New Era 17 years.

It has been 5 years since the discovery of the genetically modified experiment of the engineer civilization, and the 5 years of the interstellar era are just a flick of a finger.

The Moon's Galaxy Group office is still decorated as it was five years ago, with a lot of greenery in its simplicity.

Li Can had just received a report from the investigation team monitoring the Chijing Civilization, and after reading it, he squinted his eyes and said to himself: "It's been five years, and I finally caught your feet." ”

They scanned all the regions of the entire Chi Crystal Galaxy, not even the stars, and in one asteroid, they found a surveillance ship disguised as rock.

The spacecraft is between 85~273 meters in size and uses degenerate materials as its outer shell, and its existence cannot be discovered at all without careful investigation.

The Engineer's spaceship seems to have adopted a silent state of passive detection in order to avoid being discovered by the Chijing civilization.

In addition, within the Chijing civilization, similar nanobots have also been discovered, which are most likely controlled through quantum communication.

The investigation team that has observed the Chijing civilization for several years has not found that they possess quantum communication technology and nanorobotics.

The answer is about to come out, these things are one of the backhands of the engineer civilization left in the Chijing civilization.

Li Can instructed: "Let the various investigation teams pay attention to concealment, and then return to the solar system." ”

"No problem." Deng Fuxing nodded.

The withdrawal of these star systems does not mean that the new humans have completely abandoned monitoring these civilizations, but instead used the more stealthy quantum wormhole detection.

Li Can picked up another document, which was an assessment report on the Wingman civilization, whose threat level had skyrocketed recently.

Because they officially developed a spacecraft with a speed of up to 2,400 kilometers per second, laser weapons and electromagnetic guns are becoming more and more mature.

It's just that the war within them has become more and more intense, and the three forces of the Winged People, under the coercion of the war, have frantically invested in the research and development of weapons and equipment.

The new humans who regard the galaxy as their backyard will naturally not allow the winged human civilization to advance to the intermediate civilization, and even if there is only the slightest possibility, they will be nipped in the bud.

However, this matter is not something that he Li Can should think about, and if he sends the document to the war committee, there will naturally be a professional organization to deal with this matter.

……

The Space Exploration Center, on its part, has expanded its exploration to a radius of 130 million light-years in the past five years.

It's just that the traces of the engineer civilization have still not been found, but there are not a few primary civilizations that have been discovered, and there are even many primary subversive civilizations.

In addition to exploring around the Milky Way, the Center for Space Exploration now has two very distant coordinates, one 170 billion light-years from the Milky Way and one 357 billion light-years from the Milky Way.

The two new coordinates are not for exploring the Engineer civilization or the Reaper civilization, but for the purpose of arranging the civilization seed base.

As the so-called cunning rabbit three caves, Tianya is still not safe for a civilization seed, so it has opened up the Xuanyuan civilization seed base and the Shennong civilization seed base.

These two civilization seed bases are one of the small actions of the new human race in the near future, so prepare a few more hands so as not to be crammed temporarily.

……

Xuanyuan, the fifth planet - Mars.

This is a natural planet of life, and since the last discovery of the genetically modified experimental organisms of the engineer civilization, the new humans must have conducted a careful investigation of the planet before exploring the alien planet.

Lest you run into the experimental planet of a mid-to-high-level civilization again, not every time you are so lucky, and if it is discovered by other civilizations, it will lead to serious consequences.

At this time, there are only three observatories on Mars, and the civilization seed base is on the planet's Lagrange point L1.

The scale is similar to that of Ice Mars, with a population of more than 10,000 and a complete industrial system, which can restart a new human civilization at any time.

It's just that at this time, the civilization seed of Mars has not yet entered the active state, and it is still in a silent and dormant state.

Satellite towns.

Ma Hongzhang, chairman of the city council, nostalgically rubbed the medal in his hand, which was a medal of the new era, called the "Civilization Purification Medal".

In that year, he led the engineering corps to build the Northeast Neutrino Shielding Station; In the First Battle of Purification, he participated in a series of battles such as the Seattle landing in North America; In the Second Battle of Purification, he led the legion to capture New York State.

This time, he came to Xuanyuan to guard Mars, and he also took the initiative to apply for it, he was willing to be the seed of a new human civilization, even if it was a seed that would never sprout, he had no regrets.

Looking at the blue planet in the void not far away, how similar it was to the mother planet, but Ma Hongzhang knew that the task of the seed of civilization might be a lifelong mission.

Turning his head to leave a trace of sadness behind, he continued to be busy with the work of the Flame Satellite City, and with more than 500 years to live, he may spend the rest of his life here.

……

also came with Ma Hongzhang, as well as Cai Minqin, who was also from the engineering corps.

He was the director of the logistics department of the Flame Satellite City, and he had just finished sorting out the supplies and looked at the time on his watch.

Although the day of Mars is 26.7 hours, the time in the Flame satellite ship still uses Blue Star time.

This watch is not a product of New Era, but a mechanical watch that he has brought with him for almost twenty years, and the nostalgic Cai Minqin has not abandoned this watch.

The time had come to 11:43 a.m., and he looked at some of the conditions of the degenerate material manufacturing plant, and now the four degenerate material manufacturing plants were ready for production.

These four degenerate material manufacturing plants can allow the Flame Satellite City to complete the internal circulation of the industry, and no longer rely on the input of Blue Star.

I sorted out the relevant materials and prepared to report to Ma Hongzhang in the afternoon.

Before the time came to 12:11, Cai Minqin walked towards the nearby buffet, the area where they worked was a quasi-gravity zone.

In the restaurant, there were already many newcomers queuing, and after a while, it was his turn to take back the pot meat, spicy rabbit head, mapo tofu, bacon fried lettuce, and a bowl of tea tree mushroom chicken soup.

He still likes the taste of his hometown, and just sat down for a few minutes, Ma Hongzhang also made a meal and sat opposite him.

The two of them discussed some things in the Flame Satellite City while eating, and Cai Minqin also took the opportunity to report on the progress of the degenerate material manufacturing plant.

In this vast starry sky, more than 10,000 of them can only watch and help each other, silently waiting for the last seed for mankind.

That kind of unspeakable loneliness can only be understood when you are in it.

Half an hour later, Ma Hongzhang seemed to have something urgent, so he hurried back to the office, and Cai Minqin, who was left alone, also wiped out the meal with three strikes and five divisions.

Standing on the starry sky observation deck in the cafeteria, Cai Minqin stretched his waist and silently looked at the bright galaxy.

Suddenly, on a whim, he took out a harmonica from his pocket and played a song reverently.

Starlight! Starlight!

Please send my thoughts light years away.

In that period of airwaves,

It's my reluctant thoughts.

Galaxy! Galaxy!

Why are you so vast?

Among the stars,

There is the home planet that haunts me.

Starlight! Starlight!

Can you bring me back the call of the galaxy?

On that beam of photons,

Whether there is the light of the sun.

Galaxy! Galaxy!

Even at a distance of billions of light-years,

In that line of text,

It's an indelible memory for me.
