Count the time.

From the day the Millennium Exploration Project departed.

Nearly 500 years have passed.

It's more than halfway.

This world, this universe, has changed dramatically.

The Milky Way and the Andromeda Galaxy are integrated and unified.

The interstellar highway extends in all directions, the Milky Way has become a three-month economic exchange circle, and a trip to the Andromeda Galaxy only takes four years.

Technology is developing by leaps and bounds.

Taking the current Solar System Human Federation as an example, in the past five hundred years, the Human Federation has undergone unimaginable changes.

The level of science and technology has been upgraded to level six, and the triple jump has been achieved.

Military strength, ranked second in the galaxy, ranked in the top three in the Silver Immortal Federation, after all, with more than 100,000 ships, the top version of the "Titan Behemoth Class" ranks second in the Silver Immortal Federation, second only to the "Federation Combined Fleet".

In addition, it occupies 100 leading stars, has a population of more than 300 billion, has an extremely developed economic level, and has a per capita income of more than 10 million.

The richest entrepreneur bought a personal heavy element planet, a whole planet, all private, and plenty of money and resources to transform the planet into a more precious "habitable planet" and build a private small kingdom.

It's just that on the Blue Star, some of the poorest groups still have no fixed homes, no clothing, and serious malnutrition.

There is still no way to eradicate absolute poverty.

It can only be said that the gap between people is simply bigger than that between humans and animals, and it will be widened even more in the future.

Besides.

After entering the era of the Star Federation.

In addition, the rapid development of science and technology, the great convenience of logistics and passenger flow, and the elven civilization on the other side of the Andromeda galaxy have formed a strategic alliance with the Human Federation, which has greatly accelerated the efficiency of human civilization in exploring outer space.

Because the elven civilization is willing to sell 20 high-level evolved "Tree of Life" seeds to human civilization at the price of 1 medium-sized dark energy ball.

And with the Tree of Life seed, the efficiency of opening up other galaxies can be accelerated by hundreds or thousands of times at once.

After all, as long as there is more water resources, and then throw a "tree of life" seed on a heavy element planet, about twenty years later, you can get a huge tree of life, with oxygen and gravity, allowing humans to survive without protection.

And the high-level evolved version of the "Tree of Life"? Have the ability to move freely? Move it to the vicinity of the barren planet and deliver oxygen through the vines? It can also greatly speed up the environmental transformation of other planets.

Exploit the efficiency of alien planets? It can be said that it has sped up a lot.

And one more wonderful thing.

That is the high-level evolutionary version of the "Tree of Life", which has entered the fruiting period? After growing silver fruits, golden fruits, and holy light fruits, can you breed female elves on your own? Just landed only 6-year-old girl.

Cultivated to over 20 years old? The elves have come of age, and due to the modification of their genetic structure, they have the ability to combine with humans and give birth to new offspring? That is, the problem of reproductive isolation is solved.

It's just wonderful.

On the one hand, the tree of life is used to speed up the transformation of the ecological environment.

On the other hand, it provides a lot of beauty energy? After establishing an intimate relationship with humans, new species can be born, and the problem of some singles can be solved.

The Tree of Life Race High!

The price of seeds is also not too expensive.

On the Human Federation's side, they took out a large number of dark energy balls and purchased tens of thousands of Tree of Life seeds? This particular item is highly sought after.

However, the Black Hole Group didn't buy much? Although he also has a very strong curiosity and nature about the seeds of the Tree of Life.

Because scientists of the Black Hole Group believe after research: in the seeds of the tree of life? It is likely that there is a "back door" set up by the elven civilization, which is encoded in the underlying genes in advance.

The source of the Tree of Life? Is it the highest sacred tree of light? As long as the source is still there? All the Trees of Life will obey the orders of the Sacred Tree of Light, just like the few supreme instructions at the bottom of the intelligent robot, and they cannot be disobeyed and resisted - so perhaps as long as the Sacred Tree of Light gives an order, these high-level Trees of Life will instantly jump back and join the camp of the elven civilization.

As for those female elves born from the tree of life, will they also defect under the influence of spiritual energy and become time bombs?

The encounter of the fall of the 7998th Squadron, the Black Hole Group has a special research file, believing that the elven civilization should not be underestimated, there are many routines, and the potential is quite terrifying.

Once there is a deep cooperation with the elven civilization, a deep integration occurs.

In the future, it may be similar to the "Trojan Horse Massacre", and the interests will be greatly harmed.

and even fell into a catastrophe from which it never recovered.

So with this in mind, the Black Hole Group did not carry out in-depth cooperation with the elven civilization, and did not buy a single seed of the Tree of Life.

But the Human Federation is shouting "It's really fragrant".

The speed of interstellar development has increased by a thousand times, occupying tens of thousands of star systems, and in just a few decades, the sphere of influence has expanded a hundredfold.

Some time ago.

The fleet of the Silver Immortal Federation traveled to the Magellan system, annihilating the last remnants of the Maca civilization and occupying a new sphere of influence in the Magellanic system.

The Magellanic galaxy is mainly composed of the Large Magellanic Nebula, which contains about 1 million stars, as well as countless magnificent nebulae, and the content of dark matter and dark energy is quite high, which is an ideal place to explore.

It's just a million stars.

Longer distances.

Other civilizations have little interest in the Magellanic system and are unwilling to invest resources in exploitation.

However, the Human Federation and the Elven civilization are very interested, and the environment of the nebula is very suitable for the growth of the tree of life, so they applied to take over and develop the resources of the Magellanic system.

