On the outskirts of the "hopeful" galaxy, far from the Milky Way, there is a lone star. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

The reason why she is lonely is that it is a red dwarf star far away from the surrounding star systems. Even the closest star system to Hope is 31 light-years away.

Although she is said to be the same as Stellar Hope, they both belong to the star, but there is a big gap between the two. First of all, she is indeed pitifully small, with less than 8% of the mass of the star and only 1/100,000 of the former.

Moreover, it is a very barren star system, with only a small rocky planet and another dwarf planet inside.

......

Not long ago, the Expedition Fleet of Ancient Civilization Relics from the Federation of Hope had just escaped the pursuit of the Alrant Federation Starfleet, passing by the red dwarf.

"This is the Red Dwarf, the Lost Lands." Vice Captain Usopp introduced everyone meaningfully.

Martial law has ended, and the members of the Shimmer Expedition are finally free to enter and leave the apartment.

At this time, they were eating in a canteen in the common area of the battleship. Although the food is as bad as ever, the environment of the restaurant is good.

Through the huge porthole of the restaurant, everyone can barely see the cosmic starry sky outside the window. The reason why I can't see it is because this is not a special observation deck, and the distorted picture of high-speed flight has not been corrected or restored, so everyone can only barely see the meaning, which is better than nothing.

"Lost Lands ......" Compared to others, Nalan Yu heard this name for the first time, "It's the first time I've heard of the name of a certain star being so poetic. ”

"The Lost Stars, although they are close neighbors of the Hope Star System, have very different pasts." Compared with other members of the interstellar expedition team, Vice Captain Usopp was of course more knowledgeable, and even knew some stories about the Lost Lands of the stars, and everyone was immediately attracted and listened to with great interest.

"At the height of ancient civilizations, this red dwarf was not yet called the Lost Land. She is a satellite system of the Hope Star System, and the ancient civilization has connected her with the surrounding star systems through special scientific means, making it an important space fortress, where many spaceships will stop for a little reorganization, and then go through tunnels to other star systems farther away. ”

"What do you mean, this land of hope was once a prosperous place in the ancient civilized world?" After Nalan Yu drank the last sip of soup, he asked with interest.

"Not bad." Vice Captain Usopp had already opened the conversation, and simply pushed the unpalatable food in front of him forward, and continued to introduce it to everyone, "However, the fate of this space hub was completely changed by the cosmic cataclysm. An earth-shattering cosmic catastrophe swept across the entire star field, and the special technological means that were originally used to connect the various star systems were also destroyed. It gradually becomes an isolated star system. ”

"If it was once such an important transportation hub, why hasn't it been renovated and restored to its former glory?" Nalandar asked, taking advantage of the fact that he had just swallowed a piece of meat.

"After the cataclysm, the whole world was devastated, and there was speculation that in the initial post-disaster period, if all the remaining forces were united, it might be possible to gradually repair this broken world. It's a pity that because the forces of all parties are scattered everywhere and the degree of damage is uneven, in order to survive, they have long been unable to take care of each other. Later, a protracted and endless war for resources began to break out, causing all hope to be completely lost. ”

"It's a pity, if someone or some force could have turned the tide and decided the world in one fell swoop, the advanced science and technology of ancient civilizations would not have gradually withered to today's fields in the midst of natural and man-made disasters."

Speaking of this, Vice Captain Usopp couldn't help but sigh regretfully.

"Turn the tide and set the ......world in one fell swoop" Nalan Yu heard this, and his heart trembled inexplicably.

"Why, then, hasn't the Hope Federal Government included the Lost Lands of Stars in its territory? After all, this is the closest to the Hope Star System. At this time, Zhang Kunlong also finished eating, and he also raised his own questions.

"Joke, you can ask such a qualityless question. Without the ability of interstellar navigation, it is a problem to go to such a place where birds don't, not to mention pioneering construction, and survival. ”

Thomas, the core member, has finally recovered his former arrogance in the past few days, maybe he has figured it out, anyway, he has flown so far away, and it is too late to regret it, so it is better to hold the dead pig and not be afraid of boiling water.

