Everyone: Are mechanics weak? I wake up and rectify the natural disaster

Chapter 298 The colony on the verge of collapse, the suspicion of the Colossus

The silence of planet after planet.

The vast sea of ​​​​stars instantly became quiet.

So much so.

For a time, even the residents of the Border Galaxy felt,

The surrounding starry sky is actually like this,

Empty, desolate, lonely.

this kind of thing,

For the colonial pioneers, it was actually very scary.

Why are these gangs of thugs who abandoned their wives and children and traveled hundreds of light years to open up wasteland in remote galaxies so willing to risk their lives?

Isn't it just to take advantage of the resources and opportunities in these unexplored virgin lands?

But no matter how many resources and opportunities there are, don’t we have to return to our home planet to have any money?

No matter how much wealth is accumulated in the colony, it will eventually be brought back to the core star region to enjoy.

otherwise...

Do they really like the rotten infrastructure on remote colonial planets?

There is no gold-selling cave, no Crystal Palace, no luxury casino,

Even the bartender in the tavern is stingy, a bottle of Kapi tree sap can be sold for five times the price in the core star area.

If you can save thousands of dollars,

Being able to enjoy countless praises and cheers in the bustling commercial starports in the core star area,

Enjoy the enthusiasm of all kinds of "cute people" regardless of skin color, gender, or even race.

...But in the colonies, don’t even think about it.

The only things that can accompany them are snakes, insects, rats, ants, poisonous snakes and beasts, and the enthusiasm of savage primitive races.

——For the pioneers of the frontier colonies, life in the core star region is an eternal hope.

It may not be very realistic.

But it can’t be without.

You know, quite a few of them.

In fact, I live by the various tidbits that are broadcast on the radio every day.

Those who exaggerate and flatter, or even fabricate their deeds out of thin air, threaten that 'today a certain passerby bought a lottery ticket and became rich overnight', 'tomorrow a certain grassroots person was chosen by Bai Fumei to have a private life', and 'the day after tomorrow a certain poor person was suddenly captured by a Big Mac enterprise' Invited to serve as CEO and reach the pinnacle of life's third-rate self-media.

In the eyes of countless cows and horses in the core star area, it is just nonsense and extremely exaggerated.

Even if they are crazy, they will not believe what they are shouting about every day.

Even the dogs passing by on the street had to cover their noses with disgust when they smelled the fart smell of self-media.

...However, many people in the Border Star District are willing to hear these things from the bottom of their hearts.

It doesn't matter whether it's true or not.

What's important is that in their imaginations,

I fought life and death in the colony just to,

One day, after returning to the core star region, I can live a life of fame and fortune.

They need hope.

Therefore, they also need the voice from their home planet.

It is also for this reason.

Many colonists in remote galaxies suddenly felt panic after their own civilized life planet suddenly fell silent.

To them,

The unstable and somewhat time-delayed communication link between the colony and the home planet,

Sometimes it's like a kite string.

The colony is the kite, and the mother planet is the person holding the string.

This thin kite string would usually bind their hands and feet.

They would also be conveyed various orders issued by the big shots on their home planet that made them unhappy.

No one likes to be told what to do every day, and these people who go to remote frontiers to exchange their lives for money are even more unhappy.

But...

I don't like this thin 'kite string' anymore.

After all, this is the only link between them in the wilderness and the civilized world.

-Now, this bond is broken.

In the core star area, among the most prosperous and magnificent 'metropolises',

Many of them gradually turned into dead silence.

Many colonized planets have lost contact with their home planets.

I am indeed free, no one is talking about it in my ears every day.

However, this also seems to mean that they have all become rootless duckweeds...

...Various conspiracy theories, along with this endless panic, swept across all galaxies in the Border Star Region in an instant.

For a time, countless bizarre speculations poured out.

Many colonial planets showed signs of turmoil.

..

"It's so strange, is there such an inexplicable thing happening in the world?"

Su Wen thought for a while and first put forward the simplest hypothesis.

"Could it be that they are conducting exercises or dealing with foreign enemies, so the entire planet has entered a state of communication silence?"

