At this moment, all the doubts in Wei Feng's heart were answered. Wei Feng knew why the Earth didn't send him any more messages when he woke up the first two times, and he also knew what was going on in the solar system.

Human civilization has been divided, divided into two alliances, the outer solar system and the inner solar system. One side has the strongest scientific and technological strength and heavy industry and agricultural base, and the other side has the largest population and the most resources.

The theory of "dead knots" has been most perfectly interpreted in human civilization. At a time when human civilization has developed to the point where it is urgent to seek resources and planets from external galaxies, the technology of human civilization has trapped human civilization in the solar system. With more and more people and more energy needs, one solar system can no longer meet the needs of human civilization.

The development of history always has its own internal laws. The law of history tells Wei Feng that when resources enter a state of scarcity, if resources cannot be obtained from the outside, then human beings will seek to obtain resources from within. Whereas...... What are the means of sourcing resources from within? There is only war.

This is the general trend of history, and it is not disturbed by the will of an individual or a group. So it's a dead knot, a dead knot that can't be untied.

Wei Feng's body was already trembling uncontrollably. Wei Feng closed his eyes, leaned back on the chair and took a deep breath before calming down for a long time. Then Wei Feng came to the porthole and looked at the star in the distance that still had the brightest of all the stars.

Although it is now a distance of one six light-years from the Sun, the Sun is still the brightest. It hangs far away in the dark and deep universe, quietly releasing its own light. It looks mysterious and distant. Tranquil and elegant.

That's Wei Feng's hometown. It is also home to hundreds of billions of human beings. Wei Feng, who was standing here, couldn't detect any other features other than this constantly flickering point of light, but Wei Feng knew that there must be a lot of things going on there.

Ye Luo received this letter three years ago. Counting the time spent on the communication delay, Chu Hai had already sent this letter at least four and a half years ago. Whereas...... How much will happen in four and a half years?

Has the war begun? What happened to human civilization? What about Chu Hai? What about the Time Traveler team?

Wei Feng had a lot of worries in his heart, but Wei Feng couldn't have known the answers to these questions. Wei Feng knows. The connection between itself and the earth has been completely severed, and without those eight large antennas, it is impossible for the earth to send signals that can be received by itself, and the signals sent by itself can no longer be received by the earth.

The Earth side certainly has the ability to rebuild the antenna, but in the face of the impending war, who will spend the energy and resources to do this? Inner Solar System Alliance? Outer Solar System Alliance?

War buries many things. Wei Feng is almost certain that as the witnesses of the Lonely Island Project gradually grow old and die, and as the electronic devices that store a lot of data are destroyed, he will be forgotten by everyone. No one knows that hundreds of years ago, there was a person who embarked on a long journey that lasted for thousands of years alone in the spaceship Xinghai, and no one would know. The star on the edge of the sky also has its own footprints.

Wei Feng felt as if his heart had been torn apart. This pain is not only for one's own loneliness and forgetfulness, but also for the bleak future that human civilization is about to face. Maybe...... When I finally crossed the millennium and returned to the solar system. You will be greeted by a ruin, perhaps you will be the last human in this universe, or you will encounter an accident on your journey and be buried in the lonely and deep universe, never to be remembered.

Wei Feng finally couldn't control it anymore, so Wei Feng squatted on the ground, held his head with his arms, and cried silently.

Wei Feng felt that all the loneliness and fear he had endured was meaningless. Who cares about themselves? Who will remember themselves? The solar system is its own root and its hometown, and without it, there would be no human civilization...... Who are you?

Ye Luo was very silent at this time. It seems that it also understands Wei Feng's inner feelings at this moment. So it didn't bother Wei Feng, but just let Wei Feng cry there quietly.

After a long time, Wei Feng wiped away his tears and stood up, and then called: "Ye Luo." ”

"Captain, I'm here, what do you command?"

