Chapter 443 Light of Hope
When the technological level and speed are similar, it is difficult for a fleet to discover another fleet in a state of superluminal navigation.
Unless the technological level is crushed, such as a level 5 civilization against a level 4 civilization, it can effectively warn the fleet in advance and intervene in the superluminal navigation.
At this moment, this fleet can avoid the warning network arranged by human civilization in the surrounding galaxies and appear at the edge of the galaxy's gravitational field in a sudden manner. This is enough to prove that the technological strength of this fleet is at least equivalent to human civilization or only slightly worse. If it is higher, it is hard to say whether it is a level 5 civilization or a level 6 civilization.
And that galaxy is only 15 light years away from the current anchorage of the human main fleet.
Even for a level 5 civilization, this can be regarded as an extremely close distance.
The moment the unknown fleet was detected, the alarm bells in the military department of the human fleet rang sharply. Soldiers and staff officers put down their work and rushed to the front line of intelligence to investigate. Countless personnel and materials began to be mobilized.
All the senior officials in the civilization, whether they were visiting, taking a break, or holding other important meetings, stopped their work at this moment and rushed to the nearest confidential meeting room as quickly as possible.
In just half an hour, all the senior officials of the civilization, including Liu Yuan, gathered in the virtual meeting room.
Han Yang had to participate in such an emergency. Even if he did not express his opinion, he had to be on the scene.
"Preliminary information shows that this fleet is suspected to be a fleet of level 5 civilization, and its identity is unknown."
"Through space curvature detection and dark force detection, it is confirmed that the fleet uses quark fusion as the main source of energy."
"The other party has not yet taken the initiative to contact us."
...
The atmosphere in the meeting room was extremely solemn.
At this moment, all the committee members realized one thing.
It was originally thought that the whereabouts of the human main fleet were extremely confidential, but from this moment on, the facts seemed to be otherwise. Otherwise, how could such a large fleet suddenly descend into a galaxy so close?
Say it's a coincidence? No one would believe it.
At present, we just don't know whether the other party tracked us by chance, that is, they don't know our true identity, but just met by chance and tracked us all the way here, or whether they have been tracking us since the beginning when human civilization left the solar system?
If the traces of the human main fleet have been tracked and exposed... then many of our subsequent strategic arrangements need to be adjusted significantly. Moreover, our situation does not seem to be as safe as expected before.
There are many things behind this that can even change fate.
"According to the plan, our main fleet should immediately enter the superluminal navigation state and evacuate the main fleet first. The remaining personnel, materials, facilities, etc. will be gradually evacuated under the protection of the battleship fleet."
The committee members looked at Liu Yuan. Liu Yuan looked calm and did not speak, so the committee members looked at Lu Xinghe.
Lu Xinghe was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "There is no doubt that our whereabouts have been known by this unknown fleet. But... they did not directly land in the galaxy where we are stationed, but stationed 15 light years away.
I think that at this moment, all personnel, important equipment and materials should be withdrawn to the main fleet immediately. All the ships of the main fleet are ready to set sail, and the battleship fleet is ready for battle, but there is no need to enter the superluminal navigation state for the time being."
Liu Yuan still looked calm and silent.
So, an order was issued from the ruling committee and was immediately executed. In the entire galaxy, tens of billions of people who left their living spaceships and headed for the galaxy immediately evacuated to the living spaceships in an orderly and extremely fast manner.
At the same time, the vigilance forces in that galaxy were immediately mobilized and directly under the command of the ruling committee, and they launched detections against this unknown fleet in various ways.
Under the watchful eyes of humans, the huge unknown fleet made some adjustments and made some peripheral vigilance work.
They also worked quickly and efficiently. After the initial completion, a piece of information was finally sent to the nearest human detector in the form of electromagnetic waves.
Because the two sides have not yet established a long-distance connection, they cannot directly communicate over long distances.
This piece of information was immediately transmitted back through the long-distance communication network of human civilization, and then after being deciphered, it was presented to the ruling committee members.
