"Captain Du, I think what Zhou Ailian said makes sense, the three hundred interstellar exploration ships that set off together back then have now been damaged forty-six due to various accidents, and one hundred and fifty-eight have given up exploration and returned to the Emperor Star, and there are not many exploration ships that continue to persevere.

Even if we continue to persevere, the probability of finding the home planet in the future is very small, so why bother? ”

But as long as they can find a little clue and a little clue over the years, then it is possible to continue to explore with hope, but the key thing is that for more than 600 years, they have not found any good news.

So Li Dongting quickly agreed.

Although he didn't directly say that he wanted to go back, he also pointed out that there was little hope, and the implication was nothing more than that it was better to go back.

Xiong Zi was also blunt at this time:

"Three hundred years ago, there were still many people on the Star Internet discussing the matter of finding the mother planet, although most of the discussion was questioning whether the mother planet still existed, whether it had been destroyed a long time ago, and whether it was just a nonsense made up above, wasting our youth.

However, in the past one or two hundred years, there have been fewer people who even question it, and even the home planet research institute and the Institute of Ancient History, which were at their peak back then, are now in decline, not only have the annual funding been reduced by a few zeros.

Even recruiting employees has become very difficult.

Some colleges and universities have even banned related majors outright.

All of this, although it is not directly stated that the so-called search for the home planet is a lie, but it is almost similar to saying it explicitly, or in other words, it is basically determined that there is no hope, but the relevant agencies are embarrassed to announce it directly, so they can only downplay it. ”

"At the beginning, I was hoping to find the home planet one day, even if I was not the real discoverer, I could at least leave a name in the history books because I participated in this work, but now I have to put a question mark on whether the mother planet exists, and all this I did is really meaningless!

I have wasted more than six hundred years of my life for this, and even if I shorten the time of sleep to the life I really spent, then I have wasted more than thirty years of life for this, even if my life is much longer than in the past, but more than thirty years is not a small number, and I have few thirty years to waste in my life.

I don't want to waste another thirty years.

and even the next thirty years.

Then he went back with nothing to gain and nothing to gain.

So although this is a bit like a deserter, I really don't want to continue, my thoughts are the same as Zhou Ailian, I hope to go back, even if you still want to continue to explore, then I hope to be able to send us back first, spend ten years to send us back, and then you can come back.

Anyway, as long as you remember the coordinates and be able to jump over directly, it's nothing more than going back and forth for twenty years, if you insist so much, you should be able to afford to waste twenty years, I think, that's what other people mean. ”

Because the master control of the exploration ship is in the hands of the captain.

Even if they were far away from the Emperor Star, they didn't dare to say that they had assassinated the captain and then privately manipulated the exploration ship back, so they could only use public opinion to facilitate this matter.

As long as the majority of the thirteen people support going back.

Du Huaixiang is not good at refusing this matter strongly.

"Have you forgotten the oath you made before you took off, didn't you say that if you don't find your home planet, you won't return, and you are willing to spend the rest of your life for this goal as a lifelong career?"

Although Du Huaixiang's face was still the same, his pupils were full of disappointment at this time.

Everyone has changed, changed a lot.

"Struggle must also have a purpose, and we have to hope that it is not, but now, we can't see any hope, what is the point of such an aimless struggle, and the struggle is just an empty one in the end.

You have no parents, no wife and no children, and you are alone.

But we're not.

There may still be some hope for 300 exploration ships to search together, but now that there are no people to continue to explore in so many directions, who can guarantee that the real location of the home planet is not those star fields that no one has explored?

Even proportionally.

This probability is relatively large, right? ”

Zhou Ailian continued, he was really tired, at this moment, he wanted to go back to accompany his mother through the last years, and then accompany his granddaughter who didn't even go back to attend the wedding and is now about to die.

Not everyone is willing, or they all have money, and they will sleep for hundreds of years without interruption using the sleeping pod, six hundred years is a long time, long enough to send away several generations, and a large part of the people no longer know their existence, nor do they know that there is a plan to explore the home planet, and they will most likely not be famous in history, but will be directly forgotten by future generations.

After that, the other people who didn't speak all expressed their opinions one after another, although there were three people who still supported continuing to explore, otherwise so many years would not have been wasted, but more people still said that they were tired and tired, and they didn't want to continue to do useless work.

Seeing that most people are not in favor of continuing to explore.

Du Huaixiang could only follow the opinions of most people and apply to the above to return home, and the relevant agencies probably saw a lot of similar situations, so they agreed directly without asking why, and helped them open the permission to jump in the space wormhole, so that they could go home faster.

……

Human Federation, Emperor Star.

Ministry of Finance, major project appropriation seminars.

David, who was in charge of organizing the meeting, was really helpless and put aside the application for the Roots-Seeking Project:

"Liu Yue, why don't you give up!

Don't you think that if you change your name, you can successfully apply for so much funding, isn't the so-called root-finding plan still ongoing, and it has no results, and there is no direct failure to find the home planet?

300 billion funds!

In exchange for real currency, it can be piled up into a mountain and fill up a small lake, but when you put it into the plan of Li Yue's search for the home planet of your predecessors, you didn't even see a splash, and you buried a lot of lives in vain.

We haven't banned your home planet cultural research institute is already quite face-saving, how can we still agree to you to have another root-seeking plan, isn't that a waste of national taxes? You don't want to come again, okay?

Don't submit any more of these stuff either.

We won't approve it. ”

"David, the information left behind by countless predecessors is enough to prove that the mother planet exists, we are not the native life of the emperor star, we have migrated from other galaxies, and forgetting the past is tantamount to betrayal!"

"I firmly believe that the home planet may exist in a star field that a certain interstellar exploration ship has no longer explored, and as long as I allocate another 150 billion funds, I can continue the root-finding plan.

If you believe me, you will succeed.

I dare to pledge my life......"

Although Liu Yue herself did not come, her holographic projection at this time was excitedly trying to persuade the people present.

"I'm sorry, but your life isn't worth fifteen billion.

I hope that the next time you submit your application, you will at least have some accurate and reliable clues, instead of just drawing us out of thin air, we don't eat this set, you know?

In the entire river system, there are not many civilizations that remember the history of ancient times, and I have not seen any civilization to die or live.

Don't always dwell on the past.

What if you find your home planet.

It's nothing more than one more tourist attraction!

If you apply for a normal planet, you need to transform it into a home planet, and get some ancient city pools that can be found in historical records, or ancient customs streets, etc.

I'll be able to give you approval right away. ”

The so-called different ways and do not conspire with each other, David and Liu Yue's ideas are fundamentally different, so it is difficult to reach an agreement in this regard, which is normal.

And the end result, of course, is that the application fails.

Not a penny was approved.
