An old problem was put in front of Chen Feng again.
Join the war?
Not joining the war?
As early as nearly a hundred years ago, when he first walked out of the earth, this problem had been bothering him.
Given Chen Feng's nature, he certainly didn't want to sit idly by and watch. He had to go to the center of the battlefield and charge into battle in order to understand his thoughts.
But he found a reason to convince himself, that is, he needed to collect information and could not die too early.
He really spent the past hundred years accumulating countless knowledge in his mind, and even saved Xiaofu's life, allowing Xiaofu to advance thousands of miles until he discovered the giant lost ship, developed the warping armor, and finally used it all by himself.
The force destroys the spherical battleship.
Chen Feng has memorized a large amount of cosmology knowledge.
First of all, the coordinates of the life galaxies, miracle galaxies and the habitable and easy-to-modify galaxies that a large number of humans have developed and utilized will greatly accelerate the development and expansion of humans in the Orion Arm in the next timeline.
Secondly, the cosmology-related knowledge that he carefully selected and integrated can also allow future generations of humans in the solar system to focus on the universe in advance without leaving home, whether before or after the arrival of the solar dome.
Can.
The technological process within the solar system will also be accelerated again.
Third, he memorized the coordinates of the Mizu giant ship, and knew how to discover the heart and brain core of the Mizu. He also memorized Xiaofu's design plan for the folding armor, and Xiaofu's thinking of deducing the genetic information of the Z bacteria based on the protein structure.
model.
Then next time, worst of all, he can try to excavate the giant ship himself and make a warp armor after he arrives here.
Fourth, Xiaofu even understood the ZS bacteria. Even if this understanding was of no use, it was still better than a blank look on his face.
These are the results obtained by Chen Feng's hundreds of years of hiding, which prove that his seemingly selfish choice was correct.
Now the situation has reached a new stage.
Before, he could use the need to accumulate a lot of knowledge as a excuse and paralyze himself, quietly ignoring the fact that the basis for his decision not to go out was because he could not see "acquaintances" and there was no one he really cared about.
Now there is no time.
The same reason can't be used to stop it.
But the paradox still exists.
He really didn't know what to do better.
He is not someone who dares not take responsibility.
His hiding is not purely selfish, it is actually his greed.
This is not selfish greed, but the greed he has to act on behalf of the entire race in the face of the survival of civilization.
He dreams of finding a better choice, as long as he can win more benefits for civilization, make the lives of everyone in this timeline more meaningful, and let Xiaofu complete the last step of his highest ideal, even if he fails
The expectations of everyone in this timeline eventually turned into a sinner who was greedy for life and afraid of death in the hearts of others, a "traitor" who abandoned countless believers, and he could bear it.
So, it's not necessarily selfish on his part.
If Chen Feng takes Xiaofu into the war now, according to Wei Xing's and his own estimates, he can at most postpone the two-month period of destruction to three months, but Xiaofu still won't have time to finish planting the battleship.
But if he continues to hide, and after two months, he is the only one left in the Orion Arm, then the compound-eyed fleet will definitely start to go all out to find and suppress him.
How long can you run away then?
Will the Compound Eyes absorb the Orion Arm information through further penetration, quickly discover the secrets of the Grass people, and also penetrate into the subspace medium layer?
This is still unknown.
But another situation may arise. After Chen Feng brings Xiaofu back to human society, he allows Xiaofu to have a ideological collision with other top scientists, inspire each other's ideas, and expand and build a new and larger research institution for Xiaofu. Then even if he plants battleships
The advancement of technology is slow, and some other types of important technologies may break out. Maybe they can delay the demise of mankind?
Or, among the remaining scientific research power of mankind in the Orion Arm, there must be others who are as smart and talented as Xiaofu. If Xiaofu is used as a catalyst and put into the human fish tank, can a powerful catfish effect be formed?
How to complete the research and development of planting warships faster?
Chen Feng really doesn't know.
There was always a fog before his eyes.
The fog was so thick that he couldn't see the road clearly.
The direction of history is full of possibilities, and every choice Chen Feng makes will bring endless variables and bifurcations. The result of his thinking is that no matter what he chooses, he can't choose a standard answer.
Many people believe that an absolutely calm and rational person will be able to make a decision quickly and never hesitate when faced with a dilemma.
In fact, this is completely wrong.
The more calm and independent you are, the more pheromones you collect when making decisions, and the more comprehensive judgment bases you consider, the more complex the situation becomes. Reason is really of no help to whether the final decision is made quickly or correctly.
