Earth Era

Gliese 715 galaxy.

The main star of this star system is a red dwarf star. Its mass is only one-quarter of the sun, and its luminosity is much smaller than that of the sun. But this is also a magnificent and huge star system, with two rocky planets and a huge gas planet orbiting it. In addition to these large planets, there are countless asteroids, dwarf planets, and comets. Wait for celestial bodies.

It is a full thirty-seven light-years away from the solar system. Judging from the current interstellar voyage capabilities of human civilization, it is undoubtedly at the boundary of human civilization's territory, but this star system is famous for its beautiful and magnificent scenery. It is famous that the planet closest to the main star has finally become the most famous tourist attraction among human civilization through its own foundation and careful transformation by the scientific and technological power of human civilization. Although this place is far away, and although it takes decades to get here, people still pursue a trip here.

But... with the advent of the robot crisis, the Gliese 715 galaxy has been abandoned for a long time. Since nearly a hundred years ago, the number of tourists coming here has been declining, and even disappeared completely a few decades ago. Recently, even the staff who stayed here have almost withdrawn.

This place has been completely deserted.

A huge passenger spacecraft is orbiting above the only living planet in this star system. Several smaller dual-purpose spacecraft left the port, entered the planet's atmosphere, and then landed in front of a huge building.

This building is located in the mountains and surrounded by vegetation of various colors. This makes the building always shrouded in the sweet scent of a plant. Against the background of the chirping of birds and beasts from time to time in the mountain forest and the light red sun shining in the sky, the building looks like It is like the residence of gods, full of solemn and majestic atmosphere.

Several personnel in military uniforms stepped off the dual-purpose spacecraft, entered the building, and then came to an office. After knocking a few times, the door opened, and an old man sitting behind the desk raised his head at this time and stared at the soldiers quietly.

"Mr. Levi, are you ready? The last retreat spacecraft is about to leave for the solar system. If you are ready, please come with us to the spacecraft." A soldier said.

The old man stood up with a sigh, walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window, and stared at the scenery outside the window, leaving only his back to these soldiers.

"Mr. Levi..." The soldier called softly.

The old man named Levi finally said: "How many people are left on this planet?"

"We are the only ones left," the soldier said. "Except for us, all the staff and vacationers on this planet have already embarked on their journey back to the solar system in batches. The "Shengjing" passenger spacecraft is The last retreating spacecraft, after this spacecraft, no more manned spacecraft will come here."

Levi continued to look at the scenery outside the window in trance. During this long gaze, Levi seemed to see the scenes that had appeared here before: countless aircraft flying in the sky, countless laughing tourists gathering here, beautiful scenery, delicious food, cute animals... …

Now, except for the still existing mountains and forests and the animals living in the mountains and forests, there is nothing else.

"After we retreat, what will your military do with this planet?" Levi asked, with a tremor in his voice.

The soldier was silent for a while, then sighed and said: "Mr. Levi, you know, in order to ensure that the technological creations of our human civilization are not leaked, we need to completely clean up this planet. We need to destroy everything that exists on this planet." The complete and complete destruction of man-made objects on the planet.”

"But all of this was designed by me." Levi said a little feebly, "I have been working on this planet since I was a young man. At that time, this planet was still desolate, what? None. I have led my team to work here for more than three hundred years to transform it into what it is today. All my life's hard work has been spread to this planet, and now, you want to destroy it..."

"Every plant and tree here, every landscape, every building, every animal group, every river, every lake, every ocean... Everything here is from my design, my life, my My hard work, my wisdom, and my life have all been left here...and now, you want to destroy it..."

The old man became more and more excited, and his tone became more tragic. Muddy tears poured out of the old man's eyes, and fell to the ground across the old man's wrinkled face.

"Mr. Levi, I'm sorry, but as you know, we have no choice, we have to do this." The soldier's mood also became low, and his voice was a little low, "We once conveyed your appeal to the head of state. , the head of state said, he can promise you that after the war is over, the government will provide you with sufficient support to rebuild the ecology and environment of this planet."

"It's useless, it's useless." The old man cried bitterly, "I have reached my twilight years and don't have much time to live! It will take at least hundreds of years to rebuild the ecology and environment of a planet. I don't have Enough time!"

Faced with the old man's rebuttal, the soldier chose to remain silent.

The red planet has fallen to the edge of the mountain and will fall soon. Under the afterglow of twilight, everything here looks more and more magnificent. However, perhaps because of their different moods, everything about this magnificence is always covered with a layer of sadness in the eyes of these people.

After a long silence, the old man finally regained some composure: "You can go, can you let me stay here by myself?"

The soldier whispered: "No. We must destroy everything here."

There was already a little pleading in the old man's tone: "You can destroy everything here. After destroying this place, leave me the simplest set of life-support devices and a little food and water. Can you?" "

The soldier continued to whisper: "No. First, you must leave with us. You are an outstanding planet environment modification expert, and you cannot just waste your life like this. Second... we leave for you. The life-support device below could still leak our technology."

The old man smiled miserably and said: "After you destroyed this place, my life has lost its meaning. How can we talk about waste? As for the leakage of our technology that you are worried about... you can leave me a set The most primitive and simple life-support equipment, as long as it can keep me alive, then you won't worry about technology leaks, right?"

"This is beyond our authority." The soldier said, "Please wait a moment, I need to report this matter to our fleet commander."

The soldier took out the communication equipment and reported the situation here to the Shengjing spacecraft. While waiting for the reply, the soldier said to the old man: "Mr. Levi, can I ask you a question?"

"Say." The old man said in a low voice.

"You are so stubborn in wanting to stay here...what's the point?"

"Meaning?" The old man said with a sad smile: "This planet is the meaning of my life. I created it with my own hands, and it is like my child. But now... I can no longer protect my child, my life It makes no sense, so let me stay here with my child, and let me spend the rest of my life accompanying it."

The soldier was silent for a long time, and then sighed: "Mr. Levi, I'm sorry, we don't want to do this, but we have to do it."

After a while, the reply from the Shengjing spacecraft was sent to the soldiers. The soldier glanced at it and then said: "Mr. Levi, the commander has agreed to your request. Now, please return to the spacecraft with us. The fleet will then launch a devastating attack on the planet. After the attack , we will prepare a simple life support system for you to live on this planet."

The old man nodded tremblingly and followed the soldiers out of the office. Before leaving the office, the old man took one last deep look at the office he had spent hundreds of years in, and then closed the door heavily.

After walking out of this magnificent and solemn building, the old man stopped in front of the aerospace spacecraft, raised his head again, and cast his sights on the undulating mountains in the distance.

Birds chirped and beasts roared. The water flows and the flowers bloom.

The old man looked at it hard, as if he wanted to engrave all this scenery into his mind.

The soldier called: "Mr. Levi, let's go, let's go."

The old man turned his head hard, wiped away a handful of tears, and entered the dual-purpose spacecraft without looking back. The spaceship immediately took off, causing a roar and disappearing into the depths of the sky, leaving only some unintelligent creatures in the forest looking at the sky curiously, as if thinking about what those things were.

"I order the cleanup operation to begin. Intensity: thorough cleanup. Time: three days."

As the order was issued, countless cannonballs were poured from space onto the earth like meteors, and the entire planet was immediately covered in thick clouds and fire. Everything will be destroyed, and hundreds of years of hard work and effort will be wiped out with the arrival of the blow.

The old man collapsed in the corner, crying like a child at the moment the blow came. (To be continued ~^~)
