More than two hundred light-years away from Yan Planet, a spherical spaceship was quietly hidden in the gravitational orbit of a star. It was always in a state of celestial motion relative to Yan Planet, which was more than two hundred light-years away, maintaining the strong radiation of the star.
In the spherical spaceship, an old Yan Planet lifeform finally died.
Before it died, like the previous generations of captains, it earnestly warned the next generation of captains that the spaceship that had asked for help had already escaped, and the legendary lifeform and the first-generation spaceship would return.
It was unknown how many generations had passed, but it had always been the same. Even the content had not changed in the slightest.
In the beginning, when it was the most difficult time, this was the only hope for them to persist, but as time passed, it became more and more hopeless.
In this generation, the last old captain who held on to the ancient hope finally died, and a fierce debate finally broke out in the spaceship.
"Many years ago, a total of three spaceships escaped. One followed the ancient channel to search for hope, and the other, like us, hid in a place that even we do not know. Too much time has passed, and we have long lost contact with them. It is very likely that we are the only ones left."
A young Yan Planet Alien briefly explained the history that all the participants knew in the heated debate and continued to say, "We can't wait any longer.
The legend of the ancient channel has passed for tens of millions of years, and the truth has long been buried in the long passage of time. Even if it is true, that lifeform and the first-generation spaceship that followed it into space should have long disappeared. If they wanted to return, they would have returned a long time ago. They have not appeared until now, and they should not appear again in the future. "
As soon as its voice trailed off, another older Yan Planet Alien who opposed it said, "Don't forget, ever since we encountered that interstellar civilization, we have been confined to a narrow space. Our technology has stagnated, and we will always be defeated. In the endless nebula war, we were finally defeated to the point of extinction. If not for the fact that they were extremely interested in the technology left behind by that lifeform millions of years ago, I am afraid that we would not have been able to escape!"
The young Yan Planet Alien who had just spoken asked rhetorically, "Do you mean that they deliberately let us escape? This has been said for countless years, but at least they have not found us so far. "
The older Yan Planet Alien said, "To us, it may be countless years, but to that interstellar civilization, it may only be a brief stop on their distant journey."
The young alien retorted, "In terms of speed, our spaceship is not slower than them. They can definitely stay in the spaceship longer than us!"
The older Planet Yan sighed and said, "I am talking about the cosmology of time, not just the length of time. In terms of the cosmology, they were far ahead of us. They left their home planet a long time ago, and before the war, we were still exploring the galaxies around Planet Yan."
"But that doesn't mean they can catch up to us. Our speed is always our advantage, but if we wait any longer, once they crack the core technology of the spaceships they captured, we won't have this advantage anymore. When that happens, we won't be able to leave even if we want to." The young Yan Star said.
The older Yan Planet Alien still objected, "Back then, we had used up all the technology left behind by that powerful being. Only now do we understand how terrifying and powerful it is. Our ancestors were laughably lucky to have encountered a civilization with such advanced technology. They are our enemies, and the interstellar civilization is just a small existence before them. I believe that they will not disappear, and they will definitely come back. Only they can truly defeat an enemy that we can never defeat!"
The young lifeform sneered, "You are the laughable ones. The spaceship that requested reinforcements has been missing for so many years, and you are still counting on an illusory legend from thousands of years ago. I have also heard that when it left, it told the ancient sages that it would not come back. As you said, it has already given our ancestors powerful technology. We can't be babies forever. We should learn to walk on our own."
The older Yan Planet Alien was not angry at the young lifeform's sarcasm. He only said helplessly, "Go? Where can we go? You are too unrealistic. That interstellar civilization may be lurking nearby, waiting for us to come out on our own. If they wanted to completely destroy us, we would have been destroyed long ago. In order to keep the core of our most advanced spaceship intact, they let us look like we escaped and survived, but in reality … "
The young Yan Planet Alien interrupted him. "Then we can only wait, wait, wait forever, wait for an ancient lifeform that we can't even identify? Wait until the end of all our lives, until the last Yan Planet Alien dies? Everyone, we can't wait any longer. We have waited for too long. It's time to find a way to save ourselves. The universe is so big, and the starry sky is so vast. I don't believe that we can't find a place to hide! "
The older Yan Planet Alien firmly disagreed. He spoke on behalf of the faction that was dwindling in number. "Everyone, not long ago in the spaceship, we received a radiation signal that Yan Planet was dismembered by the enemy hundreds of years ago. The moment it was dismembered, some mysterious symbols appeared. The life from thousands of years ago might have come for it. Now that it has appeared, we believe that the powerful civilization from thousands of years ago will definitely return!"
