The last human in the universe

Chapter 148 Sailing Speed
In this vast space, distances as high as trillions of kilometers, even distances measured in light years, can be considered very close.Not to mention, at this moment, the distance between the source of the explosion and our side is only a mere 1 kilometers.

It's almost right next to each other.

In particular, the source of the explosion even kept moving synchronously with its own side.

Almost without thinking, Zhao Changxing could come to the conclusion that the explosion must be closely related to his side.

So……

"Get more information."

"Yes."

The next moment, more information about the explosion was presented to Zhao Changxing.

Looking at the type of energy released by that explosion, Zhao Changxing frowned slightly.

This is not a chemical type explosion, nor is it a nuclear explosion.Not nuclear fission, not nuclear fusion.In comparison, it is more like the annihilation of positive and negative matter.

After receiving the news, the rest of the civilization leaders on duty rushed to the main control room of the Yuanhang spacecraft.

Everyone looked dignified.

In this vast universe, anything can happen, and anything can happen.In particular, this time the explosion was so weird, could it be that some other civilization was eyeing him?
This is a major event that may lead to the destruction of civilization if it is not handled properly.

"Leader, all our combat equipment is activated. The last inspection and maintenance was 6 hours ago. The conclusion of the inspection and maintenance is that it can be activated at any time."

Facing a universe full of uncertainty, be ready to enter the battle at any time.Although this will lead to great consumption of manpower and material resources, it is undoubtedly necessary.

"The emergency response team has completed assembly and is ready to go to the front line of combat at any time. At the same time, emergency wake-up preparations have been completed."

Of the roughly 40 people who are still awake at the moment, about 5000 belong to the military establishment.In normal times, they will also undertake certain tasks of operation, maintenance and troubleshooting of the Yuanhang spacecraft, but in addition to this, they also undertake the task of maintaining order in the spacecraft.At the same time, they will also conduct regular military-related training.

Once something happens, these 5000 people are the front-line force that can be mobilized at any time.After that, once an emergency wake-up order is issued, the 10 Second Echelon soldiers who are in hibernation will wake up.

After that, there is the third echelon, the fourth echelon, and the state of all the people at the last moment.

"Issuing an emergency wake-up order. At the same time, from this moment on, the Yuanhang spacecraft is in a state of first-level combat readiness."

Zhao Changxing calmly gave the order.

"Yes."

Under Xiaoxi's control, in the hibernation area, where 10 soldiers from the first echelon hibernate, as many as [-] hibernation cabin doors opened simultaneously.Awakening and body protection medicines are injected into the soldiers' bodies through intravenous injections.

Their hearts began to beat once a day on average, and gradually accelerated.The blood began to rush through the blood vessels again, and the dormant nervous systems were also awakened.

A calm but majestic broadcast began to echo in the hibernation area.

"Attention all combat personnel, our ship has entered a first-level combat readiness state. After hearing this order, please immediately follow the training manual to start recovery. Repeat, all combat personnel, please pay attention..."

In the rest of the Yuanhang spacecraft, nearly 40 spacecraft operation and maintenance personnel have also entered a state of combat readiness.Under the command of each second-level and third-level command room, people gathered in each maintenance room, and while paying close attention to the operating status of the area they are responsible for, they are also quickly and orderly checking various spare parts and tools , machinery and other preparations.Make sure that once something happens, you can immediately go to the emergency repair.

The atmosphere in the Yuanhang spacecraft became serious at this moment.

"Order to mobilize all observation forces to observe the area where the explosion occurred and obtain relevant information as much as possible."

"Yes."

After obtaining Zhao Changxing's authorization, all observation equipment equipped on the Yuanhang spacecraft, including visible light telescopes, gamma ray telescopes, X-ray telescopes, infrared telescopes, neutrinos, and gravitational wave telescopes, started operating at the same time.

After making all preparations, people began to wait.

The only thing to do at this moment is to wait.

According to common sense, since the force that exists in the dark created this somewhat inexplicable explosion-this point is basically certain.Because there are only two types of explosions, either natural or man-made.And since it is not natural, it can only be man-made.

There must be a reason for the other party to do this behavior.No matter what purpose they want to achieve, the next step will be related to their own side.

So let's wait and see.

