Empty, lonely, pitch black, cold...... These words couldn't be more appropriate to describe space.

The "Ti Xue 1" space probe is like a lonely boat in the cosmic ocean, sailing alone.

It has traveled many, many light years.

And if you look at the technology in reality, this distance is unimaginable for human beings at this stage!

It's too far away......

Far away,

Just imagining in my head,

You can feel a deep loneliness!

............

............

I already feel it, tsk, unconsciously, I have flown more than a thousand light years, how far away is this......

Yes, think about it, a person, in the empty universe, observing and recording one planet after another, that feeling, is too lonely......

Judging from the plot, it seems that the top management of the Foundation does not want to see the existence of aliens, as it seems to be a potential threat to the Blue Star......

That's right, but Dr. Talein's mentality is different, she desperately wants to find something, but every time she hopes for it, all she gets in the end is a deep disappointment......

Didn't you notice? Dr. Taryn's mood was starting to go wrong, she wanted to find something out now, but she was always disappointed!

This is the loneliness of this work!

Dr. Tarlene is now just a string of electronic data consciousness, but even so, she can feel the feeling of exhaustion, which shows how bad her state is......

Not to mention anything else, the space pictures in this work are really real! Those planets are also very imaginative, and I really admire the author's imagination!

......

............

............

[The plot of "Cowardly Xue No. 1"]

After leaving the range of the Kepler 442b planet, the "Tixue 1" space probe began to move rapidly towards the next target.

And the electronic face of Dr. Talene "680" in the probe showed deep exhaustion!

"It's been more than a thousand light years......"

"Where the hell is extraterrestrial life?"

Although Dr. Taryn is an electronic consciousness body, she still feels a strong sense of loneliness and exhaustion!

She knows,

The Foundation's high-level command doesn't want this exploration mission to be fruitful.

But for her, she was very, very eager to detect the existence of some extraterrestrial civilization.

Even if it's just a few traces.

And this emotion of hers,

Over time,

It's also getting richer.

Because

As the distance gets farther and farther away......

As the number of planets explored increases, one after another.

The loneliness in Dr. Taryn's heart,

It's getting richer......

............

Time passes......

It didn't take long for

"Tixue 1" space probe,

It's within the confines of a planet again.

The planet is even a gaseous planet......

Seeing this, Dr. Taryn was almost sure of the answer.

But she still let out a breath that didn't exist.

After that, she began to keep track of her observations again......

[Observation Note: I will never wake up again, nor will I fall asleep.

] I don't have any more calculations about the time, and it's only been a few years since Command.

It feels like centuries have passed, occasionally punctuated by lifeless stones.

No one thought it would be this one, and there wasn't even a habitable area on the gas ball, but I still had dreams.

Magical creatures may be able to adapt to extreme environments, and some transparent creatures may be sustained by forces we didn't expect.

Wouldn't they all need to communicate? I've wondered for decades what they're going to be.

But there is nothing here.

I heard voices again.

] Absurd.

You've seen starlight older than God, and you still think there's something here that threatens you? I can't laugh out loud, or I will.

I was afraid that my body would become a prison.

After our deliberations, you are anxious to show me the way forward.

You still have it, my body.

I hope you burned it.

Know that its existence is a torture that you cannot comprehend.

[Observation Note: In less than a few thousand years, you will be able to see a supernova.] Finally this is where it used to be, is it interesting? I hear the voice. I know it can't be because there's nothing here. This is a blemish in my panel. That's really all I need. (Researcher Note: This was the last communication from the Xer-1 mission, after which the probe went offline.) )】

............

............

What does this mean in the end? The probe is offline??? Dr. Talyn did it?

Dr. Tarin was mad by the endless space voyage! She was desperate to find an alien civilization, but she couldn't find it, and this result made her very desperate! So she finally chose to go offline, she is an electronic consciousness, and she should be able to take the probe offline......

Obediently, I can already experience that almost eternal loneliness!

No wonder Dr. Talene has become like this, this kind of torture can't be endured by anyone!

More than 3,000 light years! It's a light year! It's a distance of more than 3,000 years!

I feel that Dr. Taryn is right, the universe is so big, the Foundation is still worried that an alien civilization will invade Blue Star...... Ay......

That's really a distance that can't be crossed in a lifetime, no, it's not a lifetime, it's a distance that can't be crossed in a few lifetimes of riding a horse!

Why do I feel a sense of despair?

Don't you all feel that the Foundation is in a way ruthless!

......

............

The discussion of the audience in the live broadcast room was very intensive.

Almost everyone felt that way for Dr. Talene.

And in fact,

This is also quite normal.

Because

From departure, to official acceleration, to rushing into the depths of the cosmic starry sky, and finally the probe offline.

Most of the scenes in the entire video version of the work are mostly dark and cold space scenes.

From time to time,

"Cowardice 1" will come to the confines of a planet and observe and record that planet.

Although those planets are different. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

It brought the audience a very novel experience of traveling in the starry sky of the universe.

But

Over time.

The audience also experienced a certain boredom, a certain loneliness, a certain loneliness.

That's it, it's because the video version of the plot keeps appearing with explanatory subtitles, and it keeps actively accelerating. []

And this time in the real world makes the audience experience loneliness.

so

What if everything was true?

What if the audience could truly experience the kind of space voyage that sails thousands of light-years and seems to be endless?

That loneliness, that torment, that disappointment over and over again......

How strong should it be?

And understanding this is realized,

The audience will know,

why

Dr. Tarlene in the work,

will choose to take the detector offline......

............

............

[The plot of "Cowardly Xue No. 1"]

Dr. Tarlene chose to take the probe offline.

