Although Wei Feng wanted that black hole very much, under the current situation, he was lucky enough to be able to obtain the rest of the instruments, and Wei Feng really didn't dare to ask for too much.

However, after coming to the conclusion that there was a miniature black hole in it, Wei Feng remembered some of the rest. That was something that happened hundreds of years ago, and only a small percentage of people know about it.

With the passage of time and the strict secrecy of government agencies, the details and truth of that incident have long since been lost to the dust of history. Wei Feng only heard some news from hearsay.

Legend has it that hundreds of years ago, human civilization once encountered an extremely serious crisis, there was a Lobachevsky space wrapped the space where the earth is located, if you don't find a way to cut off the connection between the earth and Lobachevsky space, the earth will fall into the unknown universe with it. The end result, of course, is that human civilization has solved this crisis, but the solution to the crisis Wei Feng has heard several different versions.

Some say that with the joint efforts of tens of thousands of scientists in the Ministry of Scientific Research, the space was blocked by the method of high-yield hydrogen bomb explosion, some say that a mysterious person corrected a data in the plan at a critical moment, made a modification to the original blocking plan, and finally saved the earth, and some say that it is ...... Human civilization finally relied on the massive amount of energy released by a dying miniature black hole to finally achieve the goal of blocking space.

History has been too long, and it is impossible for Wei Feng to restore the truth of what happened hundreds of years ago. Wei Feng can only feel the thrill and grandeur of that era through these broken fragments. Originally, this matter could only be a topic of conversation after Wei Feng's tea. But now. This past has been reminded again.

"If there really is a miniature black hole here...... So. Hundreds of years ago, human civilization finally relied on another miniature black hole to solve the scourge of the stars, and this is entirely possible...... So I might as well assume that if human civilization really had a miniature black hole in the first place, where did that black hole come from? It is impossible for human civilization to create its own, because even now, we do not have the ability to create miniature black holes. ”

"If you speculate like that, things get a lot more interesting. Quite possibly. The original miniature black hole was also obtained from the ruins of a similar unknown civilization, so to speak...... Hasn't human civilization known about the existence of an unknown extraterrestrial civilization for a long time? ”

"Hmm...... Some time ago, I reported to the Earth side that I had found a fragment of the creation of an unknown civilization, and at that time I was surprised by the calm reaction of the Earth side, if they had known about the existence of an unknown alien civilization, then this reaction could have been reasonably explained. ”

Wei Feng thought thoughtfully, the more he analyzed, the more he felt that his reasoning was very reasonable. But then, Wei Feng's heart moved again. Wei Feng thought of another question.

"How much does the Earth know about the existence of this alien civilization? How much information do they have? Did they anticipate that I might encounter an unknown alien civilization on this expedition? If they had anticipated this, why didn't they tell me? ”

In fact, these problems are likely to be overthought by Wei Feng, and it is very likely that the actual situation is not so complicated at all. It may be that the government simply doesn't have much information about extraterrestrial civilizations. It is also possible that the government did not expect Wei Feng to encounter the creation of an unknown alien civilization, or it may be that the government only wanted to keep it secret. I don't think there's any need to explain all this to Wei Feng. In short, there are so many possibilities that Wei Feng is completely unsure of which one is actually in reality.

But...... Man is such a strange animal. If a thought pops up in the mind, as long as it has the slightest possibility, it will take root in the mind and begin to spread uncontrollably.

This thought continued to spread, and finally Wei Feng had such an idea in his heart: "About my interstellar voyage...... Is it really as simple as an interstellar voyage? Is there any secret behind this that I don't know, or is it ...... What other purposes exist? If there was any other purpose, what would it be? Or is there something or an event in the South Gate II system that requires me to carry out certain tasks, and for some reason it was hidden from me in the first place? ”

"If there really is a rest of the purpose, and they don't tell me clearly in advance, then the only way to ensure that that end is achieved is to fall on the intelligent program of Yeluo. Because I was so far away from Earth, they didn't have the ability to control me at all. Could it be ...... Is it possible that Ye Luo also deliberately deceived me for some purpose? ”

From this speculation of a miniature black hole, as well as some rumors that have been circulating for hundreds of years, Wei Feng thought of many, many things. It can be said that there is no evidence to prove any of these incidents, but similarly, Wei Feng has no evidence to falsify them. Wei Feng only vaguely sensed that something was wrong. As for whether these things are wrong because I think too much or if they are true, we can only wait for time to finally verify.

