The Path Toward Heaven

Disappearing in the dark does not mean that it is dead.

In fact, none of the stars in this universe have actually died, but just like the star of the 857 galaxy, the surface or the near outer space is blocked by dark spores like dust.The light and heat gradually accumulate in the closed space, I don't know when it will spew out.

"This is a slow process, and there is no need to worry about things like collapsing stars in a short period of time. In addition, insufficient star light will cause the temperature in the galaxy to drop, which will be troublesome for lower civilizations. Fortunately, humans do not need it now. Worry about these problems. "Shen Yunbu's voice rang in the battleship.

At this time, the battleship Jiaowei was millions of kilometers away, relying on micro-torque hollow communication technology, and there would be no delay in the dialogue.

"Just spores?" Jing Jiu asked.

The amount of organic matter in the universe is relatively small. Why are there so many spores enough to block the 857 stars and those in front?

He felt that the black dust had other oddities.

Shen Yun buried said: "The concentration of the sea of ​​dark matter cannot temporarily reduce the temperature of the star, but it slows the speed of photons and other particles a lot, so it will become dark."

This explanation has some truth, but it is not enough to convince Jing Jiu. He is going to continue to ask something. The battleship Lieyang shook slightly and began to slow down.

In the distant universe, the spot-like Battleship Jiaowei began to slow down at the same time, and then changed its course in a certain direction.

"Bypassing the big mutton black hole, you will go to the beach and get ready." Shen Yunbu finished the sentence and turned off the phone.

After passing through the torsion hole, bypassing the extremely large black sheep hole that has become a myth in the Galaxy Alliance, it came to the corner of the local galaxy group.

The universe is still very dark, and distant stars are hard to see in the endless void ocean.

In front of the two battleships there was a splendid starry sky.

The reconnaissance fleet of Star Chain Fleet is performing missions here.

More than seven thousand warships are in the universe, facing the dark world far away, looking like countless people holding surfboards ready to rush to the sea.

The spores sprayed by uninfested life are the medium. The speed of the sea of ​​dark objects can be said to be extremely slow compared to the speed of the universe, and there is no spray.Then the location of these warships is the shore, but I do n’t know how far away from the forefront coastline.

It can be seen that the military is very aware of the scope of the sea of ​​dark objects.

The technological level of the Galaxy Alliance has not been able to observe the existence of dark matter until today, let alone capture, how did humans judge it?

The invisible light curtain hangs from above the floor-to-ceiling windows and thickens at a rapid rate, forming an extremely complex three-dimensional star map.

Those faint spots are stars, the dense highlights are battleships, and those dark spaces are the sea of ​​dark things.

Jing Jiujing looked at the star chart quietly, and was not bothered by this question, because he knew the answer when he was at the base.

Human beings cannot observe dark matter, and they cannot know where the boundary of the sea of ​​dark matter is, but they can observe indirectly through the infected living body.

Those living bodies will be released into the universe, and where they begin to be infested, it shows where the sea of ​​dark things has drowned.

In a sense, this method is very similar to the sonar used by ancient humans, and those living bodies are sound waves.

Of course, these lives can also be understood as scouts, but only perform missions that have no return.

The infested life forms will all become monsters, so the selection conditions for this type of life form are very strict, not only to ensure that they can survive in the vacuum for a long enough time, but also to ensure that they will not be too powerful after becoming a monster Otherwise, the sea of ​​dark things will expand faster and faster with these lives.

Those life scouts cannot naturally be humans—again reiterating that this has nothing to do with humanitarianism, just not.

These conditions also directly exclude beasts and birds.

Those microorganisms and viruses are too small, and are easily killed by cosmic rays. It becomes difficult to remove after turning into blood, and it is impossible to be selected.

So logically, plants have become the best choice.Many early human experiments have shown that living plants survive in the universe for a while, mosses and certain algae live longer. The problem is that plants take the longest time to be infiltrated by the sea of ​​dark objects ... this is completely incompatible with "reconnaissance" Soldiers ".Dead organisms, such as fat alone, can also be infested by the sea of ​​dark objects, and there is no threat, but there is a similar problem with plants, that is, it is difficult to observe their changes in a short time.When humans observe that they are infested, the sea of ​​dark objects has surrounded the warships. What's the point?

In order to find the most suitable life scout to detect the boundary of the sea of ​​dark objects, scientists and ordinary people in the past have used their imagination to the fullest, and have put forward countless solutions, some of which are extremely strange and unknown, such as E. coli, some It sounds reasonable and just stereotypes, such as mice, and some programs are indeed very manipulative, such as maggots, but they have failed in the experiment, even the most viable maggots cannot withstand the low temperature and high heat Conversion.

In the end, humans were forced to choose a species of life that most humans hate and do not want to deal with. That is the cockroach.

That is cockroaches.

The tenacious and peculiar characteristics of cockroach life need not be described here.

