Wei Feng also had the same feeling for what Chu Hai said. If human civilization was at its peak in the previous stage, then it is indeed a trend of going downhill now.

Human civilization has experienced a peak period, which was a national era hundreds of years ago. At that time, fossil energy supported the prosperity of human civilization. But the good times did not last long. With the growth of the total population and the depletion of fossil energy, the peak period passed. It was not until the mastery of controlled nuclear fusion technology that human civilization ushered in a new peak period again. But now, the total population has begun to explode again...

Wei Feng believes that there are two indicators to measure whether human civilization is at its peak. One is the total amount of resources that can be controlled, and the other is the total population. If the total population is certain, the more resources the richer the per capita material. If the total resources are certain, the lower the total population, the richer the per capita material.

So now there is a key question: Is the ratio between the population of human civilization and the total amount of controllable resources really unbalanced?

From a macro perspective, the energy in the solar system can actually be considered infinite, because the four planets of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune contain almost endless hydrogen energy. According to common sense, since human civilization has mastered the technology of controlled nuclear fusion, human civilization should no longer be troubled by energy. But don’t forget that mining energy also requires cost, and the scale of mining energy cannot be expanded unlimitedly. It always has an upper limit. After reaching this upper limit, it will be difficult for human civilization to increase its energy output again.

At the same time, other aspects of restrictions also exist, such as the limitations of grain production, the living area, etc. It is these numerous restrictions that lead to the limited population that the entire solar system can carry. After the population reaches a certain level, if you still want to keep the per capita material demand not lower, then there is only one way out to colonize aliens.

However, if you want to colonize aliens, you will encounter the trouble of "dead knot". How to break this dead knot? Wei Feng doesn't know.

Just as Chu Hai said, the time traveler has a unique advantage in observing the trend of human civilization. Through Chu Hai's description, Wei Feng also felt a little bit of the brewing of crisis. Wei Feng knew that these things that appeared in human civilization are just signs. It will inevitably continue to develop and become more and more serious. If no technological breakthroughs have occurred, then... human civilization may return to chaos or even war.

This is caused by the development trend of mankind, and it is not transferred by personal power. Even if a head of state appears in human civilization, as long as he cannot bring technological breakthroughs, he will not be able to reverse this trend.

Wei Feng sighed a long time and gave up his contemplation. Wei Feng felt that a noose was already stuck on the neck of human civilization, and it was quietly tightening as time slowly slipped away. If human civilization could find a way to open the noose before hanging itself, then human civilization could be reborn. If it could not be found, it would only disappear quietly into this dark and cold universe, just like many alien civilizations that might exist in speculation and have already perished before leaving the parent galaxy, and they could not make their own cry to the universe until death.

Wei Feng's heart suddenly moved. Because at this time, Wei Feng thought of the fragment of the unknown civilization that he had discovered.

"This unknown civilization has probably opened the dead knot and found a way to sail at high speed or even super-light speed. If more relics about them can be obtained... Maybe we can find enough technology to save our human civilization from it. If so, human civilization will not have to be troubled by this dead knot."

Wei Feng knew that all these ideas about the future destiny of human civilization were just speculations. Apart from time, no one could verify the authenticity of these ideas. Even except for Wei Feng and Chu Hai and others, people who normally live in the solar system would not have such ideas. However, the sensitivity of being a time traveler made Wei Feng agree with these speculations from the bottom of his heart.

"Because we are time travelers, we can detect these trends. You are not, so you cannot."

"Since we have noticed this trend in advance, we have the obligation to do something as a member of human civilization." Wei Feng thought silently, "Do my best efforts to search for the remains of alien civilizations and search for the technological heritage they may stay here, so as to help human civilization open this dead knot as easily as possible. This is what I can do."

"Ye Luo." Wei Feng called out. Ye Luo's unique neutral voice immediately appeared in Wei Feng's ear: "Captain, what are your instructions?"

