Sergey wanted to shift the focus of Yuan Yu and Qin Jianguo's pinch from historical knowledge to dinner content, but before the two of them pinched, he suddenly felt a vibration from the wristband on his wrist.

"Who is calling? Are you asking me out for dinner?" Qin Jianguo also looked at his wristband strangely, only to find that the wristbands of the other three present besides Mint all displayed important notifications.

Yuan Yu also turned on the holographic projection on the wristband, and saw a notification from the Fleet Committee.Before she could take a closer look, Qin Jianguo had already clicked on the voice: "Reminder from the Ministry of Information: Interstellar explorer Anna Hilbert (Anna Hilbert) will arrive at the Zhaohui Space Station in 15 minutes and 33 seconds. Watch live."

"This interstellar expedition lasted 11 years, and the discovery report has been sent back to the general brain and can now be retrieved." Qin Jianguo's wristband issued a voice synthesized by the committee, "The main discovery of this interstellar expedition is an intelligent life According to preliminary measurements, the level of civilization is about 0.15, please refer to the discovery report for details. Next, we will connect to the Zhaohui Space Station and broadcast live the scene of the return of Comrade Anna Hilbert driving the 'Nebula'."

"Wow, level 0.15 civilization, is that roughly equivalent to a slavery society?" Qin Jianguo sighed, "It's amazing, this is only more than ten light-years away from the frontier of the fleet's exploration—why don't you see it?"

He saw that Yuan Yu had turned off the wristband, and Sergey had also turned off the news broadcast. He looked at Yuan Yu with some concern, and secretly signaled to Qin Jianguo to turn it off.

Qin Jianguo quickly closed the wristband, but he was still a little confused, so he quietly asked Sergey, "What's going on here?"

"Anna Hilbert is - that person." Sergey turned his head and said to him in a very small voice.

Qin Jianguo's eyes widened. He didn't react for a while, but then he realized what Sergey meant and was very surprised.He didn't know who the woman who betrayed Yuan Yu was. He only heard that she was an interstellar explorer. However, he never thought that that person turned out to be the famous interstellar explorer Anna Hilbert of the fleet.

Even Qin Jianguo, whose work has nothing to do with interstellar travel, has heard of Anna Hilbert. She can be called the greatest interstellar explorer in the fleet.She was almost the first person in the fleet who dared to drive a continuous curvature spaceship to penetrate into the unknown star field for more than a hundred days. At that time, it caused a lot of controversy. Some people thought that this kind of long-distance and long-term exploration would put the personal safety of the explorer at the top of the list. in unpredictable danger.Later, humans came into contact with ISIS, and the fleet obtained wormhole technology after merging with ISIS civilization, and this problem was fundamentally resolved.However, it was precisely because of Hilbert's 180-day interstellar journey that the average distance of a single expedition by the fleet's interstellar explorers increased from less than one light-year to about 1.5 light-years.

After that, the fleet's curvature drive technology has been developed a little bit more, and Anna Hilbert made a more famous expedition.This expedition is simply incredible. It took her 38 years to start from the farthest end of the fleet's known star field and go straight into the completely unknown mysterious space.That interstellar journey explored an unknown star field of more than [-] light-years, and while breaking the fleet record, it also showed the world that the most advanced curvature drive technology at that time was enough to support human beings for such a long interstellar journey.

And this time the expedition started 11 years ago. Anna Hilbert set off in the most advanced curvature spacecraft "Xingyun" 11 years ago. Qin Jianguo has also heard about it, but her expedition is not for breaking through anything Fleet Records, but simply doing her job.So this trip didn't get much attention, but she found a planet with civilization, which was completely beyond everyone's expectations.

To know the general interstellar exploration, the main meaning is to understand the space farther away. In addition to expanding the star map of the fleet, it is more important to continuously increase the understanding of the star field beyond the known star field of the fleet, so as to prevent the invasion from higher forces. Even if a similar threat occurs, the probes placed by interstellar explorers on the frontier will be able to directly transmit information through wormholes. Enter the main brain (without crossing such a long space in between), and buy time for the fleet's main brain to evacuate before the attack arrives.

As for any particularly valuable celestial bodies that can be discovered during interstellar exploration, most people do not expect it.First of all, for the current fleet development, almost all stars and most ordinary rocky and gaseous planets can provide the energy, elements and compounds needed by the fleet, without having to use certain types of celestial bodies, so it can generally be called "Valuable" celestial bodies refer to planets with life; secondly, because the speed of fleet development is limited after all, a large number of planets with rich organic matter or rare elements that have been discovered are enough to meet the needs of development. It is a waste of resources.Therefore, most of the small number of "valuable" celestial bodies discovered by interstellar explorers will be protected first, and will be developed later when there is time, or they will be directly handed over to them just like the habitable planets discovered by the fleet. To a colony planet alliance.

But planets with civilizations can be different from those "valuable" celestial bodies.The discovery of minerals or even creatures are just ordinary resources, but the discovery of civilization means the discovery of other intelligent life forms.Those intelligent life forms can think and have self-awareness just like human beings, Yisi, and Geer—this is a very magical feeling, which makes people feel incredible, but it seems to be in the "alien land" of all people in the cold universe. "Meet an "old friend" who is equally intelligent and able to understand the loneliness wandering in the universe.

(Note: According to the dark forest theory, since there is no chain of suspicion in direct contact, there is no possibility of a dark forest strike between civilizations that are directly discovered through exploration and have relatively sufficient communication)

Qin Jianguo used to admire an interstellar explorer like Anna Hilbert who dared to change the "old rules" of an industry, but now he learned that this person was the guy who severely hurt Yuan Yu.This inevitably split the image of Anna Hilbert in his impression, but he soon realized that how a person makes groundbreaking achievements has nothing to do with her character in dealing with her family. As far as the former is concerned, Anna Hilbert is a model of an interstellar explorer, but this does not prevent Qin Jianguo from vowing that if he can see that guy, he must first give her a good beating.

He felt that since that guy came back and would arrive at Zhaohui in 15 minutes, it would be better to go now and question her in front of other onlookers: her "Xingyun" probably used a lot of Yuanyu to participate The technology developed and improved, Yuan Yu's research on the curvature drive was even for her at first, but she actually betrayed Yuan Yu, can she live with her conscience? !