What can make human beings act without hesitation or hesitation is not logic but emotion.
Only emotion can make people know it is wrong and dare to risk it.
Chen Feng used to be an old gambler, but this time he has not found the fulcrum of his emotions, so he cannot get rid of the confusion caused by greed.
After thinking for a long time, Chen Feng jumped down from the medical cabin and sighed.
In his thinking just now, God knows what a huge flow of information he quickly analyzed, but he didn't come to a conclusion and his mind was spinning.
He said to himself: "Regardless of whether we participate in the war or not, we won't be able to return to the empire's territory for a while. Let's keep our distance first, neither getting closer nor farther away, and just fly like this. Then we'll see what happens."
At the same time, he also sent a message to Xiaofu and temporarily changed the route.
Xiaofu didn't make any suggestions on this, he just listened to Chen Feng's arrangements.
Chen Feng reopened the Empire Territory Galaxy Simulation System and once again examined the battle situation from the overall situation to the details.
Today, there are still more than 600 of humanity's original 14,400 major colonial galaxies.
The reason why this part of the colonial galaxy has been able to maintain its existence until now is not because of its strength, but simply because of its mediocrity.
These galaxies have neither top-level scientific research institutions that can promote technological progress, nor large-scale industrial bases with mature industrial chains in all aspects, with some special mineral deposits, nor favorable natural planetary environments and moderate stellar environments, nor are they capable of cultivating reserve populations.
The breeding base is so mediocre that even those with compound eyes are too lazy to choose it as their main target.
In addition, more than 800 new colonies were established to increase military resources and restore industrial production capacity.
The Dyson membrane energy base galaxy originally expanded to hundreds of thousands, but during the years of war, there are now less than 10,000 left, and the main channels for biobattery transportation have long been cut off.
All 1024 star gates have been destroyed long ago.
Humanity's large carrier ships can no longer safely travel through the routes.
As long as a large transport ship dares to appear on the route, it will definitely be discovered by the patrolling blade beetles.
Humanity can only break it into pieces and send some small artificial or intelligent ships to travel through the waterways in small and large batches, and find ways to bring more energy batteries back to the surviving galaxies in a period of as short as a few months or as long as a few years.
Even so, small units will still encounter enemy attacks from time to time.
If what you encounter is not a blade beetle, but a beetle or a dragonfly fighter plane, you still have a chance to fight.
If you encounter a blade beetle, you basically just want to escape for one more second.
Despite the dangers, these long-distance porters never stop running.
No one cares about death, just like everyone knows that the death rate in air crashes is extremely high, but people still have to fly.
Someone will always have to sacrifice, but there will always be someone who can successfully reach the destination and bring back the precious batteries.
Since microwave power transmission cannot cross the planetary system, the main output of the Dyson Membrane Energy Base galaxy is batteries.
In a complete industrial system, each high-performance battery can be transformed into dozens of standard fighters.
Dozens of batteries can be transformed into a small battleship.
Transporters also often change their destinations temporarily, either because blade beetles have appeared in the energy base ahead, or because the galaxy at their return destination has been destroyed.
Since many years ago, the Compound Eyes changed their war strategy, began to gradually cleanse and block human scientific research capabilities, industrial capabilities and population supply capabilities, and continued to cut off human supply lines, transporters have become an important job type with many practitioners.
Since the end of 3118, when the Compound Eyes built the serpentine stargate and began to occupy or destroy human stargates, the number of carriers increased countless times in a short period of time.
A huge number of carriers, who look like cosmic wanderers, use their lives to form the blood vessels of the remaining colonies of the Morrowind Empire, supporting the last remaining glory of the empire.
In short, on the huge empire star map, most of the once prosperous human colonies have long been turned into orange dots.
There are a total of more than 1,400 remaining galaxies, scattered throughout the territory, without scale or organization. Most of them have turned blood-like red, and only a few are still showing the green color that represents temporary safety.
Humanity's original seventy-two star districts have long existed in name only.
Chen Feng noticed that at the other end of the Morrowind Empire's territory far away from where he was, there was a red dot with a particularly bright and eye-catching color.
He first narrowed the search range, zoomed in on the star map, and then let out a light sigh.
It's weird.
Currently, the Compound Eyes have approximately 90,000 prismatic warships patrolling outside the Orion Arm to hunt for escape ships.
