In this way, it seems that I have no chance to escape. All my previous plans will be in vain. Using the backup plan and starting over in other star systems will be my only option.
But...
This seems to contradict the current situation.
If they could really do that, why would they come to the solar system? They could confirm the situation of the solar system by directly launching a probe, and then determine which of the suspected target star systems are next. After further detection, they can confirm that I am in the Altair system. So why don't they just go directly to the Altair system, instead of staying in the solar system?
While thinking silently, a possibility emerged from Li Qingsong's mind.
"Perhaps... even if they have mastered superluminal communication technology, they still cannot communicate between stars.
Superluminal communication technology may also be limited by distance. Although it has no delay, if the distance is too long, it may fail for some reason.
As for what this reason might be, I cannot know for the time being. Because my basic physics theory has not reached that stage.
This is the only possible reason, otherwise there is no way to explain why theZerg的天灾(天灾: natural disaster) fleet, despite possessing superluminal communication technology, still has to go to the trouble of having the main fleet reach each star system to complete the search.
However, even if superluminal communication technology has a distance limit and fails if the distance is too long, it is still of great significance.
Without superluminal communication technology, even within a star system, from one side to the other, there may be a delay of several days. With superluminal communication technology, at least within a star system, there is no need to endure the trouble of communication delays."
Having figured this out and confirmed that he was still safe for the time being, Li Qingsong secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
From the moment thisZerg natural disaster fleet arrived in the solar system, Li Qingsong had observed many details. And just from the surface of these details, Li Qingsong noticed several types of technology that far exceeded his own.
Faced with such an enemy, everything Li Qingsong was proud of was useless.
"Technology, technology, and more technology! The gap between unified strong force and non-unified strong force is as insurmountable as a chasm.
Unless there are extremely special circumstances, even the most powerful electroweak civilization cannot be the opponent of the weakest strong force civilization! Even if I can fight against more than ten electroweak civilizations with my own strength, I cannot be the opponent of thisZerg natural disaster!
To seek that glimmer of hope, I must also break through to a strong force civilization!"
Feeling the information from the solar system, Li Qingsong secretly gritted his teeth.
The construction in the Altair system is still going on with all efforts, in full swing. Li Qingsong did not relax in the slightest in receiving information from the solar system.
He saw that while conducting large-scale development and resource collection on the Jupiter system, a fleet left here and flew towards Earth.
Moreover, judging from the scale of that fleet, it didn't seem like a small-scale survey fleet, but rather like it was going to do something big to Earth.
Li Qingsong's heart gradually rose.
Earth is my home. Before leaving the solar system, I did not hesitate to risk delaying the time to purify the Earth and restore its ecology.
The importance of Earth in my heart goes without saying.
Now, what is thisZerg natural disaster going to do to Earth?!
Exploiting resources?
Unlikely.
The universe is not short of planets, and it is not short of resources. And for a planet like Earth with a thick atmosphere, it is naturally not suitable for mining resources.
The solar system clearly has four gas giant planets that can provide sufficient fusion fuel, and Mercury and Mars, as well as hundreds of larger satellites and dwarf planets, can provide mineral resources. ThisZerg natural disaster really does not need to carry out large-scale development on Earth.
Even if it were me, I would at most conduct a small-scale survey of the Earth, and at most collect some biological gene data or biological resources. I would not waste time developing it at all.
This is also why I insisted on rebuilding the Earth's ecosystem, even though I knew that theZerg natural disaster was very likely to come to the solar system.
"I also hid some clones on Earth and set up automatic activation conditions. Let them wake up."
Those clones are hidden in underground bases, underwater places, etc., and can observe the surface through extremely small optical devices.
Because the related equipment is extremely small, and the surface environment is large enough, Li Qingsong believes that even the third-level strong force civilization has a high probability of not finding them without specifically searching.
Once they detect abnormal conditions on the Earth's surface, the automatic program will awaken the clones in hibernation and automatically connect to my consciousness.
At that time, I will know what thisZerg natural disaster has done on Earth.
Time passed quietly. Sure enough, not long after, several more consciousness links from the solar system arrived and transmitted some pictures to me.
Li Qingsong saw some strange pictures.
He saw a group of mechanical creations with multiple limbs, like dogs and plants, running wildly on the surface in groups.
This is a grassland. Above the grassland, chased by machine spiders, countless creatures are fleeing for their lives.
There are some small aircraft flying in the sky. Half of the aircraft is a transparent glass cover, and inside the cover is a seat with a mass of bloated, fleshy things sitting on it.
That thing is extremely fat, extremely thick, but it doesn't seem to have much toughness, but is as soft as fat or jelly.
In that large mass of fat, one can barely see some organs that seem to be eyes, nose, arms, and legs.
That strange creature rides in this translucent small aircraft, flying around in the air as if playing, occasionally firing bullets, creating puffs of smoke on the ground, and the fleeing animals die in pieces.
Whenever this happens, the pile of fat trembles, looking very excited.
Outside these aircraft ridden by strange creatures, there are many obviously unmanned aircraft. Those unmanned aircraft surround the manned aircraft like guards, loyally guarding the safety of the strange creature.
Sometimes, if the direction of the animal群(动物群: animal groups) on the ground deviates, those unmanned aircraft will fly over and shoot them, forcing the animal群(动物群: animal groups) to change direction, so that the manned aircraft can shoot better.
After chasing for a while, a forest appeared in front, and many animals all escaped into the forest and disappeared.
The fat, ugly creature seemed to be angry and pressed a button with a short arm-like organ. So many machine spiders on the ground swarmed up, and the next moment, the thick trees collapsed one after another, revealing all the animals again, and the creature began hunting again...
