My science and technology museum

After calculating the specific location coordinates of the source star civilization fire, the Civilization Administration Headquarters cooperated with the Dauntless to conduct a space jump test. This was something that had long been determined.

Now that the position has been grasped, Mo will naturally not regret it temporarily.

What's more, Mo has independent consciousness, and he also understands that exploring the fire of the Source Star civilization may be able to complete the missing information.

After all, both of them were not born in the current universe, so there should be some connection.

Seeing that Xu Lei had said this, the model was too embarrassed to refuse. After pondering for a moment, its virtual energy figure nodded and said: "Then get ready to start. However, if the test fails, I hope you will give up on starting the source star civilization." idea."

Xu Lei's expression remained unchanged, but a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He knew Mo's worries very well.

This was because he was afraid that after he failed the space jump test, he would rashly go to the outer reaches of the galaxy to find the spark of civilization.

After all, he is also the sixth inspector personally appointed by the Civilization Administration Headquarters. If he accidentally dies outside, it will also weaken the overall strength of the galaxy.

However, he didn't expose it, and just replied calmly: "Don't worry, I won't put myself in danger easily."

But again no definite answer was given.

It's not that he is too stubborn to take risks.

It is mainly related to the origin of the Science and Technology Museum. If you want not to leave any regrets in your life, you must visit this place.

Of course, his answer was not perfunctory. If he was not sure, he would definitely not act rashly, even if the entire space jump warship project was in vain.

Just saying that, he himself is very confident in this test.

During the eight months of modeling and calculating the coordinates of the Source Star Civilization Fire, he conducted in-depth research on the Intrepid and the Civilization Administration Headquarters, and used the Intrepid's brain to try simulation tests, and the results were basically satisfactory. , has a greater success rate.

Relying on this information, it is basically impossible for the next test to go wrong.

Unless the model deliberately does not want the test to succeed.

And this probability is basically zero.

After hearing Xu Lei's answer, the model didn't know what he was thinking, but he didn't say much.

Xu Lei was then allowed to return to the Fearless.

As for him, he started the energy gathering program at the headquarters and began to prepare for the recharging of the Dauntless.

Choosing to test the space jump after calculating the coordinates of the source civilization's fire was to avoid wasting energy, so Xu Lei must be in the control hall of the Fearless at this time.

As long as the space jump engine successfully opens the wormhole space channel, the Intrepid will enter with the Blue Space.

…

"After preparing for so long, we finally have a result today."

After driving the Golden Crow back to the Fearless, Xu Lei immediately entered the core control hall, stood alone in front of the console, raised his eyes and examined the main screen showing the overall data of the battleship, feeling a surge of emotions in his heart.

The whole person was in a state of high tension and excitement out of control.

Even though he had lived for most of his life and experienced countless bloody storms, it was still difficult to suppress his emotions at this moment.

After all, this matter is his biggest secret.

From the moment he became the cheap owner of this mysterious science and technology museum, he was destined to change the future of human civilization.

In fact, this is exactly the case.

Now the secret of the Science and Technology Museum will be revealed to him, and his thirst for knowledge will finally be fully satisfied.

The origin of the Science and Technology Museum?

Who created it?

Why are there collections of civilization and technology exhibits from the entire universe?

I believe these secrets will be answered during this trip to the outer reaches of the galaxy.

He feels this way.

He was convinced.

As his mind was running rapidly, a large number of thoughts flashed through his mind. Xu Lei paused for more than ten seconds, and finally came to his senses after his emotions gradually calmed down.

When his attention was focused on the main screen again, Xu Lei stopped delaying and immediately issued instructions to Zhi Nao.

"Test the performance of the entire ship."

"Prepare to start the space jump engine."

"checking……"

"The whole ship is normal."

"The space jump engine is starting..."

Intelligent Brain's prompts sounded one after another in the control hall. At the same time, the Dauntless, which had been immersed in the Silver Core for a long time, finally began to show its fangs.

From the outside, the space jump engine was successfully started.

And under the energy transmission of several anti-matter power engines, a space ray was shot from the front end of the Dauntless like last time.

Up to this point, the process is basically the same as the last test on Titan. Without the injection of new external power, the wormhole space channel will still not be successfully opened.

It ended in failure.

But at this moment, I saw a sudden change in the tail of the Fearless.

In the blink of an eye, a square pyramid was dented.

If you observe carefully, you will find that the size of this square pyramid is exactly the same as the tip of the bottom of the Civilization Administration Headquarters.

