Chapter 760: Chapter 461: The Cold-Blooded Solution【3500 Words】_1
Harrison Clark was once amazed by the cruising ability of ships at twenty times the speed of light, marveling at the Stargate technology, and being shocked by stellar fortress ships.
But now he discovered that the greatest achievement of humanity in this millennium was not those, but the Shadow Galaxy, the entire Morrowind Empire, and this long and extensive thousand one hundred years history of both construction and war.
Let’s talk about the origin of the Shadow Galaxy first.
After realizing that they had lost the Solar System, Harrison Clark once considered emptying the Solar System and setting up a decoy galaxy outside the Orion Arm.
At the time, he didn’t realize the importance of the Solar System’s parent star environment to humanity.
Recently, as he continued to visit different galaxies and experience different background rules, Harrison Clark gradually realized how important the Solar System was to humanity, so he quietly changed his mind.
But it is unknown whether it was a coincidence or a necessity, that the people who rushed out of the Solar System ahead of time, especially the members of the Salvation Association, made an idea that was very much in line with his first response.
Set up bait and put full effort into the development of a key galaxy.
There are six layers of bait.
The first layer is the Solar System’s Homeworld, which was forced to become bait.
The second layer is the Proxima Centauri System, which is similar to the Solar System, and cannot be wasted because of a hiccup.
The third layer includes the super fleet of Barnard’s Star and the first batch of main combat fleets.
The fourth layer is ordinary colonies.
The fifth layer is the 1024 Stargates.
The sixth layer is the DF-711 Fortress Starship, Ourten Galaxy, and Black Turtle Galaxy.
The last four layers of bait are prepared to prolong the war time and collect more information.
The final destination of this grand and ruthless five hundred-year layout in the post-era lies just behind the strategic depth formed by the six layers of bait, which is the Shadow of the Sun.
All the people in the Shadow Galaxy enjoy the most favorable treatment while bearing the most significant responsibilities.
They are both lurkers and trump cards.
In order to perfectly execute their mission, this group of top talents who had the strongest passion back when they left the Solar System, as well as their descendants, must find ways to hide their existence and that of the Shadow Galaxy while using their wisdom to fully absorb, digest, and advance the scientific and technological achievements of the entire human race in the Orion Arm.
At the same time, like Harrison Clark, no matter how much anxiety they have in their hearts, they must make hiding themselves a top priority and never easily contact the outside world through the quantum network, they can only be observers.
The depth of hiding is no less than that of humans in the seventh timeline, hiding in the secret space research institutes to avoid the pursuit of radium.
Everything begins in 2490, when the last batch of 3 billion people left the Solar System aboard the newly developed high-level pseudo-curvature engine spacecraft.
This last batch of people leaving the Solar System had the highest percentage of top talent.
At that time, more than 80% of the top scholars, talented warriors, and high-intelligence resource allocators in the entire Orion Arm were concentrated in these 3 billion people.
Among them, there were some special passengers.
The Owen family, the Green family, the ancestors of Nora Camp, the young nurse from the Lin family and her parents, the ancestors of Neville Brown, the ancestors of Gaius…
These people, the core members of the contemporary Salvation Association, were also carefully selected by the historians of the Salvation Association based on historical materials, repeatedly verified using large quantum algorithms, and finally met the requirements of being recorded by Harrison Clark in the “Compound Eye Crisis” series, and frequently mentioned in the new version of the novel “Lover”: the ancestors of all the key figures of the “Golden Generation” of 3020.
Harrison Clark was wondering why he was so unlucky that he couldn’t meet a familiar face, and it couldn’t be the entire army’s annihilation.
Now he knows.
It turns out that these people had long deliberately adjusted their mating patterns and behavior patterns to preserve the “memory” candidates and survive outside.
This was all done intentionally by future generations.
In addition, since everyone had the opportunity to come out this time, people wanted to “bet” that they could wait for the advent of the sage Harrison Clark outside the Solar System.
People also wanted to see what heights the sage Harrison Clark could lead humanity if he was given infinite freedom.
Of course, the bet could be lost.
If the people outside develop smoothly but sage Harrison Clark is eventually born within the Solar System and trapped inside, then whether or not to counterattack the Solar System at that time in an attempt to save him, or to abandon him and flee even further, leaving everyone to their own devices?
No one could make a decision before the event happened.
At that time, humans had not thought that the pursuit of the Compound-Eyed Observer would be so horrible, and they didn’t expect that their proudest curvature flight was completely following the “highways” that the Compound-Eyed Observer had prepared in advance.
In any case, people at that time had not yet considered the risk of annihilation for humans in the Solar System.
Although the Dome might come up with new methods, the victories of the past had somewhat numbed the people’s minds.
The vast majority of people firmly believed that people in the Solar System could still turn danger into safety.
Some of the people originally planned to hold out in the Solar System along with Mason Howard and others but ultimately chose to obey the highest strategy of the Salvation Association and leave their homes.
These 3 billion people boarded 300,000 large ships, each capable of carrying 100,000 passengers, and advanced on an azimuth in the Milky Way’s disk to the opposite side of the Orion Arm.
The fleet was named the Pioneer Fleet.
As the name suggests, colonies built by the Pioneer Fleet were to play the role of civilization pioneers.
According to the original plan, the Pioneer Fleet would choose a pre-planned, prosperous star system in a core star region, fifty light-years away from the Solar System, to settle and begin rapid development.
But in 2519, scholars within the Solar System, led by the prodigy Frankie, completed the real curvature engine technology for the first time.
The curvature flight technology at the time could reach 2.3 times the speed of light.In 2523, the Proxima Centauri Colony received a gift from the Homeworld through observation of photoelectric signals, then transformed it into quantum network information and announced it to all mankind.
