Chapter 53 Unknown Interstellar Civilization

Haier's eyes flashed with thoughts, and he slowly flew up, with the black cloak rippling behind his back, and passed through half of the planet before arriving at a hole that led directly to the ground.

The hole is two kilometers in size. Looking down, it looks lifeless and as deep as an abyss. The walls of the hole are smooth, the surface is crystallized, and the magnetic field response is low.

Standing at the edge of the sinkhole, Haier looked up at the gray foggy brown sky. He had already guessed that a resource-gathering spacecraft poked out of the gray foggy brown clouds and directly penetrated the mantle of the rogue planet MT745. Like a straw, it sucks the star core and sucks it onto the spacecraft.

Among them, the magnetic constraint and gravity technology are mature and of a very high level.

Haier's face was deep in thought, and he looked down, scanning the smooth cave wall. Nanomachines had already collected the rock structure crystals on the smooth cave wall. He contacted Zero and began to use the geological age detected by previous isotopes to compare the impact of this place. The geological age of destruction by external forces determines the time when outsiders extracted the core of the star.

"About 10-20 years." Guizhou calculated the approximate time when the earth's core was extracted and reported.

Haer was shocked.

Is it so close in time?

He only appeared in this galaxy five years ago, which means that the spacecraft extracting the star core will most likely pass by him.

Passing by each other in the universe, even at a distance of five light years, is considered ridiculously close.

How far is five light years?

One light year is equal to 9460730472581 kilometers. 94 trillion kilometers.

In "The Three-Body Problem", the Trisolaran spacecraft has a speed of one-tenth the speed of light. It takes 450 years to accelerate and decelerate to the earth.

Without a jump, a super-light speed ship, and a curvature engine, a single-digit five light-year flight could kill several generations of ordinary humans.

Even though Haile's Starry Sky Exploration Vessel had a jump engine, it still felt slightly lucky that it didn't hit the unknown civilization's spacecraft that passed by.

A spaceship or civilization that doesn't know good or evil can easily extract the core of a wandering planet. Haile doesn't even know whether it's a civilization or a single spaceship.

But no matter what, it is much more powerful than my own small starry sky exploration ship.

The chain of suspicion in the universe begins instantly.

Haile controlled the nanomachines in the suit, entered the area around his eyes from the blood vessels on his face, and combined with the biomagnetic field, began to construct a celestial magnifying glass.

Around Haer's eyes, obvious veins appeared due to the construction of a celestial magnifying glass.

He turned on his distance vision, microscopic vision, and clairvoyance, raised his head and swept towards the stars, as if he was traveling through the stars, with lights flashing around him. He roughly scanned the ten light-year surroundings, but did not find any spacecraft.

He found traces of gravitational collapse that were suspected to be left by the transition. It was very likely that the other party left directly after collecting the resources.

Then, Hail carefully saw the meteorite flow within ten light years. The holes on the meteorite were clearly visible, and then he found three different meteorite flows.

Most meteorites are silicates, among which are meteorites rich in minerals such as iron and nickel. They are not rare in the universe. If you are lucky enough, you may even find some meteorites called planets that evolved from planets. nuclear.

Planetary core is a special type of celestial body, which refers to a celestial body with almost only a metallic core. The surface of ordinary celestial bodies is often covered with a mantle; while a planetary core has only a metallic core left due to impacts or other reasons.

As for the mt745 rogue planet, if there is no interference from external forces, its atmosphere will pass away over a long period of time, and the rock and dust will scatter in the universe, collide with other meteorite streams, and evolve, leaving behind its own planetary metal core and a planetary core meteorite. , floating in space, this is its normal life.

Planetary core meteorites are rich in heavy metal elements such as iron, gold, platinum, silver, copper and are natural minerals in the universe.

"Most of the mineral resources of the meteorite flow are harvested."

Using the nanomachines of the suit, Hail built a celestial magnifying glass to enhance his vision. He could directly see the environment within ten light years, and found several meteorite groups that should contain a lot of mineral resources, like traces of ant nests. They were obviously engineered Mechanical shuttles and drilled channels take away mineral resources.

The other party has a complete civilization structure, a spaceship capable of moving in the universe, superb detection and mining technology, the ability to accurately find mineral resources in meteorite groups, heavy engineering magnetic constraints, and gravity technology to remove the core of the planet. It is definitely not something a simple spacecraft can do without causing the planet to disintegrate on-site.

At least the Starry Sky Explorer cannot accurately search for the mineral resources of the meteorite group, nor can it use heavy engineering magnetic constraints and gravity technology to remove the core of the planet.

The other party is more short of mineral resources than ourselves.

Haile regained his far vision, penetrating vision, and microscopic vision. The celestial magnifying glass formed by nanomachines disintegrated. The veins in his eyes slowly calmed down, and the flow of nanomachines like running water flowed into the suit.

Haile's heart sank as he roughly guessed that the other party's technological civilization lacked mineral resources just like his own.

What could happen if two interstellar civilizations meet in the universe and both are short of mineral resources?

Perhaps it is different from other civilizations.

Haier alone is civilization.

The other party is still unknown.

"I hope I haven't met you."

Haile doesn't think he is invincible now.

Even on Krypton in ancient times, there were many people who were more powerful than themselves, but they still died and passed away in the universe, and the universe forgot the honor of the Kryptonian era.

This shows that Kryptonians are not invincible existences in the universe.

Now, it is not possible to dominate the universe.

Haier, who is still in the accumulation stage, does not want to run into cosmic civilization and start a war right away.

Haile turned around, his black cloak fluttering, left the hole drilled through the mt745 rogue planet, walked through the gray-brown fog above the planet, and returned to the location of the Starry Sky Explorer.

He began to make changes to the Starry Sky Exploration. Within two months, he continued to use thermal sight and nanomachines to form various detection auxiliary instruments. With the cooperation of Guizhou, he transformed this ship, which was originally a scientific research exploration ship, into something that looked like a ship. The Starry Sky Explorer, a small spaceship, was directly transformed into a large bullet that could withstand several attacks.

All the seams were welded tightly, and all the remaining steel was mottled and welded onto the outer armor of the Starry Sky Explorer, hoping that it could withstand a few attacks during the attack and hold on until it could defeat the opponent on its own.

The Starry Sky Exploration Vehicle, which is designed for scientific research, does not have much firepower to face an interstellar war.

On this ship, the only one capable of interstellar warfare is Hale.

He didn't know if there would be a war, but always being prepared and facing everything was the safest way.

Two months later.

"Master, the Brain in Steel learning system is completed."

"Celie proposed a plan to use the remaining 20% ​​of the nutrient solution to cultivate a new body."

Return to zero report.

"Allow her to use the remaining nutrient solution."

Hal, who was absorbing radiation with all his strength in space, heard the report from the planet's surface returning to zero, turned around and shuttled into the planet.

Nowadays, he no longer needs the nutrient solution to maintain his life needs. It would be a waste to keep the nutrient solution, which is just for Celie to build her own body.

Cultivating a new body does not affect the transition. In addition, the spacecraft has been repaired and the energy conversion has been completed. With 38% of the crystal core engine energy, it can sustain at least two transitions.

Haier immediately flew into the Starry Sky Explorer, adjusted the atmosphere inside the ship, maintained his peak power, and issued the order.

"Return to zero and start the transition."

"Target Krypton!"