From the beginning of the design of the Dauntless, it was considered to use the energy from the Civilization Administration Headquarters, so the connection between the Dauntless and the Blue Space would naturally be done. In addition to ensuring that the energy does not escape during the transmission process, it can also prevent it from being trapped in the wormhole space channel. The two battleships separated.

If the two are separated, it is easy to encounter danger, and it will be difficult for either party to return alone.

After all, without the space jump, they can only rely on the speed of the battleship to fly back to the galaxy on their own.

The degree of difficulty can be imagined.

Otherwise, why would Xu Lei spend a lot of money to research space jump battleships.

Since the entire Blue Space was under the control of Mo, almost as soon as the Fearless was ready, the inverted pyramid-style fortress left its original position and flew straight towards the Fearless.

Eventually the two were closely integrated.

Speaking of countless epochs that have passed, this is the first time that the headquarters of the Civilization Administration has been moved.

And it still docked with a battleship.

No wonder Mo didn't want to agree when Xu Lei first proposed this matter.

The successful docking of the two most powerful warships in the galaxy has also changed the overall shape of the Dreadnought.

If viewed from a vertical perspective, it looks like a Star Destroyer stuck on a pyramid.

It does look a bit nondescript.

Of course, this is not the time to appreciate beautiful things. As long as it is practical and achieves the desired effect, it doesn't matter what the shape is.

Facts have proved that Xu Lei's judgment was not wrong.

With the continuous delivery of high-level energy from the Civilization Administration Headquarters, the space ray finally began to expand in diameter, gradually forming a huge vacuum cylinder.

Just enough for the Intrepid and Civilization Authority headquarters to enter.

Obviously this space jump test was a complete success.

At the same time, in the control hall of the Fearless, a new prompt from Zhi Nao finally sounded.

"The wormhole space channel has been opened."

"Please enter the jump coordinates..."

Hearing this, Xu Lei did not dare to hesitate and quickly manually input the coordinates of the star field about 1.4 million light-years away, which was calculated by the model.

After completion, immediately lie down in the safety cabin in the control hall.

Jumping through space is completely different from using a stargate, and in a way more dangerous.

During the jump, if you do not enter a special safety cabin, you will most likely lose your life.

Especially for vulnerable humans, this is a very high-risk thing.

It is no exaggeration to say that the survival rate is very low.

Therefore, Xu Lei did not take anyone with him this time. He only installed some frigates and space combat robots in the belly of the Dauntless cabin.

As the safety cabin where Xu Lei was located automatically closed, the Dauntless was taken over by Intelligent Brain.

Continue to the next step.

Speaking of which, with the physical strength of Xu Lei's eternal body, he wouldn't be greatly affected even if he didn't use the safety cabin, but he didn't want to risk his life on this matter.

In any case, this is his first experience of space jump.

One has to be cautious.

"Jump coordinates entered."

"All crew members are requested to enter the safety cabin immediately."

"The Intrepid will begin its space jump in five seconds."

"5"

"4"

…

"2"

"1"

"Leaping..."

Under the control of Zhinao, when the countdown displayed on the main screen ended, the Fearless flew into the passage with the Civilization Administration headquarters at the tail.

Almost at the same time that they disappeared, the entrance to the wormhole space was closed again because there was no energy input.

If we didn't use the detection equipment of advanced civilizations to check, we would never know that a warship had just made a space jump here.

It is also worth mentioning that this time the Civilization Administration Headquarters left with Xu Lei without informing the other five inspectors. To put it bluntly, it felt like they were both eloping.

Of course, I did this for my own reasons.

First of all, it is not an order from the headquarters. Uma Louhong and other inspectors will basically not return to the headquarters.

In addition, they have many things to deal with, so they will not know about the departure of the Civilization Administration Headquarters.

On the contrary, if they were told that the Civilization Administration Headquarters was leaving the Milky Way, they would inevitably be worried. Once the news leaked out, it would actually destabilize the civilizations within the Milky Way. By then, the situation would be even more dangerous.

Naturally, Xu Lei would not have any objections to Mo's decision.

Anyway, with the Dauntless space jump, if things go well, we can return to the Milky Way soon.

——

In the safety cabin, Xu Lei was basically in a dormant state of sleep.

Only when the battleship breaks away from the jump will he be awakened by Zhi Nao.

So he didn't know how much time had passed.

In the empty and deserted control hall of the Dreadnaught, although there was not a single crew member visible, the images constantly jumping on the console showed that the Dauntless was still in operation.

It operates stably under the control of the intelligent brain.

Did not crash during the voyage in the wormhole space.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

Sudden.

With a crisp sound of alloy friction, the safety cabin located in the center of the control hall was automatically opened.

Then a figure suddenly sat up.

