Our great nation of China traverses the multiverse.

"it is good!"

Holos opened the cabinet, put the documents inside, and then quickly left.

After walking quite a distance from the door, he suddenly scratched his head, then clapped his hands in delight, realizing something, and exclaimed:

"First contact with extraterrestrial civilization?"

"So that means engineers aren't considered an 'alien' civilization!"

Chapter 489 Different Races Need to Use Different Paths

The fleet discovered signals of an intelligent civilization in the McCa Cluster, 600 light-years away, and that information was spreading freely, at least within the entire base.

The participants in Project 237 were already under the highest level of secrecy.

To be honest, the secrecy level of extraterrestrial civilizations is not even as high as that of a single hair in any random laboratory here.

Therefore, this kind of news can now be spread freely within the base.

"So why are you all so nervous?"

Fang Jing sat on a chair in the cafeteria, shoveled a couple of mouthfuls of rice into his mouth, and casually shouted at Horus, who was engrossed in eating.

"It's not like we haven't encountered alien civilizations before, Horus, don't you think!"

"That's right, we've fought against Pirate Lobster, Transforming Decepticons, and Mimic Omega."

Hollo readily responded.

"……Um?"

Fang Jing suddenly looked up and blinked rapidly.

What Horus said seemed to be right, but the way he said it felt so out of place.

"Old Zhao said this is completely different. Parallel alien civilizations have Base 237 as a buffer between us and them, but this time it's in our own universe. There's no turning back this time!"

Zhou Yuan's views were similar to Zhao Guangyao's.

This is a completely different kind of sense of crisis!

The reason why this universe has never been worried about alien civilizations from parallel universes is that if we really can't beat them, we can just close the portal and come find us across parallel universes!

But this universe cannot do that!

If we were to encounter a civilization more powerful than our own,

That really means you'll get promoted!

The kind that's easy to pick up and dry!

"That's true, but..."

Fang Jing thought about it carefully and realized that was indeed the case. However, a thought suddenly crossed his mind, and he came up with a crooked idea:

"But what difference does it make?"

"If we can't defeat alien civilizations in parallel universes, we can close the space gate and hide in our own universe; if we can't defeat alien civilizations in our own universe, we can migrate to parallel universes. I think Kyushu is a good option, since they're all pretty much the same anyway."

"hiss--"

Upon hearing Fang Jing's words, Zhou Yuan took a deep breath.

He had to admit,

That kid is absolutely right!

If they can't win, they run away. Then they have Fang Jing fly a spaceship across the space bridge at high speed, find a place to hide, and leave a location behind as they teleport away.

A gentleman takes his revenge even after ten years.

We'll come back when our technology is more advanced!

This,

They were born with an invincible advantage!

"Yeah, it doesn't seem so tense anymore, unless we encounter a civilization that can jump between parallel universes, but this McCa Cluster clearly doesn't qualify."

Zhou Yuan paused for a moment, then smiled slightly.

They're still using wireless data? That civilization that can travel through parallel universes is still using wireless data transmission?

funny!

"Buzz buzz buzz... Brother Zhou, it's time for your routine physical exam."

"Okay, I'll be right there after I finish eating."

Zhou Yuan pressed the radio he habitually wore, then suddenly fell silent.

Ok,

This universe seems to be the exception!

……

"Escaping this universe is just our last resort when we have no other choice."

In the office, Old Zhu turned his head and quietly looked at Zhao Guangyao, who was also carefully taking notes.

"The military is constantly narrowing down the search area in the McCa Cluster, and the area has now been reduced to ten light-years. As it stands, this civilization is probably not very powerful."

No other spacecraft was detected within a ten-light-year range.

According to estimates,

This civilization is probably not very powerful.

"Yes, I have a general idea, but we must still keep the front-line warships on high alert and not be careless."

Old Zhu nodded.

The star system controlled by the other side wasn't very large; the military had narrowed their search area to within ten light-years, yet they still hadn't detected any of their research facilities.

Either they are like this universe, with parallel universes that prevent them from expanding too much; or the other side is simply not that strong.

Thinking of the former, Old Zhu chuckled softly.

We ruled it out without hesitation!

"Our people are sending probes forward cautiously, and we believe they will soon be able to ascertain the enemy's strength and weaknesses!"

Zhao Guangyao's expression relaxed somewhat.

The best news is that the enemy isn't too strong!

"By the way, how's the research on dimensional technology going at the research institute?"

Mr. Zhu gently placed the documents on the table and turned to change the subject.

"Horos's research institute is progressing the fastest, as it retains some experimental data left behind by the Engineers civilization; in addition, there are Dino and Skyfire, these ancient civilizations still have a very profound foundation."

Zhao Guangyao's implication was that the progress of human scientists was not ideal.

"Hmm, I guessed it. Our scientists should learn from them. No matter how profound their knowledge is, haven't they just become our stepping stones?"

Old Zhu snorted lightly, seemingly unconcerned.

They've had a proven track record of success, so researching them is naturally much easier and more efficient.

This is an objective fact that cannot be changed.

But so what?

As long as the results remain in this universe, that's fine!

Everything is under the control of the secret service, and these final research results will only make the technology of this universe more prosperous.

"Looks like we'll have to wait a while for the new world!"

Old Zhu shook his head.

Their focus is now on this universe, so it's better if their progress here is a little slower.

Otherwise, Project 237 would really be too busy.

"That's true, Elder Zhu. The defenses in various parallel universes have already consumed our manpower. Now the focus should be on our own universe."

Zhao Guangyao nodded.

The new world isn't in such a rush; matters in this universe are more important, after all, it's their home base.

"We are maintaining close communication with the military regarding this matter, and we must find out what kind of civilization we have encountered."

Old Zhu sat back down in his seat, looking at the image of the McCain Cluster projected onto the solid wood table and chairs. As he bowed his head to review the documents, he said in a cold voice:

"Try communicating first,"

"If the other party is a highly invasive civilization... such an existence cannot be tolerated within 1000 light-years of the solar system!"

"Yes!"

Zhao Guangyao's heart tightened, and he immediately nodded.

he knows,
