Minke's black technology

Chapter 470 Communication
Making contact with aliens for the first time was nerve-wracking, but when the main battleship teleported over to engage in hand-to-hand combat, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

If it's just the current attack method, the fleet's shield must be able to withstand it, and the expedition fleet has already intercepted the opponent's radio communication. Judging from the cracked information, these aliens have a strange technological development direction. , it seems that there is nothing particularly powerful.

"It's even worse than human technology in some aspects, such as unmanned control systems and energy shields!" The experts analyzed.

However, it is still necessary to act cautiously. No matter how poorly the other party behaves, they are also civilizations with the ability to travel in the endless star sea.

No one can guarantee that others will not have a killer!

What's more, the development of human science and technology in Blue Star is a bit tricky. If it weren't for the bald man, he would still be struggling in the solar system, let alone jumping tens of hundreds of light years to engage in interstellar wars.

Basically everyone paying attention to the fight really relaxed when the Yatanian alien ship unleashed yet another swarm of beetle-like spaceships.

Naturally, these people also included the bigwigs who watched the live broadcast on Blue Star. They thought that the opponent should have nothing to do, so they placed their hopes on winning through crowd tactics.

During the ensuing battle, it was indeed proved that the judgment of the bosses was correct. Basically, human beings can win without loss. Watching the video broadcast sent by the expedition fleet, the bosses finally began to relax their inner tension.

It has to be said that Rabbit has achieved great success in ultra-long-distance signal communication technology. As soon as the results of the battle on the front line came out, the people on Blue Star already knew it clearly.

"The signal relay station still has to be rolled out as soon as possible, and strive for full coverage within ten light years as soon as possible, so that the networks of all space colonized cities can be connected!" The boss said.

The distance of ten light-years does not sound far away, and the communication distance with the expedition fleet has exceeded hundreds of light-years, but in fact this is a single-line communication distance. If you want to cover all the surrounding galaxies, that kind of project is comparable to building Martian colonization cities are even more complicated.

However, judging from the live broadcast video of this battle, it is indeed wise to place signal relay stations in each galaxy. These relay station facilities can not only send and receive signals, but also provide navigation for each spaceship, which can be regarded as an interstellar version. eye work.

Humans didn't reply to the alien's radio signal. Anyway, the purpose of the rabbit is to capture samples, not to make diplomatic contact with the other party.

So the expedition fleet all adopted signal silence, and did not answer any signals according to the instructions above, and kept approaching the aliens on both sides, making the atmosphere a little tense.

Especially the Yatania aliens, they have never seen a spaceship larger than their main battleship, and they can fly at such a fast speed even when the propulsion system is turned off.

Judging from various situations, these steel spaceships came from bad people. Most importantly, the weapons on their spaceships couldn't cause the slightest damage to these spaceships.

Facing such an unknown enemy, the Yatania ratmen were quickly discouraged, and the main battleship entered the transition state without saying a word, and entered the subspace after a few seconds, leaving a large number of beetle spaceships without looking back.

Quite a few of the remaining beetle spaceships also reacted, entering the subspace one after another, and disappearing in the center of the space ripples.

However, many beetle spaceships were unable to escape. Under the attack of the ghost fighter jets, they were either blown up or maimed, and then lost power and floated in the outer space.

"Where's the Grasshopper spaceship?" someone reminded.

This spaceship actually wanted to run away, but surrounded by more than a dozen ghost fighter jets, the pilot on the spaceship found that he couldn't escape no matter what.

"It only takes half a second for the opponent to tear apart our spaceship!" the cat princess Liya said very calmly.

The lethality of the ghost fighter jets just now is still fresh in the memory. These terrifying space killers are like sharks, and they can easily blow up any spaceship.

As for the spaceships that were not blown up, it was obvious that the Wraith fighters avoided key parts, only to paralyze the spaceship's ability to move.

After the main fleet of the expedition jumped over, more ghost fighters were released. These space fighters equipped with electromagnetic rail guns can chase the enemy like flies.

"So let's surrender!" Princess Liya said.

Under her command, the grasshopper spacecraft was very obediently let the unmanned cruise ship grasp it firmly with the mechanical arm, and then fixed it on the belly of one of the unmanned cruise ships, ready to make a curvature jump and send it to space in the Sagittarius galaxy site.

The basic construction of this space station has been completed, and it can accommodate tens of thousands of people. At the same time, it also has a large amount of military and civilian materials, which is enough to become a stronghold for human exploration.

"However, before sending it over, we must first block the alien's radio signal, otherwise the coordinates of this stronghold may be exposed!" The commander of the expedition fleet ordered.

In this space stronghold built by humans in a hurry, Li Maoye has already arranged a substitute robot on it. As long as the alien spacecraft is sent over, he can lead his staff to study them.

"Okay, everyone, get ready!"

Li Maoye said to others in the Meow Star Lab: "Let's go and see what the aliens look like and what their technical level is...."

Zhao Baibing, Qin Hua and others cheered after hearing this, "Have you really found an alien?"

"Are these aliens still alive?"

"Of course it's alive!"

"That's really great, I've wanted to study alien life for a long time!"

There are not many researchers who can use stand-in robots to go to Sagittarius this time. There are only a dozen places in the Meow Star Laboratory, and the rest are experts from other domestic research institutions.

The stronghold in the Sagittarius galaxy is purely a military base. In addition to repairing and supplying spaceships, it can also conduct scientific research. After all, there are many laboratory equipment and equipment inside.

Since there are a large number of military dormitories in the stronghold, it is necessary to have corresponding entertainment facilities, such as shopping malls and cinemas, as well as areas that can provide leisure and fitness for soldiers.

