Industry: Cthulhu

Chapter 95 Titan!

The voyage lasted almost two days before Fang Yan and his party arrived at the entrance to the second abyss.

If we just calculate the distance, this place is not too remote, but the reason why the gray area is called a gray area is not because the starry sky is really gray, but because it is desolate and sparsely populated.

During the entire nine-day voyage, the Sidewinder did not pass by even a single inhabited planet. Everywhere it looked, it was barren land.

It turned out that Brown inherited a very strong perception and navigation talent from the bloodline of his father, the rebel leader.

According to the experience and theories gained from previous research, Brown easily drove the Sidewinder through the space rift and entered the subspace called Abyss No. 2.

"We're in!" Brown whistled excitedly.

Rashid placed his palm on Brown's shoulder and said approvingly, "Well done! Next we can go to Andromeda. It's 26 million light years away, but we can reach it in just a few hours thanks to the Abyss. It's incredible."

"Since I was little, I've always dreamed of walking outside the Milky Way. I never thought my dream would come true before I get old. This way, I can die without regrets."

The atmosphere in the cabin was very cheerful. Everyone was looking forward to reaching Andromeda as soon as possible to see what the world outside the Milky Way looked like.

According to historical records in the hands of the destructionists, Andromeda was almost completely destroyed by the dual destruction of war and artificial intelligence.

As to whether artificial intelligence exists and whether it has occupied Andromeda, it is still a question of fact. After all, there are obvious signs of failed transition in the core area.

According to the basic knowledge of astronomy and space metrology, once a wormhole collapses, the objects inside it will either fall into dimensional trouble and be completely torn apart, or be thrown to any point in the universe by the space ejection phenomenon.

However, when Fang Yan and others were looking for the entrance to Andromeda with great anticipation, something unexpected happened to them.

In the display of the scanning system, an incredibly huge starship actually completely overlapped with the location of the space rift.

"This is actually a starship?"

"It seems to be bigger than a planet!" Brown blurted out.

On the side, Fang Yan and Rashid's expressions became solemn.

Fang Yan had seen such a huge starship before, in his dream world.

Judging from Rashid's reaction, it seems that he also knows the inside story.

"Let's go and take a look first." Fang Yan said in a deep voice.

……

A few hours later, the Sidewinder finally arrived at the location of the space rift according to the scanner's prompts.

However, everything was completely different from what they had imagined. The place where the space crack should have existed turned into a spiral space vortex, which kept spinning and causing the surrounding space to continue to distort.

Fortunately, the flow of the space vortex is uniform and regular, which does not destroy the overall structure of the abyss. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable. Even at the lowest level, it will cause the subspace where the abyss is located to collapse.

At the same time, the huge planet-like starship was facing the vortex. Its shape was like a pufferfish, but the size of this fish was even larger than the moon.

Ancient patterns, dark hull, and traces of weathering.

There is no doubt that this giant ship has existed for many, many epochs.

"This is the legendary Titan." Rashid said in a deep voice, his eyes shining with excitement and surprise.

"According to the oldest records of the Destroyers, Titan is an ancient galactic language meaning the God of Origin."

"I think you've all heard the rumor that the reason all intelligent life in the galaxy is almost identical to humans is because of spores."

"Spores created humans and were scattered across the galaxy, forming various human races on different planets."

"And according to legend, the spores were brought by this Titan."

"The Titans appeared in the core area, so the core area has the largest human population and the most advanced technology. In the peripheral areas and the gray area, due to distance, the human communities are becoming smaller and smaller." "When Marbury and I arrived in the core area, we were hesitant to confirm it because we didn't see the core area's most important landmark: the God of Origin, the Titan."

"I didn't expect that Titan is actually a starship, and someone has piloted it here!"

"Perhaps this is the so-called Lighthouse Project. Titan and what it represents are the beacon of the origin of human civilization."

"The remnants of the Galactic Empire, through unknown means, have activated the Titans and intend to use their power to destroy artificial intelligence."

"Look at the space rift leading to Andromeda. The reason it's like this is probably because of an attack by a Titan."

"Massive spatial distortion, tearing apart spatial rifts and turning them into vortices. Humans may not be able to do it, but Titan, the god of human origin, can definitely do it!"

After listening to Rashid's speculation, Brown became extremely excited and felt as if he had personally experienced the extraordinary ancient history of the galaxy.

However, Fang Yan's expression was very strange.

Because he had seen this kind of Titan ship before, and had seen it in his dreams. He even understood the facilities on it, the language used, and how to operate this behemoth.

Before coming to the Gray Zone, Fang Yan had fallen into a long dream that lasted for a week, and the Titan ship appeared in the final stage of that long dream.

After burning for billions of years, ancient stars rapidly approach the end of their lives.

The hot gas in the outer layer cools down in an instant, and the core of the star can no longer support its huge mass, and the gravitational pressure of the outer layer continues to squeeze the core.

Eventually, the star representing a civilization is swallowed by its own gravity, causing a catastrophic collapse.

At the moment of collapse, the density inside the star increases rapidly, the energy and temperature rise rapidly, and eventually causes a supernova explosion.

This explosion releases light brighter than the entire galaxy, ejecting the outer layers of the star at the speed of light, forming a magnificent nebula.

As time goes by, the core area continues to collapse until it forms an extremely large black hole.

As for the civilization that brought Fang Yan knowledge and power.

As the gamma-ray beam breaks through time and space, it rushes towards the planet where civilization is located at an unstoppable speed. The violent energy bombardment destroys the atmosphere, and the cosmic rays penetrate the surface with great intensity, quickly destroying all living things.

As organisms die, nitrogen oxides in the atmosphere increase rapidly, generating large amounts of nitric acid. Acid rain falls mercilessly, completely erasing all traces of civilization.

This is the whole process of the destruction of the civilization in Fang Yan’s dream.

Fang Yan vaguely remembered that in the final stage of the dream, there seemed to be some starships anchored far away from the stars, trying to escape the disaster by a method called random jump.

The so-called random jump is to activate all the energy inside the ship, opening an escape route that leads to an unknown destination, has not been explored, and cannot even ensure the stability of the wormhole, which may collapse at any time.

Even though they would be dead if they could enter a random jump and survive, the human instinct for survival in tragic moments would still make them try to escape. As for whether they could escape, only God knew.

Fang Yan clearly remembered that among those randomly jumped starships, there were several Titan battleships.

Because of the Titan's unique structure and huge hull, Fang Yan remembered it very clearly.

Can't go wrong.

This Titan is the one that escaped from the dream civilization!
No one expected that it would actually come to the Milky Way and bring two generations of civilization to the Milky Way!

Then, Fang Yan thought of something even more shocking.

If the galactic civilization was brought by the Titans, and the Titans came from the dream civilization.

Doesn’t that mean that I am also a descendant of the civilization in my dream?
sigh~
Thinking of this, Fang Yan felt a chill on his back.

A hidden and ancient thread connects everything together!
