Since the Human Alliance fleet arrived in the Gliese 3929 star system, this star system, which had been stagnant for countless years, has finally begun to show some changes.
Dyson cloud systems near their host stars, planetary mining equipment near Gliese 3929b...
And surveillance probes are deployed around star systems.
The vast amount of machinery created the illusion of unparalleled prosperity for this desolate star system.
The reason it is called an illusion is that such a prosperous scene will only last for 50 years.
The year is 2670 in the Earth calendar.
An ever-growing fleet broke through the "scorching" hydrogen wall surrounding the star system.
A large amount of antihydrogen comes into contact with hydrogen in the reaction chamber and annihilates, releasing an enormous amount of energy.
This energy propelled the fleet ever faster toward its destination!
The camera then shifts back to the Gliese 3929 star system.
After fifty years of destructive mining, Gliese 3929 now appears increasingly desolate.
Gliese 3929c, due to its low resource abundance, narrowly escaped disaster, but its surface is now covered with countless bottomless pits.
Gliese 3929d, a massive gas giant, has remained virtually unchanged.
As for Gliese 3929b...
No, Gliese 3929b no longer exists.
An asteroid belt appears at the orbit of Gliese 3929b.
Just like the asteroid belt between Mars and Saturn.
However, unlike the asteroid belt in our solar system, almost all the asteroids in the Gliese 3929 asteroid belt are composed of silicates.
Iron, nickel, and the rest of the metals all ended up in the belly of the Human Alliance fleet.
...
"Beep! Beep! Beep!"
As the buzzer sounded clearer, Lü Yongchang gradually regained consciousness.
He coughed twice skillfully, expelling the remaining deep-sea fluid from his trachea.
"Zero, what happened?"
Having just regained his senses, Lü Yongchang abruptly sat up, his expression urgent as he asked, "Pillar civilization, or..."
"Professor, the fleet is about to reach its destination."
"According to the wake-up procedure, members of the Academy of Sciences and the parliament are being woken up first."
Upon hearing this, Lü Yongchang remained stunned inside the hibernation pod.
A few seconds later, he came to his senses and asked in an extremely strange tone.
"Zero, are you sure the fleet has reached its destination?"
"Did you encounter any unexpected incidents during the voyage?"
"During your 95-light-year journey, did you encounter any other civilizations?"
Zero's synthesized voice rang out: "Professor, I am certain we have reached the target area."
"No trace of any interstellar civilization was found during the voyage."
As he spoke, a small holographic image appeared in front of Lü Yongchang.
【Navigation Log】
Lu Yongchang didn't speak, but instead flipped through the navigation log in front of him with a look of disbelief.
According to the log, the voyage went unexpectedly smoothly.
Apart from encountering a large meteor shower, this long journey spanning 95 light-years was almost entirely unimpeded.
"incredible……"
Lu Yongchang stared wide-eyed, muttering to himself, "How is this possible..."
"Where did they go?!"
Where did all those interstellar civilizations go?!
"Insufficient data, no conclusion can be drawn," a synthesized voice announced from the side.
Lu Yongchang waved his hand impatiently: "Get out of the way, I didn't ask you!"
zero:"……"
Lu Yongchang quickly crawled out of the hibernation pod, cleaning off the remaining deep-sea fluid from his body while pondering the reasons behind it.
Something unusual must be going on.
Could it be... that this area is the territory of an advanced civilization?
Human civilization is like a reckless youth, charging headlong into someone else's territory!
The thought of this possibility sent a chill down his spine.
“No, that’s not right.” Lü Yongchang’s expression grew increasingly solemn. He shook his head, rejecting his previous conjecture. “Even if there are advanced civilizations, this universe shouldn’t be this quiet!”
If human civilization has truly invaded the territory of a more advanced civilization, then they should receive something in return!
Whether it's a message of goodwill or an attack in some unknown form...
In short, it's absolutely impossible for things to be this peaceful!
"Where have these interstellar civilizations all hidden themselves...?"
Lü Yongchang's voice suddenly stopped.
hide?
Why hide?
Fear?
What are they afraid of?
Advanced civilization?
In a split second, clues began to connect in Lü Yongchang's mind.
He raised his hand, both amused and exasperated, and gently patted his head: "I understand!"
"So, we should thank the sanitation workers' civilization and the pastoral civilization."
"If it weren't for this great battle, our voyage probably wouldn't have gone so smoothly."
Indeed, not long ago, the war between the Cleaners civilization and the Pastoralists, which spanned tens of light-years, completely terrified the surrounding interstellar civilizations.
Every civilization hid itself, fearing that it would be noticed by those two advanced civilizations!
Human civilization emerged boldly at this time.
“Perhaps…” Lu Yongchang’s expression turned strange, “These civilizations look at us like we’re idiots, right?”
"Professor, Academician Fang Xu has arrived," a synthesized electronic voice announced softly.
As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Xu's shouts came from outside the door.
"Yongchang?!"
"Yongchang, are you awake?!"
