Thirty years later.

In the deep and vast interstellar space.

Inside a high-speed spacecraft.

With a "slam", the hatch cover of the dormant cabin opened, and a naked young man sat up with his head in his arms.

Five minutes later.

The fragmented memories in my mind were quickly put together, and the young man remembered who he was.

He also asked: "Grandpa, are you here?"

After waiting for a while, a voice in my mind replied: "I'm here, it seems that you haven't lost too many memories this time, and you quickly remembered everything."

"I have only been dormant for 30 years, how could I forget so much?"

Shaking his head, Yun Xinghe muttered, but he went to the medical room and lay in the memory recovery machine to recover the small part of his lost memory - other crew members may not have to, but he is the captain and must know everything well.

After the memory was restored, I returned to the Feitian Bridge Control Hall, activated the entire ship's power system, opened the spacecraft's intelligent brain system panel, sat in the captain's position, wrote a short log, and then asked the smart brain: "Xiaokong, how are the status of each system of the Feitian system?"

"Every system is normal, and the spacecraft has sufficient supplies... Captain, during your sleep, Feitian entered a dense meteorite area, but under Xiaokong's control, Feitian successfully passed through the meteorite area without any damage."

"How is Xiaokong, right?"

The intelligent brain said in a boastful tone.

"I did a good job with Xiaokong!"

Yun Xinghe nodded. Feitian Intelligent Brain Xiaokong is no longer the average intelligent brain with the previous level of intelligence, only level 7. After upgrading, the crystal stone composed of pure solid un elements stored by the Tree God has become the "new core" of the Smart Brain Xiaokong now after clearing all the information of the Tree God (including the soul).

Once this new core was replaced, the intelligence level of the smart brain Xiaokong immediately upgraded from level 7 to level 22, which is six levels higher than the main control intelligent brain of the D-level interstellar warship, the computing speed is 8 orders and the storage capacity is 7 orders.

It can be said that the core of the spacecraft built with floating stone is the core hardware replacement target that almost all spacecraft intelligent brains dream of.

The most valuable thing on Feitian is now this core.

Therefore, after the birth of the Intelligent Brain Xiaokong, with its powerful computing power, Berekov, who calculated the route, was almost laid off (Xiaokong's calculations were faster and more accurate), the helmsman Sugaru was completely removed from the work (Xiaokong's control was more stable), and the repairman Du Xiaopang's workload was reduced by half (the spacecraft has automatic maintenance function) - Intelligent Brain Xiaokong's excellent working ability, except for the captain Yun Xinghe, everyone developed a sense of crisis and said to themselves: Are you a little redundant on this spacecraft?

Yun Xinghe was lazy to dispel their random thoughts one by one. Xiaokong was indeed powerful, but it was just artificial intelligence after all. It could help him accomplish 99% of the things, but it could not achieve 100%.

The remaining 1%, and the most important 1%, must be done by these excellent partners.

The next day, Yun Xinghe awakened all his partners.

At this time, the Feitian was less than 1 light year away from the hidden galaxy ahead.

In order to facilitate observation, the speed of Feitian dropped to 0.6c.

"In this large area, even the starlight cannot pass through, but the gravitational fluctuations are quite large. There is really a star system in front of it, a galaxy that hides itself."

Lan Xiulong said, his face was a little incredible.

A "shady curtain" with a diameter of two light years and completely wrapping the entire star system. What level of civilization should be developed to achieve this level of technology?

At least the Blue Star Federation cannot do this.

“It’s so scary.”

Sugaru stepped back and said, "Captain, why don't we go in? If we provoke a powerful civilization that cannot be provoked, wouldn't we trap ourselves?"

"How did this dark curtain be created? I don't know, this may be a technology that we can't understand, but to make the dark curtain so big, it must be very thin, even much thinner than atoms. It is very likely to be made of quarks or even smaller precursors. But no matter what it is made of, it is so thin that it is so thin that the Feitian does not need to use weapons. Just a light poke forward can pierce this dark curtain and enter the interior of this star system."