For this matter, the Black Hole Group, especially Wei Ming, has no objection.

However, the Human Federation has applied for a loan, or the Tree of Life seed payment, to obtain 1 million medium-sized dark energy balls to speed up the development of the Magellanic system, which will be repaid with interest in the future.

This cooperation application was rejected by the Black Hole Group.

In other words, Wei Ming vetoed this cooperation on the grounds that "there are hidden dangers", but he did not say what the specific hidden dangers were, but only expressed a clear attitude of opposition.

The loan of millions of dark energy balls cannot be approved.

Then groups of pleading and lobbying groups came, but Wei Ming's attitude was very firm, unmoved, and he just didn't issue loans.

The project dragged on for several years, which in turn caused strong dissatisfaction in the public opinion field of the Human Federation.

Above the blue star, there were many voices of criticism.

The glorious empire on Mars, the honorable queen Xu Chuxia, not only sent a number of envoys, but also sent a long handwritten letter, asking why Wei Ming opposed the project of "Developing the Magellan System".

In the letter, Xu Chuxia said:

"Experts have studied that the concentration of dark energy in the Large Magellanic Cloud is 1 million times that of the conventional environment, and the amount that can be collected is at least 500 billion units."

"The high-level version of the Tree of Life can already absorb the dark energy that is free in the universe, and collect a large amount of it, store it in the tree, and use it at any time."

"If dark energy is compared to oil, then the reserves in the Big Magellanic Cloud have reached 500 billion barrels, which can be compressed into 5 billion medium-sized dark energy balls, and the total annual GDP of the Human Federation is only equivalent to 170 medium-sized dark energy balls."

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime fortune project!"

"Yes, that's right, for your Black Hole Group, 5 billion dark energy balls are nothing, and you can easily earn them, but you have to consider the feelings of our sixth-level civilizations, we can't always engage in some low-end commercial activities with low yields, we also have to rush to high-end industries, especially the dark energy industry."

"Do me a favor, I'm your wife, a wife I haven't seen in five hundred years! Don't you want to help at all, it's just a million dark energy balls, I know you have them, and there are far more than that, and it's not that I don't pay interest on my side, it's good for everyone. ”

"Hurry up and agree, do yourself a favor, there will be absolutely no problems."

“……”

I wrote a lot of it.

Wei Ming was not only not moved, but felt extremely strange and weird, the person who wrote this letter to himself was actually his wife?

……

Genuine readers can read the genuine version after five to ten minutes of refreshing, and the front reading is slightly slower, and then re-downloaded, which is basically unaffected.

"Why don't you go back to the countryside, rent a house with a small yard, and then grow some vegetables in the yard, raise some chickens and ducks, if you feel tired, you can put on a backpack and go to the neighborhood to go hiking, or bring a fishing rod and fish in the lake......"

"This kind of life may also be very good."

Wei Ming's face showed a look of longing, and he even had an impulse in his heart.

After all, as a freelancer, he can go anywhere in the world, and there is no need to stay stuck in a big city and breathe uncomfortable turbid air all day long.

Moreover, the cost of living in the countryside is not high, and you can also grow your own vegetables and breed them, which is suitable for health preservation and full of fun.

It's a good idea to go to the countryside and develop.

Quasar.

The oldest, most massive, and most energy-dense object in the universe.

They are the product of the evolution of galaxies to the end, and their core is generally a massive black hole with millions to tens of trillions of masses of the Sun, surrounded by nebula dust with a diameter of tens to tens of thousands of light-years.

Under the huge gravitational pull of the black hole at the core of the quasar, the dust of the surrounding nebula continues to fall into the center of the black hole, which is shaped like a giant eye-shaped accretion disk.

Due to the fall of a large amount of matter, at the poles of the black hole, a huge amount of conversion energy will push a large number of high-energy particles to be ejected outward at a speed infinitely close to the speed of light, forming two huge pillars of light.

Right here and now.

In a star field 12.7 billion light-years away from the blue star, a quasar with a core black hole with a mass of more than 1,000 trillion suns, after swallowing enough material, caused by quantitative change, suddenly exploded!

A violent ray burst eruption was formed.

Among the countless high-energy particles ejected, there is a strange high-energy particle, which contains unimaginable energy, very similar to the primordial particles that were born in a very short time during the Big Bang.

Then, at a speed far exceeding the speed of light, beyond common sense, he crossed endless time and space, and flew in a certain direction of the blue star.

As evening approached, it was getting dark.

The row of turquoise office buildings across the river began to light up with colorful neon lights.

I remembered my good years when I was only 26 years old.

It began to exude a thick twilight like the twilight of this evening, and I fantasized about living an idyllic and comfortable rural life.

Forty years of early retirement.

"Is it really appropriate to think about retirement so early, eat and wait for death?"

"Painting a two-dimensional cute girl every day, can you fill the emptiness of no object?"

"Isn't it better to have a house and a car in this prosperous world to have a place of your own than to be empty and not leave something in the world?"

"Life cannot be as brilliant as a summer flower, but at least it must emit a little light and heat that people can see, just like that meteor, like a red line, although inconspicuous, but piercing the sky."

"No, why did that meteor fly towards me?"

I am surprised!

There was no time to dodge, and the thin red line went straight into Wei Ming's forehead and entered his brain.

Boom!

Wei Ming's eyes seemed to reproduce the scene of the Big Bang, endless energy and dazzling firelight, jumping and shining in front of him, showing countless changes, forming an orange world of fire, full of rage, disorder and chaos.
