Under Chu Yunsheng's strange technological circle, and through the greedy efforts of generations of uncrowned kings, Yanxing's various technologies and talent reserves have become extremely numerous and abundant, and it can barely produce other parts besides the core, such as the outer shell of the spacecraft.
Chu Yunsheng's requirements were not high. Compared with the new ship, they could be considered extremely low. Although Yanxing had his technical support, the time was too short after all. At first, the new ship was only the simplest construction link, and it took a long time. In the decades since he went to Earth, the two were incomparable.
The young successor's name was Shang Yu, and he was very cooperative with Chu Yunsheng's requests. He probably regarded him as the "God of Plague" and wanted to send him away safely as soon as possible.
Naturally, the traditionalists strongly supported it, and the reflective ones who were at a low ebb were probably as cautious as him and began to actively support it, so that Yanxing had never done anything together like he did today.
When the construction of the spaceship officially started, Chu Yunsheng stopped showing up and concentrated on manufacturing the core part of the spacecraft. Shang Yu, the young and uncrowned king of the new generation, thought about it more and more, and felt more and more that Chu Yunsheng came just for the spaceship.
Moreover, the more he thought about it, the more terrifying and frightening he felt. The historical changes of the rock star for thousands of years seemed to be all arranged and imprisoned by this terrible life. From its appearance more than a thousand years ago, it had laid a secret for today. Given scientific enlightenment, the second appearance is a matter of course, but it hides a strange circle of technology that can never be broken out of.
According to normal thinking, the third time it appeared, he should still keep the plan secret. If it were him, he would not let himself guess the truth, but this terrible life once again exceeded his expectations, and he only had to directly Told him the truth.
At first, he didn't understand it, and it was difficult to explain it logically. But after the construction of the spaceship started, he immediately realized that there were deep-rooted traditionalists on and off the Rock Star. It was the Reflectionist faction that became more and more powerful before it came. Under its deliberate disturbance and disclosure, all parties were willing to go all out to build this spaceship for various reasons!
Traditionalists control the greatest resources on the planet. The Reflectionists had the best and most imaginative talents of the new generation, and they were all caught up in one fell swoop. They all tried their best to complete the ship as soon as possible.
As for the truth of more than a thousand years, not only does it not care, but it has become the latest "weapon" in its hands. To be used by it again, to squeeze out the last bit of value... Even I clearly knew its purpose, and I had to be willing to build the spaceship as soon as possible.
Is this the crushing of lower beings by higher beings? Can it be arranged calmly over a thousand years, understand all their weaknesses, from physiology to psychology, from individuals to social forms, and play with it at the palm of its hand?
Shang Yu began to think about this issue for the first time, looking at the brilliant starry sky above his head. He didn't know since when, he no longer worried at all about the sword of death that hung over the Yanxing people all the time - that sword. A huge armada.
He had a gut feeling. Once the Intuition Ship is built, that fleet will disappear.
There were a few times when he even had a terrible urge to abandon everything here and follow the spacecraft into the stars to see what kind of strange world was outside?
But every time, his reason firmly defeated his impulse. He couldn't leave, he had to stay in Rock Star.
Among the many heirs who are qualified to succeed the Uncrowned King, he is the only one who most firmly supports the ideas of Reflectionism. Once Chu Yunsheng leaves, if his intuition comes true, it will be an era of greatest change for Yanxing people, and it will also be the most beautiful era in his dreams. He couldn't abandon his lifelong beliefs and fall into the heat of the moment.
However, that kind of temptation gradually began to torture his heart like a devil.
As the construction of the spacecraft progresses faster and faster, and the time of departure gets closer, this torture becomes more and more intense and obvious. So much so that his still young face seemed to have aged a lot, and every night, he stood in front of the window and looked up at the stars more and more often. Sometimes, he didn't even know that he had watched it all night...
Time passed like water, Chu Yunsheng never showed up again, and the construction of the spacecraft was gradually coming to an end, and it might be completed tomorrow.
That night, he fell asleep and woke up, woke up and fell asleep again, and finally stood in front of the window again, looking at the dark but bright starry sky. He stood here for a long time.
I don't know when, a pair of soft hands hugged him gently from behind. He didn't look back, but he knew that it was his wife, who came from a traditional family, but was the person who supported him most firmly in the world.
He held his wife's hand and felt her cheek pressing against his back, her body trembling slightly: "Do you really want to leave?"
At that moment, his body suddenly stiffened. He did not expect that his thoughtful wife had already guessed his inner impulse. He didn't know how to answer, so he could only hold his wife's hands tightly.
That night, he thought a lot and became a lot older.
…
The day the spaceship set sail, the entire Rock Star was boiling!
Although it has been talked about building spaceships and spaceships above, no real spaceship has ever been built except for the unmanned experimental spacecraft that has been around for more than a hundred years.
When the huge spherical figure in the space port was broadcast to all directions on the rock star through the communication system, countless people were fascinated by it.
In their eyes, it is like their first child who is about to go into space. It is so beautiful and sci-fi, full of and carrying their countless wishes and pride.
It was also the same day when the haze above their heads was finally cleared away. The huge and invincible fleet turned around and left for unknown reasons. Although they didn't know whether it would come again in the future, they could finally stop spending the whole day. Terrified and on tenterhooks.
This is an exciting day, finally getting rid of the shadow of more than six hundred years, and being able to freely dream about the beautiful days in the future. Everyone is happy, at least for now, they will not think about the reasons before and after, because the first batch of them is about to The astronauts who left the rock star and followed the spacecraft into the starry sky will board the ship and set off today.
Although everyone knows that they may never be able to come back, and even if they come back, their old friends will be gone, but this is their first attempt to walk into the stars.
In the dark and boundless world, what is there among the billions of stars? It is enough to make people imagine and yearn for it.
The spaceport was full of people, all coming to see him off, including relatives of the astronauts and high-level dignitaries.
The sphere spaceship filled with various supplies is waiting for them to enter and then set sail.
The farewell process and ceremony lasted for a long time, and finally it was time to leave.
The astronauts rode the shuttle and flew into the spherical spacecraft one after another. From a distance, it looked like countless streams, converging towards one point from all directions.
Shang Yu's wife, wearing a thick space suit, floated among the crowd, looking deeply at one of the shuttles, gradually moving away with a sad expression.
…
The spacecraft took off coldly, slowly leaving the space port, orbiting the rock star, entering the gravitational orbit of the star, and finally escaped, completely flying into the vast universe.
At the spaceport, some people waved their arms vigorously, and some finally couldn't help but cry softly. After this farewell, we will never see each other again in this life.
Shang Yu's wife shed tears silently, watching the spaceship getting further and further away, turning into a point and gradually disappearing into the vast darkness.
People gradually left, and the grand celebration seemed to turn into a sad farewell in an instant, which was depressing.
It wasn't until that point was no longer visible that the remaining relatives turned around and left in reluctance and discomfort.
At this moment, a shuttle suddenly flew back from the darkness!
Everyone turned around. The surprise at that moment and the fierce excitement deep in their hearts could not be expressed in words.
The speed of the shuttle was very fast, and when people used the micro-propellers of their spacesuits to fly towards it, a figure also walked out of it.
Shang Yu's wife burst into tears and flew up.
That person was Shang Yu. The two met in mid-air. He hugged his wife tightly and kept crying: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
At the other end of the orbit, the spacecraft carrying the expectations of countless people finally entered deep space and flew towards the distant stars. (To be continued.)