There was a lot of discussion in the conference cabin. This signal was received not long ago, but it had been more than two hundred years since it actually happened.
Many people suspected that the powerful civilization that had left behind such terrifying technology came for the mysterious symbols that appeared the moment Yan Planet was dismembered.
If not for this change, this meeting would not have been held at all. As soon as the old captain died, he directly escaped according to his private, semi-public plan to find an ideal and safe place.
The young Yan Planet Alien was already prepared for this. He said with certainty, "This is a deception, a signal deception. In the long war between us and them, we have been deceived by them like this many times. Although I and everyone else present did not participate in that long and tragic space war, there are detailed historical records in our spaceships. You can easily find such incidents everywhere if you flip through them! "
His words were powerful and irrefutable. The evidence was written all over the history of the war, and this period of history was the most painful page for the Yan Planet Alien. They had never won a war, and they were always defeated.
After the first spaceship left, relying on the technology left behind by that powerful civilization, countless sages of that era reflected on it. Many years later, due to various factors, the descendants of that generation of crew, their ancestors, finally flew into the starry sky.
The vast universe, the silent galaxy, let them gallop and shine alone. It was not until they encountered the strange civilization of Yan Planet that they experienced and understood the cruelty of the starry sky and their insignificance.
The older Yan Planet Alien could not prove that the signal captured by the passive detector this time was not another deception. It had tried its best to stop the spaceship from embarking on a new and uncertain path of escape. However, the Yan Planet Alien in the spaceship was tired of endless waiting, and they no longer had any hope for the eternal legend.
A new escape became the only choice. After the meeting, the "future plan" that had been semi-public for a long time was activated.
They hid in a corner more than two hundred light years away from Yan Planet. Other than the other two spaceships that were missing, they were the only "free" Yan Planet Alien.
The other Yan Planet Alien had either been killed or captured. These three spaceships were built with the most advanced imitation core of the Yan Planet Alien. They were the three spaceships that the enemy wanted the most.
On the day they escaped from their hiding place, everyone, even the few who held on to their beliefs, was very nervous and expectant. They hoped that they could succeed.
These people were all born long after the long war. They were born in an environment of hiding, facing the pressure of genocide. Every day, they lived in fear of being discovered by the interstellar civilization. They only survived until today because of the speed of the spaceship. Together with the other two spaceships, they carried the last hope of all Yan Planet Alien.
They chose a time when the natural conditions were extremely bad. With the help of a large-scale flare of the star, they quietly lurked in the chaotic radiation, rushed out of the orbit, got rid of gravity, and accelerated into deep space.
Everything seemed to be going smoothly. The fluctuations of the star seemed to cover their traces, and the interstellar civilization did not discover them.
However, after a few days of happiness, they gradually found that they had fallen into an unknown giant net, as if it had been woven for many years, waiting for them to break in and be detected by the giant net.
Then, they finally experienced the helplessness of their ancestors in the battleship war that was recorded in history!
All kinds of reaction weapons in the starry sky quickly approached the position where they appeared. There was no way to escape.
The spaceships gradually lost control, and they could not figure out what kind of attack they had suffered!
The young Yan Planet Alien who spoke in the meeting not long ago gradually fell into despair, and the older Yan Planet Alien sighed deeply.
The enemy's spaceship had not yet arrived, but they had already become the prey of the giant net. It was only a matter of time.
Their spaceships gradually lost control, turning around and flying in the direction of Yan Planet.
They gradually fell into despair and deeply regretted their decision!
They never thought that they would be discovered and captured by the enemy as soon as they appeared. They had no power to resist.
They were not the kind of race that had just entered the starry sky, but they still ended up like this. It was a pity that the real interstellar civilization was so powerful and had existed for so long.
Yan Planet gradually appeared in front of them. In despair and self-blame, they suddenly found that the control of their spaceships had been taken away by a third powerful force!
Then, they were shocked to receive a signal from one of the other two escaping spaceships: We are back. We have found the powerful life of the ancient civilization! (To be continued.)
