Chapter 488 Mystery of Life
Fang Yunsheng felt a headache when he thought that in the next ten hours, the fleet would need to restrain its firepower to "catch bugs" in the vast starry sky spanning more than three thousand light years.
Is this really what the peacekeeping fleet should do?
Indeed.
The threat level of the scorpion group is not low.
Not to mention some conventional civilizations, even the powerful eighth-level civilization may not be able to get much benefit from this scorpion group - those ten thousand meter-level giant scorpions that have mastered the dimension technology, each has a combat power comparable to the main battleships of the eighth-level civilization, and the number of scorpion groups far exceeds the number of warships of most eighth-level civilizations.
But for the peacekeeping fleet of the People's Union, especially the peacekeeping fleet carrying a Genesis Fortress, this scorpion group is obviously not enough.
It is certainly a good thing that the situation develops smoothly, but as a captain, Fang Yunsheng must hope to encounter some opportunities to "make achievements" in his heart - for this mission, he applied to the Academy of Sciences for the right to use the Genesis Fortress!
You know, this thing can't be applied for at any time!
With the artifact in hand, but only able to watch it aside...
This feeling is a bit too uncomfortable.
"Academician Wang."
Fang Yunsheng asked Wang Jing again with some expectation: "After the scorpion group is wiped out, do you have any other arrangements?"
"For example... trace the whereabouts of the broadcasting civilization?"
Hearing the words "broadcasting civilization", Wang Jing's previously calm face suddenly changed a little.
"Broadcasting civilization..."
"Its situation is a bit complicated. I need to report to the Academy of Sciences first, and then the Academy of Sciences will make a decision."
Although Wang Jing's expression quickly returned to calm, Chen Fan, who was standing beside her, still keenly noticed the fleeting panic in Wang Jing's eyes.
Seeing this, Chen Fan couldn't help but frown.
Since the reverse tracing experiment, Wang Jing's mood has been a little strange. Could it be that there is something wrong with the reverse tracing experiment of the broadcasting civilization?
Considering that Wang Jing did not tell Fang Yunsheng directly about the situation, Chen Fan could only temporarily suppress his doubts.
"As for the next arrangements..."
Wang Jing's voice continued: "General Fang, this cosmic bubble should not last long, right?"
Chen Fan's expression froze, and the confusion that had been lingering in his mind disappeared instantly.
"?"
What's going on?
Why is this cosmic bubble not working? Before
he could speak, Fang Yunsheng in the communication interface had nodded with a wry smile.
"Yes."
He affirmed Wang Jing's words: "In order to get to the front battlefield as soon as possible, the fleet can only choose a hard landing."
"At present, the cosmic membrane structure of this cosmic bubble has been destroyed by the Genesis Fortress. According to our observations, the cosmic membrane has shown signs of self-disintegration."
Chen Fan stared at Fang Yunsheng, who looked indifferent in the holographic projection.
A universe, a universe that contains countless planets, ended so lightly?
Although he knew the fragility of the cosmic membrane a long time ago, and learned from Song Ziliang the consequences of the collapse of the cosmic membrane.
But that was just "talk" after all.
When things really happened in front of him, when he learned that the anti-cosmic bubble was about to collapse, Chen Fan was still stunned.
Although he knew that there was probably no life in this universe, that the safety of this universe had no direct or indirect connection with him, and that the Human Union would probably properly handle the Xinalo civilization and the Star God Kraken, Chen Fan still felt an inexplicable sense of anxiety.
It was as if...
at this moment, he had lost something forever.
"This..." Driven by this sense of anxiety, Chen Fan subconsciously asked Wang Jing beside him, "Is there no way to repair this cosmic membrane?"
Wang Jing glanced at Chen Fan, who suddenly became "distracted", and frowned slightly.
She pondered for a moment, as if she was thinking about something.
"I'm afraid there is no better way."
Wang Jing's eyes revealed a bit of helplessness: "There is a considerable difference between this cosmic bubble and other cosmic bubbles."
