Rumors

"I'll discuss it with the Astronomy Department later, and once we've determined the route, we'll set sail." Yue Yuan finished his tea in one gulp, then picked up the second cup of tea poured by the service robot and said, "However, the Crimson Flame Civilization's records do not contain any precise location information, or even what kind of ruins they are."

Civilization Ruins.

For any civilization, the Civilization Ruins are extremely Gravity; otherwise, the Crimson Flame Civilization would not have traveled N light-years to this place. After obtaining this information, humanity will obviously find it difficult to resist the allure of the Civilization Ruins.

The Crimson Flame Civilization is also Level 3 Civilization, and if they dare to search for ancient ruins, there is no reason why humans wouldn't.

"In that case, I'll go back and have the fleet prepare." Man Yuemei leaned back, adopting a comfortable sitting posture. "I wonder where the Crimson Flame Civilization got the information about Civilization Ruins in this star system. If it came from that Interstellar Transaction Market, I think it's probably fake."

It's not just a matter of whether it's true or false; there may also be unknown dangers.

Although the Crimson Flame Civilization Database showed a friendly attitude towards that Interstellar Transaction Market, Yue Yuan remained wary of aliens and therefore did not fully believe the Crimson Flame Civilization's descriptions.

Maybe the Crimson Flame Civilization bought fake news.

However, the Crimson Flame Civilization did not cite the source of the information about the existence of Civilization Ruins in this star field in its database, which is good news.

Then, Yue Yuan recounted all the records about the Civilization Ruins, and finally said, "According to the database, the star field where the ruins are located spans five hundred light-years, and there is no accurate coordinate Star System. For us, it is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Even if we set sail, we can only try our luck. Let's hope we are lucky and encounter it after passing one or two stars."

"We're going to set sail anyway, aren't we?" Man Yuemei said leisurely.

Hearing her words, Yue Yuan realized that this girl obviously didn't care much about the ruins. She probably came to the Lyra just because she was bored.

Raising an eyebrow, Yue Yuan looked at Man Yuemei opposite him and said, "If there are no unforeseen circumstances, the fleet will set sail in about ten days. During this time, if you have nothing to do, you can stay on the Lyra."

"It's a rare invitation from the Great Leader; to refuse would seem like a disrespect," Man Yuemei chuckled.

"You won't lose out by giving Great Commander face," Yue Yuan said with a smile.

"Hehe, never mind, I'm going to wander around." Man Yuemei said, then got up and left without any hesitation.

Seeing it leave, Yue Yuan waved to the service robot, instructing it to tidy up the tea set, and then resumed his daily tasks.

Yue Yuan didn't have the habit of putting off today's work until tomorrow, as he hadn't finished dealing with today's tasks yet.

And so, ten days later...

After Man Yuemei returned to the flagship of the Second Fleet with a radiant complexion, the Great Fleet composed of Human Civilization, Crimson Flame Civilization, Nair People, Kuntai People, and Dog-Headed People officially set sail.

This is a large fleet with a total of 180 million ships, including 120 million warships of various types, more than 50 million Residential Spaceship, and the rest are various types of ships such as engineering, factory, biosphere, and transportation ships.

According to the course, the fleet will arrive at the next star in thirty-eight years, where it will resupply briefly before continuing its voyage towards the far reaches of space. On a large map of the Milky Way Galaxy, the Great Fleet's overall course is away from the Galactic Center, forming an angle of approximately fifty degrees with the Galactic Disk.

Although such a route may seem like leaving the Milky Way Galaxy, it is actually impossible. The Milky Way Galaxy's Galactic Disk has an average thickness of two thousand light-years. With the current navigation technology of human Great Fleet, it would definitely take four or five thousand years to get out of the Galactic Disk.

The universe is so vast.

During this period, although humans seem to be wandering around, their actual activity range is only within a few hundred light-years. Compared to the Milky Way Galaxy, which has a diameter of 100,000 light-years, it is really insignificant.

Propelled by Magnetic Propulsion, the Great Fleet set sail like ghosts, then silently disappeared into the deep starry sky.

Although this voyage was supposedly due to the discovery of Civilization Ruins mentioned in the Crimson Flame Civilization Database, most people, including Yue Yuan, didn't take the search for these relics seriously because the information was so limited.

His instructions to the relevant personnel were simply to have them deploy a few more probes to scan the planets in the Target Star System when the Great Fleet arrived at each star, and to keep an eye out for any unusual phenomena.

In human understanding, so-called relics are naturally located in Star System. Civilization Ruins are either on planets or exist in relation to planets. Oh, and they could also be war relics, like those from battles between humans and the Crimson Flame Civilization.

Based on this understanding, it is understandable to give such an explanation to the relevant personnel responsible for detecting the information.

Furthermore, the information about the Crimson Flame Civilization only mentions ruins briefly, without specifying what type of ruins they are, what level of Civilization Ruins they might be, or even any information at all. It's as if the information is fabricated and stored in a database. If it weren't for the fact that many high-ranking members of the Crimson Flame Civilization knew about this, humanity would definitely think it was fabricated, so it's understandable that they didn't pay attention to it.

With this in mind, the Great Fleet led by Human Civilization arrived at the first target star, which was an ordinary Binary Star System.

Don't assume that because our Solar System is a single star, most of the bright stars in the Milky Way Galaxy are like that. In fact, about half of the stars in the Milky Way Galaxy are Binary Star System, three-star systems make up about 10%, and the rest are single-star or three-star or more systems.

One of the stars in this Binary Star System is a White Dwarf Star, and the other is Red Dwarf Star. The former has no planets of its own, while the latter has twelve planets and more than twenty Dwarf Planet.

Clearly, this distribution is very unbalanced. According to the theory of stellar evolution, each star in Binary Star System should have planets, and the more massive star should have more planets than the less massive star.

However, what humans see is the opposite. But this is not enough to be judged as an anomaly. Astronomers believe that the reason why this Binary Star System is like this is because the original massive star has undergone Supernova Explosion.

It originally had planets, but billions of years ago, it blew all its planets away with its own massive eruption. After a long period of Gravity tug-of-war, it became what it is today.

Nevertheless, since we're already here, we decided to take a look around and deployed a large number of probes to explore each planet, following established procedures.

As expected, nothing was found.
