Farewell to Wolf
"Hidden bridge mode activated. Please be seated and fasten your safety buckles. Seat cushioning mode activated."
As the voice announcement sounded, Yue Yuan, sitting in the captain's seat, clearly felt the entire bridge sinking. Gradually, the external structure of the Lyra appeared through the glass portholes that had previously offered a view of outer space, followed by its internal structure.
Immediately afterwards, thick alloy gates slowly closed, sealing the entire retracted bridge inside.
Inside the bridge, Yue Yuan couldn't hear the sounds of gears and motors outside, but the sound of mechanical movement resonated in his heart. He knew that these gates were designed to protect the safety of the bridge.
As the bridge sank into the warship, the people inside lost their direct view of the outer universe, but the subsequent changes inside the bridge restored a similar perspective for them.
The dimmed bridge lit up again, revealing displays that were originally hidden in the porthole compartments. After the bridge sank back into the warship, these displays were slowly pushed out from the compartments, replacing the original porthole glass and showing the view outside the spaceship to the humans.
"Biosphere Spaceship 1 has completed the refueling of the Wolf version of the Acceleration Buffer Fluid. Biosphere Spaceship 1 has completed the refueling of the Wolf version of the Acceleration Buffer Fluid. Biosphere Spaceship 3 has completed the refueling of the Wolf version of the Acceleration Buffer Fluid. Biosphere Spaceship 7 has completed the refueling of the Wolf version of the Acceleration Buffer Fluid."
"Thrusters are functioning normally. Preparing to enter high-G acceleration mode. Preset acceleration value: 100 G. Attention all crew members, the Lyra is about to begin uniform acceleration. Countdown: 10 seconds. 10, 9, 8, 7!"
"Thrusters are functioning normally. Preparing to enter high-G acceleration mode. Preset acceleration value: 100G. Attention all crew members, the Kunlun-Class Warship is about to begin uniform acceleration. Countdown: 10 seconds. 10, 9, 8, 7!"
"Preparing to enter high-G acceleration mode, preset acceleration value 100G. Attention all crew members, the Mount Hua-Class Warship is about to begin uniform acceleration. 10 seconds countdown."
The voice announcement of 'Tianhe Light' sounded on all spaceships and warships to ensure that the start-up time of each spaceship would not differ too much.
Upon hearing this sound, everyone sat quietly in their seats, waiting for the acceleration.
After the body is enhanced, humans can withstand acceleration of 123G without using Acceleration Buffer Fluid, which just exceeds the acceleration limit of Residential Spaceship. In other words, Residential Spaceship no longer need to be equipped with Acceleration Buffer Fluid devices.
This also made the construction of Residential Spaceship less complicated, allowing humans to build so many in such a short time.
As for warships, since their acceleration limit is 150G, they must be equipped with Acceleration Buffer Fluid system to unleash their full performance. However, since it is not a critical moment, there is no need to push them to the maximum value.
As for the creatures on the Biosphere Spaceship, they don't have such robust bodies, so humans specially created a Wolf-version Acceleration Buffer Fluid for them to ensure that they wouldn't be crushed into meat patties under high-G acceleration.
Yes, although the human body enhancement agent was invented through research on the biosphere of the Wolf Planet, it is even more powerful than the creatures of the Wolf Planet, surpassing its predecessor.
That's how technology sometimes works; once you find the root cause, it can be even more powerful than the original natural evolution.
Of course, not every creature on the Wolf Planet can withstand high-G acceleration. According to scientists' experimental data, the Ironclad Beast can withstand an instantaneous acceleration of 60G, truly Steel Body.
When the countdown Zeroing, the Fusion Thruster, which had been shining brightly, instantly became hundreds of times brighter, and at the same time, bright blue flames shot out, looking like bright suns shining in space.
Hundreds of spaceships accelerated simultaneously, their bright exhaust flames instantly illuminating each other.
From a distance, it looks like a giant sun formed by countless Little Sun gathered together, and the light of the Red Dwarf Star Wolf 1061 in the distance seems to have turned into a small bonfire at this moment.
As the bright light gradually illuminated every corner of the Wolf Stellar System, the human fleet slowly escaped the Gravity pull of Wolf 1061 and headed slowly into deep space.
Starting from a relatively stationary state and undergoing uniform acceleration at 100G, the human fleet would need to accelerate continuously for 12.7 hours to reach its maximum speed, 15% of the speed of light.
That's the maximum speed Fusion Thruster can achieve. Beyond that, the Fusion Thruster can no longer provide thrust from the ejected particle streams. Of course, if the engine were replaced with a plasma engine at this point, it could still accelerate, but the thrust of a plasma engine is extremely small, and the acceleration becomes extremely slow. Even accelerating for a thousand years would probably only increase the speed by a tiny bit, making it completely unnecessary.
Gradually, the exhaust plumes of the human fleet dimmed from their sun-like brightness, and the light they shone on the Wolf Stellar System was gradually diluted by Interstellar Dust. Soon after, the brightness of the exhaust plumes became the same as that of the Main Sequence Star of Wolf 1061.
If Sentient Life on Wolf 1061 c Planet at this time, they would surely see two equally bright 'suns' when they looked up at the stars.
After some time, the 'sun' that emitted blue light dimmed again, becoming as bright as the stars in the sky, and finally, like a star blinking, it gradually disappeared into the midst of the stars.
At this moment, the Wolf Stellar System, which had been bustling for over forty years, finally returned to its former tranquility.
Humans came, and humans left.
Countless years later, the small amount of alloy that humanity discarded on the Wolf 1061 c Planet may be buried in the long passage of time, or it may become a tool in the hands of a race that has just awakened intelligence, or it may become the Mystic Heaven Cold Iron, a treasure passed down through generations, as spoken of by that unknown Sentient Life.
They might think this is something from the so-called mythological era.
But they may never have imagined that it was actually just some special alloy that humans left behind on the planet, which they were too lazy to take with them.
Oh, perhaps once they truly embark on a scientific path, they'll mistake it for evidence of an ancient civilization. The truth, perhaps, will only be discovered once they have the capability to access their satellites.
If nothing unexpected happens, Sentient Life will surely emerge on Wolf 1061 c Planet, because humans have already discovered some animals with large brains and relatively high intelligence while collecting Biosphere Resources.
If that's true, then perhaps one day they will discover that the strange symbols on those alloys left behind by humans on the planet are actually an alien script.
Of course, according to human analysis of Earth's evolutionary timeline, given the current state of this planet, it would take millions of years for Sentient Life to emerge.
