Chapter 346 News from Earth

After receiving post-disaster feedback and distress signals from the Fifth Space City Group, the First, Third and Tenth Falcon Fleet sailed for another seven months and finally arrived at the location of the Fifth Space City Group.

At the same time, the second, sixth, eighth, and ninth Falcon Fleet, and the 30-50th Deep Space Resource Development Fleet continued to fly at full speed toward the solar system at high speed.

Under the pressure of great survival, the Fifth Space City Group is still trying its best to carry out post-disaster self-rescue work. A large number of casualties, 62% of the space city structural units were damaged, the shelter of the frigate and the stable resource supplement of the deep space resource development fleet, and the balance of the closed ecosystem in most space cities has been broken, all of which will become a shackle that restricts the space city from continuing to carry out interstellar travel.

Fortunately, they finally reconnected with the interstellar immigration camp, regaining the confidence of the surviving population to overcome difficulties.

One and a half months after the first, third and tenth Falcon Frigates arrived in the fifth space city, the combined fleet of command ships led by Hara Kazuki, as well as 500 Falcon Frigates drawn from the Fourth Space City, and fifteen deep space resource development fleets also arrived one after another.

Under the command of Yuan Shichen, 500 escort warships will continue to fly forward to the solar system, and the fifteen deep space resource development fleets will stay to help the Fifteen Space City Group carry out post-disaster reconstruction work.

This time, the team leader welcomed Yuan Nai Chen and others was Zheng Yaqiong, deputy commander of the Fifth Space City Group. She is a senior commander of Chinese nationality and one of the few capable strong women in the federal government. She is in her early forties, tall and slightly fat.

"Hello, Commander-in-Chief, I'm sorry, our commander just died last month, so"

Zheng Yaqiong, deputy commander of Space City Group, first explained.

"I have heard that your commander was very brave in this crisis!" Yuan Shichen waved his hand and said regretfully, "Human civilization will surely remember every person who has made contributions to his job. He is a well-deserved hero!"

"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief!" Zheng Yaqiong replied.

"Take me to see the post-disaster situation in Space City."

"yes!"

So, under the leadership of Zheng Yaqiong and other officials, Yuan Shichen spent a whole week to carefully understand the current situation of the Fifth Space City Group, inspected the damaged core components, and visited the injured and sick people.

"The 5th Space City Group was hit harder than I thought!" Yuan Shichen told a group of major officials, "I understand the efforts you have made in the past few years, but I hope everyone can make a little more effort!"

"We will do our best!" everyone replied.

"How is the current preservation of the Deep Space Resource Development Fleet, which was originally affiliated to the Fifth Space City Group?" Yuan Shichen continued to ask.

"Originally, 32 deep space resource development fleets destroyed a total of 89%. After re-forming, only 4 fleets remained." Zheng Yaqiong, deputy commander of Space City Group, replied, "In the damaged fleet, in another year, there are six fleets that can be repaired and reorganized."

"Okay, including the 15 fleets drawn by the Fourth Space City Group, there will be a total of 25 deep space resource development fleets." Yuan Shichen nodded and said, "This place is located on the edge of the Orte Cloud. Compared to the empty space environment, it is barely a good place to rest and recuperate. Give you another 3 years to complete the Fifth Space City Group as soon as possible, and then return to the solar system as quickly as possible!"

"Finish the task resolutely!!" Everyone answered firmly.

Yuan Shichen knew very well that in three years, in this vast universe, with the sharp decline in human resources and a large number of injured and sick people need care, it is really a arduous task to complete 62% of the damaged space city structural units, and to re-establish and improve a stable closed ecosystem and survival system. However, the rescue work time is tight and there is no need to care about it. Everyone must work hard to move forward.

After saying goodbye to the Fifth Space City Group, Yuan Shichen continued to fly to the solar system.

The 500 Falcon frigates originally affiliated to the Fourth Space City Group and the command ship frigate (more than 100) where the original Shichen is located were reorganized to form a new command ship joint fleet.

At this time, the command ship joint fleet was 1.19 light years away from the earth, and the second, sixth, eighth, and ninth Falcon Fleet, and the 30-50th Deep Space Resource Development Fleet were 1.03 light years away from the earth.

Therefore, except for the space units left in the Fifth Space City Group, a total of 1,500 escort warships and 3,000 deep space resource development spacecraft were heading towards the solar system at the highest speed of nearly 0.9 times the speed of light, and heading towards the earth with the stars.

At this time, the command ship joint fleet had just entered the edge of the Alt Cloud.

The Ort Cloud is a sphere cloud surrounding the solar system, covered with many inactive comets, which are about 50,000 to 100,000 astronomical units away from the sun, with a maximum radius of about one light year.

It will take several months for the command ship joint fleet to cross the Ort Cloud. Looking outside the porthole, Yuan Shichen couldn't help but remember that this attachment was the location of the 37th Deep Space Resource Development Fleet B team that discovered the existence of unknown cosmic civilization ruins.

"The traces left by unknown universe civilization" Yuan Shichen murmured to himself.

"Who is this unknown cosmic civilization that has been to the edge of the solar system, or even the solar system?"

"Are they the Creator? When have they been?"

That layer of worry that never lingers has once again faintly appeared in Yuan Shichen's heart.

Just as Yuan Shichen was deeply in thought, suddenly, a burst of rapid steps ran towards him.

"Commander-in-Chief, I received the message! I received the message!"

A young scientist reported to Harashi Chen with great excitement.

"What news?" Yuan Shichen came back to his senses and asked.

“News from Earth!!”

The young scientist trotted all the way but had not recovered yet.

"The news from the earth! How is the earth?" Yuan Shichen asked.

"Earth, Earth"

"Take it to me!"

The young scientist said halfway through panting, and was interrupted by Yuan Shichen.

"Okay! Commander-in-Chief!"

The young scientist quickly handed over the information.

Yuan Shichen opened the message and his brows immediately frowned.

Heavy casualties!!!

It can be said that the ill-fated Earth won the lottery. The 52.1% of the Earth's area hit by a gamma ray burst is exactly the densest area of ​​[Geocentric cities]. Nearly 3,000 [Geocentric cities], less than 1,000 of them were able to survive in the end.

This means that in addition to the 4 billion people left behind on the surface, more than 2 billion people in underground cities died in this time.
