Chapter 989: The Crashed Spaceship
That's right, what Xiao Yu's probe captured at this moment is such a picture.
In the deep, dark and cold depths of the universe, a lonely fleet suddenly discovers another crashed spaceship that does not belong to any known existence of its own, which is a common scene in science fiction horror movies. Normally, disaster begins when the fleet can't contain its curiosity and begins to explore the crashed ship.
However, this kind of bridge is not suitable for Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu's strength at this moment had basically reached the peak of the regular strength of this universe, and Xiao Yu was confident that he would defeat any seventh-level civilization. And the spaceship that crashed at this moment doesn't look like it has seventh-level civilization technology.
And along the way in the past hundreds of thousands of years, Xiao Yu has encountered many strange things, and Xiao Yu is also a character who has seen big scenes.
The ship, which was found to have crashed, is located on a dwarf planet next to an ordinary aging star. This dwarf planet is about two-thirds the diameter of the Moon, but it has 80 percent of the Moon's mass. This means that it possesses a greater density than the Moon. After calculations, Xiao Yu learned that the main components of this dwarf planet are silicon and iron. The mass of the red giant star around it has decayed to less than 70 percent of the Sun's, but its volume is more than ten times that of the Sun.
The dwarf planet is about 300 million kilometers away from the red giant star and orbits it with an orbital period of 233 years. It's all very ordinary, nothing strange about it.
This is very common in the river system IC1101. After all, there are so many red giants here. And there are just too many planets orbiting the star. River IC1101. There are about 100 trillion stars, which is about 4 million times the number of stars in the Milky Way. And the number of planets is several times more than that.
Xiao Yu's probe was passing by here. Anomalous reflections of material on the dwarf planet have been observed. This caught the attention of the probe's internal program. So the probe temporarily stopped its hurried footsteps and carried out a more detailed exploration of the place, so it found the spaceship that crashed here.
There was a sign that Xiao Yu discovered very quickly. Xiao Yu found that the surface of the spacecraft was still very smooth, and it was precisely because of this that it was able to emit a reflection that was enough to be noticed by the probe. But this is unusual. One thing to know is that this dwarf planet has a very soft surface. At the same time, asteroid impacts are also very common for it. This means that the ship's crash here is something that happened in the recent past, otherwise. It had long been buried by the soft surface of the dwarf planet.
Of course, this recent period is on an astronomical scale. On an astronomical scale, hundreds of thousands of years. Millions of years. can be regarded as in the recent past. However, the time of the ship's crash is really recent. Xiao Yu has made a simple calculation, and the conclusion is that the time for the spaceship to crash is no more than a thousand years at most. It's as if it happened yesterday.
At most, this spaceship is at the level of a sixth-level civilization, and at a speed of up to one hundred and fifty times the speed of light of a sixth-level civilization, the range of activity of a sixth-level civilization will probably not exceed 200,000 light-years. This means that within 200,000 light-years of this dwarf planet, there is likely to be a sixth-level civilization. This. is what Xiao Yu is interested in.
After spending tens of thousands of years of loneliness, it can be regarded as a sixth-level civilization. Xiao Yu was also quite interested in communicating with them. If Xiao Yu is in a good mood, then it is not impossible to hand them some advanced technology.
With this state of mind, this fleet of 10,000 spaceships is speeding towards here at a speed of 3,000 times the speed of light. And Xiao Yu's main fleet did not stop its pace - a sixth-level civilization spaceship was not enough for Xiao Yu to stop, and it was enough to send a fleet forward.
In the depths of this lonely and deep universe, this spaceship, which is about spindle-shaped, has a length of more than ten kilometers at the longest point, and is inserted obliquely on this dwarf planet, reflecting the faint red light from the red giant star next to it, without any sound or movement. And Xiao Yu's probe has been hovering more than three hundred kilometers above it at the moment, watching it all the time, waiting for the arrival of the fleet with complete detection instruments.