"Thomas, you're in a good mood today!" Brother Long didn't particularly care about him, just smiled with a confused face, and tactfully dug into his pain.

"You!" In front of everyone, Thomas didn't have a good seizure, but he just glanced at Brother Long.

"Thomas is right, as early as thousands of years ago, after the major powers looted this place one after another, they completely abandoned this red dwarf galaxy!" Vice-captain Usopp said.

"That's why this place is called the Lost Land?" Nalandar asked rhetorically.

"Yes, that's exactly how it should be." Deputy Captain Usopp nodded and continued to add, "Of course, these are all old stories that have been handed down, after all, the history of ancient civilizations has been broken for a long time, and many things have been impossible to verify for a long time. ”

"Vice-Captain, the Federation's Institute of Ancient Civilization History should know more details, right?" Nalan Yu asked after a moment of thought.

"The Federation's Institute of the History of Ancient Civilizations?" Deputy Captain Usopp was stunned, "Maybe, if you don't mention this organization, I can't even remember." Speaking of which, after so many years, whether it is Starfleet or many interstellar expeditions, there is no shortage of ancient civilization materials unearthed. But I have never heard of any results in their research, and it is simply unworthy of the name, and it is in vain! ”

"Is it really unworthy of the name, in vain?" Nalan Yu frowned slightly, thinking secretly in his heart.

"Could it be that the results of their research have not been released to the world?" Brother Long, who was on the side, suddenly had an IQ on the line, and he blurted out a loud question.

"Be quiet!!" Vice Captain Usopp glared at him, then reprimanded him in a low voice, "We're in the Starfleet warships now, do we want to go to prison for talking nonsense?" ”

The crowd was stunned.

It turned out that Vice Captain Usopp also had doubts in his heart, but he was more sophisticated and didn't want to say it.

......

The Milky Way, the Sunrise Galaxy, the planet Gaia, the residence of the legendary leader on the island in the middle of the lake.

In the middle of the night, the legendary leader's guard captain, Lieutenant General Hallelujah, the former deputy military commander of the expeditionary force, passed through several guards and came to a bedroom in a secluded place.

"General!"

The soldiers on guard saluted and greeted him because they were holding weapons and equipment.

"Good work!"

Hallalujah nodded to the soldiers.

"Where is the duty!" The soldiers replied.

"Has the leader rested?"

It was early in the morning, and Hallelujah felt that his question was a bit out of place.

"The leader has rested."

"I think it should be like this, during this time, the leader is almost spent in the super laboratory, and it is rare to rest early."

Thinking of this, Hallelujah hesitated a little, hesitating whether to wake up the leader at this time.

However, the news was very important about the progress of the rescue work of the lost fleet, and the leader had instructed him to report to him at any time if there was any relevant news.

"Forget it, let's wait a few more hours, it's getting bright......"

"Continue to be vigilant, and when the leader wakes up, notify me as soon as possible."

"Yes!"

Hallelujah caught a glimpse of the still dark night through the distant window, and finally made up his mind.

"Kala~"

Just as Harry turned to leave, there was a sound of doors opening behind him.

"Hallelujah! Are you looking for me? ”

It was the leader's voice coming from behind him.

"Yes, Leader, there is important progress in the rescue of the Lost Fleet!"

Hallelujah hurriedly turned around and replied as he saluted the leader with the soldiers.

"What's the progress, have you received a rescue signal?" The leader asked.

"Exactly! An hour ago, the Lyra high-latitude space detection radar in the Sunrise system received a remarkable faster-than-light signal. ”

"After the signal is deciphered, what is written, is there a translation?"

"Yes, look!"

Hallelujah took advantage of the situation and handed the leader the translation of the rescue signal that he had already prepared.

[The Dawn Sun System, we are a human fleet authorized by the high-level of the Expeditionary Force to participate in the Hidden Enemy Project of the Dark Energy Civilization. The mission has been successfully completed, but due to unknown circumstances, it is not possible to return to the black hole Cygnus X-1 through the dark civilization space tunnel. In order not to interfere with the implementation of the Hidden Ones project, we are not allowed to return to the vicinity of the solar system. After careful consideration, the only way to go to the Sunrise Galaxy is that there is still a glimmer of life. In the next time, we are about to enter a state of full hibernation, and life and death are uncertain, and I hope that the Sunrise Galaxy can send forces to rescue. The following is the route information of our fleet......]

