Chapter 122, Beirut Empire
The "Explorer" space battleship continues to advance in the void, and in the void of about 1 million kilometers in front of this huge space battleship, the Beirut Imperial patrol spaceship is leading the way.
"Inform it, don't be vigilant, and if there is anything wrong, flee immediately."
Liao Yuan looked at the void in front of him, still maintaining a high degree of vigilance, for fear that something would happen, after all, this is the other party's territory, and it is far away from the base camp, once something happens, it will be beyond the reach of the whip.
Thankfully, everything went very smoothly, nothing happened along the way, and the people of the Beirut Empire seemed to be quite friendly and did not act rashly.
Even as you slowly enter the interior of this planetary system, you can see more and more spaceships, space construction, etc., and the spaceships and the like encountered along the way are very interesting to change their course, far away from the 'Explorer', as if they are afraid of disturbing the guests who come far away.
It's like a passage specially opened up for the 'Explorer', of course, the cosmic void is very empty, even if it is busy, there is enough space.
The 'Explorer' space battleship is still on high alert, with a large number of space fighters escorting in the void at all times, and energy weapons are also in a state of attack at all times.
However, to have the opportunity to know a new civilization, everyone on the battleship was full of excitement, at this time, all kinds of detectors on the battleship were fully opened, and a steady stream of information from the surrounding void was received, and a prosperous country was displayed in everyone's field of vision.
This is a country that has developed to the pinnacle of Level 2 cosmic civilization, and it should have a relatively long history, and the development of the entire planetary system is very high.
A large number of resource mining ships can be found in the outermost Kuiper Belt area, and the mining method is not limited to shipping asteroids back, but in many cases, it is specially selected for high-value minerals to be mined.
A resource mining spaceship is usually large in size, hauling asteroids to its side, and then smashing the asteroids, picking only the most valuable parts to mine, and leaving the others with no or less valuable value to be mined.
This is an extremely efficient way to mine and maximize the value of each of your actions, and the Kuiper Belt is far from the central region of the planetary system, at least a few dozen astronomical units away, and it is extremely difficult to travel back and forth.
Such resource-mining spaceships often travel for several years, and only when they obtain sufficient value of minerals will they return again.
After flying through the Kuiper Belt area, it becomes more lively, with more spaceships, and special space ports for resource replenishment, spaceship mooring, and so on.
In addition, there is a military port and fleet dedicated to the Beirut Imperial Army, which is stationed in the Beirut Empire's space fleet to defend the planetary system.
At this point, the Explorer spacecraft was carried by the spacecraft in front of it to a spaceport.
"Guests from afar, please forgive us for not being able to give you access to the interior of our system, so if there is anything to buy or sell, it will be fine in this spaceport."
Berosa sent such a message to the Explorer.
The news of the arrival of a spaceship from the Light Domain has also been reported, and the relevant information now has also been reported to the upper echelons of the Beirut Empire.
"Okay, thank you very much for your Imperial hospitality."
The control and command center of the 'Explorer' space battleship, Liao Yuan ordered this response, and at the same time looked at the space port in the void that was gradually enlarged.
The scale of this space port is relatively small, it looks like it is several times larger than the 'Explorer', and the spaceships moored in it are also petite, most of them are at the same level as the Miron-level cosmic civilization, and the larger spaceships can't be seen.
When the Explorer slowly approached, it was as if a huge cloud had shrouded it, making the Beirut Empire people in the spaceport can't help but widen their eyes.
"This spaceship is too big, it's the largest spaceship I've ever seen."
In the space port, I saw that the huge spaceship in the void was slowly docking, and the spaceship was brightly lit, like a huge palace.
The people of the Beirut Empire couldn't help but marvel one by one, such a large spaceship is rare, very rare to be seen.
Although the Beirut Empire is a level 2 cosmic civilization with a long history, it can only live in a planetary system 400 light-years away from the Light Domain, and its strength and status can actually be imagined.
The history of the Beirut Empire is more than a million years, and a long time ago, the Beirut Empire actually originated as a civilization in the sea of stars (light domain), and continued to grow and develop in the sea of stars, and developed smoothly all the way to a level 2 cosmic civilization.
