The Dragon That Devours the World

In 2457 of the old earth calendar, 4 years of the human calendar, the legendary colonial spacecraft "Farstrider" has gone away, and it will arrive at the target planet, the ideal blue planet in 140 years.

But for the human beings who are still in the solar system, the story does not stop far.

After that short-lived but far-reaching human unity, only a hundred years later, a generation that was originally shaped by suffering died, the voices longing for peace and rationality disappeared, and the new generation of divisions began to surge again. As the girl sighed a hundred years ago:

"What is the meaning of everything we are doing now? What is the meaning of our existence in this universe? What is the meaning of such endless wars? Such a spiral will only bring us infinite pain and final destruction. ."

In the asteroid belt of the Kuiper Belt of the solar system, countless space pirates, mining companies, and careerists gather in this chaotic world. This is a disorderly world without restraints, a paradise for illegal crimes.

In the 176 years since the birth of the Human Commonwealth and the 178th year of the human calendar, a new separatist force was born. This force, which claims to be the patron of the asteroids, relied on the huge advantages brought by the asteroid belt and fought with the fleet of the human complex .

After a lapse of two hundred years, mankind once again confronted his compatriots with swords.

Those warriors who embrace peace and ideals may have been scholars, artists, and explorers of outer space, but now their swords have to be swung to the compatriots they have sworn to protect.

"What has never changed? Ha, this **** war."

In the unprecedented battle that broke out on asteroid 769, facing the billions of warships scattered in space, the fleet commander held his white military cap and laughed at himself.

The human union collapsed, but not because of war, but because of the usurping of power by the army.

Those who gather because of profit will disperse because of profit. Those who gather because of righteousness will disperse because of righteousness.

The irony is that the human union born for the idea of ​​peace eventually collapsed because of the military's usurpation of power, because the military no longer wants to maintain peace under the stale framework. They need to unify the entire human race, no matter what the price is.

An era known as the "Great Crash" has begun.

On the wreckage of the human complex, various separatist forces have formed. The former human complex army overlord has occupied the earth, and numerous space habitats and planetary settlements have become the territory of these separatist forces. In this way, The melee was for more than two hundred years.

Until a ghost of the old age arrives again

In 428 years of the human calendar, an unknown signal appeared in the outer solar system.

"What the **** is this? It looks like a signal from an old antique? Unmanned machines from the old age?"

Feeling the signal received by the processor in his brain, the miner who was directing the unmanned mining machine on an asteroid was a little confused. A strange signal came from a distance of 76 light divisions from him.

Different from the popular subspace communication nowadays, this signal uses very ancient quantum communication

But soon he was no longer confused.

A weird spaceship appeared in front of him. Unlike the spaceship materials commonly used in the solar system, this spaceship does not look like a spaceship because many parts of it are not matter at all.

After entering the space age, metal has been officially eliminated, and humans have begun to use various topological materials. These topological substances that exhibit various strange properties at the quantum level have become mankind's new favorites. Compared with metals that have extremely high strength and performance in only three-dimensional space, these substances with an eleven-dimensional structure on the quantum level are even more bizarre and can withstand all the weird requirements of the space age.

But no topological substance can be compared with the weird spacecraft in front of you

Many parts of it are not matter, but the forces and waves excited by the position generator. It’s not so much a spacecraft, it’s better to say it’s a stand generator that moves in space. Its almost transparent frame can even allow miners to see the internal structure, see the strange devices of different sizes, and seem to be floating. The bright-eyed, confident little girl standing next to me.

This spaceship is like a large toy with only a little internal structure made and then rendered with light effects elsewhere.

But the powerful distortion of the space-time structure caused by it, as long as you look at the weird rays of light passing by the spacecraft, you can understand that this spacecraft is not as fragile as it seems.

"Hope Star First Fleet reconnaissance aircraft in the first distant star area of ​​the Human Commonwealth greets you, citizen, please assist me in contacting the nearest administrative agency of the Human Commonwealth. I will bring the sincere sincereness of the first distant star hope star of the Human Commonwealth. Regards."

