What Zhao Changxing is most worried about is that he has encountered some kind of conspiracy against him. But fortunately, it doesn't seem like it now.
Of course, it is impossible to rule out that possibility 100%. But at least, the probability is greatly reduced.
This really seems to be just a coincidence.
After confirming this, everyone felt a little more relaxed.
The images of the war between super civilizations that we saw this time are undoubtedly of great value. But another obvious point is that at this stage, this value cannot be reflected at all.
Because people simply don't understand.
Perhaps when human civilization reaches a technological level that surpasses the Moyun Litar civilization, information on the battle patterns between advanced civilizations can be analyzed through this video.
Zhao Changxing did not discuss this matter, but said: "Now it seems that the kinetic energy we lost cannot be recovered. Then, the only way is to change the destination and change the target to the Lakai 9352 galaxy
."
People can only agree with this.
"But before that, we need to conduct a more detailed search of this war relic." Zhao Changxing changed the subject: "These materials, even if we can't analyze or copy them now, are still of great value to us.
Let’s salvage more, it will make up for our losses.”
At this stage, this is all we can do.
After this, a larger-scale salvage operation was launched immediately. The first batch of 100,000 soldiers who were awakened joined the operation together with those who were awake before.
Almost every spacecraft was dispatched. On the spacecraft, almost all detection equipment was activated, and all efforts were made to explore the surrounding environment. Under this situation, a large amount of "junk metal" was
People salvaged it.
Moreover, there is still a kind of extravagant hope in people's hearts.
If, among this debris, there are still some equipment that is still intact, even if it can barely operate, it is like the equipment that caused the Yuanhang spacecraft to lose most of its kinetic energy, or it may present to people something like reality.
It’s the same as ultra-high-definition projection equipment in ordinary environments. If you can get a few more of these things, you may not only be able to make up for all the losses, but also make some profits.
Faced with this situation, almost everyone who participated in the salvage operation burst out with great enthusiasm.
With the Yuanhang spacecraft as the core, nearly a thousand various types of spacecraft, including combat spacecraft, and small and medium-sized spacecraft carry various observation equipment and are busy shuttling between the vast space and the Yuanhang spacecraft all day long.
Whenever the action pays off, the people who return to the Voyage spaceship will be as happy as if they have won a big prize. If they return empty-handed, they will be full of bad luck and complain constantly.
Under people's enthusiasm, the cabin of the space shuttle ship designated as the temporary storage place for these war debris quickly became crowded. At the same time, scientists on the human side also tried to get in close contact with these debris.
After confirming that these wreckage posed no threat, larger-scale research operations were immediately launched.
Although everyone knows that it is basically impossible to research anything at this moment - if a personal communicator made with modern technology is given to those in the feudal era, even if the wise men of the whole world gather together, they will not be able to achieve anything.
Maybe find out what it is, or how to make it.
However, experts from the Academy of Human Sciences and the Academy of Military Sciences are still very interested in this kind of research.
Because people have made an amazing plan. And this plan has been approved by Zhao Changxing.
"We are wondering whether we can 'save' a spaceship on our own from the wreckage of these super-civilization spaceships of various shapes and sizes."
Facing Zhao Changxing's inquiry, Zhuang Yunwei spoke enthusiastically, his gray hair trembling: "We have tested this material, and even if we bombard it with our most advanced and most powerful electromagnetic gun shells, it cannot cause any damage to it.
What impact? Think about it, if we can use this material to make the shell of the spacecraft, then we can have a great advantage even in the face of attacks from level three civilizations..."
"I remember that we didn't seem to have the ability to process this material."
The properties of this material are beyond people's imagination. Even the most advanced metal processing equipment cannot cut them or bend them without destroying them.
When the super civilization made them, they seemed to be made in one piece.
"It doesn't matter." Zhuang Yunwei was still in high spirits: "We recorded the size and shape of each piece of debris. Without processing them, the computer system will make the best assembly plan for us. Some of them cannot be used.
The assembly holes of this kind of material can be filled with our materials.”
Obviously, most parts of a ship are made of that kind of material, and a small part is made of materials made by humans. This can still bring considerable improvements to the ship's protective power.
"Then do it."
