"A township-level spacecraft suddenly detected radio waves with a certain pattern..."
Hearing the report, everyone in the command center was shocked, even Jiang Yu stood up from his chair.
The subsequent report from the technical advisor made everyone even more nervous.
"Report to the Captain."
"This radio wave was not sent by us."
"It's an unknown radio wave that bears traces of an intelligent civilization."
"It has three bands that repeat twice and six bands that repeat four times."
"There seems to be some kind of rigorous logical connection between the bands..."
Deng Jianjun, the former commander-in-chief of the armed forces, was appointed captain of the first interstellar fleet of the human race.
After hearing the report, he immediately asked, "Have you captured the source of the unknown radio waves?"
The technical advisor replied: "The duration of this radio wave is too short to locate the source of the emission."
"But based on our intelligence analysis, the unknown radio wave emission source is not far from our fleet."
Everyone in the command center became even more nervous, now it was certain.
An unknown radio wave was received in the pitch-black space.
It is very likely that it was launched by an alien civilization.
"Order the fleet to enter radio silence."
"Shut down the fusion engine and reduce the visible light emission."
"Turn all observation equipment to maximum power and search for the source of the emission."
"The fleet has entered Level 1 combat readiness mode, and all weapons are ready to fire at any time."
Deng Jianjun calmly issued a series of orders.
All the moving spacecraft shut down their engines.
But the entire fleet continued to move forward under the action of inertia.
While the technicians were searching for the source of the transmission, they began the intensive decoding work.
In this case, Deng Jianjun's order was completely correct.
Because now, the other party should not have discovered the human fleet.
If the fleet stops or adjusts its position.
It is necessary to increase the output power of the nuclear fusion engine.
Increasing the output power will emit stronger radiation.
The human fleet will be discovered by the other side first and will be in a passive position.
In this way, 1,101 spaceships floated in space like ghosts.
In interstellar travel, small village-level spacecraft will not act alone.
It can either be docked outside the hull of a large spacecraft or inside a large spacecraft.
Except for basic lighting and equipment operation, each spacecraft is quiet.
Everyone was waiting quietly and anxiously, waiting to see what would happen next.
In this way, the huge fleet drifted in space for ten days.
During these ten days, everything was quiet and normal, and no abnormalities were found.
All members of the fleet were waiting quietly, preparing while waiting.
Finally, the communications staff suddenly reported: "Unknown radio waves detected again."
"Based on observation and calculation of the radio wave information source, the approximate location of the emission source is obtained."
"The source of the launch is approximately 1.2 million kilometers ahead of the fleet and is approaching at a speed of 200 kilometers per second..."
Upon hearing this report, everyone in the command center felt their hearts leap into their throats.
If the previous radio waves were possibly emitted from the distant universe, they would have no purpose.
But now, the launch source is only 1.2 million kilometers away from the fleet and is approaching the fleet rapidly.
Even a fool can guess that the human race is likely to come into contact with extraterrestrial intelligent civilizations.
And this is an alien civilization with the ability to travel across space.
The human race has not yet left the Alpha Galaxy.
"Has the information been analyzed?" Jiang Yu asked.
At this time, even though Deng Jianjun was a veteran and could remain calm in times of crisis, he was still a little at a loss.
Jiang Yu had to step up and deal with some things personally to deal with the crisis that might break out next.
"Too little information was obtained to parse..."
Jiang Yu was not surprised by this result.
After all, the writing and logical connections of each civilization are different.
"According to our analysis, the emission source is most likely a detector, powered by nuclear fusion..."
The report from the technical advisor made Jiang Yu feel a little relieved.
Since it is powered by nuclear fusion, this civilization should be a Level 1 civilization.
According to Jiang Yu’s learning, understanding and inference at the main academy of the planet in the high-dimensional world.
Technological civilizations below level 1 use chemical energy as power.
Only a Level 1 technological civilization would use nuclear fusion as a power source.
Of course, a Level 2 civilization still needs to use nuclear fusion power.
It’s just that Level 2 civilization has a higher utilization rate of nuclear fusion energy.
Moreover, the most notable feature of a Level 2 civilization is the possession of protective shield technology.
"Capture this detector." Jiang Yu gave the order after thinking for a while.
Since we have already faced each other, it doesn't matter whether the other party is just flying a probe or a fleet.
You must first understand the other party's level of civilization, assess their combat effectiveness, and then come up with a response strategy.
Under Jiang Yu's order, a town-level spacecraft launched a village-level spacecraft.
The nuclear fusion engine on this village-sized spacecraft flew towards the alien probe at extremely low power.
Minimize the emission of visible light and energy radiation to minimize the probability of being discovered by alien civilizations.
As the village-level spacecraft approached, the detector was finally seen through the optical detection equipment on the spacecraft.
It was an instrument with an area of more than ten cubic meters and a strange shape.
After the village-level spacecraft approached, it was operated by the pilot.
A robotic arm extended and successfully grabbed it.