"By the time our reconnaissance fleet arrived in the Horn-14 system and began to connect to their information network, more than fifteen living planets were completely silent,"

Frederick looked at the commander who was deep in thought and added some accurate data.

"With such numbers, it is unlikely to be a case of 'simultaneous defensive exercises,'"

"Besides, even if the communication silent mode is entered for the exercise, it cannot last for such a long time.

According to intelligence, one of the earliest silent planets, Zhilun-II of the Seinstark civilization, has had no news for almost two months. "

"Including it, all planets fell silent and never recovered?"

Su Wen asked, and when he received Frederick's affirmative look, he became more and more confused.

"This really can't be a drill, but... damn, what are they planning?"

Obviously, it won't be a drill.

The drill was not done like this.

Some of the fifteen planets are indeed involved in heavy industry or even mining.

But in the core star area, even if it is a resource-oriented industry, foreign trade and logistics operations are indispensable.

They all have large star ports, which serve as logistics hubs.

A planet with an annual throughput of hundreds of billions or even trillions of tons, so inexplicably silent for more than a month?

Is the business still open?

Still having trouble getting through life?

Impossible!

Taking such a long time as a prerequisite.

Su Wen really could not have imagined that the residents, businesses, and authorities on the planet would

How crazy do you have to be to be crazy enough to support this kind of behavior that can be called "self-cutting of meridians"?

impossible.

In any case, whether it is for collective interests or personal interests,

They have no reason to voluntarily support and carry out such actions.

——That means that this bizarre state of silence can only be caused by 'influence from external forces'.

As for 'external influence'...

...What other external influences could there be?

It's impossible for a prosperous planet in the core star region with a population of perhaps tens of billions and an output value that can only be described in astronomical figures to be impressed by outsiders with a few words and persuade them all to become Buddhas by relying on 'love and justice', right?

Even if it’s the interstellar civilization authorities that own this planet;

It's better to go down to the busy 'cows and horses' on the planet.

Who is willing to give up the interests at hand for no reason and based on the non-violent interference of outsiders?

...even if it is really necessary to talk nonsense,

Did the demons and monsters on the westward journey realize such a high level of ideological consciousness as "become a Buddha immediately"?

How is it possible?

There are so many ghosts, ghosts and snake gods in Buddhism who have been converted to good deeds and come to the shore. Aren't they all the ones who became Buddhas by punching and kicking the snail head?

Want to forcefully change other people's life patterns,

If you want to completely terminate the normal production activities of a planet,

Nothing can be accomplished without violence.

...Considered from this perspective, the meanings represented by these fifteen planets that have fallen into silence for no reason are very scary.

"It took less than a day, and there was no news. It was directly fucked to the point where the global communication network was completely scrapped?"

Su Wen asked with a horrified look on his face,

“What weapon could cause such a result?

Could it be that someone opened the 'Star Destroyer Colossus'? "

No wonder he found it scary.

...After all, 'completely destroying an entire living planet' is not something that can be done casually.

Yes, it is indeed easy for a super civilization to wipe out all life forms on an entire planet.

But how many existing super civilizations are there in Orion?

Their lofty eternal empire has no interest in external expansion, let alone eating, drinking and having fun.

After eating enough, come to the Fire Reef Star Territory to cause trouble in a mountain karaoke?

...It can’t even be counted as Shankara, it has to be called a primitive society.

The Fire Reef nations, in the eyes of the Eternal Empire,

I'm afraid it's not much better than the Australopithecus in human eyes.

Even if I say...

Even if it is not the Eternal Empire, it is not impossible to achieve this level.

but...

If there is no super civilization level technical level and military strength,

If you want to cut the grass, you can do it.

Is it easy to get rid of the roots?

That's not a term like 'mass destruction' or 'destructive damage'. It sounds scary, but it's actually a very general term.

That was an entire planet that was completely motionless.

Up to orbital defense facilities and down to underground nuclear bunkers.

All were completely speechless.

this...

Not an easy thing to do.
