Pingtang Astronomical Center.
The head of the Earth Federation, who had rushed over after hearing the news, could not rest and grabbed the arm of the president of the Astronomical Center.
"Are you sure? An extraterrestrial lifeform appeared near Mars?”
The Grand Chancellor was presiding over a meeting of the federal parliament in a nearby city.
After receiving this news, he ignored the shocked gazes of the councilmen and hurriedly walked out of the venue.
It wasn't that the Grand Chancellor was being rude, but the weight of this news was simply too important!
Ever since the myth of Chang'e flying to the moon thousands of years ago, it had been entrusted with the dream of humans leaving the earth and exploring space.
Due to the limitations of science and technology, the furthest humans could go was the moon.
This was something that had happened more than 200 years ago!
More than a hundred years ago, many countries on Earth established the Earth Federation in order to ensure eternal peace and eliminate war!
The emergence of the Earth Federation had allowed mankind to bid farewell to the era of nations!
The dark clouds of war that had shrouded Earth for thousands of years finally dissipated!
War, humanity's greatest enemy, had disappeared from the earth, and humanity was immersed in the joy of eternal peace.
However, the side effect was that due to the disappearance of war, mankind could no longer find the motivation to promote technological development!
Manned space technology had stagnated or even regressed for more than a hundred years!
Ever since humans landed on the moon, they had never stepped out of Earth for more than a hundred years!
The results of astronomical telescopes all over the world had long verified the conclusion that humans were the only intelligent life form in the solar system and even the Milky Way.
Without the threat of external enemies, the humans on Earth completely relaxed!
The sudden appearance of a life form signal from another galaxy near Mars was undoubtedly a signal that crossed the galaxy.
In the minds of the humans on Earth, an extraterrestrial lifeform that could cross the galaxy was undoubtedly superior to the humans on Earth in terms of technology!
The appearance of this information meant that there would be some unpredictable results on Earth!
If the extraterrestrial life form had malicious intentions towards the humans on Earth. The consequences would be unimaginable!
"Grand Chancellor, it has been confirmed!”
The president of the Tang Ping Astronomical Center obviously knew what this news meant!
Therefore, his expression was very serious!
"Just now, we received another reply from the other party!”
"What did he reply?"
As the leader of all mankind, no matter how stable the Grand Chancellor's mental state was, he could not avoid losing his composure in such a situation!
"According to the deciphering of our central scientist, Tang Rui, the result of the message we just received is-Galaxy spacecraft, request to dock at Earth's spaceport!”
"Sky Harbor? What is this?"
The Grand Chancellor asked naturally to himself.
Seeing everyone shake their heads in unison, the Grand Chancellor understood that no one else would give him an answer to this question.
The Grand Chancellor looked at the think tank team behind him, hoping that everyone could brainstorm and come up with some solutions.
The atmosphere in the arena was in a state of anxiety!
No one had ever expected the sudden situation before their eyes, so they naturally couldn't find a countermeasure at the moment.
"Your Excellency, I suggest that we focus on whether to respond to the other party's request and how to respond."
Tang Rui, a scientist from the Tang Ping Astronomical Center, first put forward a very constructive proposal.
His suggestion was not bad. Instead of relying on imagination to guess the other party's intentions and strength, it was better to use the opportunity to talk to the other party to find out the details of the aliens.
With Tang Rui taking the lead, the Head of State's think tank also recovered from their short-circuited state and put forward their own opinions one after another.
" First of all, we have to seal off all the astronomy centers immediately to prevent the news from spreading to society and causing panic among the public!”
"We can't let the extraterrestrial lifeforms get close to Earth.”
"I suggest that the Grand Chancellor inform the parliament immediately!”
"I suggest that the military take immediate action and prepare all strategic weapons to prevent the possible invasion of extraterrestrial life forms!”
“......”
At the same time.
Galaxy.
Zhao Xiaofeng was also waiting for the news with a serious expression.
After he and Tomcat repeatedly reasoned, they came to the conclusion that their Human Alliance no longer existed!
He didn't have time to think about the specific reason why the Human Alliance had sent the news!
Now, his spaceship was facing a situation where there was no supply and no support from the rear!
In other words, no matter who the imaginary enemy on Earth was, Galaxy was a lone army!
"Tomcat, check all the supplies and weapons on our spaceship!”
"Weapons and equipment! Good heavens!"
" Captain!" Tomcat protested unhappily." Our Galaxy is a research spacecraft! It's not a combat type!"
Despite complaining, Tomcat still faithfully fulfilled its responsibility and reported the data to Zhao Xiaofeng.
On Galaxy, the only weapon that Tomcat believed to be powerful was the main cannon for scientific research. It was powered by the nuclear fusion engine's backup engine.
The main cannon was used to bombard asteroids with research value in space.
The maximum output of the main cannon could shatter an asteroid with a diameter of 200 kilometers. Then, the spacecraft's capture device would capture the asteroid fragments and drag them back to the storage warehouse.
There were only two other potential energy swords used for close combat.
After the Potential Energy Sword was activated, the potential energy produced by the rapid vibration of the microscopic particles could shatter matter with a density of about 300 kg/cubic centimeter!
In the past, during interstellar travel, these two swords were used to cut some captured interstellar meteorites.
As for fuel, there were still about 700 tons of controllable nuclear fusion fuel on the spacecraft.
There was also food, water, and a small amount of medicine that could allow Zhao Xiaofeng to survive for 300 years without hibernation.
This was all the supplies on the spaceship!
"If we return now and everything goes well, we can reach the Brander Star Sector about 8.2 light years away…”
"Then become an interstellar wanderer until the end of your life, Captain. If we are lucky, we can develop under the protection of other civilizations. With the cloning technology and the modification of the human body, we have about a 1.7% chance of continuing the civilization of the Human Alliance!”
"If everything goes smoothly, we have a 3% chance of reaching the glory of the Earth Union in 10,000 years!”
Tomcat gave the most rational suggestion and conclusion.
"If you intend to attack the enemies on Earth, the chances of success are zero!“
" Even if they are just primitive people with sticks as weapons, as long as the population exceeds 96 million! With just the two of us, it's impossible to take back Earth!“
" This is the conversion between quantitative change and qualitative change. Captain, you must understand!”
" Everything is about the legacy of civilization. I understand!”Zhao Xiaofeng nodded and replied," Let's wait for their reply first. Maybe there'll be a turn of events!"”
