Of course, Zhao Changxing could not confirm this possibility and confirmed that the black hole was not caused by natural causes but was controlled by humans. But he believes that this possibility does exist, and the probability is not low.
Moyun Litar civilization and human civilization may be destroyed by their own lack of concealment. Although the original deep space civilization developed to the peak of the second-level civilization without incident, this may also be due to the omissions of the Death Civilization, which is a sixth-level civilization.
After all, the ruins civilization has already made speculations about this, believing that even a sixth-level civilization cannot fully control its own territory.
Zhao Changxing knocked on the table lightly: "Hide yourself is the highest principle for surviving in this galaxy. According to this principle, even if we reach the Lakai 9352 galaxy, we must not stay there for too long. Not only that, but you must also be careful not to make too much noise during your stay.”
Zhao Changxing did not mention revenge against that death civilization. This is too far away. The main goal at this stage is to survive, just survive.
Everyone agreed with Zhao Changxing's words.
"Regarding the long-term strategy for future development, through deciphering the information of the ruined civilization, I believe that we should set the long-term navigation direction here."
Professor Li Qingcheng marked a location on the Milky Way panorama.
There is a star-sparse region between the Orion Arm, where the solar system is located, and the neighboring Perseus Arm.
There, it is at least a thousand light-years away from the solar system.
"According to the power distribution map of the Milky Way, this is the junction of the Death Civilization and the neighboring 'Destroyer' civilization. It is a remote area for these two sixth-level civilizations. Perhaps there, we can try our best to safe development.”
A distance of more than a thousand light years is obviously inaccessible to human civilization at this moment. But this is just a long-term strategic plan.
"I think that in this galaxy, our human civilization may not be the only low-level civilization that thinks this way. There may be many civilizations competing for the few stars and resources there. It may be the cemetery of civilizations."
Villagash murmured.
Zhao Changxing looked calm and did not express an opinion on this issue.
Professor Li Qingcheng's report lasted for a long time, and he reported the sorted information to the civilization leaders in as much detail as possible.
After the report, the civilized leaders left each other, each with a heavy look on his face.
In the empty main control room, Zhao Changxing quietly looked at the huge panoramic view of the Milky Way in front of him, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"Heh... can there be peace between civilizations with similar strengths?"
He shook his head slightly.
The long journey continues. After "opening and closing his eyes" and starting his half-year duty again, Dai Yunfei once again fell into this miserable time.
The busy work, endless troubleshooting, small resting space, slightly dirty air, sultry climate, and especially the bad food made him feel like he was in hell.
Yes, contrary to intuition, although the universe is cold and empty, after the Yuanhang spacecraft fell into the dilemma of insufficient resources and energy, the situation it faced was sweltering, not cold due to insufficient heating.
Because the heating of the entire Yuanhang spacecraft comes from the waste heat of the antimatter annihilation reactor. Moreover, this waste heat still has a lot of surplus after taking on the heating of the entire spacecraft, so it has to consume additional resources and radiate it into outer space through various means as much as possible.
Due to insufficient resources and energy, and insufficient heat dissipation efficiency, the spacecraft began to feel stuffy.
Like many of his companions, Dai Yunfei was suffering, waiting for the arrival of another hibernation.
This day finally arrived belatedly in front of Dai Yunfei. On this day, he swiped the certification card on the main console with ease. Listening to the voice of "Thank you for your contribution to civilization", he felt like the sound of nature.
"After hibernating this time, I will wake up after arriving in the galaxy, so I won't have to endure the torture anymore..."
Dai Yunfei thought happily.
That's certainly true at the moment. There were only about 30 years left before the voyage finally ended. The normal duration of hibernation this time is at least 40 years.
"At that time, a large amount of supplies will be replenished, the air will be fresh, the lighting will be sufficient, the temperature will be suitable, and most importantly, you can eat meat again..."
In the hibernation cabin, Dai Yunfei closed his eyes full of longing and lost consciousness. "The next moment", he regained consciousness and opened his eyes.
"Have you arrived in the galaxy? We need to start construction and start getting resource replenishment. Can we eat meat?"
Dai Yunfei held on to his body, which was weak after a long period of hibernation, and felt excited in his heart.
At this moment, a mechanical synthesized sound entered his ears.
