I, revise the agreement and hand it over to the country

"After we finish exploring the next galaxy, we can go home."

Scientists all over the ship showed relaxed expressions.

Su Ling stretched her waist and said with a smile: "Captain, what you said is not unlucky at all, it's like setting a flag."

"It's more than a standing flag." Jiang Wen laughed out loud, "This is simply a standard death flag."

"Indeed, after the war, you go home and get married or something."

Liu Xiaoliu glared at him: "If I don't say that, what else can I say? How about you come?"

Su Ling stuck out her tongue, turned around and looked at the data on the holographic screen seriously.

Liu Xiaoliu hesitated, "Why don't we go back first, we have already penetrated into the universe, according to calculations, this galaxy is 18 light-years away from our home, 4 hops of galaxy nodes, it will take a long time to go home time."

Although Su Ling and Jiang Wen looked like they were just joking and talking to her.

But as the captain and chief scientist of a scientific research ship, she would inevitably overthink it.

Qiu Baiyu once told her that the universe is mysterious and dangerous, and she couldn't help but just leave the hyperspace channel, and there was a Leviathan (another name for a huge space creature) waiting on the opposite side.

At that time, it was too late to run.

So Liu Xiaoliu thought about it, why not go back first.

Wait for the 'flag effect' to go away and come back...

Her words stunned everyone on board.

Su Ling subconsciously said: "Captain, are you afraid?"

Snapped!

Liu Xiaoliu slapped Su Ling on the head.

"What are you talking about?" She said angrily, "How can I be afraid, if I am afraid, will I still come to act as a forward investigator?"

"That……"

"I'm definitely not afraid, but I have to be responsible for everyone. If the investigation continues, the probability of encountering danger will increase. It's better to stop first. This is also for the sake of everyone's safety."

"Captain, don't underestimate us." Jiang Wen said: "If you don't believe me, do a vote on the whole ship's broadcast to see if more people want to go back, or do you want to finish exploring first and then go back?"

"That's a good idea."

Liu Xiaoliu's eyes lit up, and then broadcast to the whole ship.

"Now let me tell you something. Considering that we have been out for a long time, it will take a period of continuous practice to go back now. In addition, if we explore new galaxies, it may take us about two years to return home, so I want to know What do you think, do you want to continue the investigation, or go home now? You can input your thoughts into the ship voting system for voting, and I will handle it tomorrow."

The broadcast reached everyone's ears, and the crew members who were planning to go to the next galaxy slowly began to have other ideas.

"It's true that we haven't been home for a long time. The last time we went home was after exploring the Southern Galaxy."

"That's right. At that time, the design drawings of the Nuwa development ship hadn't been released yet. Now everyone has landed on Nantianmen Star."

"The most important thing is that we are 4 galaxy nodes away from our home galaxy. It will take half a year just to go back, right?"

"Based on the current propeller speed and acceleration, it won't take half a year, but it will still take at least five months to get to the Solar System, disembark and go home...it will indeed take about half a year."

"..."

Everyone talked a lot, and in the words, most of them looked homesick.

Although the communication equipment on the research ship allows them to contact their families on the ground in most cases.

But after all, I haven't been home for a long time, and homesickness is a plot engraved in the bones of most Chinese people.

Just when everyone was ready to vote, driven by homesickness, an old professor suddenly stood up and said, "Quiet!"

After everyone quieted down, the old professor said: "Our original plan was to explore the galaxy in front of us and then go back for repairs. How can we make random plans? We should first ask the captain why we disrupted the plan. We need to know the situation to make a decision, rather than being guided by the captain to choose to suspend the investigation and return!"

The old professor's words were like enlightenment, and immediately woke up the homesick people.

Yup!

The original plan was to go back after exploring the previous galaxy.

The captain Liu Xiaoliu suddenly said that he wanted to go back when he was about to come to the hyperspace channel, and asked everyone to vote. He must have encountered some difficulties and deliberately led everyone to be homesick, and then chose to go home without hesitation!

So everyone had doubts, opened the communication in the ship, and directly questioned Liu Xiaoliu.

"Captain, why did you go home suddenly? Our original plan was to go back after exploring the galaxy in front of us!"

"Yes, is there any difficulty? Or what exists in that galaxy? You can't hide it from everyone!"

"..." Liu Xiaoliu.

What difficulties can I have?

If I can know what is in that galaxy, am I still like this?

Seeing everyone's generous appearance, Liu Xiaoliu couldn't tell them anything. He was afraid that the flag would come true, so he gave up, so he wanted to go back.

By the way, Liu Xiaoliu also used his eyes to warn Su Ling and Jiang Wen, as well as several crew members in the command room who heard the conversation between the three, telling them not to talk nonsense.