At this moment, that explosion has lost its trace in the universe.Just like fireworks briefly illuminate the dark night sky, but after the fireworks dissipate, darkness will eventually cover the earth again.

Outside the Yuanhang spacecraft, there is still that quiet and deep dark universe.At this moment, I can't find any traces of that explosion, as if it never happened.

If it weren't for the data records still clearly showing the explosion to people, I'm afraid people can't help thinking that it was just their own illusion.

Time passed quietly, and 10 minutes passed in a blink of an eye.After that, two 10 minutes, half an hour...

Until an hour later, there was still no movement.

At this moment, Xiaoxi reported something to Zhao Changxing again.

"Captain, through the continuous observation of the 9 iconic neutron stars, I confirm that the speed of our spacecraft relative to the EZ Aquarius galaxy at this moment has decreased from about 2.4 kilometers per second to only 215.9 kilometers per second at this moment. .”

A civilized leader reprimanded subconsciously: "Xiao Xi, did you make a mistake!"

There was still no emotion in Xiaoxi's neutral voice: "Sorry, I didn't make a mistake. During our voyage, I have been continuously measuring the speed of our ship. A measurement process takes 5 minutes In the past period of time, I have carried out a total of six measurements. Each measurement has reported the same results to me. Therefore, this matter has risen to the level of importance that needs to be reported directly to the captain. point."

Xiaoxi has a very high intelligence.In its program judgment, if the speed of a spaceship was still 2.4 kilometers per second at one moment, but instantly dropped to only 215.9 kilometers per second at the next moment, then it will not first consider this fact, Instead, it will check whether its own program calculation and observation hardware is faulty.

Because this kind of thing is too bizarre, so bizarre that even an artificial intelligence will not accept it easily.

"Let's check manually first."

"Yes."

Several on-duty astronomical observation teams began to execute this command separately at the same time.

Faced with such a bizarre incident, Zhao Changxing could not easily believe it.

This violates the most basic laws of physics.

If a huge spacecraft with a mass of more than 1600 billion tons can reduce the speed so much in an instant, then, in this universe, what else can be believed?
Why didn't our side notice any overload pressure?

Even cars in the era of Earth Nation sometimes press people on top of their seats when accelerating.If the speed change is so drastic, then, in that instant, the Yuanhang spacecraft, and every atom and molecule that constitutes the Yuanhang spacecraft, will be subjected to at least 200 million gravitational forces equivalent to the earth’s gravitational force in an instant. times the gravity.

This is a huge force that is far from being able to withstand the spaceship materials manufactured by the technology of the Moyun Litar civilization.In that instant, not to mention the human body, the entire spaceship will be crushed into a thin piece.

But the reality is that everyone does not feel any inertial pressure.Not only that, but the high-precision gyroscope did not detect any speed changes.

After about ten minutes, the observations conducted by several astronomical observation groups came to a conclusion.

Zhao Changxing could even hear some panic in their voices.

The result was exactly the same as what Xiaoxi reported.

"Leader, our ship, indeed, did slow down from a speed of 2.4 kilometers per second to a speed of 215.9 kilometers per second relative to EZ Aquarius...we, we..."

There are both Xiaoxi's observation data and people's artificial observation data.Combining the two, this matter has become an iron-clad fact, which can no longer be overturned.

But, but how could this be? !

In the main control room, the military leaders, government leaders, and scientific advisors who attended the meeting all looked livid.

It turned out that the power hidden in the dark had already affected our spaceship, but at the beginning, our side didn't notice it...

The power and technology displayed by the opponent is even like magic, which is completely incomprehensible.

Zhao Changxing took a deep breath.

"No matter who it is, there will always be reasons behind it. At present, the hidden force has not shown any intention to attack us, at least for the time being. Then... continue to wait."

Can only wait.

Maintaining the status quo.

In a slightly tense and solemn atmosphere, everyone was waiting.

After an unknown amount of time, Zhuang Yunwei, the chief scientific advisor at the meeting, suddenly picked up a pen and quickly calculated something on the paper.

After a while, he frowned tightly, as if he was thinking hard about something.At the same time, he was still muttering something to himself.

"No, the energy level is wrong...huh?"

　There are two updates today, and there is another chapter at 19.06 in the evening. . .
