The last human in the universe

Chapter 250
In the depths of the vast and deep universe, on the orbit of a small dwarf planet, on the observatory of the "Keck" spacecraft, two Braneys are used to feel visible light, and two are used to feel infrared rays. A total of four One eye is full of worry.

He quietly looked at the bright star hanging above the sky in the distance, and remained motionless for a long time.However, there are dozens of other large spaceships beside him, and there are even more small spaceships shuttling between this dwarf planet and those large spaceships.

Blarney has experienced this vast and deep starry sky for many years.In his eyes, this scene has long been the same as the ceiling he saw when he just woke up, and there is nothing special about it.

But since coming to this galaxy, this starry sky, which is so familiar that it has lost its sense of mystery, has made him feel a special meaning.

Depressed, heavy.

It seems that there are some monsters hidden in the dark. It seems that as long as the noise from one's own side is a little louder, the monster will be aware of its own existence, and will jump out of the darkness, and the only surviving part of the "Kadilla" civilization devoured.

This makes one's own side have to be as careful as possible in all actions, and anything that can emit relatively strong radiation—whether it is electromagnetic radiation or nuclear radiation, etc., is prohibited.Even the fusion reactor can only maintain a low power, and even the engineering operations carried out on this dwarf planet have unconsciously lowered the lighting power.Even in the spaceship, when people talk to each other, they will always lower their voices unconsciously, as if a little louder can attract the monster.

"Ugh."

Blaney sighed softly.

Originally, his own civilization was also flourishing on the parent star, and even broke through the large-scale preparation technology of antimatter, truly entering the interstellar era.

But the arrival of the "Star Disaster" changed all that.A powerful and prosperous civilization was thus endangered.Fortunately, I don’t know if it’s because of natural phenomena or a passing super civilization came to the rescue. The last few hundred large immigrant spaceships left in the civilization somehow moved here from a place thousands of light-years away, and came to a large Next to the interstellar dust cloud.

There are many stars, many planets in that large cloud of interstellar dust.But... there are also many signs of civilization.As the supreme leader of the Cadillac civilization whose strength has fallen to the bottom, Blarney finally made a decision to give up the idea of ​​entering the interstellar cloud clusters that are closer, and instead go to the rest of the star system to survive.

They chose the closest star system.

But the disaster does not seem to be far away, and bad luck once again befalls civilization.

When the distance to this star system was less than 2.2 light-years, the remaining scientists of the Cadillac civilization were horrified to discover that there were traces of civilization in this star system!
Moreover, through comprehensive analysis of the radiation emitted from this star system, various flashes, changes in the elemental structure of rocky planet atmospheres and gaseous planets, changes in the spectrum of stars, etc., the conclusion drawn is actually Yes, the civilization stationed in this star system has at least surpassed its own scientific and technological strength, and it is in its heyday!

Such a powerful civilization, I am afraid that sending a squadron of squadrons at will can wipe out all of its own side!
However, at this moment, the energy of our own fleet is almost exhausted, close to the point of running out of oil and lamps—in order to gather enough energy to slow down, our own side even had to abandon more than half of the spaceships in the fleet.

It is impossible to change the destination and sail to other galaxies.However, if you continue to go to this galaxy, you can only go into the mouth of a tiger.

No matter what you choose, it's a desperate situation.

At the critical moment, Blarney gritted his teeth and made a decision.

Continue to go to this star system, but do not enter the core of the galaxy, but only look for an asteroid or dwarf planet at the periphery of the galaxy, far away from the interior of the galaxy, collect some resources there, and once it is enough, set sail again to the next star system, then set off immediately.

No matter how you look at it, the risks of this plan are quite large.However, under desperate circumstances, he could only choose to take this path.

For this reason, the fleet had to start the deceleration process at a place quite far away from the destination—because only when the deceleration process is pulled far enough can the power requirements for the deceleration maneuver process be low enough and the radiation released can be low enough. to be concealed enough.Moreover, the fleet had to allocate a considerable part of its power to search the edge of the galaxy and select a suitable destination.

Fortunately among the misfortunes, the fleet finally found a suitable target.

It is a dwarf planet at a distance of 2200 billion kilometers from its star.

In fact, with the current scientific and technological strength of our own fleet, it is almost impossible to find such a dim and small target.But I have to say, maybe good luck finally started to come, and I actually found it by myself.

