During a jump, the Rose Yiren came to another pitch-black void. Although everyone on the bridge saw pitch black, they knew that there was actually a huge creature hidden in this darkness.
"The Rose Yiren has been affected by the gravity of the target planet, and we are entering its outer gravitational orbit!" Rose reported the situation, and at the same time, all the lighting on the bow of the ship was turned on, and a huge dark shadow was immediately illuminated in the void.
"Hi~ This guy is so ugly!" As a result, others didn't react at all, but Rose herself was disgusted at first.
In fact, Rong Xiang had seen this wandering planet in the dark before, and it was indeed very ugly. It is hard to imagine that such a natural planet is full of pits, and there is not a single mountain peak.
They are all similar abnormal pits.
This is definitely man-made, but we don’t know why the intelligent life on this planet would do this.
The Rose Yiren did not land immediately, but circled the planet... Then they discovered that there were not only pits on the planet, but also many huge collapses... It seemed that they were underneath the collapses.
This situation occurs when the strata have been evacuated.
However, they still found the 'peak'. It was located in the south pole region of the planet. There was a 'mountain' towering into the sky... Well, from the alien shapes of those 'mountains', we could tell that they were huge.
Planetary thrusters. Just as Rong Xiang guessed, the intelligent life here uses planetary thrusters to directly push their parent star out of their original star system. I just don’t know how they wandered all the way here. The theory
Technically speaking, such a wandering planet will not leave the galactic disk area of the Milky Way. After all, intelligent life on the planet cannot do such stupid things. Even if the energy of the planetary thruster is exhausted or damaged, it will sooner or later be affected by the gravity of the passing star.
Capture and become one of their companion stars.
So there is only one explanation for encountering a rogue planet hundreds of light years outside the Milky Way: it comes from outside the Milky Way!
There are also some sporadic star systems outside the Milky Way. These star systems often exist very lonely in the infinite void. No one is willing to explore such galaxies because the cost-effectiveness of a round trip is too low. Moreover, these star systems usually form alone.
The star system of the star system will not be too rich in matter. It is considered to have four or five planets accompanying it. The probability of birth of intelligent life and civilization is very low. Of course, once the birth of intelligent life in this kind of star system, they will
The development process will be very safe and will not be subject to any external interference. Comet impacts, alien invasions, meteor showers and the like will basically not be encountered, but when they enter the interstellar age, they will become very lonely.
Because it was impossible to travel faster than the speed of light at the beginning of the interstellar era, the long distance between them and other celestial bodies destined them to be trapped in their own star systems.
So the intelligent life on the planet that Rong Xiang and the others encountered should be more thoughtful. It seems that they regard their planet as a spaceship with nearly unlimited power to span endless distances. It is a pity that they seem to have failed.
It's... It's still nearly 500 light-years away from the Milky Way. At the speed of this planet, it might take another tens of thousands of years to get close to the edge of the Milky Way. And those planetary thrusters... seem to have been extinguished for a long time!
But these have nothing to do with him. The Star Empire, which is more concerned about war, does not have the habit of studying the civilizations of other races. The only value of this planet to them is material supplement, if there is really intelligent life on it.
, then all they have to do is war and conquest...
The Rose Lady fell towards the South Pole of the planet. For no other reason, a certain captain just wanted to 'pick up trash' along the way.
"The planet's rotation has stopped, no magma heat source has been detected inside, and the geomagnetism is therefore very weak or even completely disappeared. No valuable metal veins have been detected, and only a piece of icy permafrost remains on the surface... This planet has completely
Dead." Rose gave her own judgment after turning on all the detectors on the Rose Yiren to scan it.
Rong Xiang listened calmly, and then gave an order: "Get ready to land, but everyone is on guard and don't let down your guard."
The next moment, the Rose Yiren landed among the group of planetary thrusters. As it landed, the heavily weathered ground immediately collapsed, causing a huge commotion. As a last resort, the Rose Yiren could only turn on
The anti-gravity system put the entire ship in a semi-weightless state, which prevented it from falling into a pit.
Subsequently, various detectors and mining robots were sent out to collect resources. Because of the existence of the material converter, no matter what kind of material was collected, it could be converted into the materials they needed.
The people in the Fengyi Army are temporarily staying behind on the Rose Yiren. Even if the entire planet seems to have no sign of life, they cannot relax. It would be funny if they mine and lose their spaceship.
After arranging everything, Rong Xiang took a spherical detector remotely controlled by Rose to explore this planetary thruster. He wanted to see if there would be anything valuable left in it... This once existed
The level of civilization and science and technology in China should be far inferior to that of today's humans, but it might be enlightening in some aspects.
Wearing Avalon Hidden Edge, Rong Xiang strode forward without any hesitation. With his current strength and human technological advantages, he felt that he should no longer be so cautious.
He entered the interior of the planetary thruster and discovered that this place was actually a man-made community surrounding the planetary engine! Of course, all these communities now have only ruins. It seems that someone deliberately destroyed them all, leaving only
There are only a few scattered traces.
"Rong Xiang, you may be disappointed. These planetary thrusters are actually powered by primitive nuclear fission reactors. The reactor in front of us has been extinguished for more than 20,000 years." Rose said with certainty: "This is a
It’s a very low-level civilization in terms of energy utilization.”
"This is very strange. In theory, if you want to use a planetary engine to take this planet to explore the void, then the people who built it will definitely consider using the most widely used energy as the engine fuel? Previous detection results are
There are no metal veins on this planet, and there is not even a trace of heavy metals, so why do these planetary engines use heavy nuclear fission reactors?" Rong Xiang raised his question.
"Perhaps they have exhausted all the heavy metal veins?" The image of Rose's forced retort was projected on the spherical detector.
Rong Xiang said nonchalantly: "It is possible to sample and analyze the soil here to see what its composition is."
He always felt that he might be able to gain some unusual gains here...
