"I really didn't expect there to be such a special thing in the Milky Way, but this time it helped a lot."

Sunday, January 2047, 1.

big cold.

Earth star.

Binjiang City.

Longhu Hi-Tech Park.

In the manufacturing workshop where a large number of intelligent industrial robots are gathered, Xu Lei is playing with a blue coin with surprise and curiosity in his eyes.

This blue coin is none other than the Galaxy Coin.

From the appearance point of view, it is slightly larger than the traditional coins on the planet.

Especially the blue appearance adds a lot of mystery.

According to the technical information in the Science and Technology Museum, Xu Lei almost fused all the tens of thousands of Galaxy coins obtained from the Herald Empire battleships into the special materials for making the curvature spaceship.

After detailed testing.

The performance of the material after the fusion of Galaxy coins has been greatly improved.

It is by no means a substance that humans can create.

This made him have a strong curiosity about the crystal core of the raw material for making Galaxy coins.

If we can have enough crystal nuclei, then we can still build a powerful fleet based on the current technological level of human beings.

It can only be said that the value of the currency that can circulate in the Milky Way is definitely not that simple.

Unfortunately, only tens of thousands of Galaxy coins were obtained.

Otherwise, the overall performance of the light-speed spacecraft built will be much better, and it may be able to achieve super-light-speed flight.

What needs to be mentioned is that this curvature lightspeed spacecraft will be equipped with two sets of engines. In addition to the curvature space engine that can expand the space, shrink the space in front of the aircraft and expand the space behind to form a curvature bubble, it also needs a powerful engine. engine to provide energy.

On this, the antimatter engine without working fluid is undoubtedly the most suitable.

Although humans have not yet mastered the anti-matter engine, and the remaining influence is not enough to buy related technology exhibits in the Science and Technology Museum.

But fortunately there is another advantage.

After all, the battleship that the Herald Empire crashed had six antimatter engines on it.

It's enough anyway.

According to his idea, he intends to dismantle an application on the light speed spacecraft.

In any case, he now has a lot of knowledge stored in his mind, plus the ability in the overclocking state, there will be no problem in realizing the installation of the antimatter engine of the light speed spacecraft.

What's more, there is Xingtong's help in this matter.

Speaking of which, after leaving the Science and Technology Museum that day, Xu Lei found that his brain development seemed to be a little higher.

Entering the overclocking state is also getting sharper.

According to this change, as he masters more and more technological exhibits in the science and technology museum, the degree of brain development is likely to reach 100%.

It is not impossible to completely get rid of the body by then.

Xu Lei played with the only remaining Yinhe coin in his hand for a while, and then put it away.

The reason why he left one on purpose is that he feels that it will have other functions, maybe it can play a special effect when going to Proxima Centauri. After all, apart from its own value, the Galaxy Coin is also a status symbol.

Proof that the civilization you come from is registered with the Galactic Civilization Authority.

How much can make other alien civilizations cast a mouse.

Don't dare to play tricks.

It can be said that in order to successfully complete this task, Xu Lei prepared very well.

And the second Xu Lei put away the Galaxy coin, he saw Xingtong walking out of the workshop.

Stand half a meter away from Xu Lei.

Take the initiative to report the manufacturing status of the curvature lightspeed spacecraft: "Report to the boss, the materials required for the spacecraft have been prepared, and the construction can begin."

"I see, let's start tomorrow." Xu Lei nodded to express his understanding.

After making this arrangement, Xu Lei turned around subconsciously, admiring the scenery outside through the window in the corridor: "It will be the New Year soon, I believe this year will be more lively than ever."

At this time of year, the weather in Binjiang City has become very cold.

Standing in the park building and looking out, you can see that the originally dense plants are also covered with a layer of white.

Very shocking.

It looks like it will bring a strong visual impact.

If it were ordinary humans on the moon and Mars staying here at this moment, they would feel extremely cold, even if they were injected with genetic optimization fluid, it would be difficult to resist.

The location of the main Binjiang City is extremely cold in winter.

However, these temperatures and environments have no effect on Xu Lei and all members of the Space Force.

After all, mechanical life forms are not afraid.

As for what Xu Lei said, there is nothing wrong with it.

Although human civilization is still facing the threat of the pioneer imperial fleet, it has achieved a huge victory in the hearts of ordinary people.

Naturally, it should be celebrated extraordinarily.

Of course, neither Xu Lei nor the alliance thinks this is a bad thing.

From the Pluto crisis to the interstellar battle with the Herald Empire, human beings have experienced too many things. Now they finally see hope. They think that the disaster is far away from the solar system. It is really not easy to be happy from the heart thing.

It is supposed to let everyone have a good time when the new year comes.

To this end, the alliance and future technology have also taken the lead in holding many activities.

