My biological black technology

In the large screen, the remaining yellow area is also rapidly shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye due to continuous erosion and decomposition.

The size is getting smaller and smaller, just when everyone thought that this battleship might be completely dismantled smoothly and quietly.

Who knows, things have taken a new turn.

A few minutes later, most of the original tetrahedral battleship had disappeared. At this time, only a yellow sphere appeared quietly near the center of mass of the tetrahedral battleship.

The erosion and decomposition has come to a standstill, and the picture seems to have fallen into stillness, maintaining its original state without changing.

"Can't find a breakthrough!"

"Intrusive attack failed!"

…

A series of failure messages are fed back.

Seeing this, everyone felt a little disappointed that there was no effort, but instead, they breathed a sigh of relief.

"This is normal. I thought it would all be successful in one go. If that were the case, I would wonder if there might be some other unknown problems here." Zhao Ronghao breathed a sigh of relief and punched at the same time. Hahaha laughed.

"Yeah, but I'm still curious, why didn't they turn on the self-destruct mechanism?" someone said.

"The current spherical shape, judging from the situation of invasion and decomposition, should be the location of the core hub of the control center." Wen Ziqiang glanced at Cheng Xiang and guessed.

"That should be true." Cheng Xiang nodded while looking at the information on the large screen, "However, I'm afraid this control center will be more difficult to enter."

"To be able to block the third-generation Type-A information detection spores, we have to rely on a strong attack. In a short time, it is basically impossible." Cheng Xiang just finished speaking.

New detection data has been delivered.

Everyone's face turned dark when they saw it.

"Strong force material?"

"All in such a large area?"

"How is this possible?" everyone exclaimed.

Cheng Xiang's eyes flashed with a look that was indeed the case.

Before anyone could be surprised, more information was delivered.

Compared with the previous outline information, today's graphic information is much richer.

This is a smooth sphere. There are eight specially divided spherical surfaces on the surface of the sphere. It looks like a hatch. Above the hatch, a detailed mosaic-like color array is changing rapidly.

The flickering is very regular.

Everyone wanted to see something from these pictures, but, unfortunately, they couldn't understand anything except their glasses.

After a few minutes, Cheng Xiang stopped observing.

"Chief Cheng, do you see anything?" Wen Ziqiang asked quickly.

Cheng Xiang couldn't help but smile when he heard Wen Ziqiang's question, and then nodded slightly, "I can tell, but this may be a very troublesome problem."

"Very troublesome?" Wen Ziqiang had a question on his face and a hint of surprise in his eyes. Being able to hear a troublesome question from Cheng Xiang's mouth showed that this kind of problem is definitely very difficult for ordinary people.

"Yes, it's very troublesome." Cheng Xiang nodded and confirmed, "As you can see, according to the statistical results of the supercomputer, these eight flashing positions are played repeatedly in a cycle of 9 identical images."

"The first eight images are all composed of small pixel blocks of various colors. Each image has 9527 rectangular dots of various colors."

"And in the last picture, it's a picture of small rectangular blocks of solid color."

"According to my guess, think about it, is this like a password door?"

"The first eight images are questions, and the last solid color image is the answer sheet we need to fill in the answers."

"If the answer is correct, the door will open..." After Cheng Xiang's analysis, everyone came back to their senses and thought along Cheng Xiang's train of thought. It was really possible, and the possibility was very high.

Aliens may not call this thing us, but the concept of a door is nothing new to intelligent civilizations.

"Since it is a coded door, then, I would like to ask, can we keep trying and making mistakes?" Zhao Ronghao grabbed the key point and asked this question. Everyone immediately realized the importance of this issue and paid attention to it.

Although brute force cracking is a bit clumsy, it is also a simple way to solve the problem.

Cheng Xiang looked over and said, "I haven't tried this before, so I don't know and can't draw a conclusion. However, even if it is possible, brute force cracking is unfeasible and undesirable."

Cheng Xiang glanced at the flickering screen again.

"Why?"

"Our current supercomputing speed is twelve orders of magnitude higher than before!" Zhao Ronghao was very puzzled. "If it can be cracked by brute force, can't we still solve such a simple door?"

Cheng Xiang laughed after hearing this, "Our supercomputing speed is indeed fast enough and the computing power is very powerful, but when it comes to the password door in front of us, we may not be able to do anything about it."

"I don't know whether our supercomputer can be connected to this door."

"Even if our password input speed can be synchronized with our computing speed, brute force cracking is unrealistic." Cheng Xiang said this, but Zhao Ronghao and his group were confused.

Why is this unrealistic? It's obviously very simple. There are less than 10,000 points on this image. How can it be difficult?

Looking at everyone's questions, Cheng Xiang did not give in and continued directly: "Everyone knows the latest progress of the octopus hypothesis."

Wen Ziqiang nodded aside, "Chief Cheng, are you talking about the octopus language breakthrough discovered by the genius biological scientist Shen Luoyun a few months ago?"

Cheng Xiang nodded, "That's what I want to say."

"In the latest progress of text cracking in the octopus hypothesis, the number of frequency categories of a single pixel has reached more than 600, and this is not the upper limit, and the final result will continue to rise."

"But does this have anything to do with the current situation?" Zhao Ronghao continued to ask with unwillingness.

"The problem is big, and it's getting bigger." At this time, an auxiliary scientific consultant sighed at the side. He finally understood it, and his words immediately attracted everyone's attention. Seeing everyone's questioning eyes, this A scientific advisor then said: "Now let's assume that the possibility of a single block is 500. Then, there are 9527 blocks at the moment, and the possibility here is 500 to the power of 9527."

"With such a huge number, even if the speed of inputting answers is equal to the computing speed of our supercomputer, we cannot use exhaustive methods to crack such a door. That is an unimaginably huge number." The scientific adviser finished his expression. It was still a shock.

"It is indeed a very unimaginable number."

"On the order of tens of thousands of zeros, even if our supercomputers are spread all over the galaxy, we may not be able to brute force crack through such a door." Cheng Xiang lamented.

Everyone was even more shocked when they heard Cheng Xiang's vivid words.
