that what we did is very unkind, but we also want to ensure that there will be no threat to the spacecraft entering the Garden of Eden. We have to do this!"

"Only when the energy of your spacecraft is drained can we let you in with peace of mind." The commander wearing a top hat in the communication screen spread his hands helplessly.

"Garden of Eden?" Zhang Jian caught the key words in the man's mouth and asked.

"Let's talk while we walk." The commander waved his hand, and dozens of spaceships flew in front of the Ark and turned around gorgeously, aiming their tails at the "mushroom" cover of the Ark. Then dozens of tractor beams shot out from the tails of these spaceships and shot at the Ark.

The heavy Ark began to be dragged forward slowly by these spaceships. In order to prevent the power outage of the dormant cabin, Zhang Jian simply turned off all the thrusters of the Ark.

"Let's continue."

"Eden, although this word is called differently in different civilizations, the translation result is the same. This place is different from the outside world. It is an ideal world with freedom, equality and peace!"

"I will tell you the details when we arrive at the memorial hall of Eden. In a while, I will send a small spaceship to pick you up on my ship. Don't worry, we will help thaw the crew members who are dormant in your spaceship."

"We will see you later." After saying that, the commander hung up the communication, leaving Zhang Jian with a puzzled look.

Tens of minutes later, Zhang Jian boarded a small spaceship in the style of an ancient ferry and entered the flagship of the retro fleet opposite.

Like its extremely retro appearance, the interior decoration of this spaceship is also in accordance with the decoration of ancient times.

The wooden floor will make a creaking sound when stepped on, and the walls on both sides are made of moss-covered wooden boards, and the lighting in the corridor is a kerosene lamp-style chandeliers.

When Zhang Jian walked in the corridor of this spaceship, he even felt that he had traveled to the world of the retro game he had played before.

Along the way, Zhang Jian passed through dozens of isolation doors sprayed with wood grain paint and came to the bridge of the spaceship.

As he expected, the bridge of this warship was indeed retro, with a huge steering wheel standing in the center of the bridge. The only difference from the ancient sailing ship was that this steering wheel could move forward and backward and up and down.

"Welcome, welcome." At this time, the commander of the retro fleet put down the steering wheel in his hand and turned to greet him.

"First meeting, please call me Baron Allen." Allen, the commander of the retro fleet, took off his hat and bowed deeply.

Seeing this, Zhang Jian also bowed hurriedly.

"Why do all your warships look like this?" Zhang Jian took this opportunity to ask his doubts.

"This is just our hobby. The crew members of this fleet are all people who have a love for sailing."

"In addition to our fleet, there are also fleets composed of warships from the World War II period on Earth, and fleets shaped like spaceships in Star Wars."

"The appearance of these fleets depends entirely on ourselves." Allen patted the steering wheel beside him and said.

"Earth? Why do you know the history of Earth?" As a descendant of Earth people, Zhang Jian is very sensitive to the words Earth and World War II.

"Haha, you don't know this. About a hundred years ago, a young man from Earth came to our Garden of Eden and used the history of his home planet to create a holographic game: Earth Civilization. This game has swept our entire Garden of Eden. For example, I am a fan of the Earth Age of Discovery, and the appearance of my fleet is also a retro sailboat shape." Allen pulled Zhang Jian's arm and came to a terminal in the bridge. The terminal was playing the screen of the game Earth Civilization.

"This." Zhang Jian was speechless. He never expected to meet fellow countrymen from Earth in this mysterious place, and witnessed that Earth culture has swept this place called the Garden of Eden.

"We are here. This is the memorial hall of the Garden of Eden. All the important things that have happened since the establishment of the Garden of Eden are recorded in it. I will take you to see it." Allen said as he pushed the rudder forward. The spaceship rushed from the sky into a pyramid-shaped building with a huge door open below.

After the spaceship stopped steadily, Allen took Zhang Jian off the spaceship and entered the hall of the memorial hall.

The width and height of the hall are about 20 meters, but the length is endless. On the walls on both sides are murals carved from metal, and there are a lot of unknown line images on these murals.

"These murals have been carved since the Garden of Eden was built. They are all made of a metal called Kosfu. This metal is very hard and can be preserved for hundreds of millions of years without decay. It is an excellent material for preserving records."

"And the pattern composed of those stripes is a detailed explanation of what these murals describe, but a special compression method is used to compress the video into an image."

"We can directly read the information in it by scanning the terminal over this image." Allen pointed the terminal in his hand at the first mural.

A video began to play on the terminal in his hand:

Eight hundred thousand years ago, in a civilization called Morning Star that dominated the Milky Way, a genius scientist who was rare in ten thousand years appeared.

This scientist was called Bodhisattva, which means creator.

At the age of twenty, this scientist completed all the courses in the highest institution of the Morning Star Civilization, and at the age of thirty, he became a senior researcher at the Academy of Sciences of the Morning Star Civilization.

But

One day, Bodhisattva invented a technology that can obtain energy from the void. As soon as this technology was invented, it was taken away by his boss and reported to the country, and received huge rewards and great honors.

(The Garden of Eden here refers to a beautiful world in a broad sense, so it is entirely possible that it has the same name in various civilizations.)
