Chapter 636 “Voice” in the Starry Sky
The federal plan was divided into two parts.
The first part is naturally a defense plan to ensure the security of the homeland and the safety of a large number of non-combatants; and the other part is naturally a foreign war plan.
In the past month or so, the Federation has built a batch of new detection spacecraft, which quickly flew out from the Tianyu 2 star system, entered space, and spread to the surrounding areas. These detection spacecraft were built for special functions. It has the characteristics of high efficiency and concealment, and its purpose is to find the civilization of other contestants around it.
This time, the "surroundings" defined by the federal military department are civilizations within the range of twenty to fifty light years outside the Tianyu 2 star system where the federation is located.
Avoid fighting near Tianyu 2 and attract the attention of other civilizations. Twenty to fifty light years is considered an ideal location.
The head of the federal military said: "According to our war plan. Our detectors will search for planets or fleets of other contestant civilizations within this range based on the detection equipment they are equipped with. Once found, we may set out to harvest Contribute! ”
This is the Confederacy's war plan.
Lin Qun also knew about this, and he also recognized the judgment and planning made by the federal military. But he also knew that the dozens of unmanned detectors sent by the federation were placed between 20 and 50 light years away. Within the range, it is no different from dozens of needles thrown into the sea. Even with the latest technology from the Federation, it will probably take a long time to find other participating civilizations and fleets.
Lin Qun also believes that at this stage, I am afraid that most civilizations are suddenly involved in the battlefield of galaxy-level civilizations. Their choices at this moment should be similar to human civilizations, choosing to hide themselves and wait and see the situation instead of taking action.
In this way, the possibility of collisions and wars in the short term should not be very high.
The sky is filled with stars.
Lin Qun stood in front of his house behind Tianpu City.
Gaze at the stars.
The stars seemed to be staring at him.
There was a dead silence, like a dark tomb.
The Federation thus entered the era of war on the battlefield of galactic civilizations.
But the starry sky in front of him was extremely quiet, as if nothing had happened.
Lin Qun turned around and returned to his room.
This time, he directly devoted himself to training on the New Blue Star, aiming to reach a higher level of sword control.
Lin Qun has now officially entered the elixir formation stage.
His multiple strengths are superimposed, and his strength is definitely not weak at the level of the evolver, but this is still not enough for Lin Qun. His goal is the source energy level, or even dominance.
At present, the galaxy-level civilization battlefield has begun. Although it may be full of crises, it will take time for such a huge battlefield to actually start a war. Therefore, I am afraid it will still be a long time before humans actually start a war. Even if they want to start a war, they need to find the right one. It is difficult for other contestants who are targets to be civilized, so Lin Qun does not need to prepare nervously all the time. The key is to seize the time to improve.
Therefore, not only did he choose to continue investing in improving his own strength, but so did other strong men in the federation.
Take the time to continue practicing.
Huo Yan, Li Jie and other people who have the potential to break through to the level of evolution have never stopped, hoping to achieve the level of evolution as soon as possible.
They are in Tianpu City. When Lin Qun has time, he will go there occasionally to give guidance or input dark energy to help guide them. In this regard, his help is very helpful to Huo Yan, who also practices sword control. , but it actually didn’t help Li Jie much. He took a different path from Lin Qun. However, compared with Huo Yan, Li Jie is still the person closest to the evolver. Even Huo Yan is said to be close to the evolver, but Lin Qun can see clearly that Huo Yan is currently only at the third level of sword control. There is still a long way to go before one can become an evolved person by relying on sword-controlling skills to cultivate immortality.
In the wooden house, Chu Youwei was also practicing.
Currently, only she, Xia Qing and Lin Qun live here. Xia Qing often goes to Core City and Tianpu City. Most of the time, Lin Qun and Chu Youwei are here.
This kind of life is quite peaceful. Lin Qun and Chu Youwei can also exchange some understandings about evolvers and source energy levels, and complement each other.
In their free time, they can also cook and eat together.
Chu Youwei's cooking skills are good, especially home-cooked dishes. According to her, she has developed them in New Blue Star over the years.
Lin Qun has already mastered the art of fasting, and he can eat or not eat, but he likes this peaceful atmosphere.
Sometimes, Li Jie, Huang Qizheng and others would come and have a small gathering, waiting for the changes in the civilized battlefield to take place.
Other than that, Lin Qun was basically practicing.
Assault on the eighth level of swordsmanship.
It is particularly important to improve one's own combat power.
Lin Qun felt that his talent seemed to have increased, and it was obviously much better than when he first started practicing sword control. It should have become more and more difficult to practice, but it didn't. The only explanation was that his own qualifications had improved.
