Eleven years and seven months in the human calendar...... Yao Yuan looked out the window with a hint of sorrow, more than a year and six months have passed since he left the new earth, and in this more than one year and six months, according to the speed of one jump per day, the Hope and the three spaceships have jumped hundreds of times, and in these hundreds of jumps, they really haven't even seen a single hair, and the entire dark void, the closest planet locations are tens of thousands of light years away.

At the farthest point, scientists on Hope even suspected that Hope had jumped to at least tens of billions of light-years away from various river systems, or even farther away, because the evidence was that they found that Hope was only a billion light-years away from a quasar, and that was the biggest evidence.

In this way, hundreds of jumps have yielded nothing, although this is also the probability of random jumps, but after experiencing the beautiful environment of the new earth, such a statement is really depressing.

Today is the day after another jump, and all the relevant personnel are busy, first of all, naturally go to the other three spacecraft to inspect and maintain personnel, and secondly, to observe, draw star maps, etc., which will take a whole day.

In addition, because the three spaceships of the Guardian Class One and the Observer are newly built, no one knows whether it is safe or not, you must know that the jump is irreversible once it starts, and it is completely random, if the three spaceships break away from the mothership, it will really be completely finished, in this dangerous and cold universe, it is really better to commit suicide.

Because of this, all the personnel are still on the Hope, and after each jump, they go to the three ships for overhaul and maintenance, of course, this provides a lot of jobs, no way, since leaving the New Earth, the Hope has returned to internal job competition, and the human coin, which had begun to gradually depreciate before, has once again regained its strength, of course, this in itself is not something to be proud of or happy about.

On the other hand, although after leaving the New Earth, everyone was holding back a fire in their hearts, and even recorded it in the history of the Hope in a sad manner, after a year and a half, many people are still gradually despairing.

It's completely different from when you left Earth, when there was no hope, this was the only way out, the only hope, and no one thought that they might be able to find a new home planet in their lifetime, so since they didn't get it, it didn't matter if they lost it, it was an attitude that didn't matter, and life went on, and everyone wouldn't continue to be depressed.

It's just that the current situation is different, I have got a new home planet, I have found a new life that I can see, can confirm, and experience, but the final result is this, which is something that no one can bear, and because I have gotten it, it is even more painful to lose it again, so that while holding back the fire in my heart, many people are also depressed, because they all know that in their lives, even if they find a new home planet, it is estimated that they will not be able to live there, maybe it will be the case for thousands of years in the future…… Yao Yuan saw this situation in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, but he was also helpless, because this was not something that he could change by saying anything, unless something happened that could divert their attention, it was impossible to change it, this was a problem in mental management, and it was the most difficult problem to change.

That's what Yao Yuan is worried about, if he continues like this, sooner or later there will be a big problem, but who the knows that when he jumps to a special object or star, it will be years or even decades later, according to the probability, even if he can't jump to a valid target 100 million times, this is very likely, so Yao Yuan is really upset.

Just when Yao Yuan was still standing by the window of the aisle and looking into the void of the universe, thinking about the solution, suddenly a series of footsteps came from behind him, Yao Yuan hurriedly turned around, and saw a group of staff members rushing over, he hurriedly took the lead in asking, "What's wrong?" What happened? What happened to Guard Class One and Number Two? Or is there something wrong with the Observer? ”

The staff at the head was full of excitement, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or panicked, he hurriedly said: "No, captain, it's a signal!" We have received a strange set of signals, after the initial cracking of the central computer, most likely the signals of an alien civilization! ”

Yao Yuan suddenly chuckled in his heart, and didn't say anything more, and immediately accompanied these staff members to the monitoring room, where there were already staff waiting, and immediately told Yao Yuan the details.

It turns out that after this jump in place, each working group and all the personnel began to get busy, and the task as the monitoring room is the most important, basically all external information is obtained from here, and it is also an important place for feedback to the rest of the departments from here, which can be said to be the busiest department of the Quanhope.

