The dark and vast deep space of the universe,

The Forsaken hovers silently,

That's because there is no reference.

So even though the spacecraft is traveling at more than 30,000 kilometers per second, it still looks stationary.

In order to save energy and reduce consumption, the inertial flight of the Forsaken spacecraft also fell asleep like the man inside.

After all, this is a long interstellar journey of 260,000 years, and even the most energy-intensive work projects cannot withstand the accumulation of time.

Xiaole once calculated that if the Forsaken did not go into hibernation together, the electricity and energy reserves would not last for a thousand or ten thousand years, and basically even a hundred years would not last.

Therefore, all non-essential equipment must be shut down!

Because of this, if you look at it from the outside, the entire spaceship is only an artificial gravity area that has been rotating by inertia, never stopping.

But at this time, the entire body of the Forsaken was pitch black, and its interior was as cold and dark as cosmic space.

So much so that without the help of radar or gravitational detection, it would be impossible to detect a spaceship in the void with the naked eye.

This is what the Forsaken looks like for the vast majority of the time.

Walking through the dark landscape, the stars occasionally twinkle, but the universe is always quiet.

It's all like a wild lake,

In the middle of the lake floated a small gray boat,

Quietly,

No one bothered,

It's a good story.

……

Of course, the Forsaken has not been inactive during its dormancy.

Every year or so, there is a little movement inside the ship.

For example:

The temperature control system will be activated once in a while.

The lighting system will be lit regularly for a period of time,

The pipes of the oxygen and water circulation system are emptied once,

The air pressurization system will also simply run and complete a cycle.

The auxiliary power system, on the other hand, will make up for the kinetic energy lost in the rotation of the artificial gravity region over the past year, because the uneven mass distribution inside the spacecraft, as well as the friction of the connecting parts, will gradually slow down the rotation.

This is necessary to maintain standard gravity values to ensure a healthy foundation for astronauts.

Of course, the movement will soon fade away, and the Forsaken will soon return to calm, dark, and cold.

Because the above is just artificial intelligence Xiaole is testing the various module systems of the spacecraft to prevent the equipment from failing for a long time.

Yes, artificial intelligence has been operating like this, year after year, and it has been going on for 100,000 Earth years.

Yes, because AI has no emotions, AI is not afraid of loneliness.

Yes, maybe maybe it should be.

……

On this day, the AI gave the command to restore the power supply to the Forsaken, and the interior of the ship was immediately filled with soft light.

Next, the artificial intelligence turned on the temperature control system, so that the working and living areas inside the spacecraft were restored to a constant temperature environment suitable for humans.

Then 78% of nitrogen, 21% of oxygen, 1% of carbon dioxide and other gases, including the necessary moisture in the air, were also gradually released and quickly filled the interior of the spacecraft.

All this heralds the end of another 10,000-year dormant cycle.

At this moment, the Forsaken is the first to awaken, and it is preparing for the awakening of the only astronaut on board.

……

Some people say that if a person spends too much time alone, there will always be some psychological or physical problems.

What's more, this person has been in a coma for up to 100,000 years.

Airplanes...... Airplanes...... Airplanes......

In a relatively dimly lit chamber in the back half of the spaceship, a square hibernation pod is emitting a constant humming sound.

The dormant hatch is about to open, and the owner of the spaceship, the only human being, is lying flat in it, while the dormant system is making final preparations for its resuscitation.

Because the upper part of the lid of the dormant pod is transparent, you can see through the canopy the appearance of a HUACO mirror.

His demeanor was not peaceful, his eyes were closed, his heart rate was significantly lower than normal, his body temperature was low, and his breathing was slow.

About an hour later.

Hua Kejing did not regain his shallow consciousness as before.

Another hour passed, and Hua Kejing still showed no signs of waking up.

"It's time for you to wake up."

A thought was directly conveyed by Xiaole to Hua Kejing's brain consciousness, but it still failed to wake him up.

10,000 years of dormancy is indeed a risky thing.

Before leaving the solar system, Hua Kejing had been told the relevant details many times.

To put it bluntly,

In addition to the sequelae that are likely to occur, it is also possible that he will never wake up after a certain hibernation.

Of course, this is the first time this has happened.

At this time, Xiaole has begun to conduct an in-depth examination of Hua Kejing's physical condition and concluded:

The brain loses too much water and has a slight atrophy.

Adhesions were found in three arteries.

.

.

.

After ascertaining the condition, a medical device appeared on each side of the hibernation chamber, with a total of 16 needles hanging from their robotic arms.

Under Xiaole's control, these needles pierced into different parts of Hua Kejing's body at the same time.

After the injections of potions and plasma products of different colors were completed one after another, the sleep chamber regained its calm again, and Xiaole did not send any more signals to Hua Kejing's brain.

Over time, these injectable drugs finally started to work,

The monitoring data of the sleep chamber showed that the heartbeat and breathing of the Huake mirror were gradually increasing and successfully returned to normal levels.

But Hua Kejing was still in the deepest sleep, and did not seem to wake up in the slightest.

Finally, after another 6 hours,

"Ah...... Ah......h

A low moan rang out, and the occupants of the hibernation pod slowly opened their eyes and shouted.

"Little Joy ......"

"I'm here."

"Why ...... Crazy me...... Accelerating the pace towards the interstellar? ”

"Why ...... Borrow my hand...... to influence the whole world...... Technological progress? ”

Hua Kejing, who woke up, did not ask "Who am I?" as before. Where am I? What am I doing? The three questions were asked, but two questions in a row that seemed strange at the moment.

Of course, Xiaole didn't answer the question that Hua Kejing blurted out, but reminded him repeatedly: "It's time for you to wake up...... It's time for you to wake up. ”

"Wake up......" Hua Ke's camera was painful and a little confused.

"You've just finished hibernation."

"Hibernate ...... Here it is...... The Forsaken? ”

"Yes, this is the Forsaken, welcome back."

Hua Kejing finally figured out the situation in front of him a little: "Thank you, I thought I was discussing the Jupiter project with you?" ”

"I know your dreams, you're questioning me." Xiaole replied.

"No way...... You used to be mysterious...... I don't know the truth...... But I always have a stomach full of questions. ”

"It's all gone."

"Yes, it's all over...... Kindness...... How many tens of thousands of years? ”

"100,000 years."

"Oh, 100,000 years ......"

……

I salute every friend who has been with me all the way, thank you for your support!
