581 A Bad Feeling, Heading to Dark Star
If one day, a more advanced civilization came from Dark Star, how would mankind protect themselves?
“Don’t worry about that. We can keep a few people as hostages.” A civilization that had developed to such a high level like theirs should value the lives of their companions greatly.” Wu Mo’s words revealed his deep consideration.
From his point of view, advanced civilizations placed more importance on every member of their society. They would not be willing to sacrifice anyone and pay a heavy price.
Thus, when he sent out the s.p.a.ceships to partic.i.p.ate in the war on the planet, he would naturally keep a few Dark Star people on Earth, just in case.
In this discussion, Wu Mo’s answer revealed his wit and deliberation, which made the researchers present feel a little relieved.
Their brows gradually relaxed as they were rendered speechless by Wu Mo’s reply.
They couldn’t find any loopholes in Wu Mo’s answer and could only accept it silently.
However, deep in their hearts, they had a bad feeling. It was as if things were happening behind the scenes, which would lead to something big in the future.
Despite that, they could not determine the source of this feeling, so they could only bury this uneasiness deep in their hearts.
‘I hope everything goes smoothly,’ Zheng Jun prayed silently in his heart. The other researchers also had the same thoughts.
Thus, Wu Mo and the extraterrestrial representatives from Dark Star clinked gla.s.ses and discussed. They decided that in half a month, Dark Star would lead three human s.p.a.ceships to an unknown place two light-years away from Earth.
To humans, this was an unprecedented voyage. However, in the eyes of the Dark Star people, this was just a visit to their neighbors in the galaxy.
Other than the Dark Star, there was also Fita, which was further away. Their existence was like a deep black hole that hid the endless unknown.
At this moment, Wu Mo’s biggest challenge was to complete the construction of three s.p.a.ceships in half a month.
Due to the confidentiality of the technology, he didn’t plan to let these aliens witness the process of building the s.p.a.ceships.
He hid himself behind the system and began to ponder over the top-notch chip technology for the s.p.a.ceships. This time, the production required a higher level of technology.
Wu Mo had put in a lot of effort. With the popularity of the three great potions around the world, the points in the system had also reached a full state.
Wu Mo was full of confidence. He even felt that in the near future, he might be able to use the mysterious dark matter.
The equipment for dark matter production was one of the greatest items in the system, and Wu Mo was not in a hurry to touch that ceiling.
Once he activated it, all the other production lines would have to stop, so he chose to move forward steadily.
A few high-level chips appeared in Wu Mo’s hand.
These tiny chips contained hundreds of billions of integrated circuits that could process complex information from all directions in an instant.
Such a chip was the core of a s.p.a.ceship.
With it, Wu Mo dared to send s.p.a.ceships to Dark Star.
‘Such a top-notch chip should be able to adapt to that environment, right?’ Wu Mo guessed in his heart.
…
Just like that, the day came, and the leaders of the various countries in the Planetary Alliance gathered together.
They personally witnessed the three s.p.a.ceships follow Dark Star’s s.p.a.ceships and charge into the vast sea of stars. They were going to partic.i.p.ate in the legendary war.
Mankind had already entered the galactic era.
“Ugh, my old bones keep giving me a bad feeling. My eyelids are twitching violently as if something’s about to happen…”
An old man rubbed his forehead, and his face full of worry.
“Pfft, stop spouting nonsense. This is a major moment for mankind. A new era is about to begin, how can you spout nonsense?” Another leader widened his eyes in displeasure.
“I think your worries are groundless. This era seems like an unbelievable dream. In just a short year, such earth-shattering changes have occurred. Your heart can’t take it anymore.”
The tone of a third leader carried a hint of antic.i.p.ation and worry.
One after another, the leaders of the countries whispered to each other.
Their faces were filled with indescribable emotions.
All these changes happened so fast that they felt like a dream. The rapid development made people feel like they were riding a rocket.
China had been the first to announce the development of a controllable nuclear fusion reactor.
It was as if human civilization had taken a big step forward.
Then, other countries followed in the footsteps of China, and the world underwent earth-shaking changes.
Just a year ago, people were still saving electricity and drinking water due to the shortage of human resources. Those were real problems.
Now, those problems were almost non-existent.
In today’s human society, there was no such thing as energy conservation anymore because the energy source had already become infinite. There was no loss or pollution, so why should they save it?
In the past, conservation was mainly to prevent pollution and due to high production costs and energy shortage.
Now, however, these problems did not exist. People could enjoy life without any worries.
The “waste” here was not a bad habit because it would only be considered “waste” if people could not bear to lose it.
Now that people had sufficient energy, they could completely enjoy this “wastage.”
When China successfully found the solution and began ma.s.s production, the planet’s civilization rose to another level.
All the countries in the world felt that the human race was developing too fast.
No one knew if this rapid development could continue.
However, looking back carefully, every key breakthrough had been led by China. Even the decision to use the s.p.a.ceship to enter the Taal Nebula and explore outer s.p.a.ce had seemingly been proposed by China.
All of this could not be separated from Chief Engineer Wu’s wise guidance!
At this moment, the leaders of the various countries partic.i.p.ating in the Planetary Alliance looked up into the distance.
A few tiny figures on the huge launchpad caught their eyes.
These were all extraterrestrial lifeforms from Dark Star. They bid farewell to the humans and stepped into the s.p.a.ceship sent by Dark Star.
Of course, they didn’t all leave. A few of their companions were left behind on this planet. This was also an agreement that both sides had reached long ago.
After that, Wu Mo skillfully operated the three s.p.a.ceships and prepared for a concurrent takeoff.
It was a magnificent scene that transcended the era. Humanity would finally reveal its existence to the universe!
In the context of the war, these three s.p.a.ceships might seem insignificant.
After all, the famous director, George Lucas, had already allowed viewers to experience the tragic and thrilling Star Wars in his movies.
These three s.p.a.ceships were probably just cannon fodder.
However, no matter what, this was humanity’s first step into s.p.a.ce. Perhaps it would become a springboard to lead the entire planet to shine in the universe.
As the leader of scientific research on this planet, Wu Mo felt a little excited because he knew that there was a live broadcast of this event across the globe!
The three s.p.a.ceships were about to take off, but what the people did not know was that they would follow the people of Dark Star into s.p.a.ce.
People only knew that one of the four s.p.a.ceships was different from the other three.
However, they did not know the exact situation.