The little girl raised her hand to pay tribute to an old-time human coalition military, and said in a tender voice, seemingly serious.

miner:? ? ?

And after a moment of communication.

"Eh? The Union of People is disbanded?!"

On that day, a sensational news spread throughout the solar system. More than four hundred years ago, the legendary colonizing spacecraft "Farstrider" that colonized the planet Ross 128b 11 light years away, now their fleet is back.

According to this fleet, it took Farstriders 145 years to reach the planet of Ross 128b and named it "Hope" according to the pre-preparation.

It is indeed a very suitable planet for humans to live in, but it is also very dangerous. The many strange plants and animals made the first colonists very embarrassed. After 100,000 fertilized eggs developed into embryos, it took more than two hundred years for the colonists to finally gain a foothold on that planet.

At the same time, they also got a lot of inspiration from those strange animals and plants. Compared with the humans of the solar system, the colonists are far behind in many technologies such as communication and combat, but their spacecraft have completely exploded the humans of the solar system.

The speed of the spacecraft that used to be 7 speeds of light is already the mechanism of the speed of human spacecraft. It is believed that only "far travellers" who can accelerate unlimitedly in the void can do it. Today, most spacecrafts in the solar system are only 2 speeds of light. about. But now, the speed of Hope Star's human warship can easily reach 20 light speed, and in extreme cases it can reach 30 light speed.

Precisely because of this, after gaining a foothold, Hope Star dispatched a large fleet non-stop, hoping to trade with the human complex.

After knowing the news of the collapse of the human complex, the Hope Star Fleet staying on the periphery of the solar system finally decided not to enter the solar system and only conduct conservative trade transactions to avoid conflicts with various separate forces.

An undeveloped livable planet!

The human beings trapped in the solar system seem to see new hope. Under the surging of the dark tide, the human beings who have been fighting each other for more than two hundred years finally remembered the call from space again.

But on the other side

In a certain secret room, the commander of the Hope Star Fleet, who is now well-known in the solar system, is sitting in his chest, silently looking at the old man in front of him.

Although the old man is old and over a hundred years old, no one dares to despise his authority. As the head of the former human union army, in this world, people with more power than him no longer exist.

Two seemingly unrelated people are secretly meeting in this secret room at this moment, which is absolutely beyond everyone's imagination.

The old man looked at the young commander in front of him, and the young commander also looked at the old man in front of him. The two sides looked at each other.

Suddenly, the old man chanted in a low voice, and his mouth was chanting the old human language commonly used in the era of the human union.

"The gods rejoice, the gods rejoice"

"You are the one who knows the destiny, you are the one who sees the secret"

The young commander picked it up, and it was in the same language. Although some pronunciation and intonation were different, the charm was exactly the same.

"You need to remember"

Looking at the young commander in front of him, the old man paused, and then the old man and the young commander chanted the same passage together.

"Things that cannot be said and cannot be said, voices that cannot be heard and cannot be heard, things that cannot be seen and cannot be seen"

"On Hope Star, how many people still know the secret."

"Very few, only thirty people including me."

The young commander lowered his head and said solemnly.

The old man was silent, then murmured.

"Time has changed so many things. The ancestor designed and built the Farstrider back then. He knew that he could not wait for you, so he let his descendants wait for you. My great grandfather waited all his life, but did not wait until my great grandfather waited. I didn’t wait until my grandfather waited all my life, until he died, he didn’t wait until there was still my father. Before he died, he clung to my hand and looked at me tightly. Although he didn’t say it clearly, I knew him. what you want to say."

"I thought I might not be able to wait any longer, but I didn't expect that I would wait for you at the age of a handful of bones."

The young commander was silent, he didn't know what to say.

Seeing the silence of the young commander, the old man shook his head.

"Since you have taken root and sprouted in the distance, there are some things that have been decided a long time ago, maybe it's time to do it."

In the 435 years of the human calendar, 7 years after the departure of the Hope Star Fleet, the first star-killing weapon made by humans in the solar system was born, and its target was the earth.