"I have checked the fleet's navigation log. The cosmic membrane structure of this cosmic bubble is very similar to the node universe."
"This is also very consistent with the past cognition of the human union. Although the positive and negative cosmic bubbles are opposite to each other and are on both sides of the hyperspace membrane, their structures are very similar."
Facing Chen Fan's gaze, Wang Jing continued: "If it is another cosmic bubble, in the early stage of the collapse of the cosmic membrane, the Genesis Fortress may be able to patch it and curb its collapse trend."
"But this cosmic bubble..."
"It's difficult, too difficult."
Wang Jing sighed and kept shaking his head: "Although it has a considerable degree of similarity to the node universe, its toughness is not as good as the node universe. Not only that, its stability is also lower than the node universe."
"In general, the anti-cosmic bubble is more like a weakened version of the node universe. Let alone one Genesis, even if ten Genesis fortresses are dispatched, I am afraid there is no way to reverse the collapse of the cosmic membrane."
Hearing Wang Jing's words, Chen Fan's face became more and more ugly.
Wang Jing's heart moved. She narrowed her eyes and carefully looked at Chen Fan's changing expression: "After all, this is just a cosmic bubble with almost no intelligent life. It's gone, so is it? Do you have to be so upset?"
Not to mention Wang Jing, even Fang Yunsheng in the communication channel cast a puzzled look at Chen Fan.
Like Wang Jing, he couldn't understand the change in Chen Fan's expression. Although the peacekeeping fleet rarely had the opportunity to encounter the scene of the collapse of the cosmic bubble, he was born in the expedition fleet and was no stranger to the collapse of the cosmic bubble.
Thinking back to the expeditionary fleet, in order to expand and consolidate the territory of the Human Union, some small cosmic bubbles were even used as fuel for the fleet's expedition!
Even the main universe of the Human Union is actually the fusion product of several large cosmic bubbles.
In Fang Yunsheng's view, cosmic bubbles are actually almost inexhaustible natural resources, just like planets and stars in the starry sky.
Looking at the puzzled eyes of Wang Jing and Fang Yunsheng, Chen Fan's heart became more and more confused.
Yes, it's just a cosmic bubble with almost no intelligent creatures, why should he be so uncomfortable?
"I... I don't know."
Chen Fan shook his head in a trance.
He hesitated again and again, and finally said out the strange feelings that emerged in his heart.
After listening to Chen Fan's description, Wang Jing frowned even deeper, and she turned her head and looked at Fang Yunsheng, who was confused in the communication interface.
"...What important things have you lost?"
Wang Jing murmured in a low voice and fell into deep thought.
If someone else said this, Wang Jing would definitely not care, and might even regard this person as an "extremist" with a heart of saintliness.
But Chen Fan said this...
then he really needs to think about it carefully - let alone other things, Chen Fan's ability to control information flow is destined to make him an extraordinary person!
"It's not that your life experience has any hidden connection with this universe bubble, right?" Wang Jing asked half-jokingly, "But weren't you born in the node universe?"
"Born..."
Chen Fan looked a little strange, and after hesitating for a moment, he corrected: "Academician Wang, I was not born in the node universe."
"Have you forgotten? Strictly speaking, I am actually an illegal traveler."
Wang Jing's heart jumped, and the half-joking expression before quickly became solemn.
Illegal travel...
Although this situation is rare, it cannot be said to be an exception - usually, this case will occur when two or more universe bubbles overlap or resonate.
It is known that the node universe and the anti-universe bubble have a very close connection, and Chen Fan has traveled to the node universe, and even the Xinaluo civilization in the anti-universe has an unclear connection with Chen Fan...
Could it be that...
Chen Fan actually came from the anti-universe bubble?
Thinking of this, Wang Jing's expression suddenly became serious: "Do you know the cosmic coordinates before the crossing?"
Chen Fan shook his head repeatedly.
"Tsk!"
Wang Jing gently tsk, and his tone became worse: "How does Song Ziliang do things?"
"Why don't you investigate such an important matter?!"
