Chapter 390
Yu Xiangdong led the first batch of sixteen team members from their underground base to the public service point opened by the Kuiper Outer Space Exploration Branch, which is also the tourist city.
As soon as they left the tachyon transmission box in the tourist city, they attracted the attention of Emerson's surveillance personnel.
After Emerson's verification and Joseph's confirmation, these people were not only members of Shi Hanlin and Morton Jackson's Chiqiu Underground Star Fleet, but one of them was actually the commander of this underground base, Master Yu.
Because Emerson didn't know Yu Xiangdong, although Joseph knew him, he didn't know his name, so he called him Master Yu according to his team members' previous habit of calling him.
"Follow them immediately, wait until they go to a remote place with few people, and arrest them." Emerson immediately ordered his men.
"Slow down." Joseph quickly waved his hand to stop Emerson's men from executing the order.
"What's wrong?" Emerson looked at Joseph in confusion and asked.
"We'd better not take action lightly, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable," Joseph said.
"What are the consequences?" Emerson asked.
"I discovered through a search yesterday that this tourist city is an official organization of the Kuiper Space Exploration Agency and is a public service place outside the system. We cannot take action against them easily, otherwise it will be quickly discovered and dealt with by the Kuiper security system."
"That's right." Emerson understood and asked his men to suspend execution of his orders and go back first.
After his men exited, Emerson looked at Yu Xiangdong and his team members walking towards the tourist city block talking and laughing, thinking hard with his chin in a complicated mood.
"This matter is indeed difficult to handle." He thought for a long time and said to Joseph with a wry smile.
"We cannot figure out many of the Kuipers' cutting-edge technologies. Once our actions alarm them, they will quickly use their cutting-edge technology to target us, and we will be permanently frozen by them in the Kuipers' old human remains storage site.
"
"Do the Kuipers still have such a place?" Emerson was very surprised.
"If not, can you and I be reborn after 700 million years of death? We are just people from the last round of earth civilization who were resurrected by the Kuipers using their frozen remains 700 million years ago."
"This is too scary." Emerson nodded: "Thank you for your kind reminder. I will be careful in the future to avoid being frozen among the floating stars by the Kuipers and sleeping for hundreds of millions of years."
"Yes. If you want to capture Master Yu and his men, you have to be extra careful. Otherwise, once the Kuipers are alerted, we will be doomed."
"Catching them, do you still have so much knowledge?" Emerson smiled.
"How can you do it without knowledge?" Joseph did not laugh: "If you attack them easily, what if they fight back?"
"They want to fight back?" Emerson was a little surprised: "How to fight back?"
"Do you think you are the only one who has a fake machine?" Joseph asked.
"They have it too." Emerson was stunned: "Even if they have it, they don't dare to alert the Kuipers."
"Yes. Because of this, neither you nor him dare to act rashly." Joseph still said seriously.
"Then how can we catch them without anyone noticing?" Emerson asked.
"I think this is a very difficult thing to do," said Joseph.
"You mean, there's not even any way left?" Emerson asked.
"You can say that." Joseph nodded.
"Why?"
"If it's somewhere else, it wouldn't matter." Joseph said without thinking: "I used to think of the problem as very simple. But yesterday when searching for exoplanet information, I accidentally discovered that the Kuipers are very serious about exoplanet development. Most systems
There is no way to survive on the outer planets like the Earth, and even the Kuipers’ way of living is not applicable to the outer system.”
"What's going on outside the system? Isn't there even a living environment like the Oort cloud?" Emerson asked in confusion.
"The biggest problem in extraterrestrial survival is light pollution." Joseph nodded and said, "This issue has not been considered by people on earth. After all, they were all observed and studied from within the solar system at that time. I always thought that as long as we found something outside the solar system,
Just an Earth-like planet."
"Can't exoplanets that are very similar to the Earth seen from all sides in the solar system be colonized?"
"Yes." Joseph said: "It's just because most humans in the solar system have not considered that the environment outside the system is fundamentally different from the environment inside the system. The light of exostars is not the same thing as the light of the sun."
"But this is the result obtained by humans on earth through spectral analysis." Emerson did not agree with Joseph's point of view.
"The light emitted from the outer solar system received by the people on Earth or the Kuipers looks like it is coming in. In fact, it is not coming in, but leaking in."
"I really don't understand what you mean." Emerson said doubtfully: "Is the light leaking in? It's really a fantasy."
"It's true." Josephin said seriously: "In the large-scale universe, most of the starlight we see comes from the extremely distant deep space, and there are countless other stars and stars we see in front of it.
The invisible stars are blocked by the light and cannot come through directly. Some of them have to be deflected many times before they reach our observation mirror."
"What does this have to do with what we're talking about?"
"Aren't we talking about issues on exoplanets that are different from those within our solar system?" Joseph asked.
"Yes."
"What I'm mentioning is that most exoplanets have problems that make it impossible for people in our solar system to survive, that is, light pollution, that is, the light emitted by each star is actually different. We are only suitable to survive in our solar system."
"Your question sounds really fantastic. No one believes it."
"Didn't you see it now? Let alone the distant star Proxima Centauri, you can experience how difficult it is to survive outside the solar system. It's even talking about terrestrial planets."
"Okay." Emerson became impatient: "Let's talk about why we can't arrest Shi Hanlin and Merton Jackson."
"Didn't I just say it? It's very difficult to do this kind of thing outside the department. It's just because most of the activities are in the basement, and the restrictions are too great."
"Shall we give it a try first? Capture a few of their people first and see how they react."
"No need to try." Joseph shook his head and said: "We attacked them, and their drones responded immediately. Once there was a firefight, the Kuipers were alerted and immediately intervened to investigate. What will be the result?"
"What will be the result?" Emerson laughed: "After the firefight, I immediately transferred it to my own flying saucer near the earth through the tachyon teleportation system. Is it okay?"
"Is everything okay?" Joseph also smiled: "I'm afraid that before you entered the UFO cabin and sat firmly, your UFO was smashed to pieces by the Kuipers using special weapons from a long distance."
"Yeah." Emerson laughed again: "Are the Kuipers really that mysterious?"
"I have no intention of joking with you." Joseph stopped laughing and said seriously: "On other people's territory, we can't mess around no matter what. We have to use our brains and come up with better ways to deal with them."
"But we have nothing to do." Emerson shook his head: "When we didn't find them before, we were expecting them to come every day. Now that they are here, we find that they can't move casually."
"The main thing is that if we recklessly mess around on other people's territory, not only will we not be able to deal with our enemies, but we will be treated as enemies by the Kuipers."
"In this case, we have nothing to do. It is better to go back earlier."