The nearly 900,000 prismatic warships in the Orion Arm are divided into groups of hundreds and divided into more than a thousand squads to attack different human galaxies.
But the small planetary system in front of him was filled with a hundred thousand prismatic battleships.
Moreover, the combat strategy used by the prism ship was different from the past. Instead of advancing in divisions, it formed a grid link formation around a huge star that made Chen Feng familiar, and pressed forward steadily with a slow but determined attitude.
Chen Feng scanned the detailed information of the galaxy and suddenly realized it.
This is the df-711 star system equipped with an ultra-small stellar engine code-named 001. It is also the only slow-speed super fortress built by humans to be directly powered by stars.
Since the beginning of the war, the DF-711 fortress ship with a diameter of 7.11 million kilometers has begun to slowly accelerate at an extremely slow speed, drifting from the edge of the development sector to the outside of the Orion Arm.
Due to the inability to build a curvature bubble generator huge enough to cover a range of 7.11 million kilometers, the fortress ship can only adopt the traditional medium propulsion mode.
A hundred years have passed, and the flying speed of the 711 Fortress Ship still cannot reach the speed of light. It is only 60,000 kilometers per second, which is about one-fifth of the speed of light. It has not left the territory of the Morrowind Empire, but is only slightly closer to the border.
But this is within the estimation of scientists. As long as it can persist for a few hundred more years, the 711 Fortress will gradually approach the speed of light and launch itself towards the far end of the Laniakea supercluster in an unstoppable manner.
According to scientists' estimates, the force field shield of the fortress ship with full power can overcome the grid plasma tearing of the prismatic battleship through sheer force, and can also rely on its huge mass to resist the traction and devouring of the black hole bomb. The force field shield plus
The ultra-thick alloy shell protection can also withstand the bombardment of anti-matter bombs.
As for the blade beetle's unified cutting force, I'm not afraid either.
The surface of the fortress ship is covered with countless energy cannons using focusing lenses, which can carry out saturation strikes. If the blade beetle really rushes up, there is a complete chance of destroying it.
As for the Blade Beetleās ability to jump?
Under the influence of the super strong gravity brought by the super mass of the fortress ship, the space near the fortress ship is already distorted. Coupled with the continuous influence of the super powerful space disorder force field, it is not that easy for the Blade Mantis to jump closer.
As for physical poison bombs?
Don't be afraid of that either.
The fortress ship's shell armor has tens of thousands of independent layers, as well as a scale structure design that can be divided at any time. If it is blown to pieces, just give up on the spot.
The outer shell on the lower layer can float up immediately to replace the damaged parts, and the manufacturing factory on the inner layer can work overtime to produce new armor.
Leaving aside the stellar engine, the batteries stored in the fortress ship are enough for the billions of people inside to use it at full capacity for tens of millions of years.
Scientific researchers have done nothing in the past hundred years. While analyzing the structure of the prism ship, in addition to studying how to break through the opponent's armor, they are also improving their own materials based on explosion feedback.
According to the most pessimistic estimates of the empire's top brass, even if it loses the battle, the 711 Fortress has a chance of rushing into the endless universe, even if it is chased by prism ships along the way.
The history of mankind will continue in the fortress ship. There is a chance for one thousand, ten thousand, one hundred thousand, one million or even hundreds of millions of years.
Maybe one day, humans can enter the territory of another more powerful civilization, and this powerful civilization happens to be the "good guys"?
Although this is a dream, it is better than locking yourself in a nightmare.
The highest headquarters of the Morrowind Empire is also located in the fortress ship.
With such a big target, it is naturally difficult to escape from the eyes of those with compound eyes.
Previously, the Compound Eyes might have planned to leave it until the end to sort it out slowly, but now they suddenly changed their mind and mobilized a hundred thousand prism ships to surround it.
The forward pace of the fortress ship still did not stop, but the encirclement of the prism ships also steadily moved in sync with the speed of the fortress ship.
There are still countless battleships and fighter planes flying out, trying to tear apart the encirclement of the prism ships.
On the outside of the encirclement, there were more scattered human forces gathering from all directions.
With the sand gathered into a tower, the human forces just trying to break through the prism's protective layer on the periphery were comparable to the Barnard Star Fleet in its heyday.
There is no doubt that this will be mankind's last battle.
Weixing's two-month estimate refers to exactly how long it believes the 711 Fortress can last.
As for other colonial galaxies, they cannot survive that time.
When the 711 fortress ship is destroyed, it will be the end of human civilization.