In 2525, the Pioneer Fleet arrived at a colony established in advance, docked temporarily for a brief rest stop and quickly absorbed the technology, improving the performance of the spacecraft, upgrading the extreme speed of curvature flight, and raising the maximum speed of the ships to 4.5 times the speed of light, surpassing expectations.
In 2540, the Pioneer Fleet set out again after completing the reconstitution of all the spacecraft.
Thanks to the acquisition of more powerful sailing capabilities, the Pioneer Fleet decided to abandon the original plan and attempt to reach even more distant locations.
From then on, the Pioneer Fleet kept moving forward, occasionally stopping but always remained in space.
Of course, this large organization of elite individuals was also involved in the process of technology advancement.
By 2633, the Pioneer Fleet had left the Solar System hundreds of light-years away. Most of the older generation in the fleet had passed away. The new generation had replaced all the ships with state-of-the-art curvature engines that could reach 9.999… times the speed of light.
Regrettably, the developer of this top-tier curvature engine technology was not the free people of the Orion Arm but the Solar System people who were trapped in the Solar System and struggling to survive against ZS Bacteria. The project group of the research institute chaired by Sergey developed it, and Sergey’s last disciple was the head of the development team.
This was the final contribution made by the defenders of the Solar System for the people outside.
Shortly after sending out this signal, Sergey was the only living person left in the Solar System.
The outside people found the destruction of the Homeworld emotionally complicated.
They mourned the loss of the Solar System defenders, but they also felt a sense of relief and luck.
So, is it guaranteed that the “birthplace” of wise men must be outside?
Of course, the outcome now shows that the idea of luck is nonsense.
Harrison Clark arrived alone on Earth, picking up trash on his own with great determination until he found Freddy, and finally escaped the predicament.
Returning to the starting point, it was in 2633 that the Pioneer Explorers, who had set out two hundred years ahead of schedule and were always advancing towards the edge of the Orion Arm, conducting scientific research tasks, discovered a very special star system somewhere in the Orion Arm.
There were many peculiarities about this star system.
It was not an isolated planetary system.
The stars and planetary communities that made it up had a second, smaller elliptical orbit in addition to the revolution around the Galactic Center.
The celestial body around which the second smaller orbit revolved was not a star, but a massive physical black hole.
The period of the second revolution was 180,000 years.
The planetary system, consisting of stars, eight large planets, countless small asteroids, comets, shattered asteroid belts, and nebulae, had all become “satellites” of the massive black hole.
It was not the black hole that was important, but the planetary system.
As Freddy had previously measured, the mass of the star was almost identical to that of the Sun, with similar brightness and radiation types.
More strangely, the layout of its planetary system closely resembled that of the Solar System, with the eight main satellites listed from the inside out as Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune just like in the Solar System.
Planetary structures, masses, materials… all parameters were the same!
Even Pluto, which was kicked out of the Nine Planets, was the same!
The outer Kuiper Asteroid Belt and the Ourten Cloud were also the same!
The third orbital revolution of the small celestial body around the star in the star system was elliptical due to the combined influence of the black hole’s gravity and the centrifugal force of its own revolution.
However, this was not important, as the closer the planet’s revolution orbit to the star, the more circular it was. The third planet, which had the same mass as Earth, was naturally turquoise-blue!
Remote sensing tests revealed that the atmospheric composition on this planet was identical to that of Earth.
The rotation speed was the same, as was the angle between the rotation axis and the Ecliptic Plane!
It had four seasons: spring, summer, autumn, and winter.
This indicated that there must be life on this planet, and the ecological environment was even comparable to that of Earth.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Apart from revolving around the physical black hole, this star system was almost identical to the Solar System.
This was a cosmic miracle!
By the 21st century, human astronomy had been developing for hundreds of years. Many space telescopes had been launched, and many high-level detection devices had been built. They could even calculate the mass of the R136a1 Star in the Large Magellanic Cloud 163,000 light-years away from the Milky Way Galaxy.
However, at that time, astronomers had not discovered this star system with “another Earth” in the “close proximity” of the Orion Arm.
The reason was simple: from 1000 AD to 2800 AD, it just so happened to be behind the massive physical black hole.
Although the volume of the black hole itself was not large, the background radiation interference it released, as well as the coverage of light absorption effect, was not small, forming a perfect shield for the Miracle Galaxy.
Moreover, between the Miracle Galaxy, the black hole, and the Solar System, thousands of scattered stars distributed in a small range near the straight line were ingeniously stacked in a dense array.
The perfect cover formed by the starlight and the black hole radiation made it almost impossible to detect with the astronomical exploration capabilities of humans from the 21st century.
Even in 2633, it was only because the Pioneer Explorers had walked far enough and escaped the cover angle that they could barely see it.
Of course, due to the characteristics of the black hole, the massive black hole will continue to slowly absorb external free cosmic particles and dark matter, dark energy, and other cosmic materials and energy, resulting in a constant increase in its own mass and gradual expansion.
The Miracle Galaxy’s secondary revolution speed will gradually accelerate, and its orbit will shrink, eventually being drawn into a mosquito coil line in the universe and devoured by the black hole.
However, calculations showed that this process would take at least a billion years, which might be an instant for the universe, but countless generations of humans could take root and sprout on it.
This seemingly fragile celestial body’s “brief” life span was an eternal peace for humans.
Thus, the members of the Second Generation Pioneer Fleet decisively changed their itinerary once more, rushing straight to this star system and arriving in 2731 to begin rapidly transforming the star system named Shadow of the Sun.
