Chapter 1: The Malice from the Universe

Since the "Noah" officially set sail, everything has been going on in an orderly manner.

Oliver likes to spend time alone in the captain's room when he has time. There is a unique astronomical observatory, a thin radiation-proof glass outside, is the bright galaxy.

The universe, dark and cold, mysterious and silent, contains endless secrets.

Humans, and how small and fragile creatures, a little hot will die of heat, cold will die of cold, a little less oxygen will suffocate, a little more oxygen will poison ... such a race, can really explore a corner of the universe?

An ordinary person, if not wearing an astronaut suit, in the vacuum of cosmic space, then his life is only 90 seconds at most. After a short 90 seconds, if there is no one to help, will inevitably die, the danger from the loss of pressure, lack of oxygen and sunlight radiation.

In 1965, the United States nasa manned spacecraft had an air leak incident. One unfortunate person remained conscious for 14 seconds in a near vacuum, which is roughly the time it takes for oxygen to reach the brain from the lungs.

It is a good thing that this brother was saved in time, otherwise death would have awaited him.

Even if Oliver is superhuman, it is impossible to live alone in the space of the universe. Superhumans, not immortals who can cross the void in metaphysical novels, are just smarter and stronger than humans. But this powerful is a limit, facing the entire universe, he can only live so many seconds.

Therefore, only the entire civilization to embrace the warmth, in order to survive in the universe.

This is how terrible malice ah ...Oliver looked at the starry sky outside the window, out of mind and dazed up.

He suddenly felt an emotion of the entire universe.

No, this is not malice, but a cold, is a cold. The universe does not carry any emotion, it is there, with its own laws of operation, will not be because of a civilization's prosperity, decline and any wavering.

The universe, too big, too old. The Milky Way alone has 220 billion stars, and deep-sky images based on the Hubble telescope show that there are two trillion galaxies similar to the Milky Way, not counting the star fields that are unobservable to humans.

Through the observation of the cosmic microwave background radiation found that our universe, has expanded 13.82 billion years, but the diameter of the universe is clearly greater than this value, the latest research that the diameter of the universe can reach 92 billion light years, or even larger. What a terrible astronomical number.

Only occupy a planet of human beings, to the entire universe, just a sand in the boundless desert, a water molecule in the vast ocean.

This piece of coldness came too suddenly, too powerfully, as if a monstrous tsunami, and kept pouring into Oliver's mind. Suddenly, Oliver's head was dizzy, feeling himself in a dark cosmic void, boundless solitude, loneliness, filled with countless dangers ...

Energy shortages, air leaks, mechanical failures, asteroid impacts ... any little disaster can make the human race reunion.

In this situation, as the highest leader of the ship, he has to worry about too much, this negative emotions all at once burst out ...Oliver only feel a cold as well as lonely.

Only the surrounding dots of starlight accompanied himself ... that is, what?

When close to these stars, Oliver only have a feeling of warmth, but unfortunately they are too small, at any time may be extinguished look.

Oliver struggled to get closer to one of the stars, and suddenly, he seemed to see a figure. It was an electrical engineer, an Earth Alliance man, whose name he still knew, called Jin Xiaojiang, who was repairing electrical equipment.

Immediately after that, he approached the star next to him, and it turned out to be Jin Xiaojiang's colleague, and the two of them were working together ...

What is this?

Oliver pondered and touched another larger, brighter star, it was Yuriko, who was quietly reading a book in her room. As if she sensed something, she looked left and right ...

Finally, he touched the largest, brightest star, and it was Calvin! He was locked up in prison sleeping, when he suddenly woke up and looked around at something.

Oliver did not find himself, perhaps because he was super human and not in this star field.

Although do not know exactly what is going on, he seems to understand a little. These stars represent all the humans ah, each one represents a person, but even the brightest one, it is too dark, too dark ...

Humans, too young ah, even if you can develop another thousand years of technology, and then face the entire universe, but also still small. This level of technology, even their own planets have not been completely conquered, how can step into the stars?

How much do humans know about the universe? How many extraterrestrial civilizations are there? How does the universe really exist?

I don't know, I don't know all of them. Humanity's knowledge of the universe is elementary and preliminary, and humans do not even have the means of controlled nuclear fusion.

But to venture into the stars like this, or the last remaining 50,000 remnants, the danger is self-evident. This is also to drive the duck on the shelf, there is no alternative ah. God knows what they will face in the next moment, it is the fear of the unknown ...

Oliver will also be afraid, will also be afraid, will also be confused, but all of it can not show. He is the leader of the entire ship, ah, since carrying the entire human race this burden, he has never thought to put down.

The burden on his shoulders is too heavy, the agricultural transformation program, the Noah program, which is not a complex and vast project? Day to day down, holding meetings, various rounds, access to information, to appease the people, but also constantly learning, his rest time shrinks again and again, often working continuously for a day or two, only to rest two or three hours.

This kind of pressure is too much, as Tarzan general, if another person has already collapsed. But Oliver could not break down, he had to resist.

"Report captain, I report to you ..."

"Captain Oliver, you approve this program ..."

"Mr. Howard, there are not enough parts over there ..."

All the engineers, soldiers, scientists, miners, builders, doctors, everyone was looking at him, he couldn't show his cowardly side, he had to be strong!

We humans, have to live ah ... he did not want to cause the extinction of humanity because of his own responsibility, he had to carry on. Even if it is pretend, but also in front of all mankind to pretend to be decent! He has to tell people that all people can survive, all people have hope!

But it's not enough. ... This starlight is too dim, it looks like it could go out at any time, so how can it survive?

Humanity needs a stronger, more intelligent, braver, more fearless leader.

Oliver suddenly made up his mind ... then, come on, let me become a stronger, wiser, braver, more fearless leader!

Once this idea came out, he suddenly felt like he had a physical body, a burning star burned up among the stars, the volume as well as brightness in the ordinary stars more than a billion times, although not illuminating the entire universe, but the nearby stars as if they were warmed up, emitting brighter light and heat ...

In this instant, all the people on the Noah ship seemed to feel something, coincidentally stop the work in hand and look in the same direction.

They felt that a sun had risen, a sun that could lead all people had risen. This feeling is very wonderful, as if hallucinating, but all people have this strange feeling.

Calvin, who was squatting in prison, suddenly became wide-eyed and rolled out of bed... It appeared, the Son of God had really appeared! This situation was really seen many times during the prophecy, surprisingly it really appeared, he was excited and could not contain himself.
