Messenger Organisms

"Accelerate yourselves, overtake the lead individual, transmit your information, then slow down and return to your original positions in the formation."

"Without any reference frame to rely on, how can you ensure that you will return to your original positions?"

If they could not maintain the formation, it would eventually descend into chaos. And since they were all "blind," they would not even know the formation had fallen apart, much less make adjustments.

"By calculating the difference between our own speed and the group's speed over time, and relying on the predetermined conical formation, returning to our original positions can still be done."

"But I still think the risk is too high..."

Huo Gu pondered for a moment. He did not consider such a formation ideal enough. It was sufficient for interstellar exploration and transporting supplies, but in war against an enemy, it was clearly inadequate.

During wartime, communication would inevitably be frequent. Multiple individuals might wish to transmit information at the same time, or a single individual might need to do so repeatedly. Since they operated relatively independently and knew nothing of one another's circumstances, problems were unavoidable.

After considering it for a while, Huo Gu decided to design an entirely new organism.

Its structure was not complicated. It was simply a smaller version of a superluminal organism, though equipped with antimatter propulsion. It was roughly the size of a sublight-speed shell.

When the group was traveling faster than light, a superluminal organism wishing to transmit information could launch one of these miniature superluminal organisms forward through electromagnetic acceleration.

From the perspective of the superluminal organism as a stationary reference frame, the electromagnetically launched miniature superluminal organism moved faster than its parent. It would therefore continue moving forward until it reached the edge of the spacetime distorted by the
