[Nus]'s silence gradually calmed down the originally high atmosphere in the laboratory.

"Professor, is this question too difficult for those lost giant trees?"

Mao Zhengzhi asked with some concern: "As of now, no observation equipment for the universe has been found on the deserted stars."

"they……"

【Kukukan disappeared, right?】

A message appeared in the holographic projection, interrupting Mao Zhengzhi's words.

Next to the information is a comment provided by zero.

[Kukukan]: It is suspected to be the name of the main star [Nus].

Lu Yongchang pondered for a moment and asked again: [Do you know the reason why it disappeared?]

[Nus]'s response appeared soon.

【No, I don’t know.】

[The day when Kukukan disappeared, there was a great panic within the civilization.]

[But a huge disc that is not weaker than Kukukan soon appeared in the sky, which reduced the panic inside the civilization much less.]

[Although the living environment has changed, the large amount of energy it releases allows us to continue to survive.]

[However, recently I discovered a terrifying phenomenon - the energy released by the disc is gradually decreasing, and in order to maintain enough energy, I have to start hunting again.]

[This is also a major reason why I offended you at that time.]

Looking at the lines of text in the holographic projection, Lu Yongchang fell into deep thought.

This statement from [Nus] is actually easy to understand.

The so-called Kukukan did not rise, but it was actually the main star captured by that small black hole.

As for the huge disc that is not weaker than Kukukan, it is naturally a huge accretion disk formed by the remains of the main star.

The reason why the disk releases energy gradually decreases is also very simple - small black holes are swallowing up the matter in the accretion disk at an extremely fast speed.

According to calculations, in more than a thousand years, the accretion disk of this black hole will completely disappear.

And the creatures on the lost star cannot last for this time.

As the radiation intensity gradually decreases, the scale of the lost giant trees will continue to decline due to energy problems and will completely disappear after about two hundred years.

Lu Yongchang gently stroked his fingers and sent all the information related to the Lost Star to [Nus].

There was another silence that lasted for a long time.

【I see……】

[So we are doomed to perish, right?]

The message sent by [Nus] is very dull.

Looking at these two short messages, Lu Yongchang sighed again and gave his own answer.

【Yes.】

There was almost no pause, and [Nus]'s response appeared in front of everyone.

[If, I am willing to become an affiliated civilization of human civilization...]

【Can you help us resolve this crisis?】

A tiny discussion suddenly sounded in the laboratory.

Lu Yongchang also narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the words in the holographic projection with a serious expression.

To be honest, at the beginning, Lu Yongchang did have this idea.

In his opinion, the civilization of the lost giant trees has high development potential.

Especially the techniques they master in consciousness.

Whether it is the interconnection of consciousness or the integration of consciousness, everything is a bug-like ability.

In this case, it seems like a good choice to adopt it as an affiliated civilization.

But after truly understanding the lost giant tree, he hesitated.

"Professor, are you worried that the other party will not be under our control?" Mao Zhengzhi's voice came from the side.

Lu Yongchang nodded with a serious face.

"yes."

"From the performance just now, it can master the basic information we transmit at an extremely fast speed."

"This means that the research efficiency of cluster awareness is extremely terrifying."

"If it is adopted as an affiliated civilization, I am worried about what unexpected situations may occur in the future."

"Of course, that's just part of the reason."

"More important reasons...we don't have a good way to help them solve this crisis."

Hearing this, Mao Zhengzhi couldn't help but smile bitterly.

That's true.

Although today's human civilization cannot play stars in the palm of your hand like the Sweeper civilization and the Pastoral civilization.

But for a small planet, human civilization still has many means to use.

Without considering any elements, relying solely on stacking antimatter engines, they can also push the lost star out of their original orbit and take it to a suitable star system.

but……

This is obviously unrealistic.

Not to mention the navigation rate, crust movement and whether giant trees can survive, the huge amount of antimatter consumed by this process is not something that humans can bear today.

So, his fingers moved slightly and sent a line of message.

【Feel sorry.】

[You are too big, almost covering the entire lost star.]

[Even we cannot leave with the lost star while ensuring your safety.]

[Nus] seemed to have noticed the hidden meaning in this message. After a moment of silence, it sent out a new message again.

【Respected human civilization.】

[No need to take me away, just take that lucky child away.]

...

This proposal by [Nus] shocked all the academicians of the Academy of Sciences present.

Lu Yongchang is naturally one of them.

"Professor, this..."

Mao Zhengzhi's voice came from the side: "This may be a good solution."

"Just, Yi.com..."

Lu Yongchang couldn't help but fall into silence.

Mao Zhengzhi's worries are exactly what he is worried about.

For humans, only the fallen giant trees that form cluster consciousness can have the greatest research value.

Lu Yongchang hesitated for a moment and simply raised his doubts directly to [Nus].

[You don't have to worry about this problem.]

[I can provide you with a new Yi.com core.]

[It can guide that child to form a new network of ideas.]

[As for the issue of ethnic cultivation... this should not be too big for you, isn't it?]

Although he knew that the other party could not see his expression, Lu Yongchang still couldn't help but smile slightly awkwardly.

The person in the biology laboratory was not obtained through some legitimate means.

Especially when I thought of my behavior of coaxing it not long ago like a child.

The embarrassment on Lu Yongchang's face became even stronger.

He coughed twice to hide his embarrassment.

【Just do it as you said.】

[Nus] Without any hesitation, he sent a message of response directly.

[Thank you for your generosity, human civilization is a great civilization.]

[Wish your civilization to last forever in this universe.]

[From now on, the Nus civilization voluntarily becomes a human-affiliated civilization.]

[I will start creating new Yiwang core immediately.]