However, the Chinese of Xinghan is prosperous, and the competition is extremely fierce, because the distance between stars and stars is too close, so as long as it can develop to level 2 cosmic civilization, it can basically embark on the road of interstellar expansion and continue to expand to adjacent stars.
The same is true of the Beirut Empire, which continued to expand externally from its home galaxy, and was once ambitious, but soon encountered other level 2 cosmic civilizations, and then experienced a long period of war.
Then the Beirut Empire was beaten all over the ground by other powerful civilizations, and finally even its home system was lost, leaving only a few fleeing seed fleets to flee in all directions of the Star Sea.
One of the seed fleets decided to leave the fierce competition in the Star Sea, far away from the land of right and wrong, so they also fled to the periphery of the Star Sea, and finally after a long time of escaping, they came to the current place, and finally slowly took root here, continuing the fire of their civilization.
No one remembers what this planetary system was originally called, but now it is called the Beirut Galaxy.
The Beirut galaxy is 400 light-years away from the sea of stars, and without mastering the warp engine technology, it takes a long time to travel back and forth to the sea of stars, which can take tens of thousands of years.
So it is far away from the cruel competition in the sea of stars, far away from too much right and wrong, but in the same way, the development of civilization in the Beirut Empire has always been stagnant, and in such a long time, the level of scientific and technological development of the Beirut Empire has almost stagnated, and it is difficult to make a breakthrough.
This power technology has always used plasma power technology, and plasma power technology has a limitation, and there is no way to build too large spaceships and space warships.
A spaceship like the Qinglong class is almost the limit, and no matter how big it is, because it doesn't have enough power to push it, it becomes bloated and has no real meaning.
Therefore, when they saw the 'Explorer' spaceship, these Beirut Empire people were shocked by its huge body, and their Beirut Empire's spaceship was really like a child's toy compared to it.
In order to allow the 'Explorer' to dock, the port also deliberately cleaned up and relocated the other Beirut Imperial spacecraft, so that the 'Explorer' spacecraft could dock.
The Beirut galaxy is 400 light-years away from the Optical Domain, and it is too inconvenient to travel to and from such a long distance, and in the long years in the past, there were very few spaceships from other civilizations visiting the Beirut Galaxy, let alone spaceships from the Optical Domain.
The Beirut galaxy and the nearest planetary system, the Suleiman Empire, are almost 1 light-year away, and there used to be visits by spaceships from the Suleiman Empire, but they usually only come and go once every ten years, and each exchange is a huge business event for the Beirut Empire.
On the one hand, the Beirut Empire is tired of the cruel competition in the sea of stars, but on the other hand, it is eager to have more communication with other civilizations, but around the Beirut system, the density of stars is too low, the distance between each other is too far, and it is inconvenient to travel to and from each other, even if they are very close, there is very little contact.
As for the caravans from the sea of stars, it has been a long, long time since they appeared, and in the records of the history of the Beirut Empire, the last time a caravan from the sea of stars, spaceships, etc., was more than 10,000 years ago.
Of course, the Beirut Empire still knows some things in the sea of stars, because on this part of the journey of the Beirut galaxy through the sea of stars, there are one or two civilizations in almost every planetary system, and there are still some exchanges between everyone.
Therefore, through this caravan between planetary systems, they can still know some news from each other inside the Star Sea, but this news may have happened thousands of years ago.
Closed messages and inconvenient communication are the reality of the Beirut system.
Of course, if it weren't for the fact that it was far away from the sea of stars, the distance between the stars was relatively large, and the Beirut Empire might not have been able to develop in peace.
You must know that the closer to the sea of stars, the smaller the distance between the stars, and the greater the density, the stronger the civilization that occupies these places, and civilizations like the Beirut Empire can't compete with these powerful civilizations at all, so they can only survive in places like Beirut that are far away from the sea of stars.
This is also the norm of civilization around the Star Sea, the loser will either accept the exploitation and domination of the strong, or move to the outside of the Star Sea, away from the land of right and wrong, to a place where there is not much competition, and live a life of paradise.
