March 7050 of the Star Era.
A scientific research spacecraft lies across the river system 20 billion light years east of the origin river system.
"OK, successful."
The academician from the Imperial Academy of Engineering, looking at the news of the data upload, burst into tears and his voice was slightly choked.
How many years has their project team been established?
Finally succeeded.
The other academicians hugged each other to celebrate their victory.
Extracting matter from a black hole was successful.
The ideas that represent them are not wrong.
For this reason, let them die now.
They live to witness the blooming of their thoughts and prove that their theories are correct.
"After two rounds of testing, there are no abnormalities in the data."
"Everyone, we can return."
The chief engineer clenched his fists and stared at the black hole ahead. Black hole, you have been conquered by us.
You will witness the rise of an empire.
The imperial scientific research spacecraft began to accelerate, getting rid of the gravitational pull of the black hole, and left the river system.
"boom."
Just evacuated this river system.
A beam of light came from nowhere and hit the shield of the scientific research spacecraft hard.
Immediately afterwards.
It was tens of thousands of streams of light pouring in.
The scientific research spacecraft was destroyed in the starry sky before it had time to organize an escape or even launch a counterattack.
From the beginning to the end, there was no sign of the enemy, as if he was attacked by a ghost.
…
Origin river system.
Planetary system of origin.
Origin star, Imperial Palace.
The secretary hurriedly ran in from outside the imperial study, "Your Majesty, something serious has happened."
"Um?"
Yang Yue, Princess Muying, who was taking over the throne in place of her father, raised her head and looked at her secretary. An aura of calmness and self-respect emanated from her.
After hundreds of years in power, she has matured.
"Your Highness."
When the secretary saw that Her Royal Highness was actually in charge, he adjusted his mood and saluted respectfully.
"What's the matter?"
Princess Mu Ying saw this and asked.
"Your Highness, the latest news is that the Imperial scientific research spacecraft has lost contact in the Valeria River system. The Imperial Academy of Engineering has requested military intervention."
The secretary immediately informed Her Royal Highness the princess of the information she was about to receive.
"The scientific research spacecraft lost contact?"
Hearing this, Her Royal Highness the Princess looked strange.
Thousands of years have passed since the scientific research spacecraft lost contact.
But now that the empire almost dominates the universe, can the scientific research spacecraft still lose contact?
Are you kidding me?
"Are you sure that the scientific research spacecraft has not entered some areas where the magnetic field is unbalanced, resulting in the inability to contact?"
Princess Mu Ying frowned.
In a star field with an unbalanced magnetic field, even if the empire is currently at the peak of level three civilization, it cannot solve the connection problem.
Therefore, it is normal to be unable to connect when entering certain areas where the magnetic field is unbalanced.
"No, according to the Imperial Academy of Engineering's application, when the scientific research spacecraft was uploading data, it suddenly disconnected data transmission and sent out a distress signal."
the secretary said.
"Let Star Fortress immediately send a fleet to the Valeria River System to check the situation."
"You want to see people when you are alive, you want to see corpses when you die."
Immediately, Her Royal Highness the Princess gave a plan.
If data transmission is interrupted, it must not be due to some magnetic field imbalance.
Moreover, it is impossible for a scientific research spacecraft to go to a place where the magnetic field is unbalanced and then transmit data.
"By the way, what kind of engineering project is the missing scientific research spacecraft?"
Suddenly, Her Royal Highness the Princess thought of something.
The most important point at the moment is to know what kind of scientific research spacecraft we lost.
If a very important scientific research spacecraft is involved, then if it is found out, it will definitely be a super war between civilizations.
She still had to ask clearly about this.
"The spacecraft of the black hole project team."
the secretary said.
"???" Her Royal Highness the Princess suddenly stood up from her seat and looked at the secretary in front of her in disbelief.
"What did you say? The scientific research spacecraft of the black hole project team?"
The black hole project team has up to ten star academicians and one two-star academician.
They are all the top scientific researchers in the universe.
Did you tell me that the lost spacecraft was the black hole project research team of the Imperial Academy of Engineering?
"Yes, the news reported by the Imperial Academy of Engineering is the black hole project team, and they have obtained breakthrough technology that can extract matter from black holes. If they make further breakthroughs, they can extract resources from black holes."
The secretary nodded solemnly, indicating that what he said was correct.
"How much did the Imperial Star Academician lose?"
Her Royal Highness the Princess asked tentatively.
It is best that the ten star academicians of the empire should not be on that spaceship.
otherwise.
The Empire's progress in the black hole project will be...
"Academician Qian Lin, chief engineer of black holes, including nine other star academicians!"
The secretary said fearfully: "Ninety percent of the academicians of the black hole project team are on the scientific research spacecraft..."
"It's over."
Hearing this, Princess Mu Ying's face turned pale.
The chief engineer is gone.
Ninety percent of the star academicians of other black hole projects are here.
The empire's progress on the black hole project has stalled.
The black hole project was an important part of advancing to level four civilization, but it fell apart at this time.
"Notify Star Fortress and immediately dispatch the Sixth United Fleet to investigate for me."
"Give Dilin the power to act expediently."
Princess Muying Yang Yue was really frightened.
The black hole project was faulty, and my father blamed it, what would be the consequences.
"promise."
The secretary heard the words of Her Royal Highness the Princess and bowed to accept the order.
After the secretary retreats.
Princess Muying returned to her position as the emperor.
"Uncle Long."
Her Royal Highness the Princess called out with a cold face.
"Not allowed, Your Highness."
Quietly, Long Yuan appeared in front of Her Royal Highness the Princess and said in panic.
According to seniority, Her Royal Highness the Princess is older than herself.
According to her status, she is an imperial princess and she is a minister.
"Let the secret guards protect the boss's safety at all times and prohibit her from setting foot on the scientific research spacecraft."
Her Royal Highness Princess Yang Yue gritted her teeth and said.
The boss she calls is naturally her eldest sister.
She is also engaged in scientific research.
"promise."
Long Yuan said respectfully.
"Call, from now on, all project teams of the Imperial Academy of Engineering who go out to conduct data exploration or experiments must apply and be protected by the fleet from the Star Fortress before they can go to the universe to conduct data exploration and experiments."
"From now on, all project teams must retain more than half of their academicians when conducting experiments."
Princess Muying Yang Yue said in a deep voice.
She would never allow this to happen again.
This wave is really confusing.
The empire's technology in the black hole field fell apart instantly.
If such a loss occurs again, it will be a huge disaster for the empire.
"promise."
Long Yuan saw that Her Highness the Princess had no more orders and disappeared quietly into the royal study.
Princess Muying lost her mood when reviewing the documents.
So annoying.
Who would have thought that something like this would happen?