Compared with Xu Lei who expressed his feelings, Xingtong stood behind him without saying a word, like a knight who steadfastly guarded the princess.

In the end, Xu Lei kept this posture for nearly 2 minutes, and then walked towards the elevator.

……

The next day.

Xu Lei came to the spacecraft manufacturing workshop very early.

As promised, the R&D and manufacturing of the curvature lightspeed spacecraft officially started.

Since Li Chengzhe, Wu Chuping, and related top scientists were unable to come to Earth Star, Xu Lei and Xingtong were responsible for the entire project.

A large number of intelligent industrial robots are involved in manufacturing.

Because Xu Lei happened to have a certain amount of Galaxy coins in his hands, the problem of the spacecraft materials was perfectly solved.

Coupled with the detailed manufacturing technology in his mind, it is not difficult to complete the main frame of the light-speed spacecraft in a short period of time, not to mention that only he can go there by himself to abolish the circulatory system that helps carbon-based life forms survive.

This will make manufacturing easier and more efficient.

What is the most difficult part to build a curvature light-speed spacecraft.

That is without a doubt the engine.

Especially the curvature space engine that ensures that the spacecraft can move at the speed of light and distort the space to create curvature bubbles.

As for the anti-matter engine, it only needs to be modified to a certain extent.

In order to complete the curvature lightspeed spacecraft as soon as possible, Xu Lei was personally responsible for the engine issues, and overclocking was turned on throughout the process.

It is also worth mentioning that when the Spring Festival came, Xu Lei temporarily put down his work and chose to temporarily return to Moon Taiyin City to accompany Chen Shihe and his family and friends.

The main thing is that I don't know when he will come back safely after he leaves.

Doomed not to see each other for a long time.

Although with the improvement of human life expectancy, the waiting in the middle is nothing, but it is always good to spend more time with your family when you have time.

What's more, building a curvature spacecraft doesn't all depend on the time during the Spring Festival holiday.

In addition, because human beings have already achieved the great integration of the alliance, even foreigners in the past regard the Spring Festival as the most important festival of the alliance.

The entire solar system is immersed in an atmosphere of joy and joy.

Of course good times are always short-lived.

As the Spring Festival passes and the Lantern Festival arrives, all parts of the country are also engaged in intensive and orderly production.

In addition to planning to build a second larger shipyard in Mars orbit, the solar system defense belt has also resumed construction, and Lei Zhan will continue to be in charge of this project, while Li Chengzhe and other top scientists in future technology will shoulder the responsibility of building the ten largest fleets of the alliance. burden.

It is necessary to increase the number of warships to hundreds of ships within 30 years.

It can be said that the task is heavy.

But this is also impossible.

All eggs should never be put in one basket.

Human civilization cannot rely entirely on Xu Lei, after all, who can guarantee that miracles will continue to happen.

In any case, humans must prepare for a frontal battle with the Herald Empire Fleet.

Even if the solar system is doomed to be destroyed.

The great human civilization will never surrender.

Death does not belong to humans.

In short, Xu Lei's plan went smoothly, and there were no emergencies in the middle. The originally expected three-year production time was finally completed in two years.

Xu Lei personally named it the Golden Crow.

The birth of the Golden Crow not only marks that human civilization has the ability to fly at the speed of light, but also means that Xu Lei is about to set off for Proxima Centauri.

-

"It's really beautiful. It's not in vain for us to put so much energy into it."

At this moment in the manufacturing workshop of the Golden Crow, Xu Lei inspected the blue and red-painted spaceship in front of him.

Because he has been waiting for this moment for two years.

That is to say, he has now become a mechanical life form, unable to feel the beating of the heart and the boiling of the blood.

Otherwise, it will definitely be more difficult to control emotions than it is now.

It may be due to the use of crystal nuclei in the materials of the spaceship, which causes the hull to appear a light blue color, which is a perfect replica of the technology exhibits in the science and technology museum.

Even Xu Lei himself was quite surprised by the degree of completion.

However, if you want to really confirm the situation of this curvature lightspeed spacecraft, you need to experience it yourself before you can know.

But in any case, two years to build a spaceship is worth it.

And just when Xu Lei was completely immersed in the fully streamlined hull of the spaceship, Xingtong walked over.

Briefly report the detection situation of the take-off ship.

"boss."

"This is the inspection report of the spacecraft, and the data of each component is within the required range."

"The Golden Crow can take off."

Xu Lei undoubtedly had absolute trust in Xingtong, so he didn't reach out to pick up the document, but just nodded and muttered: "Then start preparing for the departure process of the Golden Crow."

He is well aware of the current threat to human civilization.

The movement of the Herald Empire fleet is unknown, and it is possible to reach the solar system at any time.

In this case, it is natural that the sooner the civilized registration is completed, the better, so Xu Lei doesn't want to waste too much time.

