Chapter 846: Retracing the Escape Star Path
After entering the superluminal curvature state, the human fleet did not head directly towards the Milky Way-Andromeda Galaxy Bridge.
Instead, it turned slightly and rushed towards the direction of the Dead Star Region.
Retracing the escape star road of the year.
This was a proposal put forward by Lv Yongchang and passed by the Academy of Sciences and the Parliament.
The first stop of the fleet was the black hole of a relatively small scale.
It was not only the place where human civilization was promoted to Level 5 civilization, but also the "hometown" of the [Nus] civilization.
Of course, according to the navigation plan, the fleet would not stop there.
The next stop was the Gliese 555 and Ross 154 star systems, which had long been reduced to ashes in the war between the Sweepers and the Pastoral Faction.
Finally.
The fleet will stop for a while near Proxima Centauri and head to the birthplace of human civilization - the solar system.
...
After the fleet set off, the hustle and bustle in the small universe slowly disappeared.
In order to save supplies, the humans on the Home Fortress went into hibernation.
They will wake up one day in the future and watch this documentary promotional video about the escape star road.
As the producer of this film, Qi Mengshu did not hibernate.
She followed the fleet and passed through the star systems that were in ruins or even completely disappeared in the universe.
At a high speed of 800c, the thousands of years of human escape from the star system seemed particularly short, but no one could deny the heavy history contained in this short star road - Qi Mengshu recorded it like this.
...
Three years later.
In the year 4453 of the Earth calendar.
A dilapidated star system quietly ran in a corner of the Milky Way.
Sparse stellar matter was dispersed in the star system, forming a beautiful planetary nebula.
Inside the nebula, except for a giant reddish-brown star that had expanded several times in volume, there were only a few relatively large planets.
Accompanied by strong space-time fluctuations, a fleet of large warships appeared outside this dilapidated star system.
The solar system has arrived.
In the Earth, Lv Yongchang sat in his seat, looking at the holographic projection of the dying solar system, his face full of emotion.
Not only him, all the older generation of scientific researchers from the Earth era in the Earth stared at this fading galaxy for a long time.
The tachyon signal was sent.
The fleet started the curvature engine again and entered the solar system at a speed of 0.5c.
Kuiper belt, Pluto.
The dwarf planet kicked out of the eight planets, as the outermost planet in the solar system, was not affected too much.
It still runs smoothly in its orbit and sends the first "greetings" to human civilization after more than two thousand years.
The fleet slowly passed near Pluto and continued to drive into the inner solar system.
In the picture sent back by the high-definition camera, a silver-white object suddenly flashed.
"What is it?"
Lv Yongchang quickly stood up from his seat and issued an order to Zero: "Zero, capture it!"
...
A small detector was released and quickly approached the object reflecting the silver-white light.
When its true appearance appeared in the holographic projection, Lv Yongchang's face suddenly became serious.
Not only Lv Yongchang, but also the most senior academicians subconsciously stood up from their chairs and stared at the technological creation in the holographic projection.
This attitude made the atmosphere in the Earth, which was not very light, even heavier.
It was a technological creation with a dilapidated surface and full of traces of time.
The original circuit board was exposed in space, covered with a thick layer of interstellar dust.
No signal came from any form.
There is no doubt that it has been damaged.
"What is this?"
Qi Mengshu, who was allowed to enter the command center of the Earth because of shooting a documentary promotional video, lowered his voice and asked the young researcher beside him carefully.
The researcher shook his head in confusion.
Obviously, he, who was born in the Kepler era, did not recognize this antique.
"This is a probe."
Just when Qi Mengshu and most of the researchers were confused, a gentle voice came from the front.
"Lv... Chief Lu!" Qi Mengshu looked at the figure in front of him with some surprise and exclaimed in a low voice.
Lv Yongchang nodded to Qi Mengshu and continued to explain: "According to the number above, it should be a probe made in 2035."
"At that time, humans were in the Martian era."
"The purpose of this probe should be to explore the mineral resources in the asteroid belt."
"I didn't expect it to be preserved until now!"
Qi Mengshu stared at the primitive creation in the holographic projection, with shock on his face: "This is the history of human civilization."
"Chief Lu, it should be preserved in the museum of human civilization."
Lv Yongchang nodded gently.
"Of course."
In the holographic projection, the small probe had carefully put the dilapidated probe into the cabin.
...
The fleet continued to move forward.
Neptune, Uranus...
When the fleet came near Saturn, the debris of various technological creations increased several times in an instant.
"Titan Outpost Plan..."
Lv Yongchang moved his lips slightly, and uttered a plan that caused a lot of shock more than 2,000 years ago.
"I remember... it seems that a special life form was discovered on Titan at that time." Zhao Zijie sighed not far away, "It's been so long, I don't know if they still exist..."
When it comes to the past of the Earth era, only the voices of some "old guys" are left in the command center.
"They should be gone." The elderly Cao Liangcai responded with some sadness, "Under the helium flash, how could these lives that have not evolved to higher intelligence survive?"
"What's more, we carried out extinction-style fishing before leaving."
"That's not necessarily true!"
This time, it was Gao Yang's voice: "I remember that Professor Lu asked Ling to do the simplest deduction at that time."
"Titan seems to be able to rely on Saturn as a barrier to avoid the helium flash!"
"As for fishing..." Gao Yang looked at Cao Liangcai unwillingly, "Maybe there are still some survivors?"
"Don't forget the war between the Sweepers and the Pastoral Faction." Fang Xu poured a basin of cold water, "Although the solar system is far away from the battlefield, the power of the gamma-ray burst..."
"What if Saturn, the natural barrier, works again?!" Gao Yang continued to refute.
Fang Xu was stunned for a moment, and said with a gloomy look: "...Or, maybe."
The command center fell into silence again.
There is no doubt that at this moment, no one wants the jellyfish living in the methane ocean to die.
"Zero, find the location of Titan."
Lv Yongchang's voice rang out.
