Humanity is missing, luckily I have billions of clones-Chapter 319: Warning
"Ah... it hurts so much!
Chief Tom, please, can you be a little gentler...?"
Inside the massive scientific research spaceship, which Tom had specially modified into a micro-gravitational lens experiment base and a high-precision gravity laboratory, thousands of clones watched the large screen with serious expressions.
Just before, Tom had conducted a high-energy laser emission test. Now, the relevant data from this test was displayed on the large screen, entering the minds of the clones and Primal, where it began to be analyzed and interpreted by Primal and millions of brain clones.
In the experimental cabin, Blue’s massive pale green body trembled slightly, and the messages it sent were full of fear and pleading.
Tom sent a message, comforting it, "Just bear with it a little longer; it will be over soon. After this check, Chief Tom will let you stay in the high-pressure, high-temperature room for 6 hours, how about that?"
"Okay, okay."
Tom then turned around, sending an order to the scientific teams of the Bluetoth and Viller Race: "Increase power by another 60\%. The 11,656th high-energy laser bombardment test, prepare to begin! Countdown 3, 2, 1..."
After a day of experiments, Blue, who was almost completely ravaged, entered the high-temperature, high-gravity room to rest and recover. The Viller Race scientists also left the data analysis base while discussing today’s data.
The Viller Race science supervisor came before Vasilolo, the Viller Race Leader, and Heimerlan, the vice Leader, and gave a brief report: "Today’s experiments were all normal. The project leader gave us about 3% of the data for us to analyze."
Vasilolo emphasized, "We must be serious and meticulous, and we must make our race’s contribution to Human Civilization."
"Yes!"
As the science supervisor left, Vasilolo’s expression was heavy: "Alas, if only we could continue these experiments. Although I don’t understand science very well, I can see that these experimental data are very important for our civilization to advance to the Gravity level... It’s just a pity that in a few years, our fleet will reach Draco WT. Without Blue then, we won’t be able to conduct these experiments..."
Heimerlan scoffed inwardly but still maintained respect for Vasilolo on his face.
He always knew how to position himself.
"Leader, rest assured, our Human... will not lose such good experimental material. There will only be more."
"Oh?"
Vasilolo was stunned for a moment.
Heimerlan patiently explained, "This is precisely why I admire our civilization’s Head of State.
The supreme leader of a civilization should prioritize the maximization of civilization’s interests. In this process, so-called moral factors should not be considered.
Since this gravity creature is beneficial to our civilization’s scientific research, then as the Head of State, he should obviously consider how to maximize the benefits.
Our Head of State is clearly putting this principle into practice.
First, gain the trust of this gravity creature, using it as a stepping stone to gain the trust of the entire gravity creature population living on the Draco WT planet by sending it back home.
The gravity of the white dwarf is too immense; all our scientific research equipment and spaceships cannot approach it. At the same time, we have verified that high-intensity radiation and lasers can cause them great harm, even directly killing them.
Given this, to capture these gravity creatures, our only solution is to deceive them into leaving the white dwarf.
The Head of State’s next step will surely be to use Blue’s trust in us to gain the trust of the entire population. At that time, we will be able to deceive them into leaving the white dwarf, then capture them all, and obtain the greatest scientific research benefits."
Vasilolo was still a bit confused: "If that’s the case, it seems we shouldn’t be in a hurry to conduct experiments on Blue now. These experiments clearly cause it great pain and will weaken its trust in us."
Heimerlan smiled and shook his head: "This is what I admire most about the Head of State.
In this dark universe, a benevolent civilization that seeks nothing in return, asks for no benefits, and goes to great lengths to return its population members... do you believe that?" 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
"I don’t believe it."
"Exactly. The Head of State must conduct experiments on Blue now, even somewhat cruel ones. Because this is reasonable and will better win the trust of the gravity creature population, creating conditions for deceiving them into leaving the white dwarf later for a complete capture."
Vasilolo suddenly understood: "So that’s it! I understand! Our Head of State is truly brilliant and has everything planned out!"
Heimerlan smiled and nodded.
He was very sure that Human would do this. The reason was simple: if he were the Head of State of the civilization, he would do the same.
"Our Human Civilization, grow strong quickly! Only when civilization is powerful can our Viller Race people live better lives."
Heimerlan’s resolve to contribute his utmost effort, strength, and wisdom to the civilization’s power grew even stronger.
The micro-gravitational lens and high-precision gravity experiments on Blue continued day after day. The massive fleet also did not stop for a single day, constantly approaching Draco WT at an extremely high speed.
When they were still several light-years away from Draco WT, Tom’s fleet’s speed had to start decreasing.
The reason was simple: the fleet had now entered the planetary nebula remnants of Draco WT.
When a medium-mass star evolves to its final stage, a white dwarf is left behind in the stellar core, while the star’s outer material is ejected and then accelerated by stellar winds, forming a diffuse planetary nebula that spreads into cosmic space.
The velocity of these stellar materials can typically reach tens of kilometers per second, leading to a significantly higher material density in this region compared to the surrounding interstellar space.
With higher material density, collisions with the fleet become more frequent, and the load pressure on the energy shields becomes greater.
Thus, Tom reduced the fleet’s speed to approximately 60% of the speed of light, which lowered the impact to an acceptable range.
When the distance shortened to only about 3 light-years, Tom’s massive fleet began its formal deceleration maneuvers.
He planned to stop next to a rocky planet orbiting that white dwarf, both to send Blue home and to complete a resupply in this solar system.
Time quietly flowed, and the distance between the fleet and this white dwarf slowly shortened, now reduced to only 4 trillion kilometers.
But at this moment, a message from within the solar system unexpectedly arrived at the fleet and was received by Tom.
"Warning:
We are the Abyss Civilization. This solar system is our civilization’s temporary station.
Please, your civilization, leave this place immediately and do not stay here. If you continue to approach, our civilization will consider it an act of war against us, and at that time, we will have no choice but to take necessary measures.
Solemn warning: Leave immediately!"
