Tom traversed a journey of hundreds of light-years, taking less than 130 years, including deceleration time.
When there were still hundreds of billions of kilometers left to reach the star, and the surrounding space was largely devoid of macroscopic celestial bodies, Tom had already released tens of billions of probes, forming a vast net to conduct a grid-like search of all space within this solar system.
This continued until the main fleet entered the solar system and docked around the nearest large planet.
At this moment, the enormous star was still in a relatively violent state.
Normally, given its mass and elemental composition, it should not have such a high surface temperature and such intense radiation.
Tom knew the reason.
Of course, it was because it had suffered a violent bombardment thousands of years ago.
