Chapter 101 The Third Congress of Exiles
"Combined with the technological level of the Brown Star civilization, we have found some specific technologies suitable for your civilization and can be shared with each other. I think this will be of great help to your development in the field of deep space navigation."
There was silence below the bridge. Although thousands of people sat in crowds, no one whispered or even looked around. Everyone's time was concentrated on the position of the bridge's podium, or rather, on the projection behind Shuer on the podium and on him.
Yesterday morning, after the Shadow Chaser and the two agent captains of the Jackdaw, the two old men immediately sent messages to the agent captains of other spacecraft in the fleet through the central computer, giving detailed explanations to the other captains of the visit of the Shadow Chaser from another world, and informing them of the three cooperation intentions they put forward one by one. There was no subjective judgment of the two old men, but if you think about it, you can know that their behavior of sending this message is enough to illustrate their tendencies in their hearts.
Therefore, the unprecedented emergencies caused a sensation among the survivors of the entire Brown Star civilization. Of course, they refer to those watchmen who are still awake. After all, they are already the only representatives of the Brown Star civilization. From another world dominated by magic technology, they are protected by omnipotent gods, and have the means to protect themselves for a short time under the threat of the big rift. With artificial intelligence products that are far higher than the Brown Star civilization, one by one is labeled on the shadow-seekers. Any label is enough to attract the interests of these survivor representatives and can even arouse their fanaticism.
What the survivors can't wait for the most was the last sentence Shuer said to all the survivor representatives through the two acting captains. He told everyone that they must continue to escape, because hope has not been shattered yet. If they have escaped for one more day, they will have more hope of rebuilding civilization, because in other worlds, some people are still not giving up and are still trying to fight against the big rift.
A polite word that sounds like a very ordinary one, but in the hearts of these survivor representatives, it is more powerful than any encouragement.
These acting captains were originally brave among the fugitives who were willing to sacrifice for the continuation of civilization. What they were thinking about was how to continue civilization. In order to rebuild the slim hope of civilization, they could sacrifice their lives and future, and stay in the small bridge for decades, like the watchmen in the wheat field, enduring the torture of loneliness, enduring the abandoned life every day, just to keep this small trace of hope. Therefore, when they heard Shuer's words, all the acting captains could not sit still, and at least half of the captains wanted to fly over and communicate face to face with the shadow-travelers. Perhaps some people did want to discuss with Shuer the specific matters of fighting with other worlds and the Great Rift in person, but more people actually just wanted to hear this sentence "Hope has not been destroyed yet."
Fortunately, the two old men expected the reaction of their companions and had already made plans early to stop the impulsive behavior of the ecstatic captains on the spot. All members of the fleet were notified of the meeting that the fleet would hold the third fugitive congress in a thousand years in the void between several galaxies.
The first conference determined the specific behavior of concentrated escape, which determined the life of the next thousand years. The second conference determined the implementation of the sleeping plan, alleviated the unstable situation of the fleet, and preserved the only cohesion of the Brown Star civilization. Today is the third conference, which shows how much the shadow-seekers are valued in the hearts of the representatives of the Brown Star civilization.
When the gate of the bridge opened and Shuer brought his teammates to meet him, he saw more than 2,000 brown-star men in similar clothes flocking into the bridge one after another. These people were men and women, and the age span was very large. The young one was even younger than Delia's original Kemir, and looked only eleven or eleven years old. The older one was about the same age as Ryan Nina. One of them was even carried in by a self-discipline machinery on a stretcher. A middle-aged man was next to him, obviously the heir to the new Watchman.
The old man on the stretcher had no time to talk, but insisted on taking the shuttle to attend the meeting in person. The old man was carried to Shuer's side, breathing heavily and unable to speak, but his thin hands grabbed Shuer's arm tightly, his eyes so complicated that it was indescribable. Looking at the expectation and excitement in the old man's eyes, even though the shadow-seekers wandered between life and death countless times, and seeing many separations of life and death, they still couldn't laugh. Only a professional priest like Shuer could maintain a calm and decent posture, show a calm and holy smile, gently patted the old man's hand wrapped in bones, and nodded gently to the old man.