After today's jump, there are naturally many people busy in the monitoring center, and one of the teams inadvertently found a very strange set of signals in the displayed electronic signals, and then these signals were naturally handed over to experts for analysis, and the analysis result is that this group of signals is very likely not to be a signal sent by a star like a pulsar, this is a set of complex, logical and large information signals, it is likely to ...... It's a sign left behind by an alien civilization!

The signal itself is in the state of electromagnetic waves to spread into space, and the Hope happened to intercept one of the pieces of information, but because of the language barrier, or basically no communication and relationship with the extraterrestrial civilization, this signal cannot be cracked at all, the so-called preliminary cracking, in fact, is just a signal with logic and information, and it is completely impossible to analyze its content.

When Yao Yuan arrived, the staff was trying to convert this set of signals into audio signals, or video signals, but it was very difficult, this set of signals itself carried an incomprehensible quantum encryption lock, obviously a part of the signal had been cracked, but with the random change of the password, the signal was changed again, just this strange electronic signal quantum encryption lock, has made the relevant people excited, not to mention some other content in the signal.

Yao Yuan was also a little excited after knowing all this, but after the excitement, he had a deeper worry, that is, where did this set of signals come from, how far away is it from Hope, and is it a signal of an alien civilization? Or is it a sign of ruins or something? If it is the former, then this set of signals does not know whether it is a blessing or a curse, and as for the latter, it is likely to be the beginning of another technological leap for the Hope.

After learning that the signal of the alien civilization was intercepted in the monitoring room, many personnel rushed one after another, the political axe, the military, the scientific community, and everyone else had basically arrived, and as a result, the monitoring room, which was not spacious, was suddenly crowded, and Yao Yuan could only take these people to a conference room not far away, and then a new meeting was held.

Yao Yuan did not preside over this meeting, he was just discussing something with Ren Tao and Qi Xiaoniao, and the main point of discussion between the three of them was what changes this set of signals could bring to the Hope.

Although this set of signals has not yet been parsed, at least one thing can be understood from this set of signals, in the vicinity of the Hope, or that there was a civilization, this is the first thing to be affirmed, and the second is to hope to know the general information of this civilization through this set of signals, if not, at least the direction and location of this civilization can be clarified, or whether this civilization is still around, etc.

And the three of them still have a few points of consensus, that is, if they can not contact this civilization, then try not to contact it, human beings' own scientific and technological heritage has not been thoroughly analyzed, and a large number of creations of the fourth industrial revolution have not yet been manufactured, such as the great weapon of destruction in Genesis, so what if you meet other civilizations at this time, what about being able to communicate? Even if new technology is obtained, it is estimated that human beings will not be able to absorb it in a short period of time, not to mention, on the other hand, what if the scientific and technological level of this civilization surpasses that of human beings?

Don't blindly trust that the higher the level of technology, the higher the moral level, this sentence is pure fart.

Otherwise, let's take the simplest example, the Spanish colonists and the Native Americans...... Therefore, if human beings encounter other cosmic civilizations, it is unlikely that the level of science and technology will surpass each other, after all, not every race is forced to enter the universe like humans, and this aspect also illustrates a point of view...... As a result of human civilization, it is likely that the other party will decide on the good and evil of the other party, and this situation of leaving one's fate to the other party to decide is really like an ant!

Therefore, after discussion, the three of them decided that if the situation allows, try not to contact each other as well, of course, it is not a complete escape, the key is to depend on the specific situation to decide, for example, if the other party's technology is not much higher than their own, then it doesn't hurt to get in touch, just like the United States and India in the 21st century, there must be a huge gap between the two sides' combat power, but as long as the leaders of the two sides are not crippled, or there is a huge entanglement of interests between each other, then it is basically impossible to fight. Because both sides have scruples in it.

Just as the meeting was going on, and Yao Yuan was also discussing with Ren Tao and Qi Xiaoniao, suddenly several staff members ran in again, and this time their expressions were already panicked, not just excited.

"Ship, Captain, we've detected that this source is approaching us at a breakneck speed, ...... speed."

"It's faster than the speed of light!"
