Volume 3 Chapter 96: Resisting Human Tyranny
1000 years after the voyage began, the immortal ship Penglai broke away from the fleet and patrolled the Milky Way.
Anyone who disobeys the orders of the Pangu tribe will be punished.
At first, the fairy ship was just a ship of about 100,000 meters in size.
However, after tens of thousands of years of development, the fairy ship Penglai has continued to expand and is now as big as a planet.
In addition, every immortal on the immortal ship has the power to cross the universe and destroy the world.
Often, one immortal is enough to suppress an ordinary civilized clan.
Even advanced civilizations had to bow down to the intimidation of the billions of immortals on the fairy ship Penglai.
So over the past ten thousand years, even after humans left, it still subdued the advanced civilizations of the entire galaxy and abided by the rules set before humans left.
At the very least, they dare not openly violate human rules.
Until these advanced civilizations finally couldn't bear it anymore and decided to form a joint fleet to attack the fairy ship Penglai.
First, they ambushed on the route that the fairy ship Penglai had to take a hundred years ago, and then used a large number of space bombs to disrupt the space within a dozen light years around the fairy ship Penglai, forming space turbulence that was impossible to navigate.
The route of the Immortal Ship Penglai was completely blocked, trapping the Immortal Ship Penglai in the space turbulence.
After confirming that the fairy ship Penglai could no longer escape, they launched a siege of the fairy ship that lasted for a hundred years.
To this day, the battle continues.
After Mu Xiyue's introduction, Lin Xu suddenly understood.
"So the space turbulence formed after the explosion of this space bomb is to block the immortal ship Penglai."
"Yes, at that time, the fairy ship Penglai discovered that an advanced civilization was illegally discarding the residue after use of chaotic energy, causing the destruction of a remote galaxy. There was also a new civilization in that galaxy that had just begun to embark on space travel." Mu Xiyue explained.
"Disorder and filth? Therefore, one of the rules set by humans is that it is not allowed to randomly discard disorder and filth." Lin Xu immediately understood something.
"Yes, when advanced civilizations casually discard disordered filth, it often causes disasters to lower civilizations. It will make the universe even more chaotic and even accelerate the demise of the universe. This will in turn bring disasters to the advanced civilization itself. Unfortunately, intelligent life is always short-sighted, and advanced civilizations are no exception."
“So even though advanced civilizations know that carelessly discarding disordered filth will eventually harm their own interests, short-term gains still make them inclined to discard disordered filth without processing it. After all, processing disordered filth is also a huge expense for advanced civilizations.”
Lin Xu listened to Mu Xiyue's story and gradually understood something.
It’s just like in the 21st century, when people wanted to discharge nuclear waste into the sea.
These are all short-sighted and fatal behaviors.
But unfortunately, such behavior is often the norm for intelligent life.
When one galaxy is destroyed, we can develop another one. Anyway, there are always endless galaxies in the universe.
As for something as far away as the destruction of the universe, why bother thinking about it now?
But now, there is a civilization that has forced a rule on them, prohibiting them from doing this in the future.
Although they cannot defeat the other party, most of them will comply.
But it would be strange if I were happy in my heart.
Then one day, that civilization disappeared, but its thugs were still there.
The thugs are quite powerful, so many advanced civilizations can only bow their heads temporarily.
Until they finally decided they couldn't stand it anymore.
"Were these advanced civilizations so obedient from the beginning? They must have experienced a lot." Lin Xu continued to ask.
"Do you see the starry sky on the other side? Don't you see that it's very empty there ?" Nanorobots surged around Mu Xiyue, and a holographic projection of the starry sky appeared in front of Lin Xu. That was exactly where the earth was at this moment.
On one side was the space turbulence that surrounded the fairy ship Penglai. Several galaxies were destroyed, making the entire universe seem a little empty.
But what Mu Xiyue was pointing at was the starry sky background on the other side. The empty area there was countless times more serious than the space turbulence on this side.
It's indeed a bit too empty.
There is nothing within tens or hundreds of light years.
Normally, there will definitely be quite a few galaxies.
"Indeed, what happened?" Lin Xu asked puzzledly.
"It is said that this place was not like this before. There were hundreds of galaxies gathered in this star field, and it seemed to be the sphere of influence of a certain advanced civilization ten thousand years ago. It was a very prosperous galaxy."
"Why is it gone now?"
"Later they were cleared out by the Pangu clan." Mu Xiyue said lightly.
For a moment, Lin Xu didn't even know what expression to use.
"Why?" But he asked anyway.
"That advanced civilization refused to abide by human rules and threw the residue of Chaos Energy everywhere."
"It's messy, disorderly and dirty." Lin Xu nodded.
"Yes, after causing many remote galaxies to fall into cosmic disasters, they were completely destroyed. So the Pangu Clan directly cleared out the most prosperous galaxies of this advanced civilization as a punishment. After losing these elite areas, that advanced civilization also disappeared in the long river ."
For a moment, Lin Xu felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with what humans did, so he felt relieved.
