Chapter 386: Seventy Years
Time flies......
For the Riley civilization, the economic boom that had arisen out of thin air since the sudden departure of mankind quickly disappeared.
The wealthy nobles no longer threw money lavishly, and the hard-working slaves lost their chances of moving up and lived the difficult life they used to have.
It's just that it is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift, because life is unsatisfactory, and there are sporadic resistance among slaves. But only sporadically...... Many more simply endured, praying for the gods to save them once more.
These slaves were deeply committed to their religion, and they wanted to endure this life and be able to expect a good life in the next.
The Riley people do not know how humans came into being, nor how they disappeared, but there are more ambiguous accounts in history books and religious texts.
In most countries, there was a sudden increase in wealth, and many nobles used shiny metal items, including swords, cutlery, armor, and jewelry, which suddenly became priceless items.
The quality of human stainless steel products is undoubtedly quite good, and with human productivity, there is no need to lack catties or two. These metals, in this low-oxygen environment, can still shine after thousands of years if they are properly maintained.
The culture of extravagant etiquette swept the upper echelons of the world for a time, and in particular, the use of metal tableware and ornaments was considered an elegant act. Some down-and-out aristocrats are also reluctant to sell these metal utensils, because these are the last façade, and once they are sold, it will symbolize complete loneliness.
Including a certain poor person, who won the favor of mankind and donated precious plant specimens, he directly became a rich man and became a high-ranking person... Or maybe a person who was wounded on the battlefield was saved by a messenger of the gods because of his devout faith, and even gave some expensive gifts......
After being adapted into a fable, it has become a well-known bedtime story in the countryside, and it has been circulated and circulated.
The Riley people subconsciously attribute everything to the "gods", and they believe that it is the beautiful moral qualities of the Riley people that move the "gods...... Everyone likes to get rich all of a sudden, and they like pie-in-the-sky stories, don't they?
But there are also a small number of Riley people who have accidentally discovered the ...... that has been shelved
Knowledge!
They discovered the existence of "irrational numbers" with horror, and found that there is no way to measure everything with integers or the ratio of integers, which violates traditional wisdom.
They found out......
"Geocentric Theory" has been overthrown!
The book of "Divine Emissary" clearly states that Riley is not the center of the universe!
They even discovered the nature of the flame, which was not given by the gods, but had a deeper law......
The flame is just a "redox reaction"!
They also found ...... The Big Bang Theory!
This is simply terrifying, the universe was not created by gods, it originated from an explosion!
I discovered that there are more and more races in the universe that do not believe in gods, including these messengers, who are completely dismissive of their so-called gods! In particular, the part of "dialectical materialism" made several archbishops directly delete and commit suicide!
They were terrified, terrified.
He even began to wonder that humans were actually messengers sent by demons, and they were completely bewitching the Rileys.
But there are some uncertainties, after all, public opinion in the outside world has formed a fixed trend. If you talk nonsense again, you will definitely be sentenced to blasphemy.
Some people have torn these books to shreds, while others have been studying them.
No one knows, let alone predicts, whether this ignorant and ancient civilization will undergo major changes in the next million or tens of millions of years.
yes, who knows?
Even the Enlighteners have not been able to veto them, and there is no need for humanity to despise them excessively, let alone be complacent about being one step ahead.
The lead for a while and a half, in this universe, is really not worth mentioning.
The long road, with 100,000 years or even millions of years as the basic unit, whoever can laugh to the end is the real success.
Humans just hope that they can have good luck and ......
Come on.
……
The Kunlun Mountain Fleet soon got on track and disappeared into the dark universe......
According to the original route of the Badit civilization, the nearest intelligent civilization is 20 light-years away, which is quite a long way. And it is a very boring, non-growing, and even drug-addicted religious civilization, without any peculiarities.
Religious civilization is not enough, if there are some unique cultures, it is not bad to add material to the virtual world, and maybe you can also find a little trace left by the enlightened civilization.
But the fact that the whole people take drugs is very uncomfortable.
Scientists are not very interested in this kind of civilization and field research.
Therefore, people plan to try their luck by opening up a new route along another cosmic string.
This voyage can reach more planets, and if you can encounter another cosmic civilization with reference significance, it is best to have a low-level civilization, and maybe you can find traces of the enlightener civilization.
If you can't meet it, it can only be regarded as your own bad luck......
In this way, the whole journey will be longer, but the final destination is still the trading market of the Huantai civilization, and it has not changed.
And just like that, ten years have passed.
Twenty years have passed......
Thirty years have passed......
In the thirty-fifth year, humanity reached its first star, a red dwarf star that does not emit light very much, which is lower than that of Gliese 581.
It was too cold here, and people didn't encounter any life on nearby planets, so they just replenished some resources and left in a hurry......
Forty years, fifty years, sixty years, seventy years......
Humanity has reached a second planetary system.
It is a binary star system consisting of white and yellow dwarfs. But the environment of the binary star system is still too harsh, and the white dwarf is absorbing the material of the yellow dwarf, so that the entire planetary system is in an unstable state.
People have found some simple single-celled microorganisms on nearby planets, and there are no complex multicellular organisms.
These simple microorganisms provide a relatively good sample for the theory of the origin of life, but they are limited to this.
This in itself is the norm of interstellar travel, and decades, hundreds of years of waiting, just to wait for a little surprise to happen.
There is a high probability that nothing will be gained......
And life itself is like this, ordinary, where do so many excitement and waves come from?
In the eyes of the new generation who have just been born in these years, the interstellar war that happened in the past has not been too painful for a long time, and it has become a very good talking point.
Many video games are modeled after that war.
Fortunately, there is a virtual world, and interstellar warfare exercises are a must-have course for citizens. After being educated about real pain and death, everyone realized that ordinary is true, and ordinary is the most difficult, but there are no complex social problems such as war entertainment.
