Chapter 267 Silent Deep Space,/Destruction of Star City

An Li stepped out of the ocean of books, rubbed her temples, took off her glasses and put them aside. She reached for a glass of water on the table, and the host reminded her.

"Diplomat An Li, this glass of water has been here for 247 years."

It has been 247 years since An Li last stood up and moved.

It is lucky to be born in this era. Not only do you have a very long life, but you don't even need to take the initiative to eat. The quark robots in your body can transport moisture and nutrients in the surrounding air through your pores to maintain your body's consumption.

Of course, general air does not have nutrients, which requires specific mist to carry. This mist is used in part for medical treatment, for patients who cannot eat, and part for some individuals with anorexia who don't like to eat. Of course, some normal individuals who also don't like to eat can also use it.

This is not high-tech now. Some citizens may not have eaten a bite of food with their mouths in their entire lives. Even in some star systems of the Federation, because of laziness and unwillingness to talk, this tradition lasted for 20,000 years. In the end, some citizens' mouths gradually became smaller, and in the end, some babies were born without mouths.

There are so many wonders in the world.

An Li likes to eat, such as desserts, but she prefers reading to eating. When she is immersed in reading, she doesn't seem to be disturbed by hunger.

There may be cosmic bacteria in the water that has been stored for 247 years. Although the quark robot can handle it, there are too many uncertainties in the universe, so it is recommended that everyone should not drink food and water that has been stored for too long.

An Li asked the host to change a cup, and it didn't take long, just 10 seconds.

She drank the water to moisten her throat, and then said: "Wake up all the dormant people, the end of the original universe Silk Road has arrived."

An Li learned from the information that this place was very prosperous before, but now it is extremely empty. According to the analysis of the host, the particle density in the vacuum here is 1,000 times higher than other areas.

"The Silk Road has disappeared, and all the star cities and lives have been bombarded into particles. This is a deconstruction from a microscopic level. Collect some particles in the vacuum and keep them for analysis."

"Send a message to /Star City now to explain our purpose."

"If we don't get a reply within 20 years, then we will force our way into /Star City."

The Federation can no longer sit and wait for death at this time. No one knows whether the next to be destroyed will be the entire star field of Tiancang V, where there are tens of trillions of lives.

All the dormant people have awakened and walked into the cockpit of the spacecraft in twos and threes.

The entire spacecraft is very large, but there are only 31 passengers in total.

These 31 are absolute elites, including Royce before.

"Get ready and build a micro factory."

The micro factory is a larger and more precise factory that combines the advantages of the special metals of the Olive Branch Civilization. It also has a name called the universal factory, which can be understood as a next-generation 3D printer. It can manufacture almost everything.

The main body of the micro factory is a 3x2 meter machine. An Li asked the spacecraft to approach an asteroid and then put the micro factory on it.

The asteroids on the Silk Road that originally had no life were not affected by the weapons of the Olive Branch Civilization, so there are actually some asteroids here.

After the micro-factory was turned on, a cloud of fog rushed out of it. These weapons quickly decomposed the asteroids and transported the materials into the factory.

The factory will process it into various parts, and then slowly and automatically build it into a giant factory. The factory began to produce heavy industry. In just half a month, an asteroid with a diameter of 10 kilometers disappeared.

A large number of 10-meter-class drones began to explore the surrounding environment, collect small celestial bodies in the vacuum, and then continuously produce larger and more comprehensive interstellar platforms. This requires a longer time, and 20 years is far from enough.

After the platform was half built, the Red Dragon spacecraft headed towards /Star City. In 20 years, they did not receive any response.

An Li set the execution content in the factory, a complete super-hedge material transfer device, which will be completed in the next 300 years.

...

The Red Dragon spacecraft flies very fast. The place where they originally docked was less than 3 light years away from /Star City.

After another 20 years, they have reached the outer edge of the star system where /Star City is located. /Star City now looks no different from before, at least in appearance.

However, as they get closer and closer, the weapon systems and defense systems on the spacecraft are all turned on, and An Li feels something is wrong.

It's too quiet!

The entire starry sky is completely lifeless.

The /Star City body wrapped around the star, and even the giant warships separated before, are all hanging alone in the universe. The spacecraft's detector shows that an asteroid is approaching, and then when it gets close, the host uses a telescope to see that it is not an asteroid at all, but a 26-kilometer-long giant fragment, which seems to be part of /Star City.

"It feels like something happened here."

The Red Dragon spacecraft continued to approach, but no spacecraft came to stop it. It was so quiet here that An Li thought of the feeling of standing alone on the curfew street when she was a child.

There was no light there, only the starlight in the universe to guide her. The dark street was like the bloody mouth of a giant beast, quietly opened, waiting for people to walk into it and then suddenly closed.

In an instant, An Li got goose bumps all over his body.

"It doesn't look like there is life here." A scholar said. He used the spacecraft to look for it, but he didn't find an object that was actively flying.

The depressing atmosphere spread in the cabin. An Li asked the spacecraft to speed up and reach the sky above /Star City.

Getting closer and closer.

Some small fragments were observed. From a close distance, it can be found that the surface of the entire /Star City is actually fragmented, and there is no complete "black box" building.

The regular ups and downs of the square are just like broken obsidian. There is no life between the cities.

An Li took a deep breath: "/Star City, destroyed?"

What kind of existence solved /Star City?

The answer is self-evident.

It seems that this place has been destroyed for a long time. An Li suspects that it may be the same time as the disappearance of the Universal Silk Road.

"This information must be sent back first." A scholar is already operating. There is no tachyon communication equipment in the spacecraft. That thing can only be installed on giant ships. The volume of one is larger than 100 Red Dragon spacecraft.

It takes 270 years to send this information back.

"Perhaps we should explore the surface of Star City. Is there anything in common between the destruction of Star City and the destruction of Silk Road? If we can find it, then this trip will not be in vain."

Since Star City has disappeared, diplomacy is naturally empty talk.

Everyone came here ready to talk about death, and no one present was afraid.

"Okay!"

"I agree!"

An Li saw that everyone agreed: "Okay, start landing."

"The area of ​​Star City may be comparable to the area of ​​all the star cities in the entire federation combined. We also have a micro-factory that can use the materials of Star City to manufacture some exploration robots. It would be best if we can find living individuals in Star City."

All of them left the spacecraft wearing armor and stood steadily on the surface of Star City.