"Then is there no advanced civilization with a long-term vision?" Lin Xu thought about it. The Milky Way is so big, it is impossible that all the advanced civilizations are short-sighted.
"Of course there are. Therefore, the rules set by the Pangu tribe are also supported by a considerable number of advanced civilizations. It is also because of the support of these advanced civilizations that the Pangu tribe was able to accurately know who violated the rules and discarded the chaos energy residues, and then punish them. It is because of the intelligence provided by advanced civilizations in secret that they support the sustainable development strategy."
"But even so, now that the Pangu Clan has left for ten thousand years, when the Allied Fleet and the Immortal Fleet go to war, they will not stand up and support the Immortal Fleet. At most, they will not help either side."
Mu Xiyue said all this with a calm expression, and it was obvious that she had never placed her hopes on the help of some advanced civilization.
After all, for civilization, its own interests are the most important.
"Then who are you looking for help?" Lin Xu asked.
"Pangu clan."
"Are there other Pangu members here?" Lin Xu asked in surprise.
"The Tree King Ark Avalon was originally a God-given elf tribe that left the fleet together with the fairy ship Penglai to patrol the Milky Way."
"Avalon." The face of a curry stick girl flashed through Lin Xu's mind. So is what humans are doing this time referring to a meme from the ACG game?
However, the myth of Avalon does exist in reality, so Lin Xu is not sure whether it is a joke this time.
"A hundred years ago, before the Immortal Ship Penglai was trapped, it met the Tree King Ark in this area. The two sides held a social event and then separated. If the direction is correct, we should be able to find them. So the Immortal Ship sent a large number of rescue personnel to search in the direction where the Tree King Ark left. I am just one of them." Mu Xiyue explained.
With Mu Xiyue's explanation, Lin Xu finally gradually figured out the current situation he was facing.
As for the question of whether or not to rescue the fairy ship Penglai, it goes without saying that it must be rescued.
But the question is how to rescue.
Lin Xu doesn’t think that the current Earth could have the power that humans had ten thousand years ago to overwhelm countless advanced civilizations in the entire Milky Way.
Not to mention the number of humans, even the technological level of the human fleet at that time was visibly higher than that of the Earth today.
Not to mention anything else, the third-generation nanorobot that Mu Xiyue carries with her is more advanced than the third-generation nanorobots on Earth today.
After all, their nanorobots can replicate themselves.
Lin Xu also asked Mu Xiyue for some of these nanorobots, and Yinghuo analyzed them.
Yinghuo's conclusion is that it is not feasible to transform and upgrade the nanorobots on Earth with only samples but no technical data.
Lin Xu could directly use his authority to control some of these nanorobots and incorporate them into his body, but Yinghuo was worried about the safety of incorporating these nanorobots that were not produced by himself into his body.
Although there is no danger in theory, Yinghuo does not recommend Lin Xu to risk his life.
Then there is Mu Xiyue's personal subspace, and various details show that it is far more advanced than the current technological level on Earth.
Therefore, the result of Lin Xu and Yinghuo's private discussion was that it would be better to reach humanity's next stop first, obtain the technical data left behind by humanity, and upgrade the current technological level of the Earth.
Then rescue.
Lin Xu didn't know why, but he now assumed that he would be able to find the technical information he needed at every stop of human beings.
What’s even more outrageous is that it can actually be found.
Lin Xu no longer wanted to think about why this happened. He believed that if he continued on this path, he would eventually find the answer.
But there is a disadvantage to doing this.
Lin Xu was afraid that if he arrived at the next stop first to look for technical information, the fairy ship would not be able to wait that long.
After all, war is a thing where things change rapidly on the battlefield. The fairy ship was almost unable to hold on, and it would be too late if I went there again.
Then we can only collect the bodies for the fairy ship.
It was not until after communicating with Mu Xiyue that Lin Xu was surprised to find that the next stop for humans was actually near the entrance of the only channel in and out of the space turbulence zone.
The combined fleet only reserved one channel for itself in the space turbulence, which was for their own use.
In the beginning, Mu Xiyue and other immortals paid a huge price to break out.
Nature still remembers this waterway vividly.
Mu Xiyue even remembered that the target galaxy that Lin Xu mentioned was now a material assembly point for the joint fleet.
What a coincidence.
In this case, we can have the best of both worlds and save ourselves the trouble of taking a detour.
Directly raid the joint fleet's material assembly point, search for technical upgrade information left behind by humans, then rush into the waterway and rescue the fairy ship.
Now the only thing Lin Xu is worried about is whether the fairy ship can hold on for that long.
After all, even if there is no need to take a detour, this journey will still take a lot of time.
"This war has been going on for hundreds of years. Although the Immortal Ship Penglai has reached its limit, it should be able to hold out for a few more years. I believe in them."
Mu Xiyue's answer finally made Lin Xu feel a little relieved.
So, are cosmic wars all measured in years or even centuries?
Lin Xu could only sigh that the concept of time in the universe is both fast and long.