"Sure enough!" Yuan Haochen quickly read the message in his hand, "Fortunately, we captured the signal in time, I hope everything is ....... in time."

"Major General Michelin has redeployed the rescue plan according to the latest situation at the first time!" Hallelujah added.

"What about the dark energy civilization?"

"An announcement has been issued, too!"

"Okay, send me the route calculation results!"

......

The sparse stars dotted the deep space of the universe, and in the eternal darkness, the occasional cold glimmer faintly shone on the surface of the cold battleship.

The desolate voice of the heart was unheard, and only after every year did the battleship quietly light up for a moment, sending out a message into the distance, like a lonely whisper, wailing for the long-sleeping people in the battleship.

There is no sad wind in the world, there is nowhere to chase the wind and rain, Xiao Xiao is gloomy and sad and kills. The starlight is the clothes, the cold is the wear, and I don't know when I can return to my hometown.

Years later, in the dark starry sky about 576 light-years away from the Sunrise Galaxy.

A spaceship with a largely intact appearance is drifting at extreme speed towards the Sunrise Galaxy by inertial flight.

Under the precise locking of the dark energy civilization, it gradually entered the field of vision of the human rescue fleet.

"General Michelin, target spotted ahead!"

"Is the target a human warship, how many of them, and what is the status?"

Major General Michelin's pupils lit up, and he asked with a stern expression.

"We have confirmed that it is the lost expeditionary warship, but there is only one, and the infrared detector can only detect extremely weak energy signals."

"There is only one, did the other two have an accident!?"

General Michelin was stunned, because everyone knew that there were a total of three expeditionary warships participating in the Hidden Ones program.

"The reason is unknown, and the condition of the only remaining battleship is not very optimistic, we estimate that the temperature inside the ship is basically below minus 100 degrees Celsius......"

Hearing this, everyone's hearts couldn't help but pinch up.

"Immediately adjust the flight attitude of the rescue fleet, fly synchronously with the target, and try to capture this battleship first!"

Now is not the time to worry, Major General Michelin immediately issued a rescue order.

In the next moment, more than a dozen spaceships shone brightly at the same time, flying towards the cold, lonely human expeditionary force warship that had been drifting alone for many years.

First of all, several powerful propulsion ships were glued to it, and they quickly and smoothly locked on the target battleship.

"Some areas of the battleship's hull were damaged, but they were basically intact and the air tightness was stable!" The rescuers who arrived first sent back a communication after a preliminary inspection.

"Prepare to slow down the target ship!"

At this distance, the Rear Admiral Michelin could see through the battleship's hull in a certain direction, and the inside was too messy. It's so chaotic that it's hard to figure out (the picture in the four-dimensional space is infinitely complex).

Although it is possible to carry out rescue work while remaining relatively stationary, in the high-speed flight state of four-dimensional space, various operations need to be extremely cautious, and the rescue work is far less safe than in three-dimensional space, so he decided to bring the battleship back to three-dimensional space first.

Five brilliant giant flames burst into flames, and the Lost Battleship began to slow down smoothly and was successfully brought back to three-dimensional space.

......

"General, after the inspection, you can enter the inside of the battleship."

The staff reports to Major General Michelin, who is wearing a spacesuit.

"Open the connecting hatch!"

"Hum~~"

After a shock, the battleship's access channel that had been sealed for many years was finally opened.

All rescuers held their breath and focused their eyes on the slowly emerging passage inside the battleship.

It was dark, there was no light, the air pressure was normal, but the temperature detection showed that it was -127.3 degrees Celsius!

"Prepare to install backup power!"

"Woo Woo Woo ~ "

After the sound of a gust of air rushing through, the gloomy interior of the battleship was finally lit up again.

Then, Major General Michelin stepped in as soon as possible......
