Chapter 344: The Road Ahead
"This is our human race..."Cao Chuan pointed to the color of the digital galaxy representing human beings, and did not care about the numbers on it, such as the East Galaxy Company has a population of 600 million and a GDP of 5 million, a population of 16 billion of all human beings, and signs of activity of as many as 35 star systems, etc., which are actually meaningless.
"And this is the King of the Giantmouth's... Most of the star systems on the Deep Space Road, created by the unknown, have unknown existences, and the estimated number of stars that meet the conditions is 2,000. ”
In comparison, the number of star systems under control is less than 1/10 of this unknown group, and from now on, there may be an unprecedented brutal war in 30 years, and there are deep-diving mothers 6,000 light-years away who may be watching them all the time.
"Sure enough... The situation is quite bad! Several Lori frowned, "Even the existence of aliens that we just confirmed, which may be unknown enemies, has been denied, does it mean that humans have to fight alone?" ”
"That's right, the only thing that can be celebrated is that in the universe that has escaped the path of deep space, the unknown signs of activity are temporarily 0, which means that it has to reach out 1,000 light years before it is possible to encounter other unknown communities."
"Going somewhere else? What are the benefits? The path of deep space is so rich that people are really unwilling to give it up, and we would rather continue to fight the King of the Giantmouth. ”
"So, now is the time to decide the future, the future of mankind..."Cao Chuan thought about how they would meet such a fate, in short, he was to explain the situation to a few loli, and definitely not to seek their advice. Decide what he can do himself.
"Is there no other way? For example, if we create a star-destroying weapon and directly destroy all the planets in the second half of the deep space road, we can win at least 100 light-years of strategic depth, even if it is unknown that it will take 100 years to rely on the royal court, we will be much safer. ”
"I remember that in some novels, in order to prevent the invasion of the silicon-based empire, the carbon-based federation had to establish a 500-year-wide isolation zone in the middle of the galactic spiral arm to destroy most of the stars in the isolation zone to stop the stellar frog jumping of the silicon-based empire."
"A novel is a novel... If we really have the technology to create a Star Destroyer weapon, we can do it, and unless we don't know how to fight it at a huge cost, it will definitely make it difficult for them to retreat... The problem is, Nana, we don't have a star-destroying weapon, not even a 50-million-ton Dawnhammer is not enough to destroy the existence of a planet. ”
"The hosts... Doesn't it tell us how far we are from the tech tree of the Star Destroyer weapon? ”
"Theoretically, it's still so much worse..."Cao Chuan stroked a number, that represents 500 years, and it is the time to simply climb the weapon technology tree, "Besides, with such an unbalanced development of the technology tree, in case the unknown is alarmed, aren't you afraid of being counter-killed in an instant?" ”
It was Nana's turn to laugh, but she wouldn't admit defeat easily, "Indeed, but those immortal beings probably don't have time to pay attention to us... And why be afraid, as long as there is a master, I believe that no matter what difficulties can be solved. ”
"You really have confidence in me..."Cao Chuan was a little helpless in the face of a few loli, he said: "I'm just wondering, can we explore a territory in a more distant star system, away from the unknown, we can have an extra hundred years to develop, and we can become our new second base." As for the deep space road here, it will still develop and war, but as long as we keep the rhythm of the unknown and have a new second base, at least it won't make people feel panicked, because we still have the last hope, right? ”
"The master's idea is quite interesting, can I apply to build the second base version 2.0 version, after all, I have experience in building the second base version 1.0." Nana raised her hand solemnly.
Cao Chuan looked at the other loli, but he didn't look like he wanted to compete, and nodded slightly: "I basically agree, but, considering that we have to transfer a lot of people over, this is definitely a long project, and now, we don't even know a little bit of information, and we don't know where the second base will be built." ”
Cao Chuan clicked on the map of the Milky Way, "The ideal alternative development site is in the Large Magellanic Galaxy, far enough away from us, 160,000 light-years, with 20 billion planets for exploration... It's a pity that relying on the third-generation spaceship used to be a long journey in 10,000 years, at least the fourth-generation spaceship will be possible..."
"It is more reasonable to go to the Centaur Cantilever or the Immortal Cantilever Arm, the voyage will be shortened to 5,000 light years, if we can find a suitable route, it will be easier, and quickly open a new sub-base, so that the unknown will not be so easy to hit us."
"But what about Deep Space Path?"
"As I said before, you can do whatever you have to do..."Cao Chuan replied, "I can't guarantee that the human race can withstand the full force of the King of the Great Mouth, but I can guarantee that the human race has the means to inflict heavy damage on the unknown." ”
"Until then, we have to develop further, form a few more fleets, find a way to expand the asteroid defense line, and find a way to cut off the deep space road. Belch... Cutting off the path to deep space is a good idea, and it means a lot. ”
"Through the Star Destroyer weapon?"
"No, cutting off the path to deep space isn't just by relying on Star Destroyer weapons... If there is a way to dispel the tide of dark energy, it is actually possible... And I think the tech tree would be a little simpler. ”
Cao Chuan muttered, if he did this, the situation would not be so out of control, and he would be able to develop a little more steadily. (To be continued.) )