And her approach also surprised everyone in the Foundation of the "Timid Xue 1" command center located in the blue star of the solar system!

Under the display of the camera screen,

The audience could see the surprised expressions of the people in the command center.

The Foundation is clearly not going to panic because of such an unexpected circumstance.

Instead, a quick reconnection attempt was made......

And after you start trying,

The footage goes dark, and several captions appear:

[After transferring data from PSRB1620-26b, Tixue 1 went offline and did not respond for 21 days and 3 hours. D-43852 is believed to be KIA 1 and is considered a lost asset. 】

[In the event of data deletion, Mission Control re-established contact with Tixue 1.] The data confirms that the probe has changed its path and is returning to the blue star in a straight line. Due to the potentially devastating consequences of a probe's impact on the Blue Star at relativistic speeds, the mission of the Tim Xue 1 command center is to prevent its return to the Blue Star at all costs. 】

[Additionally, D-43852 appears to have effectively seized command of the probe after re-establishing the connection.] Attempts to access the software system to overload that control failed. In the event of data expunged, attempts to upload additional consciousness subjects are approved to interfere with the control of "Cowardly 1", or to reconstruct a control system that responds to Foundation Command. 】

[The initial recruitment process for D-43852 was voluntary in nature and relied on substantial compensation to the personnel and agencies designated by D-43852, and was therefore considered too slow to acquire subjects.]

Based on parameters previously considered necessary for integration into the command system of "Timid 1", Dr. Westley was chosen as the ideal target for Data Erasure, based on his qualifications, age, and past support for so-called "superhuman" technology.......... It should be noted that Dr. Westley's expertise in orbital mechanics is believed to allow him to control Thorn 1 more effectively than D-43852, who specializes in extraterrestrial biology. 】

............

............

Well??? that's a lot of information! Is this the Foundation going to use another doctor to interfere with Dr. Taryn's control of "Cowardice 1"?

It seems that yes, after "Cowardly Xue No. 1" went offline, the Foundation was in a hurry, and there was no good way to seize control, so it could only let other consciousness bodies pass over and try to seize control.

Oh, don't you see a point, Dr. Tarin is a D-class here!

But aren't D-class beings guinea pigs or anything like that in the Foundation?

Well, can I understand that because Dr. Talene took the probe offline, the Foundation considered this a betrayal and classified Dr. Talene as a D-class?

Wow, that's so cold! Turn the Doctor into a D-Class?

It turns out that Dr. Taryn is good at extraterrestrial biology, so the Foundation sent a doctor who is good at orbital mechanics to take control......

The probe flew back to the Blue Star, and I could feel how much Dr. Tarlene wanted to go home......

Yes, that kind of loneliness of thousands of light years is unimaginable if you don't experience it yourself.

Curious to see what happens next......

......

............

............

[The plot of "Cowardly Xue No. 1"]

After a few explanatory subtitles,

The camera scene turned back to the interior of "Cowardly Xue No. 1",

With Dr. Westley being uploaded,

On the display,

His electronic face appeared.

"Control the Xue 1 probe...... Change the path and target the center of the NGC1560 galaxy 112 million light-years away......"

Dr. Westley remembers his mission.

In a very short time

He took control of the probe.

Then

He modified the path to send the probe farther into the cosmic depths......

............

But soon.

Dr. Tarlene, who is located in the "Tishel 1" system, discovered the existence of Dr. Westerly!

The conversation between the two began!

And because there are captions,

So the audience can also clearly understand the conversation that took place between the two electronic consciousnesses......

Dr. Taryn: "My God, are you another man?"

Dr. Westley: "Yes. Or at least I used to be. "

Dr. Tarlene: "I can't get started. I've been here for almost an eternity. There is no beginning and no end. There has been no one else here. "

Dr. Westerly: "They said you volunteered. "

Dr. Taryn: "They took me back from the Grim Reaper. And his brother is far more terrifying. But they won't say that to you. They put the same conditions on your terms?"

Dr. Westley: "Given." I refused. So it's not much of a deal or a condition. "

Dr. Taryn: "Poor fool. "

Dr. Westley: "What are you planning here?" Researcher 3.0 says you're not talking to them anymore. "

Dr. Taryn: "I'm going home. Back in my body. Don't tell anyone. "

Dr. Westley: "Isn't this going to kill you?"

Dr. Taryn: "Maybe. "

............

This concludes the first conversation.

Then

The caption appeared at the right time, reminding the audience that some time had passed......

And after the captions,

A new conversation has reappeared......

............

Dr. Westley: "Looking at the controls here, I understand better. I hate what they do to me, but I can understand that. And what you're doing, I don't think you've thought about it properly. Do you really want to ruin everything?"

Dr. Taryn: "I just want to get back into my body. I know they still have it. That's what they have to do to get the job done. For you, it may be the same. "

Dr. Westley: "They...... Well. See, I'm compassionate. But I can't do that. I can't give you access to the console. This thing is a monster and shouldn't be near anyone. "

Dr. Talene: "The square of a planet's orbital period is proportional to the cube of the major semi-axis of its orbit. "

Dr. Westley: "...... What?"

Dr. Talene: "Kepler's third law of planetary motion, right?"

Dr. Westley: "Well, yes, but I don't see that. "

Dr. Tarlene: "You see, Westerly. It's something you remember at the beginning of college, these laws. small hole in the ceiling in the library. Then you think of the planets, look up, and recite these laws over and over again, searing them into your memory. When you think about them, you still see those little holes. "

Dr. Westley: "...... Stop it. Don't do it. "

Dr. Taryn: "You've got to help me, Westley. No matter what they threatened, they couldn't compare to what they did to me. You have to help me, or you will have your will dismembered. "。