Wei Feng said: "From now on, I will grant you the authority to fine-tune the route. You can freely allocate the remaining fuel in addition to ensuring the necessary outbound and the fuel required for acceleration and deceleration of the return journey. This fuel is used for... If you find a suspicious target in the distance, you can adjust the route to the target to observe closely."

"At the same time, select four detectors and transform them, and then launch them into four directions on the left and right upper and lower sides of the spacecraft, so that they can maintain a relative stationary motion state with the spacecraft, thereby expanding the spacecraft's detection vision."

There are detector reserves in the Xinghai spacecraft. These detectors were originally planned to be activated after Weifeng arrived at the Nanmen 2 galaxy, but Weifeng has decided to enable them in advance.

"Okay Captain, do you need to report these things to the Earth? You have the autonomy to do these things, so you can determine yourself whether you want to report them on the Earth."

Wei Feng hesitated for a moment, and then replied: "Don't report to the earth. This is my personal behavior."

Wei Feng is sure that the earth must not agree with his own speculation, so he will definitely not agree with what he did. Since that is the case, it would be better not to tell the earth. Anyway, they don’t know what he has done here.

"Okay, you need to complete the detector transformation, and I don't have this ability." Ye Luo said.

"No problem." Wei Feng agreed immediately.

During the training process that lasted for more than 20 years, Wei Feng had mastered these skills proficiently. It is still competent to transform a detector. Therefore, in daily recovery training, replacement of damaged parts, and eliminating the bugs accumulated during the operation of leaves, Wei Feng had another job.

The transformation of the detector was completed one and a half months later, so they were fired out by Wei Feng. Compared with the Xinghai spacecraft, their relative movement speed was very slow, about ten kilometers per second. It took about a year and a half to fly to the designated position at such a speed. This time seemed very long, but it was nothing to Wei Feng. Wei Feng had nothing else, but it was quite time.

After reaching the designated position, they will slow down and maintain a relatively stationary state with the Xinghai spacecraft. The Xinghai spacecraft is advancing at a speed of 3,000 kilometers per second. They maintain a relatively stationary state with the spacecraft, that is, they also advance at a speed of 3,000 kilometers per second. This is inertial navigation and does not require additional fuel. However, the detection instruments equipped on them can expand the vision of the Xinghai spacecraft more than several times. In this way, the possibility of discovering alien civilization ruins will naturally be greatly improved.

"Captain, I will complete the subsequent fixed detector position. Now, it's time to hibernate." One day two months later, Ye Luo once again calmly issued a notice of hibernation to Wei Feng.

"Okay." Wei Feng nodded, and after some preparations, he lay in the hibernation cabin again.

It was still the same process, and the Xinghai spacecraft once again returned to the cold and darkness. Unlike before, there were four more detectors, which were small but very powerful, in the four directions of the spacecraft, advancing together.

Time passed slowly, until one day later, the survival system was opened, the functional system was opened, and then the hibernation compartment was opened, and Wei Feng opened his eyes again.

Every time he hibernates, it feels like he dies and then comes back to life. Every time he wakes up, Wei Feng feels that he seems to have been sleeping for ten thousand years as long as he has been sleeping for ten thousand years. But this time he feels a little different. For some reason, Wei Feng feels that his sleep time this time seems to be a little short.

"Ye Luo, is there nearly ten years?" After regaining his thinking ability, Wei Feng asked Ye Luo this question.

"No, Captain, it's only six years since you fell asleep last time." Ye Luo replied, "The reason I woke you up in advance is because I encountered an emergency. According to your settings, I do not have the authority to handle this incident by myself."

"Emergency?" Wei Feng immediately asked, "What happened to you?"

"At 700 million kilometers away from the straight line of the spacecraft and 400 million kilometers perpendicular to the channel, I received an unknown signal of unknown meaning." Ye Luo replied calmly, "If we maintain the current route, we will pass by 400 million kilometers away from the signal source in about two days and four hours. How do you plan to deal with this incident?" (To be continued...)
