Chapter 135: Deeper Despair



Throughout the history of human development, the controversy over the Golden Record has never ceased.

Many people have regretted this presumptuous and ignorant act.

We revealed too much information about ourselves in the Golden Record.

Not only did we foolishly introduce humans, but we also introduced the Earth.

It was like two armies fighting, one side was a modern army with airplanes and cannons, and the other side was primitive humans with wooden guns and stone clubs. The stupid primitive humans obediently presented the topographic map of their home nest and the distribution map of tribes.

If there was a choice, humans might have given up or even tried to retrieve the two spacecrafts, Voyager 1 and 2.

Unfortunately, there is no medicine for regret in the world.

In order to make Voyager 1 fly further, humans also ignited the track correction thruster (TCM) that had been dormant for 37 years on November 28, 2017, and tested its ability to use 10 millisecond pulses to locate the spacecraft.

Since 2025, when Voyager 2 and Voyager 1 ran out of energy and lost contact, it is almost impossible for humans to recover the two spacecraft. Since then

, the fate of mankind has been completely handed over to the universe.

We can only hope that the universe will treat us well.

But just as humans are ruthless to endangered animals on Earth, the answer of the universe is equally cold and ruthless, but it conforms to the laws of nature.

Good resources should belong to stronger civilizations.

What's more, this weak civilization is so stupid.

At this moment, Chen Feng is personally and deeply experiencing how this stupidity is used by others.

There is no rhetoric that can describe the feeling in his heart now.

It is absurd and sad.

He suddenly felt very ridiculous.

Human beings were born by chance and coincidence gifted by the universe. It took millions of years to survive the era of eating blood and eating raw meat, and finally had their own brilliant civilization and long history.

Human beings have defeated natural disasters, selfishness, man-made disasters, and viruses, but lost to accidental acts of ignorance, and completely lost the qualification to exist.

The music on the golden record was melodious.

But to Chen Feng, it sounded like the sickle of the god of death scraping across the concrete floor.

As an incompetent music porter with no artistic talent, Chen Feng had never heard of these classical music representing different cultures.

But this did not prevent him from appreciating music.

Each piece of music represents a culture and mode of thinking, and is a true classic handed down from generation to generation.

For example, Bach's "First Movement of the Second Brandenburg Concerto in F Major", Mozart's "Die Zauberfl?te" (The Magic Flute), Melancholy Blues, Beethoven's "Fifth Symphony First Movement", and Boya's Guqin piece "Flowing Water".

Chen Feng had never heard of these classical music before. After all, he could not copy them, so it would be useless to listen to them.

But he knew without thinking that these songs should be very beautiful and pleasant to the ear.

But at this time, he felt particularly distorted.

The music was certainly pleasant, but the precise music appreciation and restoration ability deep in his heart, which had been honed through thousands of trials, made him subconsciously feel creepy. It seemed

that something was wrong.

No, nothing was wrong.

Something had been added to the music.

This ingredient seemed to be an almost undetectable background sound, making the originally beautiful music seem a little gloomy and particularly uncomfortable, like fingernails scratching frosted glass.

This made the listeners' scalps numb and their teeth clenched.

What really penetrated people's minds was the radiation waves that Linbu mentioned, which could not be heard by human ears alone.

It was hidden silently, but it was everywhere.

What Chen Feng heard now was the conversion of radiation waves into sound waves that humans could hear and distinguish.

In fact, this was equivalent to amplifying the signal strength countless times, but Chen Feng was not controlled.

He did not feel that his emotions were suppressed, but he only hated this kind of sound extremely.

He was resisting both psychologically and physiologically, which prevented him from being silently tricked like others.

Although Chen Feng persisted in pain, he had no way out.

After paying such a huge price, dying so many times, and finally seeing the dawn of hope after a long journey of thousands of miles, how could he give up easily?

He endured the discomfort and tried to concentrate his mind to force himself to remember every detail of the sound, especially the background sound.

Gradually, he discovered a pattern.

The background sound is not static, but changes along a certain strange rhythm and tempo.

If he tries to actively block the background sound in his mind, the uncomfortable feeling will subside a lot.

