Technological supremacy starts with acquiring alien spaceships

"A big deal?"

Chen Yu frowned. Could it be the remnants of the old Americans from Earth?

"AI, what exactly is happening on Earth?"

[Captain, just now, at the Universal Colony on Earth, a former old American military base located on the southeastern Miami Peninsula was attacked by genetically modified humans. Satellites in space captured images of that giant submarine. According to analysis, they likely want something from that abandoned military base.]

"Oh! Lock onto that submarine and send a few attack ships to sink it for me!"

[Captain, the submarine's signal has disappeared. We cannot find them.]

"Damn it, is there any way to find that thing?"

[Based on the technology in your current authorization level, you can build underwater probes. Deploy a probe every few hundred kilometers of sea. As soon as they reappear, they will be locked on.]

"Okay, transmit the information back to the intelligent system in the Universal Science and Technology Park to build the probes you mentioned. I'm on a long voyage outside, so home must be safe!"

[Understood, Captain.]

After dealing with the Earth's affairs, Chen Yu continued his daily training and study plan.

Fortunately, he had Solara's company this time, making the long journey less boring.

After flying for less than half a year, Chen Yu was absorbing cosmic energy in the training room.

Suddenly, the endless starry sky outside the high-strength glass of the training pod changed.

From being as swift as a meteor streaking across the sky, it suddenly seemed to freeze.

At this moment, the AI's voice sounded in Chen Yu's mind.

[Captain, according to the orbital program settings, the Universal is shutting down its warp engine 10 million kilometers from the black hole and has now entered the regular flight phase.]

"Finally here? Let me see what a black hole actually looks like!"

[Understood, Captain.]

Chen Yu called Solara and Little Clamps to the Universal's command center.

Outside the huge space glass was a scene of utter silence.

A cursor lit up on the glass, indicating the location of the black hole to Chen Yu.

Chen Yu stared intently, but saw nothing.

Then, the glass displayed a spectral ray image.

Instantly, Chen Yu was startled.

In the dark and boundless deep space, a huge spherical vortex formed by rays suddenly appeared.

Those rays seemed to be circling around that black area.

That was because the black hole's gravity was so strong that those energy rays were affected by gravity and bent directly.

"Wow, this is a black hole? It's so spectacular! It gives people a feeling of being able to devour everything!"

Solara also opened her mouth wide, looking at this magical scene in disbelief.

Although her Mesoras Star already had the technology to explore the edge of black holes,

Solara was also seeing a real black hole for the first time.

"This is simply too, too, too incredible!" Solara exclaimed!

Chen Yu was also the first human on Earth to personally see a black hole!

[Captain, this is just a super-small black hole. We are currently only 10 million kilometers from the edge of the black hole. If we continue to approach, according to the law of gravitational time, which is your Earth's theory of relativity, we will have a time difference with the original universe. That is to say, one hour for us may be one month for Earth. If we continue to delve into the black hole's event horizon, this time difference may reach infinity. It could even be said that one minute inside is equivalent to thousands of years outside.]

Chen Yu remembered a movie on Earth called Interstellar.

In it, the male and female protagonists went to the edge of a black hole to perform a mission. When they returned, Old Black on the mothership was already several decades older.

The current situation was very similar to the plot of the movie.

Chen Yu marveled at the magic and greatness of nature, and the mystery and wonder of the universe.

Then, Chen Yu thought of a question and asked in his mind:

'AI, how are we going to collect that strange energy material at the edge of the black hole?'

[Of course, by sending robots. Currently, the bright energy radiation waves at the edge of the black hole are very strong. If you get closer than 5 million kilometers, with your current Interstellar Level 3 early-stage life form, you will not be able to resist such strong radiation. The main thing is that many rays, like neutrinos, can easily penetrate our spaceship's defenses.]

[Therefore, only by improving your own life level and making your body able to resist those strange bright energy rays can you explore deeper into the harsh depths of space.]

[For example, the most terrifying celestial body in the universe, the edge of a quasar formed by a super black hole, because it has devoured the energy of an entire galaxy, there are huge amounts of various strange energy substances around it, but there are also even more terrifying various strange rays. Even an Interstellar Level 6 life form cannot survive for long under such intensity of radiation.]

Chen Yu was shocked. What he had just thought of was that if he wanted to travel to the future, he could take a trip to the edge of a black hole.

'Do you mean that it is really possible to use a black hole to travel to the future?'

[Yes, Captain. Let me give you a simple explanation. Take this black hole as an example. According to my detection of this black hole's gravity, this black hole's mass is about 98 times that of the sun. Its event horizon is only about 300 kilometers. That is to say, as long as the spaceship's strength is great enough, and the life form's level is high enough, and the ability to withstand gravitational stretching is stronger, then driving the spaceship to rush towards the black hole, as long as it does not exceed approaching 300 kilometers from this black hole, it will not be swallowed by the black hole, but approaching the black hole's event horizon for 1 minute, the external universe will probably pass 10,000 years or even more, depending on the critical point of approaching the event horizon.]

[If the spaceship's strength can support it, and your body level is high enough, you can completely fly to the edge of the black hole and come out again, then countless years will have passed outside. This is equivalent to performing time travel, and you will only feel that you have flown to the black hole and then flew out again. In your time dimension, perhaps only a few hours or even days have passed.]

Chen Yu imagined those high-dimensional beings.

Even god-level civilizations of levels 8, 9, and 10, whether they used this method to perform time travel.

For example, they plant their descendants on a planet and let them evolve on their own, and then go around a nearby black hole.

After coming out, this planet has passed hundreds of millions of years, or even longer. Wouldn't they be able to immediately see the results of their planting?

Transforming a planet also requires hundreds of millions of years of evolution. In front of these high-dimensional beings, it may be completed in an instant.

Chen Yu and the AI had a brain-burning conversation about technology in their minds.

Finally, Chen Yu ordered the AI to send a robot fleet to approach the black hole to collect the strange energy material to repair the warp engine.

All the attack ships on Chen Yu's Universal home-class mothership were dispatched.

The AI designed the collection device when building these attack ships.

More than 300 attack ships were dispatched, heading towards the black hole...
