At this moment, Xiao Yu is at the junction of the edge of the Milky Way and interstellar space, and the star that suddenly disappeared is near the edge of the Milky Way. It is a very ordinary red dwarf star with very low mass, low temperature and luminosity.
Very low. It does not have any satellite planets, not even many asteroids or interstellar dust orbiting it. It is orbiting a nearby binary star system alone, like an abandoned piece of sand.
This type of star is the most numerous and least noticeable star in the Milky Way. It is of little value to either low-level or high-level civilizations. For low-level civilizations that hope to rely on stellar radiation to obtain survival resources,
It is said that its habitable zone is too small, too close to the star, and has too much harmful radiation. For intermediate civilizations that hope to use rocky planets or asteroids to obtain resources, it only has a bare main star without any decent
Planets have no value. For advanced civilizations that use stars as fuel, for example, for Xiao Yu, it is too small to be worth touching. In short, it is the one with the least sense of existence and the least sense of existence in the galaxy.
Stars that people pay attention to.
But now, with Xiao Yu currently searching for traces of the Guardian civilization, its disappearance is enough to attract Xiao Yu's attention. Although it is only a red dwarf star, it can make such a star disappear, at least
It must be a level six civilization. Moreover, there is something weird about its disappearance process.
Xiao Yu saw that it first disappeared from the visible light band and various radiation bands, and then after a period of time, it disappeared from the gravitational wave. Based on this, Xiao Yu easily drew an inference: there is an unknown
The existence of the civilization is trying to hide it. This civilization adopts some means to first shield its radiation band. After the work is completed, its gravity is also shielded through gravitational shielding technology, allowing it to be shielded from large-scale
It can be seen that it has lost its trace in the universe.
This phenomenon immediately aroused Xiao Yu's interest. Xiao Yu guessed almost instantly: "There is a high probability that this is what the guardian civilization does. Perhaps the guardian civilization collects this kind of unobtrusive
Stars evaporate them from the world, and then quietly transport them away to serve as nodes on the star road. Follow it first, and as long as you follow it, you will definitely find where the guardian civilization is hidden."
Xiao Yu made an instant decision. So, Xiao Yu immediately dispatched several specially-made concealed micro-ships and rushed towards that place. Xiao Yu knew that the Guardian Civilization probably had not discovered his traces yet. Because if the Guardian Civilization had already
After knowing that they had laid a dragnet in this place, how could they still capture stars in this area?
"As long as I'm not discovered... From now on, all detectors will enter a concealed state. Except for the tracking spacecraft, all other types of spacecraft will also enter a concealed state." Xiao Yu quickly issued the order. Xiao Yu's large force
It did not move, but only sent out a few of the most concealed small spacecrafts. If a large force is dispatched, it will be easy to be discovered. It is most appropriate to dispatch small concealed spacecrafts to obtain the location information before dispatching large forces to encircle and suppress them.
.
Three ultra-miniature spaceships, which were about the size of desks in the Earth era, adopted a special curvature navigation method and began to move towards the place where the star disappeared. A star cannot move too fast during transportation, and the speed of such a small spacecraft is enough
Catch up and follow quietly.
The detectors near this star are quietly watching it, providing direction guidance for the approaching tracking spacecraft. During the period when the tracking spacecraft arrived, one of Xiao Yu's guesses was confirmed,
The confirmation of this guess made Xiao Yu even more confused.
Although this hidden red dwarf star is shielded from the radiation band and gravitational band, it is impossible for a star to completely disappear from the universe. It will always leave some traces. Until now.
It has sailed a distance of more than ten light years, but at this distance, the detectors arranged by Xiao Yu in advance can still detect it.
Then it is very strange, since this hidden star can still be observed by Xiao Yu at a distance of ten light years. Then why Xiao Yu could not find the guardian civilization in the previous large-scale carpet search
The arranged star road nodes? According to the current situation, the only reason why Xiao Yu can't find it is that the guardian civilization has not arranged any nodes here at all.
This is Xiao Yu's confirmed guess, but it is this matter that makes Xiao Yu even more confused. Because if you want to sail to the Andromeda Galaxy, you will definitely set up nodes in this area. Set the nodes in this area.
