"Commander Kyle, something happened over there in the Hailan star system!"
"Hailan star system? If I remember correctly, the Ser people should be responsible, right?"
Kyle was slightly startled when he heard the adjutant's report, but after all, it was not far from the Flood Star System, so he still had some impressions.
"Yes, it's the Seers. They have a fleet stationed there."
"What happened?"
"Because the Ther fleet disappeared, I sent people to the Hailan star system to investigate. It turned out that all the Ther warships had been destroyed, even their war fortress."
"Huh? Who did it?"
"It's not clear yet, but all the 500 million humans on Hailan's side were taken away..."
Hearing this, Kyle's eyes became fierce.
It doesn’t take much thinking to know that it must have been done by humans.
Moreover, they do have the ability to do this. After all, the Seers are only a second-level elementary civilization. The human cruiser with shields and energy weapons alone is enough to defeat the Seers' second-level civilization warships.
.
"Besides Hailan, is there any other place where this happens?"
"Canberra also sent a report. Not long after its main fleet left, the Scorpion Pirates directly entered the star system and stole a large amount of Ai Luo metal mines."
"Only robbed the Ailuo metal mine?"
"Yes, they left immediately after robbing the Ailuo metal mine."
"..."
Kyle was stunned again.
He was not surprised by the behavior of the Scorpion Pirates. Rather, he had expected such a thing to happen.
After all, the main fleet has left, leaving only a dozen or twenty warships. Sooner or later, those large pirate groups will attack these places.
But what is the operation of just robbing the Ailuo metal mine?
Kyle knew about this kind of ore. After all, it was very rare, super rare, so rare that in the entire galaxy, there were less than ten planets with this kind of ore.
Logically speaking, such a rare resource must be of high value.
But in fact, no one wants this Ailuo metal mine, even if it is sold at a cabbage price.
Because he has no characteristics!
Therefore, Ailuo Metal Mine also has a nickname called...
The most scrap metal!
So the question arises, what is the purpose of the Scorpion Pirates snatching this thing?
This thing is really weird. Normally, Kyle would have figured it out, but now...
He doesn't have the energy!
"The Scorpion Pirates don't care about it, is there anything else?"
"No, there are only two problems at present!"
"You can put the matter on Canbera aside for now, but on Hailan's side, let me investigate thoroughly!"
"Yes, Commander!"
After the adjutant left, Kyle quickly started operating on the armrest of his captain's chair.
Immediately, a three-dimensional star map was projected in front of him, and on this star map.
In the star map, there are several green dots flashing slightly.
"This damn Nebula is really troublesome. It took several months to achieve this result!"
------
Yutian star system.
Inside the Star Battle Star.
"Captain, all systems of the Star have completed self-checks!"
"Chen Xiaoguang, take us out of the airport."
"It's the captain!"
In ten days, although I have not completely figured out this battleship, there is no problem with its basic control.
The rest is just a matter of getting familiar with it while using it.
After all, time was running out and Jiang Xingchen had no more time to waste.
Speaking of which, the control of a battle star is very different from that of a conventional battleship.
Take the helmsman as an example. Conventional battleships, whether they are frigates, destroyers, cruisers, battleships, etc., all have only one helmsman.
But Battle Star is different. It requires the cooperation of a main helmsman and two co-helmsmen, a total of three people, to control the battleship normally.
If we want to talk about the reason, it is that this battleship is too big and there are too many various propulsion devices on the ship.
Take the auxiliary thrusters used for attitude control of battleships. There are thousands of them in the entire ship.
One person simply cannot control it.
In fact, this is not only true for helmsmen, but also for other positions.
Therefore, the battle star's bridge is very large, ridiculously large.
And in this huge bridge, it is designed directly by department.
For example, the helmsman department consists of three people headed by Chen Xiaoguang.
For example, the weapons department consists of twelve people headed by Wang Feng.
Another example...
There are all kinds of departments, and when added up, there are hundreds of people. How can this bridge be not big?
And this is not even under full configuration.
According to the standard configuration of the Star, excluding the ship-borne combat vehicle department, the crew should be 5,875, but now there are only 3,000.
If you include the ship-borne combat vehicle department, pilots, ground crew, technicians and other personnel, when all are added up, the number of crew members on the ship will directly exceed 10,000.
"Captain, the departure of the Star has been completed."
"Target set, Angor star system, hyperspace engine activated!"
"Yes, Captain!"
Speaking of which, Chen Xiaoguang was still a little panicked at this moment.
Although he has simulated hyperspace navigation countless times in the past ten days, this is the first time he has actually practiced it.
Let alone him, no one in the entire galaxy except Jiang Xingchen has ever conducted hyperspace navigation.
However, Jiang Xingchen originally boarded an unmanned shuttle ship.
So, in a sense, what Chen Xiaoguang is doing at the moment is...
The first battleship hyperspace voyage in the galaxy.
Well, it's like the first flight of a fighter plane!
To say that I am not nervous at all would be a lie.
