Chapter 594 Long-Term Plan
Because this state of consciousness jumping actually consumes a lot of energy.
Even Ning Chen cannot maintain this state for a long time, and must return his consciousness to his body to recover his energy.
Therefore, although Ning Chen has very limited information about the "space civilization" he has obtained now, Ning Chen must go back first.
Thinking of this, Ning Chen first entered the virtual space again, and then quickly used the virtual space as a medium to return to his body on Mars.
Perhaps because the robot civilization has not found a way to solve this problem, Ning Chen still did not encounter any serious obstacles when entering the virtual space this time, which also allowed Ning Chen's high-dimensional quantum energy body to be successfully preserved.
After returning to his body, Ning Chen can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Although he is not very satisfied with the amount of information he has gained, overall, this space shuttle operation is still very successful.
Ning Chen not only successfully learned some information related to this "space civilization", but also successfully retained his high-dimensional quantum energy body, which proves that the strategy formulated by Ning Chen and Song Xiyun before is very effective.
Seeing Ning Chen's current state, Song Xiyun also knew that Ning Chen should not have encountered any particularly abnormal situation this time.
"Ning Chen, our action this time was successful, right? You should take a good rest first, and then tell me slowly."
With these lessons, Song Xiyun became much calmer and no longer rushed Ning Chen to "report" this information to her immediately.
Because this information was viewed from Ning Chen's special perspective, Song Xiyun could not directly understand this information, and could only understand the actual situation through Ning Chen's narration.
Hearing Song Xiyun's words, Ning Chen did not remain silent for a long time this time, but immediately answered Song Xiyun's questions.
"It's okay, Song Xiyun, resting will not affect my answering these questions to you. Just as you imagined, our action this time was relatively successful. Let me tell you some good news first."
In the following time, Ning Chen told Song Xiyun about how he successfully used the virtual space to complete the shuttle, learned some information about "space civilization", and successfully preserved his high-dimensional quantum energy body.
After learning the news, Song Xiyun was also very happy, because these results were basically the same as the best case scenario they expected.
"Great, this 'space civilization' has not developed to the point where we cannot control it. As long as we can find the right method, there is hope to compete with them. So... Ning Chen, what are the bad news you mentioned?"
Song Xiyun knew that these objective facts were something they could not escape. Even if Song Xiyun didn't want to hear these bad news in his heart, he still had to face the reality.
"The first bad news is that this 'space civilization' has indeed discovered the barrier between the positive and antimatter universes, and has destroyed this barrier and started to collect antimatter in large quantities. If this trend continues, they may become the overlord of the entire universe and threaten the safety of all other civilizations in the universe..."
Seeing Ning Chen say this, Song Xiyun's face became heavy. Even though he had some psychological preparation for this matter, when he confirmed that this matter was indeed true, Song Xiyun still couldn't accept it.
The threat level of this "space civilization" is far greater than that of the alien civilization several light years away from the Blue Star civilization. They have obtained a large amount of antimatter energy, just like primitive people who suddenly obtained thermal weapons. The difference between the two is very obvious.
Moreover, this way of obtaining energy is like taking advantage of the bug in the game. It is difficult for them to find an effective way to deal with it.
"Ning Chen... Is there any other bad news besides this bad news?"
"Of course." Ning Chen said with a wry smile.
"Then let's say it all at once. Anyway, there is not much difference between one bad news and several bad news for us."
"There is not so much bad news. This is just what I am more worried about. This time I was able to travel smoothly in the virtual space without destroying my high-dimensional quantum energy body. The main reason is that we changed the way of sustenance of the high-dimensional quantum energy body in time, and did not leave enough research time for this robot civilization..."
Hearing Ning Chen say this, Song Xiyun immediately understood what Ning Chen wanted to express.
Ning Chen's success this time was mainly because he caught the robot civilization off guard. However, with the robot civilization's powerful scientific research capabilities, the same method may not work next time.
"If the robot civilization is given enough time, I believe they will definitely find a new way to deal with it. Therefore, the next time we use virtual space to shuttle, we may need to adopt a new high-dimensional quantum energy body to avoid the attack of the robot civilization again..."
After Ning Chen finished speaking, Song Xiyun asked in a tentative tone:
"Ning Chen... Have you finished telling all the bad news this time?"
"Well, it's almost done. No matter what the actual situation is, we must face it and find the best way to deal with it. Facing the crisis that will appear in the entire universe, we must stand up and bravely shoulder the responsibilities on our shoulders."
Ning Chen's words sounded a bit heroic, but in fact, the only people who are really capable of dealing with this situation are probably the few people on Blue Star, including Ning Chen.
After all, Blue Star civilization was the first to discover "space civilization" and that "space civilization" is collecting a lot of antimatter energy. If even Blue Star civilization is indifferent to this, then it is very likely that no one in the universe will provide power for this matter.