"The danger may be, but it will not be too dangerous to cope with."

"And, if this civilization is really powerful, why would it build shady curtains and hide itself in it?"

"What's more, it's impossible to hide it like this, and it will even completely expose itself. A star suddenly disappears. How can such a thing not attract the attention of other civilizations?"

"This is equivalent to telling other civilizations: I have hidden myself, you can't see me, you must not find me?"

"Isn't this a self-deception to cover up the bell? Take off your clothes, cover your eyes, and then tell others that he is an invisible person, and no one will notice him."

"The civilization in this stellar system has a high level of technology, but I am really not a complimentary in the IQ. It's so courageous that it makes people laugh."

"We can try to communicate with them, and maybe there will be unexpected gains."

Cloud Xinghe Analysis Road.

Lan Xiulong, who was standing beside him nodded and said:

"There is indeed a problem with the IQ of this civilization. If the stars are wrapped in a confined space, light and heat cannot be emitted, the temperature inside will definitely increase and finally reach a state of heat silence. If there is really a habitable planet inside, this closed state will last for a long time, the habitable planet will become unresilient. This is simply chronic suicide."

"We can't make it completely this way. What if this civilization has deeper considerations? Civilizations that have evolved to this level should not be able to do such stupid things, right? Their scientists will not consider these issues? Or are the politicians' minds hot?"

Mikoto Karashira made her point and felt that things would not be that simple.

"The universe is so great that it is all kinds of strange things. It is normal for some weird things to happen. Also, don't imagine the brain circuits of aliens like us."

Yun Xinghe smiled slightly and said, in fact, the old man in his mind had already told him that the civilization in this dark curtain was indeed a strange thing.

And it is a weirdo who often makes jokes among many civilizations after the Galaxy entered the era of civilization and the United Nations, and even produced many idioms, common sayings and famous quotes.

But the strange civilization in the dark side has reached a point where it amazes other civilizations.

If we can communicate with some technology from this civilization, it will be of great help to scientific progress in some areas of the Federation.

...

A year and a half later.

The Flying Sky approached the edge of the shady curtain.

The scene in front of me makes people feel a little creepy.

black.

Extremely black.

As dark as ink.

Most of the starlight is blocked, and under the dim background starlight behind it, it is like a curtain that swallows everything.

Or, it is like a waterfall in the abyss.

It is extremely large and is an extremely large black sphere.

Like a black hole.

It gives people a feeling that they dare not approach.

It's prohibitive.

But in front of this dark curtain, the Feitian rushed in without slowing down at 0.6 times the speed of light.

I want to penetrate the dark side directly.

In front of the large-scale object that was attacking at high speed, this dark curtain was extremely firm and was not penetrated immediately. Instead, it quickly sunk inward for dozens of kilometers, like a net bag containing something.

But to no avail, in the end, a big hole was washed out within one ten thousandth of a second.

Feitian successfully entered the dark side.

"It's so bright!"

As soon as he entered the dark side, Yun Qiaoqiao exclaimed softly.

It is completely different from the darkness outside. The inside of the darkness is obviously much brighter. Due to the accumulation of light and heat for years, it is as bright as an incandescent light bulb. The dim light and a large number of photons scatter and collide inside, dispersing endless darkness, illuminating everything clearly.

The temperature inside is much higher than the absolute vacuum.

"This brightness and temperature indicate that the dark curtain has existed for at least 1,000 years."

"In another tens of thousands of years, maybe the frozen meteorites and comets on the edge will melt into gas. The average temperature of the planets in close orbit will rise by hundreds of degrees, and this star system will turn into a big steamer."

"I saw a planet in the Living Living Zone of Life, and alien civilization should be on that planet." Du Xiaopang suddenly fussed.

"Didi~"

"alarm!"

"A group of tracking devices appeared near the spacecraft, gathering quickly towards the spacecraft. It was determined that it was a defense device of an alien civilization with a speed of about 0.25c. Can you get rid of it?"