Scientists used multiple rounds of experiments to prove that no better candidate could be found. The military finally selected a special cockroach on a planet as a scout.

Unfortunately, even after obtaining official certification and beginning to play a more important role in human history than in the past tens of thousands of years, the image of cockroaches has not improved.Even the officers and men on the interstellar fleet were reluctant to mention this "comrade-in-arms" and were transferred to the reconnaissance warship to release the cockroach, which became the strictest type of military discipline.

...

...

The expansion of the sea of ​​dark things is smooth, and there is no need to worry about suddenly creating a channel from inside, so in fact humans can complete the demarcation work without releasing too many cockroaches.According to the usual three-level defense standard, a cockroach is thrown every 10,000 kilometers. This universe only needs ... from seven thousand warships to throw 700 billion cockroaches.

It sounds like a lot, but it's really not much. The reproduction ability of cockroaches is extremely strong, which can ensure a continuous supply of ease and endless supply.

Thank god.

The real trouble is the need to implant microchips in the body of each cockroach for remote control, observation and eventual destruction.

This is thanks to the yukata girl by the hot spring. She is the best at this kind of thing, and it took only a short time to solve the problem.

If 700 billion cockroaches appear at the same time, it will be the most violent and dense insect rain in the world. Fortunately, the infinite space has completely diluted this possibility.

In the universe, these bugs are the smallest point, except for the remote monitoring equipment, people on the battleship can't see their existence at all.

Jing Jiu's eyes passed through the floor-to-ceiling windows and fell deep in the universe. A very dim flame suddenly flashed in the depths of his eyes.

A cockroach encountered a sea of ​​dark objects and was soon infected, and the microchip exploded.

No one cares about the death of a bug, but the death of this bug is like a super-equivalent nuclear bomb exploding in the universe, the invisible shock wave swaying everywhere.

Seven thousand warships withdrew at the same time, like the seaside tourists who were scared by the tide.

...

...

The retreating battleship maintained a relatively stable speed, like leaves floating in the breeze.

The officers and soldiers on the battleship were used to this process and did not feel nervous but excited.

Most of the monitoring equipment was aimed at the burial place of the bug, and the eyes of tens of millions of people also looked there.

There is a very common star system in that cosmic space. It was only after the Academy of Sciences inferred its submerged time a few years ago that this star system had its own name-the long ruled galaxy.

The galaxy is getting darker, and the star's color is also fading, and then darkening.

The officers and soldiers of the Star Chain Fleet have been sailing and living in the universe all year round, and have seen countless magnificent cosmic scenes, but not many people have seen such specific pictures of the star being swallowed by the sea of ​​dark objects.The communication system of the entire fleet has quieted down. Scientists from the Alliance Academy of Sciences and various research institutes are nervously preparing to collect data. Tens of millions of officers and soldiers are waiting for the last moment with complex emotions.

I do n’t know how long the star has completely darkened. It ’s not that it really no longer emits light, nor is it because of spores, but is blocked by the strange existence of the sea of ​​dark objects.

More than 7,000 warships are as quiet as tourists shocked by the sea, as if innumerable sighs are ringing.

At this time, a sigh rang out in the fleet's communication system.

Countless monitoring devices are directed somewhere in the universe.

Tens of millions of officers and men also looked there.

They cannot see there, but they know who is there.

The battleship Lieyang and the battleship Jiaowei faced the sea of ​​dark objects, and two people stood in the space at the intersection of the extension lines of the hull.

"If there is a creator, cockroaches must be his greatest work."

Shen Yunbu looked at the sea of ​​dark things in the distance and said, "Although my favorite is the water bear, it is too small to be observed and controlled remotely."

Jing Jiu said: "It is human."

Shen Yun buried thought for a while and found his argument justified.

Since the birth of mankind, I do not know how many disasters, floods, earthquakes, wars, viruses, have encountered, but they still survive steadily.

This civilization has unimaginable resilience. Every time it looks destroyed, it can be reborn from the ashes. The ancient civilization is a new product after a great disaster.

When the sea of ​​dark objects was about to engulf everything, that god lit countless stars, the local galaxy swept by an energy storm, and the radiation traces that can be observed now prove how terrible that storm is.Regardless of whether Star Gate, Qianjin 2 Base or Topaz 3, these more than 100 spare planets are not within the range of the star's burning, and are still being washed by those energy storms.The people hiding in the ground of these planets and those in the fleet are dead. Who can imagine that humans can appear again.In addition to the role played by that person, it has to be said that humans are really strong lives like cockroaches.

Now countless stars are disappearing again, but human beings are still alive, and they can be viewed as landscapes.

Shen Yunbu flicked a wine ball out of the pot with a flick of his finger, opened his mouth to bite off halfway, looked at the disappearing star, and said, "It's beautiful."

Jing Jiun gave a cry.
