Wander! Blue Star People

"The space jump program is starting. Crew members with physical fitness below the β level, please return to your seats. Jump countdown 20, 19, 18"

MOSS's voice rang out everywhere in the spacecraft.

The crew members who had just woken up from the hibernation capsule looked at each other, and then lay back in the hibernation capsule obediently, and manually closed the hatch for themselves.

They did not have such good physical fitness as Liu Peiqiang.

Having just woken up from the hibernation capsule, their heads were still a little dizzy, so they did not resist the load of the space jump.

The space was visibly distorted in front of the spacecraft.

After the countdown returned to zero, the spacecraft drove straight into the distortion area and disappeared without a trace.

The superluminal technology that was out of reach in the universe of "The Three-Body Problem" was just an ordinary deep space movement technology for the United Government.

The singer did not realize what consequences his glance at Liu Peiqiang would cause.

He was still humming his favorite ancient ballad.

Although the scene in this ballad cannot be reproduced in a universe reduced to three dimensions, it carries his yearning for the beautiful past, the wonderful era when he could scoop up a handful of time and give it to his lover.

Time passed silently.

Suddenly, he found that a strange space distortion occurred near him. The range of the space distortion was very small, but it was very close to him, almost touching his spaceship.

"What is it?"

The singer was a little curious. He thought, could it be that a curled up four-dimensional space happened to unfold nearby?

He did not get close to observe.

He immediately turned the spaceship away from the distorted area.

Curiosity kills.

Normally, a curled up four-dimensional space cannot unfold by itself in a natural state. If it unfolds, there must be some civilization involved.

This civilization may not still exist.

But they may have placed something in the four-dimensional space, such as bombs of various powers.

"Abnormal gravitational field detected!"

"No escape!"

"Warning! Abnormal gravitational field detected!"

"The spaceship cannot escape!"

A shrill alarm suddenly sounded in the singer's ears.

Oops!

The singer's heart skipped a beat.

He couldn't remember the last time he had this feeling, maybe when he was assigned to the position of cleaner.

"Why am I so unlucky?"

The singer felt like he was going to die.

He felt that he might have stepped on a space torpedo deployed by a certain civilization. First, it was a strong gravitational confinement, and then it released an explosion to destroy the imprisoned object. This was a very common routine.

Their civilization would deploy such space torpedoes in battles with other civilizations, but they were not so advanced, the gravitational confinement would not be so strong, and the bomb itself would not be hidden outside the main dimension.

In an instant, strong negative emotions flooded into the singer's mind.

Unlucky!

Unlucky!

Unlucky!

The universe is so vast, why did I step on a torpedo?

The singer did not condemn the civilization that might have deployed the torpedo. Death is the main theme of the universe. If he was killed, he could only blame himself for being weak, just like those weak civilizations he had cleaned up.

"Elder, did you notice me here?"

The singer gave up struggling.

He was going to leave a last word, which was to warn his fellow tribesmen to pray to the gods more often. If he prayed to the gods every day, he might not be so unlucky today.

"I saw it." The elder's voice sounded in the spaceship, "The gravitational field is very strong, almost comparable to a white dwarf. The spaceship engine is completely paralyzed. I can only wish you good luck."

The singer quickly made his last words, and then he asked: "What will happen next? Will civilization avenge me?"

"No." The elder's answer was very cold.

The singer is just a cleaner, belonging to the lowest level of the entire civilization. Civilization will not make a big fuss for a cleaner.

Perhaps from the standpoint of hospice care, the elder explained: "There is no other civilization nearby. What killed you was a mine left by a civilization who knows how long ago. Even if I want to avenge you, I don't know when I can find that civilization."

"Of course, think optimistically, maybe this is not a bomb."

The singer sighed in his heart.

Not a bomb?

How can there be a gravitational field confinement if it is not a bomb?

"Or maybe this bomb has been in disrepair for a long time, and only the gravitational field is left, without the explosion part." The elder comforted.

This is more reliable.

The singer stopped talking, he stared at the distorted area displayed on the screen, waiting for fate to come.

After a while, the explosion did not happen.

He saw a dark gray spaceship coming out of the space distortion and flying straight towards him.

"It's really not a bomb?" The singer was surprised.

He looked at the spaceship in confusion.

U.E.G

He saw these three letters on the outer shell of the spaceship.

He immediately searched for related patterns in the main core, but did not find any similar civilization signs.

This is a strange civilization.

"Elder!" He shouted.

The elder replied: "I'm watching."

Occasionally, a cleaner would be cleaned up by others while cleaning others, and he would watch the whole process without missing a frame, which was one of the few pleasures in his boring life.

This time was even more special.

The singer actually encountered a spaceship of another civilization at close range.

Not only that, this spaceship also traveled out of the twisted space. What kind of technology is this?

Is there a small universe hidden nearby?

Did the other party appear at this time? Did it happen that the energy to maintain the small universe was exhausted, or did he have other intentions?

Beep——

The screen in front of the singer suddenly went black, and when it lit up again, a figure appeared on it.

"Hello."

"I am Liu Peiqiang, and I am now talking to you on behalf of the United Government."

The singer was stunned.

Because the main core translated Liu Peiqiang's words.

"This language"

The singer couldn't help but tremble.

Isn't this language "I'm here", the other party is the civilization that challenged the dark forest!

The singer's brain was a little confused.

The signal he received at that time was 5.3 light years away. It hasn't been long since then. How did the other party suddenly appear in front of him?

The singer didn't think of superluminal technology.

For the "Three-Body" universe, superluminal technology is a broken old dream.

"We hope to learn some common sense of the universe from you. In return, we can provide you with a technology that you don't have at our discretion." Liu Peiqiang spoke slowly.

The foundation of the United Government is self-evident.

For a civilization that is still engaged in cleanup work, any cutting-edge technology that the United Government can come up with is an epoch-making technology that this civilization may not be able to break through even after tens of thousands of years of painstaking research.

The powerful gravitational field bound the singer's spacecraft.

The singer had no right to refuse the deal.

He was like a small insect that fell into a spider web, and his life and death depended entirely on Liu Peiqiang. (End of this chapter)
