Planet Escape

"Star No. 1 has been jettisoned, the formation force field has been adjusted, and the galaxy battleship is activated. △￠4△￠5△￠中△￠文,"

After jettisoning a star, the Galactic Warship set off on its way toward the Andromeda galaxy.

The star that remained in the void of the universe exploded in a supernova a month later, and finally became a white dwarf.

Xiang Gan watched the scene of the supernova explosion through the detector, feeling very helpless. With the current level of technology of the Earth Federation, it is still impossible to make 100% use of star energy. This star, which was abandoned halfway, is almost reaching the critical point of becoming a red giant.

Even if bound by super strong magnetic and gravitational fields, this expansion cannot be prevented. So before this star becomes a red giant, it can only be abandoned and then detonated.

Originally, the energy used by the Earth Federation was extracted equally from all the stars, but now it has been changed to several types of energy extracted from one star. So after the Galactic Warship travels 3,000 light years, a star is scrapped.

This star that can be detonated is only the first, but not the last. During the next interstellar journey, the Earth Federation will abandon a star every 3,000 light-years.

In fact, the abandoned star can be used as a bomb, using the violent energy of the supernova explosion to hinder the civilization behind.

But Xiang Gan did not do that, not because of his kindness. It's just that it offends people too much. If the Earth Federation offends all the civilized races in the entire Milky Way, even if it reaches the Andromeda Galaxy, the Earth Federation will not be confused.

So the civilized races that follow the Earth Federation, every few decades. You can see a supernova explosion. Countless halos can be seen in the entire void of the universe, and these halos are connected one by one. The halo is largest near the Milky Way and smallest near the Andromeda Galaxy. A spectacle was formed in the cosmic void.

This scene has been maintained for 1,000 years, and it did not disappear until the Earth Federation traveled 200,000 light years. Except for the 20,000 light-years before the beginning, the Earth Federation has abandoned a total of 60 stars along the way.

Why is the Earth Federation not abandoning the stars in the place of 200,000 light years, that is because another wormhole appeared in that place.

When the Earth Federation discovered this wormhole, the top management of the entire Earth Federation breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, according to the energy consumption rate of the Earth Federation, when the Earth Federation sails to a position 1.65 million light-years away from the Milky Way at most, it will consume all the stars. The Earth Federation will not be able to maintain 200 times the speed of light.

It is also impossible to reach the Andromeda Galaxy within 10,000 years.

Therefore, the high-level officials of the entire Earth Federation are in a hurry, especially after sailing 150,000 kilometers, there is not a day when Xiang Qian does not ask about the detection results.

After all, no one knows that the second wormhole is 200,000 light-years away from the exit of the first wormhole. Even at 200 times the speed of light, it took the Earth Federation more than 1,000 years to get here .

"Is there any result from the detector?" Xiang Gan would ask the first thing after waking up every morning.

"Boss, the probe hasn't sent back any messages yet."

"I see."

Neck dry after getting up and washing. Come to his office in the Earth Federation Building and let the starry sky display the star map.

This star map shows countless small light spots, these small light spots are the countless civilized races in the Milky Way, because every time the Earth Federation abandons a star. A batch of detectors will be released, so the situation in the rear can be grasped at the first time.

Now there are more than 700 civilized races closest to the Earth Federation. These civilized races are still more than 20,000 light-years away from the Earth Federation, in terms of time. That is to say, it will take more than a hundred years to get here.

Even if these civilized races want to detect the existence of wormholes, they need to be 6,000 light-years away from the wormhole. So now no civilized race in the entire galaxy knows the existence of the second wormhole.

As for the remaining civilized races, they are farther away from the Earth Federation. They are not a threat to the Earth Federation at all. Xiang Qian only needs to pay attention to the first batch of more than 700 civilized races.

Now the Earth Federation stops in front of the wormhole, waiting for the detector to play the news from the exit of the wormhole. If there is no danger, the Earth Federation will enter the wormhole as soon as possible.

However, it has been a year and a half since the probe entered the wormhole, but no news has been received yet. If there is no problem with the detector, then there is at least 100,000 light-years away from the exit of the wormhole.

Although the longer the distance spanned by the wormhole, the better news for all civilizations. But at the same time, the time it takes for the probe to return will be longer, which is not good news for the Earth Federation.

Now no one is sure what is at the exit of the wormhole, but according to the analysis of the think tank, the probability of danger at the exit of the wormhole is less than 10%, while the possibility of various resources is as high as 8% Ten, the rest is uncertainty.

I agree with this analysis item, but I agree with it. Before the probe sends back information, it is impossible for the Earth Federation to enter the wormhole because of a guess.

But the time waiting for the probe to send back the message is the time wasted by the Earth Federation.

After all, the Earth Federation must pass through the wormhole before the more than 700 civilized races behind can detect the wormhole. If there are resources at the exit of the wormhole, the Earth Federation needs to collect the resources needed by the Earth Federation in a hundred years. Then go right away.

Otherwise, a racial war will definitely break out for resources, and it will be an endless war.

I am also making an assumption that there is a wormhole every 200,000 light years, and each wormhole is a resource point. Then the time wasted by the Earth Federation in the first resource emperor, and the time it takes for the probe to send back a message, it is estimated that by the time the third wormhole persists, the current advantage of the Earth Federation for more than a hundred years will be offset .

At that time, it is very likely that a war will break out in the fourth wormhole because of resource problems.

This is what Xiang Gan does not want to see. Although the Earth Federation is confident of winning the race war, in the face of a war that is about the survival of the race, other civilized races will definitely work hard. The price may also be unwilling to bear.

Moreover, after reaching the Andromeda galaxy, they still don't know what kind of crisis they will face. It is very unwise to waste the potential of the entire race on competing for resources.

So now Xianggan is waiting for the news of the probe every day, and at the same time hopes that the first echelon behind can do something to delay the forward speed, although it is basically impossible to launch.

For a thousand years, the Earth Federation has consumed too many materials, but apart from energy consumption, the Earth Federation can still persist in other material consumption. So Xiang Gan has already figured out that once there are resources at the exit of the wormhole, the Earth Federation doesn’t need anything else, just pack up the stars and take away other resources as much as they can when packing up the stars.

"Xingkong, how much equipment has been replaced in the star system ring?" Xiang Gan asked the starry sky.

"Boss, twenty-eight percent have been replaced. According to your request and the current replacement speed, it will take five years and six months to complete the replacement."

"Well, is there anything else that needs to be addressed?"

"No other issues have been identified so far."

"Then you notify the equipment department and let them hurry up to build star confinement equipment and assembly equipment. I hope that when capturing stars again, the speed must be more than double that of before."

"Okay, boss."

In this way, the Earth Federation stopped in front of the wormhole to rest, while waiting for the probe to send back a message.

This wait is more than three years.

"Boss, the probe sent back a message that there is no danger at the exit of the wormhole, but there is a huge star system at the exit of the wormhole." Xingkong suddenly said to Xiang Gan that day.

"Immediately stick to all the equipment, and if there is no problem, set off immediately and enter the wormhole." Xiang Gan stood up immediately and said excitedly.

For this day, he had waited for more than three years, so it's no wonder he wasn't excited. (To be continued..)
