At the end of the discussion, the command team of the Expeditionary Force also unified the understanding. If a head-on conflict breaks out of two cosmic civilizations with similar technological standards, it will definitely be the result of both sides' losses. Therefore, peaceful coexistence and avoiding war are the best choice. What's more, the Expeditionary Force still bears heavy responsibilities, and is only a small part of human civilization, and its strength is relatively weak.

After the scientific team of the Expeditionary Force conducted a careful analysis of all the star systems ahead and avoided all the star systems that are most suitable for large-scale interstellar development, the scientific team chose three relatively safe routes:

After the plan was proposed, the Expeditionary Force command team finally determined the forward plan after several rounds of discussion. In this route, it will first pass through a binary star system, and then pass through the edge of a smaller-mass red dwarf.

Since the binary star system rotates very quickly, the scientific team judged that there should be no planets in this chaotic gravitational system. The other red dwarf has a very low probability of owning planets in the system because of its small mass.

If there is no planet inside the star system, then the target of becoming an interstellar colonization will be relatively smaller. Of course, this does not mean that she has no value in use. Perhaps some advanced cosmic civilizations will enclose such a lonely star with a structure similar to Dyson's sphere (an artificial celestial body that envelops stars to mine stellar energy) and completely occupy her light and heat

After 1.6 Earth years of flight, the Expeditionary Fleet first approached the binary star system.

There are two single star systems adjacent to the binary star system, and they form a triangle shape in the starry sky. Among them, the a star is 7.2 light years away and the b star is 15.6 light years away (each star system is not in the same plane, so the relative distance is complicated).

The Expeditionary Force chose the gap between the binary star system and the b star to sail forward, and tried to lean towards the dual star system as much as possible, because, after model deduction, there are at least three planets in the b star system, and there is a high possibility that there are unknown cosmic civilization forces.

"Reporting to the leader, the fleet's main body is about 2.6 light-years away from the binary star system."

Sergei was responsible for commanding the specific navigation missions of the fleet. He would report the specific navigation parameters of the fleet to Yuan Naichen every period of time.

"Extinguish all high-power engines and let the entire fleet enter the inertial flight stage."

"yes!!"

"Demolition of all the reflectors and light electromagnetic plates on the space carrier to minimize the reflectivity of light!"

"yes!!"

"Reduce the short-range communication frequency and prohibit any ultra-long-range communication method!!"

"yes!!"

In order to ensure the completeness, Yuan Shichen issued several orders in succession.

If we could stand in space and observe from a distance, the entire expeditionary fleet glided forward like a group of gray meteorites.

"The analysis of the scientific team is very correct. The binary star system moves very quickly. Under such chaotic gravitational combat, it is impossible to have planets. It is not suitable for building a space base." Yuan Shichen said while concentrating on the two rounds of fireballs in the starry sky, "I hope the fleet can pass through this darkness smoothly."

Although there are no planets or space bases in the binary star system, the possibility of a probe is still very high. Therefore, Yuan Shichen does not think that this place will be absolutely safe.

Before approaching the binary star system, the Expeditionary Fleet had re-accelerated to a three-dimensional space speed of light of 9.91 times. If it is at this speed, as long as it continues to fly for 2 to 3 months, it can successfully pass through the binary star system.

This time, the Expeditionary Force was lucky. The entire fleet was calm and passed through the dual-star system with a happy wish.

When the fleet was away from the binary star system, the Expeditionary Force re-lit up its engine, fine-tuned its route, and flew to the right of another small-mass red dwarf on the planned route.

Usually the brightness of red dwarfs is very weak and cannot be observed by the naked eye alone. This red dwarf is so dim that it is captured relatively clearly when the Expeditionary Force gathers with it for 4 light years.

The chromosphere activity of this red dwarf is not active. Although the eruption of its chromosphere can be observed in the x-ray band, it is not very obvious. As the scientific team speculated, she is a lonely star, and it is difficult to find any traces of massive celestial bodies in the star system.

There are three stars around the red dwarf. Among them, star a is 5.7 light-years away from it, star b is 8.6 light-years away, and star c is 11.4 light-years away. After comprehensive consideration, the scientific team of the Expeditionary Force chose to pass through the gap between her and star c.

As long as you pass through this red dwarf successfully, the Expeditionary Force will be out of the dangerous area and will be basically away from the control range of the unknown universe civilization.

As the target approached, the nerves of all members of the Expeditionary Force became increasingly tense.

"How far is it from the red dwarf now!" Yuan Shichen asked Sergei.

"There are 3.3 light years left!" Sergei replied loudly, "The fleet will pass through the right side of the Red Dwarf at a straight line of 2.7 light years."

"Okay! Increase your vigilance!!" It was already at the last moment, Yuan Shichen reminded more and more cautiously.

"Yes!! All Phantom Frigates have entered combat readiness!"

Yuan Shichen nodded and said nothing.

Then, he turned around and walked towards a simulated star map in the command center, and the red dwarf star was in his eyes.

On one side of the red dwarf is a bright spot, which represents the position of the expeditionary fleet. At about one light year in front of the fleet, several asteroids are being pulled from afar by the gravity of the red dwarf and are slowly orbiting.

"Through these asteroids?"

Yuan Shichen thought to himself that he always felt that these asteroids appeared abruptly and were reluctant to have close contact with them.

"If the route is adjusted now, the high-power engine will generate strong light and strong radiation."

At this moment, Yuan Shichen was also a little conflicted.

"No matter what, I hope I'm worried about it, just move forward like this." Yuan Shichen made a decision in his heart, "I hope to travel through this place of right and wrong as soon as possible."

Like Yuan Hashichen, everyone in the Expeditionary Force was praying that the fleet would successfully survive this last journey.

People are both excited and nervous, full of expectations, and are also tormented by the constant tension.

This time, the Expeditionary Force was unlucky.

According to Murphy's Law, if things are likely to go bad, no matter how small this possibility is, it will always happen.

People don’t want to go away. The more people worry, the less they can’t escape.