Building a spaceship is a necessary prerequisite.

I can only wait patiently for two years, but now that the curvature lightspeed spacecraft has been completed, there is no need to continue to stay on the planet.

Everyone has their own mission.

He is no exception.

The sooner they reach Saitan and complete the registration of the solar system civilization, the human beings will be able to live forever.

No longer fear the threat of extraterrestrial civilization.

Buy enough time for yourself to develop and be strong.

But after all, I don’t know how long this alien trip will take, and whether we can return to the solar system smoothly and safely, so it is necessary to say goodbye to relatives and friends before leaving.

On the other hand, ordinary people in the outside world are doomed not to know the news for the time being.

"It's the boss."

Xingtong is very clear about what Xu Lei is thinking, so naturally he will not have any objections to it, and immediately implement it.

Until the figure of Xingtong disappeared from the field of vision, Xu Lei came to the landing pad upstairs and took his exclusive aircraft to the moon.

……

……

Chen Shihe already knew what Xu Lei was going to do, and Xu Lei didn't hide this.

So when Chen Shihe saw Xu Lei who came over suddenly, he immediately realized something in his heart, and his face became visibly disappointed and worried.

And it was Xu Lei's parents who had this kind of performance.

When Xu Lei's parents entered the biological dormancy cabin, they were not affected by the dead matter of the Herald Empire because they were brought to the Shenzhou. cabin.

Just temporarily relocating it to the company's lunar headquarters.

However, in the past two years, the scientific research department has successfully extracted a substance from their bodies through research on the life of the pioneers, making the genetic optimization liquid develop to the second generation.

Although ordinary human beings cannot be completely immune to the dead substances on the planet after being injected, it can greatly increase the lifespan of the human body, and the effect is several times that of the first-generation gene optimization liquid.

Unfortunately, due to the limited number of pioneer lives in the scientific research department, not many second-generation gene optimization fluids were produced.

It is not yet available to the outside world.

However, this allows senior figures such as the company's scientists to increase their life expectancy and continue to contribute to the development of science and the company.

With this special thing, there is no need for Xu Lei's parents to continue to sleep.

So after being awakened, he was directly injected with the second generation of gene optimization solution, so that the whole person looked as if he was decades younger.

Although they don't want their son to take risks.

Travel alone to the distant Proxima Centauri.

However, there are no eggs under the overturned nest.

If the solar system remains dark and dark, those who can escape will also become wanderers.

This is not the life Xu Lei wants.

As the saying goes, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. Xu Lei believes that this is what he must do.

What's more, which man does not have the ideal of stars and seas in his heart, and it is completely worthwhile to be able to get in touch with more and more brilliant civilizations in the Milky Way, even if he is in a dangerous situation.

Xu Lei's parents also understood their son's character, so they didn't so-called dissuade him.

Just leave the last time together to Xu Lei and Chen Shihe.

"When are you leaving?" Chen Shihe leaned on Xu Lei's chest and softly asked the exact time of departure.

Xu Lei replied: "It should be just a few days."

"No matter how long it takes, I will wait for you to come back with my uncle and aunt." Wen Sheng and Chen Shihe couldn't help crying, but he still said these words firmly.

Xu Lei held the other party tightly in his arms, and then made arrangements for the follow-up matters: "Don't worry, I will definitely complete the task in the shortest possible time, and then come back to see you safely."

"Don't forget that I am very strong now."

"And after I leave, I will give you the highest authority of Xingtong."

"With Xingtong here, even if I don't come back on time, she can guarantee your safety."

For Xu Lei, he would never leave the solar system to escape alone in the face of danger, but he couldn't just watch his relatives die.

So he has left behind.

After he leaves the solar system and goes to the neighboring galaxy, Xingtong will continue to build a second, larger curvature light-speed spaceship. If he fails to return on time, and the defense line of the solar system is destroyed by the Herald Empire Fleet, then Chen Shihe, his parents and others can take it The spaceship escapes.

Although this approach is relatively selfish, it is also the only choice after doing your best.

According to the content he obtained in the Herald Empire's battleship information database, the Herald Empire has not yet mastered the curvature lightspeed spacecraft technology, so as long as the curvature lightspeed spacecraft smoothly sits, there is no need to worry about safety.

It stands to reason that at this point, if you continue to get tired of it, it will only increase your reluctance for nothing.

If you leave early, you might be able to come back sooner.

This is Xu Lei's idea.

But when he thought about this clearly and was about to say goodbye to Chen Shihe formally, he saw Chen Shihe suddenly let go of him on his own initiative.

And his eyes are extremely firm.

After hesitating for a few seconds, he said in a deep voice, "There is one more thing I want to tell you. I plan to give birth to a child for you. At the same time, this is what uncles, aunts and others mean."

child? !
When Xu Lei heard Chen Shihe's words, he was taken aback for a while but quickly realized it.

