Voyage of the Stars.

Chapter 1102 Crazy Shipbuilding
There are only five thousand years left.

Humanity must accomplish many things during this period of time. In addition to exploring the universe, human civilization must also complete some internal reforms.

First of all, there is the Star Alliance. Due to the relationship between the Divine Ju Civilization, only Level 6 civilizations are allowed to engage in great voyages, so the member civilizations within the Star Alliance definitely cannot be taken away, and the same goes for organizations under the Daya civilization.

The Galactic Heart Alliance had some unpleasantness with the Shenju Civilization because of this matter, but the Shenju Civilization’s attitude was very clear: those subordinate races must remain in the Milky Way, and they are not qualified now.

Humans support this.

After all, humans have no intention of depriving other races of their development potential. The Star Alliance was established because of the current situation. Moreover, the member civilizations of the Star Alliance actually have no racial talents, so there is really nothing to exploit. It doesn't matter whether we take them on the great voyage together or not.

On the contrary, keeping them in the Milky Way can also leave some backup forces for the Milky Way, allowing them to help look after the things they care about.

For example, humans think that the Nair civilization is pretty good, so keeping this Nair civilization may be the best explanation to them.

The same goes for the ogres. When humans brought them to the starry sky, they actually just wanted to turn them into their warriors. But later they encountered the Red Flame civilization, and the Red Flame people became cannon fodder.

Speaking of which, among the member civilizations of the Star Alliance, humans are actually quite nice to the Celestial Dog civilization, and they are also very loyal to humans.

It can be predicted that as long as the Celestial Dog civilization remains in the Milky Way, they will definitely regard themselves as the successors of human will.

As for the matter of cannon fodder soldiers after leaving the Red Flame Civilization behind, it is something that humans must change.

The reason why humans seek cannon fodder is because the casualties in interstellar wars are too great. As long as a battleship is destroyed, no one inside will survive, and such losses are often tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands.

The population of human civilization is indeed large today, but it is not meant to be consumed in this way.

Therefore, after releasing the Red Flame Civilization, humans must make changes to the fleet structure, and the interstellar government already has a plan for how to change it.

That is, the model is based on the consciousness-linked warships and supplemented by strong artificial intelligence unmanned warships. If there is no cannon fodder, then only strong artificial intelligence can be used.

However, unmanned warships are just a bonus in human plans. From then on, the human civilization fleet took the elite route, that is, learning from the Awakeners and specializing in the development of consciousness-linked warships.

Currently, scientists in the field of human spiritual consciousness have launched relevant research, which is to improve the strength of the human spirit in order to achieve the ultimate goal of one person, one ship.

Humans cannot currently achieve what the Awakener has done, where one individual is both a scientist and an engineer, as well as a highly skilled warrior, but we can work towards this. If we cannot drive a warship alone, we can set a small goal first, from driving with thousands of people to driving with just a few people.

Step by step.

After the elite troops strategy was determined, humans would not need to build so many useless fleets in the next five thousand years, and could devote their energy to the construction of consciousness-linked warships. Of course, more productivity would be invested in the construction of sub-civilization-level transport ships. The long voyage across the river system was no small matter, and of course the more transport ships there were, the more security there was. If it were not for the necessary military support, warships would be a huge burden that consumed resources.

Human civilization plans to use five thousand years to build a huge fleet of tens of billions of ships, eighty percent of which will be sub-civilization-level transport ships, and then fill them up before the great voyage.

In order to realize this plan, human civilization stopped directly at a location relatively close to the center of the Milky Way after leaving the Shield Arm, and then immediately began resource exploitation activities.

The environment near the center of the Milky Way is extremely harsh for low-level civilizations, but for level six civilizations, it is a treasure trove of resources.

There are a large number of stars here and the distances between them are very short. The dark matter deposits are also dense. There are also supermassive black holes such as the black hole at the center of the Milky Way. It is simply a natural resource extraction depot. Whatever resources you want, you can get them. Whether it is nuclear resources, antimatter, or negative matter, they can all be extracted, converted and stored here. It can be said that they are inexhaustible.

The Daya civilization also stopped in a nearby star field and carried out large-scale development and construction together with humans. Both civilizations were in urgent need of expanding the scale of their own civilizations.

A thousand years passed in a flash. After humans built a batch of new consciousness-linked warships here, they sent out several exploration fleets to various spiral arms of the Milky Way. On the one hand, they explored the Milky Way, and on the other hand, they observed and explored any new changes in the Milky Way. At the same time, they also collected information about other civilizations to see if they would encounter other level six civilizations.

Of course, there are also scientific research exploration teams that plan to use this time to explore previously discovered strange phenomena, such as the strange hydrogen molecular cloud.

The Lyra did not go there. It has been staying at the headquarters of human civilization.

Even though the Reapers have been slaughtered, it doesn't mean that the Milky Way has truly become a peaceful arena. We still need to be on guard.

One thousand years, two thousand years, three thousand years, four thousand years
What seems like a long time to primitive civilizations is just a blink of an eye to interstellar civilizations, and even not enough to those who plan fleet construction.

For four thousand years, human civilization has put almost all of its productivity into the construction of transport fleets and consciousness-linked warships, with the remaining resources being used to build unmanned warships and corresponding ship-borne strong artificial intelligence.

Thanks to the joint efforts of human civilization and the civilizations of the Star Alliance members, the size of the fleet has reached 80 billion. It is still a little short of the 100 billion target, but human civilization believes that it is almost there.

Among these 80 billion ships, there are only 3 million consciousness-linked warships, 17 million ordinary sub-civilization-class warships, and the rest are engineering ships, scientific research ships, residential ships, biosphere ships, and the largest group of transport ships.

It will take humans a thousand years to fill these transport ships with supplies. Finally, after dealing with some trivial matters, they will head to the location agreed upon by the major civilizations and set foot into the vast nothingness together.

There have been countless space broadcasts about the great voyage of the sixth-level civilization in the Milky Way, but only a few civilizations have responded. Now, only a thousand years have passed since the great voyage, and there are only seventeen sixth-level civilizations that have responded to the organization.

Among them, there are also some civilizations whose technology has regressed, and it is no exaggeration to say that they are mismatched.

But this is the current situation in the Milky Way.