More than a year later, the exploration fleet finally arrived. Dozens of village-level warships that served as landing ships successfully landed on this dwarf planet, and even with the most advanced anti-gravity buffering mode, the landing of these landing ships still raised a large cloud of dust. However, no amount of dust could hide this huge spaceship.
By normal eyes, the ship was too big. Here, the length of a dozen kilometers, the width and height of about three kilometers is not just a number. Three kilometers is three thousand meters, and even on Earth, how many peaks are there that are more than three kilometers high? This can be described as an endless sight.
After these dozen or so village-level warships, more spaceships descended, and a large number of landing robots also came out of these spaceships, attaching themselves to this spaceship like ants moving green worms.
All of a sudden, on the ground, the sky was full of the shadows of spaceships, various types of login robots, various types of instruments and equipment shuttled here, and the high-powered artificial sun illuminated the place brightly, and even obscured the light of the star in the distance. In this very short period of time, Xiao Yu has turned this place into a busy construction site.
Xiao Yu was not in such a hurry to break the spaceship. Xiao Yu first tested the shell of the spaceship, and the test results confirmed Xiao Yu's guess. This spaceship uses helium atom polymer material as the main material of the shell, which is a prominent sign of a sixth-level civilization. At the same time, Xiao Yu also conducted an investigation into the cause of the ship's crash.
Evidence is often hidden in inconspicuous places. In those inconspicuous places, Xiao Yu found something. Xiao Yu observed that in the helium atom polymerization material of the spacecraft's shell, there were some signs of abnormal particles jumping to lower energy levels. Xiao Yu is familiar with this situation, and usually, this is a reaction caused by high-power gamma ray irradiation. And for a sixth-level civilization ship, this sign is unusual. Because the spaceships all have a shield system, not to mention the ships of the sixth-level civilization. Since traces of high-energy gamma rays have been found on the shell of this sixth-level civilization ship, it can only prove that the ship's shield system has been destroyed when it is irradiated by these gamma rays.
This is unlikely to be due to artificial forces. Because Xiao Yu calculated the power of the high-energy gamma ray through observation. The conclusion was that it was a high-energy gamma ray emitted by a supernova explosion. Xiao Yu observed that less than a thousand light-years away, there was a cloud of debris after the explosion of a supernova. In the center of this wreckage, there is also a neutron star.
So what happened was deduced by Xiao Yu.
The sixth-level civilization spaceship had traveled a long way, perhaps due to negligence or other reasons, but in short, when they passed next to the aging star, the star suddenly exploded.
It is clear that the spacecraft did not make a real-time probe of that star. This negligence has had the most fatal consequences. When they noticed a sudden increase in the star's luminosity, a high-energy gamma-ray burst carrying deadly energy also arrived. A high-energy gamma-ray burst destroyed the ship's outer shield system in an instant, leaving a trail on the ship's outer shell. Then, a high-energy gamma-ray burst passed through these shells and into the interior of the ship.
This high-energy gamma-ray burst likely caused severe damage to the ship's internal instruments, and killed most of the sapient beings within the ship. They must have continued to hold on for a while before they came to the dwarf planet, perhaps trying to land on it for some rest, but things didn't turn out as they expected. For some reason, perhaps because the descent was not smooth, they did not achieve their goal, and they never rose again after landing on this dwarf planet. It's here that they rest. A thousand years passed in a hurry, until this moment, Xiao Yu arrived here.
This is the story of what this sixth-level civilization spaceship has experienced.
After thinking about these things, Xiao Yu started the next step. A large number of login droids, carrying a large number of instruments, began to dismantle the ship's hull. After a few hours, more than a dozen holes had appeared in the ship's hull, and a large number of internal detection robots followed these holes into the ship.
There are more than a dozen holes, and the robot is divided into more than a dozen parts. The robots that entered the interior of the spaceship saw a different scene. There's nothing strange about these sights, but ...... One of the robots sent Xiao Yu images that shocked Xiao Yu beyond measure.
"This, what's going on?!" Xiao Yu almost screamed out loud. (To be continued......)
