Chapter 825 Dead Star Region
Earth calendar year 4400, 345 years have passed since the start of the Human Union Expedition Plan.
In the past 345 years, the development of the Human Union has never stagnated.
Whether it is the preparations for the expedition plan or the scientific research work of the Academy of Sciences, all projects are proceeding in an orderly manner.
With the increasing perfection of the sixth-level technology tree, the power of human civilization has become much stronger than 345 years ago.
However, in order to collect materials for cross-river navigation in a low-key manner and not to attract the attention of other possible advanced civilizations, under the order of Lu Yongchang, the Human Union has curbed the momentum of expansion as much as possible.
But even so, the territory of human civilization has now reached 1,800 light years.
[Dyson Sphere] is widely used in the edge of the territory.
To be precise, it is the border area in the direction of the solar system.
The reason...
After the war in the past, that area became a completely "civilization-barren" area.
Weak civilizations died in the aftermath of the war, while powerful civilizations, like humans, left their homes and sought other ways of life.
Only a large number of empty star systems and young stars were left.
This just met the conditions for the use of [Dyson Sphere].
Therefore, a large number of [Dyson Spheres] were deployed in this star field, absorbing the energy of these young stars.
The large-scale use of [Dyson Sphere] made things worse for this star field, which was already in a low period.
The starlight was dim, and except for the silently working machines and the space-time fluctuations from time to time, there were only various celestial bodies that operated rigidly according to the rules.
It looked like a dead star field.
…
Kepler 452b, Antarctica.
The Central Institute of the Human Union Academy of Sciences, Lv Yongchang's office.
In the holographic projection, there was a clear and standard star map.
The central area of the star map was a hollow area filled with nebula matter.
There is almost no light from the stars inside, and only the faint starlight from the surrounding star fields illuminates this dead area with difficulty.
Observed from a distance, it is like a small dim scar in the brilliant Milky Way, not conspicuous, but it makes people feel afraid for no reason.
A yellow warning sign is clearly displayed on the star map.
This part of the star field has always been marked as a dangerous area in the star map of human civilization.
"I didn't expect that the territory of the human alliance would expand to this star field..."
Recalling the past, Lu Yongchang couldn't help showing a little nostalgia and regret in his eyes.
This star field is an old acquaintance!
I still remember that the human civilization back then escaped from this star field using the tail-breaking plan.
Yes, this is the star field around the original Gliese 555 star system!
That war completely destroyed the original pattern of this star field.
As a fourth-level civilization, humans, in order to escape the attention of the two advanced civilization factions, the Sweepers and the Pastoral School, implemented the Tail Cutting Plan in the Proxima region and headed towards the black hole from the Gliese 555 star system...
Afterwards, in order to compete for the two-dimensional Proxima, the Sweepers and the Pastoral School broke out a small-scale conflict covering a star field of fifty light years.
This empty and dead area spanning a full fifty light years is the trace left by this small-scale conflict.
This insignificant scar of the Milky Way silently tells the passing civilizations about this war of advanced civilizations.
The dead star field has almost no use value, so Lu Yongchang's eyes did not stay for too long.
His eyes crossed this dead star field and cast to the "other side".
On the other side, fifty light years away from the edge of the dead star field, there is a dim light spot.
That dim light spot represents a star system.
Even though the territory of the Human Union is vast and there are tens of thousands of habitable stars, this small star system still has irreplaceable significance.
That is the true origin of human civilization!
The solar system!
This dilapidated star system has no material value.
But for today's human civilization, this star system has a more important spiritual value!
When the expedition plan was about to be officially launched, Lu Yongchang, who learned from Zero's reminder that the territory of the Human Union had expanded to this dead area, was slightly moved and sent a new model of detection starship to it.
This is the vanguard.
After all, that area involves the war between the Sweeper Civilization and the Pastoral Sect, so it is always right to be cautious.
This detection starship will conduct a full-scale exploration of the surrounding 100 light-year area.
When it is confirmed to be safe, the Human Union will officially launch the expedition plan.
The expedition route that had been determined long ago was slightly modified under Lu Yongchang's order-the human fleet will re-take the escape star road in the past, and once again set out from that dilapidated small star system to launch an expedition to the Andromeda Galaxy!
If you don't return home when you are rich, it's like walking in the night in brocade clothes!
Before leaving the Milky Way, let the human souls who sacrificed in this star field see how glorious human civilization has become now!
ps: I'm stuck with a serious writer's block. I wrote two chapters and deleted them all. I'll take a day off today to sort out the subsequent plot.
I'll continue with five chapters tomorrow!
