Life Simulation: Let the Female Swordsman Regret for the Rest of His Life - Chapter 232

#232: The journey to the stars begins

Since ancient times.

For the stars in the night sky.

For the twinkling stars that can only be watched and cannot be touched.

Humans have great curiosity.

Whether it is the praise of poetry or the attribution of meaning, all the wonderful descriptions that can be thought of have been crowned on the starry sky by people.

Starlight pours down.

Shining in the wind.

In countless quiet nights, people frequently look up and imagine the real splendor of the stars above their heads.

Until people’s technology is advanced enough and they really set foot in the starry sky, they find that the so-called beauty only exists in their own imagination.

Potholes and bumps are the norm of the universe.

Now, Xu Xi is experiencing this kind of destruction and facing the reality of the universe.

It is cold and dead, and the darkness of nothingness.

[Simulation year 16, you are 35 years old, and Elly has been with you for 14 years]

[Since the end of the Intelligent Machine War, you have continued to study starship technology and plunder resources on the planet. Finally, you have produced a mighty starship army]

[Your fleet covers the sky]

[Your weapons cover the stars]

[Main battleships, frigates, reconnaissance ships, logistics ships, ecological living ships…]

[To ensure the safety of interstellar navigation, you have fully upgraded the interstellar fleet based on what you can think of]

[At the same time, to avoid the boredom of interstellar navigation, you have specially built an ecological ship, the interior of which is an automated green environment, warm and livable, which can effectively reduce the loneliness of the dark starry sky]

[You board the deck of the ecological starship, overlooking the land where you have lived for more than ten years, and officially set off for the starry sea]

“Elly, let’s go.”

“Yes, master.”

The sky is clear and cloudless.

The giant steel-cast ship floats up in a dense formation, and circles of deep red halos flash at a high frequency. That is the external sign of the activation of the anti-gravity system.

Xu Xi stood on the deck of the starship.

Whether it was the high-altitude wind or other harassment, it was blocked by the thick energy barrier.

He witnessed it with his own eyes.

The heavy metal creation floated to the sea of ​​stars.

From majestic to tiny, quietly sailing towards the dark starry sky.

The vastness of the universe is difficult to describe in words, but if you have to describe it, it is probably a dream that will never end.

It is ridiculously big.

It is creepy black.

It has both magnificent waves and empty desolation.

Only by facing the universe can you deeply understand your own insignificance.

“Ailei, how do you feel?” In the real world, Xu Xi has already personally experienced the starry sky that is both magnificent and dark. He looked at the servitor beside him, curious about Ai Lei’s feelings.

“Feeling…”

Ai Lei stared at the sea of ​​stars in the universe for a moment.

Say your answer.

“It doesn’t look as good as the master,” she said so, with a serious and calm expression.

[The star-chasing journey begins here]

[The dark universe contains many unknowns, which are dangerous but also have endless possibilities]

[You have a hunch that this journey to the starry sky will not be peaceful. Even if you don’t encounter any enemies, the harsh environment of the universe alone is enough to cause a terrifying threat]

[But this is a necessary step for the development of civilization]

[The planet where the Federation is located has very limited resources and can no longer meet your needs]

[If you want to develop technology and explore more truths, the only way is to set foot in the universe]

[You once asked Elle if she wanted to stay on the Federation planet. In that case, Elle could be free from danger and stay on the planet. =Develop steadily on the road]

[Aile rejected the proposal]

[“My machine soul, my data, everything I have, only exists for you.”]

[Absolute loyalty, absolute following]

[The machine servant expressed her feelings to you, everything she has was born because of you, so she will accompany you until the machine soul burns out, even if there are countless dangers ahead]

[The galaxy is like a picture, the Milky Way rolls]

[Your cosmic career officially begins]

[You live in the ecological starship every day, working hard to study the engine technology of the starship, hoping to develop superluminal navigation as soon as possible. Only in this way can you sail to the starry sea at a faster speed]

[Ding——]

[Engine is happy Happy, Ailei is unhappy]

[Ding——]

[The engine is happy, Ailei is unhappy]

[One day, after finishing your scientific research work, you looked at the instant cube in front of you and fell into a long period of contemplation]

“Aile.”

“Yes, Ailei is very unhappy to serve you.”

“…”

[The joy of the machine soul has always been shown on her face. Her laughter and her sorrow may not be as vivid as those of humans, but they are unreserved]

[You study starship technology again]

[Only this time, you give Ailei more tasks]

[Your attention and your trust make the machine servant happy from the bottom of his heart]

[Your meals have returned to their former abundance ]

[One day, during your break after dinner, you unexpectedly saw Ailei flipping through a book. You observed Ailei’s serious expression and felt very relieved]

[You think that the servitor is not only loyal, but also studious and has a brilliant future]

[Simulated 17th year, you are 36 years old, and Ailei has been with you for 15 years]

[In the second year of sailing to the universe, your life has hardly changed. You still live on the ecological starship, studying technology while living a peaceful daily life with Ailei]

[There is no change, no waves in the daily life, with a little boredom]

[But you don’t feel bored]

[You are not alone, Ailei is always by your side]

“Master, are there really other civilizations in the universe?”

“Yes, they do.”

The universe is lonely.

Dim and lightless.

Occasionally, the robot servant would stare at the outside world and ask Xu Xi some questions, wondering about the true appearance of the universe.

But this curiosity did not last long.

Silver and blue, with calm eyes.

After learning a little about the nature of the universe, the robot servant returned to his usual indifferent appearance, wearing a maid outfit and pouring tea for Xu Xi.

It’s not that he is not interested in the universe.

But there are more important things in front of him.

Even if it is a machine, even if it is cold metal, he will know how to hold on to the truly precious things.

…

[You and the robot servant continue to travel far away]

[The universe is so vast that even if the starship flies at a very fast speed, from the perspective of the naked eye, it is still the same as staying in the same place]

[You paused the voyage and found a gas planet to replenish the energy and materials of the starship group]

[In the eighteenth year of simulation, you are 37 years old, and it has been 16 years since Ai Lei accompanied you]

[The starship cluster set off again]

[This year, you successfully improved the performance of the original engine, and your travel speed is faster]

[Meteorites fly from both sides, and stars shine on the steel hull]

[The dark and cold starry sky is your unchanging background for many years. You spend year after year in this dead silence]

[Ai Lei’s machine soul continues to be happy…]

[In the 20th year of simulation, you are 39 years old, and it has been 18 years since Ai Lei accompanied you]

[Ai Lei has changed a little]