"Coordinate lock, Angel star system."
"Hyperdrive activated!"
"The magnetic field has been fixed, open the hyperspace window!"
A strange scene appeared.
In front of the Star, a blue spiral window suddenly formed.
The next moment, the entire battle star seemed to suddenly accelerate and rushed directly into it.
------
"So, multidimensional space is real?"
Looking out the porthole, colorful streams of light continued to pass around the battleship. Fu Wanting couldn't help but be a little obsessed with the gorgeous sight.
He even stood like this for several minutes without regaining consciousness.
"Of course it exists. Aren't you flying in it now?"
"But...why can we still maintain our three-dimensional form?"
"Okay, if you want to explain this, it will be more complicated. You can understand that the hyperspace engine creates a barrier that isolates all multi-dimensional space from the impact on the inside of the barrier."
"So, as long as the hyperspace engine does not malfunction, we can always fly in multidimensional space?"
"Theoretically this is the case, but it is not possible yet, because even the battle stars still use controllable fusion energy. Although it is tens of thousands of times more powerful than the controllable nuclear fusion of the home star era, it is absolutely
It cannot sustain the continuous operation of the hyperspace engine for too long."
Shaking his head, Jiang Xingchen explained.
He could imagine that the zero-point energy technology that was handed over to Liu Feng along with the hyperspace engine technology was definitely developed by his mother and was specifically used to solve the energy needs of the hyperspace engine.
But unfortunately, it may not be possible in a short time to truly realize that technology.
"Then how long is the maximum sustainable hyperspace time of the Star?"
"According to calculations, it can last up to 18 minutes and travel approximately 800 light years."
"That's enough!"
"It is indeed enough within the Milky Way, but if we want to go out of the Milky Way in the future, energy is an obstacle that cannot be circumvented."
Of course, humans will not need to leave the Milky Way in a short period of time.
After finishing speaking, Jiang Xingchen silently added something in his mind.
After all, if humans want to regain their mountains and rivers and then dominate the galaxy again, this cannot be accomplished within three to five years.
------
More than ten minutes later.
"The Star is about to exit hyperspace, 3 seconds countdown."
"3..."
"2..."
"1..."
"Report, the Star has completed its first hyperspace voyage and has now exited the multidimensional space."
"Determining location!"
"The determination is completed. Angel's third planet is 35,000 kilometers away. There is no deviation in coordinates!"
"Report, 1 cruiser, 3 destroyers, and 18 frigates were scanned, bearing 1-1-7, distance 9.7 light seconds."
"Report, all communication signal shielding has been completed!"
"Report..."
In the bridge, various reports continued to sound.
According to the plan, communication signal blocking was implemented as soon as the Star arrived here.
As the most powerful battle star in the Star Sea Federation, it is too easy to block the communications of a level three civilization.
Of course, after common communication methods are blocked, the other party can also use some backward short-distance communications, such as light signals, laser communications, etc., which cannot be blocked.
But this is not important. For Jiang Xingchen, as long as he can block his remote communication, it is enough.
"Chen Xiaoguang, start the sublight engine, maximum combat speed, come forward to meet us!"
"Yes, Captain!"
At the same time, about 3 million kilometers away.
Stationed here is a third-level civilization called the Kingdom of Wilton. Like other civilizations, most of the warships stationed here have been mobilized to the Death Nebula.
There are only 22 battleships left.
Although the enemy that suddenly appeared was only one battleship.
but...
The people of Wilton were completely frightened.
"Commander, this thing is the legendary battle star, the most powerful battleship ever built by mankind, right?"
Inside the cruiser, the adjutant pointed to the Star in the picture in disbelief and said in a trembling voice.
Battle Star!
Even though more than 400 years have passed, this name is still spread throughout the galaxy.
Of course, most of them are in the form of legends.
But this does not affect the instinctive fear of these low-level civilization people towards this kind of battleship.
"Quick, call the other party and confirm your identity!"
"Commander, all our communications are blocked and we can't make calls at all!"
"Then what are you waiting for? Surrender quickly. That is a battle star. Even if all the four major civilization garrisons in the floodlight star system are deployed, they will only be tortured, let alone us?"
"Commander, no, the communication is interfered with. Even if I want to send a surrender request, I can't do it at all..."
The communications officer was almost crying.
I also want to surrender, but I can't...
"Commander, the opponent attacked...from 8 light seconds away!"
Hearing this, the commander was stunned.
An attack from 8 light seconds away?
It's simply outrageous.
"Quick, notify all warships to take emergency evacuations!"
"commander..."
Seeing the innocent look on the correspondent's face, the commander reacted suddenly.
Communication is interrupted and cannot be used...
This order can’t even be spread!
A few seconds later, eight terrifying particle beams passed by and directly destroyed eight frigates.
In the bridge, everyone was stunned.
But soon, the commander finally reacted.
"Quickly, shut down the battleship engine and take all weapon systems offline, immediately, immediately!"
