Asynchronous Communication
I can die without regrets.
Amir was very excited; he felt that his life had been worthwhile.
Of course, this base was specifically left by humans for the Dog-Headed People, so they certainly wouldn't let him die here. They didn't even set up any dangerous tests. They would only open the base if the Dog-Headed People were confirmed to have arrived based on their biological form and that they already possessed Wireless Technology.
As for how the Dog-Headed People will use it after it's opened up, that's Dog-Headed People business.
Back then, humans mined out the last Hydrogen Nuclear Energy on this planet, and the previous Flying Saucer Civilization that came to this Star System also mined out all the planets in space. As a result, no matter how the Dog-Headed People developed, they could not develop Controlled Nuclear Fusion because they had no raw materials left.
That's why humans left this base before they left, so that the Dog-Headed People could make good use of it and not be trapped on their home planet.
As such, when faced with a group of five kobolds, the base's management AI tries its best to make them understand the purpose of the base's existence and strives to make the Dog-Headed People understand the meaning.
Due to the passage of time, there were some communication problems, but after playing the video compilation, the five Dog-Headed People roughly understood the ancient history that was relevant to them. Furthermore, the base's AI calculated through feedback that although the five Dog-Headed People differed in their language from those of ancient times, they seemed to be able to understand some Chinese characters.
Although the AI at the base is not Strong Artificial Intelligence, humanity was at least at the peak of Level 2 Civilization back then, so the AI it created wouldn't be artificially stupid and lack self-awareness, but it would still be able to make some basic judgments.
Having calculated this, the base's AI immediately began communicating with the group of five via text. The five Dog-Headed People were not fools; after a brief exchange, they realized that the 'God of Light's Envoy,' seemingly floating in the air by some unknown means, couldn't understand their language, but appeared to be able to read the God's Script.
It is reasonable that the messenger of the God of Light can understand the God's Script.
"Six, get me some paper and pen." Professor Amir, who quickly realized the problem, immediately said to Chun Liuzai next to him.
Before Chun Liuzai could even rummage through his backpack for paper and pen, the base's management AI once again controlled a touchscreen device, which floated in front of Professor Amir. To ensure that Professor Amir wouldn't understand what it meant, it even played a video on the projection screen of a Bronze Age Dog-Headed People writing Chinese characters on the touchscreen.
Now Professor Amir and the other Dog-Headed People present understood.
"Tsk tsk tsk, a divine artifact! Eighteenth Brother, this is a divine artifact! No wonder it's the God of Light's Residence. I dare say if we take any one of these items out, we'll never have to worry about food or drink for the rest of our lives." The one who spoke was Gou Erpang. His dog eyes were fixed on the touchscreen floating in front of Professor Amir, filled with longing.
After saying this, he began to look around, as if looking for something he could lift.
Wei Shiba was speechless. This Gou Erpang was just kneeling in fear and trembling, and now he's already eyeing the things here.
"It is indeed a divine artifact, but I advise you not to get any ideas about it. Putting aside the fact that this place was left behind by the God of Light Civilization God of Light, how many of these things do you recognize? If you touch something carelessly and trigger something bad, we might all be doomed here," Wei Shiba patiently advised.
"Don't worry, Brother Eighteen. You know what kind of person I am. I will never let you down when it matters."
"Good to know." Wei Shiba nodded, but just to be on the safe side, he lowered his voice and whispered in Gou Erpang's ear, "Actually, we don't need to take anything. As long as we can safely send Professor Amir back to China, we probably won't have to worry about food and drink for the rest of our lives."
Upon hearing this, Gou Erpang's eyes lit up immediately; he clearly understood.
Of the five Dog-Headed People present, Professor Amir's identity is undoubtedly the most useful within the national system. While he and his group of Dog-Headed People might not be believed if he told Wei Shiba about what had happened to them, Professor Amir would be a different story.
When they return to China, Professor Amir will report this news to the government, and everyone involved in this trip will definitely become prominent figures. They will certainly receive substantial material rewards, and might even be able to board the government's big ship. That would be a great deal.
While Gou Erpang was trying to imagine a bright future, Professor Amir began to communicate with the base's AI using text.
"You are the messenger of the God of Light, from ancient legends." Professor Amir raised his hand and tried many times on the touchscreen before finally figuring out how to use it. He then racked his brains to recall the Chinese he had learned from various ancient artifacts and wrote down these few words in a crooked and awkward manner.
"Yes, this system is Artificial Intelligence for base management."
The AI being managed doesn't proclaim itself God of Light, because this is the logic humans have set up. Although humans created God of Light as part of the Cannon Fodder Plan, they didn't deliberately emphasize this so-called God of Light in the bases they left behind, because the purpose of leaving the bases wasn't for the Dog-Headed People to continue their deity worship, but to let them set foot in the stars.
Religion, in most cases, is an obstacle to scientific progress, and humanity certainly doesn't want the Dog-Headed People to become a civilization bound by religion. Although humanity seemed like a villain at the time, constantly speculating about extraterrestrials with the worst possible attitude, since they chose to help these Dog-Headed People set foot in space, they wouldn't be stingy and would still maintain their proper decorum.
Humanity received a lot from the Dog-Headed People Planet back then, and this is only fair in return.
"Why are you staying here? We came here, the Heavenly Gate is wide open, where does the Heavenly Gate lead to? Is this a spaceship?" After making some corrections, Professor Amir wrote some fragmented words on the touchscreen, which didn't seem very clear.
Professor Amir didn't actually understand the true meaning of the 'Artificial Intelligence' that the base management AI mentioned, but he filled in the blanks in his mind and assumed that it was a being left behind by a God of Light Civilization to guard the place.
Although it's not accurate, it doesn't seem wrong either.
"You have entered the Industrial Age and mastered Wireless Technology, thus activating my pre-set system, and the base's gates are now open to you. This base was established by my Creator, Human Civilization, to guide the future Dog-Headed People civilization free from the constraints of its home planet, to venture into space, and to seek the meaning of life in the universe."
The base's Intelligent AI displayed lines of text, and regardless of whether the five Dog-Headed People could understand them, it directly stated the purpose of Human Civilization in leaving this base.
