Chapter 1260: The Escape Plan of Lin Ke Chapter 1260: The Escape Plan of Lin Ke “Drac and Recklaz could easily reach the outer planets,” Lin Ke nodded, then shook his head, “But I don’t think they would bother chasing after us small fries. In the eyes of these big shots, we’re nothing more than insignificant ants, not worth pursuing.”
“What if they really do chase after us?” Su Yu pressed.
“Then there is nothing I can do, I’d have to risk leaving the Solar System for the nearest star. After gathering enough resources from that star, we’ll have to figure out how to reach the closest civilization.”
Lin Ke stretched out his hand toward a direction in the sky.
He spoke slowly, “About 4 light-years in that direction is a star, the closest one to your Blue Star.”
Then he pointed in another direction, “About 20 light-years away in this direction there’s another star, near which there’s a civilization on one of its planets. We, the Holy Silver Man, have nad it ‘Gretta,’ a 1.5-level civilization.”
“20 light-years! Good heavens! How long will that take?!” Su Yu was startled by Lin Ke’s words.
20 light-years! Even at the speed of light, it would take 20 years.
Their God Level Peak Powerhouses couldn’t co close to the speed of light; their fastest speed while flying in vacuum (with sufficient Spiritual Energy) was only 3,400,000 ters per second, which is about one-hundredth of the speed of light.
Even travelling at one-hundredth the speed of light, it would take 2000 years to arrive!
2000 years! Could they really survive the journey alive?
…
Lin Ke hadn’t calculated the travel ti in detail just now, but now he carefully thought it over in his heart and was imdiately startled as well!
2000 years of flight!
Not to ntion lifespan, from where would he get all that Spiritual Energy needed for the trip?
So, he could only muster a wry smile and said to Su Yu with a chuckle, “Upon closer calculation, flying to Gretta truly isn’t feasible… But it doesn’t matter. Even if we can’t make it to Gretta, we still carry the communication terminal of the hymn with us.
If the hymn functions are restored one day and the Saint Channel Company resus operations, we would be able to contact them to take us away. As long as we aren’t caught by the Dark Energy Rebel Army, everything should be alright.”
“Ah!” Su Yu let out a long sigh.
Listening to Lin Ke’s plan, he had to admit, it indeed sounded like a good plan.
If Emperor Xin were to fall, this might very well be their only way out—staying on Blue Star was a certain dead end.
Should the civilization of Blue Star also adopt such a strategy to preserve so seeds of humanity?
Lin Ke spoke aptly, “mbers of Blue Star, is there anyone willing to join our escape plan? If so, we can leave together for mutual support.
Of course, due to the extre danger of this trip, only those of God Level or above can accompany us, so that we don’t hold each other back.”
Lin Ke had good emotional intelligence. He said “don’t hold each other back” but what he ant was, “don’t hold us back.”
All of the God Level individuals from Blue Star were present, Su Yu, Pri Minister Cao Cao, Emperor Qin Shi Huang, Zhong Feng, Xu Xiaotian, Mr. ng, including Cat Morning Star—the necessary parties had gathered.
But upon hearing Lin Ke’s words, everyone hesitated.
“This…” A number of Blue Star God Level individuals looked at each other.
Deserters? Honestly, no God Level present wanted to be deserters.
Yet, if not for this, how would they preserve humanity’s fla?
At that mont, Pri Minister Cao Cao stood out.
He was the first to speak with seriousness, “First, we must clarify one thing—is human civilization really on the verge of extinction?”
“This… this is almost certain.” Su Yu frowned as he carefully responded, “The survival of Blue Star civilization hinges on whether Emperor Xin can co out alive from the Phobos Waveform Space. But currently, the chances of Emperor Xin surviving are less than one percent…”
“Allow to interrupt, it’s less than one in ten thousand,” Lin Ke interjected. “To be honest, I think even one in ten thousand is generous.”
“Alright, one in ten thousand.” Su Yu pursed his lips.
He looked at Pri Minister Cao Cao, “If we disregard the extrely unlikely scenario, then it seems our Blue Star civilization is about to be destroyed, and no one of us can stop this overwhelming tide.”
“Indeed.” Chairman Hu Jing joined the conversation solemnly, “As the Chairman, and from the perspective of being responsible for our civilization, I would choose the first option. I’d prefer to send a group of people away with the seeds of humanity, as for the rest…”
Chairman Hu Jing paused there, not continuing any further.
Pri Minister Cao Cao nodded and said, “Then let’s send Su Yu, Xu Xiaotian, Zhong Feng, and ng Lianggu out.
We can also recruit a group of young people to enter a state of suspended animation; we’ll carry them in special spatial equipnt. That might allow us to preserve human seeds to the greatest extent possible.”
“Send us out?” The four of them, including Su Yu, were surprised at the sa ti.
Although it seed like the best option at the mont, Su Yu didn’t think so.
The thought of spending many years in the barren space made his spine chill.
Rather than that, he’d prefer to share the fate of Blue Star and have everyone et their end together!
Pri Minister Cao Cao looked at Emperor Qin Shi Huang and smiled, “Your Majesty Ying Zheng, would you like to join Lin Ke on an excursion into outer space? If you’re interested, you can go as well.”
“? I’ll have to pass.” Emperor Qin Shi Huang waved his sleeve, speaking implicitly with desolation, “Human civilization is on the brink of extinction; what’s the point of going out there? I’d rather stay and accompany human civilization in its last monts.”
Pri Minister Cao Cao opened his mouth to speak.
Before he could say anything, he heard Su Yu’s earnest voice, “I won’t go either, let Zhong Feng and the others go. I want to stay and do what I can in the end for those who aren’t qualified to leave.”
To be honest, Su Yu didn’t want to live a life of hiding and fleeing just to preserve humanity’s fla. Even though he knew it was noble, he dreaded that way of life.
In a flash, Su Yu had already decided what he would do in the last month of his life.
Sending Zhong Feng and the others away with the seeds could be terd the “Seed Plan.”
Yet, the vast majority of people definitely couldn’t take part in the “Seed Plan,” and Zhong Feng and the others could at most take a couple hundred young people.
During the remaining days, Su Yu intended to help those who couldn’t participate in the “Seed Plan” but still wanted to survive do so as much as possible.
According to the Dark Energy Rebel Army records, after a star was sacrificed, there were often so “fish that slipped through the net.” Su Yu decided to make sure there were as many such “fish” as possible.
Although these “fish” might not be able to shoulder the responsibility of rebuilding civilization, having more of them was still sothing.
