"At the beginning, there was a large number of blue-shifted light sources in the background of the starry sky."

Looking at the starry system from afar, the flickering blue-shifted light sources in the background of the starry sky are like bright stars, which are the sub-light-speed biological clusters that have traveled from the black hole for decades to reach the terminal at a distant scale that spans dozens of light-years.

"They're here, but it's still too far away, wait for them to close the distance to our star system, and then deliver a message welcoming the arrival of their kind."

They were first ordered to go out, and they were to fulfill the obligation of stationing their races to their fellow people who had come from afar and were about to arrive at their destination star.

"Hmm."

At this time, the cluster of sub-light organisms has not completely gotten rid of the star rainbow effect, and they have no knowledge of the outside world due to the failure of the bioradar, but one thing they are sure of is that they are about to arrive at the destination star, and after receiving the feedback signal from the destination star, they begin to sail at a uniform deceleration.

"It's finally coming, and I'm tired of the continuous acceleration and deceleration."

"No way, this is for the safety of navigation, the farther you sail, the greater the consumption of the antimatter shield, we need to reserve enough antimatter for slowing down, and as the distance stretches, the unknown danger also increases exponentially."

Traveling at sub-light speeds in succession, these gatherers are doing what they did at the beginning, using colonized star systems as transit stations to achieve large-scale voyages spanning tens of hundreds of light-years.

"What are you thinking?"

"The feedback from the same family of the last star system, our destination star has already been visited by a group of the same family, which means that there are already people of the same family who have made contact with the Luo civilization before us."

"Then the Luo people we carried are useless? In this case, you can lose it, reduce the mass, and consume less antimatter when you slow down. The gatherer with Connor the Lokren, thought for a moment and asked.

However, some gatherers rejected the idea.

"No, let's keep it for now, returning that Luo people to the Luo civilization will help the tribe in terms of diplomacy, and his own mass is not a large proportion of our organisms, and the antimatter consumed by the deceleration is negligible."

Connor, who was sleeping in the body of a sublight-speed creature, didn't know that he had just walked out of the ghost gate so inadvertently.

"Who is leading the cluster to our destination star?"

"It's the beginning."

"Is it it?!"

Many collectors were surprised.

"Hmm."

Because of the relationship between the shrinkage effect of sub-light speed navigation, from the perspective of the navigator himself, it does not take much time to cross the scale of light grades, days, hours, minutes, seconds, or even a second, which is the particularity of traveling close to the speed of light, and the time of the voyager himself will pass very slowly.

This kind of time is objective time, not a slowdown of conscious time, but a slowdown of material time, and even the decay of particles will slow down together.

So although their deceleration lasted for a long time on the macroscopic scale, from the observers' own perspective, the deceleration did not last long, and after the astral rainbow effect disappeared, they were directly in front of them a bright yellow dwarf, which was the star to which they were on this voyage.

"Welcome to this star system."

"Follow this route to anchor."

After a period of escaping the shrinkage effect, the gatherers approaching their destination star received a welcome message from them.

According to their initial arrangement, the sub-light biological cluster entered the stellar orbit and anchored.

Before the collectors who had come from afar could say anything, the native gatherers had delivered the information first.

"You're finally here, we've been waiting for you for a long time."

"What about the aliens? Brought? Where is it? We're looking for him. ”

The sub-lightspeed creatures were stunned and replied.

"Brought, now sleeping in the body of an individual in a cluster, his body is fragile and cannot withstand the recoil caused by excessive acceleration and deceleration, so we placed him in a gel cavity during the sub-light voyage to avoid being harmed during the sub-light voyage."

"Is there anything you're looking for him?"

The sub-lightspeed creatures asked suspiciously, they didn't understand why these gatherers were in a hurry to find Connor of the Lo people in the first place, could it be because of diplomatic problems with the Luo civilization?

"We wanted to ask him some questions." The native gatherer replied.

"Then you need to set up the environment first, he is very fragile like the Seren, he is directly exposed to the space environment, he will die soon, what questions do you want to ask him?"

"We want to know, what's going on on the planet that their race lives in the sixth orbit of this star system? And where did their civilization go after this? ”

"Oh, what's that? There is no civilization in this star system?! ”

The sub-light-speed creatures, who had just arrived, were suddenly shocked by this information, and for a moment, thousands of thoughts turned back to their minds, wondering if their calculations had gone wrong.

But this doesn't make sense, because they did make Connor the Lo people confirm that it was the Lo people who were lying?

At first, they explain the cause.

"There are traces of civilization, but for unknown reasons, it no longer exists, it may be leaving, it may be destruction, according to the aliens you have brought, it seems that the result is the former."

It's not that it doesn't exist, it's that it's gone, and the sublight-speed creatures have some thoughts in their minds.

"Don't be in a hurry to draw conclusions, let's explain the time when the traces of civilization in this star system disappeared, and the reasons for the disappearance."

Upon hearing inquiries from their kindred, they replied with their own summary and analysis.

"According to the traces left behind, it is speculated that 70,000 years ago from the present time, the alien civilization in this star system disappeared, and the planet inhabited by this alien race also exploded 70,000 years ago for unknown reasons, and we speculate that this may be the root cause of the disappearance of this civilization."

"Since you have found that the intelligent species of this civilization is still alive, it means that the alien civilization in this star system should have left, and we want to ask the aliens you found about the location of their civilization."

Originally, it was a sure thing, but the answer of the sub-light creatures surprised them at first.

"If that's the case, then I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed, and the alien we brought with you won't prove anything."

"Why?"

"That alien left this star system 70,000 years ago, and according to his previous verbal description, the technological level of their civilization is not high, so the possibility of civilization destruction is greater."

"This information will be a big blow to that Luo people, he wants to return to his civilization, but his hometown has been blown up, and civilization has disappeared without a trace."