Looking carefully, the first thing that catches the eye is a face that even Bai Gu has to give up. Even if he is wearing a simple blue uniform, he still can't hide his noble temperament.

"Is this... the jump over?"

Xu Lei gradually regained consciousness. After seeing that he had woken up from the safety cabin, he suddenly realized that the space jump of the Dauntless might have ended.

Otherwise he wouldn't have been awakened at this time.

Thinking of the final result of the jump, Xu Lei couldn't wait to delay in his eagerness.

Immediately come out of the safety cabin and walk towards the front console.

At this time, Zhinao seemed to have guessed what Xu Lei was thinking, and immediately sent a new reminder.

"This jump is over."

"The total distance of the jump is two hundred thousand light years."

"What?"

"Only two hundred thousand light years?"

After hearing the data reported by Zhinao, Xu Lei immediately stopped and frowned.

Unexpectedly, this space jump only reached a distance of 200,000 light years.

However, he quickly put away this disappointment.

After all, with the current technological level of human civilization, it is not easy to successfully reproduce the space jump engine, and the performance will definitely be greatly compromised.

In addition, it is not relying on the dark matter power engine to promote the transition, so it is normal to only reach this distance.

At least it's much more powerful than Star Gate.

The only regret is that according to a space jump distance of 200,000 light years, if you want to successfully reach the coordinate position of the source star civilization fire calculated by the model, you must make at least seven space jumps.

Mainly every jump is a risk for the Intrepid.

In particular, this will cause damage to the space jump engine.

If only two or three space jumps are made, even a replica of the space jump engine can withstand it.

But if it is done seven times in a row, the risk level will show a straight-up trend, and the situation will become very dangerous.

But in this current situation, there is no better solution.

When things have reached this point, we can only take risks and try. Anyway, we can't go back at this time.

The thought stayed here, Xu Lei quickly made a decision in his mind, and then turned his attention to the main screen.

Check the detailed data of the jump you just made.

Judging from the real-time data of each component of the Dreadnought provided by Zhinao, this jump did not have much impact on the battleship. Obviously, the whole process went smoothly.

But when he noticed the earth and star time displayed in the lower right corner of the main screen, his eyes suddenly widened.

"How can it be?"

A lot of questions suddenly appeared in my mind: "Only a quarter of an hour has passed?"

It turned out that only a quarter of an hour had actually passed from the time the Dauntless conducted a space jump test in the Silver Core to the time he was awakened by the brain and came out of the safety cabin. Calculating this, the actual jump was probably a matter of seconds.

Much faster than Stargate.

Naturally, Xu Lei couldn't understand the knowledge involved at this level, but it did have a high-dimensional feeling.

It's like the Dauntless actually entered a high-dimensional space when it made a space jump, so when it ended the jump and came out of the high-dimensional space, time didn't change much.

You must know that as the cheap owner of the Science and Technology Museum, he knows this feeling very well.

After all, the Science and Technology Museum is a very special high-dimensional space.

No time will pass there.

It seems that it is always at a certain position on the progress bar and cannot be dragged forward or backward.

But if you think about it carefully, this is a good thing. At least it can greatly shorten the time of their trip to the outer reaches of the galaxy and return to the galaxy faster.

So after temporarily suppressing the matter about the space jump in his heart, Xu Lei asked Zhinao again: "How long will it take to make the next space jump?"

"Three days."

Intelligent Brain gives an accurate answer.

After each space jump, the battleship and the space jump engine must have time to adjust their performance to the optimal state.

In addition, the Civilization Administration Headquarters also needs to re-gather energy, so it only needs three days of cooling time.

Of course, for these special life forms with long lifespans, three days in a battleship passed very quickly without almost any feeling.

In addition, this cooling time is not fixed.

If it is the complete version of the space jump engine collected in the Science and Technology Museum, coupled with the dark matter power engine, maybe it only takes a few hours of cooling time for the battleship to make another space jump.

But considering the situation of the Fearless, Xu Lei still felt that there was no need to rush for a few days.

After thinking for a while, he told Zhinao: "Put the next jump in ten days. We don't need to be in a hurry."

"OK."

Zhinao does not have independent consciousness like Xingtong. As long as Xu Lei has the highest authority under his instructions, it naturally has no way to refuse.

While answering, this instruction was recorded.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a familiar voice coming from beside him.

"You did the right thing. We only have one chance, so we should be cautious."

Hearing the sound, Xu Lei turned around and saw that it was the virtual energy projection of the super intelligent brain model of the director of the Civilization Administration Bureau.

At present, the Dauntless and the Blue Space are in a bound state. As the super brain of the galaxy, Mo can naturally easily break through the Dauntless's brain defense and reach the control hall.