But talent is just a qualification, and it is impossible for it to become more and more powerful on its own. Lin Qun speculated that it might be because of the Xueyang Pill, Qiye Yinxuezhi, etc. he took. Lin Qun also speculated that it might also be because Because this time he broke through the seventh level of sword control, he absorbed the evil and vicious energy of the Zhuxian Sword and used it for himself, resulting in some strange changes that changed his qualifications.
In any case, this is a good thing so far. Lin Qun is more confident when he reaches the eighth level of sword control.
Lin Qun continued to practice non-stop and headed towards a higher realm.
Time flies. The human flagship is built, and the human fleet is officially formed.
The human detector gradually arrives at the designated location and continues outward...
Humanity is still preparing for war.
But the starry sky is still extremely quiet. It seems that the civilized battlefield has not happened at all. Human beings have not discovered other civilizations, and other civilizations have not discovered human beings. Everything is the same as the previous ten years.
The starry sky is so big that it may take years or decades for warships to transmit things that happen far away light years away to Tianyu 2. Under the time dilation of high-speed movement, the place where the war is going on may be very fierce, but the place where there is no war is peaceful and nothing can be seen.
Large-scale star wars, the vastness of time and space, as well as cosmic effects such as time expansion, will be a completely different experience for humans fighting on planets and in star systems.
War will evolve in invisible places, and human civilization will be like a star among the stars in the galaxy.
The old man, the supreme commander, predicted: "This war will be fast and slow, fierce and gentle. This is the real battle in the stars!"
And just like that...
One year has passed...
Two years...
Within the scope that humans can currently observe, it is still very peaceful. The opening of the new civilization battlefield does not seem to have brought about any changes. At least here, humans have not sensed it yet.
Some people have even relaxed and thought that war might not come because the universe is so big. Hiding in a corner, as long as you are not discovered, there may never be a war.
But some people in the human race are always nervous during these times.
Thank you for this.
He was once the head of the Federation Fleet and Starry Sky Intelligence Department, and now he has taken on a more arduous task, that is, the head of the Civilized Battlefield Early Warning Bureau of the Civilized Battlefield of Galaxy 613.
This early warning bureau is a newly established large department.
All Tianyu 2 has its personnel deployed, and the number of its staff reaches 3,000.
Xie Chengcheng is the person in charge. Their mission is to keep an eye on the stars. Look for goals, but beware of becoming targets yourself. Behind the Early Warning Bureau, there is the support of the entire federal scientific team. Any special situation in the universe discovered can receive the fastest response and support from the expert team.
It can be seen that the Federation attaches great importance to it - in starry sky war, it is crucial whether you discover your opponent first or whether you are discovered by your opponent first.
As the commander of civilization, the old man, the supreme commander, has obtained the only radar given by the civilized battlefield. However, the effectiveness of this radar is not absolute. It can only detect the movements of a certain scale of participating civilizations within ten light years. In other words, it It is impossible to detect small groups of alien civilization life, especially detectors.
Therefore, their early warning bureau is to discover these risks. At the same time, it is also tasked with finding the target contestant civilization for human beings to take the initiative in the future.
The dozens of probes previously dispatched are also within their jurisdiction.
It can be said that Lin Qun and other humans are able to handle their own affairs calmly because of the existence of Xie Cheng and the Early Warning Bureau, who silently undertake this part of the work.
Since the opening of Civilized Battlefield No. 613 was confirmed and the early warning bureau was established, Xie Cheng has personally been in charge of the early warning bureau every day.
Monitor everything personally.
Six months ago, the probe they sent to the edge of galaxy 613 sent back information.
As they expected, the edge of galaxy 613 has been blocked by the Kingdom of God. It seems that it can be traversed, but in fact it is impossible to traverse at all.
The latest chapter of this book
Take a look at the 16-9 book bar!
In the following six months, the detector at the edge of the galaxy did not return. Instead, it continued to explore along the edge of the galaxy blocked by the Kingdom of God to see if there were areas that were not sealed by the Kingdom of God.
After all, this time the battlefield of civilization is a spiral galaxy spanning tens of thousands of light years. In such a large range, some astrophysics experts believe that it is difficult for the Kingdom of God to achieve a 100% blockade. Maybe there are blockade loopholes in certain locations. , can directly penetrate the galaxy range.
Therefore, in the past six months, human galaxy edge detectors have been looking for possible blockade loopholes. However, Xie Cheng and human experts are just trying their luck. After all, humans only have this detection The device, and the galaxy is so big, maybe it won’t be found at all when it runs out of fuel and loses power.
But in the starry sky, everything is possible, and people hold on to the idea that if they can find it, they continue to work according to this instruction.
In the past two years, Xie Cheng and the staff he led have been working hard to not miss any information sent back by the many deep space early warning equipment and detectors deployed by humans, and they have never slackened off.
