Golden Ratio Rectangular Prism
In the dim light of the engine, a flat surface was displayed on the large screen. This surface was not smooth, but rather somewhat rough, but overall it was flat. It looked a bit like granite, but it was unclear what the specific material was.
From the perspective of the Lyra, the entire shot was blocked by this 'plane,' so at first glance, all you could see was a flat, enormous plane.
It's as if you're so engrossed in the mountain that you don't know its true face.
However, the next moment, the Lyra's display camera switched positions at the operator's command, and at the same time, it connected to data from the external cameras of other warships.
As a result, the large screen was suddenly divided into many smaller screens.
Through multi-camera surveillance, the true face of this enormous flat surface was finally revealed to the public in a different light.
Its surface almost completely encompassed the entire human fleet; only the outermost warships could capture its outline in a photograph.
Yes, it has a border, and it is a border, the kind that is square and rectangular.
In multiple views, humans see that the surface folds at a 90-degree angle at the two side edges, and the same applies to the beginning and end.
This is a cuboid!
By combining the external views from multiple ships and multiple camera positions, humans can quickly identify what they are seeing.
"Commander Yue, this cuboid is right above our fleet!" Yue Yuan returned to the large screen and saw the First Mate of the Lyra turn his head to look at him.
The above expression is not accurate.
Because in outer space, there is no such thing as downwards, but Yue Yuan understood what the First Mate meant. The First Mate was referring to the direction the human fleet was moving forward as "front" and the upper part of most warships as "up."
Furthermore, Yue Yuan also saw what was on the screen; it really was a cuboid.
Once the object was identified, humans quickly measured its size.
The long side of the cuboid is 2,000 kilometers, the width is 1,236 kilometers, and the height is 763.8 kilometers.
2000, 1236, 763.8 – these three values were just measured when the AI 'Tianhe Light' directly provided a reference answer from the database: the three numbers perfectly conform to the Golden Ratio.
The ratio of height to width is approximately 0.618, and the ratio of width to length is also approximately 0.618. Similarly, the ratio of the longest side of a cuboid to the sum of its length and height is also 0.618.
In other words, what humans see now is a super-large Golden Ratio Rectangular Prism.
The AI system quickly imported the data into the program, and then displayed a cuboid model to humans in a corner of the large screen, with the dimensions of each side labeled on it.
A surface 2,000 kilometers long and 1,236 kilometers wide is certainly not enough to completely cover the human fleet, since human warships are not sailing side by side.
Even so, it was enough to shock everyone.
Because it's really too big. The radius of the moon is only 3,476 kilometers, and the length of this cuboid can span half of the moon.
From God's perspective, this cuboid is now equivalent to a flat plate placed on top of the human fleet's spherical formation.
And it was very close to the human warship at the top, almost face to face.
This is why humans can now see very clearly the material that makes up this Golden Ratio Rectangular Prism. Although we don't know what the material is, we can at least see it clearly.
Its granite-like appearance makes it look like a piece of granite lying in the Void. This appearance reminds humans who have survived from the era of the Callisto Base of building materials such as bricks and marble slabs from the Earth Era.
Honestly, if someone told Yue Yuan right now that this was a super-civilization building material, he might believe it.
From the outside, this Golden Ratio Rectangular Prism has no thruster nozzles, no turret, and no detection modules. If it weren't for its enormous size, it would truly be a simple and unremarkable piece of granite.
However, it was so large that its long side, when upright, could block half of the moon.
Now humanity understands that the obstruction of starlight observed before must have been caused by this cuboid. The only question is why we only saw the starlight being obstructed and not the cuboid itself.
"It must be some kind of advanced technology," everyone who saw the Golden Ratio Rectangular Prism thought. They couldn't think of any other explanation.
Without a doubt, this cuboid must be a creation of a civilization. It is impossible for such a perfectly square object to exist in nature, and it has even ended up in the hands of humankind.
If it is a creation of civilization, then it means that humanity has already been discovered, and all the previous phenomena must have been caused by this cuboid.
Yes, Dangerous Star Region.
Humanity has been on the run for hundreds of years and is still in Dangerous Star Region.
A distance of two hundred light-years might only take a short while for those advanced civilizations to reach.
In a daze, a sense of utter despair rose in everyone's hearts. The atmosphere on the bridge instantly became extremely tense, and a dark cloud hung over everyone's minds.
From the destruction of the sun to the escape of Callisto, to the encounter with intelligent nanoclouds, and then to the war with the Kun-Tai Civilization, humanity has faced many difficulties, but has managed to escape unscathed.
But luck eventually runs out, and this time, fate did not smile upon humanity.
"Is it all over?" Yue Yuan murmured bitterly, sitting slumped in his seat.
It was as if they were waiting for their final fate to arrive.
He has absolutely no intention of resisting or anything like that right now.
Back then, even the nanomining machines of that mere level Level 3 Civilization were a nightmare for humanity, and fighting the Kun-Tai Civilization was so difficult, let alone something like this that we don't even know exactly what it is.
"So this is the creation of the Silver Heart Alliance. I wonder how they will treat humans after we arrive at the Silver Heart Alliance. Perhaps they will study them first? Just like humans studied the Kuntai People." Yue Yuan had mixed feelings, felt somewhat depressed, and was also very unwilling.
The only one he could think of right now was the Silver Heart Alliance. He had seen in the Kun-Tai Civilization's database that the Kun-Tai Civilization's home planet had been taken away by the Silver Heart Alliance.
Yue Yuan still vividly remembered the names of the civilizations that appeared on the broadcast: the Harvesters, the Perseus Commonwealth, the Silver Heart Alliance, and the Silicon-Based Collective. But apart from the Silver Heart Alliance, he couldn't think of any other advanced civilization that would be interested in Low-level Civilization.
"Commander Yue, what do we do?"
Just as Yue Yuan was becoming increasingly desperate, he vaguely heard someone calling his name.
As his pupils Qingming, Yue Yuan realized that everyone on the bridge of the Lyra was looking at him with expectant eyes.
No, not everyone was expectant. Several military personnel had burning eyes, and judging from their expressions, Yue Yuan was convinced that if he gave the order to fire a few shots at this Golden Ratio Rectangular Prism, they would carry it out without hesitation.
These people are crazy, but Yue Yuan is not.
