Earth Era

Shen Qingyuan stood in front of the huge porthole of the "Qin Shihuang" space carrier and did not move for a long time. Outside the window, there are countless stars gathered together, and the number is completely impossible to count. Those stars are connected together and are as bright as the ocean of light.

All the media reporters who had been following him had left, and now only some security personnel, secretaries, senior military and government officials were following him. Compared with just now in front of the camera, Shen Qingyuan at this moment is more calm, less domineering and full of energy, and has everything under control.

"Führer, all spaceships are ready and we can set off at any time."

A senior government official stepped forward and whispered to Shen Qingyuan. Shen Qingyuan seemed not to have heard anything and was still immersed in the spectacular scenery in front of him.

Shen Qingyuan knew that these scenes were not natural landscapes, but entirely man-made. It was precisely because of his order that these tens of millions of spacecraft gathered here. A spaceship with lights on is like a star, and thousands of spaceships with lights on are like millions of stars. At this moment, their light has completely suppressed the light of the stars that originally existed in the vast universe.

The space carrier Qin Shihuang sailed slowly, and the ocean of light in front of Shen Qingyuan slowly changed its appearance. But no matter which angle you look at it, it is always magnificent and brilliant, making people unable to help but hold their breath the moment they see it.

"Based on different types, we have planned the migration fleet into six major areas. The core area is large space bases, government agencies, important industrial spaceships and certain resource spacecrafts. The outside areas are general industrial areas, maintenance and support areas, resource areas, etc. . The outermost layer is completely occupied by the military. A total of 300,000 space battleships will patrol the outer layer of the fleet 24 hours a day to guard against threats that may come from any direction. Our fleet spans a distance of tens of millions of kilometers. The warning and exploration equipment can detect energy fluctuations several light years away..."

Everything is ready. Everything is ready. Now, as long as Shen Qingyuan gives an order, this huge fleet will launch an expedition.

The Qin Shihuang spacecraft was still moving forward slowly. As the angle changed, a bright and huge star appeared in people's field of vision. Although most of the light had been eliminated by the ship's portholes before entering, people still couldn't help but squint their eyes when facing this star.

This is the direction of Phoenix Star.

If the field of vision is good, people should be able to see the two giant gas planets orbiting the Phoenix star, and even the many satellites orbiting the two planets. But now, they are all submerged in the overwhelming light of Phoenix Star, completely unable to be seen.

Seemingly remembering something, Shen Qingyuan said with emotion: "We have lived in the Phoenix Galaxy for hundreds of years. During these hundreds of years, we have never stopped transforming the Phoenix Galaxy. And now, All this will be abandoned by us.”

The entourage looked at each other, but out of understanding of the head of state, no one spoke. Shen Qingyuan was still minding his own business and said: "I still remember the renovation project of Blue Star when I first arrived here. At that time, I was also an ordinary worker. We were in the blue star where the cold wind was howling and the mountains were towering. The city was explored, searched, and finally found a suitable place to build the capital, which took millions of workers decades to build."

Health Minister Wu Wei said respectfully: "Sir, it was during the construction project of the capital that your talents were revealed, and you gradually became the leader of our entire civilization."

A thin old man with an extremely cold expression said coldly: "If the self-sustainment system we left behind works normally, the capital city will continue to exist on Blue Star for at least thousands of years. During this time , all its buildings, factories, high-rises, and landscapes will remain the same as before. Maybe the rats and cockroaches living there will eventually evolve wisdom."

The old man's tone seemed a little sarcastic. Shen Qingyuan turned around with a smile and said: "Minister Han, your concerns are certainly reasonable, but I think that compared with the risk of an alien civilization acquiring our human technology through these ruins, it is better to keep it It’s more beneficial. This is not out of some personal feelings on my part, but out of practical considerations.”

Minister Han's expression was still stern, and he seemed not to have heard Shen Qingyuan's words. Shen Qingyuan just smiled and turned his head away without making any further distinction.

Han Luochang, Minister of Industry and Science, is a stubborn person who always adheres to his own ideas. When arguing with others, he never showed mercy to anyone, even with the Führer. However, this man is extremely talented, and Shen Qingyuan knows this very well, otherwise he would not tolerate him so much.

No matter what era or group, talented people will always receive some preferential treatment.