Yes.

Waiting is the most painful existence.

Especially this kind of waiting without knowing the result.

For Chen Shihe and his parents, if they can have a new life to accompany them, it will undoubtedly feel a lot better psychologically.

Speaking of which, he really owes his parents a lot in this regard.

It is also thanks to his parents who are so enlightened that they have never forced him on this kind of thing before.

However, it is worth mentioning that although Xu Lei has become a mechanical lifeform due to physical problems, when he was with Chen Shihe, he had no intention of nurturing the next generation. gene.

At that time, I also considered that my physical fitness was declining, so I did this.

After all, he has even mastered the gene cloning technology, and it is only that simple to store the genes.

Now Chen Shihe wants to use the stored genes to conceive a new life, which is a very feasible way. Although Xu Lei is not yet ready to be a father, but thinking about the future life of Chen Shihe and his parents, he finally nodded and chose to agree.

"As long as you are willing and ready, then I will support you."

"Thank you."

Originally, Chen Shihe was really afraid that Xu Lei would disagree.

So after hearing the exact answer, he immediately hugged Xu Lei excitedly.

Immediately after dealing with these matters, Xu Lei stopped hesitating too much, and returned to Earth Star after a few words of comfort to his parents.

three days later.

When everything is ready.

Xu Lei also entered the control room of the curvature lightspeed spacecraft of the Golden Crow.

On the entire spaceship, apart from Xu Lei, there are only a few energy weapons and a few Qiankun No. [-] micro-scale nuclear fusion devices, which are equivalent to a backup power supply for myself.

It is in case of emergency.

Mainly after merging the living gold, Xu Lei's body has been improved in an all-round way, and at the same time, his energy consumption is also greater.

In this case, a few more nuclear fusion devices must be prepared.

It can only be said that the tiny Qiankun No. [-] nuclear fusion device built by Xu Lei still has limited energy and needs reactive substances.

If it is replaced with an antimatter energy device to provide energy for the body, it will basically never need to be replaced.

The device itself can collect ions in the space to react and release energy.

The kind that doesn't run out.

As for the farewell event, only representatives of the alliance councilors, Lei Zhan, Zhang Jingtong, and people from the company followed through the remote live broadcast, and ordinary people outside did not know what happened.

But maybe it was a brand new experience, Xu Lei didn't show any sadness.

As the hatch on the curvature lightspeed spacecraft of the Golden Crow began to slowly open, Xu Lei also decisively activated the spacecraft.

"Star pupil."

"The company and the earth star will leave you alone."

Through remote communication, finally issued an order with Xingtong, and the Golden Crow was also slowly launched into the sky under strong power.

After completely leaving the building, it disappeared from everyone's sight almost in the blink of an eye.

Xingtong, who had been standing upstairs all along, looked up at the spaceship that had disappeared long ago, and after a long time, he retracted his gaze and whispered to himself: "Don't worry, boss, I will protect everything you have."

at the same time.

The representatives of the alliance councilors in Lunar Sun City and Mars City inevitably felt a little sad when they saw this scene.

I don't know whether Xu Lei's trip is good or bad.

Of course, Chen Shihe and Xu Lei's parents must be the ones who are most worried.

But on the other hand, Xu Lei's trip to Proxima Centauri is also a stimulus to the alliance. Without its backbone, it must focus more on the solar system defense belt and a larger fleet.

In the future, this will be an important force against the Herald Empire fleet.

Anyway, it has to be both.

As for Xu Lei, after the Golden Crow left the planet and entered space in a very short period of time, the antimatter engine and the curvature space engine began to play their functions, making the spacecraft continue to accelerate.

Until the space where the spaceship was located was forbidden relative to the spaceship, Xu Lei understood that the Golden Crow had entered the speed of light state.

Perhaps Xu Lei's body is very strong now, and he didn't feel much change in the spaceship.

However, at a distance of about four light years, the Golden Crow can reach it in just a few or dozens of hours after entering the state of light speed or even superluminal speed, which is really hard to believe.

I am afraid that even for human civilization ten years ago, it is impossible to believe that one day human beings will be able to fly at the speed of light.

In addition, Xu Lei is also quite fortunate.

Since the Golden Crow was accelerating and officially entered the speed of light state, the spacecraft did not have any unexpected problems.

It shows that this curvature spacecraft has basically reached the level of collections in science and technology museums.

Of course, the completion of this mainly depends on the tens of thousands of Galaxy coins.

that's it.

With the rapid movement of space, Xu Lei is getting closer and closer to the neighboring galaxy, but whether he can find the location of the star gate is still a difficult problem.

This should take Xu Lei a lot of time to find.

Fortunately, as a mechanical life form, he is not afraid of landing on a completely unfamiliar planet.