Wei Feng shook his head vigorously, reluctantly throwing out the chaotic thoughts in his heart. It was also at this time that Ye Luo's voice reached Wei Feng's ears: "Captain, what are you going to do next?" ”

Wei Feng replied, "Now the distance between us and that alien device is too far, and the communication delay is too long, I don't have enough time to carry out the task of capturing it, I can only leave this task to you to carry out." So, I'll modify a powered repair device, and then you program it to go to the alien device on its own, and realistically choose the solution to dismantle the mass core. In the process, you'll have to transfer the specific orbital parameters to the four thrusters, which will move closer to the ship on their own after being disassembled. ”

"One thing to warn you of, Captain." Ye Luo said calmly, "After a while, because the distance is too long, we will lose the signal communication with those four thrusters. This means that we can no longer get any information about that extraterrestrial device. Whether the program we have set will be carried out successfully in the end, and whether it will eventually come closer to us as it was intended, everything is unknown. ”

"Is there any other way we can do it?" Wei Feng shrugged his shoulders a little helplessly, "This is our last hope." ”

"Well, Captain, there's one more thing to tell you, even in the most optimistic scenario, it would take at least two hundred years for those four thrusters to propel the alien device to our ship. In those 200 years, we have no choice but to wait. Even if the mission ultimately fails, it's impossible to know why the mission failed. Where it is, and what state it is in, we don't know. ”

"I'm mentally prepared." Wei Feng said, "This is a very slim thing with a very slim chance of success. Don't say more, Ye Luo, you start editing the program, I'll go and repair the instrument. ”

"Okay captain."

It took Weifeng three days to transform this maintenance instrument. Three days later, Ye Luo sent this weird-looking guy out again. It is equipped with a number of repair and removal tools, and its enclosure stores a number of repair plans. Before it reaches the alien device, Leaffall will lose contact with it. After losing contact, all of its actions will be determined by a pre-stored program.

Although Ye Luo has imagined as many contingencies as possible and formulated a plan to deal with them, only God knows if the situation encountered by this maintenance instrument in reality was pre-envised. Sending this repair instrument was just the last effort Wei Feng made, and the outcome was entirely up to luck.

Wei Feng went into hibernation again, then woke up again, and then fell asleep again...... Time passed quietly in this constant awakening and sleep. And what the final result of that alien device was, Wei Feng still didn't know.

Every time Wei Feng woke up, he would receive many announcements from the Time Traveler team, and Wei Feng would reply to these letters in great detail and in every case. The purpose of this is, on the one hand, to report safety to the earth, and on the other hand, only by maintaining such an exchange of letters, Wei Feng will not feel like an orphan without a hometown.

But letters from the Time Traveler team are always no good news. The situation of human civilization seems to be getting worse and worse. After waking up for the tenth time, that is, more than a hundred years after leaving Earth, and when Wei Feng had sailed almost a light year away, Wei Feng received two worst news from the Time Traveler team.

The first news is that the theory that the upper speed of conventional propulsion is 4,500 kilometers per second has been officially confirmed. This means that if the science and technology of human civilization do not make another leap forward, human civilization will never be able to break through this speed with universal technology with large-scale application potential.

The second news is that Jupiter and Saturn, the two most important resource planets, have reached their upper limit on energy production, and without the birth of more advanced technologies, their energy production will not be able to increase again.

But Wei Feng knows that the growth of the population of human civilization will not stop because of these things. (To be continued......)