As if he had obtained some guarantee, the old man let go of his hand and collapsed on the stretcher again, with a satisfied smile on his face, as if he had really seen the light of hope, but the shadow-seekers were shocked. If it weren't for his chest rising and falling violently, everyone really thought that he would leave the world like this after he fulfilled his wish. Fortunately, the old man could still persevere and did not use his life to cast a layer of haze for this meeting.
Everyone knew that this conference would be Shuer's special session and the stage he was best at. Therefore, no one of the shadow-seekers stole his limelight. Everyone stood in a corner of the podium and left the center of the stage to Shuer, well, Wei.
The first topic was naturally the exchange of intelligence in the Big Rift. In this regard, Shuer had already made Wei fully prepared to summarize the known various intelligences into a detailed report and distribute them to all participants in advance. What the two did at the conference was to make specific explanations and explanations for the report, and attached many conjectures that had not been verified or have not been verified yet, making the intelligence research in the Big Rift more full and in-depth.
Wei, who got the new position, was like a responsible adjutant, standing straight beside Shuer as a capable and decisive female soldier, and she was standing straight with a gun. She unconditionally strictly enforced every order from Shuer, and was very perfect. Although the speaker was Shuer, Wei, as an assistant, was very timely in both the switching of images, the provision of information, and even the auxiliary explanation. She didn't even need Shuer's instructions, she could make the most appropriate response at the right time, and cooperated correctly.
The acting captains were surprised to find that even the Brown Star civilization's research and views on the source of disaster in this report, and they have combined these information from Brown Star with other unheard of information from other worlds and conducted detailed analysis. This discovery shows that the report was made after the two sides exchanged specific information about the large rift yesterday. It can be analyzed so thoroughly in one day and made into a thick report. This is probably not something that can be done simply by a few people. It can be seen that the performance of the artificial intelligence standing by Shuer in the form of projection is probably far beyond the imagination of the captains. The captains looked at Wei and Shuer with a complex look. Now they have no doubt that these people have technology far exceeding the level of Brown Star technology.
"There are only so many known researches for the Big Rift, which is the source of disaster you mentioned. "It took nearly two hours to stop explaining, looking at the captains with different expressions below with a calm expression. "It must be admitted that there are still too many unsolved mysteries that need to be continued to be excavated for the Big Rift of the Void. With the existing information between our two sides, let alone confrontation or even defeating the Big Rift, we have not even been able to understand it. I understand that there is not much time left for you, but in fact, there is not much time left for us. But please don't worry, it won't take long, in a few months, we Pavatiga will have a major action against the Big Rift. If it goes well, we can successfully peek into the secret under the veil of the Big Rift."
What if it fails? Although no one asks, this question arises in everyone's mind.
"Ha, it's failed." Shuer seemed to have seen the captains' thoughts and said with a chuckling, "If it fails, when the Brown Star fleet is swallowed by the big rift, he might see me in there to welcome you, hahahaha."
Just laugh, this joke is not funny at all. Some young captains already wanted to punch Shuer in the face, but it must be admitted that the clumsy joke did successfully dispel the tense atmosphere in the venue. The depression brought to everyone by this previous report has invisibly relieved a lot.
"The basic situation is this. I know, you must have many questions now, but there are too many people attending the meeting. It is obviously not realistic to ask questions one by one. In this way, I can concentrate on answering a key question raised by you. As for other questions, let's stay after the meeting ends and return to your own spaceship, and ask questions like Captain Ryan and Captain Nina through spaceship communication."
"Buzz", the first time there was a noisy conversation in the venue, almost everyone was discussing with the captain around them. After more than ten minutes, the noise gradually faded. Finally, a captain sitting in the front row stood up and asked on behalf of everyone, "Mr. Shuer, you said before that someone is still trying to fight against the big rift. Can we know what specific methods and measures do you have?"
