Chen Tiansheng and Yang Xue sat back to back and fell into silence for a long time.
I don’t know how long it took until Chen Tiansheng spoke first.
"In other words, the invasion of darkness is a natural selection and filter theory in the universe."
Putting all the arguments together, it finally makes sense.
"The universe is so big that the possibility of dark laws cannot be ruled out. We are afraid that a certain civilization will develop too fast and affect our own civilization, so there must be civilizations that actively hide themselves."
"But most civilizations still hope to establish communication, but this communication must be based on mutual equality."
"That's right, if advanced alien civilizations treat us like ants or backward and barbaric animals, they will not give us equal opportunities for dialogue."
Yang Xue tilted her head and looked at Chen Tiansheng.
"Should we go back?"
"No!"
Chen Tiansheng said categorically:
"It is known that the Galactic Federation is an interstellar federation composed of many advanced civilizations. At least it means that they do not respect the laws of darkness. As long as it is a federation, there must be a mechanism to join the federation."
"Even if advanced civilizations now think that we are just ants, I will prove to them that we are not ants and that we are qualified to stand opposite them and have equal conversations."
A long time after that.
When the two of them were eating, sleeping, and observing the dark universe, they were intensely discussing everything that might happen.
"According to the information Xu Wanqing gave me, there are hundreds of billions of galaxies in the universe, and the Milky Way is just a drop in the ocean. What kind of existence does the Galactic Federation count among them?"
Chen Tiansheng was eating spoonful after spoonful, then interrupted and asked:
"In the data, is there any description of a galaxy similar to the Earth?"
"Yes, based on a broad estimate of the data, there are almost 100 times as many terrestrial planets suitable for human survival as there are grains of sand on the Earth."
"Ouch!"
Chen Tiansheng said with emotion:
"Then I feel relieved, let's go and see the vast universe."
The two devoured their meal and went to the observation room to observe the universe.
"The galaxy we are going to now is Proxima Centauri, which is 4.5 light-years away from the solar system. It is a galaxy with three suns. The model predicts that the heat of the most distant planet beyond Proxima Centauri may be over 1,000 degrees. As long as it is dark , it will immediately drop to about minus 80 degrees."
"In an extremely cold or extremely hot living environment, there will be no life at all, let alone civilization."
"So it was discovered that there was space warping in the space and time around Proxima Centauri. It must have come from other advanced civilizations. If Wu Qi Ma Hei hadn't let it slip, we still don't know the existence of observers from the Galactic Federation."
Yang Xue asked doubtfully:
"Why does Wu Qi Ma Hei hide these things? I feel like it knows a lot, but it just doesn't say anything. Why?"
Chen Tiansheng responded: "It's not just black and white, Xu Wanqing also knows a lot, and she doesn't say anything."
"why?"
Chen Tiansheng thought for a while and said:
"Maybe it's because of the different heights of thoughts. Xu Wanqing has been in contact with the spirit ball for a long time, and his thoughts have become subtle and macroscopic. It's like what Wu Qi Ma Hei said, when a chick breaks its shell, it cannot be accessed by external forces, otherwise it will inevitably be destroyed. Died young.”
Yang Xue nodded silently.
"This is for our own good. If you don't want to say it, don't say it. Let's explore it ourselves."
When brushing your teeth and washing your face.
Yang Xue asked:
"When we go to contact the Galaxy Observers, what do we say when we meet?"
"It's early, why are you thinking so much?"
"You have to make some preparations. What if you don't think about your opening remarks in advance and they mistakenly think that we are dangerous and open fire on us?"
Chen Tiansheng spit out the toothbrushing water and said casually:
"If you don't have time to think about this, why not imagine what they look like? After all, they are alien creatures we have never seen before, right?"
Yang Xue bit her toothbrush and said, "Yes."
"Didi, didi..."
A shrill alarm sounded inside the spacecraft.
The two quickly ran to the cockpit, and the spacecraft assistant kept issuing warnings.
"Warning, warning, there is a dense group of meteorites ahead, please drive manually."
Chen Tiansheng jumped into the driver's seat and asked while controlling the spacecraft:
"Where are you?"
"We have reached the edge of the Oort cloud."
"So fast!"
He quickly put on his immersive glasses, and in front of his field of vision was a dense group of meteorites. The spacecraft was going very fast, and he was about to be mounted on it.
Chen Tiansheng didn't need to do anything, he just dodged sideways, and the spacecraft followed closely behind him, cleverly avoiding the meteorite in front of him.
This is thought immersion driving. There are no other complicated operations. You can control the entire spacecraft with your thoughts and perform any actions to avoid collisions.
Traveling at the speed of light, the spacecraft is extremely fast.
Although there are many meteorites and asteroids in the Oort Cloud, they are very wide and not as dense as the Kuiper Belt.
Chen Tiansheng dodged left and right to avoid the meteorite and devoted himself wholeheartedly to it.
Yang Xue's voice came to my ears.
"Could they be gray men, or octopus monsters, cartilaginous animals with many tentacles? Eh, it makes me sick just thinking about it."
Chen Tiansheng already had a sense of pictures. Without paying attention, a small meteorite failed to avoid it in time and collided with the top of the spacecraft. It was instantly shattered and vaporized by the hard shell of the spacecraft.
In Chen Tiansheng's field of vision, he saw the extent of wear and tear on the outer wall of the spacecraft, with not even a mark left, and then he relaxed.
Sit directly on the chair, cross your legs, and drive leisurely and casually.
"I don't think so. After all, the earth is in the Milky Way. Those advanced civilized creatures in the Galactic Federation are so close to us, so they might all look similar."
"Bang"
"Boom"
Ever since Chen Tiansheng was driving casually, the sound of impacting the outer wall of the spacecraft could be heard from time to time.
Yang Xue looked around nervously.
"Can you do it? If not, come back to me!"
Chen Tiansheng said casually:
"Don't worry, if you hit the sun, there won't be any damage to this super battleship. Don't forget, I personally supervised the construction of this."
Yang Xue rolled her eyes and asked:
"Were you this narcissistic before?"
Chen Tiansheng suddenly took off his glasses and looked at Yang Xue with burning eyes.
"You're driving, don't slip away!"
Chen Tiansheng warned:
"Be careful when you talk to me. You won't do it again."
Wear the immersion glasses again and resume normal driving.
Yang Xue patted her chest, sat next to Chen Tiansheng and said:
"Be narcissistic as long as you are narcissistic. At least it proves that you are confident and I am willing to believe you."
Chen Tiansheng blocked Yang Xue's shoulder, shook his head to avoid the large celestial body, and said casually:
"Actually, I have been thinking about the past during this period. When I went to rescue Xu Wanqing, I took you with me. Maybe so many trivial things would not have happened and I could have made up for your regrets."
"It's not too late now."
"Indeed, but this time life and death are uncertain, success or failure, just look at it... tremble!"
Chen Tiansheng made a large swing, and the spacecraft rotated rapidly in space, cleverly passing through the gap between the two celestial bodies.
"Whoosh"
The super battleship continued to race within the Oort cloud at the speed of light.