The warning in her eyes still had some effect... Everyone was holding back their laughter and didn't speak.

The brain was running fast for a while, before Liu Xiaoliu smiled, coughed lightly, and said slowly: "There is no difficulty, we don't know what there is in the galaxy. I think we have been out for a long time, and everyone is homesick. That's why the vote was launched."

As she said that, she looked at the people who contacted her on the holographic projection, and said, "Don't you all miss home at all?"

"miss you!"

There were countless voices in unison on the communication.

Then, someone said: "However, it has been out for so long anyway, and it is not too late. Why not go back after completing the survey of the galaxy that is planned, so as not to waste time later."

"That's right, it's a waste of time to go back after only investigating a few galaxies. It's better to investigate the one in front of you. I remember that the moon base is developing a new thruster. Now we can't install it when we go back. We have to run again at that time." It’s a waste of time, why don’t you investigate the galaxy in front of you first!”

"..." Liu Xiaoliu.

What else can I say.

"Vote."

The next day, the voting results came out, and more than 90% of the people chose to move on.

"Forget it, let's go home after investigating this galaxy."

Chapter 277 Encounter! And Mutual Taunt

"Fortunately, after entering the galaxy, there was no danger."

After passing through the hyperspace channel, Liu Xiaoliu was slightly relieved to see that there was no Leviathan in front of him.

The thing she fears the most is that when she first comes out, she will encounter the kind of giant creatures that Qiu Baiyu once said are bigger than satellites or even planets.

In that case, the entire scientific research ship may encounter an accident.

Fortunately, there is no such problem.

"So what are you worried about, Captain?"

There was no problem after passing through the hyperspace channel, Su Ling couldn't help but smiled narrowly.

Because of Liu Xiaoliu's sudden action on the Lingxiao scientific research ship, everyone was actually quite nervous before passing through the hyperspace channel. After arriving at the destination and finding that there was no problem, everyone was relieved.

"Su Ling, I think the current mission indicators of our in-depth planetary survey are still a bit poor. Sometimes the artificial intelligence survey makes mistakes. We should send some people to investigate the rocky planet, right?"

Su Ling was taken aback, "Ahaha, what the captain said is right, but such an important matter still needs to be considered, that, I'll go to work first, you guys talk."

As Su Ling said, she immediately ran to her workstation, pretending that she was serious about her work.

Just as Liu Xiaoliu was about to say something, suddenly, an alarm sounded from the ship's early warning system.

"An unknown entity flying at the speed of light has been discovered. It is initially judged to be an alien civilization ship. Please pay attention to the investigation!"

"Alien civilization ship?"

Liu Xiaoliu and a group of scientists and crew immediately came to the heart of command.

"Present the specific situation on the holographic image."

"Simulating... the simulation is complete!"

It didn't take long for the model of the alien ship detected by the sensor to appear in front of everyone.

"The model of this ship..."

Liu Xiaoliu fell into deep thought, and then realized, "Academician Qiu seems to have entered it!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the ship's intelligent AI revealed the truth.

"After comparing the models, it is confirmed that this spaceship is a scientific research vessel of the 'Starfish Empire'. The mainstream attitude of this alien civilization towards other civilizations is xenophobia. Please treat it with caution."

"It really is the Starfish Empire."

Liu Xiaoliu immediately reported the discovery of the Starfish Empire research ship to Ersh.

Then she pondered for a moment, "But it's okay, if it's just a scientific research ship, there is no danger. Even if the opponent's scientific research ship is armed, it won't make it impossible for us to escape."

According to Qiu Baiyu’s data uploaded to the Aerospace Data Storage Center, the Starfish Empire’s scientific research ship does not carry any active attack equipment. Similar to the Lingxiao scientific research ship, it only carries escape equipment.

In other words, if they encounter danger, the other party will only be able to quickly get out of danger and return to their territory, just like the research ship Lingxiao, without the ability to fight back.

If that's the case... then there's no problem.

Just as he was thinking, the Lingxiao scientific research ship received a communication signal from the Starfish Empire scientific research ship.

"The signal was deciphered successfully, is it displayed?"

"Show it and see."

Thanks to Dongyuan's research on the Starfish Empire, it only takes a few seconds for Dongyuan to decipher the signal of the Starfish Empire and know what they want to say.

It didn't take long for AI to present the signal text sent by the starfish empire research ship in front of everyone.

"What lowly alien spaceships are you? Hurry up and report your name!"

"..."

The appearance of this text immediately silenced everyone in the scientific research ship who saw the signal.

"Really, the starfish style as always." Liu Xiaoliu shook his head.

"How should we respond to them?" Su Ling asked.