Because they all know that once a certain key information is missed, the entire human civilization behind them may be plunged into dire straits.
They are not only protecting human civilization, but also protecting their families.
However, as time goes by.
Xie Cheng felt more and more that his nerves could no longer be stretched.
Because the starry sky they saw, whether it was the deep space early warning equipment in hundreds of nearby astronomical units, or the detectors placed twenty to fifty light years away to search for the target contestant civilization, none of them returned any useful information.
Extremely quiet.
Every time he came to the rooftop from the command center and looked up at the endless silent starry sky above his head, Xie Cheng felt extremely small.
He is also an old man from the Federation who has come all the way from the Blue Star Level 3 Civilization battlefield to where he is today, but for the first time, he truly realizes the terrifying depth of the starry sky.
The civilized battlefield has clearly begun, but everything around is deathly silent.
It's like a quiet tomb, which makes people feel a sense of panic for no reason.
Normally, Xie Cheng shouldn't feel this way. This is space phobia. He has not entered space at all.
But sitting here, listening to the emptiness of the universe every day, yet straining his nerves, almost made him suffer from deep space fear.
He gave birth to many guesses...
Are other civilizations hiding away? Wenming, the other contestants, are also observing? Are you waiting and watching?
Or did they miss it? After all, their deployment looks perfect, but in fact there are loopholes everywhere. Because the universe is too big, no one can effectively deploy defenses within a light-year range. Their actual warning range is less than a hundred astronomical units, which may be terrifying. Alien civilizations have already spread all over the hundred astronomical units outside every corner that they can't see, like terrifying hunters carefully avoiding the hunter's traps and bells.
Or...
Has the Star Wars broken out and ended? All civilizations have been annihilated, but because they hid in the corner and did not participate in it, they knew nothing and discovered nothing?
In fact, the current galaxy 613 is already the tomb of civilization?
These ideas are not groundless, they come from the analysis of multiple situations by a team of experts.
The possibilities of some of these analyzes made Xie Cheng shudder.
Some people think that maybe the Kingdom of God or the evil super civilization alliance launched some kind of terrifying weapon that humans cannot understand, spreading at the speed of light and sweeping across the starry sky. All civilizations along the way were silently annihilated by this weapon, so the starry sky There was a dead silence, because the civilization that felt the war was dead, and those who could not feel it had no idea what was happening like them. When this weapon arrived, they had no time to do anything and became part of the dead silence.
The blow that spreads at the speed of light is destroyed when you see it, and there is no time to do anything.
Their human civilization will also die silently, being assimilated and swallowed up by this silent tomb.
Unknown and quiet.
Speculations fly.
This is another kind of horror.
Fortunately, Xie Cheng can still control himself.
In addition to these terrifying speculations, there is another most credible speculation, which is that the universe is too big. Unless there is a clear positioning, it will not be easy for any civilization to discover each other. Just like Blue Star successfully got rid of the third After the Three Cantilever Overlords, they had been hiding here for ten years before encountering the arrival of Elena and others. The reason why they came to Tianyu 2 was not entirely a coincidence, but because they were both human beings, and Elena There are also speculations and records in the star map of Tianyu 2 that there may be habitable planets on Tianyu 2. Therefore, the opening of the civilized battlefield may accelerate the collision of civilizations, but the collision of civilizations will definitely not be as violent as the third-level civilized battlefield and the second-level civilized battlefield.
Silence is normal and the universe is not destroyed.
Xie Cheng tried his best to suppress his random thoughts and abide by his responsibilities and position. He must be worthy of his position, worthy of the trust of the old man, the supreme commander, and even more worthy of his own civilization.
He knew that they were the first humans to face the starry sky, and they must overcome themselves and adapt to all this.
And on this day.
It has been two years and one month since the opening of the special civilization battlefield in galaxy 613. Human Blue Star time.
The command center of the Early Warning Bureau discovered a special signal.
That is the "voice" in the stars.
The tranquility between humans and Tianyu 2 was broken at this moment——
It was discovered by the hidden early warning equipment deployed by humans in space. The electromagnetic wave ran non-stop at the speed of light for about 4,600 seconds before being received by the command center of the Early Warning Bureau.
That was an alien civilization that broke into the realm of 100 astronomical units around the Tianyu 2!
They were missed by the range survey within 1,000 AU, but were discovered when they entered the precision alert range of 100 AU.
Xie Cheng didn't know whether he was nervous or relieved, but he responded rationally and said: "Analyze its movement and location in multiple directions. We must find out its current real-time location as soon as possible - report it to the fleet command center immediately and notify the highest authority. Your Excellency, Commander, and Mr. Lin!”