Zhao Changxing made a decision: "Go and save a spaceship. This spaceship may become the ace battleship in our escort fleet in the future."
"yes."
As for whether the matter of "picking up the debris of advanced civilization spaceships to build one's own ace battleship" is detrimental to the dignity of human civilization, no one cares about it.
The cold universe cannot tolerate so many pretensions.
With this highest goal in mind, people became more enthusiastic about salvaging battlefield debris in this star field.
Up to now, people have searched all places within a radius of 1 million kilometers with the Yuanhang spacecraft as the center. At this time, the search scope is gradually expanding to the outside.
According to people's estimates, this entire piece of battlefield ruins probably maintains the same course and orbit, and its coverage radius may be as high as hundreds of millions of kilometers. In other words, these current harvests are most likely only a small part of this ruins.
.
It seems that the Yuanhang spacecraft will continue to stay here for some time.
On this day, the crew of the No. 46 combat spacecraft that had completed the repairs and passed the flight inspection once again entered the gravity-free cabin of the spacecraft and drove the combat spacecraft that had been temporarily converted into a search ship. Once again
Leaving the mothership and entering the vast space.
During this period, the crew of Spaceship 46 had not had good luck. They carried out 6 consecutive search missions, but all returned empty-handed. Seeing that the other spacecrafts had gained something, and then received the bonus awarded by the War Commission, the crew members were all
A little hot-eyed.
"This time, no matter what, I have to gain something before I can go back."
The commander of Spaceship 46 was thinking secretly.
The somewhat tedious and boring search time passed quickly. Seeing that it was almost time to return, this search still found nothing.
The mood of the crew members was a little low. Even the commander himself felt a little irritable.
At this moment, the spacecraft intelligence officer who had been waiting in front of the sky survey and observation equipment, who had been unwilling to participate in the search with his naked eyes, suddenly became energetic and shouted: "Come and see, what is this?"
"What?"
In the cabin of the weightless spaceship, the remaining crew members quickly floated over and saw something roughly spherical in shape and about twenty centimeters in diameter on the monitoring screen.
The data shows that this thing is only a few kilometers away from our own spacecraft at this moment.
The thing was completely black and very smooth on the outside, but it didn't seem to have a high albedo. If the searchlight hadn't happened to shine on it and the telescope hadn't been pointed at it, people wouldn't have been able to see it at all.
This made the commander a little confused. He turned his head and glanced at the screen of the radar survey equipment, and saw that the radar scan had clearly been aimed at that direction, but nothing was detected.
This seems to be something that can only be seen through visible light at close range, and electromagnetic waves in other bands seem to be unable to detect it at all.
This made the commander immediately interested.
The weirder something is, the higher its value may be. In particular, it seems to be a complete device, and no damage can be seen from the outside.
"Good job!" He clapped his palms suddenly: "Go, grab it!"
"yes!"
The spacecraft began to fly cautiously in the direction of the sphere. People did not dare to fly too fast, for fear that they would accidentally move the searchlight beam, and then they would not be able to find it.
But before the spacecraft had time to maneuver to that position, another piece of debris suddenly broke into people's field of vision.
The piece of debris was also not big, only about ten centimeters, very thin, like a piece of iron.
"Good things come in pairs!"
The commander became excited again.
There was no harvest before, but now there are two harvests.
The piece of iron moved slowly, and in just a moment, people were sure that it would collide with the sphere soon.
"Don't move for now."
The commander issued instructions: "We cannot determine the mass of these two objects, nor can we judge their orbits after the collision. Stay here for now, expand the search field of view, and wait until the new orbit is determined after the collision is over.
"
"yes."
So people began to wait quietly. It was not until a few minutes later that the iron piece finally hit the sphere.
The next moment, something unexpected happened.
At the moment of the collision, the sphere suddenly "collapsed". In people's minds, the "piece of iron" with extremely high performance that even a high-power electromagnetic gun cannot destroy is like a pile of mud.
It generally quickly wrapped around the collapsing sphere, and as the sphere collapsed, it also began to shrink.
At the same time, people were slightly horrified to see that the number representing the distance between the spacecraft they were riding on and the sphere was shrinking rapidly.