Wei Feng was silent for a moment, and then said, "You say...... What do we do now? Human civilization has split into the Inner Solar System Alliance and the Outer Solar System Alliance, the Island Project has been terminated, and our existence will be forgotten by all. Is there a solution to this situation stored in your database? ”

"I'll be honest with you, Captain, I do have some restrictions in my internal procedures, including that if you have the idea of retreating and want to maneuver the ship back, I can refuse to carry out the mission you have submitted, so as to ensure the smooth execution of the Isolated Island Project. But now, as you said, human civilization has been divided, the island project has been stopped, then those restrictions have failed. What you do in the future depends on your arrangements. ”

Ye Luo's words are very clear. Wei Feng knew that even if he gave the order to let the spacecraft return at this moment, Ye Luo would carry out his orders.

But...... Is there any point in returning home at this moment? Even if he returns at this moment, it will take nearly two hundred years for Wei Feng to return to the solar system, and even if Wei Feng is anxious in his heart, this time will not be shortened. At the same time, even if Wei Feng can return to the earth at this moment, what is the point? The war will not end with the arrival of Wei Feng.

At this moment, Wei Feng really wants to return to the earth, even if the solar system is in the middle of a war at this moment. Because Wei Feng knows that death is the unchangeable fate of every living being, and he will die one day, in this deep cosmic space, there seems to be no essential difference between dying after a thousand years and dying after a hundred years. Whereas...... A thousand years from now, the universe will probably have no trace of human civilization.

"Will I return to Earth and die with my kind, or will I die alone after a thousand years of drifting?"

This is a difficult multiple-choice question. Even though Wei Feng had undergone more than 20 years of professional training before setting off, and had been tempered by more than 100 years of lonely sailing, when facing this problem at this moment, Wei Feng still felt a blank from the bottom of his heart.

Faced with this problem, Wei Feng didn't know how to choose. So Wei Feng asked, "Ye Luo, do you want to go back to Earth, or do you want to continue this long journey with me?" ”

Ye Luo replied: "I am an intelligent program, and I have no preferences based on personal emotions. My answer to this question is, I don't care. You can do whatever you want. ”

"I want to think about it." Wei Feng replied.

"Okay, dinner is ready for you, won't you eat dinner first?"

"Nope." Wei Feng waved his hand and walked to his lounge, "Don't disturb me. ”

Wei Feng laid himself on the bed, and then quietly looked at the ceiling with his eyes open. Wei Feng's thoughts were very chaotic, so chaotic that he couldn't sort out a clue at all.

Sailing to South Gate 2 or not going to South Gate 2 really doesn't make sense now, and even whether Wei Feng chooses to return to Earth is meaningless. At this moment, Wei Feng has an infinite number of directions to choose, and no matter which one Wei Feng chooses, no one will interfere with Wei Feng.

Wei Feng has complete autonomy, but because of this, Wei Feng is even more confused. The second voyage of the South Gate is the spiritual pillar that supports Wei Feng, and it is it that supports Wei Feng through this long lonely journey, and at this moment, this pillar suddenly collapsed. From this moment on, no one will care what Wei Feng does or thinks, even if Wei Feng dies, no one will care.

Wei Feng was thinking about something wildly, and his head was like a mess. But in the midst of this chaos, a pair of eyes quietly emerged, and they became brighter and brighter.

Those eyes belonged to Chu Hai, and they belonged to everyone in the Time Traveler team. Wei Feng still remembered the eager eyes they had when they left Earth, the expectations they had for themselves, the instructions given to him by the long-dead Führer Keller, and the words that the Führer had told him when he set off.

"No matter where you are, the whole solar system will always have your back."

In between, one generation passed away quietly, and a new one grew up and became the mainstream of society. Wei Feng knew that he did not belong to this era, he had always belonged to the era more than a hundred years ago. In that era, tens of millions of researchers and engineers dedicated their energy to the island project for decades, and many more people were watching them eagerly, hoping that they could take a big step forward for the entire human civilization.

"So...... Let this journey continue. Wei Feng thought silently, "I am on this mission for my time, although almost all of them in that era are dead, although at this moment...... Even the entire human civilization may fall into extinction, but the mission I have undertaken is still unshirkable. ”

"Just like Chu Hai said...... I also don't want human civilization to take a step on this interstellar voyage until it ends......" (To be continued......