Naturally, Xu Lei was not surprised by this scene, and replied with a calm expression: "I'm just trying to avoid risks."

I don't know what Mo was thinking about, but the virtual energy projection looked a little complicated. He paused for a few seconds before speaking again: "I really didn't expect that you could develop a space jump battleship and successfully achieve the jump. You must know that this is a technology that far exceeds the current level of the Milky Way."

The model has its own independent consciousness.

When he first calculated the coordinates of the Source Star Civilization's fire, he didn't think that Xu Lei could search for it.

After all, the distance is too far.

Even he couldn't give an answer because of the loss of data.

But Xu Lei relied on a third-level civilization in the solar system to build the Dreadnought in just a few years.

Although he still relied on the help of the Civilization Administration in the end, Xu Lei's achievements in scientific research cannot be denied, and its value is simply unimaginable.

In fact, it has been under his surveillance since the day human civilization was born.

But he did not interfere except to provide necessary guidance.

Until he found that he could no longer calculate this weak civilization.

According to the development of civilization under normal circumstances, it will take at least a hundred years for humans to reach first-level civilization and gradually become aware of the existence of the Civilization Administration and extraterrestrial civilization.

But because of Xu Lei's existence, human civilization reached level three in a short period of time.

He knew very well that there was a secret hidden in Xu Lei, but he had no way of knowing it.

Later, he also wanted Xu Lei's influence on the solar system to gradually expand to the Milky Way, so he was specially appointed as the sixth inspector.

But even so, Xu Lei's performance still surprised him one after another.

Especially this space jump test.

Because if we continue to develop according to this trend, I believe that in a few years, the Milky Way will give birth to a fourth-level civilization, and security will be more guaranteed by then.

Zoom in to the entire universe, and the Milky Way becomes insignificant.

It is still possible to be invaded by a more powerful civilization.

Xu Lei wasn't quite sure what Mo was really thinking. Faced with this compliment, he could only agree: "It's also a great surprise for me to be able to successfully achieve a space jump. However, if we can find the spark of civilization in the Source Star, we may be able to truly realize the space jump." By improving our technical level, even Director you can hope to retrieve the missing data."

He is not just talking nonsense. Judging from the information obtained so far, both Yuanxing and Mo belong to the previous universe.

Maybe there is a deeper relationship between the two.

Finding the fire of civilization left behind by the Source Star will naturally lead to a deeper understanding of the situation in the previous universe.

To this, Mo just replied casually.

"I hope so."

But it can still be seen from his expression that he is also looking forward to it.

With Mo, the super intelligent brain that gave birth to self-awareness, Xu Lei was not too bored, and the two parties kept chatting for the next few days.

Ten days passed in a flash like this.

Since the Fearless had long been prepared to make another space jump, after arriving at the time specified by Xu Lei, it carried out the process step by step based on the last experience.

However, it is worth mentioning that at this time, Mo came up with a new thing.

"I suggest that before each space jump, you send a frigate to monitor the situation in the nearby star field to make sure that there are no warships from other civilizations. Otherwise, it will be very detrimental to us if outsiders detect space fluctuations."

"Especially after a few jumps, we get further and further away from the galaxy."

In the control hall of the Fearless, Xu Lei, who was preparing to make his second space jump, suddenly became active after hearing Mo's words.

There are definitely not a few powerful civilizations in the universe.

In the Andromeda Galaxy, a neighbor of the Milky Way alone, there is a civilization whose strength far exceeds that of the Solar System.

If the Dreadnaught is accidentally targeted by a passing civilized warship, there will indeed be a very high risk.

You must know that there are not many third-level civilized warships that can make space jumps.

What's more, the Dauntless and the Civilization Administration Headquarters are not combat capable. If they are surrounded by strange warships, they will not be able to escape, let alone make a space jump.

Therefore, after careful consideration, in order to ensure that he could successfully reach the target area 1.2 million light-years away, Xu Lei decisively followed Mo's suggestion, ordered Zhinao to open the left and right side cabins, and dispatched frigates to investigate the surrounding star field.

After confirming that there are no strange warships, proceed to the space jump.

Although this additional process will waste a lot of time, it is nothing compared to safety.

With the reminder of the super intelligent brain model and Xu Lei's caution, the subsequent space jumps were successfully completed, and the Dreadnought hull was not greatly affected.

As the Dauntless continued to deepen, while gradually approaching the Andromeda Galaxy, it was also about to reach the location of the Source Star Civilization Fire. This made Xu Lei more cautious, fearing that he would encounter a battleship from the Andromeda Galaxy.