"Song Ziliang did mention this matter before, and he also helped me pay attention to it, but I never found the corresponding clues." Seeing that Wang Jing's face was getting uglier and uglier, Chen Fan hurriedly spoke up to excuse his nominal boss, "I also thought about returning to the original world at that time, but then I thought about it, instead of returning to the original world to live a dull life, I still like the days of being an investigator."
"In addition, various dangerous technologies continue to emerge, and finding the original world is an extremely time-consuming and energy-consuming thing..."
"Just like this, this matter was delayed."
Wang Jing didn't say anything, but quickly raised her hand to operate in the holographic interface in front of her.
As she entered her identity identification code in the interface, the holographic interface, which was originally only half a person's height, suddenly expanded, and various complex data appeared densely in it.
Wang Jing thought about it, and the complex data in the interface disappeared one by one, and finally a few lines of simple data were left.
She flipped through it casually, and the anger on her face eased a little: "You are right, Song Ziliang did help you find the original universe."
"But he didn't find a universe that matched the feature code in the database."
"Plus, you don't have any requirements for the original universe, so he temporarily gave up this project."
Wang Jing tapped the holographic interface in front of him gently.
"Just now you said that the collapse of the anti-universe bubble gave you a bad feeling. I guess..."
Wang Jing whispered the guess just now: "Your original universe may be this anti-universe bubble, so you have this strange feeling in your subconscious mind."
With Wang Jing's actions, the simplified data in the holographic interface became complicated again.
The comparison of the universe feature code is quite complicated. Even the main brain of the scientific research ship will take a lot of time to get the result.
...
On the other side.
Fang Yunsheng stared blankly at Wang Jing and Chen Fan in the communication interface, hesitating to speak. I vaguely
remember that he was asking about the follow-up arrangements of the fleet?
Why did the topic suddenly become the search for the original universe?
In addition, this investigator named Chen Fan...
seems to have a very high status in the Academy of Sciences!
Just open your mouth and let a Class I academician take the initiative to help him find the original universe. This treatment is not something that ordinary people can enjoy!
By the way, this kid can also take a Class I academician to carry out investigation tasks!
He can even move freely in the scientific research ship!
Is this really just an ordinary investigator?
Recalling the many scenes he had seen before, Fang Yunsheng couldn't help but doubt.
After hesitating for a moment, he coughed lightly, forced a little smile on his face, and winked at Chen Fan, who was standing idly beside Wang Jing, across the communication interface.
After seeing Chen Fan noticed him, Fang Yunsheng raised his right hand and shook the smart terminal on it at him.
Looking at Fang Yunsheng who winked at him, a question mark slowly appeared on Chen Fan's forehead: "?"
He lowered his head and looked at his smart terminal following Fang Yunsheng's gaze.
The next second, the interface of the smart terminal popped up automatically.
[This machine has received a friend request. ]
Yi's voice sounded in his mind: [Do you need this machine to help you agree? ]
Looking at the avatar of Fang Yunsheng in the interface, Chen Fan was stunned again.
He raised his head and looked at Fang Yunsheng in the communication interface, and then looked at the smart terminal on his right hand. For a moment, he didn't understand what the other party meant.
Although he was puzzled, considering the other party's identity, Chen Fan still gave Yi an order of agreement in his heart - after all, given his current situation, who knows what crisis he will fall into.
Knowing a captain of a peacekeeping fleet...
is not a bad thing after all.
Who knows, one day I might be able to drag someone into the water... No, how about asking someone for help?
Thinking of this, a bright smile suddenly appeared on Chen Fan's face.
At the same time, seeing that the friend request was approved, Fang Yunsheng's smile on the communication interface also brightened a little.
Across the focused Wang Jing, the two smiled at each other, as if they had reached some consensus.
"General Fang."
Wang Jing's voice suddenly rang out, interrupting the tacit py transaction between the two.
She did not turn around, still concentrating on the holographic interface in front of her: "The arrangement you mentioned earlier..."
"Since the cosmic bubble is about to collapse, after the cleanup work is completed, you let the fleet cut off the star field around the place of creation and pack it into small universes."