"Dear human civilization, hello. We are the Greenoka civilization. The head of our civilization hopes to have a meeting with the head of your civilization to exchange some things about the future destiny of our civilizations. I hope your civilization can agree."
At this moment, the committee members were shocked again.
This shock came from the fact that the other fleet called us "human civilization" without any ambiguity.
The other side knows our identity! On the surface, our human civilization has long been extinct. Even the capital galaxy has been invaded by the Blue Mountain civilization, and the capital planet has been washed by the Blue Mountain civilization with quark fusion bombs!
And, Greenoka...
This slightly unfamiliar name instantly evoked some memories of the committee members.
In the propaganda of the Silver Alliance, it commits all kinds of evil, and takes pleasure in annihilating, massacring, and torturing low-level civilizations, and destroying key projects in the galaxy. It claims that more than 500 low-level civilizations have been destroyed by it. It ranks first on the list of malicious civilizations of the Silver Alliance. A civilization that broke away from the Silver Alliance millions of years ago at the cost of almost annihilating its civilization, and then evaded pursuit by the Silver Alliance in the galaxy for almost a million years...
In the Silver Alliance, the reward for annihilating the Greenoka civilization was as high as one trillion silver coins. But all mid-to-high-level civilizations know that the true value of the Greenoka civilization far exceeds this number.
The Luotu civilization once took over the task of annihilating the Greenoka civilization, but later gave up due to some reasons.
Unexpectedly, the famous Greenoka civilization would appear on the edge of our own fleet at this moment. Not only that, they also know our identity, and further infer that they must know that the so-called extinction of our civilization in the Silver Alliance was just a scam.
There are so many things hidden behind this, and it really makes people think more about it, and then it becomes scary to think about it carefully.
After sending this message, Greenoka Civilization did not send any more messages and seemed to be waiting for its own reply.
Reluctantly suppressing the fear and shock in his heart, Lu Xinghe said in a deep voice: "First, the Greenoka civilization is undoubtedly the enemy of the Silver Alliance. They must also know that we are also the enemy of the Silver Alliance.
From a standpoint, both parties have the same interests and are naturally qualified for cooperation, so they should not be hostile.
Second, they are stationed in nearby galaxies instead of coming directly to our surroundings, leaving a safe distance for both sides. This move also releases some goodwill.
Based on this, I think we should have some communication with them. At least we need to figure out how they know our identity and our whereabouts!
Third, once again speed up the collection of materials, personnel, and equipment. Among them, personnel evacuation is the first priority. Once the personnel evacuation is completed, no matter how much supplies and equipment are left, the main fleet must immediately enter the super-light speed navigation state and leave here first. "
Even if the other party does not appear to have any malicious intentions, the main body of our own fleet must evacuate first to ensure that there is no threat.
Lu Xinghe did not suspect that the other party was pretending to be the Greenoka civilization. Because it is easy to find out in subsequent exchanges and basically cannot be concealed.
Liu Yuan nodded slowly: "Okay. I'll go talk to them."
A message was sent to the huge fleet through the relay, and some parameters of the long-distance communication network were attached.
In the corresponding parameter network, human civilization has established a virtual conference room. As long as the Greenoka civilization is connected, information can be transferred through this conference room.
All human ruling committee members have appeared in the virtual conference room. After a while, a huge dark-toned palace appeared in front of the committee members. There was also a conference table-like table in it. Behind it, there were about twenty people who were extremely stout, extremely muscular, and almost three meters tall. , a blue-skinned giant.
This is roughly consistent with the appearance of the intelligent life of Greenoka civilization recorded in some secret data.
"I am the head of human civilization, Liu Yuan."
Liu Yuan stood up and paid his respects.
In the picture, a blue giant in the center stood up, put his hands on his chest, and bowed his head slightly to Liu Yuan. The voice translated into human language came out: "I am the head of the Greenoka civilization, Green. Lieer. You can call me Lieer. Hello, Your Majesty the Head of Human Civilization.”
