Chapter 18: Heroes Rise

The crowd of rallies quickly rushed to the governors, blocked by the blast queues. More people rushed towards the crowd and soon broke through the first line of queues, and the riot squad was prepared and quickly increased the queue.

"All members of the congregation, you have violated the provisions of Article 322 of the Law of the Home Star, please evacuate immediately. Otherwise, we will violently evict us. The captain of the anti-riot squad shouted to the crowd who feared they were about to lose control.

The crowd still did not stop breaking through the riot guards, and the shouts became stronger and stronger. Just when the surging crowd was about to break through the blockade.

"Implement quarantine." The anti-riot captain gives instructions to the team members.

The riot fighters quickly and neatly freed their right hands and threw them to the ground, and suddenly a transparent wall separated the angry crowd from the riot riot officers. The crowd at the front of the rally crashed into the wall with the crowd behind, but was quickly bounced back. This left the crowd helpless.

"At present, we have only implemented anti-riot quarantine measures, and have not yet used force, please evacuate quickly, otherwise we have the right to use force to drive away."

"Give us back reproductive rights, abolish hierarchies,......" The crowd at the rally was even more angry, unheeded by the warnings of the riot squads.

"Paralyzed eviction." Once again, the riot rioters were given orders.

I saw a number of riot fighters holding up a fountain pen and sweeping towards the crowd. The "water pen" shoots out a purple ray of light that passes through the wall, and the person who is hit can fall down and lose his or her mobility. Even so, the rally did not flinch, and they took out their defensive weapons and fired at the riot fighters, but their return fire was blocked by the wall......

It wasn't long before the crowd fell to the ground.

The super-large crowd in the city of Sazhen was also paralyzed.

By the time they are able to move, they have been restricted from freedom and have all been demoted by one level, while the eighth level will face longer restrictions on freedom.

A total of 124,927 people were restricted from their freedom. This is the largest arrest since entering the home interplanetary civilization. has a profound impact on the home planet society, which is officially divided.

Due to the violent oppression of the rulers, all rebellions turned into covert operations, and the power of resistance was not reduced by non-disclosure, but grew under the leadership of Captain Klaas, an organization of resistance with organization, goals, a program of action, and a reserve of force, and the ability to compete with the rulers.

Although the undercurrent is surging, the mother star gradually returns to its former calm under strong pressure.

Half a year later, Klaas applied to Cook to restart the career search program.

"For more than 10 years, the Space Boundary Exploration Organization has re-studied my previous boundary theory based on the exploration data you provided, and there will be multiple boundaries at the edge of the universe due to multiple vibrations. It's like the last time I was looking for a career. But we still don't know what the consequences will be if we break through the edge of the universe. So this exploration is still very risky. Cook said to Klaas.

"It's an honor that our work advances boundary theory, and we're one step closer to unraveling the boundaries of the universe. It is impossible to have returns that exceed expectations without risk? Please allow the Career Quest program to be re-opened. Klaas replied.

"The resumption of the Career Quest plan had been planned for a year earlier, but it was delayed because of the rally. The last quest lasted nearly 400 years, and this time it may be even longer. It will take time to fully demonstrate and allocate resources. I'm also looking forward to the relaunch of the Career Quest program.

Now you're ready to make a formal request to me and the space defense organization Srock. When everything is ready, I will start a new journey, and I believe it will be soon. After all, Slok has a good personal relationship with you, so he shouldn't embarrass you, right? Cook came up with an idea for Klaas.

"Of course not, he's my old boss. There's something I want to bother you. ”

"As long as it helps with the career search plan, it's easy to discuss." In fact, Cook was more anxious to find the boundaries of the universe than Klaas.

"On the last career search voyage, there was a young man who performed well, but because of a conflict with his teammates, he was demoted, and we needed this young man to control the spaceship." Klaas said.

"Well, I know what you mean, you're going to restore him to his rank so he can join the plan. Who is he and has he filed a complaint? Cook asked.

"His name is Du Qian, and he appealed for the fourth time more than a month ago."

"It's easy, just go back and apply." Cook said.

"Then you don't bother more, don't bother, and go back to prepare the application materials." After saying that, Klaas left the Technology Exploration Building, returned to the Career Seeking Base, and instructed his subordinates to prepare the application materials.

Two days later, Du Qian received the message that the appeal was successful, and as expected, Du Qian was not surprised and contacted Klaas through an encrypted channel. Klaas prepares him to carry out his career search once more.

After 15 days everything was ready. On the outskirts of the home planet Pengmo, a grand departure ceremony is being held.

More than 400 astronauts, led by Klaas, stood neatly in front of two huge crescent-shaped spacecraft, with Du Qian standing behind Klaas. It was the morning of a new day on the home planet, and the virtual sun was slanting on the faces of every confident astronaut. Opposite the astronauts were nearly 10,000 boron-based people who saw them off, although they could watch the ceremony from home via holographic video.

"Great homeplaneters are great because of these exploration heroes. We explore the edge of the universe and look forward to discovering another universe. Today I have the honor to witness the heroes go on the expedition, and I look forward to the day when I can enjoy the glory of the heroes with you. Cook gave a brief cheer on this unprecedented expedition.

Subsequently, more than 400 astronauts lined up to enter both spacecraft at once. Du Qian still followed Klaas into the first ship. After waiting for the warehouse, Klaas saluted the boron-based people who were seeing off on the ground by circumnavigating the field at a low altitude.

After the circumambulation, a black but flashing circular void slowly appeared in the sky of Pengmo City, and black was the true starry sky color of the parent star.

Since the parent star is flying towards Earth at a speed of 11,000 times faster than the speed of light, there is a faster-than-light deceleration device at the front of the parent star's motion that is large enough to cover the parent star to cope with the smaller mass obstacles in the forward path.

The faster-than-light reducer uses anti-gravity to drive a smaller obstacle in front of it to instantly detach itself from the orbit of the parent star, or to give the obstacle a collision with the reducer that will not cause a devastating impact, and the impact produces plasma fireworks, so flashes of light can often be seen at the entrance of the hole.

The two spacecraft paused for a moment, then exited the black hole, flew away from their home star at nearly the speed of light, and rushed to the nearest edge of the universe to start a second journey of discovery. And the pilot of the main control room of the first spacecraft was officially chosen by Klaas.