The next thing is also very smooth.Under low-power maneuvering, the fleet quietly approached the dwarf planet, and there was a high probability that the powerful civilization in its heyday was not disturbed during the process.Moreover, there are no technological creations on this dwarf planet.

This means that there is a high probability that that civilization has not included it in the scope of rule.

So the fleet was stationed here, and began to collect resources carefully but as quickly as possible.

"In power, water resources have been fully collected, 15 antimatter factories have been built, 26 supporting fusion power plants have been built, and 36 A-7 steel plants have been put into operation..."

The officials serving as executive assistants reported a long list of information to Blarney, who was in power.Finally concluded: "According to the current process, we still need about 10 to 15 years to fully complete the resource reserve and start the next interstellar voyage."

"10 to 15 years..."

Blaney sighed again: "We have been here for 17 years. I hope that civilization hasn't discovered us..."

Zhifu's expression was also a bit gloomy: "There is no way. This dwarf planet is too small, and some of the necessary resource reserves are small and scattered. We have to smelt a huge amount of ore to collect them bit by bit. "

Blaney is well aware of this.

This is the inevitable characteristic of a small planet.If this is not the case, why would any civilization prefer to be stationed around a large planet?

"Hope luck still favors us."

……

At this moment, in space hundreds of millions of kilometers outside the orbit of planet No. 1 in the H10 galaxy, an ocean-going patrol ship sailed into the berth at the Deep Space No. [-] scientific research base, ending its [-]-year ocean-going patrol. .

Some scientific researchers and logistics personnel staying here are not surprised by this.After all, although it is called a scientific research base, it is actually used for both military and scientific research.

"Damn it! Finally his clumsy behavior is over, and if his clumsy patrol continues, I'm going to fall in love with that robot cook!"

"Damn! Sixth, haven't you already proposed to that cook! I saw it with my own eyes that day!"

"Get lost! You're still talking about me, who dragged the robot nurse to the storage room that time!"

"I was looking for a nurse to show me the wound...the wound!"

"Hahahaha!"

Looking at the unrestrained, like rogue patrol boat fighters, several scientific researchers frowned unconsciously.

"Well, it's ocean patrolling. If it was in a serious fleet, it would have been imprisoned to death long ago."

"Let's talk less, old Wang. That's an ocean patrol. If you don't let go of the waves, you will go crazy."

……

"Hey! Boys! Good luck!"

"There are mermaids in deep space! Be careful not to be distracted by the singing, hahahaha!"

"Teach you a trick, when you can't hold back, you can propose to the robot, and you can unlock new functions, hahahahaha!"

Hearing these words, Wang Qi, who lined up neatly with his comrades and was advancing towards the passage, couldn't help frowning.

"Although the superior's personal discipline on ocean patrols is indeed relatively relaxed, it is not to this point, is it? Is this still called a soldier?! Shame! When I come back ten years later, I will be different from you!"

Thinking in his heart, Wang Qi and his comrades still kept their eyes on each other and marched in line, in stark contrast to the seniors around them who had just returned from an ocean patrol, shoulder to shoulder and shoulder to shoulder like naked.

But Wang Qi quickly understood why those seniors became like this.

boring!so boring!
In the name of ocean patrol, there is actually nothing to do!
In order to ensure combat effectiveness and maneuverability, and to ensure that emergencies can be dealt with at any time, most of the space in the ocean-going patrol ship is occupied by combat supplies and weapons, resulting in no entertainment facilities at all. Look at the readings of the remote observation equipment every day, and occasionally adjust the forward trajectory, there is nothing to do!
Even the daily military training, which can vent excess energy, can only carry out a few subjects.

After all, this is a warship, not a training ship.

Gradually, Wang Qi's heart gradually became loose.

In the dark starry sky and boring life day after day, suddenly one day, Wang Qi, who was enjoying fighting in the ring, suddenly heard a piercing siren.

"alarm!"

He was shocked at first, and then, an uncontrollable excitement burst out from the depths of his heart.

"There is an alarm!"

A group of strong and strong men suddenly became agitated, and the next moment they screamed and rushed towards the weapon console.

"Finally something to do! Finally an enemy! Finally able to fight!"

At this moment, Wang Qi was full of such thoughts.As for who the enemy is, how many there are, and whether one's own side can win, all are not within the scope of consideration.
