Chapter 353: The Second Wormhole

"Star No. 1 has been abandoned, the formation force field has been adjusted, and the galaxy battleship has been activated."

After abandoning a star, the Galaxy Battleship continued its departure, heading towards the Andromeda Galaxy.

The star left in the cosmic void exploded a supernova a month later, and finally became a white dwarf.

Xiang Qiantong Guò probe looked at the scene of the supernova explosion, and felt very helpless. With the current level of science and technology of the Earth Federation, it is not yet possible to achieve 100% utilization of stellar energy. The star, which was abandoned halfway through, is on the verge of becoming a red giant.

Even the super-strong magnetic and gravitational fields could not stop this expansion. So before this star becomes a red giant, you can only abandon it and detonate it.

Originally, the energy used by the Earth Federation used to be extracted evenly across all stars, but now it has been changed to several types of energy to extract a star. So after 3,000 light-years of a galaxy battleship, a star is scrapped.

This detonated star is only the first, but not the last, and every 3,000 light-years of interstellar travel, the Earth Federation will abandon a star.

In fact, abandoned stars can be used as bombs, using the violent energy of the supernova explosion to hinder the civilized races behind.

However, Xiang Qian didn't do that, not because he was kind. It's that kind of "It's too offensive, how many civilized races in the entire galaxy, if the Earth Federation is offended, even if it reaches the Andromeda Galaxy, the Earth Federation should not be mixed.

So the civilized races that follow behind the Earth Federation, every few decades. You can see a supernova explosion. Countless auras could be seen in the entire cosmic void, and these auras were connected one after another. The rings near the Milky Way are the largest, and the smallest near the Andromeda Galaxy. A spectacle was formed in the cosmic void.

This remained the case for 1,000 years, before disappearing after the Earth Federation traveled 200,000 light-years. In addition to the beginning of 20,000 light-years ago, the Earth Federation abandoned a total of 60 stars along the way.

The reason why the Earth Federation is not abandoning stars at a distance of 200,000 light-years is because there is another wormhole in that place.

After the Earth Federation discovered this wormhole, the top management of the entire Earth Federation also breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, according to the energy consumption rate of the Earth Federation, when the Earth Federation sails to a position of 1.65 million light-years away from the Milky Way, it will consume all the stars. The Earth Federation will not be able to maintain 200 times the speed of light by then. It is impossible to reach the Andromeda Galaxy in 10,000 years.

Therefore, the high-level leaders of the entire Earth Federation were in a hurry, especially after sailing 150,000 kilometers, Xiang Qian did not ask for the detection results for a day.

After all, no one knew that this second wormhole was actually 200,000 light-years away from the exit of the first wormhole, and even at 200 times the speed of light, the Earth Federation had flown for more than 1,000 years before reaching here.

"Has the detector yielded results?" Xiang Qian would ask as soon as he got up every morning.

"Boss, the probe hasn't heard anything back."

"Yes, I see."

After Xiang Qian got up and washed. Go to his office in the Earth Federation Building and let the stars show the star map.

This star map shows countless small dots of light, which are the countless civilizations of the galaxy when the Earth Federation abandons a star every time. A batch of detectors will be released, so Xiang Qian can grasp the situation in the rear at the first time.

There are now more than 700 civilized races closest to the Earth Federation. These civilizations are still more than 20,000 light-years away from the Earth Federation, if you change it in time. That is, it will take more than a hundred years to get here.

Even if these civilizations wanted to detect the existence of wormholes, they would need to be 6,000 light-years away from them. So now there is no civilization in the entire galaxy that knows about the existence of the second wormhole.

As for the rest of the civilized races, they are even farther away from the Earth Federation, they are not a threat to the Earth Federation at all, Xiang Qian only needs to pay attention to the first batch of more than 700 civilization races.

Now the Earth Federation is parked in front of the wormhole, waiting for the probe to play the message at the exit of the wormhole, if there is no danger, the Earth Federation will enter the wormhole as soon as possible.

However, it has been a year and a half since the probe entered the wormhole, but no news has been received so far. If it weren't for the problem with the detector, it would be at least 100,000 light-years away from the exit of the wormhole.

Although the longer the distance the wormhole crosses, the better news it is for all civilizations. But again, the longer the probe returns, the more good news it is for the Earth Federation.

Now no one is sure what is at the exit of the wormhole, but according to the analysis of the think tank, the probability of danger at the exit of the wormhole is less than 10%, while the probability of having various resources reaches 80%, and the rest is uncertainty.

I also agree with this analysis item, but agree with it, before the probe sends back information, it is impossible for the Earth Federation to enter the wormhole because of a guess.

But while waiting for the probe to send back a message, it was a waste of time for the Earth Federation.

After all, the Earth Federation must pass through the wormhole before the more than 700 civilizations and races behind can detect the wormhole, and if there are resources at the exit of the wormhole, it is necessary to collect the resources required by the Earth Federation in a hundred years, and then set off immediately.

Otherwise, for the sake of resources, there will definitely be a race war, and it will be a war that will never stop.

It's also a hypothesis that there is a wormhole every 200,000 light-years, and each wormhole is a resource point. Then the time wasted by the Earth Federation in the first resource emperor, and the time when the probe sends back the message, it is estimated that when it persists until the third wormhole, the Earth Federation's current advantage of more than a hundred years of leading will be negated.

At that time, it is very likely that in the fourth wormhole, because of the problem of resources, a big war will break out.

Although the Earth Federation is confident that it will win the race war, but in the face of a war related to the life and death of the race, other civilized races will definitely fight with all their might, and even if the Earth Federation wins, the price to pay may be something that Xiang Qian is unwilling to bear.

And after reaching the Andromeda Galaxy, it is not known what kind of crisis it will face, and it is very unwise to waste the potential of the entire race on competing for resources.

So now Xiang Qian is waiting for news from the probe every day, and at the same time hopes that the first echelon behind can do something to delay the speed of progress, although this is basically impossible to launch.

In a thousand years, the Earth Federation has consumed too many materials, but in addition to energy consumption, other material consumption Earth Federation can still sustain. Therefore, Xiang Qian has already thought about it, once there are resources at the exit of the wormhole, then the Earth Federation does not need anything else, and directly packs the stars away, and when other resources are packed with stars, they can take away as much as they can.

"Starry sky, how much equipment has been replaced in the stellar ring?" Xiang Qian asked at the starry sky.

"Boss, 28 percent has been replaced. Depending on your requirements and the current pace of replacement, it will take another five years and six months for the full replacement to be completed. ”

"Well, are there any other issues that need to be solved?"

"No other issues have been identified at this time."

"Then you inform the Armament Department and ask them to hurry up and build the stellar confinement equipment and assembly equipment, I hope that when I capture the stars again, the speed must be more than double the previous one."

"Okay, boss."

In this way, the Earth Federation stopped in front of the wormhole to rest while waiting for the probe to send back a message.

This is more than three years.

"Boss, the probe sent back a message that there is no danger at the exit of the wormhole, but there is a huge galaxy at the exit of the wormhole." On this day, the starry sky suddenly said to Xiang Gan.

"Stick to all the equipment right away, and if there is no problem, set off immediately and enter the wormhole." Xiang Qian immediately stood up and said excitedly.

He has been waiting for this day for more than three years, so it's no wonder if he can't be excited. (To be continued......)
