Forty Millenniums of Cultivation

Faced with the captain's insistence, the crew silenced.

But they were surrounded by a flash of scarlet light, indicating their silence, which was in no way an endorsement of the captain.

“So what? ”

Finally, Deputy Quick represents the vast majority of the bridge crew, softly.

The captain flickered slightly.

“So what? ”

The captain looked incredibly at the first mate, "Quick, what the hell do you mean, make it clear! ”

“Yes, Captain, then I'll be clear. ”

Vice President Quick went out, and he faced Captain High-Johnson Dragon with no expression, "Even if we really squeezed out this rich little world in front of us, repaired or even upgraded the Emerald, and continued on our journey, or... the death journey of a bereaved dog, and, with the luck of the sky, found dozens or even hundreds of other similar rich worlds, gathered all the resources, and reassembled a haunting fleet, so what, then were we able to fight the floods?

“Remember, before the flood surge, our original civilization was in control of the whole star sea! We built hundreds of millions of starships, we conquered countless rich planets, we slaughtered millions of powerful civilizations of intelligent life, we are the kings of kings, the masters of all the universes!

“And then what, does it work?

“In the face of the flood, hundreds of millions of stars flew instantly out of ash and smoke, even more tragic, became puppets of the flood tide, one planet after another was transformed, a batch of former primitives were bewildered, willing to put themselves into the embrace of the flood tide, even if we ignited hundreds of millions of stars to form the 'Sun Defense Line’ was easily breached, until finally, even a small wave of the flood could force us to move our heads!

“Captain, if you think about it, with the last starship we have left, even if it's a hundred times more powerful, can we compare it to the primitive civilization of the height of the world, I'm afraid it's not even worth a dime?

“The original civilization of the full period was broken apart by Hong Tiao scores. Even if we are 100 times more powerful, how can we fight Hong Tiao? ”

First Lieutenant Quick finished like a beaded cannon, breathing heavily.

This has been accumulated for too long between him and the vast majority of the bridge crew, and the atmosphere on the bridge has become different at this point.

Captain Gao Zunlong stood still.

The surrounding glare alternates and the flames flame.

It seemed unexpected that after a long voyage, one's crew had become so weak.

“So? ”

The captain squinted his eyes, coldway, “What are you going to do, park here, don't you want to move on? ”

“Moving forward? ”

First Vice President Quick smiled bitterly, "Towards a defined goal, a big step forward guided by hope, which is called 'moving forward'; there is no goal at all, no hope is seen, roaming in the dark, it is just no fly, it only prolongs the asthma.

“Why not choose a better way to treat yourself if you're all stuck with asthma?

“Captain, let's get this straight, the brothers are tired and can't walk any further.

“We have been lost in this cruel sea of stars for far too long. We have been wandering since our ancestors. We have never experienced the so-called 'glory of the original civilization', nor do we know what it was like to rule the world. Since the memory of our fathers and fathers, we have lived in a precarious, frightening and endless life.

“Every day we endure dirty air, rotten circulating water, synthetic foods that taste like chewing wax, we die as a result of a hibernation bin failure, we die as a result of a power furnace explosion, we die as a result of meteorites smashing through the shell of a starship and being sucked into the vacuum of the universe - I hear that at the strongest of the original civilizations, our ancestors had already cultivated the frozen and ruthless realm of the universe without fear of its free transformation between matter and energy, only unfortunately, after so many years of being chased by floods, our civilizations have degraded to such a deplorable extent that most of the extraordinary technologies and methods of cultivation have been lost and cannot survive in the vacuum of the universe!

“Can such suffering still brag in the face that it is a 'journey’? Are we really living like this, or is it a pathetic walking corpse?

“Tired, Captain, we're so tired.

“If we do not find the abundance of the world in front of us, we may be able to continue our journey in a callous manner.

“But the world in front of us is so peaceful, so beautiful, so fantastic that it's beautiful enough to break all our beliefs, that there's only one thought left in our minds, which is to stay here forever, live a carefree, satisfied life! ”

“A carefree, satisfied life? ”

Captain Gao Zhonglong whispered twice and suddenly raised his eyebrows, like a razor blade, he growled with a thunderous voice, “Are you all crazy? Are you clogged by stardust in your brain, or are you burned by the stars so you can't think? Hung Chao is still behind us and will find us anytime soon! ”

“No, Captain, the flood tide has not appeared for two or three thousand years, and we have temporarily escaped it. ”

Quick's deputy had no expression, “A hundred bugs, dead without rigidity. After all, the original civilization once flourished. Even though it collapsed, there were also tens of millions of fleets of fleets, scattered all over the stars and seas, the flood tide always had to be one by one, slowly harvested.

“In other words, we do not need to escape the flood tide, we just need to be more covert than our brotherly fleets.

“In this sense, what you call collecting resources, repairing and upgrading a starship, rather than looking for a way to die, is sure to unleash all kinds of special energy ripples and signals that are easily searchable by flood tides.

“Conversely, if we hide in this rich world, seal all high-tech and practice secrets as much as possible, and don't leak even a one-and-a-half star signal out, Hung Chi won't be able to find us so easily before we harvest the fleet of brothers. ”

“Brother Fleet, Quick, do you have the face to say the word 'brother'? ”

Captain Takashi laughed furiously, “Your way is to be a turtle with your head down, use your brother as a shield, in exchange for a fantastic sense of security that prolongs your asthma? ”

“Sounds kind of mean, but they're not really ‘brothers’ either. ”

First Counselor Quick faintly said, "Prior to the flood tide, the original civilization had been divided, conquering the original families of different universes, alienating to the local appearance, neighboring, mutilating hands and feet —— didn't we fight many civil wars? I wouldn't feel a little guilty watching these people die. ”

“Well, even though these so-called 'brothers fleet’ have nothing to do with us, how long can we hide here? 10,000 years, 100,000 years, a million years? ”

Captain Gao Zhonglong exclaimed, “In the end, we will still be found by Hung Chao! ”

“A million years, isn't that enough? My captain, don't be greedy. ”

Vice President Quick's face revealed a helpless smile, “Life and old disease, the laws of nature, any civilization rise and meteorite, if our civilization can still enrich the world here for a million more comfortable years, no, just 100,000 years, even 10,000 years is fine, I will be satisfied.

“After all, with our lives, we can't support 10,000 years at all. Even if we count our children and grandchildren, they have enough to live a wonderful life without worries. Who cares if the flood will come after we all die? ”

“ …… ”

Captain Takashi stared dead at First Officer Quick, as if he never knew his “loyal” Deputy.

“Insufficient resources. ”

Captain Zhonglong bites his teeth, “Even if, as you say, he hides here as a shrugged turtle, this side of the world is rich in resources, still not enough for all the crew on the Emerald, comfortable and carefree to live their lives. ”

“Yes, it's not enough, but who says it's for all the crew? ”

First Officer Quick's smile suddenly became incredibly weird, "99% of the crew are still in hibernation, so let them go on hibernating forever. All this rich world's resources have to do is supply us - 1% of the sober, isn't that enough? ”
