Universe dominance

In the Hanyuan River System of Nanyun Prefecture in the Chinese Star Boundary, in a void at the edge of the Hanyuan River System, a fleet of only a dozen spaceships arrived at this dark and dim place accompanied by ripples of space. of void.

The original name of the Chinese Star Realm was the Kalawi Realm. According to the past traditions of the empire, changing the name was a must. The name Kalawi Realm was not pleasant to the ears. The Empire was now the master of the entire Star Realm, so it was natural to choose a name that was consistent with the Empire. With the name, the Chinese Star Realm naturally replaced the Karawi Realm.

The empire divided the entire vast Chinese star realm into ten prefectures, namely Central Prefecture, Beihe Prefecture, Xiyu Prefecture, Nanyun Prefecture, Donghua Prefecture, Jinsha Prefecture, Linmu Prefecture, Sishui Prefecture, and Tuqiu Prefecture. There are ten prefectures, and each prefecture has jurisdiction over an area of ​​more than 8,000 river systems.

Each prefecture is an administrative region. The imperial government establishes an administrative structure at the prefecture level, which is directly under the jurisdiction of the central government of the empire. Below the prefecture are the governors of river systems. Below the river system general headquarters, relevant departments are established according to the conditions of each river system. administrative level.

The three levels of the empire's central government, general office, and governor are the latest administrative levels of the empire. Down below, the mayor of a planet or a city is the lowest level. The imperial government has always been streamlined and streamlined, and has established government agencies. At the same time, we should try to streamline and clarify responsibilities as much as possible to avoid the situation of having only one person to eat, redundant officials, and nine shepherds among ten sheep.

The Imperial Galaxy, the Sculptor Galaxy and other places where the empire originated are the Central Palace, which is regarded as the core place of the empire. The other nine palaces are divided according to the specific conditions of the Chinese star realm.

Nanyun Mansion is a mansion on the southernmost edge of the Chinese Star Boundary. As for how to distinguish the southeast from the northwest, this is more complicated, because there is no distinction between southeast, northwest, up, down, left, and right in the void universe. To distinguish the direction, you need a reference object. .

The Hanyuan River System is a river system at the edge of Nanyun Prefecture. Flying in the south direction, it is a dark world. This is really a dark world. Compared with the dark abyss between river systems, The dark abyss here is even darker, colder, and quieter. There is no light except the light coming from the direction of the own river system. Everything is very dark.

Compared with this dark world, the Hanyuan River System seems like an island of light in the darkness, with bright stars and dazzling stars. However, in fact, the Hanyuan River System is a barren river system, even up to now. No people from the empire have immigrated here. Although Nanyun Mansion has issued many policies to encourage immigration, there is still no one here.

Each of the dozen or so spaceships were brightly lit, temporarily dispersing the darkness in a small area around them. The spaceships were branded with the logo of the Imperial Institute of Astronomical Sciences, and various scientific detection instruments were already in operation.

Spectrometers, gravitational wave meters, space technology detectors... Various advanced instruments are aimed at the dark world, trying to find information invisible to the naked eye.

"It's really dark, I can't see my fingers!"

Tang Boyuan looked at the dark world outside, like a pitch-black night where he couldn't see his fingers. Such areas are rarely seen in the universe. You must know that in the universe, there are usually bright stars, even river systems and rivers. A lot of starlight can be seen in the dark abyss between systems, but not here at all.

"Of course it is pitch black. The outside is outside our Chinese star realm. The light from the void hundreds of millions of light years away has long been dimmed."

Dong Zhifei was staring at the computer monitor. The spectrum analyzer was collecting starlight for analysis.

The dark world does not mean that there is really nothing. In fact, there is still light, but the light is very, very weak and cannot be distinguished with the naked eye. However, it can be distinguished with advanced spectrometers, which are on the spacecraft. They carry the most advanced spectrometers in the empire, which are enough to capture the faintest light. Then, by analyzing the red-shifted spectral lines of these lights, the source and distance of the light can be inferred.

Generally speaking, there are many methods for measuring long distances in the universe. Astronomers generally use the trigonometric parallax method, the spectroscopic parallax method and the Cepheid variable star-period light relationship method to measure distances. There are also Type I methods. Supernova parallax ranging, spectral redshift ranging, gravitational telescope and other methods, space scientists can also use the space wave method to measure distance and precise positioning.

The use of parallax for distance measurement is generally more suitable for targets that are relatively close. There is no problem in measuring targets that are thousands or tens of thousands of light years away. However, if you want to measure such targets that are often hundreds of millions of light years away, the parallax The accuracy will be greatly reduced.