The background sound seems to be the main body that makes the thought penetration effective. The

loud original music is just a cover, or a vehicle that allows the power of penetration to bypass the human brain's defense, just like the sugar coating on the surface of an extremely bitter pill, or the protein shell used by the virus to disguise as ordinary protein that can be absorbed by human cells.

Unknowingly, ninety minutes have passed.

9:33 am on October 27, 3020 AD.

The music in Chen Feng's ears completed a cycle and started playing from the first song again.

Chen Feng's preliminary analysis of the "background sound" has also been completed.

This is perhaps the most complex, yet most complete and bizarre music that Chen Feng has ever heard.

This "piece of music" is 90 minutes long, and the rhythm seems simple, but there is no repetition.

The large range of changes in its frequency range and the delicate transition process are completely beyond the cognition of Chen Feng, a "top musician".

Its changes are not based on human pitch. There is no obvious key up and down, or even no key at all, and no pitch or low pitch of abcde.

Its frequency changes during progression and change cannot be accurately described by a specific number of Hertz.

If it must be measured in Hertz.

Take a certain second as the time node. Before this second, the frequency is 255hz, and after this second, the frequency is 257hz.

The process of change is to divide one second into infinite moments. In these infinite moments, the frequency changes infinitely, and progresses infinitely many times with infinitely many small units after the decimal point.

From a point-to-point perspective, it is simply 255hz to 257hz, but if you want to explore its details, it is simply impossible to estimate.

In this simple piece of music, there is too much infinity.

The headphones worn by Chen Feng cannot accurately express such a huge amount of information. It is a simple interpretation after simplifying the same infinity times. But fortunately, as a human being, Chen Feng has infinite imagination. He is also a musician, so even if he can't hear such a large amount of information in his ears, he can conceive and fill it in his mind.

In addition, the timbre is also something Chen Feng has never come into contact with.

This seems to be a sound from nature, but there is no reference object, as if all the sounds are condensed and integrated together.

Now let Chen Feng play it, Chen Feng can't do it, he can't even write the music score.

Chen Feng's real gain is that he captured the source of this long movement.

Its internal rhythm changes are indeed derived from all the music in "Sounds of the Earth".

It is not a simple linear superposition, but every moment contains all the characteristics of twenty-seven classical music.

Its rhythm covers the humanistic thinking of the earthlings, and its sound quality covers the rhythm of the earth's nature. Combined together, it forms this movement of absolute control, which can resonate with the brain that dominates human thinking in an extremely covert way.

Yes, this song captures the part of all classical songs that is used to control people's hearts.

Music has two sides, one of which can be named "control".

The definition of control is to use music to manipulate a person's emotions and even thoughts from the outside.

For example, when a depressed person hears a cheerful piece of music, he will still smile subconsciously.

When a person who was originally laughing suddenly hears a sad and heartbreaking piece of music, his eyes will still be slightly moist.

This is the "control" side of music.

It is not strange to control a person through music.

As early as the early 21st century, modern psychology research has clearly concluded that it is not impossible to use music to achieve psychological suggestion and manipulate people to do things.

For example, the warmongering maniac Xi who started the Second World War reached the pinnacle of his use of classical music.

While he was raising his butcher knife, he promoted classical music among his people, using music to whitewash his atrocities, making people forget his cruelty and only remember his renaissance.

The suspenseful "Burning Song" written by American writer Tess Gleason tells such a story.

After hearing the violin concerto from a hundred years ago, the heroine's daughter repeatedly hurt the heroine.

Although the story is made up, it is well-founded in psychological research.

This "Song of the Other World" given to mankind by the invaders is the side of all the classical music in "Sounds of the Earth" that tends to control, and it has been brought to the peak.

Now that the root cause has been found, Chen Feng can start to think about how to deal with it.

At this moment, he was shocked and turned his head to look forward.

There was still nothing there.

He intuitively felt that some kind of change was happening.

Chen Feng's azure star suddenly transformed into a sniper form, and a neutron bullet was fired.

The bullet still decomposed into elementary particles less than a meter away from his side.

To the naked eye, it looked exactly the same as before, but in his deep perception, this half-meter distance seemed extremely far away.

Chen Feng's helmet synchronized the particle dispersion mist calculated by the spacecraft, and the mist flew away from his eyes at an incredible speed.

Perhaps in an instant, it crossed a light year, leaving only a long trace of energy radiation in the empty universe.

