097 Self-reinforcement that can't be stopped?
The Stellar modification was not responsible, it was just a one-day installation of a separate power source for the hyperspace engine.
Subsequently, after two days of commissioning and testing, it was ready for use.
For this operation, the twelve mecha brigades that were originally fully loaded on the Star were directly removed, and eight of them were directly removed, after all, there were still a large number of people and various equipment passing through, and enough space must be freed up.
If it weren't for the possible dangers...
The fleet command even wanted to remove the remaining four mech brigades.
"Captain, all personnel have confirmed that they have all boarded the ship and are ready to go."
"Chen Xiaoguang, connect the zero-point energy to the hyperspace engine, target the Great Magellanic Galaxy, the Alpha Galaxy."
"Yes, Captain!"
The next moment, the Star had already rushed into the newly formed hyperspace window and disappeared.
At a distance of 160,000 light-years, even today's technology cannot accurately detect which star system has a civilization and which star system does not.
It is impossible to know exactly which galaxy has the existence of a living planet.
Therefore, only with limited observational data, the star system that is most likely to have a planet of life can be extrapolated, that is, this alpha star system.
The reason why the Alpha star system was chosen as the first stop among the many star systems suspected to have life planets is mainly because, based on the observed data, it is likely that there are two life planets here at the same time.
At the same time, the Alpha Galaxy is also well located, located in the center of a dense galaxy, with 167 star systems around it within 100 light years, most of which are less than 2 light years apart.
Most critically, there are 38 planets in this dense galaxy that are suspected to be potentially life-threatening.
That's quite an exaggeration.
You must know that in the 300 light-years surrounding the Death Nebula, there are only 37 star systems with living planets, and most of them are not natural life planets, but later modified life planets.
Therefore, it is conceivable what a rich place the region where the Alpha Galaxy is located.
"Report, the hyperspace engine is working normally, and the output of the zero-point energy module is stable!"
"The current velocity is 0.148 light-years per second."
Hearing this, Jiang Xingchen nodded with satisfaction.
At 0.148 light-years per second, that's almost 12,800 light-years per day, so it would take only 12 and a half days to reach the Great Magellanic System.
This is much faster than on the Orion arm.
After all, there were no zero-point energy modules at that time, so the speed of hyperspace navigation had to be controlled, otherwise those super controllable nuclear fusion reactors alone might not be able to supply them for tens of light-years.
At this moment, the performance of the hyperspace engine has finally been completely released.
"Captain, Vice President Su wants to talk to you."
"Uh..."
Jiang Xingchen, who was just about to get up and go to the porthole to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the superspace, was directly stunned after hearing Fu Wanting's words.
Who is Vice Dean Su?
Naturally, the younger sister of our captain, she is also the leader of the scientific research team that went to the Big Magellanic system this time.
Even if he didn't know what was going on, Jiang Xingchen felt that it was definitely not a good thing.
"Take it!"
"Okay, Captain!"
The next moment, Su Yingxue's figure was projected.
"Yingxue, you..."
"Are you okay now?"
Without waiting for Jiang Xingchen to finish speaking, Su Yingxue directly interrupted him.
"I'm commanding a battleship."
"For the next ten days, I will be sailing in the same hyperspace, is there a place where you need to command?"
"Uh... You can't say that, what if something goes wrong? ”
"So, if something goes wrong, you'll fix it?"
"Well... What's the matter with you? ”
Sighing slightly, Jiang Xingchen surrendered.
"I don't want to waste this more than ten days of travel, you come over immediately and cooperate with me to continue your genetic research."
"Wait... You're not going to bleed me again, are you? ”
Hearing that Su Yingxue wanted to study her genes, Jiang Xingchen immediately shuddered.
This girl, lately, has been obsessed with her so-called savior genes, and she pulls herself to put a tube of blood at every turn, or conducts various experiments on herself.
It will be formed, and there will be a psychological shadow on it.
"Don't worry, you are my brother, how can my sister hurt my brother?"
"Okay, I'll come over after I arrange it..."
"Wait for you!"
The next moment, the call was hung up.
On the side, Fu Wanting was looking at Jiang Xingchen with a look of pity.
"Wanting, the bridge will be handed over to you, contact me directly if you have any situation."
"Captain, leave it to me next, you can go in peace."
An hour later.
In a makeshift laboratory.
Jiang Xingchen was lying on the test bench helplessly, all kinds of patches were all over his body, and around him were a large number of instruments, constantly tumbling data.
On the side, Su Yingxue, who was wearing a white coat, looked at these data thoughtfully.
"Yingxue, is it okay?"
"Shut up, don't interrupt my train of thought!"
"Uh... All right! ”
Someone immediately coaxed, obediently shut up, and continued to lie on the corpse.
Until half an hour later.
"Strange, so strange, what is this inexplicable gene fragment?"
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Xingchen, who was lying in the corpse, subconsciously asked after hearing Su Yingxue's words.
"What's wrong? It's a big problem! ”
"I wonder if you're a monster in human skin!"
Hey, hey, what are you talking about?
Is it polite to say that your brother is a monster?
Although he wanted to complain, Jiang Xingchen also cared about what Su Yingxue meant.
How did you become a monster in human skin?
"Did you find anything?"
"I did find a big problem, do you know why the maximum genetic enhancement defined by the Star Sea Federation is only level seven?"
"That's because level seven is already the limit of what humans can bear!"
Without thinking too much, Jiang Xingchen replied directly.
This is recorded in the Tinder database, as if no matter how much you exercise your body, you can't exceed the limit of what your body can bear.
There is also a limit to genes, and the limit of what human genes can endure is defined by the Star Sea Federation as seven levels.
"That's right, the seventh-level genetic enhancement defined by the Star Sea Federation is already the limit, but you don't seem to have this limit."
"No limits? Isn't that a good thing? ”
Hearing this, Jiang Xingchen asked a little strangely.
After all, not having a limit means being infinitely stronger, isn't that a good thing or a bad thing?
"Good thing you're big!"
"What do you think the limit is?"
"That's a limitation, but also a kind of self-protection, because there are so many genes that can bear it, if you don't have this self-protection and continue to strengthen, once you can't bear it, your genes will completely collapse!"
"Uh... After I become a level 7 enhancer, it should be okay if I don't continue to strengthen, right? ”
When Su Yingxue said this, Jiang Xingchen was also taken aback.
But soon, a solution was thought of.
After Lao Tzu reached the seventh level, he no longer continued to receive reinforcement, isn't this the end of it?
How smart...
However...
"You're thinking too well, if it's someone else, it's really fine, but you're different."
"Others rely on genetic enhancement pills, but you are different, you don't need gene enhancement pills at all, but after the so-called savior gene is activated, it will be strengthened independently."
"Now you're almost reaching the Level 3 Gene Enhancer standard."
"In other words, when you reach the seventh level of genetic enhancement one day, it will still continue to strengthen itself, and there is no restriction on you, but it can't stop all this, and eventually..."
Hiss...
At this time, Jiang Xingchen finally understood.
It's like a balloon, people just blow it up and stop and don't blow it.
But even if you stop and don't blow it, the balloon will still inhale from the outside, and eventually...
Peng!
