200 Years

"So, the reform of life span is necessary. The current common thinking is that it is divided into two different blocks. Ordinary people need to learn to manage the negative effects of their own genes in their first life, and learn to be more careful. More knowledge, cultivate a firm will. The average life expectancy is about five or six hundred years."

Zhang Yuan frowned and said, "Then I will experience all kinds of life..."

"Extraordinary people can choose to survive for more time and make more contributions. In short, if you can't get this technology by yourself, you can go to the trading market to buy some. Don't we have 1,500 amoeba points on hand anymore? ?"

"Basically, the future direction of development is like this."

"But I think that even if all the people are Transcendents, there is still a big gap from the fifth-level civilization..."

What is this gap? Everyone here is a transcendent, and they can't help but fall into deep thought. Yes, there is still a gap, and the gap is huge, and human beings must recognize the gap in this respect.

The transcendent is not an end, but a starting point. Towards the starting point of this chasm.

"From a technological perspective, Level 4 civilizations have already begun to come into contact with space technology. Curvature technology is a type of space technology. Every step forward will take no one knows how long it will take."

"The space technology possessed by the fifth-level civilization will be more complex, such as artificial gravity, anti-gravity, subspace communications, subatomic materials, etc. Now we can get a glimpse of some details, but we don't know what to do."

"But the gap at the ideological level is even bigger..."

Everyone is silent, everyone knows that this kind of gap does not refer to the gap in technology, which can be made up through hard work, but the gap in social level.

So what if the supernatural beings of the whole people can be compared with the original power of modifying genes?

Don't marathon runners get tired when they run? of course! They also have to overcome the poles in their bodies again and again, overcome the past with a strong will, every run must be like this, every run will be painful...

In the same way, extraordinary people also sink during the second screening. A thing like will, no matter how strong it is, will always wear out.

But now, the fifth-level civilization is directly activated, the more you run, the happier you are, and it has always been able to make people willing to run to death!

There is absolutely no way to compare.

"So..." Zhang Yuan sighed, "We need to find a truly great goal and imprint it into our own genes."

"Otherwise, after a hundred thousand years or a million years, we still won't be able to... Don't overestimate yourself, we still have to take this step. Not only do we have to go, but we should move forward firmly."

Everyone was silent, thoughtful, and then gradually felt relieved and nodded in agreement.

…

The due hibernation period soon arrived, and people were divided into 20 batches in total. In this way, the time that can be felt during the 200-year voyage is only about 10 years.

In fact, it is okay not to hibernate. These motherships are fully responsible for scientific research and carry the daily life of a large number of people. For now, there are still many scientific research projects that have not been completed. These tasks require human researchers to advance.

But you must know that these six motherships are almost isolated from each other during the process of moving at super-light speed!

Although there are fuzzy signals to communicate with, the fuzzy signals are only fuzzy signals. They can no longer play games online, visit each other, etc. like before. These are absolutely impossible!

After being isolated for two hundred years without much communication, people will become unfamiliar with each other. Who knows what trouble will happen?

Maybe people in a certain mothership will suddenly rebel and suddenly want to engage in "liberal democracy"...

In this way, in order to unify time and reduce trouble, hibernation has become a necessity.

"Goodbye, sweet dream."

"Good dream!"

After Zhang Yuan said goodbye to his wife, he lay down in the hibernation barn and closed his eyes.

He is no longer unfamiliar with hibernation, but this time he seems to be looking forward to the future...

…

One hundred years later, Zhang Yuan woke up from hibernation and found that the entire fleet was docked near a planet for routine maintenance.

Some scientific researchers are arresting the local aborigines. These weak creatures without any scientific thinking look a bit like the legendary "little devil". They have bat-like wings and have developed their own language, but no writing.

Such intelligent life is not much different from a grasshopper in front of humans.

Even these indigenous people themselves are capturing indigenous people and selling them to humans so that they can obtain food and metal tools. It's that simple.

Humans will even teach them some basic knowledge, such as mathematics and writing.

"Are you finally out of the star-intensive area now?" Zhang Yuan asked a colleague next to him, and he has long been familiar with this arrest phenomenon.

Intelligent life is very valuable in the universe, especially biological research and brain research, which need to provide more knowledge through these diverse samples.

And with virtual world technology, being able to send indigenous creatures into it doesn't have much moral burden.

The staff member said with emotion, "Yes, the collision of two neutron stars swept across the surrounding area of ​​50 light years. But out of this range, we can see a lot of life again."

"Now we have sailed 210 light-years. This is the first planet with intelligent life we ​​have encountered. Because this planet has a lot of radioactive elements, the native organisms themselves have a strong ability to resist radiation, and the mutation speed very fast."

"We also want to do some biological research."

This matter itself is quite interesting, the surface of the planet is filled with a blue-green light, and many plants here can actually glow at night!

Many people simply take it as a chance to travel...

Zhang Yuan also joined in and personally investigated this planet, which was regarded as an additional adventure in the journey.

…

Five years passed in a blink of an eye, and Zhang Yuan once again entered hibernation...

After 92 years, when he woke up again, he found that the entire fleet had gradually left the state of superluminal speed and was about to reach its destination!

Tabby's star, that dim star, seemed so close at hand!

He couldn't help feeling, "Curvature sailing is really fast!"

In the past, using cosmic strings to navigate, human beings would not be able to travel 400 light-years away.

Since people plan to be active in this trading market for a long time, almost the entire population wakes up from hibernation and begins normal communication activities.