"Hello, Engineer Dai Yunfei. Because the spacecraft has entered an emergency state at this moment, the third batch of 500,000 engineers, technical workers, logistics personnel, scientists, etc., including you, have all been awakened to participate in the emergency repair of the spacecraft. Mission. Now, please follow the instructions immediately and start physical recovery..."
Like a bucket of cold water poured down on his head, the excitement and expectation in Dai Yunfei's heart disappeared in an instant.
"Wha...what? Haven't arrived yet? The spacecraft has entered a state of emergency?"
He climbed up in a hurry, grabbed the guardrail in the gravityless hibernation room, and flew out in a hurry.
We haven't reached our destination yet, but we are almost there.
The Yuanhang spacecraft has entered a state of deceleration at this moment, and it is expected that in another 10 years, it will park in the orbit of the outermost planet of the Lakai 9352 galaxy, that is, Planet 3.
But... as the deceleration process started, the engine of the Yuanhang spacecraft once again entered full power operation. And this means that the occurrence of various failures within the spacecraft has once again entered an outbreak period.
In the Earth Age, airplanes are the safest in their cruising state. For a spacecraft, it is also safest to operate in an inertial navigation state.
The 100,000 spacecraft operation and maintenance personnel who remained awake could no longer support it after barely holding on for less than a year.
Zhao Changxing judged that if such overloaded operation continues, not to mention that people's physical health will be greatly damaged and their spirits may collapse. Even if people are robots and never tire, they will not be able to cope with such endless failures.
So a second batch of 200,000 operation and maintenance personnel were awakened. This allowed the Yuanhang spacecraft to be supported for another eight years.
It was eight years of continuous operation without hibernation and repair.
But now, the Yuanhang spacecraft cannot hold on again.
If there was no other way, Zhao Changxing would really not want to wake up more people. The reason is simple. Producing food and maintaining a life-sustaining environment also requires a lot of resources and energy. But now, I can't care anymore.
After learning all the causes and consequences, Dai Yunfei was filled with worries.
At this moment, the little fear and boredom in his heart had long disappeared.
Now is the most critical moment for the survival of human civilization! It's time for us to go up!
After passing the physical recovery period, Dai Yunfei immediately followed the arrangement and devoted himself to the process of eliminating fault alarms one after another.
Life is getting busy again, and it’s still hard—even harder than before.
Food quality has once again declined, and the proportion of starchy porridge has once again increased. Bathing is strictly prohibited, and even the amount of water you drink is strictly regulated.
Because water purification also requires energy. In order to save energy, water consumption can only be limited.
The air was still so hot and stuffy, and it started to smell a little bit stinky.
Part of these smells come from the body odor caused by people not taking showers for a long time. Another part of the reason is that the air circulation and purification system also strictly limits the power.
At this moment, the air circulation and purification system only maintains full power for filtration of various pathogens. The rest, such as odors and odors, can no longer be taken care of for the time being.
The most egregious thing is that people don't even have fixed beds to rest.
Because there is only one "roller" that is still open at this moment, and this one obviously cannot carry a population of up to 600,000, so the limited number of beds has become a rotation system.
Whenever Dai Yunfei finished his day's work and returned to his bed tiredly to sleep, the last person who rested on this bed had not yet woken up. He had to push the last person awake, and then fell down and fell asleep, ignoring the messy bed and the last person's body odor.
Then, not long after, the next person will come and push me awake, and I, with my messy hair, wash my face with gray water, and start a new day's work again.
At this moment, even Zhao Changxing and the civilized leaders were filled with a stench. Zhao Changxing's hair was even tangled, and later he had no choice but to shave his head bald regardless of his image.
He is the same as everyone busy in the spaceship at the moment. His cheeks were thin, his eyes were bulging and bloodshot, his face was pale and malnourished, and some parts of his body were swollen.
Everyone is gritting their teeth and struggling to support themselves.
Although life is difficult, the social order is still functioning well. Because everyone has seen with their own eyes that even leader Zhao Changxing and civilized leaders are living like this. Even because of their higher requirements, their living conditions are worse than themselves. So what is there to say?
Under such circumstances, the speed of the Yuanhang spacecraft was slowing down day after day.
Until one day, Xiao Xi reported a piece of news that Zhao Changxing had expected.
"Captain, the energy of the life-support system is insufficient. If we want to continue to ensure the minimum supply of energy and resources for the life-support system, we must divert the energy originally intended for decelerating the spacecraft. This will result in our inability to decelerate the spacecraft to the point where it enters three The extent of the planet’s orbit.”