"Hello, Lord Lieer. You told me before that you wanted to communicate with me something about the future destiny of your civilization. I am very interested in this.
But before sharing these things, I hope you can answer me a question.
How does your civilization know our identity and whereabouts? "
The long-term experience of dealing with different civilizations has taught Han Yang that it is best to get straight to the point when communicating between unfamiliar civilizations, without the need for things such as foreshadowing, code words, and testing. That is something that needs to be done after both civilizations have a certain degree of familiarity.
After all, civilizations have different cultural backgrounds and different ways of thinking. If you go around in circles, it is very likely to cause the other party to misunderstand.
Greenlear's attitude is also very direct: "This is originally part of the cooperation. I can explain it to you in detail.
We were able to find your fleet with a lot of luck and chance. In fact, at the beginning, we did not have high hopes. The search operation turned out to be fruitful, and we actually found your fleet, and we are extremely excited about this.
The reason why we spent so long time and paid such a huge price to search for your fleet is based entirely on a very simple conjecture.
This speculation is... If the demise of human civilization is just a scam, and human civilization does not actually perish because of this, but takes this opportunity to fake death and escape, then what is the purpose of human civilization? What is human civilization planning to do? "
Liu Yuan interrupted him: "Why do you think the demise of human civilization is a hoax? What signs or evidence make you have this suspicion?"
Greenlear said calmly: "We have not noticed any signs that human civilization is pretending to be dead to escape, and there is no evidence. Our judgment is only based on a conjecture: human civilization is the last remnant of the original Pangu civilization. Bloodline.
Moreover, various signs indicate that human civilization has huge development potential. This development potential has even allowed human civilization to defeat powerful enemies in a short period of time and achieve a jump in civilization level.
Such an extraordinary civilization may not be extinct just like this.
From this, through reverse thinking, we first assume that your civilization is pretending to be dead to escape, and then speculate on what your purpose and plan are. "
Greenlear's expression remained calm: "This is very simple, isn't it?
Once you leave the Silver Alliance, promotion to the fifth level civilization will definitely not be an obstacle for your civilization. The only obstacle must be to advance to the sixth level civilization.
We have reason to suspect that becoming a level six civilization is your real goal.
Since you want to advance to the sixth level of civilization, you will definitely not be able to do it within the Milky Way, and you must go to other river systems. However, the Canis Major dwarf galaxy, which is the closest and most promising to reach, will definitely become your target.
Although generally speaking, it is still not feasible to reach the Canis Major dwarf galaxy, there is still a theoretical possibility: replacing intelligent life with artificial intelligence, and there is some hope that this long journey can be completed.
However, your human civilization has incredible potential for development, and it is even very likely that you will have a legacy from the Pangu civilization.
Combining this, we come to the conclusion: if human civilization is escaping in suspended animation, then the final destination is most likely the Canis Major dwarf galaxy.
If you want to go to the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy, you obviously must first reach the edge of the Milky Way closest to the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy.
As a result, our civilization spent thousands of years to first reach this star field, and then set up hidden detectors in advance among the billions of star systems that your human civilization may pass by to monitor whether there are any A fleet suspected of being a human civilization passed by.
Facts have proved that the god of destiny is favoring us. Based on the initial slightly ridiculous speculation, we actually found you. "
Liu Yuan was silent. Lu Xinghe said in disbelief: "Without any evidence, without any empirical evidence, just for such a crude and simple speculation, your civilization has been searching for thousands of years?"
Greenlear looked at Lu Xinghe, with an expression on his lips that looked like a smile to Lu Xinghe: "This is ridiculous and incomprehensible, isn't it?"
"yes."
Lu Xinghe did not hide his suspicion at all.
Greenlear's mood did not fluctuate at all: "Of course, this is absurd and incomprehensible to your human civilization. But... to us, it is very reasonable.
Because we have spent nearly a million years hiding under the pursuit of the Silver Alliance, living in precarious situations.
Nearly a million years of darkness and hopelessness are enough for us to put in all our efforts for even the smallest ray of hope. "(End of chapter)