It's not impossible, but what's the reason for doing this? Although this can surprise some people, the price required is too high, for example, a person on earth has to travel a thousand kilometers north.
, but he set up the first supply point a hundred kilometers south.
Gradually, another guess emerged in Xiao Yu's mind. However, this guess was too outrageous and unreasonable, and Xiao Yu was still not sure yet.
A year later, Xiao Yu's tracking spacecraft finally caught up with the star. With the help of the very weak reflection of starlight nearby, Xiao Yu saw what the star looked like at this moment.
It has completely changed its appearance. Xiao Yu knows that this change in appearance is caused by external forces. There is a black film ball of unknown material that covers the entire star. It is this film
, blocking most of the star's radiation, including light, infrared, ultraviolet, neutrinos, gamma rays, etc. At the same time, this film also has very good light-absorbing properties. When the external star's light shines on it, it will only
A very small part is reflected back. This means that it is very difficult to detect in the light band. If Xiao Yu's tracking spacecraft was not equipped with very sensitive optical instruments, Xiao Yu would not be able to see it at all.
On top of this big black film ball, there were some faint bulges, and there were some instruments-like things built there. Because he was afraid of being discovered by them, Xiao Yu did not dare to get too close, but even at such a distance
From the observations on the aircraft, Xiao Yu roughly guessed that those things should be gravitational shielding instruments, related equipment that supports the operation of thin films, and equipment that can bring an entire star into curvature navigation.
"Dyson ball? You guys can't imagine it." Xiao Yu thought inexplicably.
The Dyson Sphere is an idea imagined by humans in the Earth Age. Human beings imagine that by building a big ball and enveloping the entire star, they can achieve the effect of harvesting all the radiation energy of the star for their own use. However, in the development process of Xiao Yu
Among them, the Dyson Sphere did not appear at all, because it was not necessary. Starting from element decay technology, energy is no longer a constraint for Xiao Yu. There is abundant material in the galaxy for Xiao Yu to use at will, so why bother to build a Dyson Sphere?
Such a thing. But Xiao Yu did not expect that the Dyson ball would have other functions in the hands of the guardian civilization.
That is concealment, letting a star disappear without any reason.
The actions of the Guardian Civilization reminded Xiao Yu of some things that happened in human society in the Earth Age. In certain eras, in places with poor public security, at night, people often walked around and were suddenly hit by a bag.
He was lassoed and then pulled away in the darkness. Thinking about it now, what happened to this star at this moment was very similar to the person who was kidnapped at that time.
After secretly sighing in his heart, Xiao Yu controlled his small spaceship and continued to follow. By this time, Xiao Yu was basically sure that the person who kidnapped Xingxing in a cloth bag was at least 100%
Ninety-nine chances are it is the Guardian Civilization.
So far, Xiao Yu has been tracking this star-capturing team for more than a hundred years, and the two sides have sailed a distance of more than 8,000 light-years. When the team sailed more than 500 light-years, Xiao Yu
Yu's large army had quietly launched to follow them. For Xiao Yu, five hundred light years was only a journey of more than three years.
"Sure enough, the star road node is not built in this area..." As the distance of the voyage became farther and farther, and the distance from his predetermined range became farther and farther, the guess in Xiao Yu's heart became more and more certain.
Get up, "It seems that your voyage target is not the Andromeda Galaxy..."
It seems that at the beginning, when he heard that the Guardian Civilization was going to sail across the river system, Xiao Yu subconsciously believed that the Guardian Civilization’s voyage target was the Andromeda Galaxy. Because people go higher, in the local galaxy group
, the Andromeda Galaxy is the only galaxy larger than the Milky Way. If we travel to the Galaxy, we will undoubtedly have more room for development in the Andromeda Galaxy. However, the Guardian Civilization did something unexpected.
They didn't even choose the Andromeda galaxy as their destination.
So far, Xiao Yu has basically confirmed this, but Xiao Yu still doesn’t know where the Guardian Civilization has chosen its destination. This will only happen after seeing the location of the Guardian Civilization star road node.
It can be inferred.
Time passed bit by bit, and after the star was towed and sailed for more than two hundred years, the star capture team of the Guardian Civilization finally stopped. Xiao Yu, who was hiding in the dark, saw that
In this place, there are at least thousands of similar stars staying here... (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
