Building a ship takes a lot of time, let alone making thousands of ships to transport billions of people. Therefore, in the end, all countries, large and small, agreed to accept the second offer. They thought they could just take one of the ships apart and research it if they wanted to build their own in the future. To send an answer to the offer from the aliens, their ancestors did not need to do complicated things. The message contained instructions on how to transmit certain signals into space. Signals whose contents were requests for help so that the aliens send giant ships that can transport the inhabitants of the old world to a new, safer world.

Those who believed that disaster would really come then flocked into the ship. Not everyone believes. In fact, the number of unbelievers is greater than the number of believers. Shannchyuan doesn't know what will happen to those who decide not to leave the old world. Furthermore, Shannchyuan didn't know whether the cataclysm that was foretold to happen actually happened to the old world or not.

After traveling through space for thousands of years, the giant ships finally arrived in a new world. During the voyage, there were no creatures from advanced civilizations who steered the vessel. All the ships were equipped with artificial intelligence. It meant the ships moved by themselves. If it felt necessary, even the vessel could change its course.

So, from the past until now, they never knew the physical form of the alien race that had helped them. Several speculations and theories were circulating in the community. There's speculation that was outright inconsequential, but there's also a theory that still seemed likely to be considered. But Shannchyuan never really took the speculations about it seriously. He really wanted to know what the aliens looked like, but what he really wanted to know more was what caused the aliens to be willing to help their ancestors.

Therefore, basically, they were a primitive society that was not technologically capable of making major migrations across outer space. It could be said that the success of their ancestors on this extraordinary journey was a form of miracle. A miracle like that was almost certainly impossible to repeat.

Because the second option was chosen, there was no technology transfer there. The alien race only told their ancestors how to run some of the machines on the ships. So their ancestors were just machine operators. They didn't know what technology they were using. 

After arriving in this new world, the situation was not much different. People were not interested in developing new technology. So, for thousands of years living in the new world, they only used the same technology their ancestors used when they left the old world.

Some people, who refuse to stagnate, tried to strip objects from the ship for them to study. But such attempts usually end in failure. Colony ships that brought their ancestors to the new world, later, became archaeological remains. The status was the same as the ancient buildings. The ships were heavily guarded. Anyone was forbidden to tamper with the ships. People caught taking something from the ancient ships could be sentenced to death.

There was indeed a small group of people who, in some way, managed to get in and steal some equipment from the ships. However, no one dared to openly admit to discovering new technology obtained from the results of researching objects on those ships. Because it was tantamount to admitting that they had broken the law. Shannchyuan heard rumors that the government had tracked down the people. Rumors also said that the government later confiscated the results of the people's research. In fact, furthermore, the government was also secretly reviewing the results of the confiscation in the form of research. Therefore, Shannchyuan suspected that the items in the package they received were a small part of technological developments based on technological research seized by the government.