Chen Feng heard Ou Qinglan's shouting in the spaceship.

"The invader barrier is retreating rapidly. No, our space is being stretched!"

Chen Feng didn't understand what Ou Qinglan was saying.

Wasn't he fine?

How could the empty space be stretched?

"No, it's the space of the solar system that is returning to what it should be. In the past five hundred years, our entire solar system has been constantly compressed by the invader barrier!"

"What?"

Three minutes later.

Chen Feng saw a bright light near the earth in the distance.

Millions of fleets were reduced to ashes in an instant.

Chen Feng looked at the time on his helmet.

On October 27, 3020, at 9:49 a.m.,

he realized something was wrong.

The distance between him and the Earth at this time should be close to two light years.

The exact time of the explosion should be 9:48 a.m.,

so he should not be able to see the light of the explosion until two years later.

But he saw it in just one minute.

Otherwise, the speed of light was accelerated, and it crossed the distance of two light years in an instant.

Or maybe it was the space being stretched that shortened the time for the light to reach his eyes.

Chen Feng also thought of one thing, a strange situation that he should have been aware of but had completely overlooked unconsciously.

The radius of the generalized gravitational field of the solar system is 2 light years, almost bordering on Proxima Centauri.

If we have reached the edge of the solar system, then we should have reached the Proxima Centauri galaxy.

But no, Proxima Centauri is still at the other end of the distant starry sky.

In addition, the maximum flight speed of a super-heavy spaceship is one-tenth the speed of light.

Starting from the earth, how is it possible to reach the edge of the solar system, that is, next to the invader barrier, within a month?

But they did it, and were completely unaware of this obvious paradox.

The shield of the invader barrier has been compressing the solar system, and the closer to the sun, the lower the compression ratio.

And this compression only applies to the space within the gravitational field of the solar system, and cleverly avoids humans and all human creations.

Because the background rules of the universe were quietly tampered with by the invaders, humans have cognitive disorders and their understanding of space is completely messed up.

At this moment, a buzzing sound was faintly heard in the universe.

Chen Feng's body trembled slightly.

He saw that in front of him, the huge spherical aircraft that he once regarded as a nightmare appeared again.

This thing suddenly appeared out of nowhere in an extremely abrupt manner, almost as big as the moon, which brought him a huge shock.

Chen Feng took a deep breath, and with full power in the azure starry sky, he rushed straight forward.

In fact, he could escape, but he thought there was no point in running away.

Even if he succeeded in escaping, he would be the only one left in the universe, so what?

He never wanted revenge.

...

"Hu! Hu! Hu! Hu!"

He woke up.

He sat on the bed with his hands on his knees, his eyes scattered and empty.

His mind was still digesting the large amount of information he had just captured.

He couldn't help but feel a little sad.

So strong.

He was about to find a way to crack the psychological infiltration.

But why was he getting more and more desperate?

Facing such an enemy is like peeling an onion.

Every time I think I can see the essence by peeling off a layer of skin, I suddenly find that the other layer below is even more pungent and makes me cry, and I don’t know when it will end.

The invader barrier can even compress space, and tamper with the rules of the universe and human cognition of the universe from the bottom.

What level of technology do the invaders possess!

To deal with the other party is like playing chess with someone on someone else’s Go board.

If the main battlefield is a thousand years in the future, how can I defeat others in the rules tampered by others?

How is this possible?

Bang bang bang!

There was a knock on the door.

Chen Feng looked at the time again.

It was already nine o'clock in the morning.

It felt like only a short while had passed, but actually three hours had been stolen.

He shook his head violently.

No, I'm back now, I have to sober up as soon as possible, my concept of time is messed up.

He thought he was ridiculous, always thinking that he was the only one sober when everyone else was drunk, but it was all his illusion.

He opened the door.

Zhong Lei grabbed his arm and urged, "Hurry, we have to go to the company quickly. Ou Junlang's father came to our company and said he wanted to buy Xingfeng Entertainment so that Ou Junlang could go back and inherit the Ouhe Group."

"Oh, okay."

Chen Feng saw Zhong Lei's face again, and his heart slowly calmed down.

Whether it's now or a thousand years later, I depend on you.

It's nice to meet you.