When the expedition fleet is not going out to perform missions, these spaceships will stay at the space port outside the stronghold. From the perspective of scale, this port can probably accommodate seventy or eighty warships, but currently only a quarter of the space will be used. superior.

Before the alien spacecraft is delivered, this stronghold must be prepared, at least an area must be completely isolated to analyze aliens and alien spacecraft.

Originally, the human side was ready to use violent means to send combat-type intelligent robots to forcefully enter the spaceship to arrest them, and then drag these aliens out of the ship.

But after the initial contact, the relevant departments quickly changed the original plan, and planned to adopt different treatment policies. For example, the aliens on the side of the beetle spaceship had to be forced by force, but it was different on the side of the grasshopper spaceship.

"After all, these aliens look too human-like!" The expert reported upwards.

That's right, whether it's ratmen or catmen, the appearance of these aliens is almost the same as that of humans. If they are very different from humans, such as alien creatures like octopuses, the first thing humans think of is that their taste will be different. How about it.

If they were replaced by aliens like "sub-races", the Blue Star humans would have to consider whether violent means would have adverse effects. It would be bad if their soldiers suffered from post-war psychological syndrome.

After some discussion, everyone decided to show courtesy first and then fight to see if the other party can establish normal diplomatic relations with humans, and at the same time, it is also good to study what species these aliens are.

"Why do they look like the 'sub-races' created by the boss?" Some experts asked a question.

This question is very well asked!
Li Maoye himself also wanted to find one or two aliens to come and study, to see if they had taken the "humanization potion" and turned into creatures with human gene chimeras.

The Ratmen Yatania suffered first, but the Rabbit Planters did not have the habit of killing captives. Instead, they collected the wreckage of the beetle spaceships that had been blown up, and found a large number of ratman corpses in these spaceships.

With the corpses of these ratmen, some dissection experiments can be carried out, and preliminary biological research reports will soon be available.

"Oh? These rat people are not genetic chimeras?"

Li Maoye got an unexpected but reasonable answer. According to the autopsy report, these ratmen evolved naturally. Judging from the number of chromosomes with 32 genes in their bodies, they are far more complicated than the Blue Star human genes. , and evolved into a rat man many years earlier than humans.

"According to the information on the Ratman spaceship, the historical records of Yatania Ratmen can be traced back to at least 100 million years, and they have hardly evolved during these 100 million years!"

"It's a bit unbelievable!"

"That's right, a biological race that hasn't evolved in a million years? It's unbelievable!"

Maybe the time calculation of the rat people is different from that of humans, or maybe there is a problem with the computer translation. No matter what, the genes will not change much in a million years. How stable is this genetic structure?

Anyway, this conclusion is doubtful for the time being, Meow Star Laboratory and other experts do not believe it too much, and we still need to find more data to confirm it.

"Did the Tristan cat people gain anything here?" Li Maoye asked: "It is said that there is a Princess Liya on their spaceship?"

"Yes, the cat people are very cooperative, at least they don't attack like the rat people!"

Judging from the contact with the aliens from both sides, the Ratmen are impulsive and irritable guys, and they are easy to attack because of some trivial things. Unless they are the superiors of their race, it is difficult for other aliens to make peace with the Ratman coexist.

On the contrary, the cat people of the Tristan Empire are much easier to get along with. Even though these cat people are very proud of humans, even if they are placed under the fence or even in danger of becoming prisoners, they do not show the slightest fear, let alone bow their knees up.

"Hehe!" Li Maoye couldn't help laughing when he saw the reports submitted by other people: "Isn't this just the nature of a cat star?"

Due to various factors, humans don't want to use violence against Tristan, so they can only treat Princess Liya and others according to the high standards of the country.

While not exposing too much information about the Blue Star humans, they tried their best to dig out the information of these two alien races. From the current point of view, the Rat People and the Cat People have irreconcilable racial conflicts.

"Why do they have conflicts? Is it just because one is a mouse and the other is a cat?"

"This is not very clear, because the conflict between these two alien races has lasted for millions of years, and it is said that they have accumulated hatred since before they produced civilization history!"

"Could it be because of the competition for survival resources?"

Some experts have suggested that if two different races of intelligent life appear on the same planet during the evolution of advanced intelligent life, and there is reproductive isolation between them, it is very likely that an endless ground-to-ground relationship will form.

If you think about it, there was not only one kind of ancient human beings in Blue Planet when humans originated, but in the end, only the branch of Homo sapiens remained in later generations.

10,000+ years ago, there were at least 17 species in the genus Homo, such as Neanderthals, Denisovans, Heidelbergians, Floresians, etc., all of which were eliminated by modern humans over time.

Some research experts believe that it is probably because of semi-reproductive isolation that these hominins were exterminated by Homo sapiens as enemies. After all, the biggest thing for human beings in the primitive era was to reproduce besides eating.

"Hiss! In this way, the rat people and the cat people have been killing each other since the ignorance period. Maybe one side can overwhelm the other for a certain period of time, but they have never been able to tell the winner. Still fighting!"

Someone immediately thought that if this happens to the Blue Star humans, then it is very likely that they will not be able to get out of this vicious circle of "when is it time to repay each other" for millions of years like them!

"No wonder they have been developed for so long, and they only have not very high technological capabilities. Otherwise, judging from the speed of human technological development, millions of years have already traveled across the entire galaxy!"

This kind of thinking may be a bit too optimistic, but it is the true thinking of the Blue Star humans today, and they even think that this goal can be achieved in just a few hundred years.

According to the information provided by the cat people, their parent star is in a galaxy fifty light-years away from the Sagittarius Galaxy. There are more than ten planets in this galaxy that are suitable for life, which is almost the same type as the Sagittarius Galaxy.

And their main origin planet is on the fifth planet. This galaxy has enough minerals and water, and an atmosphere similar to a blue star...