"The scale... temporarily set it at 10,000 light years."
"In addition, a part of the fleet will go to the surrounding star field to pull some stars. After the matter here is over, I will try to repair this star field."
"The specifications of the stars will be transmitted to the flagship mainframe soon."
Fang Yunsheng's face was bitter.
OK.
Let alone making achievements, according to the current situation, catching bugs all over the starry sky is already a good job - look at the orders issued by Wang Jing, either cutting small universes or moving stars. A peacekeeping fleet was regarded as a construction team!
The moment he agreed to Wang Jing's request, Fang Yunsheng looked at Chen Fan meaningfully.
His expectations now are all on this investigator with a strange identity!
As for Chen Fan...
He looked at Fang Yunsheng's meaningful eyes and nodded solemnly.
He has already thought about it.
If he gets into any trouble in the future, he will definitely be the first to report Fang Yunsheng's name!
...
"...No."
After Fang Yunsheng's communication link was cut off, Wang Jing sighed deeply and moved his eyes away from the holographic interface in front of him.
"The comparison results are out. Judging from the feature code, there should be no connection between you and the anti-universe."
Wang Jing sighed in distress.
Although a suspicious option has been ruled out, the fog in front of him is getting thicker and thicker.
This is not a good sign.
Wang Jing murmured in a low voice: "This is troublesome..."
Sensing the confusion in Chen Fan's eyes, she quickly explained:
"Under normal circumstances, crossing generally occurs between two cosmic bubbles that are close in distance or even partially overlap, so I would guess that you may come from the anti-universe bubble. After all, the node universe was also inside the hyperspace membrane before, and the two cosmic bubbles did have a chance to overlap."
"But now it seems that this guess is wrong."
"It's neither an anti-universe bubble nor a cosmic bubble in the pan-universe, so there is only one possibility left."
"Your native universe is outside the territory of the Human Union. This is a rare ultra-long-distance crossing."
"Since the establishment of the Administration, there have been only a few similar cases of ultra-long-distance crossing, so the theoretical basis of the Academy of Sciences in this regard is not perfect."
"According to previous research results, this ultra-long-distance crossing may be related to the resonance of the cosmic bubble and the hyperspace membrane."
"In plain words, your consciousness, with the help of the hyperspace membrane, instantly crossed a very long distance and came to another cosmic bubble."
"With the current capabilities of the Human Union, I'm afraid it is impossible to locate your native universe."
Chen Fan nodded thoughtfully.
He didn't have any obsession with returning to the native universe.
According to his past thoughts, if he couldn't find the native universe, then he couldn't find it, which just happened to completely cut off the idea of ​​returning to the original world.
But now...
this thing seems to be linked to the node universe and the anti-universe!
Chen Fan sighed and repeated Wang Jing's previous words: "This is indeed a bit troublesome."
Wang Jing raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows tiredly: "... In short, I will notify the Academy of Sciences and let them find a way to solve this matter as soon as possible."
"By the way."
Chen Fan suddenly remembered something: "Did the previous reverse tracing of the broadcast civilization succeed?"
"What was the result? Where is the broadcast civilization...hidden?"
Hearing Chen Fan's question, Wang Jing's face changed again.
She hesitated again and again, and finally sighed deeply and called up the bright red image that Chen Fan had glanced at before.
"I don't know if the experiment was successful."
"But..."
"According to the results of reverse tracing, the high-dimensional signals of the broadcast civilization are scattered throughout the hyperspace membrane area."
Chen Fan was slightly stunned, and quickly recalled the bright red hyperspace membrane network. The sense of uneasiness in his heart gradually became stronger: "The entire hyperspace membrane area? What does this mean?"
"To put it simply..."
Wang Jing said word by word: "If the results of the reverse tracing experiment are correct, then the broadcast civilization...is right next to us."
The moment the voice fell, a shrill alarm suddenly sounded in the research ship!
"Warning!"
"Super-large-scale space-time fluctuation effect detected!!"
"Fluctuation range: This universe bubble!!!"
