Chapter 410 - Monitoring Device (2/2)

“Do all aspects of its performance meet the requirements?”

“Certainly. The results we have attained constitute the coalescence of the finest of human intelligence.”

Chen Jin nodded. “That being the case, it’s time to officially take the first step. The days of the ‘planet otaku’ are almost coming to an end.”

So what was this “first step” that he was talking about?

The universe.

Naturally, he was talking about taking the first step into the universe, as humanity should not always remain in a single galaxy.

It was almost time to get out of the beginners’ town.

Of course, the cosmic environment was extremely dangerous. Without being fully prepared, rushing out like a headless fly, it was easy for one to bump into trouble and even lose one’s life.

In reality, there was no infinite revives.

Being cautious was the number one priority. Before going out, it was best for one to know what was going on around them. This was also the so-called approach of “collect intelligence, case the joint beforehand.”

The Ultimate Neutrino Plan had been going on for more than 50 years with the purpose of developing a remote monitoring device to be launched into the surrounding stellar systems, similar to that used by the Crystal Brainers. It allowed one to fathom the surrounding situation before making plans for the next step.

In the virtual game Galaxy Era, if players that focused on expansion wished to increase their territory, the first thing they would have to do was also monitoring, studying everything in their surroundings. Launching a monitoring device was the most common practice. Moreover, with the vastness of the universe, even if one were to launch a huge device with a diameter of more than ten meters to a certain galaxy colonized by a civilization, it would still be difficult for the other party to find out in time, as too many blind angles and neutral gaps exist. Even higher-level civilizations could hardly prevent some low-tech prying, such as disguising a monitoring device as a meteorite or the like. As long as it did not radiate a suspicious signal, it would basically fly under the radar.

In the almost infinitely large universe, no matter what civilization it might be, a monitoring device could easily become invisible.

However, in order for the monitoring to be effective, the device should be made as small as possible and as fast as possible. As for its information transmission rate, the quicker the better.

“Master, the fifth-generation neutrino is only the size of a marble, with a mass not exceeding 10 grams. It can be accelerated to 0.65 times the speed of light through the acceleration pipeline of the giant space particle collider, and could be launched towards nearby galaxies.”

An extremely small device appeared on the display.

“Despite the small size and lightweight nature of the neutrino, it is a unification of unimaginable technology. It is best to describe it as ‘mythical technology.’ Its internal quantum communication device has a maximum range of 50 light-years, an information transmission rate of 100 kilobytes per second, and a service life of over one hundred years.”

“With the fifth-generation neutrinos we manufacture, their volume still doesn’t allow them to interfere with the particle collider without being discovered, but their comprehensive technological level is not low. Moreover, there will be no need to send spy personnel specifically, as the neutrino can accomplish various kinds of work all by itself. The 50-light-year radius around planet Haierfa will soon become a familiar place to us.”

Figuratively, the tentacles of planet Haierfa would extend outward for fifty light-years.

“Nuwa, the ‘Blue Spaceship,’ which the survivors of Hairfa are on and which is heading towards the Walf Galaxy, is only 14 light-years away from us, right? So, with the speed of our neutrino monitors, could we catch up to them in about… 20 years?” said Chen Jin abruptly, having thought of something.

“Yes, master. It will only require 21.5 years.”

“Should the Blue Spaceship be arriving at that galaxy soon?” Chen Jin said while holding his chin.

“They should’ve arrived, as long as nothing unexpected has occurred.”

“Launch the neutrino monitors, then. Prioritize launching them to the Walf galaxy.”

“Yes master,” Nuwa said.

Immediately, in deep space, a giant electromagnetic acceleration device took aim at thousands of star systems and ejected batches of neutrino monitors like a pea shooter.
