Chapter 158: Secrets (continued)

"It was precisely because of the discovery of such a substance that the Atlanteans fell into a state of frenzied exploration, digging everywhere. This greatly increases their strength and, at the same time, their lifespan is greatly extended. But this brings another series of problems. The first is the living space, in the past few hundred years, the population of Atlantis has grown explosively, and a small continent can no longer accommodate it, so they began to wage wars against other continents, thus bringing great disasters to other peoples who have not yet been fully civilized; In addition, the source energy of a planet is always limited, and when the source energy of the earth is exhausted, they find themselves in a dilemma, because they have formed an over-dependence on this energy, without this energy, it is difficult for them to maintain a high level of development, and even their own survival will become a great problem; But the source energy that can be developed on the earth is less than one in a hundred, and it is buried deep in the depths of the earth, and under the conditions at that time, there is no way to excavate it! Recognizing this danger, the continent of Atlantis soon fell into chaos and war, in order to compete for the pitiful source energy resources. This war was protracted, all kinds of advanced killing weapons were developed one after another, and the entire Atlantis continent can be described as bloody and bloody, with constant gunsmoke and rapid population decline, and by the end of the war, the original population of hundreds of millions was only more than one million! Fortunately, the war was confined to the continent of Atlantis, and did not affect the slowly developing civilizations of other continents. ”

For this period of earth secrets that human beings had never understood, Lin Feng was fascinated by it, and was completely immersed in the once glorious, once bloody and cruel history.

The life-like energy body continued.

"After the war, the Atlanteans learned from the pain and decided to gather the strength of the whole continent to study the way to survive. Later, a scientist proposed that since the earth could no longer support their continued existence and development, they would explore space in the hope of discovering planets with source energy, and then immigrate en masse. During this period, they successfully developed a large interstellar migration spacecraft, and their space theory and technology have also been greatly developed. But after all preparations were made, there was no progress in the exploration of the source energy planet. The crisis is imminent, and the Atlanteans have finally decided to take a desperate gamble and use the remaining source energy reserves to open the interstellar gate and embark on a one-way voyage with no fixed goal! ”

"Stargate? What is that? Lin Feng's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly asked.

"It's a space technology developed by the Atlanteans. Using an extremely large amount of energy, it is excited in an instant, breaking through the barriers of space and forming a passage to the boundless interstellar. The energy required to carry out such an excitation and maintain the long-term stability of this channel is very terrifying, figuratively speaking, all the fossil energy formed by the earth over hundreds of millions of years is only enough to carry out it once! ”

Hearing this, Lin Feng shuddered, this ...... It's a waste. For thousands of years, human beings have gone from barbarism to civilization, from backward to advanced, from agricultural civilization to interstellar civilization, and it can be said that they have largely relied on fossil energy left over from the long evolutionary history of the earth. In order to compete for these precious strategic resources, human beings are fighting for life and death, and these are only enough for others to waste once.

So, after nearly 100 years of preparation, the Atlanteans finally succeeded in achieving such a spaceflight in the past! All 1.2 million Atlanteans flew away from Earth in a spaceship. Before leaving, they destroyed all traces that could prove that they once existed, and of course, consumed 99.9% of the earth's source energy! It is precisely because of this that for tens of thousands of years, the development of human civilization on the earth has been extremely slow, so that for tens of thousands of years, you have not been able to achieve the goal of going out of the earth and into the universe! ”

Hearing this, Lin Feng was speechless for a moment. This Atlantean is a man. It is no wonder that although there is a lot of life on Earth, even human beings can only develop slowly in a staggering way, and it takes a lot of effort to get to the nearest moon. If they had been able to leave that little more source energy behind, the current situation of humanity might have been different.

"Don't blame them. If there is no source energy, the continent of Atlantis may not be destroyed, and they may still be living happily on Earth. You tell me? The life-like energy body seemed to see Lin Feng's dissatisfaction, and explained with a smile.

"You have a point. And then? ”

"Since this was an unprecedented and hasty interstellar voyage, there was no experience to follow. As a result, the result is far from what one would expect. Because the energy excited at one time is too large, the channel formed actually reaches the edge of the galaxy, that is, this voyage, Atlantis crossed a distance of more than 100,000 light years. And the time spent in the meantime is only more than ten years! ”

"You mean...... You're saying that through the Stargate, the speed of the spaceship can reach 10,000 times the speed of light!? Lin Feng felt that his brain was no longer enough. Everything he saw and heard today shocked him inexplicably. It can be said that in his life, he may not encounter such a shocking thing as today.

"That's right! In fact, it can also be said that the interstellar gate has greatly shortened the distance in space. However, after arriving at that new star field, the Atlanteans found that the imagination was plump, but the reality was skinny. The star field they arrived in was a barren place, with almost no life planets, and even if there were, their life was still very low-level after hundreds of millions of years of evolution. This shows that the source energy contained in such a planet is very small, and it will not actually help you get out of the crisis. ”

For more than a thousand years, the Atlanteans had to wander around in that vast starry sky. Due to the limitation of the resource reserves in the spaceship and the long-term consumption, they did not dare to reproduce in large numbers, so that their population was constantly decreasing, almost to the point of extinction. Fortunately, after thousands of years of wandering, they finally found what they were looking for. It was a very young planet, so young that its source energy was basically not consumed, and life on the planet was in its most primitive single-celled stage. It's incredibly exciting. Although the environment is very harsh, it has little effect on the extremely strong Atlanteans. So, they landed on the planet without a hitch and began the great and long road of revival. ”

"They are lucky, but they have left such a mess for the human beings on the earth, making our development difficult!" Lin Feng said indignantly, his tone was not without sourness.
