"So, you suspect that the missing cloning base and battleship factory in Stanley were secretly moved by Arcadios?"
Looking at Jiang Xingchen and Lu Feng in the communication, Lu Weiming asked.
"Old man, if you don't believe me, don't you still believe in the stars?"
"What did you call me?"
"Uh, Commander, Commander Lu..."
Lu Feng was immediately frightened when his old man glared at him.
However, Lu Weiming had no time to pay attention to his grandson now, but looked at Jiang Xingchen again.
"Xingchen, are you sure about this?"
"I'm not sure, but it's very likely. At least I think we should send a fleet to Arcadios' territory to search."
Jiang Xingchen did not say anything serious, but suggested organizing a reconnaissance operation.
Lu Weiming agreed with this.
Regardless of whether the fact is as Jiang Xingchen guessed, at least Arcadios's absence is a fact. Even if the reason is different from Jiang Xingchen's speculation, it is definitely not a normal situation.
Therefore, it is very necessary to find out what is going on with her.
"Okay, I approved this mission, but considering that other fleets still have not deployed Zhurong-class warships, this reconnaissance operation is still left to your first fleet."
"Yes, Commander!"
------
Although the territory of Arcadios is far away from Sylvie.
But for the hyperspace engine, it only takes less than two days.
In order to find out the situation of Arcadios as soon as possible, Jiang Xingchen even dispatched five squadrons to participate in this reconnaissance operation.
However, a whole month has passed and still nothing has been discovered.
In an area spanning more than 400 light-years, no trace of Arcadios could be found despite turning over the sky.
Soon, this situation was reported to Jiang Xingchen.
"Xingchen, what is going on?"
"Arkadios is not coming towards us, but the fleet is anchored halfway, right?"
Lu Feng raised a very outrageous possibility.
However, it was immediately met with a blank stare from someone.
The fleet broke down in the middle of the road. I'm sorry you can imagine that.
There are no categories of ghost battleships, there is only one type!
In other words, there is no difference between the flagship and other battleships, whether it is the size of the ship, performance, etc.
Even if it was so outrageous and Arcadios's vehicle broke down halfway, she could still use another warship as the flagship. There would be no problem of a single ship failure affecting the entire fleet.
Unless she...
More than 1,600 warships were all damaged.
But is this possible?
It's impossible, okay!
"Okay, just a casual guess, I know this is unlikely..."
"Wanting, open the star map of Arcadios' territory and mark the locations searched by all fleets!"
Ignoring Lu Feng, Jiang Xingchen pondered for a moment and then said.
On the side, Fu Wanting, as the adjutant, immediately started to operate.
Soon, a three-dimensional star map was presented in the combat conference room.
At the same time, all areas that have been scouted in the past month have also been marked in green.
According to the markings on this star map, all star systems within its territory have been scouted and nothing has been missed.
So, do you really think too much?
Looking at the star map in front of him, Jiang Xingchen couldn't help but think in his heart.
But soon, his eyes were attracted by some special marks on the star map.
Those are wandering planets!
What is a wandering planet?
To put it simply and popularly, it means that it does not exist in a star system, but is a planet drifting in the void star sea.
In fact, wandering planets are not uncommon, they can be said to be everywhere.
But generally speaking, no civilization will develop wandering planets.
Because there is no star to provide it with energy, temperature, etc., it is basically impossible for any life to exist on the wandering planet, and it does not have the conditions for habitation.
Most of the wandering planets have surface temperatures that remain below zero or even a hundred degrees below zero.
Therefore, the wandering planet also has another name in the mouths of various civilizations...
Death Star!
Unless that day, a wandering planet approaches a star system and is captured by it.
After that, it will take anywhere from tens of thousands of years to hundreds of millions of years before there is even a slight possibility of igniting the fire of life.
If you want to say that I missed something, then this is probably a wandering planet.
If it were any other civilization, it would really be impossible.
After all, except for some special civilizations, most races cannot leave the living planet.
Even if you embark on interstellar travel, you still need to return to the living planet regularly for rest, otherwise it may have many uncontrollable negative effects on the spiritual level.
But ghosts are different. They use battleships as their home and go to the living planet just for hunting.
Otherwise, even if they never go to the living planet, it will not have any impact.
"Wanting, order Mu Qianshan to command all squadrons to search for those wandering planets in Arcadios territory."
"clear!"
Nodding, Fu Wanting immediately left the war conference room and went to make arrangements.
On the side, Lu Feng had a big mouth and a surprised look on his face.
"Xingchen, do you think that Arcadios and his ghosts are hiding on some wandering planet?"
"Yes, this is indeed a possibility, and the possibility is not small!"
"But from what I understand, Ghost's thoughts shouldn't be that deep, right?"
"Do you remember what we asked Stanley about the concept of three generations of ghosts before?"
After glancing at Lu Feng, Jiang Xingchen did not answer his question directly, but asked instead.
"You know, today's ghost soldiers are the first generation, and the ghost queen is the second generation. As for the third generation, there is currently only Stanley."
"That's right, what kind of Stanley wants the Ghost Queen under his command to compete with or even conquer each other in these 170,000 years?"
"Using our human method, it is to raise Gu, hoping that a certain ghost queen can become the third generation of ghosts through natural evolution."
"Well, that's right. Then think about it again, why does Stanley still have to spend more than 100,000 years to make it so complicated even though he already has the third-generation ghost transformation method? Logically speaking, he can't do it directly.
Is it enough to transform those ghost queens?"
"this..."
At this point, Lu Feng was also stunned for a moment.
That’s right, this doesn’t make sense, it doesn’t make sense at all!
Obviously it can be transformed directly, so why does it have to be so complicated or even take more than 100,000 years?
"Did the intelligence agency ask him this question?"
"No, but I asked yesterday!"
"What's the answer?"
After hearing Jiang Xingchen's words, Lu Feng instantly became interested.
"Because, according to Stanley, through transformation, the first and second generations are okay, but as for the third generation... he currently cannot achieve it completely through technology!"
"What? If that's the case, who does Stanley think he is?"
Lu Feng's eyes widened. At present, he was unable to transform the third generation ghost through technology.
Then where did he, the third generation ghost, come from?
Could it be that it evolved naturally?
"In his own words, he is a fake third-generation ghost."
"So...he has always hoped that a certain ghost queen could complete her natural evolution and become a true third-generation ghost."
"Afterwards, by studying the evolved Ghost Queen, Stanley may be able to find out the technology that can directly transform the third generation Ghost."