Generally, at this time, a combination of Cepheid variable star periphotometry, spectral redshift ranging, gravitational lens penetration, space fluctuations and other methods are used to measure distance and position.

"Haha, it seems we are lucky. We finally made a new discovery here in Nanyun Mansion. Judging from this spectral analysis, this light comes from the void 150 million light-years away. It is the closest we have found. ”

Dong Zhifei looked at the computer monitor. Many of the research tasks of the Empire's scientists could already be automated. They received the spectrum and automatically analyzed it to calculate the distance and location of the light source. This could greatly save the precious time of the Empire's scientists.

"150 million light years?"

When Tang Boyuan heard this, he immediately rushed up to take a look. The two of them were the heads of the Imperial Institute of Astronomy and Astronomy. They didn't have to come out in person at all. However, with the existence of quantum communication, they can work in the same way wherever they go. He is the kind of person who likes to run around, so he also leads an inspection team to fly around.

"The spatial fluctuations also show the same, so it seems to be correct."

Tang Boyuan carefully compared the data of several scientific instruments. The principle of the space fluctuation instrument is very simple. Massive celestial bodies will cause distortion and folding of space, causing fluctuations in space. We also know that all celestial bodies in the universe are actually Moving along its own trajectory, including massive black holes.

These massive celestial bodies move in the universe, and the space fluctuations caused by them will propagate very, very far. By analyzing these space fluctuations, distances, movement trajectories, etc. can be accurately calculated.

This space fluctuation rangefinder is currently the empire's most accurate distance measurement method. Its error is very small. Of course, its applicable targets must be massive celestial bodies, such as massive black holes, river systems, etc. If the target mass is too large, Small, but not as accurate as other scientific instruments, because the space fluctuations caused by small-mass celestial bodies are very, very small, or even unable to cause space fluctuations at all.

"Start focusing in this direction and conduct a comprehensive analysis. It seems that our empire's first goal has been found."

Tang Boyuan became more energetic and issued an order to his team. The empire was ambitious and was not willing to be limited to the Chinese Star Boundary. The original goal was to capture a star continent first.

"It's best to see if we can find a space-time ocean current channel. According to our inference, this space-time ocean current channel should be within 1 million light-years from the star realm."

Dong Zhifei also became excited. The Imperial Institute of Astronomical Sciences has been searching throughout the Chinese Star Realm for a long time. Searches have been carried out in all directions. In other directions, the light closest to the Chinese Star Realm comes from 300 million light years away. In addition, with such a long distance, the current time and space gate of the empire cannot be reached at once, and can only be teleported to half of the location.

Now that the star realm of 150 million light years has been found, the empire's time and space gate can almost directly transport the fleet there. In this way, the empire can begin to invade this star realm.

Of course, it is best to find the space-time ocean current channel. Building a huge time-space gate is too expensive and takes hundreds of thousands of years. Now that the empire is undergoing a vigorous immigration, the finances are still relatively tight. If you can save it, you will naturally save it. It's better to come down.

Tang Boyuan's team began to get busy. On the large spacecraft, all kinds of instruments were turned on, and they were constantly drawing a star map of the distant starry sky. At the same time, from these large spacecraft, small unmanned spacecraft Constantly flying towards the void in all directions, as for those small detectors, etc., they were released as if they were free of charge.

The news soon spread back to the empire's base camp, and the empire's senior officials were also very excited. They finally found a target that they could attack. Li Fu even got excited and named this newly discovered continent 'Star Boundary'. It means the beginning of the empire's conquest of the cosmic interstellar sea.

Soon, the entire Han Yuan River system began to become lively. News spread within the empire. The people of the empire soon realized the value of the Han Yuan River system. This place is likely to be the starting point for the empire's future invasion of the star realm. The bridgehead, after the empire takes over the Star Boundary in the future, this will be the bridge connecting the two star realms, and it will be the hub and center of transportation.

If a space-time ocean current passage can be found here, it will be the best. In that case, the status of the Hanyuan River System will be even more unshakable. If there is no space-time ocean current passage, the empire will build a space-time gate here. The role of the space-time gate is naturally no doubt.

Since ancient times, any place on a transportation thoroughfare has become very wealthy. The Sui-Hangzhou Canal in ancient China has made both sides of the river the richest areas in China. Singapore, which is on a transportation thoroughfare, is rich just by doing some transit trade. Along the river , areas along rivers, coasts, roads, etc. all mean wealth.

The Han Yuan River system, which had previously been ignored, suddenly became a popular place. In a short period of time, hundreds of millions of people from the empire applied to immigrate to the Han Yuan River system, all wanting to seize the opportunity here.