After having an experience that was extremely close to death, Ning Chen's thoughts on many things have changed. He will not care about those trivial things, but he will not abandon any responsibilities that he should bear.
Under Ning Chen's leadership, Song Xiyun has also become a lot braver, and no longer has a very pessimistic mentality because of the difficulty of this matter.
"Ning Chen... I will definitely do my best to help you find a way to fight against this 'space civilization'. We can't let the universe we have been living in be destroyed by that 'space civilization'. For this, I am willing to bet everything on myself."
In the following time, Ning Chen and Song Xiyun analyzed the details of the matter together and made a plan to fight against the "space civilization".
"Song Xiyun, one thing we must understand now is that the task of fighting against the 'space civilization' is definitely not something that can be completed in a short time. This is a very long-term task, and the time span may range from decades to hundreds of years. Therefore, we don't have to worry too much about short-term things, but make long-term plans..."
The distance between the Blue Star civilization and this "space civilization" is dozens of light years away. Even if it uses the speed of electromagnetic waves to navigate, it will take decades to reach the end, not to mention the time required to send a space fleet.
Although this "space civilization" already has powerful space folding technology, it is definitely not an easy task to create a folded space that can span dozens of light years. The antimatter energy consumed will increase exponentially.
On the other hand, the impact of this "space civilization" on the universe is not as serious as Ning Chen and Song Xiyun had worried about before.
Because this "space civilization" itself also knows what consequences their large-scale collection of antimatter energy will have. As a member of the positive matter universe, they will not do anything to shoot themselves in the foot, but adopt a more "scientific" antimatter collection method.
In other words, even if this behavior is definitely harmful to the universe in the long run, the speed of the harm will not be so fast, nor will it be so obvious, at least it will not affect the development and life of this "space civilization" itself.
As long as this problem can be solved within a few hundred years, the impact of this matter on the universe can still be ignored.
"Song Xiyun, our ultimate goal is to reach this 'space civilization' one day in the future and fill the gap in the barrier of this antimatter universe. In order to achieve this goal, we need to make very thorough preparations..."
This goal doesn't sound that difficult to achieve, but in fact, in order to complete such a task, the premise is that we must be able to defeat this "space civilization".
Originally, the development speed of Blue Star civilization lags behind this "space civilization", and they have inexhaustible antimatter energy, so it is almost impossible to defeat them.
After talking about this long-term goal, Ning Chen continued to talk to Song Xiyun about their short-term goals.
"Song Xiyun, in fact, in the short term, we don't need to rush for success, but we can first break through some research projects that seem to have little to do with this plan. For example, the projects related to the evolution and development of intelligent creatures that we have not completely solved before can now continue."
Originally, this project was the project that Ning Chen and Song Xiyun had been studying before, but because of the abnormal situation of "space civilization" discovered by Hayes, Ning Chen and Song Xiyun had to temporarily put this project on hold.
After hearing Ning Chen's words, Song Xiyun immediately understood Ning Chen's idea. If this project can make some major breakthroughs, it will definitely have some effect on the fight against "space civilization".
"Yes, it's time to pick up this project again. As long as we can find the ultimate answer to the evolution of intelligent creatures, we will definitely become stronger."
At this stage, Song Xiyun will not care too much about whether the genetic changes will make them no longer the same as before. Compared with the crisis that the entire universe has to face, these are already very minor things.
For Song Xiyun, as long as she and Ning Chen can keep their original intentions, no matter what they become, they will still be who they once were.
…………
In the following days, Ning Chen and Song Xiyun continued to study the evolution of intelligent creatures according to their plan.
This research was not easy to carry out, but they would not retreat because of the difficulty of the project. Instead, they would carry out the research without any distractions and no longer worry about other things.
On the other hand, after a period of investigation, this "space civilization" finally discovered the abnormal incident last time and realized that their civilization had been invaded by another civilization.
After all, they are an advanced civilization with very advanced scientific and technological strength. Even if Ning Chen's operation is carried out in secret, it is impossible to hide it from their eyes.
However, after a detailed investigation of this matter, they did not get more information about it, and they did not even know where this high-dimensional quantum energy body came from and how it suddenly appeared near them.
However, one thing they can be sure of is that there is another advanced civilization that has noticed their "space civilization" and has plans to take some abnormal actions.
After some discussion, they formulated countermeasures for this matter.
"No matter which civilization wants to confront us, we will not be afraid of them! Let them continue to come and see which civilization is stronger!"
"This is just a meaningless trick. It will not have any impact on our civilization. I don't know what the meaning of doing this is, but we will continue to mine antimatter energy!"
"We will not take any other civilization in the universe seriously. We will continue to expand the power of our civilization. In this way, the civilization that plays tricks will be discovered and eradicated by us sooner or later."