On the spaceship, the old man opened his eyes wide and stared at the planet in front of him that he ordered to destroy, the hometown of mankind.

There are more than 100 billion humans living there, which is the core and most important place for the hegemon. But the old man understood that even if the planet was destined to be destroyed from the beginning, it must be destroyed. The whole meaning of the birth of the overlord is not to occupy the planet, but to destroy it in the distant future.

But wanting to destroy this planet means that the entire solar system will be affected, even Mars, it is uncertain whether it will be habitable in the future, so humans must go to outer galaxies.

In the four hundred years since the birth of the human consortium, and in the nine hundred years from the 2000s to the present, the ultimate goal passed down in the hearts of generations of monastic masters has always been the same. For this goal

"Even at all costs"

That year, when his father passed away, he squeezed his hand tightly, and his old eyes looked at him tightly, only fierce in his eyes.

Father didn't say anything, but he knew everything.

There is no way to do a large-scale evacuation. The more people know, the greater the risk of infection and erosion. No one knows when the planet will wake up, so it can only be "whatever it takes."

In the face of anti-matter munitions weighing 80 million tons, even the earth could not resist this huge energy release exceeding 1^32. The crust with a thickness of more than 17 kilometers was roughly torn apart, and the hot core inside was exposed. The strong gravitational wave vibrations can still be clearly felt even in space hundreds of millions of miles away.

The spacecraft was shaking, and the faces of some people changed.

There are too many scattered planet fragments, and no one knows whether a fragment will fly over in the next moment. On other planets, this sense of shock has also formed earthquakes of varying scales.

At this moment, even residents living on Mars can easily see the thrown matter in the sky.

The hot liquid metal core that had been stripped of its appearance was like a water ball in a violent shock. It was torn and stripped by the explosion, twisted weirdly, and eventually dissociated into several parts, suspended in the air quietly, waiting for an unknown number of years. After cooling.

No one can hear the sound from the earth, but everyone will be terrified in the face of such a terrifying force that has never been seen before.

But the old man couldn't feel this kind of fear. All he could feel was exhaustion and relief. The hand that had been clenched was now loosened.

It was too long, and the fate that lasted for dozens of generations finally came to an end in his hands.

"Master, we have received news that the other people in the overlord are ready to arrest you."

Behind him, a human being in a gray robe.

"I know."

"Then do you want?"

"It's no longer necessary."

The grey-robed man behind him was about to say something, but the old man just replied indifferently.

It is no longer necessary.

"The mission of the Priory has ended, and we have no meaning to exist."

He said calmly.

Outside the spaceship, a group of spaceships vaguely surrounded him, and a powerful gravity trap had been deployed to prevent him from escaping.

He knew what was about to welcome him, and destroyed the earth with his own hands, which meant that the foundation of the existence of the overlord was almost removed. Those people were naturally furious, but isn't the meaning of the existence of the overlord just like this?

"My death is right, but my death will make mankind completely get rid of fear, the nightmare that has existed since the beginning of our birth. Without the earth, mankind will no longer have a home, and we will be a group of wanderers. Orphans, but we will use the stars as our home and trek among the stars."

Staring at the earth shattered into several pieces of debris, there was a bright light in the old man's cloudy vision. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

"I am no longer the son of the earth, I will become the son of the stars"

On the chessboard of Crystal Sky, the fuzzy human figure struggled. In the end, it resolutely changed a knife in its hand, and then cut off its root sticking to the chessboard in one fell swoop.

On the chessboard, the black and white chess pieces disappeared, leaving only the black and white kings alone. It is no longer glued to this chessboard. I don't know how many years, the chess pieces on this chessboard are finally no longer chess pieces, it is free.

Floating in the crystal sky, the fuzzy humanoid hovered a few times, and then plunged into the stars of the universe.

"This this is"

Looking at the newborn baby, his father's face was full of horror.

The ignorant baby closed his eyes tightly, but numerous lightning entangled its body, causing the newborn baby to float in the air out of thin air.

That year, a kind of wonderful power began to appear among human beings. Some babies were born with various strange abilities, and this power was eventually called "psychic energy."