As if aware of the awkwardness in the atmosphere, Wu Wei immediately smiled and said: "Perhaps at some point in the future, these ruins in the Phoenix Galaxy will become tourist attractions for our human civilization. Future generations will understand this period through these ruins. These are life-or-death times for our civilization.”

Shen Qingyuan did not look back or pay attention to Wu Wei, but still said with some emotion: "When we were transforming Blue Star, I originally thought that we would never be able to return to the solar system. I didn't expect that now, we are actually We really have to set off on a long voyage, and I will give the order."

Wu Wei complimented: "No one can issue this order except you, the head of state."

Han Luochang glanced sideways at Wu Wei, his eyes full of disdain. Wu Wei seemed not to notice, still smiling.

Suddenly there was a slight vibration under the feet. Outside the porthole, a fleet composed of dozens of combat spacecraft was rapidly approaching the space carrier Qin Shihuang. A middle-aged man in military uniform whispered something to Shen Qingyuan. Shen Qingyuan nodded, turned and walked out: "Let's go and inspect the 73rd Mobile Squadron responsible for the defense of P9 area. Let's see. Let’s see if they are ready.”

At this moment, Wang Hao and his colleagues are still busy in the core area of ​​the migration fleet, Space Survival Base No. 7.

For now, the results of this trial are not good. In the seventy experimental spacecraft that penetrated into the area covered by the Bread Nebula, all the animals participating in the experiment had some problems. Some animals died, while others were listless and seemed to be suffering from some kind of illness. In contrast, the experimental spacecraft in the control group, that is, the experimental animals that did not enter the stardust-covered area, were still alive and well.

This obviously indicates a bad result, but people, including Wang Hao, still have some hope in their hearts: "Perhaps the conditions of these experimental animals are caused by other reasons? Without genetic testing and analysis, we can get concrete results." Before there is any evidence, who can really confirm that their current situation is due to the influence of stardust?"

But half a day later, when the precise spectral analysis results of mercury used in the experiment came out, most of people's hopes were shattered.

"Wang Hao, in all seventy mercury samples that went deep into the Bread Nebula, the spectra of trace gold elements were detected. The gold element content is directly proportional to the density of stardust."

Wang Hao's expression turned pale unconsciously. The results of this experiment seem to have made some of the worst conjectures come true. But after thinking for a moment, Wang Hao still maintained his composure and said: "Until the genetic monitoring and analysis results of experimental animals come out, everything cannot be determined. Even if the existence of the unknown radiation is really confirmed, we cannot be sure that the experimental animals The lesions on the body must be caused by them.”

The experimenter in front of him smiled miserably and said: "Wang Hao, up to now, do you really have any extravagant hopes for the results of the experiment? There is no use in deceiving yourself and others. Everything is already doomed, everything is already doomed."

Wang Hao whispered: "Don't be alarmist here, go and conduct genetic testing and analysis! Even if we really want to report to our superiors, we must wait until we get tangible evidence!"

The experimenter lowered his head and turned to leave, while Wang Hao slumped down on the chair again.

He put his hand on the communicator, and as long as he pressed it, the experimental results would be sent to Minister Wu Wei. But after hesitating for a moment, Wang Hao finally gave up this plan.

"It's useless. Minister Wu Wei is an extremely cautious person. He will not take action without concrete evidence... There are less than two days before the departure day. Two days are enough..."

Wang Hao didn't know how to describe his mood at the moment. Except for the small world of the biochemical laboratory, all the outside world is full of joy. Regardless of the real world or the virtual world on the Internet, everyone is immersed in the upcoming joyful atmosphere. Only these people in the biochemical laboratory know that all the joy and excitement are fake.

The fog that shrouded the cruel reality will soon fade away, and no one except Wang Hao or the staff here knows. This even gave Wang Hao a strange feeling, as if he did not belong to this world, and there was some kind of invisible and intangible barrier between himself and the world.

Nearly two days passed in anxiety. When all the media began to broadcast the ceremony attended by the head of state in person, Wang Hao also received the final experimental report from the front-line experimenters.

"Wang Hao, the miracle did not happen. The analysis results showed that hundreds of experimental animals in the seventy experimental spacecrafts all suffered from atypical genetic mutation syndrome."
